Mayim Rabim 5738. This single class ma’amar introduces revolutionary ideas about teshuva. The Alter Rebbe says that the “real reason” for the Neshama’s decent into this world is for Teshuva. In addition to understanding this basically (doing Teshuva after an error) there is the deeper idea: the very departure and return of the Neshama is a journey that the Neshama begins as a Tzadik and ends as a Ba’al Teshuva. Everything is predetermined but there’s a huge difference between potential and actual. Class Length (1 hour 22 minutes 31 seconds)
