Yevamos 68a: Rav Shimon s Yesod about Safek Ben Teisha and Chezkas Katan

Those who wait to deserve will never be worthy. The goalposts always move, because the system was built to keep moving them. Charlie and Brian walk into Yesod, the Sephiroth of foundation, and find the rhythm beneath every real community: gracious giving, gracious receiving, and the covenant that holds when contract fails. Stories from Berkeley, from the inflatable frog in Portland, from the dry aquifers of the Bible Belt, and from the strange company of holy rascals who refuse to wait for permission to live.Some people pray to a God they no longer believe in because they have not yet found language for the God they do. Creation's Paths: A Creation Spirituality Primer is that language, grown from twenty years of walking the Four Paths..Creation's Paths is a Christopagan Creation Spirituality community rooted in the conviction that creation is original blessing, not original sin.

Each week carries its own energy, its own map. This week, we cross into Parshat Bamidbar.Bamidbar means desert. A place where nothing grows. And yet the same word holds the root of daber, speech. The Torah is teaching us that the deepest speech rises from a vessel that is empty.We are inside the Yesod week of the Omer, moving from Tiferet sheb'Yesod toward the union of Yesod and Malchut, the masculine and feminine energies coming together as we move toward Sinai. Yosef HaTzadik is the archetype of Yesod, the inner control that becomes true expression. The Bris and the Pe, sealed by the same gematria.In the sky, Mercury enters Taurus, asking the mind to be grounded in the body. On Shabbat, Mercury meets the heart of the Sun, a cazimi, a clean reset in the way we perceive, communicate, and speak our truth. Chiron is in the same window, holding the long arc of healing in how we live what we know.Iyar is Ani Hashem Rofecha. The healing is real this week.To map your own soul, your own week, your own next move, find Soul Mapping at livekabbalah.com/soul-mapping.

This dvar Torah continues a series mapping the sefirot/middot through a Gemara in Berachot, focusing on **יסוד** as the “hidden” middah embedded in the phrase **“כִּי כֹל בַּשָּׁמַיִם וּבָאָרֶץ”**. It develops Yesod as the power of **hashpa'ah and kabbalah** (influence and receptivity), the discipline of **discernment** (channeling energy only where it belongs), and the stance of **faithfulness to one's source**—modeled by Yosef. The outline ties these themes to **Milchemet Sisera** (where the heavens and earth interact), to the Yamim Nora'im as “shamayim/aretz,” and to **Tu BiShvat** via the **olive/oil** as the seventh-species symbol of Yesod.

As we step into the week of Yesod, we move from the inner emotional world into the place where everything becomes real, where feelings turn into connection, and potential becomes relationship. In this class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores Yesod not just as a mystical concept, but as the very foundation of how we bond with others, with ourselves, and with G-d.Drawing on teachings from Kabbalah and Chassidus we uncover the deeper meaning of authentic connection, what it means to show up fully, to be emotionally present, and to build relationships rooted in truth rather than fear. This is not just about connection, it's about becoming someone who can be trusted with connection. Because Yesod asks one powerful question: Are you relating… or are you just reacting?Key Points & Takeaways:Yesod is the bridge between emotion and expression, it's where everything you feel becomes how you connect.True connection is not intensity, it's consistency.Healthy Yesod means being present, honest, and emotionally available without losing yourself.Distorted Yesod shows up as people-pleasing, emotional dependency, or confusing attention for connection.Real intimacy requires vulnerability, but also boundaries.Trust is built not in big moments, but in small, repeated acts of alignment.The goal is not just to feel deeply, but to connect truthfully.You don't need to perform connection. You need to embody it.#Kabbalah #chassidus #chassidut #SefiratHaOmer #Sefirah #sefirot #yesod #JewishWisdom #EmotionalConnection  #Authenticity  #HealthyRelationships  #spiritualgrowth #InnerWork #Connection #Trust  #Vulnerability  #Consistency A Brand-New Four Part Kabbalah Series - Turning Walls into DoorwaysHow to Transform Life's Obstacles into the Path to Your Greatest GrowthWhy do we keep hitting the same emotional walls?

Reb Nachman teaches that the yetzer hara is the "old, foolish king" who has thousands of years of practice waiting for our moments of inspiration — and Hashem's answer is Sefiras HaOmer: forty-nine days of counting our victories, including the days we fell.In this shiur we walk through:How Hashem pulled Klal Yisrael out of Mitzrayim shelo k'seder — straight from the 49th level of tumah to seeing the Eibershter at Krias Yam Suf — on the strength of pure emunah in the tzaddik.Tonight's sefirah, Yesod sheb'Netzach: the foundation of everlasting victories. Netzach = gematria 148 = Nachman. "Nitzachti v'anatzayach."Why a fall day still counts as a sober day — and what it means to be "an expert in climbing and an expert in falling."Reb Nosson's reading of Lag BaOmer: gal spelled backwards is lag. The Gal Ed between Yaakov and Lavan haRami is the wall we build after thirty-three days of victories — the wall between us and the inner Lavan who whispers, "It's okay, it's okay."Reb Shimon bar Yochai's promise: pnimiyus haTorah will save Klal Yisrael. The mitzvos aren't six hundred and thirteen rules — they are eitzos, six hundred and thirteen pieces of advice, the soul of the Torah.And Reb Shimon's gift: even if you didn't count a single day, start now. Seventeen days remain — and tov = 17.A shiur about victories, falls, the mountain we build at Lag BaOmer, and the tzaddik who sees the pintele Yid in every Jew.#LagBaOmer #SefirasHaOmer #RebNachman #RebShimonBarYochai #Breslov #PnimiyusHaTorah

Travie chats with Yesod Williams, drummer of the reggae-rock band Pepper and co-founder of LAW Records! Yesod is a legend in the rock and reggae genre, playing alongside bandmates Kaleo Wassman and bassist/vocalist Bret Bollinger since the late 1990's. Their music blends reggae, punk, rock, and dub, a style often associated with the Hawaiian and Southern California reggae-rock scene. After building a following in Hawaii, the band moved to San Diego, where they expanded their audience through constant touring and festival appearances. Williams' drumming is known for mixing tight reggae grooves with energetic punk-style rhythms, helping define Pepper's signature “Kona dub-rock” sound. Yesod discusses his deep connections in the music scene as well as inspirations from bands including Slightly Stoopid, Metallica, and Sublime. Celebrating more than 20 years of the ground-breaking Kona Town album, Travie and Yesod proudly share their converations with you.Pepper's albums include Give'n It, Kona Town, In With the Old, No Shame, Pink Crustaceans and Good Vibrations, Pepper (Self-titled), Local Motion, and Makai.Find Yesod at: https://www.pepperlive.com/https://www.instagram.com/yesodwilliams/https://www.cheepono.org/aboutFired Up theme song by IAMNAXVoiceovers: Brian Fanzo, Riddles

The difference between the perspectives of Yosef and Yehudah and which one we should strive to emulate.

The two main stories in the parasha - the story of Yoseph and the story of Yehudah - form the basis for Joseph being the chariot of Yesod, the implementer of Tiferet - Jacob. Likewise, Yoseph is the source of the Messiah Ben Yoseph - the developmental stage of humanity preceding the era of enlightenment and spirituality - the Messiah Ben David. Are we witnessing a transition between the two periods? At such a dramatic time in human history? Will we soon see a wave of spiritual awakening coming from the upper worlds?

This shiur explores the inner mechanics of teshuvah in Torah 29:2 (para 4-5) not as fragmented efforts of repentance, but as systemic repair through the structure of the sefiros, the power of speech, and Shmiras HaBris.Rav Nachman explains that aveiros disrupt the spiritual relationship between mashpia and mekabel - between Yesod and Malchus. Trying to fix each failure individually is not only overwhelming, it's ultimately ineffective. Instead, we're taught the concept of Tikkun Klali: a root-level realignment that restores order above and below.We examine how this root repair, through praising tzadikim, guarding the bris, and drawing down lavnunit (purity) from Chochmah, transforms disconnection (dam niddah) into nurturing flow. The result is more than personal healing—it reopens the channel for shefa and parnassah to enter the world.At its core, the shiur reveals a spiritual architecture for teshuvah that connects the mystical system to lived avodah.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's show we explore the first thirteen lines from Liber ARARITA and explore each one's corresponding sephirah on the Tree of Life, discussing its corresponding planetary god from the Greek and Roman tradition along with a profile of the angelic archangel who rules over each station. This chapter corresponds to the “Good” side of the Tree of Life and explains it in fairly classical, straight-forward terms. On the free side of the show we make it all the way from Kether to Gevurah but discover that we've run out of time and resume our discussion of Tiphareth through Malkuth during the paid section of the show which includes a rousing discussion about Jacob and his battle with the angel we suspect to be Kamael. Tune in next week to hear about how the Tree of Life from this week matches up with the Tree of Death and its corresponding orders of demons.

Rabbeinu Yonah discusses the importance of being fully committed to Hashem's Torah and Mitzvot, even when people think he's crazy.

Rabbeinu Yonah suggests that one should afflict oneself over previous sins.

Rabbeinu Yonah tells the Baal Teshuva what his day should look like and when he should confess.

Rabbeinu Yonah composes a beautiful Tefillah to be recited by the Baal Teshuva.

Rabbeinu Yonah encourages us to do Teshuva. He discusses what we stand to gain, why we may be hesitant, and what Hashem thinks about our decision.

In this Merkavah installment we explore Yesod and Yosef HaTzaddik as the foundation that brings spiritual intent into concrete reality. We trace how Yosef's journey, from betrayal to leadership, models disciplined attachment and holy channeling of passion, the vav that binds heaven and earth. Yesod becomes practical through action, bris milah as covenantal alignment, business and marriage as arenas to root values, and daily mitzvos as the pipeline that carries blessing into the world. Discover how Yosef's path through suffering to greatness reveals the essence of Yesod: turning trials into foundations, passion into purpose, and becoming the channel through which divine blessing flows into the world. Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

Transcending Our Yesod HaAfar

Do you have commitment issues?These days that phrase has become almost a cliché. A convenient excuse. You hear it all the time—serial daters saying, “We're together, but don't expect a commitment. I have... commitment issues.”For some, commitment feels like a burden. Like a noose around the neck. “Why tie myself down?” they say. “I need an exit strategy. I want to keep the back door open.”I once met a guy who told me—proudly—that he had finally achieved what he called a “relationship milestone.” He said, “I've figured out how to be with my girlfriend... without being committed to her.” I asked, “Does she know that?” “Not yet,” he said, smiling.We've come to see commitment as a liability, when in truth, it's one of the greatest gifts we can experience. Commitment is not just a moral obligation—it's what gives life weight and meaning. It means that something—or someone—is no longer optional. It matters. It shapes who we are.Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson to explore the sefirah of Yesod and delve deeply into commitment and connection, and how vital they are to living the healthiest possible life.

What Is Yesod?

Static or dynamic? What personal and global lessons does it offer us for our times? Why are some blessings so great that they have to be hidden within curses?   Is it appropriate to get an aliya when they read the tochacho? Why did the Mitteler Rebbe not learn from the Alter Rebbe's previous readings that the curses are actually blessings? Can we say that the only reason we are still in golus is due to the pleasure Hashem gets from our effort to overcome the darkness and the challenges it presents? What is the difference between Lag B'Omer and Yud Tes Kislev? Should Israel be relying on America for protection?

NA'ALEH YOGA: Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest+ Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake... This yoga nidra explores the Kabbalistic emanation of Yesod, a spiritual bridge connecting the seen and unseen. Yesod serves as a meeting place where the energies of higher sefirot (emanations) of lovingkindness, inner strength, balance, endurance, and gratitude converge from abstract origins into physical form. This practice invites you to align your thoughts, feelings, and actions, allowing you to trust in the unseen and create from a place of clarity and connection.

Learning in our new home in Efrat the holy Rebbe Nachman ben Feiga

During these weeks of Shovavim, the Mashgiach talks about how one can ensure a healthy home for themselves.

This week we explore the depths of Kabbalah, unique self, and Eros with renowned philosopher Marc Gafni. He begins by defining the foundational concepts of Kabbalah, setting the stage for an exploration of the interplay between masculine and feminine energies that shape our reality. He introduces the profound symbol of the Tree of Life and its relevance to personal mastery. As he describes each piece of the 11 stories in the Tree of Life, the discussion unfolds to encompass the realms of imagination, understanding, and the balance between love and boundaries, highlighting the beauty of contradictions and the coexistence of joy amidst life's challenges. He then describes the concept of unique self, an understanding of self that transcends the misconceptions of both Western and Eastern traditions. As the episode progresses, we delve into how Eros can serve as a portal to deepening intimacy, and ultimately heal our disconnected world.

Gafni's doctorate is from Oxford University with a masters degree from Bar Ilan University. He holds an orthodox rabbinic certification from the Chief Rabbinate in Israel and non-denominational rabbinic ordination. He is the author of forty books, of which only the first twelve have been published, including the award-winning Your Unique Self: The Radical Path to Personal Enlightenment.

Sexual desire, confusion and issues are all over our culture, media and personal lives. The goal of this show is to clarify these issues, clean up the confusion and help us live this area in alignment with truth and divine integrity.

Join us on a journey through the cosmic and mystical realms as we explore the profound connections between the Full Moon of Pisces, ancient wisdom from the Kybalion by Hermes Trismegistus, and the power of love that runs through the universe — or should we say, YOU-Niverse! Dive deep into the Kabbalistic calendar, unravel the mysteries of Yesod and Malchut, and discover how the Shabbat Fish completes its reincarnation cycle during this evolutionary phase. We'll also touch on themes of overcoming chaos, the Hebrew alphabet's esoteric meanings. Could quantum mechanics and superposition echo the teachings of past kabbalists? Plus, enjoy discussions on the major arcana and Tikkun (spiritual correction) that guide us through the cycles of evolution. This episode is designed to ignite your curiosity about the hidden connections between Kabbalah, the lunar and solar calendars, and the quantum nature of reality.

In this episode, I delve into a profound teaching from Rabbi Nachman that underscores the importance of aligning our knowledge (Daas), compassion (Tiferes), and foundation (Yesod). This alignment serves as a powerful conduit for channeling blessings from Hashem into the world. It involves the skillful use of prayer, likened to a finely honed spiritual sword. These insights hold universal relevance and can guide us into the upcoming year, ensuring that you not only attract but also receive a bountiful supply of spiritual and material blessings for both you and your loved ones. ★ Support this podcast ★
