\\u2022 Chassidus Applied to Yud Tes-Chof Kislev and Vayeishev 0:24

\\n

\\u2022 How can we say that the Yidden had Bechirah by matan torah - Hashem picked up the mountain over their heads?  09:20

\\n

\\u2022 Is there anything wrong with listening to Jewish music that are not niggunim?  13:36

\\n

\\u2022 Is there a reason the Rebbe does not put so much emphasis on Rebbetzin Devorah Leah's story? It seems that Chassidim feel very emotional about it, and I was wondering if there is an explanation as to why, for example the Rebbe does not say a sicha every year about it?  17:05

\\n

\\u2022 What's the regard that we, as Dor Hashvi Chassidim (who never knew any other Rabeim) should be having with the Chassidus of the six previous Rabbeim - besides for the Horaos the Rebbe clearly gave (i.e.  Chitas, Tanya, Likuttei Torah, Torah Ohr ex.)? Shouldn't we be only/ mainly learning our generations Chassidus? But then what about the rest of Chassidus?  21:18

\\n

\\u2022 Should I be nervous when something comes too easy, if it says yagati umatzati taamin? 26:43

\\n

\\u2022 Why do we teach and give Chassidus to young children? Why don't we hold it back a bit so they can appreciate it when they grow up?  29:00

\\n

\\u2022 How can one attain real bittul if one can actually have the Rebbes will be his own?  31:43

\\n

\\u2022 What's a mashpia for - we know she is to connect you to the Rebbe but how?  35:08

\\n

\\u2022 What is Torah's perspective on therapy? If Torah has all the answers on how to live a healthy life, then why the need for therapy? And if Torah does, why does it not feel applicable? If it isn't, then what's our approach to this all?  38:43

\\n

\\u2022 What should I do if my feelings are numb? I've been through some really painful things in the past few years and until a little while ago, I felt the pain, it hurt, I cried, but now I just don't feel anything anymore.  I also stopped feeling for things in Yiddishkeit. What's the way to start feeling my emotions again?  43:15

\\n

\\u2022 What is a practical way to think of/ deal with having depression and anxiety disorder?  47:27

\\n

\\u2022 When an emotion arouses what should one do with it?  49:48

\\n

\\u2022 How can I use my capabilities of doing all my dreams now when I am only in high school, is it true that my fullest potential is kind of blocked by my position as a student?  52:00

\\n

\\u2022 Why does hashem set people up for failure? Like when Moshe hit the rock, Hashem purposely made him hit the rock so the yidden wouldn't get into Eretz Yisroel etc. 54:19

\\n

\\u2022 Are all neshamos the same? If not, what makes them different?  56:44

\\n

\\u2022 Will we turn into malachim?  59:21

\\n

\\u2022 Will the world ever end?  01:00:34

\\n

\\u2022 Do tzadikim start out perfect? if not how would someone know if they are a tzadik?  01:02:17

\\n

\\u2022 What does chassidish mean?  01:04:44

\\n

\\u2022 How do you deal with bad influences?  01:05:56

\\n

\\u2022 If time is a creation down here and there's no concept of time above, why do we say a Neshama is busy for 30 days after it's niftar?  01:07:16

\\n

\\u2022  When the Sforno talks about Moshe hitting the rock, he brings in 3 types of miracles. The first one is Tzadikim davening. Why does it mention specifically Tzadikim, can't all yidden daven? And if it's specifically for Tzadikim why are we all encouraged to daven when someone is unwell?  01:10:04

\\n

\\u2022  I like learning geography and world history, but it's not really chochmas haumas - so am I allowed to learn it?  01:11:13

\\n

\\u2022 What does it mean hesech ha\\u2019daas in relation to validating your emotions?  01:11:50

\\n

\\u2022 The Rebbe says that we have finished our avodah and we are ready to greet Moshiach, but the Rebbe also says that we haven't done enough and need to do even more. Which one is it? 01:13:42
