In this week’s Street Farbrengen we ponder freedom.
Are we really free if we are in the habit to make weak or wrong choices ? Can we be free if we are afraid to make choices ?
This Street Farbrengen concludes that freedom is Pesach and of all things freedom begins with sweeping, scraping and making our houses and cars and backyards free of the dreaded chometz!
Pesach cleaning can be a curse or a blessing!
Choose blessing!

Present day culture has the Purim bright lights highlighting the Mitzvah of “ mitzvah to intoxicate” (with wine - Rashi ) The dropped walls that foster camaraderie around the Purim feast is unique. The costumes allow us to play and act on our own stage is a unique moment in the calendar. But when the lights go out and the music stops Reuven and Zacharia ask “ what is all this ad da lo yada all about anyway!? How is this different than the last Shabbos kiddish you had too much for your own good? Is there an “ad da lo yada” to be lived all year round too?…
We live in an economy that a hundred years ago would be viewed as a fantasy! Nevertheless it’s possible to have “wall to wall carpets and California kitchens” and remain a pauper. The difference lays between attitude and focus. In this week’s “Street Farbrengen” Reuven and Zacharia dig into the art of thinking higher!…
1 Street Farbrengen Episode 74- “The Yud Shevat Aliya - A Garden of Delight or A Road of Angst 36:23
Do you know people - or maybe even you - who days before are anxious about scheduling their aliyah for the Shabbos before or Shabbos Yud Shevat? Reuven floats a question on this week's Street Fabrengen: I am wondering whether this is provocative, downright insane, against the rules, genius, or maybe all of these? ....We do not mark the Yartzheit of the Rebbe Rashab, the Maharash, and the other Nasi- Leaders like we do with the Previous Rebbe. Is it possible that though we must arrange to have an aliyah on the Shabbos before or on Yud Shevat, that we are missing the the mark on this? Or in other words, is the focus of a Chassid on the performance of soul, or the soul of performance?…
Yud Shevat makes sense ? Do you sometimes feel that those special days connected to our Rebbes are “ blasé” or confuse you or maybe give a twinge of anxiety? How do you not feel tzaaamished and feelings of senseless overwhelm , given what we have heard and yet here we are! Street Farbrengen agrees it’s all senseless. And that is exactly each of us is Mendel Futerfas in the making . 5785 - 2025 is 5687 - 1927 .…
Action with mitzvahs makes His Ratzon, Will. Not through the spirituality of intention... Maamar 5666 There is “The Thinking Mind” which never stops, especially when it faces the joy of simplicity! Is the search for reasons and meaning behind the latest news an embrace of the Holy or an escape of the Thinking Mind. A Street Farbrengen on Trump, Messianism, and the magic with black magic!…
“ I sought out G-d and He answered me….. He saved me from all my terrors” Tehillim - Psalms 34. "He even saved me from all me fears" (Commentaries) Dovid was no stranger to conflict, war, famine, and more. He doesn’t ask or praise G-d for removing his fears , but for getting through them all. Why not ask to have no more fears altogether? In this weeks Street Farbrengen Zachariah and Reuven tussle with whether it’s what we fear that ties us in knots or we just think we should be fearless that locks us into a room without a key! Do we wish to be fearless, or accept what we fear and ask to be saved from what we dread………
This episode of Street Farbrengen takes a different look at the time of Hey Teves through Yud Shvat. The relationship between Chassid and Rebbe can be demanding and complex. At its core is "the Rebbe is my Rebbe but am I a Chassid?” Reuven thinks he’s a Trans Chassid! A fun look at being confused and sincere and striving to be a Chassid.…
We have seen an uptick of Chassidim looking for direction and help in unfamiliar places: sweat lodges, drum circles and offices of psychotherapists, psychiatrists and other wellness oriented sources. This brings up the question what is the role of Chabad Chasidim for each other in sharing their personal problems and challenges.…
What is the relevance of Yud Tes Kislev in this generation? Reuven has the nerve to suggest “ don’t go to a Yud Tes Kislev Farbrengen because you feel should.” And, if you ask who the heck am I to make such a statement… just a slob farbrenging….. The Rebbe writes: On this day, that light is called forth, in a general way, for the entire year. It is our duty, on this day, to awaken our hearts with an innermost, elemental desire and will, in the very core of our heart, that G‑d illuminate our souls with the light of His Inner Torah. “IIluminating our souls'" depends on the difference between a challenge, and a doctrine. Is Rebbe and his Chassidus a challenge or a doctrine?…
Life begins small and in time grows into maturity. There is spiritual maturity and immaturity as well. I can live with G-d with the neediness of a child or the sophistication and maturity of a grown adult. Leaving the womb of the month of Tishrei to walk into the New Year as full grown adults demands a further shift into the self. The goal, to be spiritual and mature…
We often hear that a Chassid is one who is butil - self nullified. Is the emphasis on bitul the nullification of the negative or the spotlight on the possible? Simchas Torah is about the possible - in Torah and in yourself. This is cause for dancing!
What happens after Neilah? Does it disappear as quick as it came? Yom Kippur is not a one night stand! Once you touch soul, you can’t stay away! But you do need a mindset that supports Neilah and Napoleons March. It’s the attitude behind what is a Chassid on Chabad: drilling down to the core with the Rebbe by your side .…
It is Kabbalistic thinking that the creation “recedes” on Rosh Hashana and awaits the prayers and the sound of the Shofar to begin creation anew. Not only is the world waiting for a spectacular creation for the next year, each individual is integral to this new creation process. Each must also must want to create again. Street Farbrengen peeks into the world of creation- from inside out!…
Chassidic transformation ( avodah) boils down to molding G-d into your best friend. More so , G-d is your spouse as alluded in many ways beginning in Shir Hashirim, Song of Songs.. But your therapist? Street Farbrengen lies down on the couch. Who do I trust and expect to hear guidance from more? My therapist or G-d?…
Elul and Tishrei are a basketful of obligation. Is that my focus at this time of year? There is another option. Elicit the power of the 'one who is obligated' - after all, I've been asked to make it all happen! In this week's episode of Street Farbrengen we explore the connection between things we should do, the things we are being asked to do, and who’s being asked to do it! Kasiva Vchasima tova…
