Are We Living Our Spirituality Dynamically? In this week’s episode of Streetfarbrengen we dive into a thought-provoking question sparked by a morning shul conversation: Do we live our spirituality symbolically, practically, or dynamically? Using the famous Talmudic scenes of Rabbi Akiva at the destruction of the Beis HaMikdash, we explore how two d…

Chassidic circles stress the story of the spies' reluctance to enter Israel as the choice for spiritual isolation and comfort over the task of grappling with the physical realities of turning a land ( of Israel) into a heavenly oasis.

We often call success winning, like when you cross the goal line. We look to the end of the line, to know the end game, and to finding our cherished goal at the “end of the rainbow.” There is the “ end of days.” When Zechariah and Reuven last met they pledged to contemplate for 30 days the scene of Rabbi Akiva by the river seeing a constant drip of…

A Street Farbengen is a focus on the road; on the path to take after all the talk and exchange between friends. Reuven and Zacharia continue the focus on Rabbi Akiva by the river. A constant drip on a rock burrows an indent. So too, thinks Rabbi Akiva, can the Torah drill a hole in my heart. Sometimes the rock is the dream unheeded and met. Sometim…

Rabbi Akiva saw drops of water falling on a stone making a deep hole. What power there is in a drop of water,” thought Rabbi Akiva. “Could my stony heart ever be softened up that way?” Lag B'omer is the Yom Halula of the Holy Rashbi.

The letters of the month Iyar are an acronym for “I am G-d your healer.” What is your attitude towards health?

What did the Rebbe mean when he said on Nissan 28th “I have done what I can do ... and now I give it over to you?” Was he intimating retirement, or even 3 Tammuz? Reuven suggests that we had it all wrong. The 28th of Nissan is not a lesser relationship between Chassid and Rebbe, but a stronger one more than ever. “ Most of us sat at farbrengens at …

“If you don’t apply yourself in Avodah ( to grow spiritually) then you are an atheist!” This needs explanation. This segment of Street Farbrengen struggles with the period of Sefiras Ha'omer.

Be it in business, sports, and even in health, there is an emphasis on “The Target”, where is the bullseye, what’s your target? Reuven asks what is the target of a Chassid? We read that a Tzaddik is not the goal, and halavay, it should be a Benoni for an hour! So then do we conclude we have no target?! What’s the target you have in mind for yoursel…

We enter the starting gate of the season of leaving Egypt. A Chassid asks him or herself “ what area of slavery do I live in?” Living in slavery is also formed in the mind, with a picture you have of yourself deep within. It creates an often unconscious identity, a glass ceiling, to contradict the very goal and desire you have in mind you to accomp…

Street Farbrengen Episode 74- “The Yud Shevat Aliya - A Garden of Delight or A Road of Angst

Do you know people - or maybe even you - who days before are anxious about scheduling their aliyah for the Shabbos before or Shabbos Yud Shevat? Reuven floats a question on this week's Street Fabrengen: I am wondering whether this is provocative, downright insane, against the rules, genius, or maybe all of these? ....We do not mark the Yartzheit of…

Yud Shevat makes sense ? Do you sometimes feel that those special days connected to our Rebbes are “ blasé” or confuse you or maybe give a twinge of anxiety?

This episode of Street Farbrengen takes a different look at the time of Hey Teves through Yud Shvat. The relationship between Chassid and Rebbe can be demanding and complex. At its core is "the Rebbe is my Rebbe but am I a Chassid?” Reuven thinks he’s a Trans Chassid! A fun look at being confused and sincere and striving to be a Chassid.…

We have seen an uptick of Chassidim looking for direction and help in unfamiliar places: sweat lodges, drum circles and offices of psychotherapists, psychiatrists and other wellness oriented sources.

What is the relevance of Yud Tes Kislev in this generation? Reuven has the nerve to suggest “ don’t go to a Yud Tes Kislev Farbrengen because you feel should.” And, if you ask who the heck am I to make such a statement… just a slob farbrenging….. The Rebbe writes: On this day, that light is called forth, in a general way, for the entire year. It is…

Life begins small and in time grows into maturity. There is spiritual maturity and immaturity as well.

It is Kabbalistic thinking that the creation “recedes” on Rosh Hashana and awaits the prayers and the sound of the Shofar to begin creation anew. Not only is the world waiting for a spectacular creation for the next year, each individual is integral to this new creation process. Each must also must want to create again.

There is an emphasis in Chassidic literature on limiting one’s participation with the physical environment, to measure what is necessary and what is extra and luxury.

Every Geulah is fashioned from a prison. “The Rebbe # Tammuz 5710” Zechariah suggests that “prison” is associated with “Nisayon,” a test, different then birurim, extracting the good from the negative.

Gimmel Tammuz is a real modern challenge for the serious Chassid. How do I relate to who and what is the Rebbe himself beyond ‘scholar’? Is Rebbe the writings and videos left ‘below’?
