About Adam HaRishon it states, "Therefore, a man shall leave his father and his mother and cleave to his wife" (Bereishis 2:24). This occurred with Yaakov, for he left his father and mother, Yitzchak and Rivkah, and he went to marry a woman.
This path teaches us how the life of man appears, also in this world and also in Olam HaBa. He goes from one rung to another, from one world to another. Sometimes he goes to a better world, a higher world. Sometimes, he goes to a harder world, as Charan means charan af, anger (as Chazal tell us). In the upper world, sometimes he goes to a higher Gan Eden, and sometimes, chas v'shalom, he goes down to Gehinom, which its entire existence is a place where people who anger Hakadosh Baruch Hu are placed.
A person's service is to sense that the place where he is in, that it is temporary. A step among the steps of his eternal path. He shouldn't feel connected to the place, itself, rather to the concept of the path, and he should use the place and the time properly, as a preparation for the upcoming stages.
More than this, it states "If I ascend to the heavens, You are there, and if I make my bed in the grave, behold, You are there" (Tehillim 139:8). In every situation, be with Hakadosh Baruch Hu. The place is temporary, but Hakadosh Baruch Hu is constant.
In Action: In every place that a person finds himself, he should sense that Hashem yisbarach is with him. Therefore, He is with him here, and He will go with him to the next step. However, the place is temporary, a step among the steps.
