Plagued byGossip...
Evil speech, or gossiping, is one of the worst actions anyone can commit. It brings negativity to the person who is gossiping, to the person who is being gossiped about, and to the person who is subjected to listening to the gossip.
Every time we say something negative, we create a negative entity, and such entities come back to haunt us when we least expect it. Evil tongue is one of the...

Mirror Ball...
The cosmos isstructured like a mirror: All the actions and emotions we project arereflected back on us. If we judge others, the Light will judge us inreturn. We have to learn to relate to every human being with love andcompassion— from a place of human dignity and without a personalagenda.

Will theWorld Change?
We usually want tochange the world because we selfishly want to make our lives better. Butin truth, when we want to make our lives better, that is when the worldwill change.

Keep it Real...
Spiritually, themost important thing is to be an authentic human being. This comes beforestudy or learning or understanding. As they come to know more, many peoplehave a tendency to lose sight of this. They become overly pious becausethey need to cover up what they once were.
But if increased knowledge causes the loss of their essential humanity,then they are missing the point, and getting...

I’ll Start Tomorrow...
Something my mother Karen often says is that every time it’s time to start a diet or quitdrinking, we say, “I’ll begin tomorrow.” But when we want somethingfrom God, we want it now. Life doesn’t work that way. If you wantsomething, then you have to change.
What do you have to change? That is for you to figure out. All I can tellyou is that you can’t put things off until tomorrow and expect...

Retie theTies...
We all have thetendency to write people off when they disappoint us. Not just any people. The ones closest to us. Sons not talking to mothers, brothers estrangedfrom sisters, best friends at war. If only we realized that our negativeactions don’t define who we are, then we’d have more tolerance for eachother. We are all works in progress.
Today, focus on one close relationship that puts your...

Eliminating Negative Thoughts: Ayin Lamed Mem
When obessive thoughts-worry, anxiety, fear, pessimism, uncertainty and negative fantasies-invade us, we can “take out minds back” and focus on thoughts that move us forward, not backwards.
Meditation:
You are now switching off destructive thoughts emanating from the ego. In the space that is then opened, a gentle radiance of spiritual Light floods your heart and mind.

Unprepared and Willing...
A lot of times we are afraid to commit because we are afraid we will fail. The truth is, it’s only in making the commitment that we receive the energy to overcome. In fact, the best commitments we can make are in areas where we are the weakest. We’re often afraid to go for the things we long for because we think we’re unprepared. We don’t want to charge into action unless we personally feel...

Gone In a Flash...
Every spiritual revelation comes as a flash – it shows itself, we get it, and then it disappears. And when we get it, it’s so clear! Sometimes it happens once in a while, other times we can see clearly right before we go to bed, but when we wake up, we forget it. The clarity we have disappears.
Chasing it is like pulling on a loose string - the whole garment comes undone. Instead, focus on using...

Held in Escrow...
Why are some people blessed with over-abundance, while others have nothing? The answer to this common question is, a person is not showered with blessings so they can just indulge in pleasure. When we have more than we need, it does not really belong to us. From a spiritual point of view, it has been given to us to hold in escrow. Our personal gifts and physical possessions are intended to be...

Patience is Certainty...
What is at the root of missed opportunities? A simple lack of patience. Because what, after all, is patience? Just the unshakeable knowledge – the certainty – that what is in our best interest will come to be. Patience allows us to repel all doubt and stay the course during times of difficulty rather than seek or create poor substitutes for fulfillment.

Godly Part From Above...
Souls have the power to be one with God—and each of us has this power. As Rav Ashlag (founder of The Kabbalah Centre) calls it: “a Godly part from Above.” But inside each of us is also a reactive part. Only by restricting that reactive part can we become like the Creator—the cause rather than the effect.
Today, give yourself over to the holy part of you. This means connecting to the proactive...
What's Your View?
The body is all about our desire to receive, and the soul is the desire to share. The spiritual path is about making sure our actions come from the point of view of the soul. How do we know if our actions are coming from the soul? It’s not easy, it’s without agenda, and we’re not only thinking of ourselves.
Check your agenda and comfort at the door today.

Find Your Peace...
Give yourself time to meditate and find a place of refuge within yourself. This is how you can taste the truth of the teaching, your true happiness does not come from outside of you.

God, Why Me?
Often we ask, “Why did God do this to me?” The answer is, to take us to a higher spiritual level. We can’t always see this at the moment. But we can have the strength to say, “Someday I will look back and I will know why. So now I will accept the discomfort.”
There is a reason for everything, and we must understand that whatever happens to us at any given time, is the best thing that could happen...
