Purim

Every holiday have special commandments. One of the commandments of Purim is - must get drunk on Purim until he doesn't knew the real cursed  Haman and blessed Mordechai. "This duty applies to any amount of Purim, and does not like to read the Megilah, for example, after reading the Megilah man already did the commandment; but the duty of feasting and gladness until not Knowledge applies to all the day.

This command large puzzling: How could the Torah be able order a Jew could not distinguish between 'Cursed be Haman' and 'blessed be Mordechai'? The commentators explain that mitzvah is that the person is drunk he could not calculate the numerology identical to the 'cursed Haman and blessed Mordechai "(502). But this answer still does not explain why the selected comparison between 'Cursed be Haman' and' blessed be Mordechai' - drunk could not calculate any numerology.

The fact that 'Cursed Haman' worth numerology to 'Blessed Mordechai', indicates that substantial internal connection between them. Numerology in Torah is not accidental, but reflects a connection between things. Consequently, the question is strengthened even more - how could there is a connection between 'Cursed be Haman' and' blessed Mordechai, and indeed seemingly are totally opposites!

But if you look deeper the connection between 'Cursed be Haman to Blessed Mordechai; Purpose Formation of 'Cursed Haman, is to reach to the contrary, that by the spiritual work of the children of Israel he will turn to the blessed Mordechai. This is also the general purpose of the creation of darkness and evil in the world - make them good and light. Is, therefore, the inner intention in Cursed Haman is - Blessed Mordechai.

This inner meaning of the mitzvah to get to 'not know' - the Jews must also see in 'Cursed Haman, the inner purpose, until you see the difference between 'Cursed be Haman' and 'blessed be Mordechai'. Immediately when he sees the 'Cursed Haman, he felt only the inner essence means that every purpose and become Blessed Mordechai.

This recognition cannot reach the normal mode, when a person's attitude is based on sense and understanding. From the mind, 'Cursed Haman and blessed Mordechai' are completely opposites. But When a Jew level rises above the mind, and refers to things as they appear from the perspective of God himself, then he felt that two things are actually a single point.

An example is what the sages said: "repentance is so great, that the evil becomes rights." According to the logic, malicious sins are completely badly, you cannot absolutely make it a holy thing. The usual order of things must not be a Jew is no hot spot With these things, but to reject them completely.

Tremendous desire of the repentance to holiness, bring it up to G-d himself, to the point where the evil is intended to serve the holy, to turn over for good. This is also the point where turning 'Cursed Haman' and 'blessed Mordechai.
