Clearing the Mud

Clearing the Mud with Chavie Bruk is a weekly Tanya class about fusing the raw, messy human experience with the age old teachings of the Torah. We are all born imperfect; this is inherent to the human condition. The novelty is how we repair. By normalizing struggle we accelerate the process of healing.

    Tanya Igeres Hateshuva Chapter 6a

    In this week’s episode of Clearing the Mud, we talk about how the Jewish people are a collective. Our actions don’t only impact our individual bodies and souls but affect the entire Jewish body. When we transgress or bring negative energy into the world it affects the whole Jewish body as a collective and when we add positivity into the world it likewise affects the whole Jewish body. We are one organism.

    Tanya Igeres Hateshuva Chapter 5d

    In this week’s episode of Clearing the Mud, we talk about how Hashem channels two types of energies. One is an energy that we internalize and the other is an all-encompassing energy. The internalized energy is measured according to our actions. The encompassing energy remains steady and is not measured according to our actions.

    Tanya Igeres Hateshuva Chapter 5c

    In this week’s episode of Clearing the Mud, we talk about how nothing can happen in this world without G-d’s stamp of approval. Nothing can exist without G-d. The purpose of evil is to allow us free choice and as humans, we have free choice. When we transgress, we cause a separation between us and G-d. The only thing that allows us to separate from G-d is sin, which is doing the opposite of what G-d wants from us.

    Tanya Igeres Hateshuva Chapter 5b

    In this week's episode of Clearing the Mud, we explore the idea that G-d can indeed be found everywhere. However, we also know that disconnection can occur through sin. Nonetheless, this disconnection does not mean that G-d has departed, but rather that the person is unready to receive G-d’s presence.

    Tanya Igeres Hateshuva Chapter 5a

    In this week's episode of Clearing the Mud, we discuss how our soul originates from Hashem’s breath. Breath is the deepest part of who we are, so we come from the deepest part of Hashem. Every breath we take is Hashem breathing with us. It is through Hashem’s continuous act of breathing life into us that we are able to breathe, every minute, every day.

    Tanya Igeres Hateshuva Chapter 4e

    In this episode of Clearing the Mud, we talk about how we have the internal part of our soul and the external manifestation of our soul. The most crucial aspect of our service is to bring the internal to the external. Thus, we aim to translate our thoughts and emotions into action, shaping the way we live our lives.

    Tanya Igeres Hateshuva Chapter 4d

    In this episode of Clearing the Mud, we talk about how Hashem created the world with the twenty-two letters of the Aleph-Beis, each symbolizing a distinct energy flow to create something from nothing. This explains why our service of Hashem is inherently individual and unique. Within each of us lies a unique energy flow, making no two combinations of energies alike. As a result, our service of Hashem is a direct reflection of our true selves, originating from the depths of our souls.
