Hashkama Minyan | Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb
Most of us see that there is evil in the world. Evil is a moral category and we moderns and postmoderns are fairly comfortable with moral categories. But we are far less at home with the idea that some actions or objects spiritually befoul, contaminate and pollute our world. That there are somehow "impure forces" --different from the powers that corrupt us morally--at work around us blocking our way to what we might call " our sacred centers", that is, the places where we encounter or commune with " the transcendent". Awareness of such impure realities---taboo/tumah-- are all over pre-modern cultures. We moderns seem to be tone deaf or color blind when it comes to perceiving them. The best we might be able to say is that, to the extent that the fullness of life is associated with what is sacred to us, there are also actions, objects and situations linked to death---decay, corpses, diseases, weapons. And, there are realities and illusions that join these " impure forces" with moral corruption and , in the end, kill us, keep us from being who we are when we are profoundly in touch with what connects us to the transcendent. They are the lies, the deceits, the abuses of power, the moments of indifference to the suffering of others that yield the deepest evils--exploitation, oppression even genocide--that are somehow more that morally evil or corrupt--that are "impure and polluting".
Thoughts occasioned by the rabbinic and mystical commentaries on Genesis 25: 22.23, and Malachi 1 and 2.
