   Glasses, Contacts, and Vision Loss

   While exploring letters from the Rebbe that describe Segulos for good eyesight and spiritual cures for vision loss, we also discuss the Rebbe's position on contact lenses. And, as a bonus, we demonstrate from primary sources, photographs, and paintings that a least four Chabad Rabbeim wore glasses.

   Is Fear Part of Judaism?

   Exploring the Rebbe's attitude toward "Yira Tata", a baseline fear of G-d that is usually associated with accepting the yoke of heaven and a fundamental fear of sin. In Chassidus, where our focus is often love and awe of G-d, is there room for this baseline fear? And in the month of Elul, when the King is in the field smiling at us, is Yira Tata still important?

   The Power of Tehillim

   Letters, Sichos, and stories from our Rabbeim on the power of Tehillim, covering three major points: 1) The history behind the Previous Rebbe's decree that psalms should be read after prayers and in Tehillim Groups. 2) The power of Tehillim as the ultimate Segulah for all of our needs. 3) The importance of dedicating Rosh Hashanah not to idle conversation or even Torah study, but the non-stop saying of psalms.
