With deep sorrow, we announce the passing of the brother of Reb Chaim Kramer, Yisrael Dovid ben Tzvi.

Please, if you are able, recite Tehillim (Psalms) or learn Mishnayos for his merit.

May it be HaShem's will that the words of the haftarah be fulfilled for all of us: "For HaShem has comforted Tzion, He has comforted all her ruins…"
This Monday evening, with HaShem's help, will be the wedding of the grandson of Rav Chaim Kramer, the son of his son Zvi Kramer.

The entire BRI family is invited.
May we share many joyous occasions together.
Places are running out! We have only 5 beds left in a room of 8. If you would like to stay and experience Uman Rosh Hashanah with BRI, please act now and don't delay.

"And it shall be, because you will listen… HaShem your G-d will safeguard you, love you, and increase you…" (Devarim 7:12)

"The 'light' mitzvos that a person tramples under his heel" (Rashi).

Have you ever considered how essential dancing is in Avodas HaShem?

Reb Avraham the son of Reb Nachman of Tulchin, in his sefer Kochvey Or, explains that this is the inner meaning of what Rebbe Nachman teaches in Likutey Moharan II, Torah 169 (Vehayah eikev tishma'un): when we bring joy into our very heels, and literally dance in order to attain the joy of a mitzvah, we merit a special siyata diShmaya - that HaShem will safeguard the holy covenant for us.

In our generation, there are no spiritual pitfalls more severe than breaches in this area. And the only true remedy is simchas mitzvah - joy in serving HaShem.

Precisely because of this, it can be hard for us to simply believe that this is really what is being asked of us: to dance, and dance, and dance again. Of course, it should be done in a way that won't push people away - but it's so simple to take a friend's hand after davening and dance out of pure joy that we merited to pray Shacharis, or during the day, when we feel sadness creeping in, to simply compel ourselves to dance.

This is the deeper meaning of Rashi's words, "that a person tramples with his heel" - we do not realize the immense power contained in such joy. It can lift us out of blemishes to the covenant, and give us the strength to withstand all the trials and spiritual challenges of our time.

Try it - and you will see. Hatzlachah!
