    Rabbi Schochets words come from the famous VeAta Tetzave
    These words have a strong effect when you briefly think about them right before VeSechezena in Shmone Esre

    This implementation is based on a Igeres Ramban that says to think meaning “before” saying the word in Dovering

    In fact if you look into that maamar you will see the three levels that make us a vessel for Moshiach match the three words
    1. Vetechezena – and we should see
    2. Eynenu- our eyes (every body even on the end of the world)
    3. Beshuvcha- your return (you meaning “Dich Alain” )
    To make this more effective, think of both side of the coin right before you say each word (based on Kuntres HaHisbonenus Chapter-6).
    Here is an example;
    Pain- now in galus, it is like the Beis Hamikdash is burning
    Pleasure- we want to see Hashem like in time of King Shlomo, say “Vetechezena” we should see
    Pain II- Even if I experience spirit like in the times of king Shlomo, if it is not global, its not the real thing, the real essence (Etzem HaOr)
    Pleasure II- I want “Eynunu” our eyes, all our eyes should see, even at the end of the world
    Pain III- Even the former level is not Hashem himself,
    Pleasure III- We want “BeShuvacha” YOU! Dich Alain

    Hope Rabbi Schochet likes this implementation based on his inspirational words

    “Vetechezena” is not ‘WE should see’, it means ‘THEY should see, or more precisely – ‘and [may] they (meaning ‘our eyes’) see…’

  • To BCH from Shimon

    Dear BCH Thank you for your comment!
    Acc. to what you clarified

    The question is, does Eineunu also mean your eyes or just my eyes?

    If Einenu also includes your eyes, then it is a Chidush over Vetechezena which only refers to “them” my personal eyes.

    In any case, how do you personally implement Oys 9 in the Rebbes Maamar in a 3x a day doable technique.

    How have you found your Ahavas Yisroel improve? like the Rebbe explains towards the end of the Maamar?

    If you say the Rebbe is not suggesting practicing a 3x a day technique, then why should my Ahavas Yisroel improve?

    It seems the Rabbi Schochet, in his talk, wants real outcomes, real implementation.

    What do you suggest?
