Zos Chukas 5721 #2: Why Is Our Youth Today So "Crazy?" Maybe It's Not Just the Technology

Description

What Does Bitul/Surrender Feel Like in Our Bodies? My Own Struggle with Authenticity For Source Sheets: https://www.theyeshiva.net/jewish/9630 This class is the second in a series on the Maamar (Chassidic discourse) Zos Chukas Hatorah, presented by the Lubavitcher Rebbe at the Farbrengen of Shabbos Parshas Vayakhel-Pekudei, Parshas Parah, 23 Adar, 5721, March 11, 1961. This text-based class by Rabbi YY Jacobson was presented on Thursday, 20 Adar, 5785, March 20, 2025, Parshas Vayakhel, Parshas Parah, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. The class explores a deeply enigmatic Midrash comparing the two Mitzvos of Pesach and the Red Cow to two queens of whom we do not know who is greater. We continue to discuss why the only labor specified in the Torah not to do on Shabbos is igniting a fire, and the meaning of Moshe comparing Hashem to a "consuming flame." We explain what is the wick that channels the Divine flame and light into our world and how surrender is the key to the fire burning in our consciousness and our universe.
