Rabbi Moshe Aharon Pinto Shlita – Shares with us how to change our Mazal and this Friday night is the time! This is a re-post of last year at this time as the exercise is done after the Seder is over.
Rabbi Asher Baruch Wegbreit – Shares how we can elevate the Pesach song Dayenu on this coming up Seder! We are “paid” by Hashem for our mitzvot – not only for actions, not only for speech, but also for thoughts. Dayenu!
After several days without video posts – here are plenty of good videos about various topics including of course the upcoming Pesach holiday. Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz mentioned in one of the videos below that Jews tend to (overly/obsessively) focus on cleaning for Pesach to find every last crumb of chametz in a physical sense. However, that’s only half the battle – it’s also important for Jews to uncover and clean the “spiritual” chametz inside of us to help us come to Pesach spiritually clean from our yetzer harah (our inclincation towards evil thoughts and actions).

Rabbi David Kalmus – Shares how the light of the Sun is really the light of Hashem. We can choose to be the moon and be a vessel for that light.
Personal Thoughts – I liked how the Rabbi describes the benefits of faith vs. nature and appreciated the understanding of how difficult this is to actualize in real life. Chag Sameach!
Rabbi Asher Baruch Wegbreit – Shares with us some ways on how to have kavanah (intent) when we celebrate Pesach (Passover) this year. Also, he has some free giveaways available to help us enjoy the Seder.
Personal Thoughts – I enjoy learning about the many aspects of every mitzvah I do. My goal is to get closer to my Creator and my challenge is how to not always just to stay focused on the action (mitzvah) but the intent of why I’m doing it in the first place.
Rabbi David Kalmus – Shares some very powerful and poignant questions about “Who Am I?” and what is the purpose of life.
Personal Thoughts – What a great lecture by Rabbi Kalmus – really impactful ideas about the age old question of what is the purpose of my life. Perfect timing as we leave Purim and move towards Pesach.
Rabbi Trugman – Shares with us what the goals of prayer and learning are – connecting to Hashem.
Personal Thoughts – Rabbi Trugman makes a very valid point that we sometimes lose the forest from the trees when engaging in mitzvot and prayer and miss the whole point entirely which is to get close to the One who gave them to us.
