Chinuch is sometimes translated as education or discipline, but neither do justice to the term; however how to be a mechanech requires education and discipline - on the part of the parents! Chinuch really means inauguration - and when we are blessed with a child we are given the ability to prepare him or her for their future role as members of Klal Yisrael. Possibly the most lasting legacy one can create is forging the future link to continue the seamless chain of Klal Yisrael. This series of shiurim will explore the principles and applications of raising the next generation of Avdei Hashem This is the introductory shiur in this series

Written in dialogue form it allows the King Kuzari to ask all the questions we would be too timid to voice ourselves and gives the Chacham the ability to address them - all in the clear, confident style of Rav Yehuda Halevi. The times have changed and the world has progressed, but the same timeless truths remain steadfast. In today's world people also look for answers to their questions on Yiddishkeit, and the Kuzari provides the background to discuss the issues of today with the wisdom of yesteryear.

The Kuzari could be described as the manifesto of Judaism. Written in dialogue form it allows the King Kuzari to ask all the questions we would be too timid to voice ourselves and gives the Chacham the ability to address them - all in the clear, confident style of Rav Yehuda Halevi. The times have changed and the world has progressed, but the same timeless truths remain steadfast.

The principles of Judaism : Torah study, Mitzva observance, prayer, the spiritual neshamah and Hashem's presence are all concepts we live with daily, but only on their most superficial level. For the ben aliya looking to explore more of the tremendous depth and meaning inherent in Torah and uncover the limitless potential for growth in Yiddishkeit, no sefer explores these concepts more clearly than Rav Chaim Voloziner's classic, the Nefesh Hachayim. As the primary disciple of the Vilna Gaon, R Chayim is able to weave the Gaon's approach to machshava, nistar and mussar into a breathtaking tapestry of understanding.
