When we speak negatively about others we connect to the same shell of negativity that was present in the Garden of Eden during the sin of Adam creating a blockage that prevents us from receiving the full amount of Light we are meant to receive. This shabbat we have an important decision to make. As Michael explains, the small actions that we do not consider important are actually very important. If we want blessings in our lives and the ability to fully support others when they need assistance, we need to choose to be significant in all areas of our life. This means that even the small actions like negative speech become important.
One of the most spiritually damaging acts has become all too familiar – all forms of ‘evil speech.’ Our words carry immense power, yet they manifest in ways we cannot see. When we refrain from speaking or listening to evil speech, we in turn protect ourselves, the person being spoken about and those hearing it. This week, recognize when you may be lured into evil speech and utilize the energy available to restrict any involvement.
