We begin learning Likutei Moharan Torah 23 Tinyana b'iyun — one of the Rebbe's shortest Torahs, and one of the deepest. Rebbe Nachman opens with a mashal everyone knows: people are dancing at a simcha, and they grab the one standing outside the circle — the one in sadness, in marah shechorah — and pull him in against his will, until he too is dancing. Then the Rebbe reveals the nimshal: you can do the same thing with your own emotions. When a moment of simcha comes, don't just enjoy it — chase down your worry, your ache, your sadness, drag it into the circle, and watch it convert into joy itself. In this first class we build the map of the Torah and learn how to ask questions on every word: • The mashal and the nimshal: forcing the marah shechorah into the simcha • "Sason v'simcha yasigu, v'nasu yagon va'anacha" — chasing the sadness that flees from joy • Why simcha and atzvus cannot exist in the same moment • The Sitra Achra: where yagon va'anacha really comes from • The biggest words in the Torah: HaSimcha means Kedusha • Three leshonos — hasimcha, sameach, besimcha — and why every word is medayek • The Arizal's secret: b'simcha is the same letters as machshavah — joy lives in the mind • Moach shalit al halev: you can control your feelings, because thought comes before emotion • The black dot and the white page: why we focus on the one thing wrong instead of the thousands of things right • A sneak preview of milsa d'shtusa — the Rebbe's advice to do something silly Bring a notebook — write down your questions, share the Torah with a friend, and learn it b'chavrusa. The tachlis is not to learn the Torah but to live it. #LikuteiMoharan #RebbeNachman #Breslov #Simcha #Torah23 #WomensShiur #Joy #Emunah #TorahStudy
Grab Your Sadness and Make It Dance: LM Torah 23 Tinyana beiyun | Women's Shiur, Class 1
Before we open a single line of Likutei Moharan, we need to know how to open it. Rebbe Nachman said "ikkar hatzaddik hu toraso" — the main thing of the tzaddik is his Torah. Even higher than Uman. This introductory class lays the foundation for learning the Rebbe's Torah b'iyun — not as another sefer, but as a face-to-face encounter with the Rebbe himself. Topics covered: • The three ways of getting close to the tzaddik: re'iyas pnei hatzaddik, tzedakah to the tzaddik, and viduy devarim • Shimush and the power of example — why a child learns from what you are, not what you say • A personal memory of Rav Gedaliah Kenig zt"l: the Kiddush that's still burning fifty years later • Tzedakah to the tzaddik — "ziru lachem l'tzedakah," planting seeds that return kiflei kiflayim • Viduy: not confession — admitting. Facing the shame we deny every time we fall • "Panav, sichlo v'nishmaso" — the tzaddik's face, mind, and soul are inside his Torah, and he's talking directly to you • The three daily practices Reb Nosson received from the Rebbe • How to learn b'iyun: surrender first — don't fit the Rebbe into what you already know • No question is a stupid question, no letter is extra — and never say "I got it," because you never got it • The longest distance in the world: from the head to the heart — and why daily hisbodedus bridges it Whether you've learned Likutei Moharan for years or you're opening it for the first time, this class is the doorway in. Open, surrender, and let the Rebbe talk to you. #LikuteiMoharan #RebbeNachman #Breslov #Hisbodedus #TorahStudy #Iyun #Viduy #Emunah #Uman
The Rebbe Is Talking to You: An Introduction to Learning Likutei Moharan B'Iyun —sc Class 1
Continuing Rebbe Nachman's story of the Lost Princess, we return to a small detail with a big message: why does the Rebbe tell us the viceroy went to lie down in the corner? The corner, it turns out, is anxiety — two emotions fighting each other, past and future battling over the present. The viceroy finally reaches the palace, tastes the festivities, and then shuts down, fighting the very feeling he spent years searching for — until the lost princess herself touches him and tells him: this is the place of lo tov. Topics covered: • The corner as anxiety: when two feelings fight and we freeze instead of listening • Why we crush the inner voice calling us back — and how to hear it again • The 70-year sleep: spiritual slumber, checking boxes, and living life on autopilot • Hayom — Rebbe Nachman's urgency of today: even one minute left in the day still counts • Why the deepest Gehinnom is busha — the shame of missed opportunities • Ikkar teshuvah: facing shame and humiliation as the greatest tikkun for ego • A deep chiddush on relationships: your spouse (or parent, or sibling) as the voice of the lost princess, sounding the alarm when we stop providing physically, emotionally, and spiritually • The messenger vs. the message: why blaming the other person keeps us the victim May we let go of ego, face the shame that unlayers it, hear the voice of our own lost princess, and be zoche to see Havayah in everything — and binyan Beis Hamikdash bimheirah b'yameinu, Amen. #RebbeNachman #LostPrincess #SipureiMaasios #Breslov #LikuteiMoharan #Anxiety #Ego #Teshuvah #Hisbodedus #NineDays
The Lost Princess #16: Cornered by Anxiety, Asleep for Years -Ego, Shame& the Voice That Wakes Us Up
Three days before Tisha B'Av, this shiur asks a piercing question: have we gotten so comfortable in golus that we no longer feel what we lost? Based on a Torah from Rebbe Nachman in Likutei Moharan, we explore what the Beis Hamikdash really gave us — the daily korban tamid that brought constant kapparah — and why kapparah is about far more than forgiveness. It's about restoring our da'as: the spiritual lenses to see Havayah within Elokim, Hashem's presence hidden behind the screen of physicality. Topics covered: • The Nine Days and shavuah shechal bo — getting comfortable in our discomfort • Ashes at the chuppah: remembering the churban at our moments of greatest simchah • The Dor De'ah at Matan Torah — seeing spirituality in every physical object • Havayah and Elokim: why nature hides Hashem's essence • How aveiros scramble the osios of Hashem's dibur — and how viduy and hisbodedus restore them • The eitzah of Rebbe Nachman: viduy before the tzaddik and the avodah of Uman • A practical kabbalah for the days before Tisha B'Av: a few minutes of hisbodedus to feel Hashem's pain — and our own May we be zoche this year to see Tisha B'Av transformed into the greatest Yom Tov, with the geulah pratis and geulah klalis. Amen. #TishaBav #NineDays #LikuteiMoharan #RebbeNachman #Breslov #Hisbodedus #BeisHamikdash #Emunah #Geulah

A shiur delivered by R' Mordche Gottlieb in Miami Beach, FL, as we enter Rosh Chodesh Av and the Nine Days. Why did the Eibershter create galus at all? Wouldn't a world of pure geulah have been a better plan? Rebbe Nachman of Breslov gives an original answer: the purpose of galus is not just to escape it — the galus itself becomes part of your geulah. R' Gottlieb explains: the world is filled with countless powers, energies, and wisdoms that seem to run by themselves — money, success, strength, intelligence, and today even AI. A person can live an entire life enjoying these powers while completely disconnected from their Source. But that's exactly the point: when a person looks at a world that could be seen as disconnected and declares Hashem Echad — he gives the Eibershter true malchus, because אין מלך בלא עם, and there's no real kingship without free choice. Topics covered: • What we're really saying in Shema Yisrael — recognizing Achdus HaBorei in a fragmented world • Why Hashem created bechirah — a robot's recognition means nothing • אל יתהלל חכם בחכמתו — the chacham, gibbor and oshir: don't erase your strengths, reconnect them • Kaas is fire, gaava is greatness — how middos ra'os become fuel for avodas Hashem • True anava: not being a nebech, but knowing where your strength comes from • What nechama really means — and what we'll understand looking back at our hardships when Mashiach comes (הזורעים בדמעה ברינה יקצורו) • How to use the Nine Days: don't run from the pain — recognize the galus and demand a geulah • Divrei chizuk on Eretz Yisrael today: the open nissim of the war, the pain of machlokes among Yidden, and why davening for Klal Yisrael's geulah brings your own R' Gottlieb also introduces Letayel B'Toraso (לטייל בתורתו) — a worldwide project where thousands of Yidden, from all communities, learn the same Torah in Likutey Moharan together, b'iyun, over months. Learning Rebbe Nachman's Torah the way Rebbe Nachman himself instructed makes this "deep sefer" accessible to everyone.
