The Parshah Connection: Connecting to Hashem through the Parshah and Yamim Tovim

The Rema writes at the beginning of Orach Chaim that "Shevisi Hashem l'negdi samid" (Tehillim 16:8) is a klal gadol baTorah. The message inherent in his words is very clear: Keeping Hashem in front of us at all times is not just a lofty aspiration but a fundamental obligation that forms the bedrock of our daily lives.

Drawing from the timeless wisdom of the Chovos Halevavos and many other Gedolim throughout the generations, this sefer unveils the essence of our mission in life: to maintain a constant connection to Hashem through our thoughts. Whether engaged in mitzvos, learning, relaxing, or any mundane activity, our minds should always be attuned to Hashem.

By reading this sefer, you will immerse yourself in unique, thought-provoking, and practical insights derived from the weekly parshah and Yamin Tovim. By sharing ideas and anecdotes from this sefer, you will greatly enrich your Shabbos- and Yom Tov-table discussions.

Here too, the message is very clear: Those who are connected to Hashem live life as a constant celebration. The more we connect to Hashem, the more we experience joy, fulfillment, and serenity in both this world and the next.
