A gentle, luminous dive into the Torah of sleep, circles, and hidden light.
In this week’s chaburah, Rav Leibish opens the teachings of Rav Shlomo Carlebach and the Kabbalists on Kislev, Hanukkah, and the deeper meaning of nighttime consciousness.

He explores why Hanukkah is the one chag rooted in darkness, how the circle energy of this month transcends linear thinking, and why the Kabbalah sees sleep as a spiritual gateway — not a retreat.
Along the way, he weaves stories of the Greeks, the Beis HaMikdash, the Holy of Holies as a “bedroom,” the subconscious, and the Carlebach path of flowing, intuitive avodah.

Topics include:

• Reb Shlomo’s Torah on light emerging from the end of the circle

• Why Kislev is tied to Binyamin, sleep, and renewal

• Greek intellect vs. Jewish consciousness

• The Beis HaMikdash as the deepest place of oneness

• Integrating conscious, subconscious, and super-conscious avodah

• How Hanukkah invites us into a different kind of awareness
