Prayer

Start Praying Before Difficulty

Rabbi Yaakov Altman – Shares with us a perspective I haven’t heard framed in quite this was – pre-emptive praying. Like the phrase an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure – Rabbi Altman uses this in a spiritual sense (prayer). Worth a listen to hear this unique view.

Eretz Yisroel Weekly Torah Portion

Fundamentals in Chassidut and Kabbalah – The Holiness of the Land of Israel – Part 2

Rabbi Trugman – Shares so many interesting items relating the the Makom (the place) meaning Eretz Yisroel and also how it relates to the weekly parasha. It contains a lot of deep chassidic thoughts that present such a fascinating approach to concepts that most take for granted. For example, the relatively small size of the State of Israel and the relatively small Jewish population and their outsized Worldy significance (~51 minutes).

Jacob, Angels & The Fight Between Good & Evil

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Shares with us about how this week’s parasha can help us focus on what is really important in your life and is our purpose purposeful. Yaakov Avinu asks Hashem to protect him from Esav and protect him from his brother and what the deep meaning of this is since it appears like double talk since Esav is his brother. Also, there are many additional discussion points in this class.

Personal Thoughts – I have personally experienced a lot of what Rav Breitowitz with some flashbacks sprinkled in there. Why am I on this life journey? Money, profession, etc or is this a spiritual journey?

It’s from Hashem, Period.

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Shares some specific examples of where things in our life actually come from. The last 1/4 of this 34 minute lecture is very powerful in your face reality that is meant to cause a paradigm shift in our thinking.

It’s from Hashem, Period.

The Secret to a Great Marriage – !Short Clip! (Audio)

Rabbi David Aaron – In this past week’s parasha (Vayeitzei) we hear about Yaakov marrying both Leah and Rachel and how their father (Lavan) switched Leah in place of Rachel. This has resulted in our current Jewish custom of “checking” the bride before the chupah (wedding canopy). Rabbi Aaron shares some of the deeper meanings of this custom and how we can learn the secret to a great marriage through this knowledge. Packed with wisdom and only 2 minutes.

Triple Topic Thursday – Rabbi Breitowitz, Rabbi Kalmus, and Rebbeztin Silber

Seeing the Light Within the Darkness

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Great video going into detail about the three daily prayers and the source evidence of why we do it and where the sources for them. This is combined with the weekly Torah portion (Veyazei) that the Rav weaves into those sources.

Personal Thoughts – I learned a lot of new ideas that I can use in my daily prayers and the prayers in between. The more I learn the richer the experience which is why there is such a big stress to learn Torah because learning leads to new insights and new actions (mitzvot) which is what the whole World rests on.

Greatness Beyond Measure

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Shares with us how an attitude of gratitude for all the blessings in our life and how little we know can free us from all types of despair. The Rav’s example mashal of a seeing a bug on a leaf and how small it is in the vast universe that seems so big being analagous to us being that bug not knowing the vastness of Hashem and what He has in store for us and that its for our greatest good.
