Hayom Yom 4 Menachem Av, Class Two. This class provides a second, more direct, interpretation of the comments on parnassa in this entry*. We have only what Hashem decides we’ll have. Discussion: Parnassa is decided at Rosh HaShanah with two aspects: 1. overall amount and 2. nuanced aspects of how the overall parnassa will come to fruition – the same parnassa can come in more or less harmonious fashion. Life is for Torah, “avodah” (service), “gemillas chassadim” (good deeds) – Parnassa is not life, it gives us the tools to live. Stories and comments related to parnassa.
*{In the previous class on this entry it was analyzed in the context of “chinuch” (education) and the Rebbe’s emphasis was focus on the critical foundation of a child’s future which is ruchniyus} Class Length (32:51)
