Narrow Your Eyes

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – Rabbi Kalmus shows us that everything is good and everything “bad” in life is for that ultimate good.

Personal Thoughts – It’s so easy to go into Yeiush (Despair) especially now during the current lock-down pandemic times. This video gave me hope that everything we experience collectively and experience personally is for our/my ultimate good. Keep my eye on the prize so to speak. Everything happens for a reason and ONLY because of Hashem’s love.

Rosh Chodesh (Shevat) Tov!

Shabbat Shalom!

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)”.

Pay Attention to What You See

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – shares how prayer is the answer to all our problems, that your soul has no limit, how the negative forces try to keep you off your game all the time, and how you can use subterfuge to offset those forces and connect to Hashem.

Personal Thoughts – The last twenty or so minutes of this lecture (during question and answer) is very powerful – it taught me the paradigm shift I need to re-orient my life view towards the good. How do I respond to lacking in the World (and there is a lot these days if you haven’t noticed)…..prayer!

The Truth No One Wants To Say

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus shares some of Rabbi Nachman’s Torah on how to avoid pursuing things that are hurtful to us and focus on find those things that are beneficial to us and answering important questions like “why do I constantly feel despair?” or “Why do I feel sadness?”

Personal Thoughts: In the video Rabbi Kalmus gives over some practical ways for me to deal with despair and sadness. A suggested exercise about going on a news and social media diet can be found at the 49:00 mark of the video (I tried it and it helped me increase happiness). However, I do recommend listening to the parts leading up to the exercise for proper context. Also, he tells a very powerful personal story about his cousin that was in a coma and his miraculous recovery starting at the 56:25 mark. Enjoy!
