Born in Boro Park and raised in Monsey, Rabbi Wallerstein's journey was that of a ordinary man, who rose to extraordinary heights through sheer will and compassion. 

Hatred between fellow Jews, tears  the fabric what holds us together. It is not just one Jew failing, it's betrayal of a deep bond.

A personal prayer with HaShem can best be explained as having a dialoque with one of your parents or with a trusted friend. When we start davening that way, we are avoiding obstacles of not knowing what to say.

It is very important to strenghen our foudation of our beliefs in HaShem and the Torah, and having complete trust. There are many approaches, but not every approach is suitable for all. Go to your Rabbi and together work out what is the right approach of Torah learning for your mindset and personality, this will not only help you better understand what you are learning but also strenghten your emunah.

With antisemitic violence and harassment at an all-time high, it’s a scary time to be a Jew. But you know what feels even scarier? Being a silent one.

When our world is filled with darkness and it seems there is no light on the end of the tunnel, remember that it is HaShem who runs the show and in charge of all that is happening. We have to maintain an positive outlook and with having emunah we understand that it is all for best, that there is a reason. 

         Humanity left this world on October 7 🕯🎗

B"H It is Elul, a month which was always so special, with the sounds of the Shofar on Rosh Chodesh Elul. A time to prepare ourselves for the High Holidays. But somehow this year it feels a bit different, the spark inside and the joy in what used to be so obvious.

The effect of Torah learning relates to the spiritual connection, which it create. The study of Torah is necessary matter, since without a person could never come to observe the mitzvos, for he or she doesn't know wat is commanded to do or not to do. Aside from this, the study of Torah fulfills in perfecting us. The Ramchal tells us that the fundamental concept of Torah learning, the essence of Torah is the Divine influence, the words of Torah as we read and understand these words, G-dliness will elevate our entire being.

The concept of Teshuvah is not only associated with sins or transgressions. We can repent even when we didn't transgressed, as the meaning of Teshuvah is to return to our source. Every soul goes through a spiritual downfall at some point and with that we are losing our G-dly sensitivity.

Judaism has a body and soul, the two are in harmony and find expression through embracing the body and comes alive through merging with the soul. The body and soul in Judaism is halacha. Halacha means " The Way " the way we live, the way we do things, or don't do things.

October the 7th on Shabbos morning, as many were getting ready to go to Shul. Its Simchat Torah and as many sang  and danced with the Torah Scroll, the news was slowly spreading, whispers and worried faces, men in IDF uniforms hurrying out of the doors. A strange feeling, mixed emotions of joy and fear.

Dear World,

The fate of Haman has been throughout history the fate of individuals and nations: that those who try to destroy the Jewish people end by destroying themselves. Great empires sought to harm the Jewish people... Yet every one of them has disappeared, while our tiny, vulnerable people can still say: ‘Am Yisrael Chai.’

Our soul or neshama is The self, as Beresheis describes the soul as HaShem's breath  " And G-d breathed into the nostrils the breath of live. "

What would be my Shabbos project? It has to be something that would make a difference. The world we live in,and the blame on Israel for defending itselves. This is not a new thing, as we all know when the western world fails terribly, they need someone to blame and who is better to blame then the Jews.
