HaYom Yom – 17 Tamuz (5)

Class Five: With the first Luchos, Moshe received 1,000 lights, which he lost after the Chet HaEgel, and now (with the second Luchos) he has them only on Shabbos. [Suggested explanation:] But with the second Luchos he received the idea of קרני עור פניו his face radiated. The thousand lights, are not able to become…

HaYom Yom – 17 Tamuz (4)

Class Four: The first Luchos is Tzadik and the second is Ba’al Teshuva. Differences between Tzadik and Ba’al Teshuva, like the Beis Hamikdash, don’t allow for a בעל מום because it is the world of balance and Tzadik, and one who has a blemish and compensates (in the Rebbe’s words: they are מצויינים they make…

HaYom Yom – 21 Tamuz (2)

Class Two: Question of Galus vs. Shina as opposed to Asleep vs awake. The “Farbrengen” of this Hayom Yom, the Pintteler Yid. 1) We see it in Mesiras Nefesh 2) (but) Nowadays we see it (more) in Teshuva. Stories for each are provided. [Incidental thought: Is the twelve step program against Torah?]

HaYom Yom – 21 Tamuz (1)

Hayom Yom 21 Tamuz Class One: An introduction (my grandfather’s Yahrtzait, הרב שאול יחזקאל בן מנחם מענדל ע”ה). Stories with the Rabbeiim. This Hayom Yom, compares a Jew to the Bais HaMikdash, just as the holiness stays in a destroyed house, so is there constant holiness in a sleeping Jew.

HaYom Yom – 07 Tamuz (4)

חסידות וסדר Class Four. סדר Though what Chassidus is, is infinite; but we are finite. For us order is very necessary. Without order our ability to benefit from Chassidus which is עיגולים בלי ראש וסוף is curtailed.

HaYom Yom – 20 Tamuz (2)

Class Two. The need for Hisbonenus, is in all areas of knowledge, even in Nigla, but much more so in Chassidus because it is meta-physics, that you cannot touch, so you need real work and thought (איבערטראכטן) for the idea to be understood correctly (to get past the משל to the נמשל). The three stages…
