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.
