סיכום השיעור:
Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov (1698-1760), the founder of Chassidism, granted Judaism a sophistication, depth, and richness, which allow us to appreciate Torah with a new light.
One of his most fundamental teachings was that G-d was not a force above the world manipulating and controlling it, but rather G-d was the name we use to describe the very truth and essence of Reality; the core and backdrop of all existence.
Therefore, in every thought there was meaning, in every experience there was joy, in every encounter there was energy of the Divine. You can find G-d in all.
This class takes us on a journey into one of the Baal Shem Tov’s teachings on how to deal with alien and destructive thoughts that inundate us during prayer and meditation. 150 years before the birth of psychoanalysis, the Baal Shem Tov taught us how the external manifestation of a thought may eclipse its inner meaning. Every thought needs healing and sublimation. Yet there are exceptions.

Batya, how condescending to infer that Baalei Teshuva are "ignoramuses" while they likely have attained more in their lives than you can ever expect to yourself. Get a life Batya! What a beautiful essay!

WHY SECULAR NAMES?
I like your very insightful articles but I'm very disappointed that you only use the the English names of all our great personalities
and when you quote the Pesukim they're also in English. It sounds like the New Testament, Lehavdil, and doesn't have the Taam of the Loshon Hakodesh. I understand that a big part of your audience is made up of Baalei Teshuva, but you're helping them stay Ignoramuses.
Surely everybody can recognize Moshe Rabeinu and no need to use Moses etc.

Danger of Passivity

How?
I agree and I faint at night with worry. But I, too, say, HOW am I to protest. I am sick myself and after just taking care of myself I have almost no energy, My one grandchild has been brought up by an assimilated mother. My influence seems minimal. I continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and our holy Jewish people. Oslo is a done deal. I think we may need to make

How sad that you deprive yourself of the joy Rabbi Jacobson's classes and essays create. People have differences of opinion, but then there's truth and truth is painful. It is not easy to open one's mind and be willing to be possibly change one's stance.
Rabbi Jacobson does not seek nor need my approbation, but here the fault is not in the mouth and pen of the instructor. So sad, but, indeed I understand that you prefer to go back and listen and read words of those who allow you to stay in your old mindset.
