Daily Click: Hayom Yom + Sefer HaMitzvos

Hayom Yom The Rebbe Maharash spoke about the expectation ✔️ of a Chassid to focus on an idea 💡that he finds difficult. We see proof for this with the women🙋‍♀️ and their legal arguments, up against the greatest sages. You can advance intellectually🧠, if you learn what you care about, and focus on what you learn📖. Sefer Hamitzvos We are commanded to bring the Asham Talui - suspended ⏰ guilt of...

Hayom Yom The Tzemach Tzedek toiled for 30 years, and 32,000 hours in the Maamarim of the Alter Rebbe📖.

In preparation for receiving the Torah. HY: No Tachanun until 12 Sivan. Sheva Brachos. If you toss a stick in the air it’ll land on its base. You have an innermost desire to cleave to HaShem.

Do not have relati...

HY: Lack of effort in Davening —> step 1 in the decline. Everything else takes a hit. SFH: A man is forbidden from remarrying his divorced wife. A man must marry his brother’s wife if he died without children.

HY: Bridging the gap. Nurturing connection. Nurturing attachment. For the Rebbe to be with us in the trenches. And for us to see the world through the Rebbe’s lense, Chassidus. SFH: If divorce and she remarries and then divorces, original couple cannot remarry.
