Oreyv 3 – תוכחה – Tokahcha – Who Can Rebuke? What Is Success? Ratzon – רעוא דרעוין – The 3 Yomim Tovim Parallel Yosef HaTzaddik, Moshe Rabbeinu, and Dovid HaMelech – Speaker: Rabbi Nasan Maimon.
Hilkhos Oreyv 3 is based on 2Likutey Moharan 4.
00:00 – PARAGRAPH 31. Tokhacha – Who can rebuke?
13:00 – NOTE about Likutey Tefilos as a way to pray for the ability to do mitzvos. [For example, Rav Nosson of Nemirov zal’s tefilah for Sefiras HaOmer is in 2Likutey Tefilos:36.]
18:00 – The word טוב – good – is only truly appropriate for דברים קדושים – all that connects one with faith in HaShem.
30:00 – ***What is true success? Ratzon to do the mitzvos. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE about Rabbi Michel Dorfman zal: “Since the whole world was created for me, it’s my job to look for what’s lacking in the world and to fill that need. HaShem created the world incomplete, so that each person has something to do. But all we can actually do is to pray. Those two words – “to pray” – are the explanation of how this repair can be done: to pray for everything in the world. Tefilah is ratzon – it expresses our desire to repair the world to HaShem, Who is the only One Who can actually complete the repair.”
35:00 – NOTE on the lowest spiritual level, called שמד. The highest level is רצון. Moshe Rabbeinu, the tzaddik, is the bridge between the lowest and highest level.
36:30 – Q&R about how to give tokhacha – rebuke – to children.
38:30 – PARAGRAPH 32. Siddur: the tefilah “Tzidkaskha”. Tzedakah generates the light of ratzon. רעוא דרעוין – the three major Yomim Tovim correspond to Yosef HaTzaddik, Moshe Rabbeinu, and Dovid HaMelech.
