Hasidic Tribute to Jerry Garcia

Written by Rabbi Michael Ozair - A Grateful Yid


Continued from page 1

Reb Shlomo Carlebach was once asked which kind of niggunim (melodies) were among his favorite. He answeredrepparttar ones that you can cry to, laugh to and dance with, all atrepparttar 125302 same time. For all of us who knew Jerry's music. there is no better way to describerepparttar 125303 relationship we had with it. His music clearly came from a very lofty place. A place that can and has changed our lives forever in but a few precious moments. Our job in remembering Jerryis in holding on to those precious moments, forever.

Being that we lost our dear friend Jerry Garcia just before Shabbos Nachamu,repparttar 125304 Shabbat of comforting inrepparttar 125305 Jewish tradition I want to share a comforting teaching from our own holy Reb Shlomo with anybody who has ever suffered loss.

"As much as it takes a lot of holiness and depth to know howto laugh, it takes even more holiness to know how to cry. But it's important that you know one thing that allrepparttar 125306 rebbes say,repparttar 125307 Baal Shem, Reb Nachman, allrepparttar 125308 rebbes: That even while you're sad, don't ever stop being filled with joy. You are absolutely not permitted, even for one split second, to stop being filled with joy. Because if you truly believe there is One G-d inrepparttar 125309 world, then you also believe that He is taking care of our world as well. So how could you be sad. But yet,repparttar 125310 problem is, I'm still a human being and I'm still so sad, so broken.

Sorepparttar 125311 question is, how do I reach that level to be so sad, and while I'm still sad, I'm atrepparttar 125312 same time so filled with joy? What should my crying sound like at this point? Like Reb Akiva says, I have no choice, I'm crying with one side of my heart and laughing, withrepparttar 125313 other side of my heart. Gevaldt, is that hard. But it'srepparttar 125314 only way we know right now, and it'srepparttar 125315 holiest way we know right now.

You don't have to be a Deadhead, or be into Shlomo, or even be a Jew to connect with these holy words. All you have to be is a human being with a heart. But even a heart is not enough, as Shlomo has taught us. It has to be a heart with a little broken place in it. For a heart with a broken place in it, really isrepparttar 125316 greatest blessing of all. For if you don't have that broken place inside of you, then you are full. Those that are completely full, full of themselves and their own concerns, do not have any room left in them for G-d, for holiness, for things divine and especially, for other people. So I bless you and I, andrepparttar 125317 whole world with just a little bit of a broken heart, not too broken, G-d forbid,but broken enough so that we are no longer blind to each other's needs. The truth is, that now more than ever, we really do need each other. Now that all our rebbes are "headlights on a north bound train", we really need each other inrepparttar 125318 deepest way. "There comes a time" and that time has surely arrived! The holy truth is, that we are all living together inrepparttar 125319 Uni - Verse, singingrepparttar 125320 same songs. evenrepparttar 125321 same verse, and it's just a matter of time that we truly realize it, together.

Wishing yourepparttar 125322 holiest of moments and all blessings Divine.
