The Fall of the Wall

World leaders, dignitaries and thousands of visitors in Berlin mark the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Robert Frost perhaps America’s most favorite poet wrote in the Mending Wall, Something there is that doesn't love a wall. In the end of the Five Books of Moshe the Torah states concerning the prophetic promises of peace to the world that we will live without walls or the need to gather together for the sake of security.

Robert Frost goes on to say that walls in the city keep people out while walls in the country hem animals within–but the Berlin Wall was meant only to divide. Division is antithetical to the singularity of the Creator who famously divided the waters to make place for creation because the ultimate goal of division is to bring about unity; the movement and desire of all creation is to reconnect and meld back into the pure light of the Creator.

The Cabala explains how all division comes as a result of contraction like a baby separating from the mother by means of the contractions of the womb–the purpose of contraction is revelation.

The baby of peace is about to be born, the contractions are over–now is only required to push.
