Let’s DaVen Together

A Yad L’Achim Initiative

The global day of Tefillah

On Tu B’Av - Friday, July 27th, at 10:00 a.m. EST, thousands of Jews from around the world will unite in tefillah for all the singles in Klal Yisrael.

Tu B’Av has become synonymous with tefillah for Shidduchim. The gemara writes in Maseches Taanis: “There have never been such good days for Klal Yisrael like Tu B’Av and Yom Kippur.”

For the third year in a row, with the blessings and encouragement of Gedolei Yisrael, Yad L’Achim is launching “Tu B’Av Together,” a global day of tefillah. A minyan of talmidei chachamim, messengers of Yad L’Achim, will be davening in Amuka, the resting place of the holy Tanna Yonasan Ben Uziel on Tu B’Av for all who submit their names to Yad L’Achim. There is no minimum donation required to submit names for tefillah.

While the talmidei chachamim will be davening for several hours, at exactly 10:00 a.m. EST (5 p.m. in Eretz

Yisrael) they will lead the global tefillah for shidduchim. The following kapitlach (chapters) will be recited ‫קכ’’ח‬, ‫קכ’’ז‬, ‫קכ’’ד‬, ‫קכ’’א‬, ‫פ’’ב‬, ’‫ע‬, ‫ל’’ח‬, ‫( ל’’ב‬Psalms 32, 38, 70, 82, 121, 124). For those few minutes, the cries and heartfelt tefillah of the Jewish People will beseech our Heavenly Father on behalf of all those who seek their bashert.

Thousands of Yidden from around the world will unite in tefillah at the very same moment so that all singles find their zivug hagun b’karov. Yad L’Achim is launching this worldwide initiative as a merit all the singles to find their bashert and specifically for the women and young adults rescued from the Arab Villages that they may marry bnei Torah.

The success of “TU B’AV TOGETHER” is dependent on you! Here are several ways you can help make it a success: • Gather a group of friends and or family to recite the kapitlach on Tu B’Av morning.

• Send around and share the name of the website www.TUBAVTOGETHER.com to friends and family, so that they can download the tehillim as well as submit their names for tefillah for free!

• Send us an email at tubav@yadlachim.org and we will send you updates as well as info to pass along to others.

Yad L’Achim has set up an informative website specifically for this momentous occasion entitled WWW.TUBAVTOGETHER.COM where people can sign up to receive updates and submit names for tefillah in Amuka if they wish (FOR FREE)! You can also make an optional donation to assist Yad L’Achim in rescuing Jewish women and children trapped in Arab villages, the great mitzvah of Pidyon Shvuyim.

EMPATHY.

Nosei B’ol Im Chaveiro

WHY SHOULD I CARE?

10

Live Life Better – Tisha B’Av 5778

No book on raising children leaves it out. No book on marriage bypasses it. Up there with “validation,” empathy seems to be high on the list of qualities a human being must develop if he or she wants to relate successfully to other human beings.

However, the quality of empathy has roots that reach far deeper than the SelfImprovement shelf of the book store. It reaches all the way back to the Torah, not with one all-encompassing commandment of “You shall empathize with your brother,” but rather, with a wide range of mitzvos which, one by one, train us in the fine art of bringing others’ needs and feelings into our own heart.

As Rabbi Jonathan Rietti observes, the Torah illustrates important aspects of empathy with the mitzvah of the arei miklat – cities of refuge established to harbor people who unintentionally take someone’s life. Six cities were designated throughout the land, and every crossroads of every highway had a sign that pointed the way to the nearest one.

“The Torah cares,” says Rabbi Rietti. “It looks into the heart of someone who has not had the merit to protect him from accidentally taking another life. The person is in a panic. He thinks, ‘I can’t believe I killed someone! What am I going to do?’ The Torah has already said to prepare every crossroad so that despite his confusion, he will know where to go.”

Though such a situation is rare, the Torah lays out some basics of the way in which Hashem wants the Jewish people to interact with each other. Most prominently, it teaches that empathy isn’t reserved only for those whom people hold in high regard. The thought that “his mess is of his own making” often derails empathy, but in the case of the arei miklat, Hashem shows empathy even for a person who is so lacking in merit that he becomes the agent of another person’s ultimate misfortune.

In other words, even though empathy is defined as “identifying with another’s pain and suffering (or even joy),” it doesn’t rest on identifying with that person’s way of life or thought patterns. It depends on thinking, “How would I feel if I were him?” rather than “If he were more like me, this wouldn’t be happening to him.”

Rabbi Rietti asserts that there are more than 100 mitzvos in the Torah that act as part of the “empathy training plan.” They include the well-known mitzvos that arise from “V’ahavta l’rei’acha kamocha” – Love your neighbor as yourself – such as visiting the sick, escorting the dead, helping to marry off young couples and giving tzedakah.

In addition, they include less obvious mitzvos such as “V’halachta b’drachav” – emulating Hashem’s ways; “Lo sisna es achicha b’lvavecha – Do not hate your brother in your heart; “Lo samod al dam rei’echa” – Do not stand (idly) by the blood of your neighbor”; Kibbud av va’eim” – honoring parents (especially in their old age); and special sensitivity to orphans and widows, which the Chofetz Chaim says includes anyone who is particularly vulnerable and unprotected in life.

Even the mitzvah of returning a lost item is an exercise in empathy, Rabbi Rietti says. A person who sees an abandoned item sitting on the floor may not just step over it or kick it aside. He has to look at it and think, “Someone is going to be looking for this.” For one moment, he must reckon with what he feels like when he’s missing an item – searching his pockets, checking under seat cushions, twisting himself in half to check under the seats of the car, asking everyone “Have you seen my….”

Significantly, returning a lost object builds empathy even for an unidentified “someone,” since a person may not know right away to whom the item belongs.

The mitzvah teaches us to feel for a fellow Jew, no matter who he is. There is no one outside the orbit of our empathy.

ike everything else in self-improvement, Shmiras Haloshon is a life-long work in progress. It takes persistence. When people stop learning they start sliding, but when they keep learning the same halachos again and again, they can start tuning out. They might even give up, feeling that “If I haven’t gotten a grip on this by now, it’s never going to happen.”

For all those reasons and more, Master Your Words, Master Your Life breathes new life into this all-important endeavor. It’s a Shmiras Haloshon sefer like its popular and highly-acclaimed

predecessors, but it adds several new dimensions to the learning that help it to sink in and stick.

The first feature a reader will notice is the dynamic format.

Each day’s learning is divided into several brief, straight-to-thepoint segments that come together as a multi-faceted lesson to carry away. An inspiring quote wraps up the daily learning.

Secondly, like no Shmiras Haloshon sefer before it, Master Your Words takes a penetrating look into the character traits, perspectives and psychology that can fuel loshon hora or continued on page 79

Esti was a vivacious seminary girl with strong opinions, unwavering self-esteem, and a ton of friends. Esti was, in fact, a magnet for friends.

To be near her was to bask in the glow of her selfassurance, her “with-it-ness,” and her popularity.

She was great. She wasn’t overly generous, but let’s face it: how many of us truly are? She was like most of us in that regard – okay, with a serious need for improvement. Not the end of the world.

Then there was Ruchi. We all know quite a few Ruchis. Ruchi was a year younger than Esti. She was sweet and genuinely generous and…well…“a little off.” You know, like someone wearing a tichel with the center ornament just off to the side. Ruchi spoke with a slight lisp and often suspected she was being made fun of (which, unfortunately, was sometimes true). She would then get all red in the face and stammer.

Ruchi had one hero she admired above everyone else. Yes, our Esti.

Now that put Esti in an awkward position. She was just a girl growing up, having a reasonably good time, with little patience for those on the sidelines.

Unfortunately, Ruchi’s idiosyncrasies rubbed Esty the wrong way. Her “nebbiness” irritated Esty like the sound of a fingernail scratching on a blackboard.

She couldn’t help it. She was genuinely repelled by the adoring Ruchi and just wished her gone.

Around Esti, Ruchi simply glowed. She would greet her idol with a smile that revealed braces, which weren’t always very clean. Esti would groan inwardly. Most times Esti was actually pretty good at concealing her aversion and Ruchi was so infatuated she didn’t notice a thing. Esti was HER FRIEND! Wow! Ruchi would offer Esti to get together. She invited her to her birthday parties and tried to expand their “friendship,” continued on page 80

strengthen a person’s resistance to it. The chapters are organized according to this focus, with each day offering a true story or thought-provoking insight that illustrates the point. Readers have especially praised the features called “Looking Within” and “Building Within,” which offer ideas of how to integrate the insight into everyday life.

The goal of this middos-oriented section is to help readers look at Shmiras Haloshon in a more holistic way. The mitzvah does not revolve only around what a person says, but also around what makes him say it. This depends on how a person judges other people, how he feels about himself, what traits he needs to develop further and what traits he needs to refine.

When well-meaning people keep falling into the trap of loshon hora, it is not usually because they don’t know what they are allowed to say. Rather, it’s because for some reason their internal world keeps churning out thoughts that find expression as loshon hora. Master Your Words helps readers assess and revise those thoughts to stop loshon hora at its inception.

The halachos are also presented in a novel, engaging way, with each halachah emerging from a life-like dilemma. In this way, readers more readily recognize the Shmiras Haloshon issues that emerge amid the daily ins and outs of office politics, neighbors’ relations, friendships and family interactions. The halachic principle for each day is then encapsulated in an easyto-remember motto for future reference.

Readers are enthusiastically endorsing this new entry into the Shmiras Haloshon learning library. Not only is it revitalizing the efforts of long-time learners, but it is also catching the interest of those who never felt drawn to a daily learning program in Shmiras Haloshon.

It has particularly become popular for group learning or partners learning by phone. One far-flung family that

Group Effort MAKE IT A

Start Your Own Teleconference

“...EVERYONE HAS A BUSY LIFE, BUT THIS IS SOMETHING WE ALL LOOK FORWARD TO AND WE CAN ALL MANAGE TO FIT IN.” does a nightly teleconference with the book (see Sidebar for Teleconference details) has found it to be the first book that hasn’t been abandoned somewhere in the middle.

“It never takes more than 4 minutes to do a lesson,” says the family’s teleconference organizer. “We start at 10:55 p.m. and we are finished before 11. Everyone has a busy life, but this is something we all look forward to and we can all manage to fit in.”

Another reader praises the concise, lively writing style that makes the halachic dilemmas and middos-oriented segments enjoyable to read. “It’s a serious topic but it’s presented in a light, friendly style,” he says. “My family actually looks forward to it.”

Master Your Words, Master Your Life speaks to a generation of readers who want practical, to-the-point learning that they can immediately apply to their lives. It guides them toward building themselves into the people they want to be – people who see the good, speak the good, and live a good, happy, positive life.

With its quick, vividly-written, easy-to-read format, Master Your Words, Master Your Life is becoming a favorite for group learning by teleconference. Families groups, classmates, friends and neighborhood groups are all finding in this book a perfect tool to stay engaged, motivated and learning.

Shmiras Haloshon success depends on consistent daily learning, and consistency depends on motivation. Teleconference groups use the power of the group effort to keep everyone motivated; the minimal time investment Master Your Words requires makes the effort doable by just about anyone.

As one family teleconference member reports, “We’ve tried to organize something like this many times before, but this is the first time we’ve succeeded. Everyone loves the book and it never takes more than 4 minutes to learn the ‘day’.”

You can set up your own teleconference with friends, relatives or any other group.

It’s especially powerful as a zechus for someone in need of a refuah sheleimah, shidduch, job, or any other pressing need.

The Chofetz Chaim Heritage Foundation will guide you through the simple set-up procedures. Just give us a call at 845-352-3505 ext. 116 and soon, you and your group can be growing together in Shmiras Haloshon slowly and steadily every day.

and took all of Esti’s refusals as the price she had to pay to have a superstar like Esti as a friend.

But one day Ruchi decided to force the issue. It was a bad move, with terrible timing. Even popular girls have bad days and problems. Oblivious as always, Ruchi found Esti and asked why it was always she who did the inviting while Esty turned her down and never reciprocated. “Friends don’t treat friends that way.”

Esty exploded. “Friends???” she exclaimed. “We’re FRIENDS??

You’ve been pestering me FOR YEARS. We’re not friends, we never were friends and we never will be. Every time I see you I want to run away! JUST. LEAVE. ME. ALONE. ALREADY!!!”

Esti turned and stormed away, fuming.

Ruchi stood there, all color drained from her face. She wanted to run, but didn’t trust her legs to carry her. Walking away, Esti couldn’t help but feel some regret because she didn’t really mean to be vicious, but she was secretly relieved, too. Ruchi would leave her alone from now on. She never asked for Ruchi’s admiration, so why was she responsible for not reciprocating the feelings?

"WALKING AWAY, ESTI COULDN’T HELP BUT FEEL SOME REGRET BECAUSE SHE DIDN’T REALLY MEAN TO BE VICIOUS, BUT SHE WAS SECRETLY RELIEVED, TOO." Both girls graduated, and they didn’t see each other again for many years. They both got married. Ruchi married a gentle yeshivah boy who became an accountant, and who cherished his socially-awkward wife like a precious jewel. Over the years they had seven children.

Esti, of course, got married too. Her bashert fit her status as a star, a smart and popular girl. An astute businessman, he did very nicely. They bought a nice house and owned two latestmodel cars. The only thing wrong with this picture was the fact that the beautiful house was empty. All the medical tests showed there was no problem with either of them, but seventeen years after their wedding they were still without children.

Esti looked at her image in the mirror. Her sheitel was expensive and exquisitely cut. She looked as radiant as ever.

Only her maturing hands told the story of the passing years and the rapidly-closing window of opportunity.

Truth be told, her life was empty. She had a husband who 80

Live Life Better – Tisha B’Av 5778

loved her, yes, but the strain was hard on him as well. Time was encroaching; they were nearing their forties. Esti realized they needed a miracle.

Of course she and her husband reached out to Gedolei Yisrael for blessings and advice. Each one asked them if ever in the past they hurt someone deeply and never made amends. When the third Gadol asked, a light bulb finally went on in Esti’s mind.

Esti stood on Ruchi’s doorstep and cried like she had never cried before – and the more she cried, the worse she felt. She was sorry, of course, but she was apologizing mostly because she needed a yeshuah.

And wouldn’t you know it, Ruchi was the same Ruchi; still “slightly off,” still as kind and generous as ever. She took one look at Esti and understood everything – both the said and the unsaid. “Of course I forgive you.” She hugged Esti and consoled her, which made Esti feel even worse.

Looking into Ruchi’s kind, wise eyes Esti suddenly realized how lucky she would have been to have her as a friend all along.

She cried harder in her remorse. “I’m so stupid” she wept. “I was stupid when I was young and I’m still as stupid as ever. Stupid… stupid…stupid…”

“No, you’re not,” Ruchi said.

“Yes, I am. You don’t know what’s in my heart.”

Ruchi smiled, “No, but I can venture a pretty good guess.

You’re not stupid at all, you’re just normal. You were always popular and successful, and that’s a very hard nisayon. Like being rich, it’s a honey-trap. I forgive you with all my heart.

Don’t worry.”

Esti just held on to her, the tears streaming down. “Can I be your frend?” Esti whispered.

“Of course,” Ruchi said simply, as she started crying too. “Oh, how many years I’ve waited to hear you say that…”

About ten months later Esti gave birth to a girl.

This is a true story. “I’m so lucky,” Esti says when she recounts it. “Hashem had mercy on me and gave me a second chance. Of course I can’t roll back the lost years…

So sit back in a quiet room, alone, and reflect. When you hurt someone, the two of you are tied to one another with invisible chains – until you make amends and set both of you free.

Just do it.

Introducing the Shmiras Haloshon Family Teleconference

Parents, children, and grandparents. What better way to join together and strengthen the bonds of family than to learn together?

And what better way to stay in harmony than by learning the laws of Shmiras Haloshon?

Families spread out all across the world are using teleconferences to get together – once a week or even once a day – for a five-minute Shmiras Haloshon lesson.

They’re reporting a profound impact as family members strengthen their ties and identify themselves with this mitzvah. Doing it as a zechus for a refuah or yeshuah provides extra motivation.

And now, you can do a teleconference the fool-proof way with an automatic call to me mber of your group!

With this super-convenient technology pioneered by Agudath Israel, Chofetz Chaim Heritage Foundation can set up your group so that each member receives a call direct to his or her phone at the appointed time. No one has to be the one to remember!

For now, limited time-slots are available for this service on a firstcome first-served basis (at a minimal charge to cover costs).

Bring brocha to your family with two overflowing wellsprings of brocha – achdus and Shmiras Haloshon. Email conference@powerofspeech.org

to set up your family teleconference group and watch great things happen!

continued from page 10

THE EMOTIONAL CONNECTION Clearly, the Torah wants us to not only physically help each other, but also to emotionally connect to those who need our help. The body language and facial expressions a person projects in these interactions determine whether his empathy will go all the way to its ultimate, deeper purpose.

That purpose, says Rabbi Rietti, is to uplift all of mankind. Sources in Kabbalah teach that since every human being originated in Adam haRishon, every neshamah branches out from that one root. Therefore, the care one person lavishes upon another affects every soul in existence. The reassuring smile, genuine eye contact, patience and warmth a person expresses as he listens to another’s troubles are nourishment that helps the entire world to thrive.

If a person doesn’t feel warmth and understanding in his heart, says Rabbi Rietti, “then follow the advice of the Mesillas Yesharim and ‘fake it till you make it.’ Because you’re not really faking it. You’re training yourself in the reality that your neshamah is craving, a connection to the other person’s neshamah.”

JUDGMENT CONTROL If empathy were a flower, the growing instructions would read “plant in soil that contains no judgment,” because judgment kills empathy. Nevertheless, judgment is the default mode for most people. In many cases, it’s essential to making choices in life. Therefore, the Torah guides us on how to contain and channel our natural tendency to judge.

First it warns, “Do not judge on your own.” No one can see a situation with complete objectivity; every person is blinded by his own preconceptions. Therefore the Torah warns that whatever a person’s “common sense” tells him is bound to be skewed to some degree.

If the judgment takes form in his mind anyway, his next step is to follow the dictum “Do not judge your friend until you stand in his place.” That exercise, if done honestly, shakes the foundation of the judgment the person has made. He realizes that he cannot stand in the other person’s place. Unless a person grows up in the same home, has the same physical and mental traits, attends the same schools, has the same friends and lives in the same community as another person, he cannot experience life in the same way.

If even that dictum doesn’t dislodge the judgment that has formed in the person’s mind, then he reaches the Torah’s final barrier against disparaging others: “Hevei dan… l’chaf zechus”— judge to the side of merit. Using these words as a guide, he can at least consider possible ways in which his friend’s mistakes might be justified.

ACCOMPLISHING SOMETHING For many people, setting aside judgment and “just listening” seem to be uselessly passive ways of dealing with others’ difficulties. They want to give advice or take action. After all, what’s the use of talking about a problem when the problem can be fixed? They cannot help but tell the person whom to call, what to read and where to go to alleviate the troubles.

Empathy, however, is not really a passive response; it is a highly effective way to alleviate another person’s pain. Shlomo Hamelech teaches (Mishlei: 27:19) “Kamayim hapanim la panim, ken lev ha’adam l’adam” – As water reflects the face, so does the heart of man. In other words, when one person smiles at another and shows through his expression that “your troubles matter to me,” the other person’s heart responds in kind. He realizes that he’s not alone in his troubles. He is uplifted, even if his problem hasn’t changed one iota.

When one Jew gives another Jew empathy, he is giving him a second set of hands to help carry the burden. The one who is struggling can find some respite in his struggle.

Perhaps he can then find the mental energy to think of solutions, make changes and seek practical help. The “passive” tool of empathy can open the way to real solutions.

It provides a This-Worldly reminder of the all-powerful truth that sustains each and every person in his times of trouble: Hashem Himself is with us in our pain.

GETTING TO EMPATHY Most people understand the need to offer empathy to their spouses, children, friends – anyone who feels the need to share their challenges. Most people truly want to do a good job of providing the comfort of letting someone feel he is being heard and understood.

Nevertheless, people often find themselves doing something else instead: tuning out, offering advice, changing the subject.

Mrs. Yael Kaisman offers some useful insights into why people fail and how they can succeed in the soul-sustaining art of empathetic listening: Sometimes we are self-absorbed. Our friend is talking about his challenge when we have our own troubles that we would like to unload. Therefore we tune him out and try to shift the focus of the conversation.

We make a judgment about the person’s situation. To us, it doesn’t seem to be such a large problem.

We see the person’s pain as a lack of proper hashkafah. Instead of listening, we offer a mini-shiur in emunah or some other wisdom that we are certain will instantly change the person’s perspective.

We try to make an end-run around the problem by putting a silver lining on it.

“You don’t get along with your mother-inlaw? Well, at least she buys your kids nice clothes.”

We want to find the perfect words to solve the problem. We want to be the hero whose advice the other person follows to triumph over the challenge.

In the case of serious problems, we are uncomfortable with the reminder of our own vulnerability. The strategy of Gedolim, who hear the heart-breaking problems of thousands of Jews, is to feel the other person’s pain but learn how to put it in its own compartment so that they can still live a joyful life.

The key to overcoming all these empathy obstacles, says Mrs. Kaisman, is “to get yourself out of the way and just be with the other person.” When we put our effort into identifying the other person’s emotions and feeling it with him, that very action arouses Heavenly mercy.
