How Did the Baal Shem Tov Respond to People While His Soul Was in Heaven?
Basi L'Gani 5724 #7: This is the seventh of a series of a text-based class on the Chassidic discourse, Basi Legani 5724 (1964), which was said by the Lubavitcher Rebbe 60 years ago at the Farbrengen of Motzei Shabbos Beshalach, 11 Shevat, 5724, January 25, 1964.Rabbi YY Jacobson presented this class on Thursday, 8Shvat, 5784, January 18, 2024, in Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim, Monsey, NY. This class explores the practical relevance of Atzilus in our lives, expressed in the life of Yosef. His brothers, who came from Beriah, could not fathom his lifestyle: How can you be enmeshed in running a superpower, yet remain anchored in Divinity? Yosef explained to them: Do you think I am lower than Elokim? they were from Beriah, Yosef was from Atzilus. And in the world of Atzilus, even the finite and defined thought is an expression of infinite consciousness. With this the Alter Rebbe explains how Hashem contains all thoughts of every human being, without this constitution alien thoughts. And how the Baal Shem Tov managed to answer people about their individual issues while his soul ascended to heaven. Tzaddikim who mirror their Creator can remain present with every thought and emotion, with every person where he or she is, while not leaving the space of infinite oneness. The Baal Shem Tov set an example for each of us. How can I listen to the conversations within myself, respond to the various parts inside of me throwing out questions, with the empathy of my core Divine self, now allowing any thought to tear me away from my intimacy with the Divine?

Hashem May Be the Best Therapist; But What If Your Therapist Caused the Pain?
Basi L'Gani 5724 #6: This is the sixth of a series of a text-based class on the Chassidic discourse, Basi Legani 5724 (1964), which was said by the Lubavitcher Rebbe 60 years ago at the Farbrengen of Motzei Shabbos Beshalach, 11 Shevat, 5724, January 25, 1964. Rabbi YY Jacobson gave this class onon Wednesday, 7Shvat, 5784, January 17, 2024, in Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim, Monsey, NY. This class explores the true meaning of the infinite light permeating the lowest places. This does not mean that the light is present everywhere, but rather that it constitutes the truth of every reality, and yet it remains pure infinity. The paradox is explained via a profound discussion on the nature of the vessels of Atzilus, where finiteness and definition are first introduced into the Divine infinite reality. The Alter Rebbe uses the metaphor of transmitting information via the fingers to explain how the very finite reality, from another prism is pure infinity. We go on to explain how darkness and evil can come from Hashem, because all darkness and negativity begins in the process of measuring the frequencies of light. The class explores the emotional ramifications of this explanation, where we can be fully present in our pain and struggle, we can face adversity with full presence, yet remain anchored in the pure infinite core of all reality. Logic will not do the trick; because it forces truth and infinity into intellectual constructs. Hashem may be the best therapist; but what if your therapist is responsible for the pain? Then the equation changes profoundly. How do we deal with this quandary? The distinction between meditation or other methods that help you experience transcendence, to touch consciousness, disengaged from thoughts, vs. the deeper path of fusion and integration, where the finite thought can also express pure infinite consciousness.

During Faceoff with Hamas, the Core of the Jewish Soul Is Revealed

Rabbi YY Jacobson gave this class onThursday, 23Teves, 5784, January 4, 2024, in Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim, Monsey, NY. The theme of the second class of the maamar is the deepest Divine treasures that are given to the soldiers in order to be victorious in the battle of history, to defeat hate with love, fragmentation with oneness.During faceoff with the enemy who wants to destroy the good and love in the world, the deepest chord of netzach, the power of the soul to triumph against diversity emerges. The class explores what are those deepest spiritual Divine Crown Jewels, by introducing the teaching of the Zohar that the infinite Divine light extends down to the lowest of the low.

The Making of a Jewish Soldier
Basi L'Gani 5724 #1: This is the first of a series of a text-based class on a Chassidic discourse, Maamar Basi Legani 5724 (1964), which was said by the Lubavitcher Rebbe 60 years ago at the Farbrengen of Motzei Shabbos Beshalach, 11 Shevat, 5724, January 25, 1964. Rabbi YY Jacobson gave this class onMonday, 20 Teves, 5784, January 1, 2024, in Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim, Monsey, NY. The theme of the first class of the maamar is how we are charged with the work of fusing all part of our life and our world with the Divine truth, and how we repair the insanity of our dark reality only with holy "insanity," transcending our intellect.This is why the Jewish people are called the army of Hashem, because the soldier going to battle must transcend every last vestige of ego and calculations, committed unwaveringly with every fiber of his being to the mission of victory. The class explored the war between Hamas and Israel and the extraordinary sacrifice of the Jewish soldiers waging battle against Jihad; and how we can only defeat Jihad not through rationality, but through the unbridled passion of the Jewish soul. The class explains the power of enlightened ignorance, which allows one to be a conduit for infinity, and the difference between a cult and transcendence. One if afraid of the mind, the other has graduated and seeks that which rationality cant define or control.

Thursday Class - If You Need to Negate the Self, Youre Stuck in Definitions
Chassidus: Likkutei Sichos Rosh Hashanah #2: Rabbi YY Jacobson presented this class presented on Thursday,28Elul, 5783, September 14, 2023, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. This is part two of a text-based class in a Sicha, a public address by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, presented on Shabbos Parshas Nitzavim-Vayeilech, 23 Elul, 5749 (September 23, 1989), published in Sefer Hasichos 5749 vol. 2, exploring the true meaning of not blowing shofar when Rosh Hashanah coincides with Shabbos. How is it possible that we dont coronate G-d as King when Rosh Hashanah is Shabbos? The Rebbe explores three states of Bitulof alignment with the Divine oneness. The first is the way it can be experienced on Rosh Hashanah during the weekdays; the second is the experience of Shabbos Rosh Hashanah, and finally, the experience in the Beis Hamikdash, where they blew shofar even on Shabbos. The first level is about surrender of self; the second, deeper level, is the complete fusion of self with Divine oneness, without any act of surrender, thus not blowing the shofar is far deeper than blowing the shofar. Then there is the third state, when nothing needs to be negated, not even a sense of identity and self. That is why in the Beis Hamikdash we did blow shofar on Shabbos Rosh Hashanah. There is you. There is not you. And there is the space where you need not be negated, so that you can be you. Transcendence and infinity can also be a trap, and dont capture the ultimate reality. Whenever we negate something, He is not finite, I am not my ego, we are still defined by it, albeit in a negative way. In the ultimate truth, the self is not a contradiction to oneness.

When Judaism Loses Its Soul -- How the Rebbe Understood the Sin of Korach
Likkutei Sichos Korach: This class, in Likkutei Sichos vol. 4 Parshas Korach,will be presented on Thursday, Parshas Korach, 3Tamuz, 5783, June 22, 2023, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. It was on Shabbos Korach 61 years ago, in 1962, when the Rebbe revealed the inner depth of what was Korach's mistake. As it turns out, Korach grasped one of the powerful ideas of Chassidus: The power of physical actions in the physical world. He glorified the technical and physicalrituals of Judaism. But when you lose the soul, you can end up in the abyss. The Rebbe, in this historical Sicha, explains the two common errors people can make: The mistakeof the spies who shunned the physical world; and the mistake of Korach who thought you can divorce Yiddishkeit from inner spiritual and emotional work.
