What to Take with Me into Yom Kippur
Episode 18
Sunday, 28 September, 2025
Join Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David as we step from the awe of Rosh Hashanah into the יום של אמת of Yom Kippur—where the day itself reveals who we’ve been all along. With the Shem MiShmuel and a luminous teaching from the Lubavitcher Rebbe, we learn that on Yom Kippur the מידת האמת shines, the עצם הנשמה is uncovered, and עיצומו של יום מכפר—the core of the day atones. From that place, even על חטא turns future-facing: “That was last year; this year you won’t recognize me.” And with the Radomsker Rebbe’s reading of the Mishnah, we enter the Kodesh HaKodashim carrying one short tefillah of the Kohen Gadol: לא להבהית את ישראל—Hashem, don’t let Your children live in fear.Practical avodah to take into Yom Kippur: • Learn 10 quiet minutes before Kol Nidrei on מידת האמת—so the simchah of truth feels familiar, not foreign. • Reframe על חטא: name one pattern from last year, then write its new, honest opposite for this year. • Two moments of “eye contact” with Hashem (no words): once after Ashamnu, once before Ne’ilah—let the neshama speak. • Whisper the Kohen Gadol’s line during Ne’ilah: לא להבהית את ישראל—and include tefillah for our soldiers and the return of all captives. • Leave with one small kabbalah of emet—a truthful act you can keep the morning after.May the Ribbono Shel Olam let us meet our truest self this Yom Kippur—חבוקה ודבוקה בך—and write us all into a year where truth dissolves fear, and the light of atonement becomes everyday life.For more Shiurim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join the WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t
