Shabbos 21 - BYam Darkecha

In this wide-ranging and deeply personal shiur, Rav Dov Ber Cohen explores what it truly means to prepare for Shabbat, not just physically but inwardly. Drawing on the imagery of consciousness and content, screen and movie, he teaches that most of us have fallen so deeply into the film of our own psyche that we have lost touch with the pure awareness underneath. Shabbat, he explains, is the weekly return to that still white screen, and Friday is the sacred bridge that carries us there. Rabbi Dov Ber traces the week through the lens of nefesh, ruach, and neshama, and maps the days of the week onto the sefirot, showing how all of it flows toward Shabbat as its source and destination. He speaks with warmth about the yetzer hara's particular hostility on Erev Shabbat, and why recognizing that tension is itself part of the avodah. Preparation, he reminds us, is not just logistics. It is learning, yearning, and arriving with matches. Living in Tune with Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen Mindfulness, Torah wisdom, and inner work for a calmer, more aligned life.
