yes you’re right so if you want another thing which won’t help you but connects, i heard rebbetzin heller say something really cool. she said that rabbi akiva says that this is “klal gadol baTorah.” Well Ben Azia says that “Zeh toldos adam, zeh klal gadol baTorah”

So what does toldos adam mean? it means the generation of the people. so she said that Hashem is infinite and therefore His tzelem Elokim in each of us is just a tiney winey piece of Him, so the only way to fully “get to know” Hashem is by loving all people since every person has a different tiney aspect of Him.

pretty cool…
