Instead of 1:30 pm on Monday, our chaburah will be held at 12:00 pm this Monday, iyH
I am just reading a book called "Gems of Rabbi Nachman" by Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan. In it is a clear reminder of how important it is to speak to Hashem out loud (remember 5 minutes a day).
If you are finding this difficult, please email me so we can brainstorm and discuss the issues.
Here is an excerpt from what i just read(153):
The Rebbe said, "my achievements come mainly through simplicity. I spent much of my time simply conversing with G-d and reciting Tehillim...I have spoken with many great Tzadikim. They all said they attained their high level through prustick/ absolute simplicity. They would do the simplest things, secluding themselves and conversing with G-d. This is how they attained what they did. Happy are they."
How lucky we are to have this opportunity of life to serve Hashem with simplicity and strive to achieve a level of gadlus- deep, meaningful relationship with Hashem.
I hope this Shabbos/ parshas Shlach we are able to maintain our awareness of this underlying foundation; simplicity.
Good Shabbos, aviva rus
(outlines will IY'H be posted on Sunday with a reminder of phone number and time change- I just have to actually make an outline in order to post...)
"No one is ever given an obstacle he cannot overcome"
"Peace comes when there is truth"
"From the moment a person considers repentance, his prayers are accepted"
Rebbe Nachman
(thank you Reitza Sarah for loaning me the sefer!)
