Maybe I missed something, but being in E"Y is not being immersed in kedusha?>>
Let me change topics
RMF claims that the mitzvah of yishuv EY is a mitzvat Aseh kiyumit like Tzizit
where one is not required to do it but one gets a mitzva if one does.
R. Shapira (Ztl) disagreed and pointed out that if one wears a cloth
with 4 corners
then one is required to put on tzizit. Similarly other mitzvat Aseh
kiyumit the choice
is whether to be in the position. However once in the position the
Mitzvah is required.
Same thing for Succah once one eats a meal on any day of Succot it
must be in a Succah.
The kiyumit part is only that one doesnt't have to eat a meal.
None of this applied to yishuv EY
I once heard a defense of RMF comparing it to eating matzah on the
later days of Pesach according to the Gra where there is a mitzvah if
one eats matzah.
Does anyone know of other mtzvot Aseh which are completely voluntary?
