Tikkun

Posted by Luminosity , in Other 13 January 2013 · 1,257 views

To assist another is to do God's work.
To redeem one person is to redeem the world.

Isaac Luria
16th Century Rabbi
concept of Tikkun

God poured sparks of light into clay containers. The containers shattered. Shards of pottery and pieces of divine light fell to earth. Human beings must fix the broken world by retrieving the pieces of light. This is the concept of Tikkun

From Wikipedia:

Tikkun olam is a Hebrew phrase that means "repairing the world" (or "healing the world") which suggests humanity's shared responsibility to heal, repair and transform the world.
