Bidrachim rabot halachti... Chassidus views the command to Avram, "Lech Lecha", as a command to the holy Neshama to descend from Essential Truth into the highest truth of a physical existence. And also as the ascent from the world of Terach into the highest physical truth. And when we do both, bringing our neshamos into this bodily world and raising our feet to dance higher, higher, higher, the whole shebang gets lifted.
Based on Maamer Vayomer Hashem El Avram, delivered from the Lubavitcher Rebbe's room in 1977

If it's not worth taking credit for, it's probably not worth saying!
