Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – In the second live class in Eretz Yisroel (in Be’er Sheva) the Rabbi lists off five distinct areas that can initiate a paradigm shift in how we view our life and reality in general to enact an overall better worldview. This can change our mood, our direction, our purpose, and our life!
Personal Thoughts – Really enjoyed the summation of these practical steps to personal spiritual freedom! I’ve personally enacted many of these principles in my life over the past year with great results. Costs nothing to try and can yield great spiritual benefits.

Rabbi Trugman – Shares with us about the new Hebrew calendar month of Tamuz and the great potential of this month.
Personal Thoughts – Always looked at this month negatively as it contains the start of the auspicious three weeks ending in Tisha B’Av. The Rabbi infused some hope for me for what it may contain for us to grow and do tshuva.

Today is the Yahrzeit of my Uncle (Dr. Milton Raskin – מנדל אברהם בן ישראל) who was niftar (passed on) one year ago today according to the Hebrew calendar. May his neshama have an aliyah (לעילוי נשמת).
Personal Thoughts – I never really knew my Uncle so well to be honest but in the process over the past year of saying kaddish for him everyday in Shul (the Synagogue) I got to know him more, spiritually speaking. Hoping his neshama has an aliyah (his spirit reaches greater heights).

Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz – Shares about the weekly parasha (Shelach) and our struggle to get out of the desert and into the hard work of our lives.
Personal Thoughts – It’s pretty comfy to have everything taken care of without much effort but that is not the ideal state for us to do Hashem’s will

Rabbi Alon Anava – On the 23rd of the month of Sivan (כג׳ סיון) the decree of Haman (At the time of Mordechai and Esther) to annihilate the Jewish nation was nullified. The holy books teach us that this day (today) is a very powerful day for prayers to nullify decrees and anything bad, evil and horrible against us.

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – First class in Eretz Yisroel really gave some added zip to the lecture. A real treat of a lecture in less than an hour with a great question-answer session at the end. We are not in control…..Hashem is!
Personal Thoughts – This is really must see tv (not to over-hype) as he really dug deep to share with us the path to inner peace. Saw this in real time on Zoom as the time zone now fits perfectly, hope to see one in live person in the future.
