International Conference of Shluchim International Conference of Shluchim כ״ב - כ״ז חשון, ה״תשע״ג November 7 - 12, 2012 Lubavitch World Headquaters 770 Eastern Parkway Crown Heights, NY toWelcome the International Conference of Shluchim 5773/2012 The presence of thousands of shluchim from around the world has become an annual testament to the scope of the Rebbe’s enduring vision. The sheer greatness and power of this event is unmistakable but this is only because of your participation. As the Rebbe often stressed, every single Shliach’s involvement and contribution to the kinus is essential to its function as a whole. Just as every limb is integral to the health of the human body, every shliach is vital to the success of our mission: .להכין עצמו והעולם כולו לקבלת פני משיח צדקנו and לתקן עולם במלכות ש-ד-י During our brief time together, the Kinus serves as a spiritual oasis. Here we can benefit from the wealth of resources presented and the supercharged atmosphere of so many talented individuals gathered in one place. It is our hope that the experience will open new vistas into the Rebbe’s vision and .עבודת הקודש recharge us for our This year marks the anniversaries of two important dates in Chabad history: and the 70th anniversary of Hayom Yom’s שנת המאתיים להסתלקות כ״ק אדמו״ר הזקן first printing. In accordance with the message of those two auspicious events, the theme of this year’s Kinus highlights the need to use every moment to its every day brings – יום ליום יביע אומר - fullest. Dovid Hamelech writes in Tehilim its own unique message and mission. The need to maximize every day of our shlichus is integral to both: The Alter Rebbe writes in Igeres HaKodesh that on each Rosh Hashana a new hamshacha ruchnius is brought into the world. With this new revelation comes new responsibility - and what was accomplished last year is no longer adequate this year. The Rebbe applied this message not only to the yearly cycle, but also to every moment of our daily lives. Hayom Yom’s very title demands that every day be used to its fullest. The workshops, discussions, farbrengens and main sessions of the Kinus will focus on this message. The Rebbe embodied the demand for continuous creativity, growth and innovation - and expected the same from his shluchim. .בגשמיות וברוחניות גם יחד We truly hope that you will thoroughly enjoy the Kinus With trust and prayer that the achdus engendered by the Kinus will bring גאולה with the ultimate brocha of ברכנו אבינו כולנו כאחד upon us the brochos of .האמיתית והשלימה ומלכנו בראשנו The Board of Directors of Merkos L’Inyonei Chinuch Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky, Chairman Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky, Vice Chairman Rabbi Yisroel Deren Rabbi Daniel Moscowitz Rabbi Moshe Feller Rabbi Avrohom Shemtov Rabbi Zalman Grossbaum Rabbi Nachman Sudak Rabbi Shmuel Kaplan Rabbi Nechemia Vogel Rabbi Zev Katz Rabb Yisroel Spalter Rabbi Sholom B.

    ב“ה :THIS WEEK’S TOPIC ערב שבת פרשת צו, ט׳ ניסן, תש״פ ISSUE The Rebbe’s seventieth birthday 377 Erev Shabbat Parshat Tzav, April 3, 2020 For more on the topic, visit 70years.com HERE’S my STORY NOTHING IS Generously IMPOSSIBLE sponsored by the RABBI SHLOMO CUNIN In my opinion, there are only two kinds of people in this world — those who believe, and those who don’t believe. For those who believe, anything is possible, and there are no questions. For those who don’t believe, there are no answers. So, although we didn’t know where the funds would come from, we believed and — together with the emissaries we recruited for the task — we managed to establish not only seven Chabad centers but twelve. The next day, our California delegation had an audience with the Rebbe during which we presented him with a silver crown to fit atop his personal Torah scroll. I also invited Rabbi Chaim Itche Drizin, who was then working in Northern California as a Talmud Torah teacher, to join us. I asked him, “How would you like to serve as an emissary with us?” And he responded “I’d love to.” During the audience, I pointed to Rabbi Drizin and said to hen the Rebbe turned seventy, he challenged his the Rebbe, “He will establish the first new Chabad House Wchasidim to establish seventy-one new institutions. of the seven that we promised.” I had the honor of being present at the farbrengen when the And the Rebbe looked at us and smiled.

  • Wellsprings Unleashed
    לכשיפוצו מעיינותיך חוצה Wellsprings Unleashed THE REBBE’S REVOLUTION "חדש OF PRINTING THE WHOLE השביעי OF CHASSIDUS שהוא המושבע והמשביע ברוב טוב לכל ישראל על כל !Didan Notzach השנה” YOMAN - TEVES 5747 A Staunch Soldier RABBI YAAKOV YEHUDA HECHT $5.95 TEVES 5778 ISSUE 64 (141) Wellsprings Unleashed THE REBBE’S REVOLUTION: PRINTING THE WHOLE OF CHASSIDUS1 We were greatly assisted in the preparation of this article by Rabbi Chaim Shaul Brook, director of Vaad Hanachos B’Lahak; Rabbi Eliyahu Matusof, senior editor at Otzar HaChassidim; Rabbi Dovid Olidort, senior editor at Kehot Publication Society; and Rabbi Gavriel Shapiro, senior editor .זכות הרבים תלוי‘ בהם .at Otzar HaChassidim We also drew many resources from the book “Kehos” by Rabbi Zushe Wolf. TEVES 5778 A CHASSIDISHER DERHER 15 KEHOS PUBLISHERS AT WORK AT THE PRINTING PRESS. LEVI FREIDIN VIA JEM 198876 LEVI FREIDIN VIA JEM 193308 LEVI FREIDIN VIA JEM 193293 With every successive generation, Chassidus has been spread in an increasingly growing manner. One of the most important approaches to making Chassidus accessible for every person—to the chutza—was to write it down, thus making it available far beyond those who heard the maamar. The Torah of the Rabbeim was either written by them or transcribed by others and publicized far and wide in the form of haatakos—hand-made copies. Taking these fundamentally un-revealable treasures and spreading them to the masses comes with tremendous danger, and the Rabbeim risked their lives in doing so. When a page of Chassidus was seen floating in the streets, the Maggid nearly passed away from the Heavenly kitrug that ensued; the Alter Rebbe would have been nistalek if not for the sacrifice of his daughter, who gave her life in his stead; and the list goes on.

  • UNVERISTY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Spiritual Narrative In
    UNVERISTY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Spiritual Narrative in Sound and Structure of Chabad Nigunim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Music by Zachary Alexander Klein 2019 © Copyright by Zachary Alexander Klein 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Spiritual Narrative in Sound and Structure of Chabad Nigunim by Zachary Alexander Klein Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Richard Dane Danielpour , Co-Chair Professor David Samuel Lefkowitz, Co-Chair In the Chabad-Lubavitch chasidic community, the singing of religious folksongs called nigunim holds a fundamental place in communal and individual life. There is a well-known saying in Chabad circles that while words are the pen of the heart, music is the pen of the soul. The implication of this statement is that music is able to express thoughts and emotions in a deeper way than words could on their own could. In chasidic thought, there are various spiritual narratives that may be expressed through nigunim. These narratives are fundamental in understanding what is being experienced and performed through singing nigunim. At times, the narrative has already been established in Chabad chasidic literature and knowing the particular aspects of this narrative is indispensible in understanding how the nigun unfolds in musical time. ii In other cases, the particular details of this narrative are unknown. In such a case, understanding how melodic construction, mode, ornamentation, and form function to create a musical syntax can inform our understanding of how a nigun can reflect a particular spiritual narrative. This dissertation examines the ways in which musical syntax and spiritual parameters work together to express these various spiritual narratives in sound and structure of nigunim.

  • Chapter 51 the Tanya of Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, Elucidated by Rabbi Yosef Wineberg Published and Copyrighted by Kehot Publication Society
    Chapter 51 The Tanya of Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, elucidated by Rabbi Yosef Wineberg Published and copyrighted by Kehot Publication Society « Previous Next » Chapter 50 Chapter 52 The title-page of Tanya tells us that the entire work is based upon the verse (Devarim 30:14), “For this thing (the Torah) is very near to you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it.” And the concluding phrase (“that you may do it”) implies that the ultimate purpose of the entire Torah is the fulfillment of the mitzvot in practice. In order to clarify this, ch. 35 began to explain the purpose of the entire Seder Hishtalshelut (“chain of descent” of spiritual levels from the highest emanation of the Creator down to our physical world), and of man’s serving G‑d. The purpose of both is to bring a revelation of G‑d’s Presence into this lowly world, and to elevate the world spiritually so that it may become a fitting dwelling-place for His Presence. To further explain this, ch. 35 quoted the words of the Yenuka in the Zohar that a Jew should not walk four cubits bareheaded because the Shechinah dwells above his head. This light of the Divine Presence, continues the Zohar, resembles the light of a lamp, where oil and wick are needed for the flame to keep burning. A Jew should therefore be aware, says the Zohar, of the Shechinah above him and keep it supplied with “oil” (good deeds), in order to ensure that the “flame” of the Shechinah keeps its hold on the “wick” (the physical body).
