SIT DOWN


Hello soon-to-be legal stickylovebuns,

Excerpt from the book, "The Mystery of Love" by
Marc Gafni:

"SIT DOWN"

"Teachers taught the Zoharic masters can take us home, but only if they teach from the inside. It is reported that Ziv Hirsch of Zhitomir, a charismatic nineteenth-century mystical master, would occasionally in the middle of his speech sit down, abruptly ending his address in midthought.

When pressed for an explanation he responded, "My master - the Maggid of Mezeritch - taught me, 'If when giving sicha [spiritual lesson] you can hear yourself talking, sit down.'"

"In A Moveable Feast, Hemingway remarks on the difference between his telling a story and the story telling itself. When he begins to tell the story, he knows it is time to quit for the day. This is a true echo of the temple tradition. Sit down when you can hear yourself speak."

If I see either one of you sit down in the midst of exchanging vows on Sunday, we will know.
