The Parasha (Story) of VaYikra, is the first Parasha of a new book – Leviticus and it comes always with the spring. Why is it the best time for cleaning and cleansing? What is the message of VaYikra for all of us in the opening of a new era that is marked by the Corona Virus Pandemic? This coming Shabbat is called Shabbat HaGadol - Gadol (Big, Great) means, from a Kabbalistic point of view, Ḥesed, the ability to transform Judgement, to be greater than life. This is the first Shabbat the Israelites have experienced before the Exodus. This is an opportunity for us to connect to greatness. Now! When the world is still in a dangerous place of uncertainty, it is time to reflect and look inside. This is the time to ask: Who is the person that I want to become and not: 'What are the things that I want to have? the places I want to travel, the deals I want to make'. This the time to stop our slavery to habits, belief systems and objects, the time to prepare ourselves to the freedom awaiting us in the 5780's.
