<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">I will try one more rephrase of my previous
posts. The central theme (RMB will probably still not like this as an answer to
his question), and I think equivalent to “rotzon H’,” and of “tikun olom,” is to
do that which will be a kidush H’ and be megadel shem shomayim bo’olom. Every
mitzva or positive deed you do is to lesser or greater degree a kidush H’ (and
to avoid the opposite). I think these ideas are essentially one and the same
viewed from different perspectives. I would have great difficulty to attempt to
differentiate between them, if in fact the overlap is not complete.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">It just occurs to me to add to what I posted
previously and reproduced<BR>below that if the central theme is do Tikun Olom so
hatava from HKB'H<BR>can flow to you, the central theme of tikun olam is to
emulate HKB'H<BR>(ma hu rachum af ata rachum etc). The tikun olam is not just a
means to<BR>"earn" ones keep, but it is also the mechanism that enables the
hatava to<BR>flow. The emulation creates a sheychus and allows the relationship
to H'<BR>(the flow of hatava) to exist, the greater the emulation (the more
G-D<BR>like), the greater the relationship, the greater the hatava.<BR><BR>Kol
