SET LIST PURIM MMM PARSHA TETZAVE 2021 FEB 2021
THE POETRY OF PURIM PARADOX
Dear Purim bliss
seekers------seekers of
timelessness.....effervescent reachers into the not
knowing-ness----inside out and outside in entreaters of the voice inside that
will reveal to you the reason why-----bubbly mind, unsteady gait—--perhaps
the only way to relate to the inner sanctums of Atik Yomin----these are
places you've never been-------yet they're as familiar to you as the back of
your hand -----Purim was an attempt to trap us in a corner of time and in
a perpetual exiled land ...but we are above and beyond space and
time.....so ''wipe me out of Your book,'' said the self sacrificial
Tsadik –if that's what it would take to set our people free-----and the Lord
said that you have revealed the existential recipe ---- and life's
perpetual masquerade----a surrealistic dance in a corner of reality ---a
serious romance with the mystique of knowing that we don't really know ------no
matter deep we go ------to the contrary ------the deepness only reveals to
us---- that we are just beginning to see--- that we haven't seen anything
yet-----as we are launched into a rendezvous with infinite self reflective fate
---------and the wise ones sit at the gates of the paradoxical sacred spaces
---gently inviting in one and all in this festival of paradoxical holiness
A PURIM PRAYER
Ribbono Shel Olam
Master of the Universe
I sit here in your awesome presence
On this Awesome day
The more that I contemplate
The magnificent Grace
Of your Holy Face
The More I see you In Your Hiding
All over the Place
On this sublime day
It's not us who come to your habitation
It is You Who comes to visit us
In the midst of our celebration
To those with eyes to see
You show yourself in every aspect
Of our reality
At the beginning and end of words
In all the sights we see
And all the sounds that are heard
In the smiles of beautiful babies
In the yesses no-s and maybes
Of those we reach out to
It's really all You
And that's all that I want to do
All day long
Is to play Hide and seek with You
It's the only thing that rings true
There is nothing else
That I'd rather do
There is no-one else in my World but You
And just before I sink into
Unconsciousness
I do want You to know this;
I want to say thank You
For every breath that you allow me to breathe
For every sight that You allow me to see
For every feeling that You allow me to feel
For coming through for me every time that I put my trust in
thee
WHAT IS PURIM??
[an MMM spontaneous perpective]
***Purim is a very holy day.
***Purim is lemalah, lemalah
mi derech hatevah Above, Above nature ***Purim comes
after all the hope is lost.
***Purim is Atik Yamin.
Purim is a shift in making ourselves, into a whole new
way of being.
Purim is the parting of the red sea.
Purim is making things happen that otherwise
couldn’t be.
Purim is Esther saying kaasher avaditi avaditi,
if I am lost, I am lost, I give up my reality,
I give up this world and the next world.
Purim is macheni …. Moshe Rabeynu saying, wipe me out,
wipe me out
if you are not going to forgive these people,
blot me out of Your book.
*** Purim is chezkiyahu
Hamelech.[King Ezekiel]
Saying that though there is absolutely no hope in this
situation
Even if there is a sharp sword at the throat of a
person
ready to put them away,
We don’t stop hoping for a better day.
***Purim is a time that is so high,
so deep,
that even when all of the other hagim [Holidays]
and all the other sepharim [Holy Books]
will no longer be around—Purim will be around.
***Purim is like Yom, Kipurim
or rather—
Yom Kippurim is like Purim
[Yom {ki= like} Purim]
These 2 very different holy of holy days
converge;
Just like we were forgiven
and received the Torah on Yom Kipur
so too on Purim.
On the night following Yom Kipur
we have a big seudah [meal] following a fast day
before the day,of Purim
we have a fast before the big seudah on Purim day
***Purim is renewed receiving of
the Torah out of love ...
When a person says that I received the Torah out of
love
as we did and do on Purim, ,
all that we did wrong
in the past
becomes merit, becomes light, becomes joy, becomes a
place for them to be
And they completely change reality.
***Purim is reading Megilat
Esther,
revealing the hidden dimension,....
Purim is opening up those hidden dimensions
that wouldn’t otherwise have a way to reveal
themselves,
to show themselves.
In the midst of a hidden reality,
the light peeks in and we catch it.
If you are open
if you're completely mevutal- in a selfless place of
receiving –
That light opens up for you a whole new reality.
A place above above nature,
a place of atik yamin,
***Purim is a place of kaasher avadati, avadati—
a A place of if i'm lost . i'm lost
A place where a person never gives up,
no matter what the situation ,
whatever will be
, he\ she knows there is a little portal
beyond that place,
a portal of a miraculous reality,
A portal of a transformative reality,
a portal of a passionate reality
***Purim is a place of wiping out
our arch enemy—Amalek---
where our passion destroys our coldness,
where our clarity of providence seeing
overcomes our seeing that all is lost
BURSTS OF PURIM-SPEAK
and he couldn't sleep
no matter how hard he tried
because the very act of sleep
was what got him into this bind
in the first place
and it was time to
shake up
the human race
and the lives of one and all
hanging in the balance
life and death
at the drop of a hat
at the toss of a coin
at the whims of
some loose cannon
and all they can do
is to keep
their hopes and eyes
fixed tight
on the source of
Heaven and Earth
and day and night
until they realize
that all the darkness
will turn into light
maybe just this once
she'll get it right
maybe just this once
her people's light will shine
and no one will
ever wonder why
because it's
clear to anyone
with eyes
and on this
she's willing
to stake her life
and the converging
of all the many-splendored
details of tales new and old
and the emerging of the
grandest story ever told
is the story of our lives
it's the key
to see
how all reality
is only a series of circumstances
seemingly chance occurrences
but listen closer
cuz the King
is hiding behind the screen
and speaking to you and me
intimately
letting us know
what we need to do
and where we need to be
and the story goes on and on
but we have to listen
carefully if you know
what I mean
TAPPING INTO THE INFINITY FACTOR POETRY OF PURIM
Dear seekers of the endless flow----feel the flow of light
that is beginning to seep into your soul---on these days of paisley print
multi-colored double doses of everything ------and so many other things to
occupy our bodies and souls -------from here until we just don't
know anymore -----catch it while you can before the time fades away
into memory ----subtle hints of history dance around our imagination with
stories that reveal and conceal with equal intensity----showing us that nothing
is happen-stance----it will outlast our lifetimes and all others to the end of
time and beyond ----and the golden threads of miraculous memories tug at our
collective consciousness histories -----can you feel the
mysteries---intensities incarnate---knocking on our consciousness' garden
gate---asking us to let it in ----so that we can begin again at this surreal
time ------let the wine go in and the secrets come out---the secrets that will
reveal who you are and who you can be ------and the bursts
of Purim speak ------revelations of the visibility inside of
invisibility ---will call into being the deepest yearnings that you ever
imagined could possibly be----and the vastness of your imagination
will set you on a course beyond space and time---and just one more glass of
wine-----at this holy time-----will shine away all the darkness of your life
SHE WILL LIFT YOU ABOVE THE STARS
***when you seek her out
like you seek out the greatest treasures
you will find her
***then she will be a part of you
she will be a part of who you are
and how you see
she will show you
how to be
***and she will be the sweetest experience
that you have ever experienced
and when she will call
you will come running
***and she will light you up
and she will set you on fire
and become your only desire
and you will be with her
all day and all night
***and she will lift you
above the stars
and you will be with her forever
and she will reveal to you
the deepest secrets
of life
of love
of the One Above
***and she will protect you
when you walk in dangerous paths
and she will open your eyes
to show you
how to get through
each and every challenge
that comes to you
***and she will save you from death
and she will heal you from sickness
and she will help you help others
and she will open up your essence
***she is all you'll ever need
and all you'll ever want
she will plant inside you
the ancient seed
of eternity
and Infinity
FIND INSIDE OF YOURSELF, THE YEARNING
***Find inside of
yourself, the yearning
---the great yearning to be born
---to be a brand new ,
pure, unhindered, fully expressed, unlimited being
—a being that is constantly & primally
in a state of expansive consciousness
—a state of being
where life is full of pleasure and meaning
and authenticity
and G-dliness
and love for everyone...
***Now draw this
yearning
into every cell in your being
---draw it into yourself
with such impact
until it’s almost unbearable
---and apply this unbearable yearning
for primal consciousness
to everything in your life
that is out of sync---even partially…..
***And with all of your heart---
and in as much detail
as you are able to express
---cast away
all that which has held you back
-----and then, like a new born child---
step into G-d’s infinite loving embrace
, knowing that you are well on your way
back to where you originally came from
and always yearned to return to…
SEE THE VASTNESS
***See the vastness
of what there is to see
[that is normally not seen]
***See the vastness
of the normally overlooked gifts
that people give you
***See the vastness
of wisdom accessible to you
that you normally overlook
*** See the vastness
of coping tools
that you constantly create
***See the vastness
of salvations that Hashem sends you
all the time
***See the vastness
of guidance that G-d constantly
sends to you
***See the vastness
of love that you have in your heart
[usually unexpressed]
*** See the vastness
of experiences and life lessons
that you have experienced
*** See the vastness
of esoteric energies, angels, soul stirrings
calling to you
***See the vastness
of as yet untapped influences
that you can send out
PURIM ESSENCE POINT MEDITATIONS
1A. KOL HAPOSHEIT YADO/ALL WHO EXTEND THEIR HAND
ASK FOR WHATEVER YOU WANT
Just like on Purim, anyone who extends their hand in prayer to Heaven
receives whatever they ask for, so too now begin to ask for all the good things
that you need and want in your life
1B. KOL HAPOSHEIT YADO../ALL WHO EXTEND THEIR HAND
GIVE UNCONDITIONALLY
Just like on Purim , anyone who extends their hand to receive charity
from you receives it no matter who they are, so too now practice giving of
yourself freely and unconditionally even in non-financial areas.
2A. MEGILLAT ESTHER/REVEALING THE HIDDEN
MASKS
Just like on Purim, the story of Esther teaches us that all the seeming
non-G-dly characters and adventures are really all the revelation of G-d, and
we commemorate this by wearing masks on Purim (reminding us that the
Hand of G-d works through the masked characters and situations), so too now
find all the hidden characters and desires inside of yourself, that for various
reasons normally don’t get recognized, and allow them to come out and express
themselves and demonstrate their important G-dly role in your total
personality.
3. NICHNAS YAYIN, YOTZEI SOD/WINE GOES IN TRUTH COMES OUT
DEEPEST TRUTH
Just like on Purim, we get drunk on wine, and the Hebrew numerical values
of yayin/wine and Sod/secret are equal to each other (70), showing that the
wine brings out our deepest secret truths, so too now (even without the wine)
practice reaching deep down inside of yourself to find and reveal your deepest
truths.
4. AD DLO YADA/UNTIL YOU DON’T KNOW
NOT KNOWING
Just like on Purim, we are commanded to drink until we don’t the
difference between good (‘Blessed is Mordechai) and evil (‘Cursed is Haman’),
so too now, even without being drunkc ontemplate all of those areas of life
that you just don’t know, and accept with happiness this ‘not knowing’ realm,
both as a liberating place to be in and of itself (by knowing that what you
know, you really don’t know), as well as a way to begin to know that what you
don’t yet know.
5. V’NAHAFOCH HU/AND IT WILL BE A TURNAROUND
AMAZING IRONY HUMOUR
Just like on Purim, we see that the events of the story of Esther showed
us that exactly the opposite of what was supposed to happen to us (a genocidem
G-d forbid) really happened (an incredible miraculous redemption), so too now
marvel at all of the amazing turnarounds of your past, present and projected
future.
6. AMALEK= COINCIDENCE [MIKRE]
NOTHING IS COINCIDENTAL
Just like on Purim, we respond to the inner and outer spiritual attack of
our arch-enemy-Amalek, transforming his trait of seeing that all is
coincidental, by seeing that, to the contrary, nothing is coincidental, so too
now reveal Hashem as being the engineer and Prime cause of all that happens to
you in every detail of your life (inside of you and out).
7. AMALEK = DOUBT [SAFEIK]
EMUNA CLARITY (ATEM AIDAI\YOU ARE MY TESTIFIERS)
Just like on Purim , we respond to the inner and outer spiritual
attack of our arch-enemy-Amalek, transforming his trait of seeing that all
is doubtful (especially Hashem’s felt presence), by testifying to the contrary,
that all is absolutely clear G-dliness, so too now make a list of your inner
doubts, and for each one, reach down deep and find that ‘knowing’ place, and
turn all those doubts into ‘knowings,’similarly find and reveal G-d where He’s
hiding in all aspects of your life.
8. AMALEK=COOLING DOWN [KRIRUT]
ENTHUSIASM
Just like on Purim, we respond to the inner and outer spiritual attack of
our arch-enemy-Amalek , transforming his trait of seeing that all is
‘ho-hum’ - lacking enthusiasm, by seeing that, to the contrary, all of life and
the Service of Hashem is full of enthusiasm and excitement, so too now even if
you have to ‘fake it till you make it," transform as much of your life and
your Service of Hashem into an overflowing wellspring of excitement and
enthusiasm.
9. AMALEK= DISCONNECTION [KERI] ALL IS INTERCONNECTED
Just like on Purim, we respond to the inner and outer spiritual attack of
our arch-enemy-Amalek, transforming his trait of seeing that all is
haphazard, chaotic and disconnected, by seeing that, to the contrary,
everything is interconnected, so too now search for the inter-connections
between seeming haphazard, non connected events of your life (until you begin
to see how everything is united and amazingly interconnected). Also see how
when Hashem closes one door in your life, he opens another one (or sometimes
many other ones in it’s place).
10. KOL ZE AINENU SHAVE LI/ALL OF THIS ISN’T WORTH IT [AS LONG AS MORDECHAI
ISN’T BOWING TO ME]REFUSING TO BOW Just like on Purim, in the
Story of Esther, the Evil Haman, who was temporarily lifted to fame and power,
could not enjoy it at all so long as his nemesis-Mordechai the Jew-refused to
bow to him and recognize him, so too now identify non G-dly, non-complete
self-expressing compromising choices that you are pressured to make in life,
and find the courage inside of yourself to not ‘bow’ to the pressure,
and not settle for anything less than the All-ing, G-ding choices
THE POETRY OF REVEALING THE HIDDEN DIMENSION ON PURIM
Dear fellow anticipators of the hidden
light---that is shining so brightly now--in some of the darkest nights of our
collective subconscious historical exile lives….and Mordechai the Tsadik let
out a dark and bitter scream ----and thereby brought into being some of the
greatest miracles our people have ever seen
