== Through Joy == The Alter Rebbe says that the avodah of teshuvah needs to be done with joy. Not only because it is a mitzvah from the Torah, but also because the purpose of teshuvah is the dwelling of the Shechinah, and the Shechinah only dwells in joy. This is understood according to the Chassidic explanation of what teshuvah is - its purpose is not (so much) to emphasize how far a person is from Elokut, but rather how much they are drawing closer to the Creator more and more through teshuvah.
