| Elul - When Tshuvah Becomes My Rhythm | 24 Aug 2023 | 00:57:44 | |
"כשאדם רוצה להיות דוקא צדיק גמור, קשה לו להיות בעל תשובה. על כן ראוי לו לאדם שתמיד ישים אל לבו את השאיפה להיות בעל תשובה שקוע ברעיון התשובה ושואף להתגשמותה המעשית, ואז תוכל תשובתו להרים אותו למעלה, עד מדת צדיקים גמורים, ולמעלה מזה.” ליקוטי מוהרן ו א מי שרוצה לשוב להשם יתברך, צריך לחגור מותניו שיתחזק עצמו בדרכי השם יתברך תמיד, בין בעלייה, בין בירידה. וכן להפך, שאפילו אם ייפול חס וחלילה למקום שייפול, אפילו לשאול תחתיות חס ושלום, גם שם אל יתייאש את עצמו לעולם, בשום אופן, יהיה איך שיהיה. כי אי אפשר לזכות לתשובה כי אם כשבקיא שתי בקיאויות אלו. ובאמת זה בקיאות גדול מאוד שיזכה לידע שצריכים ליגע את עצמו ולטרוח בעבודת השם תמיד, ולצפות בכל עת להגיע למדרגה גבוהה יותר. ואף על פי כן אל ייפול משום דבר. ואפילו אם יהיה איך שיהיה חס ושלום, אף על פי כן אל ייפול בדעתו כלל, ויקיים "ואציע שאול הנך" כנ"ל. וכשיש לו שתי בקיאויות אלו, אזי הוא הולך בדרכי התשובה, ואז ימין השם פשוטה לקבל תשובתו, וזוכה לכבוד השם, ונעשה על ידי זה אדם לשבת על הכיסא. כי בכל מקום שנפלת לשם, נמצא איתך ה' יתברך. אם אסק שמים שם אתה ואציעה שאול הנך.

| An Unexpected Approach to Tshuvah | 24 Aug 2023 | 00:57:03 | |
While we generally tend to try and improve our deeds and actions during Elul, we sometimes tend to forget a key element of it all. Doing tshuvah for feeling that life itself is a given. When we start from this angle, our asking for חיים when the new year approaches takes on a whole new meaning. To sponsor a daily/weekly Shiur click here | |||

הרב קוק - אורות התורה מראש חודש אלול הבא עלינו לטובה ידעו את חובתם הגמורה לשמור תמידים כסדרם, את משמרת הקודש של שעות הלמוד בהישיבה ולהוסיף קדושה וטהרה בימים הקדושים הממשמשים ובאים בעזרת ה', בחשקת התורה והיראה, בדעת קדושים בינה, בשאר רוח, כשאיפתנו הקדושה מכנוסנו היקר והחביב, כנוס לצדיקים, בעה"י.רצוני לזרז בזה למזורזין שכמותכם ירבו בישראליסוד כל טוב, בעדנו, ובעד כל ישראל, ובעד כל העולם כולו, שהננו כל-כך תאבים להאירם באור ד', הוא החפץ הנכון שנקבע בנפשנו לקדושה ולעילוי.שאיפת בהירות השכל, והגברת הופעתו עלינו, שאיפת יושר הלב, שכל חמדת המדות הטובות קשורות בו, שאיפת טהרת החיים, טהרת המעשים, הדבורים, וכיוצא בהם כל ערכי החיים, הפנימיים והחיצוניים. ומהיכן אנחנו שואבים כל אלה, - הלא מתוך אוצר החיים האמתיים, מן התורה הקדושה, מעיין חיינו וחיי כל העולמים.כל ענין שבתורה, בכל מרחביה, שמתקשרים אנו בו ביותר בהירות, כל הלכה הנקנית בקרבנו ביותר בירור על-ידי שקידתנו, כל סוגיא שמתבררת לנו ביותר טעם וביותר הארה על ידי עמלנו הנפשי. כל מחשבה, שבתורת ההלכה והאגדה, המוסר והיראה, שמתיישבת יותר בנפשנו, הרי אנחנו נבנים על ידה, ובונים על ידה את הכלל כולו, ואת כל היקום.והננו מתקרבים בזה להשלמתנו האמתית לתכלית החיים, לרצון האמיתי של חי העולמים ברוך הוא, החפץ להנחילנו את אור החיים, בכל חסנם ואמתתם.

| Elul - Ending and Beginning the Year with Wisdom | 24 Aug 2023 | 00:56:20 | |
When it comes to entering the avoda of this time, one of the basic pieces of advice which R' Ya'akov Meir Shechter shared based on Rebbe Nachman's Torah is that it is safest to actually stop thinking, and start talking. It seems simple, and it is. Simple doesn't mean easy, but it is most definitely worthwhile. | |||
| Elul - Honestly, Does It Really Matter? | 24 Aug 2023 | 00:51:15 | |
Based on a teaching from Reb Ya'akov Meir Shechter, we began marching toward the inner work of Elul. The question we approached was a simple one. With all the insanity going on in the world, how am I to understand that my small movements toward a world of Tshuvah really make a difference in my life and int the world?

| Rav Steinsaltz's Elul Guide (Part 2) | 12 Sep 2024 | 01:05:39 | |
In this deep and stirring Elul episode, Rav Shlomo Katz reflects on a teaching from Rav Adin Steinsaltz about Tehillim 27 — “L’David Hashem Ori V’Yishi” — a chapter we say every day throughout Elul, but rarely pause to enter fully. David HaMelech is surrounded by enemies. He’s under siege. And yet, his spontaneous, gut reaction isn’t a battle cry or a plea for escape — it’s a yearning: “One thing I ask… to dwell in the house of Hashem all the days of my life.” What does it reveal about who David really is — and what does it invite us to ask about ourselves? Rav Shlomo explores how it’s not in our crafted responses, but in our spontaneous ones, that our truest self is revealed. Elul, then, becomes not just a time to check off what we’ve done wrong, but to ask something much deeper: Where is my heart anchored? What do I truly long for when no one is watching? Teshuva, in this light, is less about perfecting your record and more about redefining your belonging. It's about standing, even in confusion or failure, and saying: “Ribono Shel Olam — I want to be Yours.” You don’t have to be there yet. But you can start. elul, steinsaltz, tshuva, king david, chassidut, shlomo katz, shirat david | |||

When it comes to tshuva, the observant Jew whose tshuva isn't about starting to keep kosher or shabbos has a much more difficult task at hand. torah, tshuva, repentance, shlomo katz, chabad, elul, rosh hashana, jew, shirat david, efrat | |||
