Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan: HaMashiach is the state of consciousness in which one knows that their Body is the Temple, that it is: HaShem enlivening HaTorah and it coming to life in the form of their Body. Not only is every Jew capable of being HaMashiach - we are expected to.

The Sefer Torah is written by a scribe, special trained for this holy task, on sheets of parchment. The parchment must derive from a kosher animal, usually a cow, and is meticulously prepared by the scribe, who first soaks the skin in lime water to remove hairs, and then stretches the skin over a wooden frame to dry. The scribe scrapes the skin while it is stretched over the wooden frame to remove more hair and smooths the surface of the skin in preparation for writing on it with the use of a sanding machine. When the skin is dry, the scribe cuts it into a rectangle. The scribe must prepare many such skins because a Sefer Torah usually contains 248 columns, and one rectangle of parchment yields space for three or four columns. Thus a Sefer Torah may require at more than 80 skins in all. The scribe makes quills for writing a Sefer Torah. The feathers must come from a kosher bird. The scribe also prepares ink for writing the Sefer Torah by combining powdered gall nuts, copper sulfate crystals, gum arabic, and water, preparing only a small amount at a time, so that the ink will always be fresh. When the writing is complete, the scribe sews the individual pieces of parchment together using a thread called giddin which is made from the leg sinews of a kosher animal, most commonly a cow, a sheep, or an ox. The scribe makes one stick every six lines of text, sewing the backs of the parchment sheets, so that the stitches are not visible from the front. Then the scrolls is sewn onto wooden rollers called Eitzei Chayim.
DOREEN ELLEN BELL-DOTAN, TZFAT: The Ground of Being is the highest level of Humility. 
The Material Universe is not supposed to be a maidservant - at the disposal and to the use of any and all, without discrimination, without dignity, without recognition, and taken for granted. 
We should be giving The Universe the very same advice that we would give to our beloved Daughters, and Sons too: 
Don’t respond to those who don’t love you. 
Don’t let everyone touch you. 
Don’t give of yourself indiscriminately to those who do not honor and value you. 
Don’t collapse into the arms of anyone who pays you the least attention. 
Give of yourself as you will to those who love and value you and notice the jewels and beauty you hold within. 
Imagine a world in which The Universe refused to respond to anyone who didn’t approach it with love and utmost respect. Imagine if metals, for instance, did not allow themselves to be smelted alike for those who make jewelry and those who make shackles, those who build homes and those who build prisons. 
Imagine if Material did not actualize except for those who reached out to it in Love and the utmost Respect and Gratitude. 
Heaven is very discriminating about who is allowed to touch it. Earth must be so too. 
That reality is not only possible; it’s where we are supposed to be living. That reality is called The Land of Israel in Torah. The Land of Israel is not a geographical area and most certainly not a political entity that can be conquered and defended by force of arms. It is a State of Being that is manifested when we attain the level of Humility whereupon though we know that the Creation will materialize to us even if we abuse it, even if we disregard it, even if we take it for granted - we do not and regard it with sacred awe.

Filipino Proverb: There is no earthly bliss not watered by tears.

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
