Honoring 22 Shvat, the Hillula - Yortseit of the Rebbe’s wife, Rebbetzin's Chaya Mushka Schneerson. 


Time Happiness & Growth


Life is a gift. Every moment is an opportunity. The way we will choose to utilize each moment will define the value of that moment for eternity. 


There are living moments and there are dead moments. When we waste an hour of time, then that hour is dead time. Wasted. 


We are here on a journey to hasten the times of Moshiach when the world will be cured from all it’s pain and hardships. Every moment which is well utilized hastens the time of Moshiach. 


When we use our time to do an act of kindness, to be there for another, to study Torah, prayer or to put a smile on someone, then we have transformed that moment into an eternal moment filled with life. 


After the passing of the Rebbetzin, the Rebbe often quoted the words of King Solomon והחי יתן אל לבו, the living should take to heart. 


May we take a lesson from the Rebbetzin and make each moment of life count. Filling our  time with meaningful, good things. Helping others with heartfelt kindness, warmth and sincerity. Maximizing our time. 


This is the key to true happiness. 


3 messages based on the teachings of the Rebbe:


1) The love that our loving Father in Heaven has for every Jew is beyond the limitation of reason. “The mere existence” of a Jew gives G-d the deepest pleasure. The Jewish people are the “riches” of His hidden treasures. 



2) Exile and hardships are the crushing of our ego. When you plant a seed, first the seed rots and then the beautiful tree grows and blossoms. You have the power to transform hardships into opportunities of beautiful growth. 


3) Don’t ignore your physical body. The body has much strength. When you harness the power of the body for goodness and kindness, then the body is elevated to a higher level of holiness. You have the power to bring the blessing of healing and peace to the world.

  Click Here: Chabad Inspiration Motivation Destiny & Challenges  Hi Wishing you Gut Shabbos. Shabbat Shalom Candle Lighting January 1 - 17 Teves NY Metro 4:18pm Did you ever wonder: What does it mean to bless G-d? Does He need anything? What can we give Him which He does not have? Chabad philosophy explains that the Creator voluntarily chose to need your input in order to achieve His plan of creation.  Only you alone can chose to welcome the Creator as a partner in your personal life. If the Creator only forces His way in to your life then His goal is not achieved.  The first two Hebrew words of almost all blessings is “Boruch Atah. Blessed are you. “ The word “You” refers to the pure essence of the Creator. To “Bless” means to draw down. To bring it down to our level. To welcome our loving Father in Heaven into our worldly reality.  Adam and Eve were given the most incredible gift of importance, significance and meaning:  Their behavior and the behavi...

BH Shnas Hakhel Click Here: Chabad Inspiration Hi Wishing you Gut Shabbos. Shabbat Shalom! Candle Lighting August 11 - Av 24 Metro New York 7:41pm In Honor of The Rebbe's Father's Hillula - Yortzeit 20 Av 1944 Intelligence Courage & Pleasure The modern world is in pursuit of happiness, meaning and joy. Self help books and coaching are popular. Yet despite the abundance of advice and tips, many people find it challenging to reach this goal.  In Lekutei Torah - Re’ei- the Alter Rebbe explains that even if your mind has all the wisdom and knowledge but we fail to have “Bitul” Submission to the higher truth of the Creator of of all existence, then the wisdom, inspiration and passion will fade and dissipate.  As long as a person is self centered and refuses to submit to the higher truth of existence, then a person will remain trapped and stuck. But on the other hand, when a person embraces our loving Father in Heaven, then their wisdom, inspiration and passion will raise them t...

לחץ כאן: השראה של חב"ד פורים אתה ושמחה (תירגום google מאנגלית) לחיים עם הבורא! חיוכים וילדים שמחים מאפיינים את חג הפורים. במשך אלפי שנים יהודים בכל חלקי העולם חוגגים את חג פורים. ניצחון עם היהודי על  שונאינו ומדכאינו. פורים במובן מסוים הוא סיפור של כוחו של היחיד. הסצינות העיקריות בסיפור פורים שהתרחשו בפרס במאה הרביעית לפני הספירה נסבות סביב אדם אחד. מלך אחד. המן אחד. אסתר אחת. מרדכי אחד. עם אחד. בפורים אנו קוראים את המגילה. במשנה כתוב:  ״הקורא את המגילה למפרע לא יצא". הרבי מצטט לעתים קרובות את פרשנותו של הבעל שם טוב:  מי שקורא את סיפור המגילה של פורים "הפוך" בזמן וחושב שמדובר ב"סיפור ישן״ ולא עדכני לא קיים את המצווה. ישנם כמעט 8 מיליארד אנשים החיים על פני כדור הארץ! ממבט מתמטית אז סתם אדם אחד עשוי להיראות כאילו חסר משמעות. פורים מלמד אותנו:  לעולם לא להתעלם או להמעיט בכוחו של יחיד. בגלל רק אדם אחד רע, המן הרשע, כל היהודים היו בסכנה קיומית. אלוקים ביצע את הנס דרך אדם אחד - הגיבורה אסתר - וניצלנו.  כולנו כאן היום בזכות: אסתר המ...
