![]() Imagine the spiritual enhancement to prayer if you reminded yourself: This is not only about me. Just imagine how davvening would be transformed if you began each new day by promising, aspiring, worshipfully, prayerfully, to love your neighbor as yourself. Hasidic prayer books, like those of Chabad, very influenced by Kabbalah, often include it.Īnd we all should. ![]() You’ll find it in Conservative prayer books, beginning with Siddur Sim Shalom (1985), but not in most Orthodox ones, like Artscroll or Rinat Israel. Yet, this beautiful teaching did not take root over time. Abraham Gombiner quoted Lurianic sources to favor this new moment of meditation before prayer. From Vital’s circle in Palestine and Syria, by the mid-17 th century, major Polish legal authorities took it on. This ritual innovation spread far and fast. My teacher of blessed memory exhorted me very strongly regarding loving all the comrades in our fellowship.” In all your prayers or behaviors or speech, you should bind your comrades to yourself. If one of the members suffers some pain, all the members must join themselves to their suffering, whether it regards physical illness or children, God forbid, and pray on their behalf. This is especially true when people attain knowledge and insight to understand their fellows on the level of the soul. “Especially when a group studies Torah together in love, all the members should have the intention of binding themselves together, considering themselves as limbs of a single organism. You should have the intention to love every Jew as you love your own life, for this way your prayer will be bound together with the prayers of all Israel, ascending to heaven and bearing fruit. “Before beginning the order of prayer in synagogue, a person must accept the commandment to love your neighbor as yourself. Hayim Vital, the Ari insisted that before beginning morning prayers – or according to some reports, before entering the synagogue – all his students should state “I hereby accept the creator’s commandment: Love your neighbor as yourself.” To that end, according to his leading disciple, R. “For us,” says the Zohar, “the matter depends on love.” Like earlier Kabbalists, he stressed that learning mystical secrets was possible only when students shared emotional bonds. The Ari’s students in Safed in the Galilee formed a tight group of about 35 or 40 people – at least we know the names of that many, perhaps others participated but were forgotten. Isaac Luria, known as the Holy Ari, formalized its daily recitation. But you could be a very diligent davvener and shul-goer and not recite this verse very often. If you observe holidays and recite traditional prayers you cannot possibly forget cosmic creation, the Exodus from Egypt, the revelation at Sinai, the connection between an exiled people and its ancestral homeland, the need to repent, to study Torah and to keep Shabbat. So perhaps it is a little odd that – unlike Judaism’s other major themes – it lacks any formal ritual reinforcement. The ancient sage Rabbi Akiva thought “love your neighbor as yourself” was the most important mitzvah in the whole Torah ! Other sages favored other verses, but any way you slice it, you cannot imagine any Judaism without it. The Torah wisely commands us to love our clan within a special relationship because of how much we share and commands us to love others in a different way, no matter how little we share. The chapter goes on to command loving the stranger as yourself. Isn’t that divisively tribal? Shouldn’t you love everyone, not just your own folk? I think this objection is misplaced. “Do not hate your kinfolk in your heart … Love your neighbor as yourself.”Īncient gentile Christians – and many modern American Jews – bristled at this mitzvah of loving your fellow Jew. H’s religious outlook is manifest in its most famous statement : Indeed, our parasha begins: “Speak to the entire community of the children of Israel and say to them: Be holy, for I, the Lord your God, am holy.” Rather, this week’s parasha is built from another source Knohl calls H, for the “holiness code.” Where P focuses on ritual details and the sanctity of temple priests, H locates sanctity among the people generally, not just the devoted elite, and therefore addresses social and ethical – not just ritual – behavior. Israel Knohl of Hebrew University, Leviticus reflects not only a single priestly source, called P for short. Modern Bible scholars distinguish among the Torah’s component parts, whose religious views are not always identical. Let’s look at this section’s most famous verse and its place in prayer. ![]() This week we read Parashat Kedoshim, which lies near the physical center of a Torah scroll and constitutes the spiritual center of biblical religion. ואהבת לרעך כמוך/ Ve’ahavta le’reyakha kamokha / “Love Your Neighbor as Yourself”

Here’s what the film is about.Īlex had the pleasure of sitting down with him to discuss the making of the short film.“Lights Out” began life as a three-minute short film by David F. The feature version of the film was made for $5 million and grossed $150 million at the box office. Lights Out is a 2013 Swedish supernatural horror short film directed, written, produced, shot, and scored by David F. That short was seen by famed filmmaker and producer James Wan ( Furious 7, Aquaman, The Conjuring) who offered to produce a feature film version at New Line Cinema. ![]() He created a short film called Lights Out. His journey in Hollywood is remarkable, inspiring and scary all at the same time. Sandberg’s story is the “lottery ticket” moment I speak about so often on the show. ![]() This is corroborated by an early Sabaic inscription, where a religious ritual was "postponed" ( ns'w) due to war. This interpretation is supported by Arab historians and lexicographers, like Ibn Hisham, Ibn Manzur, and the corpus of Qur'anic exegesis. According to this view, Nasī ' is related to the pre-Islamic practices of the Meccan Arabs, where they would alter the distribution of the forbidden months within a given year without implying a calendar manipulation. Some scholars, both Muslim and Western, maintain that the pre-Islamic calendar used in central Arabia was a purely lunar calendar similar to the modern Islamic calendar. ![]() ĭifferent interpretations of the concept of Nasī ' have been proposed. According to Muslim tradition, the decision of postponement was administered by the tribe of Kinanah, by a man known as the al-Qalammas of Kinanah and his descendants (pl. The Qur'an links the four forbidden months with Nasī ', a word that literally means "postponement". However, Muslim historians do not link these months to a particular season. ![]() A similar if not identical concept to the forbidden months is also attested by Procopius, where he describes an armistice that the Eastern Arabs of the Lakhmid al-Mundhir respected for two months in the summer solstice of 541 CE. The forbidden months were four months during which fighting is forbidden, listed as Rajab and the three months around the pilgrimage season, Dhu al-Qa‘dah, Dhu al-Hijjah, and Muharram. The Islamic tradition is unanimous in stating that Arabs of Tihamah, Hejaz, and Najd distinguished between two types of months, permitted ( ḥalāl) and forbidden ( ḥarām) months. Both al-Biruni and al-Mas'udi suggest that the ancient Arabs used the same month names as the Muslims, though they also record other month names used by the pre-Islamic Arabs. At least some of these South Arabian calendars followed the lunisolar system. Inscriptions of the ancient South Arabian calendars reveal the use of a number of local calendars. Historyįor central Arabia, especially Mecca, there is a lack of epigraphical evidence but details are found in the writings of Muslim authors of the Abbasid era. In the Gregorian calendar reckoning, 1445 AH runs from 19 July 2023 to approximately 7 July 2024. Since 19 July 2023 CE, the current Islamic year is 1445 AH. In English, years prior to the Hijra are denoted as BH ("Before the Hijra"). In Muslim countries, it is also sometimes denoted as H from its Arabic form ( سَنَة هِجْرِيَّة, abbreviated ھ). In the West, dates in this era are usually denoted AH ( Latin: Anno Hegirae, "in the year of the Hijrah"). During that year, Muhammad and his followers migrated from Mecca to Medina and established the first Muslim community ( ummah), an event commemorated as the Hijrah. This calendar enumerates the Hijri era, whose epoch was established as the Islamic New Year in 622 CE. In almost all countries where the predominant religion is Islam, the civil calendar is the Gregorian calendar, with Syriac month-names used in the Levant and Mesopotamia ( Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Palestine) but the religious calendar is the Hijri one. It is used to determine the proper days of Islamic holidays and rituals, such as the annual fasting and the annual season for the great pilgrimage. The Hijri calendar ( Arabic: ٱلتَّقْوِيم ٱلْهِجْرِيّ, romanized: al-taqwīm al-hijrī), also known in English as the Muslim calendar and Islamic calendar, is a lunar calendar consisting of 12 lunar months in a year of 354 or 355 days.

Your only resources are what you bring.The chances of something happening are small, but knowing that a trusted friend or relative knows exactly where you are can bring peace of mind and free you up to enjoy the boondocking experience and the nature around you. It’s a good idea to tell someone where you’re going and when you’ll be back. If you become injured or lost, you’ll want to plan ahead so that you have a way to communicate remotely. Because you are generally far away from populated areas or other campers, you are essentially on your own. There are fewer people nearby for assistance.However, by nature, boondocking does introduce a few risk factors you should take precautions against: How do you stay safe while boondocking? Essentially, the same safety rules apply as you might exercise with any other type of camping. Each location’s policy differs and being a considerate guest not only benefits you, but the other campers in the future that may need a place to rest or wait out a storm. This generosity should be respected, therefore, it is important to obtain permission. This is a generous and welcome option when travelers find themselves weary and still several hours from their destination. Some stores, truck stops, and casinos offer temporary RV parking (overnight) to help travelers rest when they need it. There are other locations which allow a boondocking experience. That’s nearly 100 million acres of nature waiting to be explored! Additionally, the Bureau of Land Management manages hundreds of recreation areas and offers several fee-free days to invite and encourage visitation. There are over 10,500 state and national parks in the United States. Boondocking is one thing trespassing is another! No one wants to find out the hard way that the empty field or cozy wooded spot you found is actually private property and your presence is not welcome.įortunately, almost all national parks as well as state parks allow for boondocking. When you locate a place you want to boondock, you need to be sure that camping is allowed. Where Can You Boondock?Īnother piece to the “what is boondocking” puzzle is that boondocking opens the door to camping nearly anywhere. You can enjoy the beauty of nature and truly “get away from it all.” It allows you the opportunity to enjoy camping experiences on your own, or just with a small group of your family and friends. When you are boondocking, you are away from civilization. However, some campgrounds can become so packed with other campers and attractions that it can feel more like a theme park than camping. They allow people the opportunity to get away for a day, a weekend or an extended period of time and relax – away from their regular responsibilities. Not only do we want to know what is boondocking, we also want to know, “Why?” Getting out there to enjoy nature and our great state or national parks in solitude is the most common reason people have for boondocking. You will also be separated from any kind of camp amenities, meaning there won’t be a camp store nearby if someone eats the last marshmallow for s’mores! Why Would You Want to Boondock? Don’t be misled, dry camping doesn’t mean that when you camp it won’t rain! It simply means you do not have access to water hookups therefore you are camping “dry.” It also means you won’t have access to electrical or sewer hookups. Sometimes boondocking is referred to as dry camping. Simply put, boondocking – or dispersed camping – is camping with your RV away from designated RV locations. So, what is boondocking? Let’s look at what it is, the appeal, and where and how it’s done. If leaving the hustle and bustle behind sounds appealing to you, then boondocking may be just what you’ve been looking for. Away from all modern conveniences and get back to nature. Then there are those who want to get away from it all, really get away. Still others want to be near the lake, the mountains or even the sand and the surf. Others want a vacation without the expense of a hotel room and restaurant bills. Some want to get away from the regular routine and have an excuse to cook a hot dog over the fire. 1/20/2024 0 Comments Blackhead extractor targetPet Care Pets All Pet Care Nail Clippers Flea & Tick Cameras Smart Gadgets Tech All Smart Gadgets Smart Watches Smart Bulbs Garage Door Openers Security Fitness TrackersĬomputers Tech All Computers Laptops Gaming Laptops Laptops for College Students Computer Monitors Ergonomic Keyboardsĭogs Pets All Dogs Dog Food Dog Carriers Dog Beds Dog ToysĬats Pets All Cats Cat Food Litter Boxes Scratching Posts Cat Carriers Cat Toys Headphones Tech All Headphones Over Ear Noise Canceling Wireless Earbuds Outdoor Home & Kitchen All Outdoor Raised Garden Boxes Garden Hoses Gas Grills Beach Towels Solar Pool Covers Grilling AccessoriesĮlectronics Tech All Electronics Tvs Wifi Routers Gaming Consoles Streaming Devices Instant Cameras Handheld Gaming Consoles 3D Printers Office Home & Kitchen All Office Office Chairs Standing Desks Desk Organizers Seat Cushions Under Desk Ellipticals ![]() Small Home Appliances Home & Kitchen All Small Home Appliances Vacuums Air Conditioners Space Heaters Humidifiersīedding & Bath Home & Kitchen All Bedding & Bath Sheets Bath Towels Silk Pillowcases Duvet Inserts Kitchen Appliances & Tools Home & Kitchen All Kitchen Appliances & Tools Coffee Makers Cookware Air Fryers Mixers Kitchen Gadgets Sleep Wellness All Sleep Mattresses Pillows Blackout Curtains Sound Machines Health Wellness All Health Meal Kit Delivery Gluten-Free Meal Kit Delivery KN95 Masks N95 Masks Disposable Face Masks Air Purifiers Eco-Friendly Laundry Detergents Natural Deodorants Period Underwearįitness Wellness All Fitness Exercise Bikes Dumbbells Walking Shoes Fitness Trackers Reusable Water Bottles Oral Care Wellness All Oral Care Electric Toothbrushes Toothpastes Whiteners Floss Mouthwashes Water Flossers Hair Care Wellness All Hair Care Shampoos Purple Shampoos Thinning Hair Head Shavers Flat Irons Hair Dryers ![]() Skin Care Wellness All Skin Care Moisturizers Mineral Sunscreens Sunscreens for Kids Sunscreens for Dark Skin Acne Teen Acne Rosacea SPF Lip Balms Under Eye Patches 1/19/2024 0 Comments Sneak a peek gender reveal![]() The discount/coupon does not stack with any sales. be sure to check out SneakPeek!īe sure to use my code: SPIAPR04 for $10 off your SneakPeek Test Kit!

These steps help in an accurate measurement of the billable rate and effective time utilization rate that can further support the company in deciding future rates.Īlthough, as a general rule, it is considered that every hour after the client signs the contract should be regarded as billable, and all hours before the same are to be noted as non-billable.[[[ This is because, for analytical purposes, the organization may decide to record the total hours involved while invoicing only the billable ones. The law firm’s internal rules in respect to calculation and analysis of attorney billable hours are also equally essential when drawing an invoice. Therefore, to calculate the attorney billable hours, each chargeable activity must be mentioned in the contract beforehand.įor instance, the time taken to commute to the client’s offices for a meeting can also be included in the hours since the activity is in direct relation to the project. Lawyers often carry out a whole range of work for their clients from being their registered agents to putting in the time to research and document various policies. This is important to avoid arguments and confrontations later on over whether a certain activity should have been counted as billable or not. Listing out and agreeing over the specific acts that you will be charging for holds more value when you’re working on a per-hour basis. However, if you work on an hourly-rate-based invoice system, you need to specifically mention to the client all the activities that will be billed for. Even if your company’s policy states that all activity after signing a client is billable, it is still necessary to find out the actual billable rate and effective time utilization. In the case of a fixed sum, you will be able to decide on said amount only after you can predict the time you may have to spend on the assignment. Whether your organization has a customized, yet fixed rate for the project or works on an hourly-rate basis - either way, you’ve got to figure out the total number of hours you’ll be spending on it. And this summation heavily depends on three key factors: 1. This includes the research carried out for their benefit, the meetings undertaken with them or associated parties, translation services, etc.Ĭalculation of the accurate hours that are to be found under the invoiceable head is a vital task that is to be completed by every agency. Generally, any activity that is done in direct relation to a client’s project is considered chargeable. The reason behind this being that each law firm has its own way of measuring attorney billable hours alongside its own rules as to what is counted as billable. In the legal arena, this becomes a key concern for every professional. Top 7 Tools To Track Attorney Billable Hours.(click on the links below to jump to a specific section) This further begs the question, what are billable hours and what aren’t? This article contains: The billing model that the law firm uses is to be taken into consideration as well.Īlso to be noted is that not every action in regards to a certain case can be clubbed under the head of “billable”. Legal personnel often work on multiple aspects of various cases in a single day, which makes determining which client should be invoiced for how much, more difficult. ![]() However, while in most occupations this computation is simple - summing the total hours worked and multiplying it by the per hour wage - there are several industries where it is a tad more complicated.Ī career in law is a prime example of the same.
