Insight of the Week

ELUL 5784 - Monday, September 9, 2024
The month of Elul
is a time of preparation when we examine ourselves, regret our misdeeds
and resolve to improve in order to reach a level so that, on Rosh
Hashana and Yom Kippur, G-dly revelation can descend to
us.
Ascentof Safed is designed to be a place for relaxation, reflection,
interaction, and spiritual exploration, where you can grow and learn
in your own way, at your own pace, in an open atmosphere. You can
experience a wide range of learning, volunteer, creative, recreation
and other opportunities at Ascent as well as in the Old City of Tzfat.
We can help you create a personalized study plan, you can join one
of our weekend or weekday retreats, or you can come to relax and attend
study and meditation sessions at your leisure, while staying in our
great hostel with its spectacular views.
A home is not just a place to live and a wife is not
just one member of the household. Rather she is the spiritual glue
that holds everything together. So when the verse says, " build
a new house", it is actually speaking about the beginning of
a marriage.
If you enjoyed Saturday
Night Full Moon", you're sure to want its sequel. Another
collection of intriguing Stories of Kabbalah Sages, Chasidic Masters
and other Jewish Heroes by Ascent's storymaster, Yerachmiel Tilles.
