Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman – The upcoming stories of Yaakov (Jacob) with his dream and also his sheep breeding plan with his father-in-law (Lavan) and how he uses spiritual concepts to manifest in the physical.

Like we prayed on Rosh Hashana:

A Fish on Land – Nitzavim (Rabbi Dovid Kaplan) (Weekly Parsha)

Rabbi David Kaplan – Shares the daily question of choosing life and planning on doing mitzvot resulting in a happy fufilled life. Do the job consistently and do YOUR job (not someone else’s job). Also, find the answer of what is better to give $1,000 tzedaka to one person or $1 tzedaka to 1,000 people. Hint – who is the mitzvah for – for the receiver or the giver (therein lies the answer).

KLM: Increasing Spiritual Vitality with Rabbi Asher Baruch Wegbreit

Rabbi Asher Baruch Wegbreit – Continues sharing how to increase our kavanah (spiritual intent) when doing mitzvot. He elaborates about the biggest obstacle to having kavanah (which presents us from a connection with Hashem) is rushing – this rushing tends to take us out of the present and into the future. Hashem is right here right now so by rushing we are “leaving” where Hashem is. Only by taking our time and having a settled mind can we capture that elusive kavanah. Much more content is in the video class.

Rabbi Dr Akiva Tatz

Torah & Mitzva – Male & Female

Two great podcasts where Rabbi Dr. Akiva Tatz shares with us how the World we leave in is designed with both male and female attributes on both a macro and micro level. This natural balance gives us a whole new perspective and how Torah and Mitzvot serve as the foundation of this paradigm.

Torah Cause of Reality – Written Torah

The second podcast is a bit early as it talks about Shavuot which is coming up in about a month and a half, but again the paradigm shift it reveals that Torah is not a reflection of what we see in this World, but that this World is a reflection/projection of the Torah itself (i.e. that Torah is the cause of reality).

Double Feature Monday – Rabbi Trugman and Rabbi Mizrachi

Although these two videos are from the readings at the end of the Torah they still have some relevant ideas we can take into the post Chagim (Jewish Holidays) timeframe. Both present some valuable information to improve ourselves in this New (Jewish) Year. Our Sages emphasize for us to take what we learned during the Chagim (Jewish Holidays) and sprinkle those ideas throughout this upcoming Year so that what we learned is not only internalized but dispersed in practice through higher mitzvah observance and improved Midot (character traits).

The Secret of Happiness

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – shares how the key to connection with Hashem is through the mitzvot and how the physical is a reflection of the spiritual.

Personal Thoughts – This is a very deep lecture (although there are some distractions so keep that in mind when watching it). Sometimes when I can’t get any clarity while doing various mitvot it plain just confuses me – this video helped put some things together more concretely that everything is just part of a master plan. It was pretty deep so I needed to review it multiple times. Hope you enjoy it. In case you don’t want to watch the whole video, I’ve clipped out a few “!Short Clips!” from this lecture and posted them here – http://torah-share.com/short-clips/short-clips/ – and they are all dated “(13 Tevet 5781)”.
