Discover the secrets of ancient wisdom as we weave through the art of spinning goat hair, an age-old practice rich with spiritual significance. We are drawing parallels between the meticulous process performed by wise-hearted women and how we should engage with our spiritual journeys. They spun the hair while it was still on the goats, a testament to their profound skill and understanding, and we explore how this reflects our need to remain connected to our life source for true vitality.

As the conversation unfolds, prepare to be captivated by the notion that our lives mirror the sheen of goat hair, vibrant and full of luster when connected to our spiritual roots. We discuss the importance of maintaining our connection to traditions and divine wisdom to operate at our highest potential. Join us in this thought-provoking episode; a seemingly simple task opens up profound perspectives on life intertwined with purpose and spirituality.

Humans are a lot like goat hair, because surely you're aware of the hula nash mashe na salib on aisana be kachma, tabu wa zaiizm, that Taira tells us that all of the women whose hearts inspired them stepped forward with brilliant kachma and they spun the goat hair to prepare it for use in the Meshkan.

00:00:18.804 --> 00:00:30.611
It takes kachma and while it may seem like a job that can be pretty easily learned spinning some goat hair, they got to have a spinning for goat hair for dummies book.

00:00:30.611 --> 00:00:32.063
But it took special kachma.

00:00:32.063 --> 00:00:57.134
In this situation where, as she explains to us because saida gammar and shabbat 99, that they actually had to spin the goat hair while it was still connected to the animal, that took a fair amount of kachma and some real adeptness and skill and the Svarnoan trying to decipher and uncode why it is that specifically to make the goat hair proper for use in the Meshkan and had to be done this way.

00:00:57.134 --> 00:01:11.724
That's what Svarno tells us, because when goat hair is disconnected, when it's disengaged from its life source, it begins to lose its beautiful appearance and to be ripe and proper and roi.

00:01:11.765 --> 00:01:21.108
For the Meshkan we only need goat hair, it must be goat hair that's still attached to its life source and perhaps the same can be said for human beings.

00:01:21.108 --> 00:01:40.852
It's got to be true, because the Apostle tells us what atem and those of you that are to vacant bashem, alokeichem, that are clinging and connecting to the Almighty haim, kulchem hayom, you, if you are currently plugged in to Hashem, then you're totally alive.

00:01:40.852 --> 00:01:44.527
But the second that we unplug we get distracted.

00:01:44.527 --> 00:01:52.950
We are running on low power mode, low battery mode, half capacity, and our beauty goes down just like goat hair.

00:01:52.950 --> 00:02:05.168
When we stay connected to our source, to the Rebbe, to the Gemara, to the Shabbos, to the Chesed, to Daftin, to Akhadash Baruch, who are talking to Tati.

00:02:05.168 --> 00:02:09.901
That's how we function at full capacity and that's how we keep our beauty.
