    Don't go to daven with anxiety or machlokis

    And therefore in Chabad we study chassidus which has no back and forth, no machlokis, even holy machlokis like gemora, before davenning.  And so the Rebbe Rashab established Tomchei Temimim yeshivas to have a daily seder where chassidus began the day before davenning and ended the day before sleep unlike the existing yeshivas at the time.

    In the days of the Alter Rebbe, bread was an issue

    Today, slow internet is an issue. 

    Maslow's hierarchy. As a society, especially in western society, the basics are covered.  A poor person today has a "small" color tv, an old car, etc. The poor person today is much richer than the gvir of yesteryear. 

    This maamer directed to those involved in striggling for simple bread. 

    Still, whatever is our issue today can be the modetn subject of "tirdos haparnassa".

    Everybody knows that a "near death experience"

    Often results in a greatly enhanced life after that NDE.

    The NDE brings out the innermost koychos of the person.  If not religious beforehand, they often become so afterwards. A person returning from the brink of death, upon return, realizes what is true and whst not, what is important and what not.

    To a lesser degree, this is true of every "dark" experience.  After that experience the inner koychos can come out.

    Our goodness discovered thru our light

    But....our "miod", our "very" is only discovered thru our darkness. 

    Of course.

    That which comes easy, without struggle, only brings out a limited amount of our wherewithal.

    But....that which comes with struggle (think childbirth) brings out a much deeper  amount of our wherewithal.  

    So its darkness that brings out the most
