Building a Personal Relationship with Hashem (19)– Coming Home


Listen Later

Why do we often only turn to prayer when we are either desperate or deeply inspired? In this soul-stirring shiur, Rav Leibish Hundert explores the concept of Tamid—the power of constancy in our relationship with Hashem.

Drawing from the text Darchei HaYichud, Rav Leibish compares the practice of Hisbodedus to a "Bayis" (a home) and a marriage. Just as a home is a place you return to in every mood, and a marriage is a commitment that transcends fleeting emotions, our spiritual practice should be a constant "living spring" rather than a "failing river."

Key highlights include:

    • The Art of Constancy: Moving beyond "needing" a miracle to simply "being" at home with the Divine.

    • Speaking To vs. Speaking About: How to transition from intellectualizing God to having a real, intimate conversation.

    • The Pregnant Silence: Why having nothing to say in Hisbodedus is actually a sign of deep spiritual maturity and intimacy.

    • The Legacy of Esther: Understanding how longing can be a more powerful merit than even the most perfect actions.

Join Rav Leibish for a deep dive into the heart of Chassidic meditation and learn how to lower the bar for entry so that you can "enter always."
