ברכם טהרם, רחמי צדקתך
תמיד גמלם, חסין קדוש
WHAT IS THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES: SUKKOT?
-Rav Michael Laitman
What does it mean to follow the Feast of Tabernacles, or Sukkot?
It means agreeing to erect a Schach, a thatched roof made out of plant scraps, which connects us under a single idea of unity, “as one man with one heart,” above differences.
By sitting in a Sukkah, a temporary dwelling, under its Schach, and wanting to enjoy from the Ohr Makif (surrounding light)—nature’s positive influence that emerges when we try to resemble its perfectly unified form—it is considered as enjoying in the shade of the Sukkah.
We respect the shade, i.e., our egoistic desires that detach us from each other, together with the understanding that we can be united only above our egos.
Therefore, we cover our egos with the Schach, i.e., concepts of loving and caring for others, concepts that are as scraps to our egos, holding zero egoistic importance. In the wisdom of Kabbalah, the Schach is also called a “Masach” (“screen”).
Below the Schach are our egos. Above it, we unite.
