Why You Feel Better When You Stop Judging People","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":2945,"description":"One of the greatest obstacles to inner peace isn't what happens inside of us.It's what we think about everyone else.In this week's shiur, Rav Shlomo Katz and the women of Shirat David explore a foundational teaching that sits at the heart of Rebbe Nachman's path to tranquility: learning how to see people differently.Beginning with the Gemara's command to judge others favorably, Rav Shlomo uncovers a profound teaching from Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch that completely reframes what justice actually means. Is judging favorably simply being nice? Is it ignoring reality? Or is it possible that true justice requires seeing a much bigger picture than what our eyes can grasp?Through stories, practical examples, and an introduction to Rebbe Nachman's teaching of Azamra, this shiur reveals why our assumptions about other people are often built on incomplete information, and why learning to see the good in others may be one of the most powerful paths to peace within ourselves.Because at the end of the day, it really does feel better when we like people.----------For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.comJoin Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_tCHAPTERS00:00 Special Shiur Introduction and Excitement02:36 Gemara Quote on Judging Friends03:36 Question: Is Favorable Judgment True Justice?04:59 Halachic Dilemma: Judging Favorably vs Reality07:09 Sefer Chasidim on Not Judging Unfavorably08:50 Do We Really Know Friends' Spiritual Levels?11:01 Upcoming Part Two and Preview of Hirsch14:33 Justice Defined as Truth of Truths17:21 Conclusion: Objective Justice and Inner Peace20:27 Jacob and Isaac Blessing Parable24:12 When Blessings Weaken and Life Falls Apart26:36 Rav Hirsch on Seeing Beneath the Surface31:07 Removing Narrow Lenses to See True Reality39:15 Rebbe Nachman’s Azamra: Finding Good in Everyone41:37 The Challenge of Objective Judgment in Practice48:03 Loving From Distance:...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/bX2nZ1g2EKvVMmoEaELW21_sHsygmoXEAnrqUq2lr2I/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zNDY3/ZWQzNDIzZmQ1Y2Nm/OTkyNGIxZjI1YmFh/NzRhZS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
