The Rebbe explains that a ta'anis dibur (speech fast) does not replace a physical fast or its tzedakah substitute, as each serves a distinct purpose. He reminds that every thought, word, and deed must serve Hashem, urging continual growth in both Nigleh and Chassidus learning. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5836

And there must be a union of Torah and mitzvos etc. The descent of the soul (Ma”h) into the body (Ba”n) represents the union of Ma”h and Ba”n etc.Excerpt from sichah of Monday night, parashas Chayei Sarah, 20 MarCheshvan 5742 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=12-11-2025 לזכות מרת מנוחה רחל בת פרומה רבקה שתחי' ליום ההולדת שלה כ"א מרחשוןולזכות ילדי'ה שמואל, מנחם מענדל ושלום דובער שיחיו מאיעסקילהצלחה וברכה בגו"ר בכל מכל כל
The Rebbe encourages remaining in one's rabbinic position with lighter duties to satisfy health needs, noting that purposeful work aids recovery. Since his efforts benefit the community and spread Chassidus, the merit of the many will bring healing, strength, and success. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5826
The Rebbe addresses a Chossid lacking vitality in Torah and Chassidus, explaining that true awakening comes from within. Reflection that weakens action is impure; instead, one must act with energy to spread Chassidus, seizing the precious time before Mashiach's arrival. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5818
The Rebbe advises continuing in holy education, noting its great need and future stability in Israel. He urges using talents fully, influencing fellow soldiers toward mitzvos and Chassidus, and maintaining steady Torah study in Chumash, Tehillim, Tanya, and beyond. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5823
The Rebbe urges using one's G-d-given influence to inspire others and utilize Tishrei's energy. He advises balanced study in Nigleh and Chassidus, channeling emotion into holiness, and acting with vigor in the mitzvah of marriage—focusing on what is essential and true success. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5824
The Rebbe warmly approves teaching Chassidus in the Kfar Chabad seminary—with the administration's consent and suited to the students' level. He stresses that such study brings inner vitality and influences many circles, multiplying its impact through students and their pupils. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5828
The Rebbe thanks for the good news of improved health and blesses for continued success and nachas from family. He emphasizes the power of positive thought—traacht gut vet zayn gut—and encourages guiding others with kindness and warmth, the true path of Chassidus. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5827
The Rebbe blesses success for the new Moroccan students and emphasizes that the scribes are full Talmidei Tomchei Tmimim, learning Nigleh, Chassidus, and davening alongside their sacred craft. Those chosen for this holy work—writing tefillin and mezuzos—bring great merit to the many. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5832
Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Chof Cheshvan What is the unique energy of this time period? Who was the Rebbe Rashab named after? What is the significance of this name, and how does it reflect the work of the Rebbe Rashab? What lessons do we learn from the Rebbe Rashab for our times? Did the Rebbe Rashab pick the souls of all the students of Tomchei Tmimim? Why did he refer to these students as soldiers going “out to a battle of the House of David”? What are practical ways to honor Chof Cheshvan? Studying the Rebbe Rashab's Chassidus Rabbi Jacobson's daily Chassidus classes What lessons do we learn from living with the times, with this week's Torah parsha? Why is the chapter that discusses Sarah's passing named “the life of Sarah”? How do we define true life? What personified Sarah's life and legacy? How can we see the evolution of Judaism through the stories of the patriarchs and matriarchs? How old was Rivka when she married Yitzchak? Why did G-d consider concealing His plan to destroy Sodom from Abraham? What was considered true justice – sparing or destroying Sodom? Why was Sarah not told about the Akeidah? Now what? Should we be running away from New York? How should we react to accidental deaths of young children, G-d forbid: Do we blame their parents? After G-d promised not to bring another flood, how do we explain the flood that just hit New York killing and hurting people? What should our attitude be towards these protests? Is it appropriate for yeshiva students to join the military? Chayei Sarah Vayeira New York City Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani Untimely Death Protesting Mandatory Military Service for Yeshiva Students What do you suggest I say at an upcoming Bat Mitzva of a relative? Suggested way to celebrate a birthday: Light candles on a birthday cake instead of blowing them out

התוכן ידוע פתגם של בעל יום ההולדת לפני הסתלקותו: "איך גיי אין הימל און די כתבים לאָז איך אייך". שהכוונה בזה היא – שע"י הלימוד בכתבי החסידות שלו, שבהם הכניס את עצמותו, יש לנו אותו עצמו כפי שנמצא במצב של עלי' השמימה; גם החידוש שנפעל ביום ההולדת שלו בכל שנה שייך ונפעל גם אצל כל ההולכים באורחותיו כו', ובפרט הלומדים כתביו באופן של "יתפרנסון", בהבנה והשגה דוקא, שעי"ז נעשה "יחוד נפלא שאין יחוד כמוהו"; את הכחות לכל זה "השאיר לנו" – לרשותנו, ורק צריכים לגלותו; ע"י הפצת המעיינות חוצה "קאתי מר דא מלכא משיחא", כפתגם ה"בעל שם טוב". כמו שע"י קריאה ב"שם", שהוא לכאו' ענין חיצוני, נפנה האדם לקוראו בכל עצמותו (וזה גם מעורר בו כחותיו הנעלמים וכו'), ומזה מובן שגם כאשר התפיסא בתורתו של בעל יום ההולדת אינה אלא במקצת, כמו קריאה ב"שמות" – תופסים את העצם כולו, ולכן יכול כאו"א לבוא למצב של "יחוד נפלא" עם הענינים הכי עמוקים של בעל יום ההולדת!ג' חלקים משיחת אור ליום ב' פ' חיי שרה, כ"ף מרחשון ה'תשמ"ו ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=11-11-2025 Synopsis Before his histalkus, the Rebbe [Rashab] Nishmaso Eden said, “I am going to Heaven, and I leave the writings to you,” meaning: by studying his writings of Chassidus, in which he invested his very essence, we have the Rebbe himself, as he exists in the state of ascent to Heaven. The renewal of his life's work that occurs every year on his birthday year is relevant and has an effect on everyone who follows his ways, particularly those who study his writings in such a way that they are “sustained by them” meaning with understanding and comprehension, which forms a “wondrous union that is unmatched by any other union.” He “left us” the abilities for all this and put them at our disposal; we need only to reveal it. The Baal Shem Tov said that “the master, king Moshiach, will come” as a result of spreading his wellsprings; just as a name is seemingly an external aspect of a person, but calling someone by their name arouses their entire essence, so too it understood that even if one only has a partial connection to the teachings of the Rebbe Nishmaso Eden (like “reading names”), he grasps the entire essence. Therefore, everyone can achieve a “wondrous union” with his deepest teachings.3 excerpts from sichah of Sunday night, parashas Chayei Sarah, 20 Marcheshvan 5746 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=11-11-2025 לזכות ר' שלום דובער בן רבקה צירה שי' ליום ההולדת שלו כ' מרחשון - לשנת ברכה והצלחה, ואריכות ימים ושנים טובות

התוכן כ"ק מו"ח אדמו"ר סיפר פעם אודות המאורע שאירע בי"ב תמוז ה'תרנ"ה ב"אוהל" בליובאוויטש, כשהלך לשם עם אביו, כ"ק אדמו"ר (מהורש"ב) נ"ע: כשהגיעו לשם, פתח אביו את ארון הקודש וחזר על חצי הא' של אגה"ק "חגרה בעוז מתני'". לאח"ז אמר לו שבפני אבותיו הק' ה"ה "כורת ברית" אתו ומוסר לידיו את ההנהלה של עסקנות ציבורית בגו"ר, ומביא אותו ל"עקידה", והרי בענין ה"עקידה" צ"ל עוקד ונעקד כדי שיהי' כפי הרצוי. התחלת העבודה צ"ל ב"מתנים" (קבלת עול). וצריך ל"חגרם" ב"עוז" – מסירות נפש! ומהו מס"נ – "אַזוי און נישט אַנדערש!". וזהו ענין ה"עקידה" [וסיים האגה"ק]. זה שכ"ק מו"ח סיפר לנו אודות פרטי המאורע של ההכנה דכניסה שלו לעסקנות ציבורית, הוא כדי להורות שכדי שהעבודה דהפצת היהדות והמעיינות שלנו, שנמסרה לנו ע"י רבותינו נשיאנו, תהי' כפי הרצוי וכפי הרצון, ה"ז דוקא ע"י ההכנה דמס"נ ש"אַזוי און נישט אַנדערש"! וכמו המס"נ של אאע"ה שלא הי' באופן ש"חיפש" מס"נ אלא ידע שעליו לפרסם אלקות בעולם באופן של אַזוי און נישט אַנדערש" ובמילא לא משנה אם בדרך יש נסיון של אור כשדים וכיו"ב.משיחת י"ב תמוז ה'תש"כ ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=07-11-2025 Synopsis My father-in-law the Rebbe related that on Yud Beis Tammuz 5655 (1895), his father took him to the Ohel in Lubavitch. When they arrived, his father opened the aron kodesh and read the first half of the Iggeres HaKodesh beginning, “She girds her loins with might.” Afterwards, the Rebbe (Rashab) Nishmaso Eden told my father-in-law that in the presence of his holy forebears, he was entering into a covenant with him and entrusting him with the leadership of communal matters both physical and spiritual; he explained that was hereby bringing him to an “Akeidah,” and that in an Akeidah, there must be both one who binds and one who is bound, in order for the sacrifice to be as it should be. The work must begin with the “loins” (kabbolas ol), which must be “girded” with “might” (mesiras-nefesh). And what is mesiras-nefesh? The conviction that it must be this way and no other; this was the Akeidah. (He then finished reading the Iggeres HaKodesh.) The fact that my father-in-law the Rebbe told us the details of this event that marked the preparation for his entry into work on behalf of the public is to teach us that for us to properly carry out the mission entrusted to us by the Rebbeim – our work of spreading Yiddishkeit and spreading the wellsprings of Chassidus – it must be done specifically through the preparation of mesiras-nefesh and the conviction that it must be this way and no other. It must be like the mesiras-nefesh of Avraham Avinu: Avraham didn't seek out mesiras-nefesh; rather, he was focused on his mission of publicizing G-dliness in the world. And since he had the conviction that it must be done this way and no other, therefore, he was undeterred even when he encountered trials like the furnace in Ur Kasdim etc.Excerpt from sichah of 12 Tammuz 5720. For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=07-11-2025
The Rebbe blesses a student who has joined Yeshivas Tomchei Tmimim in Lod, noting that early challenges mark beginnings and will ease with determination. He urges steady growth in Torah, Chassidus, and mitzvos, maintaining the daily Chumash, Tehillim, and Tanya study cycles for success in all areas. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/001/5804
The Rebbe expresses surprise at a long silence, urging renewed involvement in spreading Chassidus and communal life. He blesses that the upcoming wedding take place promptly, advising focus on spiritual and qualitative greatness rather than lavish expense, for true blessing and lasting joy. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/002/5817
The Rebbe expresses joy at hearing the writer descends from R. Pinchas of Koretz, noting the privilege and responsibility of inheriting a spiritual legacy. He encourages spreading Chassidus wherever possible, assured of ancestral merit, and reminds to keep the daily Chumash, Tehillim, and Tanya study. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/001/5807
The Rebbe affirms that Chassidus centers on caring for each individual—helping one person brings blessing to public work too. Every Jew holds infinite potential, like immense power in a tiny atom. He ends with blessings for success and health in acquiring a new home. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/001/5802
The Rebbe rejoices in the good news of improved health and in the outreach work of Tzeirei Agudas Chabad. He blesses for continued revealed good, noting that helping others brings Divine blessing in all areas, and that the joy of Simchas Torah extend throughout the year. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/001/5808
The Rebbe affirms the wisdom of entering Yeshiva even at 22, as these years form the foundation of one's life. Success in Torah and Chassidus strengthens both spiritual and material wellbeing. With dedication and will, he will surely succeed and be blessed in all areas. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/001/5810
The Rebbe replies regarding the writer's Yom Kippur experience, referencing the Tzemach Tzedek's responsum. He advises increasing Torah study, meticulous mitzvah observance, and regular learning of Chassidus—the “Tree of Life” that nourishes soul and body—and giving daily charity before prayer. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/016/001/5797
This week I have three stories for you. The first begins with Reb Zusha of Anipoli at a roadside inn, where a simple act sets in motion something that will return years later in the most unexpected way. The second opens in 1914, as Reb Meshi Zahav rushes to the Stoliner Rebbe for a blessing — and discovers that when a tzaddik says "stay," there's always a reason.And the last takes us to the town of Pandel, where Reb Chaim Veiler, a great Torah scholar, teaches us what true service looks like through the simplest of acts.

Hi everyone! Please G-d we will be back soon with new episodes! In the meantime, enjoy this Cheshvan replay rich with information on the month we are in and what we can do to bring Moshiach. G-d knows we need the chizuk! Enjoy!--Hi everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. Today, we are talking all about Moshiach. It's Cheshvan and on the surface, Cheshvan seems like a chill, catch-up kind of month. The chagim are over, we're back to routine and Cheshvan gives us the time to do so. But is that all Cheshvan is for? Like pretty much all things in Judaism, how things appear on the surface are well, just the surface and there is a whole world of depth underneath.As I was researching more about Cheshvan I learned that it is soooo Moshiach centered. If you learn from the Sefer Yetzirah or the Book of Formation, which you can read about on inner.org, you will learn that the letter of the month, sense of the month, tribe and so much more are all connected to Moshiach.To be honest, Moshiach is something I've struggled with over the years becoming religious and being religious. It's something that I am taught to want, yet also something I don't actually know that much about.So for awhile now, I've been determined to learn more and really understand more and I knew Faigy Blumstein was the perfect person to do so with.Faigy Blumstein does not call herself a lecturer, but someone who loves to share. A passionate educator and school psychologist, she is dedicated to living a Hashem-centered life. As part of the Thank You Hashem women's division, Faigy draws on chasidic teachings and the light of the Baal Shem Tov, to inspire others. Her heartfelt approach helps women deepen their connection to Hashem, integrating spirituality into everyday life in a meaningful and modern way.And let me tell you this conversation gets deep. We talk about how she got into Chassidus in the first place, how it can connect you in ways you never could have imagined, what Moshiach even means, how we can all work to bring Moshiach, why Cheshvan is the time reserved for Moshiach, how Israel connects to all of this and so so much more.We also learn about the connection between Cheshvan, Moshiach and Rochel Imeinu. Tonight, Monday night, the 11th of Cheshvan begins Rochel Imeinu's yahrtzeit and our conversation brought such a new light to Rochel that I wasn't aware of before. It is hashgacha pratis that the podcast is coming out right before so hopefully we can all use our connection to Rochel Imeinu to feel more strength and a new kind of vitality with our Yiddushkeit.Learn more:Cheshvan on Inner.orgThank You HashemListen to Faigy's Cheshvan Playlist:SpotifyApple

Chabad, Zionism & the Sixth Rebbe: Rabbi David Eliezrie with Rabbi Daniel LevineWelcome back! I share a quick update on the podcast's fast growth and my Los Angeles Jewish Journal feature, then dive into a wide-ranging conversation with Rabbi David Eliezrie Chabad/Lubavitch about his new book Undaunted—the gripping story of the Sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, the “Frierdiker Rebbe” who defied Czarist Russia, Soviet communism, and Nazism, built clandestine yeshivot across the USSR, and helped reimagine American Judaism.We unpack Chabad history and philosophy, women's learning, the “Rebbe-as-Moshiach” debate, Chabad's nuanced stance on Zionism/State of Israel & IDF, and how outreach reshaped the American Jewish landscape.Next week's guest: Rep.

This week I have three stories for you. The first begins with a powerful count who sets out to rid his land of a Rebbe — and discovers that Heaven has other plans. The second starts with an unexpected blessing from the Lubavitcher Rebbe that will one day turn a life upside down in the most miraculous way. And the last opens on the streets of Poznań, where a city gathers to welcome its new Rav — unaware of the quiet wonder about to unfold.
