We are crying because the video points out how we are in the darkest moment of galus and the Rebbe is not physically with us to guide us through it. We need to work through this alone like orphans.

Please stop trying to stifle our emotions. Crying and bitterness can be just as healthy and productive as laughter and happiness!

If you read through all the comments they say one thing “i cried and cried. We are crying because we miss the Rebbe. Lets Rejoice the best days at last are in the future not in the past! Stop living with the past and start living with the future, lest be besimcha and live with moshiach and we will have the Rebbe take us out of golus very soon!

What an amazing organization. to sum it up you included everyone in this video. it dose not matter how you connect with the Rebbe, davening downstairs, in the Rebbes room, going to the ohel, writing and putting the letter in a sefer of the Rebbe. Find what works for you and connect!

To me this was a very powerful message. There is so much that connects us and so little that divides us. Lets unite and bring Moshiach NOW!

wow, beauiful!

Choni Zucker wow!
February 1, 2015 10:49 am

What an amazing voice Choni! And the choir adds so much too. Yossi Cohen, thanks for doing a beautiful job with the music. I love when he plays at chasunes. Its leibedik but with a chasidishe taam. Unfortunately today its hard to find that combination.

February 1, 2015 9:03 am

On a beautiful palace on a mountain so high Shamil rules his kingdom with pride His enemies defeated fight after fight His advantage is claerly his height. To a false call for peace he agrees to come down Enslaved and imprisoned his pain knows no bounds. Yet his spirit is high for he knows he’ll ascend And be with his nation again. Though it seems so unreal, he is confident and sure He’ll rise more than ever before. Standing as one with her Father Above Serving with fear and with love. Her emotions and knowledge were G-dly and pure The… Read more »

Thank you!

Thank you Rabbi Sternberg for sharing of your talents and time to inspire so many of us.
Thank you for imparting the story of Shamil and its significance as the Rebbe taught it as as well as a powerful additional message for today.
In our house we printed the words out before Shabbos and sung it throughout the day.
Yasher Koach!

I watched the video and cried and cried and cried. I cried for my children “lomo nigora” why should they knot have what we had. I cried for my self, ad mossai hashem it’s taking so long. Rebbe we have such strong faith in you. Please enough is enough. We want moshiach now.

You have changed our lives. I cant forget how seven short years ago my kids thought tzivos hashem was a news letter with yom tov missions 6 times a year. You understood that children needed more and have ever since made such great investment into our children. Your investments have changed our children’s lives. They have grown up to become proud generals in hashem’s army. And they have worked really hard to get their, with daily missions that really challenge them to move forward. Each year tzivos hashem gets better and better and keeps stimulating the children together with us… Read more »

Keep making these beautiful songs that help our children feel connected to the Rebbe

1. The song did not say anything about these things being bad. 2. What tge song did say is that they are distractions for the neshama. YES the song is talking about the neshoma. Who when she was on high was in love and awe of hashem. ALL SHE WANTS IS TO BE CLOSE TO HASHEM yet she comes down on earth and the body wants other things. And yes even if these other things are not bad, for example simply eating healthy food and sleeping at night these things weaken the neshomas feeling of ahava and yira to hashem.… Read more »

The second paragraph is talking about the neshoma. Who when she was on high was in love and awe of hashem. ALL IT WANTS IS TO BE CLOSE TO HASHEM yet it comes down on earth and the body wants other things. And it’s crying because the NESHOMA only wants to do things that will mske it close to hashem. It does not say it’s bad it says that’s not what the neshoma wants.

January 31, 2015 7:44 pm

the song did not say anything about these things being bad. All it said was there are distractions for the neshama. When we use these distractions for good things, like tzivos hashem does, or others, it’s simply to bring them to a higher level. Make ruchnius out of gashmius. Unfortunately thats the level our children are at but the ultimate goal it to bring them to a higher level. מתוך שלא לשמה, בא לשמה. Thank u again for a fantastic video. It spoke to every age level and every style person. Its so easy to find negative. Focus on the… Read more »

True but as parents and teachers are job is to educate

Are they?
January 31, 2015 7:37 pm

To me it seems that they are protrayed as “distractions”. “Countless distractions are drowning the soul”.

I would also like to thank alk those who made this video. The comments talk for themselves. HOWEVER, I would like to point out something. In the video ice cream and roller skating are portrait as something of the yetzer hara- which is true- but we use this things as incentives for the students. Tzivos hashem themselves used ice skating as a reward in the chanukah rally. In fact the footage of the trips are tzivos hashem trips. Kids look at things in a very black and white way. Its confusing for them if we say that ice cream and… Read more »

Old Russian melody ?
You can’t be serious.

A Niggun the Rebbe Personally taught and Farbrengened about is not an ” old Russian Melody”.
