Attacking the Trigger of Sinas Chinam with Rabbi Asher Baruch Wegbreit

Rabbi Asher Baruch Wegbreit – Shares how we can counter-act the cause of the destruction of the Second Temple (Sinat Chinam – Baseless Hatred) and The Chofetz Chaim deducing that it’s really Lashon Hara (gossip). The main way to nip this before it manifests in your daily life is to judge others favorably – this helps circumvent lashaon hara and sinat chinam. Working on this really helps internalize the “Nine Days” and the antidote to reverse and bring the geula (redemption).

Lashon Hara – The Deeper Mechanism by Rabbi Dr Akiva Tatz

Rabbi Dr. Akiva Tatz – Shares about a core foundational issue as it pertains to our suffering in this World and the next World on a both individual level and collectively as the Jewish people. It is the element that activates the underlying negative in everything. Lashon Hara (evil speech that is true). Avoiding speaking or listening to lashon hara is very beneficial and allows us to sidestep a lot of bad. This lecture by Rabbi Tatz elaborates on the details.

The True Power of Speech (Lashon Hara)

Rabbi Mendel Kessin – This video is actually almost 20 years old but the content really gives a very clear picture of why Lashon Hara (Evil Speech) is so destructive to us individually and also collectively as a Jewish people. The benefits of overcoming this insidious disease will help free us. The truth will really set us free!

Personal Thoughts – The video production and presentation is a bit distracting but the concrete clarity of the message was very educational for me. If you can look past those distractions (maybe even best just to listen to the audio only) it was a very good lecture. I’ve listened to some of Rabbi Kessin’s more current lectures and will try to post some in the future.
