[עַל־פִּי תּוֹרָה כ"ו - צָרִיךְ לְהַרְחִיק מִשִּׁכְרוּת]
**לְז' אֲדָר הִילּוּלָא דְּמֹשֶׁה רַבֵּנוּ ע"ה**

**The Fiftieth Gate. Breslov Research Institute, Jerusalem, c1992-c2016:**
*A Person Should Drink Just Enough Wine to Expand His Consciousness*
In the realm of holiness, there are two complementary energies: *chesed* (lovingkindness) and *gevurah* (strictness). These energies are mirrored in the realm of impurity.
When a person engages properly in a limited amount of drinking to broaden his awareness, his mind expands and rises, and the dynamic of holy lovingkindness expands.
The spirit of Moses exists in a Jew’s every limb, reminding it to perform the mitzvah connected to it. That spirit is attuned to a measured amount of drinking, granting a person enhanced spiritual awareness clothed in the dynamic of lovingkindness.
But if a person drinks more than he can handle and grows intoxicated, then the dynamic of strictness that comes from the Side of Evil intensifies. Then he can grow angry and forget all of the mitzvot that Moses commanded the Jews.
**For the Seventh of Adar, the Hilula of Moses**
