About this listen

 In this enlightening discussion, we delve into the second blessing of the Bakasha section of the Amida prayer, focusing on the powerful phrase Hashivenu Avinu Letoratecha, which means "return us, our father, to your Torah." This blessing builds upon our earlier plea for wisdom, emphasizing the importance of returning to our true selves and aligning with God’s teachings. We explore the rich concept of Teshuvah, often translated as "repentance," revealing it as a journey of self-discovery rather than mere atonement. This transformative process is not limited to Yom Kippur; instead, it invites daily reflection and growth. By embracing Teshuvah, we can turn past misdeeds into opportunities for personal development, guiding our prayers to God from a place of authenticity and clarity. Join us as we explore how to realign our priorities and cultivate a deeper connection with our souls and the Divine.
