Kinaesthetic learners
Computer | Chabad.org
This suggests an interesting parallel in bringing our fellow Jew closer to Torah... we inform him that he need not wait until he fully understands these commandments, but can perform them in the manner of Na'aseh v'nishma; first we will do and then we will understand.
Wow, this just in. (hehe, I get information and realizations in chunks)
At the giving of the Torah we said as a tribe, "we will do and then we will understand", in acceptance of the Torah.
Here's the flash.
We are kinaesthetic learners. We learn through the experience.
Like doing a Purim basket this last Purim. I did it, because it's part of Purim. It was while I was doing it, experiencing doing it, that I received the 'revelation' of what I was doing.
I didn't realize that the entire tribe/soul was like that!
