In a room with concrete walls

Imagine that you find yourself in a room with walls of concrete. It's like a bomb shelter in Israel. Before you is a concrete wall, but it has no door or window. On it is written, "Nothing else matters but study." You think to yourself, but that can't be. The Talmud itself talks all about mitzvos. You turn to the right looking for a door, but there is no door, only a wall with no door or window. On that wall is written, "We have the mesorah. We have all the gadolim." You think to yourself, but that can't be. I know so many scholars from other groups. So you turn right again looking for another door. You are now 180 degrees from the position in which you started. On that wall is written, "You are not allowed to think." You silence your mind as ordered, but a posuk forces its way into your consciousness. It is from Solomon the King. You whisper it, "The sum of the matter is to fear G-d and observe the commandments." You turn to the fourth wall. On it is written, "We listen only to the leaders of our generation."

You have faced all four walls now. There appears to be no exit. You fall to the concrete floor and cry to yourself. Then you cry out to G-d. An opening appears on the floor. You climb through it disappearing into a tunnel that takes you through the four worlds, through the sefirot. You pass angels. You enter ether.

Suddenly, you are back in the room where the walls explode and shatter. Around the rubble are Jews of old, the Rebbes of Chabad, Rav Nachman of Breslov, the Imrei Emes, Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch, Chasidei Ashkenaz, Sephardic Rishonim, Sadia Gaon, Yehuda HaNasi, Rabbi Akiva, Hillel, Shammai, Ezra, and Solomon the King. Solomon is smiling. He says to you, "the sum of the matter is to fear Hashem and observe His commandments."

You look to your right and see tefillin on a table. You roll up your sleeve and get to work.
