I hope all of you had an incredible Sukkos and took advantage of the tremendous spirituality that surrounded us during the past few weeks. As we enter the new year with a clean slate, we also restart the cycle of reading the Torah, starting again from Parshas Bereishis. However, not only is this a physical cycle but a spiritual one as well. We have the opportunity to gain a more profound understanding of the Torah and its lessons. For each year a new and unique level of spirituality is given to the world which is relevant to its day and age. We learn why the Torah begins with the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet? We learn how to tackle the new year!
