Derech Hashem: The Most Important Question You’re Not Asking Yourself

Who are you? Not your name. Not your body. Not even your brain. In this mind-opening class, Rabbi Shafier walks you through a Musar exercise that sounds simple but changes everything: identifying the real “you.” He explains why you are not a physical being having spiritual moments, but a spiritual being temporarily wearing a body. Along the way, he unpacks the tension you feel every day — the pull between your higher self and your animal instincts — and why sometimes you don’t even recognize your own behavior. Using powerful analogies and practical tools, he shows how to cut through the noise and access the deeper voice inside that already knows the right thing to do. If you’ve ever felt conflicted, confused, or disconnected from yourself, this class will give you clarity about who’s actually in charge — and who you truly are.
