Hoshana Rabba & the joy of water| Are you the author or victim of your story?

succot Oct 06, 2023

Sefer Yetzira tells us that the Creator created the world with "a book, a story, and an author." Are we the authors of our stories or are we passive and reactive players? The joy of the last day of the festive holiday of Succot is called Hoshana Raba or "great salvation." The entire holiday of Succot is associated with a particular joy of water. What is this joy and how is it different than the joy of wine? Furthermore, the day of Hoshana Rabba has four unique customs. What is the significance of these customs and what can we internalize from this day into our year?
