Wisdom of today.

"Holiness is not about having faith or having a belief system; it is about the quality of God consciousness in our actions. It is not determined by social convention or by people trying to impose their codependent needs on you by defining holiness as that which meets their codependent patterns and agendas. Kedusha demands strong integrity in every action. Holiness is not about sanctifying our will or desires; it is about sanctifying our actions. Holiness does not belong to the few; it is the living responsibility of everyone.

The chosen people were chosen to create holiness on the earth and to be an inspiration to all the nations. Holiness does not mean superiority. It is a reflection of a specific focus and a particular mission that one has. Kedusha is the God-awareness present in how we live our mission. Each of us has the same potential and the same responsibility in this way."
