Chayei Sara: The Art of Genuine Satisfaction

from Beis Avraham of Slonim on the Parsha with Rav Shlomo Katz · host Rav Shlomo Katz

Is it possible to be truly satisfied in a world that constantly screams "More"?In this tribute to Rabbi Jonathan Sacks zt"l, Rav Shlomo Katz explores the life of Sarah Imeinu through the Beis Avraham of Slonim. We analyze the verse "And Sarah was 100 years, and 20 years, and 7 years," uncovering the secret of carrying the purity of childhood and the passion of youth into old age. Rav Shlomo discusses the difference between being "Sameach B'Chelko" (happy with one's lot) and being fully "Savua" (satisfied). We learn that Sarah attained the level of the name Shakkai—the ability to say "Enough" and find the Infinite within the finite.This shiur is a guide to aging with grace, teaching that true youthfulness is a state of spirit, not a number. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.comJoin Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t
