Wagensberg, Rabbi Aba on |
The portion of Pinchas falls out during the Three Weeks of tragedy and mourning that culminate with the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash. Join Rabbi Wagensberg to find out how forgetting the Torah is the root of all our sorrows, and dig deeper to comprehend what causes us this clouding of our minds. A fascinating class that ties in the energies of the summer months that were twisted away from their pure source, and gives a deeper understanding of Shabbos and the concept of a Shalom Zachor.
Rabbi Wagensberg takes a close look at the primary functions a human being: thought, speech, and action. Hear how to expand your capacity to define and refine each of these aspects to become the person you truly hope to be.
The way to serve G-d is to find a balance between two extremes. How then do we understand the renewed discussion of PinchasåÕs anger at the immorality that took place in Israel that comes up in this parsha as the Jews fight Midyan? WasnåÕt he going overboard? Rabbi Wagensberg discusses holy anger, and how tapping into it can take us above physical desires.
Moshe is commanded to go to war, after which he will die. Why is it that the reluctance of his beloved nation to enter into this war shows the greatness of Moshe’s leadership abilities? A captivating class that gives us the tools to understand the greatness of tzaddikim, and the perception to see why those who oppose them must contain a measure of evil within their hearts.
The Torah painstakingly recounts every spot visited by the tribes on their 40 years travel through the desert. What can we possibly gain by this seemingly irrelevant repetition? Every encounter we face in life is fraught with challenge. Rabbi WagnesbergåÕs dynamic talk explains how to unravel every journey we take and how to appreciate the inherent lesson for us to learn from.
G-d's intention for creating the world was to grant us an incredible amount of pleasure. This loving intent can be reciprocated on our end. Moshe symbolized this deep reciprocal love for Hashem, and taught us that anything can be accomplished with this emotion.
The three weekly Haftorahs before Tisha B'Av are always read during the three weeks that we collectively mourn the destruction of our holy temples. Follow Rabbi Wagensberg's fascinating trail as he ties up a number of seemingly unrelated ideas: the death of Aharon, the peace he brought wherever he went, the respect due to all things in the universe, and the holy spark within all physicality that helps it to exist..
So many tourists who come to Israel love to make a stopover at the Dead Sea. In this fascinating talk, Rabbi Wagensberg shows just how strategic and critic this region is as this spot really pulls everything together, all the while teaching us a most valuable lesson. That from the lowest comes the highest. After this lecture, the Salt Sea will never be the same and bathing there with take on a whole new dimension of meaning.
