Think Good and it Will Be Good

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – In another live class in Eretz Yisroel, Rabbi Kalmus shares with us the ultimate solution to this generations constant battle with depression, sadness, lack of fulfillment, etc. It’s not a direct head-on approach to seek happiness – it’s to get closer to Hashem which will, in turn, result in that which we seek.

Personal Thoughts – Although there was some back and forth discussion with some of the talk’s participants which causes some distraction from the message try to stick with it as the message that is revealed is as profound as it is simple.

Finding Refuge from the Flood Waters of our Life

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Shares with us the very essence of prayer and the various hints to prayer (including the life of Noah and Moshe).

Personal Thoughts – Our lashon (tongue) is the key to freedom. The flood (problem) of today is atheism (compared to the flood during Noah’s) and the solution is prayer.

Seasons of the Soul – The connection between the months of Av and Tishrei

Rabbi Trugman – Shares with us the connection between the Jewish month of Av and Tishrei (the Three Weeks and the New Year).

Personal Thoughts – I like the Rabbi’s explanation of the number 9 and all the references throughout during this time of the year. It’s time to bring Rosh Hashanah consciousness into our life right now – it’s not too early.

When Surrounded By Darkness, Only the Truth Can Free You

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Shares with us how to use prayer to connect to Hashem and bring down from above what you are praying for into your physical being here. What we get and see here (in the physical) is a direct reflection of above (the spiritual).

Personal Thoughts – I like the Rabbi’s approach to explaining the relationship between physical and spiritual and the mirror between them.

!Short Clips!

Rabbi Avraham Meyer Zajac – Within the context of how to erase what has been written on parchment (Torah, Tefillin, and Mizuzot), the Rabbi tells us a life lesson as well – that (paraphrasing) “sometime we have to wait until our mistake has dried before doing teshuva on it”.

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Shares how our prayers for our zivug (life partner) is intimately tied to our success in parnasa (sustenance) – daily focused prayer (Hibodidut) to Hashem is essential for both to be fruitful.

Rise Above the Challenge

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – In the third live class in Eretz Yisroel (in Ramat Beit Shemesh) the Rabbi shares a five point plan of action to deal with life’s challenges that we all may experience at some time during our life. This can be viewed as a practical guide to living that is sourced in Torah which is the basis of life itself and yields tangible results in our day to day life.

Personal Thoughts – This was the first class of Rabbi Kalmus that I attended in person. Although this video blog enables anyone to view a class or classes after the fact and is designed to help anyone learn Torah in the comfort of their own space, Rabbi Kalmus does emphasize that the best way to learn from a class is to attend it live, next to view it while it’s live, and lastly to watch the video afterwards. If you can attend the Rabbi’s future classes I highly recommend to make the effort. Hope you enjoy the class!

When Broken Becomes Beautiful

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.

Finding Inner Peace

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.
