On the occasion of this new year,
I extend my greetings and best wishes to you all. Every year, we take special notice of the new year, recognizing this as a special occasion to reflect with regret on any mistakes we may have made or misdeeds we may have committed during the previous year and to renew our commitment to refrain from any wrongdoing in the future. At this time, it is important to think: from now on and in this new year, I will never contradict the supreme dharma in any of my actions of body, speech, and mind. I will abide by and practice the supreme dharma for the sake of benefitting everyone, myself and all others. This is the most important and meaningful approach to this human life. Throughout this entire new year, I pray that all beings may remain free from all unfavorable conditions and enjoy the auspiciousness of harmonious conditions, virtue, and excellent goodness. Tashi Delek!
