How do I handle the disappointment that Moshiach is still not here 20 years after Gimmel Tammuz? What do I tell my children who are confused: I keep telling them Moshiach is coming and he just doesn’t come? What is the true avodah of our generation plagued with ignorance and apathy?
Chof Zayin Adar marks twenty two years from the sad day when the Rebbe had a severe stroke, leaving us in silence. Tonight, in the latest episode of MyLife: Chassidus Applied, Rabbi Simon Jacobson will address the confusion and questions of a community still reeling while anticipating the great redemption.
Other topics to be addressed in Sunday’s hour-long broadcast include:
· How to not be judgmental?
· How to overcome a poisonous grudge?
· Can a temper be tempered?
· What can we do about the unspoken impulse? (part II)
· Where is Moshiach?
· Can the mind truly rewire the heart?
· Can your smile change your feelings?
· How to have authentic and meaningful friendships?
· Beating loneliness.
The on-going series has provoked a significant reaction from the community with thousands of people viewing each live broadcast and hundreds of questions pouring in. At the root of every question and personal challenge tackled by the series is the overarching question: Does Judaism have the answers?
In true “Jacobson-fashion”, the broadcast answers people’s questions in simple, clear language while being heavily sourced. Each episode is jam-packed with eye-opening advice from the Rabbeim, gleaned from uncovering surprising gems in their letters, sichos and maamorim that address our personal issues with disarming relevance. Simultaneously, Rabbi Jacobson is able to crystallize a concept quickly, succinctly, and poignantly for any level of listener.

1000x thank you
everyone should get a mashpia and encourage ones friends to do so likewise
This way we can listen on our phones
How about the HUGE issue of letting bullying carry on I. The schools.
This is really a huge problem and I think you should address it ASAP.
Rabbi Jacobson makes reference to corresponding with the Mashpia from Melbourne. I had the great pleasure studying by Rabbi Winner and found his message fresh and inspiring in the spirit of these wonderful lessons on Applied Chasidus. Thanks to these wonderful teachers of Chasidus that Chasidus “talks to us”. They are a living role model for the Chasidishe Bochurim of our times.
thank you
I believe the Kotzker said that the atzvus that comes from an avaira is worse than the avaira. For avairos we have teshuva.
An old yidishe saying ” A mentsh iz nisht a malach”
We may fall and fail but must always remember to get up and keep fighting to be an oved Hashem.
Excellent!!!!
Thank you.
“A taivah is like a pop-up, you don’t need to give it any energy, just click it away.”
“Someone else doesn’t have to be wrong for you to be right.”
Thank you Rabbi Jacobson!
This is why the world is now learning Chassidus.
Even Misnagdim are learning Tanya!!
Thank you Rabbi Jacobson, you give Chabad an excellent, excellent name.
applied chassidus, undiluted so refreshing and inspiring!
Thank you!!! So so great!!
I was literally blown away by Rabbi Jacobson’s erudite presentation on how chassidus, rooted in atik, can rewire our pleasure center, channel it down through chochma and chabad into our emotions — attacking the unspoken impulse at its core root, redirecting and harnessing the mind and the pleasure to its appropriate location: serving our divine purpose.
Knowing the mechanism empowers you with the belief that it is doable, which in turn is a critical step in winning any battle: knowing that you can prevail.
Gevaldik!
Meaningful lectures
We can all benefit by listening to the last 10 minutes every day and by meditating on these thoughts we will gain tremendous chizuk!!
