Mussar
This series of classes on Mussar offers a selection of lectures based on the classical ethical works, Chovot HaLevavot by Rabbenu Bachya ibn Pekuda, Tomer Devora by Rabbi Moshe Cordevoro, Mesilat Yesharim by Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzato, and Michtav M'Eliyahu by Rabbi Eliyahu E. Dessler. Chovot HaLevavot discusses Man’s purpose in the world and his obligations to G-d in belief, behavior, and character. Tomer Devora describes how Man should adapt and adopt G-d’s Thirteen Attributes of Mercy, transforming himself from a mere human to a G-dly individual. Mesilat Yesharim follows a step by step plan of ascension to spiritual perfection, based on a Gemara which lists 15 steps to attain Divine inspiration. Rabbi Yitzchak Cohen explicates these fundamental works and looks at key themes found throughout the books and ways in which they can be applied to daily living. Classes on human interaction include Honorable Mentchen, Rav Pam's lessons on character, and our sages guidance based on Avot D'Rav Nosson.
