Reb Chaim"s Shiurim ·

2025/08/26

Join us as we tackle the bold question of chochmah chitzonis: worldly wisdom and its place in a life of Torah. We uncover a rich and sometimes surprising conversation about how worldly wisdom can illuminate Torah, deepen avodah, and even open doors to higher levels of understanding — and also, where it must be kept at bay. From Chazal and the Rambam to the Ramchal and the Vilna Gaon's Messianic vision, this series is a provocative, thought-shaping journey into one of the most debated frontiers

176 A Day in the Life: Purifying on Erev Shabbos

Reb Chaim"s Shiurim ·

2025/08/20

This week, we’re exploring what it means to prepare for Shabbos all week long — not just practically, but as an ongoing pilgrimage. We discuss how the days of the week build toward Shabbos, how our mindset and deeds throughout the week shape our experience of kedushah, and why longing for Shabbos is itself a form of avodah. With guidance from the Gemara, the Rambam, Chassidus, and more, we’ll uncover how Shabbos can become not just a day of rest, but the anchor of our entire week.This series,

2025/08/15

Take a dive into hisbodedus — the practice of speaking to Hashem in our own words, in our own way. From early sources in Chazal to the teachings of the Rambam, the Meiri, and the Chovos HaLevavos, and of course, the deep emphasis placed on it by Rebbe Nachman, we’ll explore what this form of personal tefillah can look like, why it matters, and how it shapes our inner world. Simple in form, but rich with possibility.This series, "A Day in the Life of a Yid", explores the Practical Laws and

169 A Day in the Life: The Kabbalah of Breathing

Reb Chaim"s Shiurim ·

2025/08/11

This week, we turn our focus to breathing: something so constant we barely notice it, yet so central to Torah’s vision of life. From the opening pesukim of Bereishis and the breath of life in man, to Chazal, Rav Kook and the Chasidic Masters, we’ll explore how neshimah and neshamah are deeply intertwined. We explore Rambam’s medical writings on air quality and environment, the power of a sigh, the spiritual sensitivity of air, and what it means to live with awareness that every moment, and every

166 A Day in the Life: Visualizing Tzaddikim

Reb Chaim"s Shiurim ·

2025/08/06

This week, we look at the Torah’s perspective on the impact of seeing tzaddikim. What does Chazal mean by “וְהָיוּ עֵינֶיךָ רֹאוֹת אֶת מוֹרֶיךָ”? Why does simply being in the presence of a tzaddik—or even visualizing their image—matter for our learning and spiritual growth? Through sources from Gemara and Midrash to Mussar and Chassidus, we’ll explore how this experience can sharpen the mind, strengthen our connection to Torah, and inspire the heart.This series, "A Day in the Life of a

These episodes trace marriage from its Torah roots to its spiritual heights: how husband and wife together create a dwelling for the Shechinah, why peace is the ultimate vessel for blessing, and what Chazal, Rishonim, and later gedolim teach about kavod, communication, and harmony. We’ll also look at the profound value of intimacy, the halachic parameters that protect it, and practical
