Reverting evil to
the epitome of holiness and good
When a person is
confronted by bad thoughts, hears vulgar language, or sees enticing
thing, all of which bombard his mind, swamping him with ill desires
trying to overwhelm him to give up his hold and give in, plunge down
Heaven forbid, and when a person accustoms himself to scream to
Hashem Yisburach at all such instances, to scream and scream with all
his heart and might, in this way he ultimately brings about a
fundamental phenomenal tikkun. For in this way the person trains and
ingrains in himself that these images, sounds, or thoughts trigger
strong crying out to Hashem Yisburach. Everytime this person
experiences such and such, together with the evil urge comes a strong
shouting and upheaval to find refuge in the mercy and unity of Hashem
Yisburach. In time, it may take one day, one year, twenty or fifty
years, it could take till after he dies, but eventually the evil lure
will fade, and the objects of enticement will remain bare skeletons
of emptiness, and now they will only be conduits and reminders of the
holiness which they conjured. The most disgusting perverted glamor
which held so many captive to the other side will actually conjure
only yearning and longing for Hashem Yisburach!
Sometimes
unfortunately we are afflicted by opposite, certain words or images
invoke in us reminders of something unholy, and we must do our utmost
to reprogram these instinctive reflex triggers to holy ones. Take the
time to address it head on, if it is a word, try to figure out how
this word actually has holy roots and persuasion, something to latch
on to and project for yourself instead of the unholy. Empower the
good venue you found with strong conviction, which itself is
screaming to Hashem Yisburach to help afix you on the path of
holiness.
In this way one
changes the whole world for the good, sanctifying his surrounding and
his very well-being. Rabbi Nachman said that there is a construct
that everything is turned to good.
Na Nach Nachma
Nachman MeUman!
