Aug 1, 2018

28:53

"Eikev" means heel, referring to "light mitzvos" that someone may value but prioritize as lower on their list of things to accomplish. In CORE foundation - a mitzvah connects us to the essence of Hashem - each mitzvah, regardless of big or small - connects us to Hashem. The yetzer hora could box you in "I'm not that type". Break out of the box we put ourselves into! We are the Rebbes generation, we can jump in and do it. Give our children the Chinuch of: miracles and above nature, Hashem does great things, we have a Rebbe. We put ourselves in to Mitzvos and Ahavas Yisroel above nature, and Hashem will respond in kind, with brachos above and beyond. (Likkutei Sichos Chelek Yud Tes, page 89)

Shining Sun ~ Hashem is with you, you are not alone in your #lifegoals. Be aware of the Ruach, the spirit of every Yid - I have a neshama, special, connected to Hashem - make your cheshbon hanefesh with that. Approach another yid with that too - neshama centered. Scent of Moshiach. Breathe in Elul - you can do it just as easily as you breathe! Ksiva VChasima Tova!

Chelek 16, Yud Shevat - Fruma Schapiro

Jan 16, 2019

24:52

Yud Shvat is a day to recomit ourselves to the Rebbes work. A time to dig deep and be honest in how we can strengthen ourselves in the Rebbes avodah - and with zrizus! We are here to do Hashem's work and it has to happen now! But what IS Hashems goal? "Nisaaveh Hakadosh Boruch Hu Lihios Lo Yisbarech Dirah Btachtonim." a) Lo Yisbarech - essence of Hashem b) Dirah - consistency, permanence c) Btachtonim - here in the lowest place - tachtonim in Torah, mitzvos and people. The essence of Hashem can be found in a true, permanent way, down here in this world. This being our goal - we need to conduct ourselves in these specific ways. a) Lo Yisbarech - I need to do my job because its what Hashem wants, not me. b) Dirah - as a human its hard to be consistent, i can only be consistent if I have a higher agenda - if I stick with Hashems agenda, and the Rebbes agenda (which is Hashems agenda. And where should this be? c) In Tachtonim - halacha (torah), maaseh bpoel, action is the main thing to do (mitzvos) and specifically focusing on the children! (people) Practically where does this all lead us to needing to focus in on? There must be a tremendous focus on chinuch al taharas hakodesh. We can impact our children, our schools, the chinuch of our children!!! This that the Frierdiker Rebbe had such huge mesiras nefesh for, and Chassidim literally lost their lives for, we must focus on our childrens chinuch - being Al Taharas HaKodesh!!

Chelek 17, Vayikra 1 - Fruma Schapiro

Mar 13, 2019

25:45

Empowering & beautiful sicha! Chinuch for ourselves ~ how do we view ourselves? How do we view others? Through a conversation with the Tzemach Tzedek & the Alter Rebbe, our Rebbe highlights an integral message Torah is telling us - Adam is written with a big Alef, even after the "Chait Eitz Hadaas" - because of his G-d given incredible greatness, essential to him, unmarred by his mistakes. In Vayikra, the alef is written in small - telling us of Moshes humility. Moshe KNEW of his greatness - did not let it "get to his head" and he seeked to compare himself to others, and note of their greatness. This is not just a simple piece, its a direct Chinuch Answer from A"R to T"T ~ and a DIRECTION for each of us! (Adam in Us) We must have an honest awareness of our essential greatness! We are a piece of Hashem! We must know our abilities and inherent greatness, regardless of our mistakes or our past. (Moshe in Us) And yet, we must understand that greatness can be a "trip up". We remain humble and understand the bigger picture, being able to make proper choices in life. #1 Ingrain in yourself that your talent is a GIFT, I didnt make it, I only choose what to DO with it. and #2: Seek out the greatness in others! Get to know how incredible you are and then tap into it! Right now - you have the big Alef ~ you can rise above! you can accomplish! Regardless of my previous habits, past, etc. And look at others and realize, if someone else had these gifts, they could use it better. Look at others & seek out their greatness, talent and beauty!

*This month is Chodesh HaGeulah, a month filled with joy and celebration. Yet, our hearts are heavy with the reality of what’s going on in Eretz Yisroel and for our nation right now. How do we navigate these 2 opposite spaces?* In parshas Toldos we learn that Hashem made a big miracle to respond to the scoffers, to make Yitzchaks face look just like Avraham. This doesn’t seem like such a big deal – but in connection to the language used by krias yam suf, we learn that its “a big deal / difficult” when 2 opposites are held in one space. (By krias yam suf – the waters miraculously saved the Jews, and destroyed the Egyptians – these 2 realities were the “difficulty” of that miracle). Here we also have 2 opposites. Avraham is complete chessed, while Yitzchak is gevurah. Hashem made Yitzchak (gevurah) look like Avraham – *both outside AND from the inside!* This is the difficult thing Hashem did. True chessed is chessed WITH gevurah. To pour water unconditionally, a person could drown, but to pour water with gevurah – the receiver can drink and benefit from the water – truly a chessed! *Chessed WITH Gevurah allows the good to be accessed.* What can we take away from this? Everything we learn about the Avos is a lesson for us 1) Each one of us can combine within ourselves the power of Avraham, Yitzchak & Yaakov. Yitzchak looked like Avraham is the ultimate combo of bringing together Chessed and Gevurah. A heart can carry tears and joy at the same time. With our relationship with Hashem, we can truly combine them. We could pick a time to be sad, and then flip and pick a time to be happy. OR, more challenging but also more pnimiusdike, we can contain this bitterness and joy at the SAME TIME. B”H *Joy & Fear Simultaneously *-P’ Toldos “Rabbi, how can people dance now, isn’t it inappropriate?” “Hashem changed Yitzchok’s face to mirror Avraham’s.” Yitzchok who was gevurah/fear, began exuding joy and loving kindness. Because we’re connected to the Infinite One, we can hold opposing emotions simultaneously. So we danced that Simchas Torah, and continue to do so. When not sure how to react, always err on the side of Chessed - in our homes and with our fellows. And keep dripping the Chassidus IV on every Jew you meet. They’re each Hashem’s long lost sons whom he longs for to come home. Based on Chasidus Once a Week with Mrs. Fruma I. Schapiro: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4zTTZlMbjGhnK1v06AY3DJ?si=3LT0Axe9S6WbDLJbd90ubA *We are the children of Avraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov and when the world around is in a state of horror, we can maintain BOTH the scream of Ad Mosai and the joy of knowing Moshiach is coming now!* Each one of us can aim for this goal, have moments of both emotions at the same time. 2) When Hashem was figuring this all out – Whose image was formed to match whose? Avraham was first! Sometimes we have to choose on the approach of chessed or gevurah - err on the side of chessed. Take your “Yitzchak moment” and make him into “a chessed moment”. When a challenge comes our way and we are not sure which way to respond – with kindess or restraint, follow Hashem’s example. *Better to err on the side of overly kind, than the side of being overly gevurah-dik* 3) Toldos in Kislev – the month where Chassidus gets spread everywhere, pouring out! Feel comfortable to bring messages of chassidus into ALL types of situations. Take these ideas all the way to chutzah. Spreading chassidus outward is an act of chessed. Initially, chassidus was held back (gevurah). But the essence of the Jewish people is connected to the essence of Hashem. Unity has the ability to combine together chessed and gevurah. Yitzchak should be similar to Avraham. What is meant to be hidden, Hashem made revealed. And so we should spread Chassidus...

Of the Kohen Gadols 8 garments, 3 were worn - not for service, but for representation. They needed to BE there. The choshen, the eifod and the me-il. Each symbolize different levels of Yidden, and show us how ALL are needed. Connecting to Hashem = connecting to Yidden. The Kohen Gadol brought all of us in, and only THEN did the service. Every yid is precious just for who he/she is. Now more than ever we need to look at each other as worthy precious jews. We get the strength and clarity to do this by connecting ourselves to the Rebbe. Ashreinu! That we are taught to see eachother as such precious gems. Together - with ALL of Yidden - we will walk together to Moshiach.

Really powerful sicha directing us to go forward through challenges with JOY. When we encounter our own inner sneaky korach voices trying to tell us negative untruths - we can know that there are “Hashem truths” to live by and we can go forward with strength and with joy! The Rebbe deep dives into Rashi’s comments on Hashem giving Aharon the gifts of kehuna a) a statement of joy and b) 24 Gifts show eternal commitment - why these come together and how the kehuna is an eternal Hashem-given reality. We always read Parshas Korach as we enter the month of Tammuz. From the Frierdiker Rebbe’s Arrest we come to spreading yiddishkeit to every part of the world and the final geulah. Sometimes we go through a difficult time, filled with obstacles & challenges - the message of Tammuz, and this sicha is, We will come stronger and better than ever before. We can access Joy & get rid of the inner-korach voices that try to cool us down, marching to geulah with joy & confidence! (Chelek Chof gimmel pg 123)

30 years since Gimmul Tamuz - We are bound to the Rebbe exactly as we were since Day 1. Stand strong, hold on & ask for brachos! In this Sicha we see the great miracle of the Yidden being saved from the huge threat of their enemies in the Valley of Arnon. Rashi deep dives into this and explores how this miracle happened without our knowledge of the threat or the miracle - until the Well showed us what Hashem protected us from. Hashems great miracles are happening without us even realizing. Moshe, like a devoted mother, is informed of it all and raises our awareness to sing the song of gratitude. The Rebbe wakes us up to the truth of the geulah happening - Miracles around us and bringing us to a space where we can burst into the ultimate song of Moshiach! (Chelek Chof Gimmel pg 148)

Think about moments of imprisonment or stuckness in my own life. Mentality of our Rebbe - not only good WILL Come out of this, there is good IN this NOW. Reveal it.* Today marks the liberation of the Frierdiker Rebbe from Soviet prison. “Only with the Baal Shem Tov’s approach to Hashgacha Protis was I able to make it through the imprisonment.” The Frierdiker Rebbe’s approach was that the physical & psychological suffering of his situation wasn’t suffering, but a zchus - so what was painful? The deeper pain of What is going to be with Hashem’s plan while I am not able to continue the mission of spreading yiddishkeit in the world in the best way possible. Employee vs Owner. At the end of the day the employee is satisfied that he did all he could. The owner cares about the bottom line! Did we accomplish what is needed? True for neshamos in this world - sometimes things aren't working out, we can trust in Hashem - and sleep well. But when you are the owner - it's painful that it's not being accomplished! Even if I can check all the boxes of doing my job - I can't rest! When so bound with Hashem - you are like the owner - You want the mission accomplished! What helped the Frierdiker Rebbe - and therefore empowers us? Baal Shem Tov introduced chassidishe Hashgacha Protis- everything is part of the big plan. NOTHING insignificant! Everything ties back to kavanas habriyos. ANY situation where we feel SO stuck we need to know to not despair. Despair is a liar! Ein Od Milvado! This itself is part of Hashem’s plan - grab the moment & find a way to reveal elokus in THIS situation. Think about moments of imprisonment or stuckness in my own life. Mentality of our Rebbe - not only good WILL Come out of this, there is good IN this NOW. Reveal it.

The Rebbe masterfully quotes and questions Rambam and other sources in Torah to highlight the difference of Moshe/Yehoshua (considered kings) from future Jewish kings like Shaul. While Jewish kings are anointed by oil, Yehoshua is not. Hashem told Moshe “one who tends the fig tree will eat of its fruit” - meaning Yehoshua who spent his entire life studying, living & breathing Torah - he will be the new leader . By future Kings there was a separation of leadership - the King: ruler, law, wars, needs of the people, and the Head of Sanhedrin: lead the ruchnius, the Torah angle, etc Moshe transmitted the entire Torah to Yehoshua in a unique way. Jewish sovereignty isn't just to oversee the physical needs of the people, it begins with elevating the people. Yehoshua, constantly involved in torah, was appointed through smicha,(Moshe used 2 hands and transmitted the leadership to him) This is a term specific to Torah. Original Leadership according to Torah is THROUGH Torah you lead it all - 1 unified force. One inclusive leader with “Leadership qualities” to pull nation together. Based first on what? On Torah. Shaul is first king who is the executor of Torah Moshe and Yehoshua are an extension of Torah Torah becomes the source FOR The practical work the king will later do Level of Avodah: From another sicha of the rebbe (Rebbe spoke at the last kinus hashluchim, chaya sara nun beis) Moshiach = SHLIACH plus YUD For a person to fully bring Moshiach he cannot use only certain parts of himself. He has to bring his total self into the picture. Moshiach is like Moshe & Yehoshua - both a Rav and a Melech Real geulah is to have encompassing form, rav and melech - the technicals & the Torah Each one of us may have a different strength in the style leadership that we are comfortable with. Real ultimate goal is to incorporate all together - Live a SOUL reality - where Torah flows through us and is the foundation of whatever goal we have. You have it in you! Let’s try to think of ways that we can be merging our lives into one vision - our gashmius & our ruchnius together, with Torah reality flowing through.

Sicha #174: Parshas Matos-Maasei, Chelek Chof Gimmul page 214. My body's experience and ability is the deepest expression of Hashem’s power. Menachem Av - We bring our father comfort. This week's learning sponsored by 3 individuals! Chaya Musha bas Devorah Leah & Henna Shomer both in honor of their Yom Huledes - May this learning be a zchus for a shnas bracha, ad bli dai!!* Thank you for choosing these sichos as your birthday gift! Learning sponsored also by Susan Shapiro in honor of the yahrtzeit of her mother (my Safta!) Basya bas Nessa. May her neshama have an aliyah and endless nachas! Want to get in on sponsoring? Reach out to Etty 619.757.0486 Sicha Summary Notes Ever had a moment where you were really stuck in your own challenge? In this month of Menachem Av, we comfort Hashem for the pain He is in. There are 2 dimensions of Hashem’s pain of being in golus 1. Shchina is with the yidden in Golus. When we experience our Geulah it is Hashem’s Geulah. Our neshamos are always Godly, no choice there, but our bodies - that dont reflect godliness, those Hashem chose! When we are physically (body) in golus, so is Hashem. 2. Like a king who said to his servants, if you are looking for me, I am going to be next to my son. What is deeper about this that is being added? Differentiation! Jewish Mothers - we get it! Where my kid is, that's where Ill be. 2 different situations The father feels obvious cherishing of the child, bringing nachas! Warm fuzzy feeling, my delicious child, i'm with them! - neshama part of the yid, nachas producer , neshama is never affected by the golus Rebbe adding! This is also true when it comes to the body. The body does NOT show Hashem. It looks just as coarse as other bodies. Mashal - if you are looking for me, I am going to be with my son. Ya this is my kid, i go with him everywhere he is at. Hashem is with us in our tumah . Essential connection Only in the Jewish Body (vs soul) do you see the connection of Hashems essence. I'm with my kid. Period. Hashem is ALWAYS with us. Menachem Av - Hashem is here as the father to his child. Level 1 nachas connection - neshama experience Level 2 essential connection - body experience Taking this even deeper... We also suffer loss, How can we comfort Hashem? The greatness of what the child can do > parents Like a blue eyed child born from brown eyed parents, the child reveals a recessive gene his parents have, but did not display. You have incredible power! Show up with all the emunah, all the positivity - WOW! This was always there in Hashem but not expressed until a Yid does this. We have the ability through our physical struggles, we are bringing out a koiach always there in Hashem - that had not yet been brought out. All of us showing up in Mitzvos, Torah, we are bringing out Hashems “recessive DNA”. there is no such thing as a ME struggle - don't ever feel alone, you are Hashems essence being expressed. Feel empowered! We can define the golus, tap into incredible koiach, Hashems essence pumping through us. Shift to new approach: Moshiach! (Parshas Matos-Maasei, Chelek Chof Gimmul page 214)

Sicha #178, Parshas Shoftim, Chelek Chof Daled p.121. This Week’s learning was sponsored in honor of the yahrtzeit on Beis Elul of Tzvi ben Shmuel . May his neshama have an aliyah and may his family be reunited all together with the coming of Moshiach! *to sponsor a Sicha reach out to Etty at 619.757.0486 Topic: The unique (and shocking) mitzvah of “Egla Arufa” - (“decapitated calf”), performed when a murdered person was found out in the field and the killer was unknown. The details of how this mitzvah is performed highlights the tragedy of what happened with this person. There are different opinions on which part of this tragedy to focus on, the murdered, the murder, or the murderer. Rashi focuses on the ONE who was murdered. We are all responsible for this person. We dont get to “dump” or “excuse away” the situation thinking “maybe somehow this person brought this on himself - not even using Torah sources for this” NO! We must RUN to look out for each other. Where do I put my energy? We all have to be shaken up. Am I ensuring that when ppl go on their way - they will be safe, right food, right clothing, right protection of yiddishkeit and torah and mitzvos? In this month of Elul especially, Hashem is ready for EVERY Jew. I must go out of my way to care for every Jew, not just in the city, but in the field! With the tragedy of the 6 yidden murdered this week, please take the time to listen to this sicha, and take on an active resolution to reach out to someone else.

Lesson: Try to stay away from getting stuck in black and white arguments vilifying someone, work to see the relationship underneath. Aim for the emes and deal with conflict with integrity. If someone is in a position of having influence - (beis din) - we can’t stay away from the issue. It needs to get dealt with with clarity. Clarity will shine a powerful light. If a person does end up shoved into a machlokes. Integrity will carry them. Stay true to emes. In the end it will shine through. We have torah to help us clarify issues and go through hard things, and also to know that integrity lasts and will carry us through. (Sicha 179. Parshas Ki Seitzei. Chelek Chof Daled. Pg 152.) BH This week’s sicha was sponsored by Geulah Newman in honor of the imminent Geula today. During this month of elul, מלך בשדה, in appreciation of the פנים שוחקות and miracles of Hashem.

24th Elul. Parshas Nitzavim Vayelech. Chelek 24, page 197 Theme: Living with the message that Hashem runs the world. Thank you to this week’s Sicha Sponsors: Simi Ghods & Aliza Galinsky in honor and lilui nishmas of Morah Shaindel Glick A dear friend in honor of the engagement of Yaffa Muchnik! For a Shidduch for בליומא בת בתשבע קריינדל. Iyh next year to sponsor again in celebration of good news! & L’ilui nishmas a listener’s father Tzvi Hersh Ben Bentzion, whose yahrzeit is 27 Elul *if you would like to sponsor an upcoming Sicha please reach out to Etty 619.757.0486 Sicha Summary: Rashi teaches us that the Torah is instructing us that Hakhel begins at the end of the 7 years, actually referting to the first of the next cycle of shmitah. Because what we learn coming off of shmitah connects us to the goal of Hakhel! What are the messages of shmitah? Mitzvas shmitah is generally broken down into 3 parts. Person has to restThe land has to restThe fruits that do end up growing during shmitah are ownerless, everyone can come and take them. Owner cant keep them. 3 messages of shmitah summed up I am not my own person, Hashem is in charge, Im here to do what Hashem wantsNothing in nature works on its own, its all run by HashemNothing that i think is mine is really mine, it's all Hashems and Im Hashems Shliach to use it How do they connect with Hakhel? The portions of the Torah the King reads at Hakhel directly connects to these messages: Shema - Kabalos Ol, Hashem is in charge of my world. You dont have to worry, i can be calm relaxed and happyVehaya - what makes things grow? When I follow the will of Hashem. What keeps us safe? Hashem! My missiles are my mitzvahs!Maaser/Tzedakah - I don’t even own it! Its hashems, I get to be Hashem’s shliach and direct the money where it should go.Tzedakah is not out of goodness of my heart, its the RIGHT thing to do. This applies to every area for things we think we own. Hashems in charge, and we get to be the shliach! Our shlichus, a talent, our children, it's not for me and about me, it's what does hashem want me to do with THIS? Who gives us this message in the most powerful way possible? The melech! The king. As Chassidim we know what it means to be the Rebbe’s messenger, to be botul to the King. Reaffirm these messages: Hashem takes care of me & my world. Let me seek out Hashem’s mission. Stay in the world of Torah, take this experience and go back into my day to day life - but now with the messages of Shmitah/Hakhel - I can be calm, Hashem’s got me, I can be happy, calm and present - put my efforts in, use my Hashem sense of direction, and not stress about the results.

Chelek 24, Rosh Hashana 2 - Fruma Schapiro

Oct 2, 2024

32:03

Theme: It’s Time to Shake Up the Satan! It's time to shake up the Satan! Our attitude is going to make the Satan lose his footing! We are confident that Hashem already gave us a shana tova umetukah! We want to go into Rosh Hashana without the voice of the Satan at all! Some customs we do to mix up the Satan: NOT speaking about Rosh Chodesh in the Tefillos of Rosh Hashana, by NOT blowing shofar erev RH, by not bentching the chodesh on Shabbos Mevorchim, we dont start Shabbos Bereishis until after Simchas Torah, plus blowing shofar all Elul confuses the Satan, we blow numerous times throughout RH so even that throws the Satan off. This idea seems silly. The Satan is no fool. He’s been around every year. This idea is not to confuse him WHEN Rosh Hashana is, its deeper: We will fool him with our approach, our attitude that we take this Rosh Hashana! CONFIDENT stand! We go into Rosh Hashana fully confident we are already sealed for a Shana Tova Umesuka!Tremendous Hisorerus from deep within me. I dont want the Satan in my life anymore, this deep inner shofar voice can push me in a way other things cannotKnow that sometimes there are things we CAN do to connect to Hashem bsimcha, and sometimes there are things we CANNOT do - this also connects us to Hashem, bsimcha! Shana Tova Umesukah with true open revealed brachos with Moshiach! Erev Rosh Hashana, 29 Elul, Chelek Chof Daled, page 222 Sicha Sponsors: *Huge Mazal Tov to Mrs. Schapiro for her new grandson born today, Boruch Hashem! *This week’s sicha is sponsored by Hentcha Zavdi in appreciation to Etty & Mrs. Schapiro for helping us stay connected and learn in such a clear, enjoyable, practical way. And as a zchus for Chassidishe, Gezunte and Freiliche children. *and sponsored by Libby Oster לזכות ולרפואה שלימה לאהרן בן חנה בטוב הנראה והנגלה!

A Listener who wishes everyone a Gmar Chasima Tova, & a year full of revealed brochos for everyone! THEME: Taking Teshuva to a whole new level! Pnimiyus Teshuva, every yid wants one thing - to be connected to Hashem I don’t feel it! Main thing is STEP into the mikvah - try! Depth of the relationship WILL unfold (rabbi akiva) Sometimes where I am right now I can't see that in myself - but all I need to do is take a STEP, move forward, and then Hashem will take things to the next level! Certain situations I stand in and only see Golus, but I can be in my struggle, in my golus and tap into perspective - see “the laughter of Rabbi Akiva” see the future - and tap into future Geulah in today's Golus.
