I'm in trouble on two counts.
First, Shemitah calls for a "return to God."
Me: "God, according to the Shemitah you are sending I have to return to you."
God: "Yes my son. That's the very purpose of my Shemitah."
Me: "So Lord, I'm going to have to leave you for awhile, so I can return."
God: "I'll miss you. Be sure to come back ... or I might decide to smite you. I love you."
And I'm in trouble secondly in regards to: "It calls man away from the physical realm to the spiritual."
Isn't that death? How else am I gonna come away from the physical realm and enter into the spiritual realm? Is Cahn, as a seer, speaking metaphorically? Or is he, again as a seer, claiming we can enter into the spiritual realm here and now, while in the physical realm?
