How Can I Make My Heart Big Enough To Hold The Great Light?

Imagine I'm a great baseball player and I go up to someone who is playing football, and I laugh at him and say, "You have no idea how to play baseball! I'm so much better than you!" Who is the fool? I am! Here he is playing football -- and all I can think is that he is playing baseball incorrectly! Each of us has a completely different mission in this world. Yours is different from mine, and mine is different from yours. The problems start when we look at each other and think we are playing the same game. This is where all the judgements, jealousies and disconnects begin. There is a competition going on -- but it is between you and your own potential. Be supportive of everyone around you. Their victory is your victory. Their joy is your joy. Their blessings are coming straight from Hashem. All of ours are. When we make room for each other, we complete ourselves.

Why Did G-d Create the World?

To be created in G-d's image means to be a giver. How do we go from being receivers to becoming givers? By giving! In this week's talk, we discuss why G-d created the world, and go back again to the Garden of Eden to uncover new insights into the human condition.

The Origin of Death and It’s Cure

So many people think that when we ate from the Tree of Knowledge, God punished us with death. But did you know that we ourselves created death? In this week's talk, we go back to the Garden of Eden to explore exactly what happened. It changes the narrative from viewing God as a threatening "tyrant" to an understanding God that loves us the most.

How Do I Taste The Torah And Not Just Learn It?

Going beyond the intellect with all it's limitations and reaching out and tasting the Torah with our hearts, but how does this process work?

Building Your Child, Yourself, And The World

What's the difference between a Rabbi and a Rebbe? A Rabbi teaches you something you don't know. A Rebbe puts you in touch with the deepest part of yourself. I learned this teaching from Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach. In this week's talk, we lay out a series of teachings not so much to inform, but to show us how we can create an atmosphere in our lives and in our homes that will put us in touch with the deepest parts of ourselves and each other.

How To Fight Your Yetzer Harah

Imagine wearing a raincoat in the shower. You wonder why you're not getting wet -- and you're not even aware that you're wearing a raincoat. There are certain blockages that are standing in our way with our relationship with God, and our lives in this world. In this week's talk, we explore how to battle against the negative forces that try to undermine us in our quest for happiness and success.

How to Stay Grateful for the Blessings We Already Have

Gratitude is one of the biggest keys to happiness! But like everything else in life, gratitude is an art form that needs to be nourished and learned. In this week's talk, we discuss, how to REMAIN grateful for the gifts that we ALREADY have. Because most of life dwells right there. Enjoy!

Turning Belief into Love

Receiving the Torah and Living the Torah are two different things. In this week's talk, we teach how to LIVE it!! All the information in the world will only get you so far if you don't know how to apply it. Learn how not just to sing the song, but how to become the song itself!
