  • Shovavim T"T
    SHOVAVIM T"T As the reading of the book of Shemot is starting (Two weeks after Hanukka) it signifies the starting of a special cosmic opening that lasts for the coming 6 weeks (8 weeks on a leap year). The word SHOVAVIM stands for the initials (in Hebrew) of the names of the weekly Parashot of this time of the year: Shemot Va’era Bo Beshalah Yitro Mishpatim (Teruma Tetsave) The word that comes out as the initials of these Parashot of Exodus, SHOVAVIM means in Hebrew “irresponsible” Jeremiah 3:14. During those weeks of readings those Parashot tell us about the story of the Exodus. The Kabbalistic tradition teaches us that the story is only a code for the cosmic opening available on this part of the year. This opening is allowing us to achieve a personal redemption. The Ari in Sha’ar HaPsukim (Pages 101-126) is teaching us the more precise details of the energy of those weeks: The Ari explains that the fall of Adam had a strong effect on most of life’s aspects resulting in human pain and suffering. The most important aspects of the Fall of Adam have been corrected by Moses and the Israelites during the time of the Exodus, resulting in achieving immortality on Mt Sinai. All the tools used by Moses at the Exodus are available to us during the weeks of the SHOVAVIM. The Kabbalah Centre International © 1 The readings of the Torah, the Zohar and the special meditations of those weeks can help us in few ways: • Coming closer to our true selves • Releasing and redeeming lost sparks of light from the klipot.

  • 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.

  • ===Rabbinic Reflections
    H A R 5 N A T E M P L E e In ===== RABBINIC REFLECTIONS ===== Whose side is God on anyway? Throughout history, there have been religious leaders who believe that God takes sides on issues. They insist that God speaks directly to them, revealing God's thoughts, preferences and opinions. In the Bible and Jewish literature, many of these so called "spokesmen" for God were deemed charlatans or false prophets. They aroused more hatred, divisiveness, and societal consternation than spiritual enlightenment. The prophets of Israel were considered true prophets because they encouraged faith and commitment to the ideals of Jewish belief as a way of strengthening the community rather than tearing it apart. They were more interested in actions that would help the poor, the downtrodden, and those who were left behind, than in judging the opinions of Israelites on any given issue. And, throughout the millennia, their words have been considered some of the most stirring calls for the improvement and the betterment of society. Today, there are those who consider themselves spokesmen for God while their utter disregard for the spirit and essence of religious teaching belies all sense ol rational thought. In this category of false prophets and of charlatanry is Pc.; Robertson, the televangelist who was a former Republican aspirant to the presiden­ cy of the United States. Recently, he called for the assassination of a democraticallr elected foreign leader of a sovereign country. He has also inveighed against Ariel Sharon for being "too soft" with the Palestinians. Yet, he enjoys a substantial follow­ ing of those who believe he speaks in the name of God.

  • Ki Sisa 2019
    1 Oneg! A collection of fascinating material on the weekly parsha! Rabbi Elchanan Shoff Parshas Ki SISA It Takes a man …and each man… (Ex. 30:12). Rabbi Mordechai HaKohen of Tzfas writes in Sifsei Kohen that from this passage we see that sometimes it a person has to be “a man” in order to give tzedaka. Meaning, he has to man up to his responsibilities and overcome his yetzer harah. He cites a story from the Gemara which tells about Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa who went to purchase a wedding package for his daughter’s dowry, and on the way he bumped into a gabbai tzedakah who was collecting money for marrying off an orphaned girl. Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa took an oath in order to quell his yetzer harah that tried convincing him to keep the money he had for his own daughter, and instead was able to overcome his yetzer harah and gave the money he had saved for marrying his own daughter to the cause of marrying off this orphaned girl. Fascinating Palindromes And they shall give… (Ex. 30:12). The Baal HaTurim points out that the word “they shall is a palindrome, because it is spelled the same backwards and forwards. This (ונתנו) ”give alludes to the idea that whatever money a person gives as tzedaka, he will ultimately receive in return. Speaking of palindromes, there is a remarkable poem written by the Ibn Ezra in which each line is a palindrome, it is brought in the work Pardes Yosef. This poem takes the form of a question and answer both full sentence palindromes, about the arrival of the Messiah: “My אבי אל חי שמך ) ?father—'Living God’ is Your name—why has the King Moshaich not come The answer put in Hashem’s mouth via poetic license reads: “You "?(למה מלך משיח לא יבא should know, from your forefathers I will not be embarrassed [i.e.

    H A R 5 N A T E M P L E ===== RABBINIC REFLECTIONS ===== I am not much of a bike rider. From time to time I do attempt to ride but, thankfully, not too often. After a long ride, which I define as half an hour, my legs begin to hurt and I get winded. Also, the bicycle seat seems to be a bit too small for my posterior. Yet, bicycle riding is probably one of the simplest motions in all of sports. Basically, all you have to do is pedal, steer and make sure you don't fall down. Bike riding generally does not involve the same skill level as basketball, foot­ ball, tennis, baseball, and other competitive sports, which require not only a sim­ ple motion, but also dexterity and some athletic ability. Even track and field 8:00pm events involve a certain amount of physical aptitude. In track and field, timing is important as well as the ability to precisely sense the movements of your body in juxtaposition to everyone else.
