Re: Counting the Omer

I did last year, and it culminated in an amazing Shavuos. Currently my prayer practice has been lax, and that is when I would usually fit it in.

Re: Counting the Omer

i'm doing it. it's fab. i always think of it as a giant cosmic machine that clicks into place one part by one, removing the filters or gates between us and the higher worlds in time for the channel to really open for us at shabu'oth.
