Summary

In the window of time between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, we have the opportunity to return to our past and set things right. In this mini-episode, we discuss the act of teshuvah and how we can make amends and reconnect to the Light at this powerful time of year.

“There is no experience that we go through in which we don’t see through our own lens first and foremost. It is an added step, a conscious effort, to ask, ‘How did that person feel when I did this?’” – Monica Berg

0:00.0	There's a beautiful teaching that says that somebody who's made mistakes and corrected them
0:14.0	is of a much higher level than somebody who's never made mistakes.
0:18.0	Because that process actually makes you more powerful.
0:26.2	Welcome to spiritually hungry.
0:28.0	Still summer edition.
0:29.0	Correct.
0:34.0	So today we're going to talk about something called Chuba, which literally means to return and discuss forgiveness.
0:36.8	Clearly it's a topic that's not unique to only those who study Kabbalah.
0:40.3	It's a universal concept that is vital to our growth as humans.
0:46.3	So at this time of year, we're called to take a long look at our past
0:50.3	and to praise ourselves and our behavior.
0:53.3	It's like an accounting and look at things we wish we hadn't done,
0:57.0	think about things we wish we had done.
0:59.6	And we don't often realize how much time, energy, light potential we've lost in one given
1:08.4	year.
1:09.1	We can only go back as much as we think we've lost. So imagine I lent you $1,000. Okay. But then I forgot that I lent it to you. And you can't, then I can't get it back because I didn't acknowledge that I ever gave it to you in the first place, right? So it would be lost on me. It would be lost altogether. It's the same thing. Unless it was a trustworthy person who turned things to the apartment.
1:29.9	It's the same thing here.
1:31.6	If we think we only did a small amount of harm or we only made a few mistakes, but for the most part, everything's great, then that's going to limit how many additional new blessings, growth, potential, et cetera, we can bring
1:45.4	forth in this coming year. So a question for you, Michael. Do you have any regrets about the last
1:50.5	year? You're probably thinking probably relationships is where you went in your head.
1:54.4	Really? I'm just kidding. Yes. I've actually never asked you that question ever in all.
1:59.9	Actually, it's something I spoke about a few days ago in the lecture that I gave and I think
