Weekly Torah Portion with R' Shlomo Carlebach - Re'eh

Join us for a profound exploration of Parshat Re'eh through the inspiring lens of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach ("Reb Shlomo"), presented by Rabbi Avraham Arieh Trugman. As this Torah portion always falls near or on the beginning of the month of Elul, this lesson focuses heavily on the theme of inner vision, preparing for the High Holidays, and reclaiming our true spiritual identity. Rabbi Trugman dives deep into the wellsprings of Chasidut to discuss the opening verse, "See, I put before you today a blessing and a curse." Key topics include balancing individuality within the collective of Israel, overcoming the depressing voice of Amalek, understanding time consciousness ("Hayom"), serving God with depth rather than superficially, and the beautiful concept that the Torah and Eretz Yisrael "belong" to each of us. This class offers essential spiritual tools and inspiration as we enter the season of Teshuvah (return) during the month of Elul.
