Jewish spirituality

In this incredible short talk, Meir Elkabas explains Rebbe Nachman teaching that our mission in this lifetime is to find “lost items.” What are they?

Life can seem messy, even confusing. We all face daily hardships that prevent us from living the life we envision for ourselves. How do we make change? We begin by seeking the meaning of our difficulties, and dissonance becomes harmonious.

In this three-part class, Yossi Katz discusses Likutey Moharan II, Lesson 82. In this complex, rewarding Torah, Rebbe Nachman gives us insights into the reasons why we experience disorder and shows us how our awareness that Malchut (Kingliness) belongs to God, helps us live the life we’re meant to.

Repentance is an ongoing life-long process, but there is a special time God has given us to return. That time is now—the month of Elul and in this three-part class, Meir Elkabas discusses aspects of repentance and tools we can use,  based on Rebbe Nachman’s book, Advice.

In this guide to the spiritual work we do during the Sefirah period, we’ll explore the seven lower Divine attributes according to the teachings of Rebbe Nachman and Reb Noson, especially as we find them in the story of The Master of Prayer.

We’ll also use the contemporary Kabbalistic text of the Sefirah period, U’sfartem Lachem, by Rav Danial Frisch, and discuss the interinclusion of attributes, their permutations, and how they relate to us personally. Even though its teachings are rooted in the loftiest concepts, the text offers us a chance to apply them to the realm of action in a way more easily grasped.

Sometimes it feels like we’ve been there, done that, especially when it comes to internal obstacles like sadness, bad habits, and doubt.

How do we make sense of our travails, both inner and outer?

Gathered from the entire body of Breslov teachings, the powerhouse-Breslov classic, “Restore My Soul” (Meshivat Nefesh) highlights Rebbe Nachman’s teachings on combating sadness and frustration by tapping into the spiritual wellsprings of joy. This text helps us come to a new and deeper understanding of the meaning behind our feelings and shows us how to move forward.
