Odcinek #213, w którym z Bohdanem Zadurą siedzimy w pokoju, w którym na co dzień pracuje w swoim mieszkaniu w Puławach i rozmawiamy o pracy tłumacza.Zaczynamy od S jak szuflady tłumacza, w której cały czas czekają kolejne teksty. Od razu okazuje się, że tłumacz jest ambasadorem pisarzy i w głowie nosi całe fabuły, z przekładanych przez siebie na język polski książek.Drążymy dalej, pytam o H jak hotel Zadura - metaforyczne miejsce, w którym pomieszkują różni pisarze. Dowiaduję się, kto w tym miejscu może zamieszkać, kto jest stałym bywalcem, kto wpada sporadycznie.O swojej drodze zawodowej Bohdan Zadura opowiada z rozbrajającą S jak szczerością.Dopytuję o relacje tłumacz - pisarz i sprawdzam, czy trzeba lubić pisarza, którego tekst bierze się na warsztat.A co z poetyką? Czy musi być bliska tłumaczowi, jeśli tłumacz sam też jest pisarzem, poetą? To też ustalamy podczas spotkania. Pojawia się W jak wojna i T jak tłumaczenie jako odruch wynikający z bezradności. Rozmawiając przeglądamy prywatną bibliotekę Bohdana Zadury.Pointą niespodziewanie staje się gorzka opowieść o książkach, które przychodzą do domu. A na koniec dostaje mi się książka.

The story is told that on one Erev Rosh Hashanah, Rav Bunim of Peshischa came to his Rebbe, the Chozeh of Lublin, to receive a berachah. However, he noticed that the Chozeh was hesitant. At the time, Rav Bunim had a successful business, but the Chozeh revealed to him that he had seen a decree in Heaven that during the coming year, Rav Bunim would lose all of his parnassah. On Yom Kippur, Rav Bunim poured out his heart in tefillah, with sincere tears and deep emotion. Though his business later faced serious challenges and was nearly shut down, not only was it saved — his parnassah actually doubled. When Rav Bunim returned to the Chozeh on Erev Pesach, the Rebbe greeted him warmly and told him he knew with certainty that Rav Bunim's tefillah on Yom Kippur had shaken the heavens and changed the decree from hardship to great blessing. This story reminds us that our tefillot can do wonders, but only if we truly believe in their power. The Nefesh Shimshon explains that when Avraham Avinu established the tefillah of Shacharit, he didn't merely create a morning prayer; he infused it with his own spiritual energy and power. Every time we pray Shacharit, we do so with the merit and spiritual momentum of Avraham Avinu behind us. The same is true for Yitzchak Avinu, who established Minchah, and Yaakov Avinu, who established Arbit. These tefillot were not only composed — they were charged with the deepest essence of the Avot, and that strength continues to support our prayers today. Similarly, every time a person opens a Tehillim, they are not just reading words on a page — they are connecting to the neshama of David HaMelech. Each word of Tehillim is imbued with his spiritual strength, his longing, his struggles, and his closeness to Hashem. Hashem is already close to us, waiting to hear our every word. But now we understand that our tefillot are not coming from us alone — they are carried by the koach of those who established them. Chazal teach us that there is special power in a tefillah that comes with kavanah and tears. When we realize just how valuable our prayers are and how much they can accomplish, we gain new strength and motivation to pray with deeper emotion and sincerity. One woman shared her personal experience: she had been struggling with shidduchim for years. The suggestions that came her way were few and far between, and none of them seemed right. Still, she prayed daily to Hashem to send her the right zivug. What kept her emotionally afloat was the fact that she had good friends that she was close to, and then one day out of nowhere, one of her closest friends who had gotten married told her she would no longer be able to continue their relationship. This news was devastating to her. She spoke to this friend every day. She was her lifeline of support. Shortly afterward, she traveled to Eretz Yisrael. Before returning home, she went to the Kotel to pray. Instead of complaining and bemoaning her fate, she decided to channel all of her pain and emotion into the most heartfelt tefillah. She cried to Hashem for her zivug and in her words, it was the most powerful tefillah she had ever made. The very next day, upon returning home, she received a call from a shadchan with a new suggestion — the man she would soon marry. These stories illustrate that tefillah has the power to change everything. It is up to us to believe that Hashem is listening, and that every word we say matters. We are never alone. When we pray with heart and connect genuinely to Hashem, we can draw down brachot that are far beyond anything we could expect. As the pasuk says: קָרוֹב ה' לְכָל־קֹרְאָיו לְכֹל אֲשֶׁר יִקְרָאֻהוּ בֶאֱמֶת (Tehillim 145:18) Let us strengthen ourselves to approach tefillah not as a routine, but as a living bridge to the Ribbono Shel Olam — a moment to pour out our soul, to draw from the merit of the Avot and tzaddikim, and to unlock the gates of blessing with every sincere word we say.

Dwa tie-breaki wieńczące siatkarskie thrillery zadecydowały o awansie do finału PlusLigi. W szranki o złoto stanie Aluron CMC Warta Zawiercie naprzeciw Bogdanki LUK Lublin - jak obie ekipy przełamały opór swoich półfinałowych rywali i kto faworytem do końcowego triumfu? JSW Jastrzębski Węgiel nie obroni tytułu mistrza Polski, a PGE Projekt Warszawa otarł się o finał - czego zabrakło? I czy po tak wyrównanych półfinałach w ogóle można powiedzieć, że komuś czegoś brakowało?

W audycji również rzut oka na ligę angielską, gdzie FC Liverpool zapewnił sobie mistrzostwo. Ponadto, wspomnienie papieża Franciszka w kontekście jego pasji do piłki nożnej. 

Lublin to nie tylko miasto wielokulturowe, ale też wielowyznaniowe. Szlakiem pod hasłem „Lublin wielu wyznań” od Katedry Prawosławnej Przemienienia Pańskiego aż do  Kościoła Ewangelicko-Augsburskiego pw. Trójcy Świętej prowadzi nas przewodniczka Agnieszka Malinowska-Mikołajczyk.

Czy Lublin jest miastem pełnym tajemnic? Przewodniczka Patrycja Serafin prowadzi nas śladem tajemniczych lubelskich historii, gdzie królują magiczne postacie, legendy, anioły, diabły i duchy. Jest to niezwykła opowieść tkana zarówno ze zdarzeń historycznych, jak i legend, bo w historii Lublina nigdy nie brakowało cudownych i tajemniczych wydarzeń, czy też żyjących w nim osób o mistycznej sile. 

Bursztyn można znaleźć nie tylko nad Bałtykiem. Jego pokłady są też na Lubelszczyźnie. Wszystko zaczęło się w epoce eocenu, gdy terytorium dzisiejszej Polski pokryte było w większości morzem. Dr Lucjan Gazda, geolog i kolekcjoner bursztynów oraz skamieniałości dotarł do dokumentu z XVII wieku, który pokazuje, że przez Lublin przebiegał szlak bursztynowy. Ciekawa jest w nim historia "aresztowanej" beczki z tym cennym kruszcem. Historia beczki zainspirowała artystkę Krystynę Rudzką - Przychodę do namalowania cyklu obrazów. Wraz z Lucjanem Gazdą zorganizowali wystawę (kolejną w ich wieloletniej współpracy) poświęconą historii bursztynu i lubelskiego wątku zawartego w dokumentach odnalezionych w archiwum we Lwowie.Fot. Krystyna Rudzka Przychoda i Lucjan Gazda autorzy wystawy "Nº HKZ Lublin 1631" w Muzeum Historii Miasta Lublina.

W audycji również m.in. analiza postawy Legii Warszawa i Jagiellonii Białystok w Lidze Konferencji Europy oraz rzut oka na rozczarowujące wyniki piłkarzy Widzewa i ŁKS w ostatnich tygodniach.

Nie zawiedli faworyci z Jastrzębia, PGE Projektu Warszawy i Aluronu CMC Warty Zawiercie, ale ich mecze specjalnie nas nie zauroczyły. Jedynie ZAKSA skrzętnie wykorzystała mankamenty wyżej notowanego w rundzie zasadniczej rywala i odniosła bardzo przekonywujące zwycięstwo. Asseco Resovia staje do walki o Puchar CEV, finałowym rywalem Ziraat Bankasi Ankara, który w półfinale okazał się lepszy od Itasu Trentino - czy rzeszowianie obronią trofeum?

At the beginning of this week's parasha , Titzaveh , Bneh Yisrael were commanded to bring שמן זית זך —pure olive oil—to light the menorah . Only the very first droplets from each olive were permitted for this purpose. Chazal tell us that although only 12 hours' worth of oil was placed in the lamps, the flames miraculously burned for a full 24 hours—demonstrating Hashem's presence among the Jewish people. The menorah represented the light of Torah. The Gemara states that whoever wishes to attain wisdom in Torah should face slightly southward while reciting the Amida , because the menorah , which symbolizes Torah wisdom, stood in the southern part of the Beit HaMikdash . The power of Torah is far beyond our comprehension. The Midrash tells us that Shlomo HaMelech constructed ten menorot for the Beit HaMikdash , each with seven lamps, totaling 70 flames—corresponding to the 70 facets of Torah. Chazal further teach that as long as those flames were burning, the 70 nations of the world remained subservient to Am Yisrael . But from the day those flames were extinguished, those nations gained power over us. All of our strength comes from Torah. The Sefer Sas Be'Imratecha records a powerful story about Rabbi Moshe Chevroni, the former Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivat Chevron . At one point, he wasn't feeling well and went to the doctor for an evaluation. After running tests, the doctor informed him that he had been diagnosed with a serious illness and had only three months left to live. His family and talmidim were devastated. But instead of falling into despair, the Rosh Yeshivah made a firm decision—he would dedicate these final months to learning Torah without interruption , stopping only for the most basic necessities. And so he did. He immersed himself in Torah study, and Baruch Hashem , instead of living for just three more months, he lived for another 20 years. The Steipler Gaon , upon hearing this, remarked in amazement, "Hashem gave him a blow, but instead of breaking from it, he elevated himself—and the merit of his Torah added 20 years to his life." What was even more astonishing was that throughout those two decades, he never required treatments that would prevent him from learning. He continued delivering his regular shiurim and prayed with the yeshiva minyan every single day. The Chozeh of Lublin once had a long line of people waiting to see him for berachot and advice. Suddenly, in the middle of his appointments, he asked everyone to step out of the room for a few moments. Once the room was empty, he locked the door. One of his chasidim , eager to learn from the Rebbe , hid inside the room to see what he was going to do. To his astonishment, he saw the Rebbe take out a Mishnayot and begin learning a perek . Unable to contain his curiosity, the chasid revealed himself and asked, "Rebbe, why did you send everyone out just to learn a perek of Mishnayot?" The Chozeh replied, "The last few people who came to me shared their suffering and begged for salvation. I felt that in order to give them a proper beracha, I needed the strength of Torah within me—so I paused to learn first." All of our great rabbanim who had the power to give berachot drew that strength from their Torah learning and purity of character. We must treasure the Torah we have and use our time wisely to learn it in depth. It provides us with the spiritual energy we need to succeed in this world. Shabbat Shalom.

El viernes, al caer la noche, cada uno pasaba para saludar al rabí por el sábado. Cuando le tocó el turno al rico que estaba allí de visita, el rabí le estrechó la mano y le dijo: «Bienvenido». El caballero se sorprendió por el saludo y le dijo: «Pero rabí, usted ya me dio la bienvenida cuando llegué». «Sí, tiene razón -reconoció el líder religioso-sin embargo, noté durante las oraciones que usted parecía muy preocupado, puesto que sus negocios tienen que ver con el envío de mercadería a distintos lugares, su mente se hallaba en el puerto, controlando los envíos, pero su cuerpo permanecía aquí, en la sinagoga de Lublin. Ahora que su mente volvió, corresponde que le dé la bienvenida».Al dar la bienvenida al primer sábado del año conviene que recordemos que este día es más que reposo y adoración, es un día de comunión con el Creador en el que nos desconectamos de nuestras actividades cotidianas para conectarnos con Dios y con nuestro prójimo.En el libro Vivir el futuro hoy, Sakae Kubo señala que «cuando llega el sábado, entramos, como huéspedes, ante la presencia del gran Rey. Y cuando entramos en la casa de Dios, lo hacemos como huéspedes. El sábado encuentra su cumplimiento únicamente cuando alcanzamos la verdadera comunión con Dios y con su pueblo. Y, como todas las comuniones, ello nos debería llevar a una amistad y a una unidad de mente cada vez más profunda».Te invito a reflexionar sobre este y cada sábado del año como una cariñosa invitación del Soberano del universo a conectar con él y con nuestros semejantes. Dios, a través de Isaías, nos asegura que al apartarnos de las rutinas diarias y entrar en comunión con él cada sábado, no solo nos convertiremos en sus huéspedes distinguidos, sino que también experimentaremos alegría y bendición. ¿Te gustaría ser el huésped de honor en la presencia de Dios en este día?

Při návštěvě polského města Lublin se dozvíte, co je to Poetry Jam. Pokud nevíte, jak se jmenuje typický bejrútský drink s olivou, tak vám to reportér Českého rozhlasu prozradí. A podíváte se také, jak slaví svatou Lucii ve Skandinávii.

Tlumené světlo pohlcené neomítnutými cihlovými stěnami bývalé tiskárny, verše vyplňujících ticho místnosti a improvizovaná hudba dotvářející atmosféru předneseného. Tak vypadá Poetry jam – performativní poezie propojující autorské básně s hudbou, která vzniká tady a teď. Střediskem tohoto žánru se v Polsku pomalu stává Lublin, respektive zdejší Dům slov, kam láká stále více účinkujících i posluchačů.

Full Text of ReadingsTuesday of the Twenty-ninth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 474The Saint of the day is Saint John Paul IISaint John Paul II's Story “Open wide the doors to Christ,” urged John Paul II during the homily at the Mass where he was installed as pope in 1978. Born in Wadowice, Poland, Karol Jozef Wojtyla had lost his mother, father, and older brother before his 21st birthday. Karol's promising academic career at Krakow's Jagiellonian University was cut short by the outbreak of World War II. While working in a quarry and a chemical factory, he enrolled in an “underground” seminary in Kraków. Ordained in 1946, he was immediately sent to Rome where he earned a doctorate in theology. Back in Poland, a short assignment as assistant pastor in a rural parish preceded his very fruitful chaplaincy for university students. Soon Fr. Wojtyla earned a doctorate in philosophy and began teaching that subject at Poland's University of Lublin. Communist officials allowed Wojtyla to be appointed auxiliary bishop of Kraków in 1958, considering him a relatively harmless intellectual. They could not have been more wrong! Bishop Wojtyla attended all four sessions of Vatican II and contributed especially to its Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World. Appointed as archbishop of Kraków in 1964, he was named a cardinal three years later. Elected pope in October 1978, he took the name of his short-lived, immediate predecessor. Pope John Paul II was the first non-Italian pope in 455 years. In time, he made pastoral visits to 124 countries, including several with small Christian populations. John Paul II promoted ecumenical and interfaith initiatives, especially the 1986 Day of Prayer for World Peace in Assisi. He visited Rome's main synagogue and the Western Wall in Jerusalem; he also established diplomatic relations between the Holy See and Israel. He improved Catholic-Muslim relations, and in 2001 visited a mosque in Damascus, Syria. The Great Jubilee of the Year 2000, a key event in John Paul's ministry, was marked by special celebrations in Rome and elsewhere for Catholics and other Christians. Relations with the Orthodox Churches improved considerably during his papacy. “Christ is the center of the universe and of human history” was the opening line of John Paul II's 1979 encyclical, Redeemer of the Human Race. In 1995, he described himself to the United Nations General Assembly as “a witness to hope.” His 1979 visit to Poland encouraged the growth of the Solidarity movement there and the collapse of communism in central and eastern Europe 10 years later. John Paul II began World Youth Day and traveled to several countries for those celebrations. He very much wanted to visit China and the Soviet Union, but the governments in those countries prevented that. One of the most well-remembered photos of John Paul II's pontificate was his one-on-one conversation in 1983, with Mehmet Ali Agca, who had attempted to assassinate him two years earlier. In his 27 years of papal ministry, John Paul II wrote 14 encyclicals and five books, canonized 482 saints and beatified 1,338 people. In the last years of his life, he suffered from Parkinson's disease and was forced to cut back on some of his activities. Pope Benedict XVI beatified John Paul II in 2011, and Pope Francis canonized him in 2014. Reflection Before John Paul II's funeral Mass in St. Peter's Square, hundreds of thousands of people had waited patiently for a brief moment to pray before his body, which lay in state inside St. Peter's for several days. The media coverage of his funeral was unprecedented. Presiding at the funeral Mass, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger—then dean of the College of Cardinals and later Pope Benedict XVI—concluded his homily by saying: “None of us can ever forget how, in that last Easter Sunday of his life, the Holy Father, marked by suffering, came once more to the window of the Apostolic Palace and one last time gave his blessing urbi et orbi (‘to the city and to the world'). “We can be sure that our beloved pope is standing today at the window of the Father's house, that sees us and blesses us. Yes, bless us, Holy Father. We entrust your dear soul to the Mother of God, your Mother, who guided you each day and who will guide you now to the glory of her Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.” Learn more about Saint John Paul II! Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

The Shulhan Aruch (Orah Haim 584) writes that Hallel is omitted from the service on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, despite the fact that we recite Hallel on every other Yom Tob (listen to audio recording for precise citation). The Mishna Berura (commentary by Rav Yisrael Meir Kagan of Radin, 1839-1933) explains (listen to audio recording for precise citation) that we omit Hallel because the festive singing of Hallel is inappropriate on these days of judgment, when the books of life and death are opened before God. The festive nature of Hallel is incongruent with the fear and dread we experience on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur as we stand in judgment before God. The Mishna Berura adds that although we are confident on Rosh Hashanah that we will earn a favorable judgment, as God is a compassionate and loving judge, nevertheless, we must experience a sense of fear and dread. Interestingly enough, the Mishna Berura writes that the feelings of fear and anxiety experienced on Rosh Hashanah are themselves a source of merit for us as we stand in judgment, and help ensure a favorable outcome. Therefore, despite our confidence, we do not recite Hallel, as this festive reading in inconsonant with the emotions we are to feel on these days. The Mishna Berura adds, however, that one who reads Tehillim on Rosh Hashanah may include the chapters of Hallel in his reading, since he reads them as prayer and not as a festive Hallel service. In this Siman, the Shulhan Aruch also discusses the proper procedure for the Torah reading on Rosh Hashanah. Two Sifreh Torah are removed from the ark, and, on the first day of Rosh Hashanah, we read from the first Torah the section in Bereshit that tells of Yishak's birth, until (and not including) the narrative of the Akeda. We make five Aliyot in this section, except when Rosh Hashanah falls on Shabbat, in which case we make seven Aliyot. For the Maftir reading, we read the verses from the Book of Bamidbar that describe the Musaf offering on Rosh Hashanah. The Haftara reading for the first day of Rosh Hashanah comes from the beginning of the Book of Shemuel, and tells the story of the birth of Shemuel and the song sung by his mother, Hanna, after his birth. The Mishna Berura explains that we read these stories because, according to tradition, it was on Rosh Hashanah that Sara and Hanna (as well as Rahel) conceived after many years of infertility. It is customary on Rosh Hashanah to recite many Piyutim (liturgical hymns). These prayers were written by renowned and righteous Sadikim, and nobody should make the mistake of questioning or underestimating their importance. These are sacred prayers that must be carefully recited with seriousness and concentration. One certainly should not involve himself with other activities – even Torah learning – when the congregation recites Piyutim. Care should also be taken to recite the text in precise accordance with the community's custom. The Maharshal (Rabbi Shlomo Luria of Lublin, Poland, 16th century) records an incident where a Rabbi of a certain community changed the text of a Piyut on one occasion, in deference to a Rabbi who was visiting from another country, where a different text was used. Tragically, that Rabbi lost a child during the following year. The Rabbi proclaimed that this tragedy was a punishment for the grave sin of tampering with his community's customs by changing the prayer text. The customs regarding the Piyutim, like all our customs, were established by outstanding Sadikim, and each community must carefully and strictly follow its time-honored traditions. It has been noted that the word "Minhag" ("custom") has the same letters as the word "Gehinam," indicating that by following our traditions, we are protected from the fires Gehinom and are deemed worthy of a favorable judgment. Summary: Hallel is not recited as part of the prayer service on Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur, but one who recites Tehillim on these days may include the chapters of Tehillim. On the first day of Rosh Hashanah, we read (as the Torah and Haftara readings, respectively) the stories of Yishak's birth and Shemuel's birth, because it was on Rosh Hashanah when their mothers conceived after many years of infertility. It is critically important to recite the traditional Piyutim (hymns) on Rosh Hashanah, and to use the precise text, each community according to its custom.

Is Teshuvah a return to an untouched state of purity, or an acceptance of the past mistakes and experiences that have led us to where we are today? A deeply moving teaching from Rav Tzadok of Lublin about the conversation between growth and self-acceptance in the journey of Teshuvah, and on how the darker parts of our journey are the most generative parts, too.

With more than 9,000 MS researchers and clinicians in attendance, the 2024 ECTRIMS meeting in Copenhagen was the largest MS research conference in the world. During the meeting, I had an opportunity to talk with some of the best and brightest minds in MS research and clinical practice. This is your invitation to listen in on my ECTRIMS EXTRA conversation with Dr. Fred Lublin. Dr. Fred Lublin is the Director of the Corrine Goldsmith Dickinson Center for Multiple Sclerosis at Mount Sinai. He participated in the development of the very first disease-modifying therapy that was approved for MS. When we talk about relapsing-remitting MS, secondary-progressive MS, or primary-progressive MS, we're using the clinical course descriptions of MS that were developed and subsequently updated by Dr. Lublin and his colleagues. At ECTRIMS, Dr. Lublin gave a presentation on the need to update the way we think about and talk about multiple sclerosis by, once again,  updating those clinical course descriptors.

This week's guest is Piotr Maruszewski. Piotr is the Short Sprints and Hurdles Coach at the UMCS University of Lublin, Poland, and has held the position of Polish Athletics National Team Coach, where he prepared athletes for major events at the international stage, as well as being a current speed climbing national team coach. Piotr is a strength and conditioning Coach with solid track and field roots, specializing in multi-sport speed development. Piotr has studied from many of the greatest coaching minds in the world and has helped athletes to incredible results. Although traditional strength training and sprint constraints can be effective, it's important to question whether there are not more specific methods available. Of the many tools in the training toolkit, some of the most powerful include the family of fast eccentric and oscillatory isometric training. On today's podcast, Piotr discusses the nature of rhythm in hurdling, an angular approach to sprinting, and takeaways from his learning with Adarian Barr. He also discusses bodyweight isometric holds and special strength training methods for his athletes, centering around how he works the fast eccentric and isometric overloads for the elastic and muscular archetypes. Piotr has learned from many of the greatest minds in the world of training and has gotten tremendous results from his brilliant integration.

"If I can provide a value to whoever is going to listen to our conversation, explore levers and their role in human body's motion." “The fastest soccer players are absolutely squatted runners” “So I'm finding those, those very short oscillatory motions and being on the under, you know, Kaiser squat, you know, the, the compressed air. It's. It's absolutely like, like a cornerstone of my strength training programming to, through whatever population I'm working with soccer players, handball hand, female handball players, speed climbers, and, of course, my sprinters and hurdlers” “I'm not interested in supramaximal eccentric training, I'm interested in super fast eccentric training” “We are the combination of muscles that pull, and strings that transfer the forces; but the only forces that the muscles create is pulling from the inside, and even when you push something, your muscles are pulling” “I apply a light sled to the squatted run, because then the sense of pulling is increased” “Various types of ISO are the pinnacle of my strength training” Show Notes Oscillating squats with a national level sprinter https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8fwEYqd47d8
