Erev Yom Kippur 5732 (late 1971)

00:00 May the Master of the Universe grant that in every generation we merit true and complete teshuvah—teshuvah with heart, with a whole heart, and at the same time, with joy. First and foremost, this teshuvah comes from the inner dimension of Torah. Then it will be a year of Torah, a year of Torah, and may we merit to live with joy, with the joy of Torah. And Torah, both its revealed and hidden dimensions, will immediately be practiced[?] through the end of all generations. May they study Torah with abundance, diligence and devotion, with joy and gladness of heart. So too, a further outpouring will continue, with Hashem’s blessing: “And I will give you your rains in their season.” This also refers, in fact, to material matters. So, in their season—and may it be a year of Torah, a year of blessing, a year of Torah. And at its innermost point, a year of Geulah, a true and complete Geulah, with inner matters and a personal Geulah. And along with that, and before it, there are broader matters of this kind, and the collective Geulah through our righteous Moshiach. May he come, redeem us and lead us upright to our land. And all this, in actuality, with joy and gladness of heart, and with the joy of Torah, with the joy of Torah. And in the merit of all the Jewish people, and of Torah in both its revealed and hidden dimensions.
