Jul 26, 2022

Humility is one of the attributes most associated with acquisition of wisdom. Moses was the humblest of men. Sinai was an unassuming, lowly mountain.

Humans are not perfect. Only God is. We are fallible. We are mistake-prone. Yet our mission and mandate is to discover truth. That is achieved, chiefly, via the study of Torah. The Almighty embedded truth and understanding of God in the Torah that He gave to us. But even our pursuit of Torah must be […]

One of the most rewarding things a person can do is to teach others.

Humans are not monolithic. Each one of us is unique and have a unique take on every life situation. The truth is even more granular: even within a single person, there is not uniformity. We are all internally conflicted, sometimes thinking like this and sometimes like that, sometimes feeling like this and sometimes feeling like […]

The central conflict of our lives orients around our relationship with the physical world in which we currently inhabit: the Torah teaches us that the objective of life is to optimize for the benefit and betterment of the soul, and to prepare for Olam Haba.

Our resources are finite. We must engage in trade-offs, deciding what pursuits to prioritize over others. This, of course, is all well known. But it’s more complicated: by design, we feel drawn to seek out and pursue goals that are potentially harmful and that can overtake your life. Balance is key. – – – – […]

Pleasure (6.6.18)
Pleasure (6.6.18)
May 10, 2023
35:59
Pursuit of pleasure and avoidance of pain are hardwired impulses . We all want to feel good and to avoid feeling bad. Perhaps surprisingly, the Torah fully embraces this principle. The reason why we were created, we are told, is so that we can become receptacles of pleasure. Our only disagreement with other philosophies is […]

We all need to sleep. All humans, irrespective of their intelligence, their physical prowess, their wealth, must lay down in a comatose state for several hours a day and sleep.

We are speaking beings. In fact, the central differentiation between humanity and animals is the capacity of verbal communication. The judgment that we face in Heaven is largely about how we deployed our superpower, our speech. The greatest mitzvos are performed with speech and some of the most grievous transgressions are also a product of […]

Life is serious. Pursuit of wisdom is the pursuit of truth. Pursuit of wisdom is the pursuit of understanding the Divine (to the best of our abilities). To access wisdom, we have to be very serious. But a little bit of levity – when done properly and in the right context – can be helpful. […]

Episode 45 - This episode discusses the trait of putting our full Trust in Hashem (Bitachon) which is not an easy task and quite a tall order.

A Hug from Hashem - Special Sukkot Episode
A Hug from Hashem - Special Sukkot Episode
Oct 1, 2020
46:57
We entered Rosh Hashanah and declared that Hashem is our King and we are His subjects, allowing us to move into Yom Kippur so we could reflect on our previous year and discern when our thoughts, words, and actions were not congruent with that truth. And now it is time to enter our Sukkahs, designed like His arm reaching around us and holding us close. It’s time to recalibrate back to the truth that the only power is the Almighty and that what is central to our lives is not our careers, politics, and other material pursuits, but simply to serve the King by fulfilling his Torah. In this episode, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explains why Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Hoshana Raba, Shmini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah are all connected and much, much more. This podcast was recorded for the Shema Podcast by Dan Kullman, President of TORCH, and joined with Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Executive Director of TORCH.

Released as Podcast on February 21, 2021 on the Shema Podcast by Dan Kullman (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-shema-podcast-for-the-perplexed/id1498489422). In this episode, Dan Kullman and Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discuss the unique qualities of a Tzadik (A Righteous Torah Scholar). The secular world is so pre-occupied with making their heroes people who are talented musicians, actors, athletes, or businesspeople, but whose private life lacks much to be admired. As Jews we have Tzadik’s (or Tzadikim) to look up to and admire and strive to emulate. These are people that have truly optimized themselves to become angles in this world. In this episode Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Executive Director of TORCH and host of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, joins us to share some mind blowing and inspiring stories of these Tzadik’s that will open your mind to your true potential.

The Anatomy of a Tzadik II (Rabbi Aryeh & Yitzi Wolbe on the Shema Podcast)
Jun 8, 2021
49:48
Released as Podcast on June 8, 2021 on the Shema Podcast by Dan Kullman (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-shema-podcast-for-the-perplexed/id1498489422). In this episode, Dan Kullman and Rabbi Aryeh and Yitzi Wolbe discuss the unique qualities of a Tzadik (A Righteous Torah Scholar). Fulfilling the Torah is Simple but not Easy. In summary, Torah is telling us the following: Our purpose in this world is to pursue ultimate pleasure. The ultimate pleasure we are pursuing is closeness to Hashem. The way we ascend closer to Hashem is through aligning our thoughts, words, and actions with Him. The way we learn how to align ourselves with Him is through His Torah. His ways are ways of giving. While we all have unique challenges, tailored to our unique curriculum for growth, they all have something in common and that is our Yetzer Hara is continually trying to convince us that the source of pleasure is taking, not giving. In this episode Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe and his 7-year-old son, Yitzi, join Dan with hope to inspire by sharing stories of Tzadikim who have excelled in this lofty and simple, but not easy task.
