Keeping Faith in Good Times and Bad

by Yedidah on July 16, 2014

faith in all times

We all have moments of connection with our soul, with the Divine within us,….and we all have moments when we feel sad or depressed or spiritless. How do we keep ourselves from falling into the grip of the will to receive for ourselves alone and ending up separated from our soul, from God?
Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai, the compiler of the Zohar, discussed this question more than 2000 years ago. Giving us an example from the Scriptures, he teaches us how the Torah, which shares the same essence as our soul, helps us to keep centered.
In this podcast we will learn a piece of the Zohar with Rabbi Yehudah Lev Ashlag’s commentary and discover that Rabbi Shimon’s advice is just as useful today, in our present day circumstances, as it was when he gave it.
From the Hakdamah LeSefer HaZohar, Ma’amar Oraita VeZaluta
