KLM – Part 2 – A Single Psalm is Packed with Mitzvot

Rabbi Asher Baruch Wegbreit – tells us how we can have deep kavanah (intention) when reading Psalms (Tehillim) particularly for healing to those that are currently sick. Also all the mitzvot we are fulfilling when we do this.

Personal Thoughts – This taught me the importance of having kavanah (intention) when doing the various mitzvot and a step by step approach how to do this. It is difficult to not do mitzvot out of habit but to overcome this at least some of the time can greatly increase my spirituality and closeness to Hashem. Work in progress here!

Remarks from Siyyum on Masechet Makkot

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – This video is Rabbi Kalmus Siyyum which is a celebration for a completion of learning a tractate of Talmud (which could take months of intense learning). It usually includes reciting the last couple verses in the Talmud section and expounding upon it.

Personal Thoughts – The video has some very powerful global ideas about the concept that we have to fall (sometimes quite hard) before we rise – that the fall itself predicts the rise (so its actually a positive). My experience in my own life reflects this concept so I really identified strongly with his Siyyum talk.
