Coming Home

Through returning home all things are reunited with G-d......Returning home is, in essence, an effort to return to one's original status, to the source of life and higher being in their fullness, without limitation and diminution, in their highest spiritual character, as illumined by the simple, radiant divine light.... It is only through the great truth of returning to oneself that the person and the people, the world and all the worlds, the whole existence, will return to their Creator, to be illumined by the light of life. This is the mystical meaning of the light of Messiah, the manifestation of the soul of the universe, by whose illumination the world will return to the source of its being, and the light of G-d will be manifest on it.
