Shabbos Teshuvah שבת תשובה 2023 the Greatest Heights

We connect to Hashem through Torah and Mitzvos, creating an energy flow between our Neshama and Hashem. With each individual Mitzvah, a different connection is established. When one of those connections is damaged, we must do Teshuva - reaching a deeper part of our Neshama that’s beyond damage to correct the areas that have been affected. When that is complete, we then reach an even deeper level of Teshuva that is not about correcting that which was wrong, but access a deeper part of our Neshama, thus creating a deeper connection to Hashem.
It is said that during the 10 days of Teshuva. Hashem is very near to us, and therefore, we are able to access the higher level of Teshuva, even without the lower level, thus creating an instant deep connection to Hashem.
