Title: Interpret Dreams to Find the Seams

Cup of God Chats: Namaste beloved Twin Deer Mother (White Buffalo Calf Woman),

I have sent this message to the Hoop 2 and was hoping that somebody could help me with the dream interpretation ... I found it pretty weird ... maybe you can help?

Monday night dream: I was playing and hugging my mother's black dog - he was hugging me, became bigger and bigger until I recognized that this animal is actually a bear - looking directly into my eyes - face very close - the hugging got stronger - I started to feel pain in my left shoulder and woke up.

Tuesday night dream: I was outside with some people - left to me: wilderness/nature - right to me: a rather big barn. In the wilderness I saw first a fox - told the people to be careful. Then I saw a wolf - the wolf being a danger to the fox - then a small bear - being a danger to the wolf - then came a big bear and we all - including the other animals - ran to the barn. All the people ran inside - I stood at the barn entry side - being afraid - and the fox kind of looked at me: I am afraid too - let me in. Then I looked outside and the big bear had killed the small bear - how strange and weird?

What can this mean?  

I feel very very tired these days, although I try to sleep a lot - go to bed early, but wake up often during the night.. Nevertheless, I send my love and blessings to you!

White Buffalo Calf Woman Interprets: 
Monday night dream. 

You said, "I was playing and hugging my mother's black dog - he was hugging me, became bigger and bigger until I recognized that this animal is actually a bear - looking directly into my eyes - face very close - the hugging got stronger - I started to feel pain in my left shoulder and woke up."

  
Interpretation: 
Dog is a warrior, of the four directions. 
Black represents heaven.
Black Dog a warrior from heaven. 
Hugging, bigger and bigger: Healing and filling you up, as you expanded.
A bear represents the star of heaven
The black dog, helped you breath and journey spiritually to become the sacred four directions, the star of heaven. 

whitebuffalocalfwoman.net for the four roads, this will help.

Cup: I am listening/reading...thank you

Calf: Interpretation continues . . .
The star of unification of four directions offers us light, to view. vision right into your eyes, often people say it's the road to the soul. But the star of heaven, was offering you the dream of the unity of four colors and directions, where heaven is contained, the buffalo home, contains the soul. The inner darkness flow, the crystalline stone river.

Stronger hugging, can actually harm some of us, when power is concerned. Have you seen a child hug a cat, and if the kitten is small, the hug could literally kill the kitten. Our strength often is not known. We must measure it, with our vision, of the four directions and colors, this means, you serve others and listen offers you the best way to lead them, by following them. 

You (Cup of God) carry aqua, the sky in your rainbow colors. You are the embrace of the world, with the aqua overlay. Your hold can at times be too tight, the bear was teaching you to relax and trust the black dog warrior, of the heavenly soul that leads the flesh, by listening and reverberating and validating.
  
Tuesday night dream: "I was outside with some people - left to me: wilderness/nature - right to me: a rather big barn. In the wilderness I saw first a fox - told the people to be careful. Then I saw a wolf - the wolf being a danger to the fox - then a small bear - being a danger to the wolf - then came a big bear and we all - including the other animals - ran to the barn. All the people ran inside - I stood at the barn entry side - being afraid - and the fox kind of looked at me: I am afraid too - let me in. Then I looked outside and the big bear had killed the small bear - how strange and weird?"

Calf : Interpretation Continues. 
Some people, a gathering.
To the left is the use of intelligence!
The reflection of light, rather than heavenly truth of the soul.
To the right is the nature, the soul, is refreshed by the embrace of love, offered by the green, spiritual flow.

Cup: in my dream nature was left...wilderness/nature

Calf: Oh I read this wrong, Okay.
  
Left to me, embrace of all light. Oneness of God. Still offered by the green spiritual embrace. Left is outside, our flesh, really is west,where the sun does rise in the spirit world, here, we look upon the outside world, where light shines. It is the green world, we see with our eyes, that offers us, the embrace. To the left is the conscious awareness of Oneness.
  
You said, "Right to me, a rather big barn"

Right is the inside world, our soul, really is the east, where the sun sets into the heavenly world.
Here you enter a rather big barn. A barn usually is shaped with four sides and a roof. Often the pitch of the roof has many angles, more than other structures representing the crystalline stone river flow, heavenly above and heavenly below and heavenly all around. We are part of the oneness and the river's flowing. Inside the darkness we collide with our souls. We hide or illuminate and reflect the light from within in order for it to shine.   

Here we envision the horizon, where we move from the flowing of oneness, to the inside flowing to our heavenly soul. 

You said, "In the wilderness I saw first a fox - told the people to be careful. Then I saw a wolf - the wolf being a danger to the fox - then a small bear - being a danger to the wolf - then came a big bear" 

Fox is a dog warrior and very clever, who knows how to travel alone, among others and find an avenue to be alive. The wolf is the devoted servant, the fierce warrior who protects your breath.


The fox is small. The Wolf is larger. But danger is known, because of size here. However, this is vision with the eyes. But if heaven is known, vision with the heart, we recognize that the smaller is more able to be invisible. Sometimes, when we are not recognized, we feel invisible, but we survive.
  
But the wolf make notice to his prowess and stand up for all to know. If the wolf, stands up, for what is right, we become the star of heaven, united in four paths.
  
The bear is the star of heaven, united in four roads. A small bear is danger to wolf, again, due to vision of size, the light. When we look with our soul, vision of the heart, we see the united star of heaven, embraces the wolf, who stands up. The danger is hugging too much or holding on. we must let others journey along their own path.

We give what others need, by first being clever as the fox, stand up for what is right as the wolf, and unite the four directions, the buffalo home or holy temple our flesh, to become the bear, the star of heaven that shines. We grow and expand, when we become brighter and brighter. To become the larger bear.

Our shining inwardly, is from the recognition of self, the soul. We grow and expand, but only by contracting or inhaling. You need both inhale and exhale to fly. This is the vehicle or merkaba the breath. And the soul rides the breath in song. We become the shining star in heaven, when we lead others towards their own soul, within, in order they too may shine, inwardly, to expand to the outer world.

It is a united world, soul (blue) and flesh (red). And when this dream comes alive, the sun dance does arise (yellow ), once we begin this dream to stand up, we unite and rise into the darkness, the heavenly realm of stars, like Grandfather Holy Spirit. 

You said, "And we all - including the other animals - ran to the barn. All the people ran inside - I stood at the barn entry side - being afraid - and the fox kind of looked at me: I am afraid too - let me in. Then I looked outside and the big bear had killed the small bear - how strange and weird?"
  
And we means, all together there is oneness.
Ran into the barn, because it's the stream of life, the crystalline stone river, the place to hide is within the buffalo home, the holy temple of the crystalline form.
You stood at the barn entry. 


This means like a place or passage way, you become like a bridge way that others journey through, the halls of consciousness. All journey over the horizon.  Once in the barn, they enter the stream of heaven. Where souls do hide. 



You said, "I stood at the barn entry side - being afraid - and the fox kind of looked at me: I am afraid too - let me in"

Cup: Yes, it was dark in the barn and everybody ran somewhere else...

Calf: This is when others pass through the halls of passageways, you hold them. You feel them. You hear them. Think of a hall way, what all happens in this place. We hide our deepest secrets.

Cup: I was at the entry side...
  
Calf: You have the knowledge to read the book of life, but only the table of contents, just enough to guide others along their own course.  

Each being is a book of life. You are the great librarian, as the magenta person. The fox is the clever warrior who knows when to hide, but can be danger, because he does not stand up.  The fox will survive, be being on the inside, the crystalline flow of heaven, knows where to go. The smaller you are, the more you rely on instinct. When the fox feels fear, you too feel fear. But this is not your fear, but a tool, to know, where to guide them. If one is fearful, we bless them and pray to keep them safe.


Cup: mmhh?

Calf: You are not the door, but the passage way, the horizon, where we all go to and fro, inside the darkness of heaven, within, the crystalline stone river.
  
None need ask to enter in, by saying, "Let me in". But they are wondering if it's safe to journey down the halls of the stone river. You wear the red robe, offering the path of love. Your duty is to bless, those who are afraid. And when they ask, you bless them, embrace them and lead them to the place that is safe, in the world of eternity, God's kingdom.

You said, "Then I looked outside and the big bear had killed the small bear"
  
A large bear gobbles a small bear. A large star system, will gobbles small star, to unite and shine brighter. Destruction is like eating. We receive energy, by eating smaller things usually than ourselves. The heaven's too must ensure eternal life, by the natural flowing of light and darkness...We are entering a phase of the third phase of evolution.   And we depart, "creation and destruction", to the yellow phase, "destruction and creation". We must destroy to cleanse the world. We destroy to have a renewing harvest.

We destroy, to purify with fire. And it's the red road, the path of love that flows and grows. There is no more hiding, because heaven's doors are open. The halls of consciousness, must see the many flee to find their way. Each is searching for it's own personal evolution. We are inside a larger oneness evolution too. We are being gobbled up, by the larger bear. We being the smaller bear.

While we move towards our own evolution, the soul seeking. We bring heaven's path the blue road, home first. This is the negative, the bad, the lesson. And when we embrace it with love, then we find a treasure was hidden beneath all that hides.

A soul did give birth. Heaven did start to reign. And darkness is the embrace. If you don't follow this law, and let the light flow. Embrace and let go, then we do not practice love.
  
Love is the law, destroy what is not needed. Destroy the path, that is ignorance, sever with the sword and bring the truth of man to his soul. We are eternal paths of personal evolution. WE journey in a larger path of oneness evolution.

To flow with the smaller rings, amongst the larger rings, we must journey the four directions at one time. We are the glorious sun dance, in side the buffalo home.

Cup: you are teaching me patience...

Calf: Great you are learning patience.

Cup: Thank you for the dream interpretation...puuh, so it's nothing to be afraid of...just do what I say - listen to others, validate and not defend and let them go their own path by not holding on to strong...isn't this what you are teaching me all the time...arrggh, when do I learn?

Calf: Yes, thats a sum up.
  
Cup: Am I the bear...hugging my present life too much...and not letting go of the past?  Could there be more happiness?  What is the right thing to do? I seek the right moments in life, not harming others too much, but my heart each day, feels the pull further and away from the ones I love.

Calf: When we travel two roads, it's said we travel two rivers. This means, you are not united, within and without. You are what often many say, having your cake and eating it too. This means, you devour a part of you. You feel conflict, because you are not unified, in four directions.
All your questions about the present, means you do not know. If you were in love with the world around you, you would not question, but find answers.  Here you look for excuses rather than trusting your heart. You are like the big bear gobbling up the small bear. We are fragile beings. 

What I sense in you is total separation, between your soul and your flesh. You are not dancing and singing, each day, now are you?

Cup: no dancing...sometimes...singing...no

Calf: Okay my love, get to it, my great caretaker. You cannot be united, if you don't act united. This is your sacred ritual (as a magenta person), you must, not maybe, but MUST DANCE, to teach others the dance of life.

Cup: What can I sing?...Hey God, why can't I bee...just me...together with the world...that I love so much...I have to walk my path...There is no rhyme in it. 

Calf: But there is Song! I have told you before, that Magenta people are often teachers of the spiritual Native American dancing. It's the dance and song, that makes us get along. This is what you must learn, not their way, but your way. Practice makes perfect.  Trust you have all you need and practice.  Do what is upon your heart, then all will be alright.

When you do the song and dance, you will find your way. It relieves your heart and will also relieve others too. We exert ourselves, to learn, to walk the path of love. We do this, when we sing the heavenly road, we turn the lesson into a treasure.  

Okay, Cup of God, how about a song blessing for you today?

Cup: A song that teaches me how to sing...yes, please.

Calf: (Laughter) I'll do my best.

Tell me the place, where the buffalo roam (sacred four directions towards the heart, the green grass home).  Show me the halls, for us to call home (freedom at last, a dream can live k/new). I know God is waiting for my soul to return, hold me close, feel my breeze, let me go and find my needs. Hold me closer within your heart and I will be the wind set free.
  
Come and bring heaven home. Lift me up, for God to call home.  I will feel their hearts, begin their starts, and hold them near inside my heart. Come and bring heaven home. Feel the soul, that wants to roam.  Find the waves, that set me free, feel the winds upon my face.
  
I am forever, in God's grace.
  
I know the winds of time, shall bleed (red road). Others will suffer for knowing me. But my soul shall try to be bold, to hold the sacred love within me. Don't feel that I'm walking way. Instead, think, of all that I say. I hope you find love. I gift you my part. I feel the start, of where you do flow.
  
Tell me the place where the buffalo roam.  We are looking into paradise a home. We are seeking harmony where we lead, if only we could feel the breeze, we would turn treasures over to sea. It's the heart of you and me. Come and hold my hand for a day. Remember we are all here to pray. Gift your soul and song to the wind, where we can catch the waves again.
  
I know God is inside of you, because I feel the heart of a muse (medicine). You heal me with love. you gift from all above, and now, I stand here to show you the way, the path towards love gravitates. And it's time, for us to realize. That God is here, to not know only why, but to look in each heart, to begin a sacred art, the being inside, who travels over light. We are souls, who are in fright. Let our inner light, fly free.
  
Over rolling hills we feel the breeze. Over waves of divinity. I give my heart to you towards destiny. I feel the path, that you do need. Giving you the heart of me. I will hold on and embrace thee, but I know, you are going over there, and My love, will travel over fair  

♥ ¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪ ♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸♥ 

skies, towards you. We are part of the sacred blue. Relatives on a circle. Relatives near me and you. The leaves to the tree of life, that flows free. over rolling hills of light, we call a galaxy. My heart believes in the song that let's us fly free.

Jewish New Year 5771 New Moon in Virgo, Prayer for 10 Days of the Wind!

Thursday. Rosh Hashanah, the first day of the Jewish year. The Jewish day begins at sunset when the new crescent Moon is visible. 

It is a beautiful kabbalistic tradition [Kabbalah (Hebrew: קַבָּלָה‎, Qabbalah "receiving"; Qabala) is a discipline and school of thought concerned with the mystical aspect of Rabbinic Judaism] to give away something on New year - gift something to somebody.

On September 8, we have a New Moon in Virgo at 10:31 am UTC. (6:30 am EDT, 3:30 am PDT). 

During a New Moon, the Sun and the Moon are always conjunct -- that is in the same degree ofthe zodiac, and within an eight degree orb of each other. Every New Moon we have is a coming togetherof the masculine energy of the Sun with the feminine energy of the Moon.

New Moons represent new beginnings -- fresh starts. When the dual forces of the Sun and Moon join hands in their monthly cosmic dance, they create an ebb and flowof opposites -- the conscious versus the unconscious - action versus receptive intuition. This is the Dark Side of the Moon and the energies of the Moon are now at a subconscious level. We probe deeper and review our innermost needs and desires, and we plant seeds.

New Moons are about balance of these opposing forces -- the cosmic balance of the male and female energies, the Yin and the Yang -- both in our individual selves and in the universe. The fast moving Moon moves through the 12 signs of the zodiac every 28 days. The energy of each New Moon takes on thequalities of the sign the Sun and the Moon come together in - giving us the full kaleidoscope of energies.

The New Moon in Virgo has potent lunar energies. Not only do we have the Sun and Moon holding hands in Virgo, we also have Mars and Venus in close conjunction with each other in Libra. Mercury, ruler of Virgo is retrograde. Later, in the day, Venus moves out of Venus into seductive and passionate Scorpio. This is also a Super New Moon, which occurs when the Moon is at its closet approach to the Earth. Super Moons generate greater gravitational and electromagnetic pulls on the Earth's oceans and tectonic plates as well as on our psyches. Afterall, the human body is about 60% water in adult males and 55% in adult females!

Virgo is the sixth sign of the zodiac, to be exact, and it is exacting. Virgo is driven by duty; it is industrious, methodical and efficient. This New Moon is aboutbalance -- the balance between what we want to do and what we need to do -- service to others versus service to self -- spirituality versus practicality. The energies of the cosmos want us to analyze elements of our present behavior that may be out of balance and set them right. This New Moon helps us recognize truths about ourselves and wants us to focus on our particular path this lifetime.  Thank you http://www.astrology.com

Blessings relatives - be prepared for Jewish New Year 5771 Thursday...New moons are also good for feasting...

Love you ***  ♥¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪ ♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸♥

bc: Belgiumese (Belgae an ancient Celtic People) Come Feel the Breeze.  It's a shadow out there. (excerpt from elders agenda meeting, 09082010.

cw:  White Buffalo Calf Woman Sings with "Belgae Come Feel the Breeze"

bc:  I come to sing a song for elders of this town. I come to sing a song, to bring us up from a frown. I come to sing a song, to bring the heart of a clown (medicine to heal your heart).  We need to help the elders find a heart to come to sing. To sing a song, brings in no harm and elders need the sun.

cw:  Rainbows are shining, take a heart that is blinding (alightfromwithin). I know it's where we are thundering from (heaven). But in the tales of tomorow, we seek a place of sorrow (stones of tears), to bring in heaven's reign again (perfect blessings for everyone). How do you think the blue will win...d?  I look forwards to this sin....(Yellow Chief says, "I accept this challenge". Purify the sky, bring in the shields, bows, swords, knives, etc. to sever ignorance, bring in evolution in the wind, with the law of love, riding in the hearts of rainbow clouds.)

bc:  I feel a heart beat growing, notice and a showing, down a sacred road, to divinity. And when we get there blooming, then all the sin, will be looming, to portray a new way, because they did say. I bless you, I do, because you are true, an elder who came to rescue you.

cw:  And when the sun does set today, I tell you truly, the song of heaven does rise again, the darkness full filling. and when our hearts do greet, then all will be a meet, the gathering of clans, not just of man, but heaven's abounding joy.

bc: We are on the round about, ready to give in and shout.  We know the song singing.  We think we are bringing, the soul that's beyond, but it's near. Let's bless the inside of hear. (so cute)

cw:  Here we go a blessing, taking sacred lesson, turning them into stones of destiny (crystalline stone river).  I say, I'll be a treasure, because there is measure of how, we do glide down the sacred slide, where evolution brings me near to thee.

bc: Counting, two and three, now it's time for me.  I'm the four way track, look I'm going fast (laughter, from the sacred four directions).  And now, the looking is fine, always showing a great big shine.  Look at my teeth today, whiter than any other place (seeds for tomorrow).  I say, I'm a tear of magic, because it's where roots take havoc, to produce the soil, to make us boil, the seed turns into age, and what do I have, but sacred space.

cw:  Listen to the toil, turning over the soil.  Waiting and watching rainbows in the sky, bringing tears of heaven, crying over time.  And there my tree does grow and show age, with fruit I share with thee.  I'm looking at the sun and the breeze.  Come share your story here with me! (read a book of life)

bc: I'm gathering, practicing, how to make ends meet, the soul and the flesh do need to mesh, but how, do I get them to share?  (laughter)  And it's a wave of destiny, that brings us home this day. I'm going to the favorite blue (relatives on the tree of life), the soul's home, me and you, (low note, law of love) the heaven's house of dew. (high note, heavenly tone) The song that finds love in you! 

* 9/8 eve to 9/10 eve: Rosh Hashanah/Jewish New Year (Year 5771)--Commemorates Creation of the World by Elohim, the one universal Deity; begins ten days of self-examination and penitence for harm done. [This signifies day five of Creation, when humans were created.] [See Blessing for Life/Beracha Shehechiyanu.] [On Rosh Hashanah, everyone is judged by Elohim based on his or her actions during the previous year. The resulting judgment is inscribed, and everyone's future is determined for the following year. Though that judgment is inscribed, it is not yet sealed and can still be changed until Yom Kippur, when the book is sealed for the year. Regret for past misdeeds, commitment to future good deeds, prayer, and charity can change a bad decree. The shofar is blown to mark the new year and the beginning of the ten Days of Penitence.] [See Psalm/Tehillim 106:3: "Happy are those who act justly, who do right at all times" and Psalm/Tehillim 119: "Happy are those who keep the judgments, and practice righteousness at all times".] [See Prayers of Confession/Viddui] [Rosh Hashanah a/k/a Rosh Hashana, Rosh HaShanah; Days of Penitence a/k/a Days of Repentance, Days of Awe, High Holy Days, Aseret Yemei Teshuva, Yamim Noraim] [Tishri 1-2]

Prayer for 10 Days of the Winds

There is a rushing winds inside me. I wonder where it flows, because I look for rainbows, to know the sacred glow. My heart is full of bounty as heaven enters me. I look at stars in heaven, when lights go down in me.  And dreams take me to heaven, where all does shine so bright, if only I could linger, to bring heaven home this night.  And when I awake, I remember, my dream was for today, to live a better way.  

When lights within does slumber, to bring in lullabies, my heart feels good tonight. The day light and the night time, it seems a rushing winds.  And now, my dreams unfold me, inside heaven's embrace I run.  The rushing winds, find me, to take my dream up high.  Now stars in the heaven's find a place to reside.

Give me my sorrow, bring in riches next year, abundance tells a story, that God is here to stay.  And when I share my riches, then all will be good fortune for sure, because all my neighbors, will be fulfilled too.  I only need my relatives (in the galaxy), the ones who come and go with me. I love the world and all it gives, I bless all that sifts. 

And those who were yesterday, I bless you and hope you pray, because your dreams are meaningful, just like our dreams we feel. Let's go to sleep and find heaven's gate, in order we can collide, to bring heaven home tonight. And my heart will be humble born, to bring the light of the sun, the dream of heaven's rungs (evolution steps, descending of the soul, diving into heaven, when we dream at night, our hearts ignite, to bring us our living suns).

Rosh Hashanah, the Time G_ah_d Lets Us Begin!

Rosh Hashanah (Happy New Year), Yom Ha-Zikkaron,Yom Teruah, For the Rushing Winds, the Heart Bellows Again!

The teachings of Judaism come from the written tradition and the oral tradition, both of which were given by the Holy One, blessed be He, on Mount Sinai over 3300 years ago. The written tradition is the Torah consisting of the five books of Moses: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, all written in the language of biblical Hebrew. The open part of the oral tradition was written down not quite 1500 years ago and is found in the Talmud, written in the language of Aramaic. The less open part, the hidden light, is carried an oral tradition called the Kabbalah. Kabbalah comes from the Hebrew root meaning to receive. Kabbalah teaches how we can open ourselves to receive from God and how when we do this completely we become givers to God.

The teaching of Kabbalah is not just an intellectual teaching. It is a consciousness teaching of how we can utilize our consciousness to bring Godliness into the world by our thoughts, emotions, speech and actions. Kabbalah keeps us focused on why God created us in this world and what we can contribute and give to the world and to God. In this way Kabbalah teaches us to know God in all the ways in which our minds could possible know that which is totally beyond us.

Kabbalah is a God consciousness teaching: how by discplining our mind and our interpretations of that which is happening around us, we can maintain an awareness of God's presence. When we can maintain an awareness of God's presence, we easily become complete givers and receivers and facilitate others to become complete givers and receivers.

It is a beautiful kabbalistic tradition [Kabbalah קַבָּלָה‎, Receiving] to give away something on New year - gift something to somebody. 

Giving and Receiving

In every interaction there is a giving and receiving that happens simultaneously at multiple levels. Each level of giving and receiving constitutes a unification. The base level is when the giver gives what is to be given and the receiver receives it. The giver gives a vessel and the receiver receives and takes possession of the vessel being given. This is how conventional street wisdom understands giving and receiving.

This base level is not unified when the transaction is not complete. That is, when the receiver does not take possession of what is given. But this is not the only level. For the giver gives not only the vessel but also gives a spiritual essence along with the vessel. The spiritual essence is the essence of the giving from the giver's point of view. The essence is relative to the giver's intent of the giving and to how the giver hopes the receiver will be able to utilize the given vessel for both physical and spiritual purposes.

When the receiver receives what is being given, the receiver not only receives the vessel, but also receives the spiritual essence of what is given, as this spiritual essence is interpreted by the receiver. In the complete transaction, the receiver indicates to the giver that the receiver has received the spiritual essence of the giving by giving back to the giver the acceptance of the giving. For the receiver, in accepting what is given, is also giving this acceptance to the giver. To complete the unification at this level, the giver must accept the receiver's acceptance.

This second level of unification is easily understood by thinking about the usual social etiquette in the giving of a gift. The giver gives and the receiver receives. The receiver says something like, "Thank you, it is just what I wanted." indicating such an acceptance of what is received that the receiver's acceptance constitutes the receiver's giving to the initial giver. Then the initial giver says something like "Enjoy and use it well." This constitutes the initial giver's acceptance of the receiver's giving the receiver's acceptance of what the initial giver has given. Because the receiver has already told the giver that "it was just what I wanted," the giver's statement, "enjoy and use it well," completes the unification.

But when the receiver does not accept what the giver is giving, the transaction is not complete. Instead of a unification there is a disunification. The giver will feel rejected or angry. And unless the giver is able to control these feelings, the giver will initiate an entire new action sequence that in effect rejects the receiver's giving that consists of a rejection of the initial giver's giving. It would not be unusual for the initial giver's rejection to be emotionally raw and initiating a new round of disunifications.

There is yet another level to the giving and receiving that is not necessarily apparent from the verbal social interaction. This level is a higher spiritual level and has to do with the more global understanding and intent of the giver and the receiver. This level is activated when the giver understands and feels that the giver has been the receiver of Divine giving and as an agent of the Divine, the giver chooses to pass along the giving. The giver's understanding and feeling that the giver has been the receiver of the Divine giving constitutes the giver's acceptance of the Divine giving. For this the giver thinks or says a blessing. This level is unified when the receiver understands that the giver is in fact acting as an agent of the Divine and therefore, the receiving is not just a physical/spiritual receiving, but a spiritual receiving from the Divine as well. For this the receiver thinks, says or gives a blessing. And this constitutes the receiver's acceptance of the Divine giving.

There is one higher spiritual level. This is the level at which both giver and receiver make a conscious choice to understand everything happening in their lives starting from the point of receiving the Divine giving. This is the level of so aligning their individual wills with the Divine will that the giver and receiver are always evaluating and understanding, not from their individual point of view, nor from their family's point of view, nor even from their country's point of view. But they are evaluating and understanding from the point of view of the Creator. The issue is whether the act in question will in its direct and indirect effects be of greater benefit to the universe than any other act that could be undertaken.

We call this level the level of cosmic consciousness. It carries with it a central internal calmness and peacefulness, an equanimity, that cannot be shaken. For at this level, the ego is nullified. There is no reason for reacting or getting upset about the seemingly bad things that others are doing. There is no reason for being upset about a giving that is not being received. All this is understood as the hand of the Divine setting up situations that make possible the revealment of the highest level of virtue that we, to whom the badness is done, or we whose giving has been rejected, are capable of revealing. For it is in these situations that we have the possibility of bringing into manifestion (open revealment) the virtues of a tzaddik.

The challenging or difficult situations are precisely those situations in which a special Divine spiritual giving is occuring to us. The issue is whether we are open for receiving it. When we are, we are deeply thankful for this possibility. We complete the transaction by completely receiving what has been given and we do what must be done to reveal the highest level of virtue that we can. Our center is not moved and we experience indescribable delight.

Let us consider the situation where the giver forces the receiver to receive something the receiver does not want to receive. The receiver may not want to receive the given vessel itself or may not want to receive the spiritual essence given along with the vessel, or may not want to receive either. For example, what happens when the giver gives an insult to the receiver or when the giver-merchant overcharges the receiver-buyer. In these kinds of giving the receiver has been wronged and the unification of the complete-giving/complete-receiving will not happen, unless the receiver acts in a specially virtuous way.

The insulting statement not only is a put down, but it is not true. The overcharging merchant is not fair. We engaged in the transaction with an implicit understanding that the exchange was to be a fair exchange. We had no desire to get from the merchant either more than what is proper or less than what is proper for the fair exchange. We, the receiver have been violated by the bad thing given to us.

Let us look more closely at the situation. The giver was in control. The giver was the initiator and was responsible for the wrong doing given to the receiver, a wrong doing that has a dimension of vessel and has a dimension of spiritual essence. And the receiver must receive the bad thing the giver is giving. How can the receiver completely receive such a giving? For the giving by nature was not complete.

In another kind of situation, we may be the giver who gives essential and important information to a receiver. But the receiver actively rejects the information. Here, the rejection by the receiver constatutues a giving to the initial giver and the initial giver becomes the receiver of the initial receiver's rejection of the initial giver's giving. This rejection by the receiver constitutes the receiver's giving back to us. Our perception of this giving is that it is not a good giving. We have received something bad. When we receive a bad thing we feel bad for having been wronged; we get angry. An injustice was done. Our essential being has been violated.

In every situation that we do not completely receive, we judge that in some sense we have been violated. When we are violated we get angry. As the receiver, our problem is to completely receive a violation! How can we do that?

We must think as follows: We must think that the giver of the violation is the hand of God. Perhaps the bad we have been given is spiritually similar to a bad that we had earlier given to someone else. Or perhaps it is a badthat we were about to give to someone else. Or perhaps the bad we have been given carries within it a spark of Godliness and the situation has been expressly created for us to provide an opportunity to bring into action a virtue, to manifest a quality of Godliness, that is beyond what might be ordinarily expected. For example, God might have expressly created the situation for the purpose of providing us the possibility to manifest the appropriate virtues which would help the giver become a complete giver. If we, the receiver, could do this then since the giving would be complete, the receiving would be complete and the violation and hurt would disappear from existence. Or God might have expressly created the situation for the purpose of providing the possibility for us to manifest the virtues required to enable us to be a complete receiver of what the hand of God has given us. This latter case commonly happens for the purpose of bringing the realization to the receiver that the receiver must change the way the receiver makes judgements so that the the receiver might learn how to be more correct in interpreting the spiritual essence of what has been given.

Our first step to completely receive the bad is to accept the hurt and move on to take action which brings out the sparks of Godliness concealed within the bad, i.e. to act as the tzaddik. When we do this, something very interesting happens. Because we begin to engage in an action to reveal Godliness, the hurt goes away. It dissolves.

Initially it is the ego within us that yells: hurt! hurt! hurt! Return hurt to that which has hurt us! Withdraw from, isolate, conquer or destroy that which has hurt us! But as soon as we engage in an action to reveal Godliness, the ego becomes occupied as the coordinator of the activity we engage in to bring out and reveal the spark of Godliness. The ego which had been yelling hurt no longer is in existence.

With respect to the giver of the wrong, there is more. For the giver has not become a complete giver. To facilitate the giver becoming a complete giver the receiver must try, in a proper way, to make sure that all the facts are known by the giver. For perhaps if the giver more fully understands what actually happened, the giver would have acted differently. Doing this properly means that the receiver must fully understand the giver's assumptions, perspectives, and framework of operation, so that the receiver can engage a dialog with the giver and do so from the giver's point of view. This kind of dialog can straighten out mistakes made by the giver at the level of vessel or mistakes by the giver at the level of spiritual essence of what is given, or mistakes made by the receiver relative to the interpretation of the spiritual essence of what has been given.

If this level of action does not work, the receiver may initiate actions which catalyze social pressure to be put on the giver to right the wrong. Or the receiver may take legal action. Or the receiver may take no further action and just drop the situation. But for the receiver, the essence of what the receiver does is to help facilatate the giver to become a complete giver and for the receiver to become a complete receiver.

Now let us consider the situation from the point of view of the giver. How does the giver completely give in this situation in which the giver has just given a bad to the receiver. First the giver has to come to a recognition that a bad had been given. When the giver recognizes that the giver has made a mistake, the giver must immediately stop any other activities that involve making the same mistake and resolve not to make similar mistakes in the future. Then the giver must right all the similar past wrongs that the giver committed. This level is the level of nullifying the bad vessel of what had been given. The amount overcharged the receiver must be returned to the receiver. The giver must explain to the receiver that the giver made a mistake and that the giver will not make the mistake again. The insult must be taken back. The giver must go to the receiver and explain to the receiver of the insult that the giver no longer feels about or judges the receiver in such an insulting way.

Finally, the giver tells the receiver that the giver is sorry for having made the mistake. This is important because it is the action which undoes the giver's intent of giving the bad to the receiver and/or undoes the receiver's judgement that the giver had intended to give the bad to the receiver. This level is the level of nullifying thebad spiritual essence of what had been initially given.

The receiver completely receives the giver's taking back of the giver's mistake and completely receives the giver's regrets by telling the giver that the receiver has forgiven the giver. Everything now is all right. All is forgiven. The giver receives or acknowledges the receiver's acceptance of the giver's taking back of the giver'sbad by telling the receiver "thankyou for understanding." This level is the level of unification that completes the nullifying of the bad spiritual essence of what had been initially given.

This process of recognizing the mistake, stopping all other such mistakes that may be in process, resolving not to make such future mistakes, righting all the wrongs, and telling the receiver of the mistake that the giver is sorry constitute the process of return. The bad, both the vessel and its spiritual essence, which had been brought into existence is completely taken out of existence. It is returned to non-existence. We call this process Teshuvah, whose literal meaning is reply, answer, response, rejoinder, return, or repentance. It is related to the root שוב and associated with the passage:

And you shall return unto the Lord your God and hearken to His voice according to all that I command you this day, you and your children, with all your heart and with all your soul.{Deuteronomy 30:2.}

When we have made an error by incompletely giving or incompletely receiving, Teshuvah is our response, our reply, our answer, to the repair which must be done. It is the way we can recover from a mistake and continue on the mission of completely receiving and giving that we are called upon to do. Completing this mission is our return to a greater nearness to God, to a greater God-consciousness. Completely receiving and giving is how we unify God's name.

Rosh Hashanah is the first day of the Hebrew year. It is called Rosh Hashanah since "rosh" means head and "shanah" is year - the "ha" part makes the whole "head (or beginning of) the year" So, when you meet them, it is nice to wish your Jewish friends a happy new year. "Happy New Year" or the Hebrew equivalent "Shana Tova" are appropriate greetings.

If you wish to elaborate, you can wish them good health, happiness, love, peace, prosperity ... and whatever else you would wish someone beginning a new year. If you want to give a gift, kosher chocolates, candies, baked goods or fruit make thoughtful Rosh Hashanah gifts because sweets symbolize hopes for a sweet new year.

Yom Kippur is when Jewish people celebrate the Day of Atonement. It is fitting to continue with the "Happy New Year" or "Shana Tova" greeting all the way through Yom Kippur as this whole period is considered the start of the new year. You could also wish your Jewish friends a "Good Signing" (in the Book of Life) or the Hebrew equivalent "Hatima Tova," but it is more apprpriate to use that only for greeting the more orthodox of your Jewish friends. They are the ones most likely to use such a greeting. Given Yom Kippur is a fast day, you could also wish your Jewish friends an "Easy Fast" or the Hebrew equivalent "Tzom Kal." Gifts are not given for Yom Kippur.

You don't need to wait till Jewish New Year Day to begin using this greeting since, like the non-Jewish person uses "Happy New Year" from a few days before, so does the Jew. So, if you run into friends who greet you with "Shana Tova," smile and greet them the same way, right back.
