The Trust Factor
A daily lesson that focuses on achieving unparalleled success in life using ancient wisdom in modern times.
We will be discussing critical concepts as they are laid out in the book Sha'ar Habitachon - The Gate of Trust. Written 1000 years ago, the author reminds us of the values and wisdom that have allowed humanity to thrive throughout history.
The concept of trusting in a higher power that exists purely for our benefit, puts us in the drivers seat with absolute confidence to achieve greatness.
Eliminate: Fear, Hatred, Anxiety, Depression, Jealousy, Greed...forever!
* Note that some terminology will be in the original Hebrew or Aramaic which I will always follow with the English translation.

Episode 10 - Breaking Free: Recognizing Modern Slavery in the Month of Nisan
The dawn of Nisan marks not just another month, but a gateway to profound spiritual transformation. This sacred time carries the divine promise: "In Nisan you were redeemed, and in Nisan you will be redeemed again." But what does redemption mean for those who don't wear physical chains?
Modern slavery takes insidious forms—our desperate reach for phones upon waking, our submission to technology's constant demands, our struggles with addictions that masquerade as choices. We've become servants to everything except the One we should truly serve. Yet Nisan arrives with extraordinary siyata dishmaya (heavenly assistance) specifically designed to break these invisible bonds.
Jewish tradition teaches that each holiday creates "auspicious times" where specific spiritual energies flow more abundantly. Just as Shavuot amplifies our Torah learning capacity, Nisan supercharges our ability to recognize what enslaves us and find liberation. This isn't merely symbolic—it's practical spiritual mechanics at work. The divine calendar offers strategic windows for targeted growth, and Nisan specializes in freedom.
The path to genuine bitachon (trust in Hashem) requires understanding who we truly serve. When we approach others who have strayed, we must do so from complete altruism—privately, lovingly, without self-interest. True faith empowers us to fulfill difficult commandments without fear of status or power.
Ready to break your personal Egypt? This month offers unparalleled divine partnership for those seeking freedom. Identify what binds you, direct your prayers toward liberation, and watch as ancient promises fulfill themselves in your modern life. The redemption begins now.
