Know Your Soul - Part 22

“What Your Tears Are Telling You”

With Rabbi Ari Sollish

Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Sunday, March 23, 2025

Tears tell a story. They flow for beauty, pain, wonder, and awe. They can deepen our suffering or bring release. Some tears come from the body—triggered by physical sensations. Others come from the soul—born of something deeper, something Divine.

The soul’s tears remind us of its presence, of the spark of infinite beauty within us, too often buried in the physical. And when the soul cries, it shakes us to our core.

In this session of Kabbalah Café we dive deep into the power of a good cry. We learn to recognize the soul’s tears, decode their message, and transform them into action that lifts us beyond where we stand today. Because when the soul speaks, it’s not just meant to be felt—it’s meant to move us.

“The Anatomy Of A Hug”

With Rabbi Ari Sollish

Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Sunday, March 30, 2025

Affection takes many forms—words that reassure, actions that uplift, a touch that lingers. But among them all, a hug stands apart. A hug speaks without words, heals without effort, and transcends the barriers of the mind, reaching straight into the heart.

When a child stumbles, they don’t ask for explanations or solutions—they reach for a hug. And though we grow older, that instinct never fades. In moments of sorrow, fear, or loneliness, nothing soothes the soul quite like the warmth of another’s embrace.

What is it about a hug that holds such power? Why does it comfort us in ways nothing else can? And what deeper mysteries does it reveal?

In this session of Kabbalah Café we explore the anatomy of a hug. By tracing its physical form and unlocking its spiritual essence, we uncover the profound magic hidden within this simplest of gestures.
