King David spoke from the soul. As the Almighty's anointed, his soul contained the sparks of all of our souls. His exquisite words are the protocols of his intimate discourse with the Almighty. These words illuminated his soul in the darkness that he faced his entire life. Therefore, when we say them too, they also glow and illuminate our souls in the midst of today's darkness that stands between us and happiness.
The Book of Psalms in Spoken English is now available online at Amazon in 3 distinct formats: hardcover, paperback and ebook. Let King David's glowing words brighten your soul. The feeling is somewhere between exquisite and sublime, somewhere lofty in the realm of inspiration where everything glows.

After reviewing Part 1, we continue with Rebbe Nachman's classic tale, which hints at the painful, seemingly endless exile of the Divine Presence. Even more painful are the frustrating efforts of the true Messiah to reveal himself. He too must suffer exile and tribulations. This is poignant portrait of dedication shows the national characteristics that will surely hasten Moshiach.

Some of history's most brilliant minds have misconstrued the concept of "One perfect, infinite and inseparable wholeโฆperfectly unified." We are talking about the very core of monotheism. The principle of Divine Unity is therefore universal, not just Jewish. The reason that great minds and intellectuals so frequently fail to understand the notion of Divine Unity is because it defies intellect. Emuna in general and the principle of Divine Unity in particular only begin where intellect leaves off...

In one of Rebbe Nachman's most cryptic allegories, he encapsulates the historical cycle of exile and redemption. This is a beautiful portrait of dedication, simplicity and purity, the national characteristics that hasten Moshiach.

Ein Od Milvado - there is no one but Him. Hashem is everything. We need not look anywhere else for anything we need in material or spiritual abundance and salvation.

After we review parts 1 and 2, we see the completion of the dramatic turnaround. The Simple One becomes a wise and successful national leader who rises to the pinnacle of success. The Clever One falls into ignominy and finds himself neck-deep in the evil-angel's swamp...

Why bother learning emuna? Why bother searching for truth at all? What difference does either make? Modern society says, "Let me enjoy my life and don't bother me with the details." The problem with that type of attitude is that a life oriented toward appetite โ fulfillment and material enjoyment - never attains what it seeks, let alone lasting happiness and fulfillment.

An inherent law in creation is that the Creator lowers the haughty to ground-level zero but uplifts the humble above the clouds. No one should ever disdain another human being, for often, there's a turnaround, as Rebbe Nachman shows us in Part 2 of "The Clever One and the Simple One."

Rebbe Nachman's classic tale inspired me to compose this melody. Not only is this my favorite story, but the "Simple One" is my favorite character. It's the story of the underdog. Wherever he goes, people are smarter, stronger and more talented than he is. He's the brunt of endless ridicule and disparagement. He has one major virtue - simple emuna. Rebbe Nachman shows us where that takes him. See the lyrics below in English and in Hebrew.

Iโll tell you a story from old, about a simple person with a plain mind. Despite that fact that people ridiculed him, by virtue of his innocence and integrity, he became the Viceroy of the kingdom.
People call me simpleton
But that just suits me fine
I donโt look at other folks
Iโm happy with whatโs mine
So what if they have a high IQ
And Iโm not very smart
They complain all the time
But Iโm happy with my part.
Everyone makes fun of me
But I really do not care
Itโs better to be a simple guy
Than some high-brow debonair.

No other creation in the universe has the attribute of free choice, for no other creation has a Divine soul, a human soul and an animal soul. By learning the anatomy of free choice, we see how the human can rise higher than an angel or lower than a beast of burden.

Like all of Rebbe Nachman's tales, "The Clever One and the Simple One" is a kaleidoscope. Superficially, it's a guide to success and happiness. On a deeper level, it signifies the battle between simple emuna and intellectual sophistication. Today's lesson introduces us to our two protagonists.

Who doesn't yearn for a stress-free life? Is it possible? As we see today, when one border becomes quiet, another border flares up. Even if someone tries to avoid the war in Israel, they'll encounter antisemitism in France, the UK, Canada and the USA. There's no escaping. But we can cope, even be happy. We only need to learn a bit of spiritual anatomyโฆ

Only seven short weeks prior, the People of Israel were still slaves in Egypt. But now, they willingly accepted a different type of servitude, accepting the yoke of the Torah and its commandments. They had no idea of what to expect. Three Hebrew words changed the course of history. The greatest sound and light show that the universe ever saw was about to beginโฆ

For peaceful interpersonal relationships, we all must avoid projecting our own weaknesses, insecurity and character flaws on others. Those who see their own faults in their fellow humans look at the world through spiritually-smudged lenses. As such, they arrive at quick judgments and sorely mistaken conclusions, both of which destroy relationships, as we learn today.
