Learning with Reb Shlomo Carlebach (51)

A gentle, luminous dive into the Torah of sleep, circles, and hidden light.In this week’s chaburah, Rav Leibish opens the teachings of Rav Shlomo Carlebach and the Kabbalists on Kislev, Hanukkah, and the deeper meaning of nighttime consciousness.He explores why Hanukkah is the one chag rooted in darkness, how the circle energy of this month transcends linear thinking, and why the Kabbalah sees sleep as a spiritual gateway — not a retreat.Along the way, he weaves stories of the Greeks, the Beis HaMikdash, the Holy of Holies as a “bedroom,” the subconscious, and the Carlebach path of flowing, intuitive avodah.Topics include:Reb Shlomo’s Torah on light emerging from the end of the circleWhy Kislev is tied to Binyamin, sleep, and renewalGreek intellect vs. Jewish consciousnessThe Beis HaMikdash as the deepest place of onenessIntegrating conscious, subconscious, and super-conscious avodahHow Hanukkah invites us into a different kind of awarenessIf this learning speaks to you, follow the show and share it with someone who loves deep Torah.Recorded Nov 23, 2025.▶️ Watch Reb Leibish chaburahs on YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@RavLeibishHundert⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🙏🏼 Support Simchat Shlomo:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ysstorah.org/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#ShlomoCarlebach #Torah #RavLeibishHundert #SimchasShlomo #Breslov #Spirituality #Jerusalem #JewishLearning
