Let The Healing Begin

I’m choosing to write about this for Parashat Shekalim because part of the story takes on a Shabbat Parashat Shekalim long ago, and because I had the privilege to be in Uman this week, to say the Tikkun HaKlali (General Rectification/Remedy) at Rebbe Nachman’s gravesite. For those of us who don’t know, the Tikkun HaKlali … Continue Reading

How Much is a Letter Worth?

In case you haven’t heard, a letter of Reb Noson has been recently discovered. It has been authenticated—yes, it really is his handwriting, etc.—and now, it’s for sale. More accurately, it’s up . The bidding starts at $40,000. (That’s right; 40 grand, 40Gs, 40K.) So, I was wondering: What would Reb Noson say about this? … Continue Reading

Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother

Chokhmah and binah parent all that we do. They beget our actions, our words and even our thoughts. (If you think what you think about, you might think differently!) Who … Continue Reading

Tu b’Shevat (15th Shevat)

The teaching of the Bnei Yissaskhar to pray for a beautiful etrog (citron) on Tu b’Shevat is fairly well-known (Bnei Yissaskhar, Shevat 2:2).
