The heart of change Rambam says that if you are not comfortable giving 10% than give 15%. For most, this is not a cure, it's creating more inner turmoil. Using the methaphor of bending the stick, the stick, meaning you, will break. Probably the best formula for creating inner change is thru understanding yourself. Why are you troubled by giving charity? Are you worried that you won't have enough for your family? Did you have an early experience where you helped someone and then realized they cheated you, that is, the recipient didn't really need help, he was just too lazy to work or earned a living by begging? Or were you mocked after lending a hand and called a sucker? Or maybe you feel cheated, that you've given much and life hasn't reciprocated, that is, you hoped that doing good to others would come back to you in the form of "good luck" or karma...and it hasn't. Exploring these feelings, the unmet needs and how to cope with them is the beginning of healing but even that is not guaranteed. Reply
The Power of Change Dear Mrs. Freeman, are you saying that we can create our own Paradise, within ourselves? Then, there is not spiritual/physical paradise anywhere? I love your teachings, but I am trying to understand. This prayer you have just said, I have heard in the Christian world. It is a good prayer. For I, personally understand that we cannot change others, we can only change ourselves with the help of our G-d. But I also believe that there is, yes, a world to come. A Paradise created by G-d for those who follow His statutes, and teachings. As we chose that path of life, then we will inherit that Paradise. Either in an ethereal world or physical, it is our own choosing. But it is only through the Almighty G-d. Our love for Him, brings that transformation, because we do not want to lose Him. I would like your reply on this thought, if you would be so kind? I strongly believe that G-d makes the call in our heart, and if we listen, that is the beginning of our change. It is all done through Him. B''H Reply

Spiritual aura in the Tanya I would be interested in learning where in the Tanya the notion of aura is mentioned. I suspect it is somewhere in chapters 4-5 because of the subject matter, but I'd like to see the actually words. Thank you. Reply
