Podcasts about Rebbe

This is the amazing story of how a newly observant IDF war veteran - Lazer Brody - spent four days with the Lubavitcher Rebbe of saintly and blessed memory. The story begins with the First Lebanon War of 1982 and then moves to 770 in Crown Heights, Parshat Korach, 5747/ June 25-28, 1987. The Rebbe's unforgettable eyes...

When Rabbi Levertov went to get a dollar of the Rebbe for his daughter from his safe-box, something else fell out.

Chassidus: Likkutei Sichos Rosh Hashanah #2: Rabbi YY Jacobson presented this class presented on Thursday,28Elul, 5783, September 14, 2023, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. This is part two of a text-based class in a Sicha, a public address by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, presented on Shabbos Parshas Nitzavim-Vayeilech, 23 Elul, 5749 (September 23, 1989), published in Sefer Hasichos 5749 vol. 2, exploring the true meaning of not blowing shofar when Rosh Hashanah coincides with Shabbos. How is it possible that we dont coronate G-d as King when Rosh Hashanah is Shabbos? The Rebbe explores three states of Bitulof alignment with the Divine oneness. The first is the way it can be experienced on Rosh Hashanah during the weekdays; the second is the experience of Shabbos Rosh Hashanah, and finally, the experience in the Beis Hamikdash, where they blew shofar even on Shabbos. The first level is about surrender of self; the second, deeper level, is the complete fusion of self with Divine oneness, without any act of surrender, thus not blowing the shofar is far deeper than blowing the shofar. Then there is the third state, when nothing needs to be negated, not even a sense of identity and self. That is why in the Beis Hamikdash we did blow shofar on Shabbos Rosh Hashanah. There is you. There is not you. And there is the space where you need not be negated, so that you can be you. Transcendence and infinity can also be a trap, and dont capture the ultimate reality. Whenever we negate something, He is not finite, I am not my ego, we are still defined by it, albeit in a negative way. In the ultimate truth, the self is not a contradiction to oneness.

On the night of Rosh Hashanah, a person is supposed to come home from shul and sit at his table and begin the meal by eating certain foods as a good omen for the new year. It is important to follow this procedure and say the accompanying tefilot when eating each food, but it is even more important for a person to act and think the right way on this day. Even one thought of a person feeling that he wants to become better and improve in his observance of Torah and mitzvot is more powerful than all the foods and Yehi ratzons combined. The Meiri writes that one of the purposes of eating those foods and saying the Yehi ratzons is to arouse a person to want to become better. Every thought that we have on this holy day makes a very big impact on the entire upcoming year. A person should be filled with hope and emunah. A person should look at things from the right perspective. We should remove all worry and stress and focus on Hashem's rulership over the world and our lives individually. Every mitzvah we do on this day goes a long way. The Chochmat Shelomo writes in his derushim to parashat Ki Tavo that, on Rosh Hashanah, a person should be happy and say the words “Whatever Hashem does is good,” with real emunah. Those words have the power to change a harsh decree into revealed good. Everything we do on Rosh Hashanah has a major impact. A man sent the following question to Rav Yitzchak Zilberstein a few years back. He said that, for whatever reason, his wife is not happy with him and many times she does things just to get him upset. One of the things that she does is on Rosh Hashanah instead of serving him the head of a sheep, she serves him a tail. Normally, we are supposed to eat from the head as a sign that we should be at the head and not at the tail. He said that makes him so nervous because he doesn't want it to be a bad omen for him. The Rabbi told him, to be at the head means we want our true desire of doing good to lead us on the proper path, rather than getting pulled like a tail by our evil inclination. If a person is able to overcome his inclination of getting upset or yelling at his wife and rather accept what she does with love, he will not need any omens to have his good inclination lead him, because he is already practicing it. He will have already proven that he is a head and not a tail. And that is more powerful than any food or any sign. The main thing is that we shouldn't get upset or speak negatively to anybody. A person's attitude can change everything for the better. On one occasion on Rosh Hashanah, a young avrech came to the Slonimer Rebbe looking very scared. He cried to the Rebbe saying he couldn't afford to buy a head. He only had enough to buy a fish tail. Now he was worried that would be a negative omen for him for a bad year. The Rabbi told him, everything goes after a person's attitude and his tefilot . He told him to pick up the tail and say “This should be the tail-end of all of our troubles and suffering and, going forward, we should only have peace and tranquility.” Nothing should bother us on this great and awesome day. We should utilize every moment we can for Torah, for mitzvot and for ma'asim tovim . And we should be happy and calm, trusting in the great mercy of Hashem

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: TISHREI What is the significance of this month? ROSH HASHANA How do I personalize Rosh Hashana? Why is there no special commemoration of Elul 25, when the world was created? Why do some people have the custom to visit cemeteries Erev Rosh Hashana? If we can narrow it down, what is the single most important thing we need to do on Rosh Hashana? What is the book of life and how do we get inscribed (with a “full page ad”) in it? Why do we dip an apple in honey? Is it better to make good resolutions that are small but easily achievable, or larger and more difficult ones? Is it appropriate to resolve to transgress and then refrain from doing so? Why can't Rosh Hashana be on a Friday when the first Rosh Hashana was a Friday? Why don't we sound the Shofar on Shabbos? How does Shabbos spiritually accomplish the same thing that blowing the shofar accomplishes? Has anyone yet come up with an acronym for the new year tof shin pey daled? TEN DAYS OF TESHUVA What is the significance of these days and how do I personalize them? YOM KIPPUR How do I personalize Yom Kippur? Why does Yom Kippur come after Rosh Hashana? Why did the Rebbe dance on a chair during Napolean's March? YOM KIPPUR TO SUKKOS What is the significance of the four-day transition from Yom Kippur to Sukkos? Why is Sukkos such a joyous holiday? Is it related to Yom Kippur? How do I personalize Simchas Torah? HOLIDAYS How does Chassidus explain the spiritual energy of all the high holidays and why they all come together at the beginning of the year? Is it called the high holidays because our prayers can travel higher than normal during these holidays Is there a limit how far our prayers can travel through the spiritual worlds? Can our prayers reach the essence of G-d? SUKKOS Why is Sukkos not in the Spring after Pesach? Are those that sleep in a Sukkah doing anything wrong? Hakhel: If G-d enjoys us gathering together, why do we only do it in a Hakhel year? Follow-up: How to resolve a disagreement between spouses whether to hang a picture of a secular hero near the picture of the Rebbe?

Rosh Hashana & Yom Kippur by the Rebbe This audio includes facts, details etc. about Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur by the Rebbe. This file was originally, delivered as a shiur in a Crown Heights Mosad. Listening time is about 95 min. Due to its length you may need to download it to a computer.

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Chassidus applied to Chai Elul What does this day teach us? What did Chassidus come to accomplish? How did it address the challenges of the time? How does Chai Elul help us enter Rosh Hashana? What were some of the revolutionary ideas introduced by the Baal Shem Tov and the Alter Rebbe? What is the difference between the “two luminaries”? Is inspiration ever initiated by us and by Hashem at the same time? According to Chassidus should we be shunning the beauty of the natural world? Was Hemshech Ayin Beis ever concluded? New revelation Lessons from Netzavim-Vayeilech What is the primary lesson from this week's portion? What does the Parsha mean when it says this is “very near to you in your mouth and heart so you can do it”? Since we are concluding a Hakhel year, should we make one last stand during Elul and organize Hakhel gatherings? Is the shofar sounding also a wake-up call for Hashem? Are there situations where G-d, for whatever reason, answers our prayers only at the last possible moment? What should I tell my daughter when she argues against tzinius saying that we shouldn't be hiding the beautiful body Hashem created? How to resolve a disagreement between spouses whether to hang a picture of a historic secular activist near the picture of the Rebbe? Follow-up: Missing a day of putting on Tefillin

1)      I'm puzzled with the explanation in Shaar haKolel as to why on Shabbos etc. the letter Vov is added to the word המרחם in Moidim. Please explain: 2)      A note in the Kfar Chabad Sidur instructs us to stand erect for the last three words of Moidim deRabonon. Is that correct? 3)      A man whose left arm is paralyzed ר"ל, should he still don Tefilin on that arm? 4)      The 11th blessing in the Amidah begins with our pleading for the restoration of judges, whilst the blessing ends with that HaShem loves righteousness and justice. Shouldn't the opening and the conclusion of the brocho reflect the same theme? 5)      Our family are having a birthday party for my father. Should wine be served at the event, would I be permitted to play my violin? 6)      Does a mother recite HaGomeil after having given birth? 7)      Someone who owes me a significant amount of money, has been delaying payment for years. Eventually this ended up in civil court, who awarded me the full payment, plus interest, which is enforceable through bailiffs. Is this interest surcharge permitted or would I have to return the interest to the defendant? 8)      There are different ways – within Chabad! - how to form the knot of the straps for the Tefilin shel Rosh. To discuss: 9)      When you're not sure if you have a brocho in hand, may you eat the food?  10)   Feedback on sleeping with one's feet facing the door: 11)   Feedback on the story of the Rebbe being Sandek for R' Chonye Morozov's sons:

Is having discriminatory school acceptance policies Halachically allowed? What damage are we doing to our children? Do we have a communal obligation to accept all children into schools? Is there a difference between a boys school and a girls school? Can schools force people to accept upon themselves Chumros, in order that their kids should be accepted?

Recording Available Via Telephone Dial: (605) 475-4799 | Access ID: 840886# | Reference #: 2203 The pasuk says in this week's parasha Re'eh, עשר תעשר, which the Gemara explains to mean, give ten percent of your earnings to charity and you will become wealthy. Although the pasuk is speaking to a landowner giving ten percent of his crops to charity, Tosafot bring from the Sifreh that the same applies to a businessman giving ten percent of his earnings. The Tur writes in Yoreh De'ah, siman 247, it has been tried and tested, when a person gives tzedaka, he does not lose, rather the opposite happens, he gains wealth and honor from it. Furthermore, it nullifies harsh decrees and saves the person from death. The Rama is posek that giving tzedaka brings a person wealth and this is the only area in which a person is allowed to tell Hashem he is waiting to see the fruits of his labor. The Chafetz Chaim in his sefer Ahavat Chesed writes the halacha is like this Rama. As with all mitzvot, there are exact details on how to perform them and in order to reap their full rewards, they must be done correctly, and therefore, a person must learn all of the halachot of giving maaser to ensure that he is doing it correctly to reap its benefits A woman once sent a question to the Imreh Emet regarding maaser. She wrote, my husband makes a minimal parnasa and he is still careful to separate maaser. That maaser, however, comes at the expense of us being able to buy shoes and clothing for our children. Is my husband still obligated to give maaser under those circumstances? The Rebbe replied, when one gives maaser, he must give it with an open heart and when he knows that the money going to tzedaka is not really his, it's much easier to give it with joy. Strictly speaking, you are not obligated to give but there is a segula if you give with an open and happy heart, with a true desire to give, then you fulfill what it says in the pasuk ‘let your heart not feel bad when you give' and that pasuk continues and says, because of that type of giving, Hashem will bless you in all of your deeds and in every undertaking. We see from here, one of the requirements to merit the blessing is to give with a happy heart. Moreover, if we do find somebody giving maaser and not becoming wealthy, there is for sure a great reason that we are not capable of understanding at this point. But we must trust that Hashem is doing it for the absolute best of the person giving. A wealthy man who started becoming careful in giving maaser began losing his wealth at the same time. He went to Rav Eliashiv, z”l, asking how such a thing could happen. The Rabbi replied, it seems that some of your money was earned in a non-kosher way. So long as you were not giving maaser, you did not have the zechut to become cleansed from that severe sin. But now that you began giving, you have become worthy. Hashem is now giving you kapara for all the dishonesty you had in business and that is the greatest chesed He could possibly do for you. Giving tzedaka is wondrous. It benefits us in both worlds. Let us not only give, but give with a happy heart. Shabbat Shalom.

Chof-Gimmel Menachem Av (18:20)

NCSY Kollel ran a program called Great Debates. In this debate, featuring Rav Yosef Hirschel vs Rav Burg, the topic debated was should a Rebbe know what his talmid is doing on a Saturday night. Rav Hirschel argued the affirmative and Rav Burg argued the negative. At its core the issue being debated was, what is the role of a Rebbe.

Recording Available Via Telephone Dial: (605) 475-4799 | Access ID: 840886# | Reference #: 2413 The pasuk says, טרם יקראו ואני אענה – before we even call out to Hashem, He answers us. But we also know, Hashem loves to hear our tefilot and one of the reasons that Hashem gives us our needs through tefila is just so that we pray. The Arvei Nachal writes, in parashat Toldot derush 3, that Hashem desires to give us everything we want, even before we call out to Him. He just waits to give it to us until we pray because He also desires to hear us as well. The answers to our prayers are already waiting in Shamayim to be given to us. We just need to pray to access them. A person should utilize the gift of tefila as much as possible. We should teach children from a young age to get into the habit of praying during the course of their regular day. A fifth grade rebbe said he begins his class every morning with a story about emunah and the power of tefila . During the last week of school this year, there was an event with raffles for the entire school. Before the drawing for the huge lego set, the rebbe noticed his entire class jump up from their seats. He asked them what happened. They said there was one boy in the class who loved legos so much, they all decided to pray that he would win. A few moments later, the ticket was drawn and, amazingly, out of the entire school, the boy that they prayed for was chosen. They all got tremendous chizuk seeing the power of their prayers. A rabbi I know said he tries to make sure never to miss minyan, even when he travels. Recently, this rabbi was in a different country for a few days and the people who booked his flights made the return on a Thursday afternoon at 1:00pm. The place the Rabbi was staying had just one minyan for Shacharit at 8:00. It seemed like that would easily give him enough time to pray and make the flight, so he agreed to the schedule. Tuesday night, someone called him and said a driver would be picking him up Thursday morning at 8:00 to go to the airport. The Rabbi asked why the driver would need to come so early. That man told the Rabbi, he was leaving from a different airport than he arrived in. That airport was a three hour drive and he needed to be there two hours before the flight. The Rabbi felt very bad. What would he do about minyan ? The next morning, he asked the gabai at the minyan to make a request for the people to pray at 7:00 on Thursday instead of 8:00. There were only 12 people there and none of them wanted to wake up an hour earlier. The rabbi was stuck. He checked and saw that there were no other minyanim in any cities nearby. That entire day, he repeatedly asked Hashem to help him find a minyan . That night at Mincha , seven new people walked in saying their Grand Rebbe had just landed and needed a minyan for Mincha and Arbit and since this was the only place, they came here. The rabbi asked them what they were doing for Shacharit the next morning. They said by then they would have their own minyan. They were staying just one mile from where this rabbi was. The rabbi asked if they happened to be praying at 7:00. The person said, specifically tomorrow the Rebbe needs to pray early at 7:00 as he had somewhere to attend afterward. They offered to pick up the rabbi at 6:30 the next morning and, baruch Hashem, in the middle of nowhere, this rabbi was able to get a minyan that Hashem perfectly orchestrated just for him. A man told me last week, he and his son landed in Newark Airport at 10:00 pm after two flights with a very long stopover coming from Israel. They were exhausted and looking forward to getting home. To their dismay, they were faced with a two hour line for customs. There were nine zigzag lines moving extremely slow with each direction taking 10-15 minutes. Halfway through the line they couldn't take it anymore. The man turned to Hashem and said, “In this week's parashah V'etchanan we read how You always answer us when we call out to You. Please, Hashem, help me get out of here speedily. Within two minutes of that tefila , two new airport security personnel showed up and began directing traffic and pushing the line through. Ten minutes later, they were on the curb with their suitcases, waiting for their ride home. Tefila is wondrous. We should accustom ourselves to using it all the time.

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: What do we learn from this time period – following Tisha B'Av? Chassidus applied to the 15th of Av What does this day teach us? What is the connection between the 15th of Av and Yom Kippur? Does it make a difference if we say Tu B'Av or Chamisha Asar B'av? Why is this day related to shidduchim? Why is it customary to start wishing each other kesiva v'chasima tova on the 15th of Av? In our times how do we fulfill the custom of young men and women meeting for shidduchim on this day? Why is this day called the “day that broke the axe”? What connection does that have to the meaning of the 15th of Av and to the additional Torah learning that begins on this day? What is the significance of cutting down a tree with the axe handle made of the very wood of the tree itself? If it takes the wood of a tree to cut down trees, how did they cut down the first tree? Post Tisha B'Av How do we address our children's disappointment that Moshiach has not come yet despite the different promises and signs? Since King Solomon build a hidden Holy of Holies to demonstrate that it never gets destroyed, why do we fast on Tisha B'Av? Why do we fast when eating is a way of placating the animal soul? Lessons from Eikev What is the general lesson from this week's portion? Does Eikev hint to ikvasa d'meshicha? What is the significance of the eikev (the heel)? How is the resurrection of the dead alluded to in this parsha? According to chassidus what is the significance of Israel being a land that flows with milk and honey? The Rebbe visiting summer camps Why did the Rebbe visit the camps? Why only a few times? What was his message to the campers? Any good stories that happened during these visits? Gimmel Tammuz follow-up: What does it mean that “tzaddikim never die”?
