It all depends on our preparation

It all depends on our preparation

Parasha Emor (Vaykra-Leviticus 21,1 - 24, 23)
Counting the Omer helps us prepare for Shavuot by counting each day until the holiday with care and desire to receive our Torah.
"They shall count 50 days until the day after the seventh Shabbat, and then they shall bring a new grain offering to the Creator." (Vaykra-Leviticus 23,16)
It is well known that the wisdom of the Holy Torah is different from other wisdoms, which do not require any prior preparation for study. If a person truly desires to acquire it and for the Torah to change his essence, to purify and sanctify him, then it is necessary to prepare for it by purifying and liberating himself.
from everything that might bother him in his service to the Creator, so that his body may become a worthy vessel and the Torah may remain in it.
A person must be willing to surrender his soul and surrender all other worldly affairs in order to study Torah and fulfill its mitzvot (precepts). This is why the Torah was given in the desert, a secluded place, to teach us that if we wish to acquire the Torah, we must distance ourselves from all worldly matters.
The level of preparation also corresponds to the level of acquisition of the Torah. For example, if someone is served water in the glass they are holding, if they hold the glass upside down, they will barely manage to contain a few drops of water at the base of the glass. If they tilt it slightly, they will be able to receive a little water inside. But if they hold the glass upright, with the mouth pointing upward, the glass will be filled with water. This is also true of the holiday of Shavuot, "The Giving of the Torah": the Torah they will receive will be according to the preparations they make for the giving of the Torah.
The fundamental preparations are the correction of personal qualities and improving relationships with one's fellow man. It is necessary to free oneself from bad qualities, such as pride and anger, revenge and resentment, and acquire righteous qualities. Otherwise, the Torah cannot reside in that person.
As our Sages said (Avot 6:6), there are forty-eight paths to acquiring the Torah, and a significant part of them is good qualities and relationships with our fellow man. These are the basic conditions for receiving the Torah. When these are lacking, the Torah cannot take root within us!
