  • Tanya Sources.Pdf
    The Way to the Tree of Life Jewish practice entails fulfilling many laws. Our diet is limited, our days to work are defined, and every aspect of life has governing directives. Is observance of all the laws easy? Is a perfectly righteous life close to our heart and near to our limbs? A righteous life seems to be an impossible goal! However, in the Torah, our great teacher Moshe, Moses, declared that perfect fulfillment of all religious law is very near and easy for each of us. Every word of the Torah rings true in every generation. Lesson one explores how the Tanya resolved these questions. It will shine a light on the infinite strength that is latent in each Jewish soul. When that unending holy desire emerges, observance becomes easy. Lesson One: The Infinite Strength of the Jewish Soul The title page of the Tanya states: A Collection of Teachings ספר PART ONE לקוטי אמרים חלק ראשון Titled הנקרא בשם The Book of the Beinonim ספר של בינונים Compiled from sacred books and Heavenly מלוקט מפי ספרים ומפי סופרים קדושי עליון נ״ע teachers, whose souls are in paradise; based מיוסד על פסוק כי קרוב אליך הדבר מאד בפיך ובלבבך לעשותו upon the verse, “For this matter is very near to לבאר היטב איך הוא קרוב מאד בדרך ארוכה וקצרה ”;you, it is in your mouth and heart to fulfill it בעזה״י and explaining clearly how, in both a long and short way, it is exceedingly near, with the aid of the Holy One, blessed be He. "1 of "393 The Way to the Tree of Life From the outset of his work therefore Rav Shneur Zalman made plain that the Tanya is a guide for those he called “beinonim.” Beinonim, derived from the Hebrew bein, which means “between,” are individuals who are in the middle, neither paragons of virtue, tzadikim, nor sinners, rishoim.

Border Security Measures Tour, September 2009 Location: Negev/ Sderot Discussion: After an hour and a half driving from Jerusalem, we drove into the center of Sderot and saw every bus stop cocooned within a thick concrete hood and poles with public-address loudspeakers attached in case of rocket attacks. We were told that after the sirens begin, citizens of Sderot have between 30 and 90 seconds to find shelter before impact. Our first stop was at the police station, where Tom had arranged for a meeting and tour with one of the policemen there. He took us out back to the “museum,” basically a series of shelves and cases holding the fragments of recovered rockets since they had begun to fall on the city a few years earlier. We were able to heft a few them, others were far too big. Hebrew lettering on each fragment showed the date and place of recovery. On our way to an overlook on the edge of town, we passed schools and playgrounds with concrete bomb shelters near the soccer fields and basketball courts. From the hill, we could look down on the Beit Hanoun area within the Gaza border wall and the remnants of the Gush Katif settlement district. Driving down from Sderot toward Netiv HaAsara, we passed the Erez border crossing station, now shut down to keep supplies and weapons from reaching Hamas and other groups in Gaza.
