But when I begin to tell myself that I need the right circumstances, the right comforts, the right possessions — maybe even the right spiritual experience — before I can really serve Hashem, something has gotten between us.\nAnd from there we move into one of the most beautiful images in the shiur: being pulled toward Hashem like iron toward a magnet. Sometimes He has already been pulling us for years. We just had a completely different picture in our heads of what that pull was supposed to look like.  \n00:00 Opening Blessings and Sponsorships\n01:27 What Does It Mean to “Know Hashem”?\n03:00 The Chernobler: Why the World Was Created\n04:25 Yichud: Oneness and Your Unique Avodat Hashem\n11:31 The Purpose of Creation: Knowing Hashem\n13:47 When Material Things Become Spiritual Barriers\n23:19 Being Pulled Toward Hashem Like a Magnet\n24:54 When Miracles Don’t Look the Way We Expected\n26:25 Marriage and the Expectations We Bring With Us\n27:28 Aliyah and the Reality We Didn’t Picture\n29:01 Can Someone Far From Torah Still Feel the Pull?\n30:33 The Friends Who Hold Back Your Growth\n31:37 Living Every Day With the Purpose in Mind\n32:45 When Even the Shulchan Aruch Becomes Avodah Zarah\n------\nFor more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com\nJoin Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/WSjCna_uB2m-GU4vpT3wxUAze0ffizILW-9_tM9o8Jc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yZmU1/NTZlZTA3NjRhMTVl/MzI1N2Y1ZWU3ZDY5/NDdhOC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
