The letter praises the recipient’s efforts but says they are far below what is truly possible—especially in Eretz Yisrael today. It points out that even secular leftist movements succeed because they act with passion, discipline, unity, sacrifice for the collective, and obedience to leadership—qualities Chassidus demands for holy work—while Chassidim often fail to fully harness the blessing available to them due to complacency or division. The *Igros Kodesh* are the published volumes of the Rebbe’s correspondence with people from every background and stage of life—addressing subjects ranging from profound scholarly matters to everyday concerns of health, family, finances, and emotional struggle—through which we gain a rare glimpse into how the Rebbe approached life itself, and from which we learn how to look at our own lives through that lens. For the thirty days leading up to 11 Nissan, the Rebbe’s birthday, join us each night for a live class with Rabbi Shais Taub exploring another letter from Igros Kodesh. *In honor of the 2nd birthday of Yehuda Meir ben Bracha Pesha and the yarhzeit of Yehuda’s great grandmother, also on 11 Adar, Chavole bas Zev Velvel* *PDF of the letter:* https://www.soulwords.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/30-letters-30-days-2.pdf --- *For more classes from Rabbi Shais Taub:* 🌐 *Website:* https://www.soulwords.org/ *Follow Rabbi Shais Taub:* 📸 *Instagram:* https://www.instagram.com/rabbi_shais_taub 🎥 *TikTok:* https://www.tiktok.com/@rabbi_shais_taub 🐦 *X (Twitter):* https://www.x.com/ShaisTaub 📘 *Facebook:* https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573478244968 💼 *LinkedIn:* https://www.linkedin.com/in/shais-taub-81a95466/ 🎧 *Listen to the SoulWords Podcast:* 🎵 *Spotify:* https://open.spotify.com/show/51E7XHWFDbZCGJQz7CoAZP 🍏 *Apple Podcasts:* https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/soulwords-full-library/id1450892501 *About SoulWords:* SoulWords is a virtual community hosted by Rabbi Shais Taub, where people come together to explore the spiritual insights of Torah and discover their unique purpose.
