| Flames
A Chanukah Discourse by Rabbi DovBer of Lubavitch
Translated by Dr. Naftali Loewenthal
"Flames" focuses on the multiple images of the lamp; the oil, the wick and the different hues of the flame, in order to express profound guidance in the divine service of every individual: Just as the oil fuses flame and wick, so does the performance of practical mitzvot keep the radiance of the soul kindled upon the body. | |

On Ahavas Yisrael
By Rabbi Sholom DovBer Schneersohn of Lubavitch

Human personality is instead, often given to baseless hatred. This discourse deals with the spiritual roots of such hatred, its practical consequences, and the remedies for it. | |
