Shaar Habitachon - The Gate of Trust

Lashon Hara - Parshas Behaalosecha

A class on different elements of Lashon Hara inspired by the Torah reading of Miriam

Power of Speech - Parshas Emor

Speech creates reality. In this class on Parshas Emor, we explore how the way we speak about others determines what becomes real in them. The Rebbe teaches that even when someone has flaws, speaking positively can reveal their hidden good and weaken what is negative. A powerful and practical approach to Ahavas Yisrael and inner refinement. (Based on likkutei sichos vol. 27) Lessons from Pesach Sheini

Heichaltzu Part 15

Final class of our series! Chapter 17 After uncovering how ego (yeshus) leads to separation, envy, and sinas chinam, the Rebbe Rashab reveals that the battle against “Midyan” — the force of fragmentation — cannot be won through self-effort alone. It requires connection to a source beyond the self. Through Moshe Rabbeinu, the Ra’aya Mehemna (“shepherd of faith”), we are given access to a deeper level of truth and unity that allows us to transcend ego and restore real connection — within ourselves, with others, and with Hashem.

Heichaltzu Part 14

Chapter 16 exposes the root of what blocks real inner change. Beyond specific flaws or behaviors, the Rebbe Rashab reveals that yeshus — subtle self-centeredness — prevents a person from recognizing their own faults and from being genuinely transformed by Torah and avodah. This class explores how loss of inner sensitivity is more dangerous than the flaws themselves, why baseless hatred reflects a deeper distortion of self, and how true avodah begins with honest self-awareness and bittul. Through this lens, we begin to understand what it means to refine ourselves at the root, not just manage our symptoms.

Heichaltzu Part 13

Chapter 15 Why does another person’s success sometimes inspire us — and sometimes threaten us? Envy is not only a weakness — it is a powerful inner signal. In this class on Chapter 15 of Heichaltzu, we explore how envy can either reveal our deepest potential or trap us in ego, comparison, and subtle resentment. The Rebbe Rashab teaches how true growth requires honest motivation, sustained effort, and inner refinement. When envy is transformed into aspiration, it becomes a force for wisdom, unity, and authentic Divine service.
