Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • Not every place and not every situation is right for us. Sometimes, places and cultures make too many demands on us morally and spiritually. Others, too few. We need to live in an environment--physical, social, political, moral, esthetic and religious--that supports our development, that pushes us just enough to bring us to become better, but not so much that we fail, or are discouraged, worn out and then give up. We need to be in places that  fit  "who we are"--our character, and capabilities as well as our limits.
  • Reflections on Genesis 26:2-6

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • People we care about die. How do we say goodbye to those we love, to the family, friends and teachers  with whom we have spent an important part of our lives? As a start, we gratefully appreciate the moral and spiritual quality of their lives . And how they helped makes us who we are. We do this both in our own minds and by sharing stories about them with others. Still,  we know that in order to go on with our own lives, we have to put away what remains of their physical  presence . We do so and then we can grieve.   But, when possible, , we put it where we can find it and perhaps, when we visit it there, reconnect again with them on a deeper level. 
  • Reflections on Genesis 23.

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb
  • Each life is distinctive, having its own pattern and often defined by a set of major events and experiences. The most satisfying and engaging  opportunities and tasks of our existence continually prod us to  make and remake our way of  living. To say the least, this can be very taxing. Are we allowed to "take a brief vacation" ?  What would it cost us to just coast for a bit? What would it cost those we meet, those we work with, those we love and care for?

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb
  • Even radical changes in our lives may still leave places and people as a basis to start anew. Something of the past survives, enabling us to begin again. We lost the job and the connections, but our skills and knowledge base remain. Our relationship dissolves in anger, frustration and regret but what we learned through it is not gone. Our body deteriorates physically but our resilience and coping ability are there to carry us through. And, as we emerge from a life "catastrophe", we find new footing and get under way  again.

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb
  • Each generation inherits the world from the generation before it. As individuals too, we inherit the responsibilities of those who came before us. Sometimes, there is even a moment in which we feel appointed to these tasks. And, at those moments, as we sense those before us passing away, we seek the inspiration that continuing the "mission" requires. 
  • We want to be inspired.This may not happen as explicitly as we might like, but somehow the previous generation may find a way to encourage us. Knowing that my father was dying, I made what both of us knew was my last visit. Talking about his imminent death, my father said " I am at peace with it. I have had an interesting life.". Then he paused, looked me in the eye and said " Come to think of it, you have an interesting life too. "
  • Reflections on Deuteronomy 31:14 and Rashi's commentary on it

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • On the Jewish New Year,  Jews sound the shofar, a ram's horn.  Its blasting wordless sound is meant to  wake us up. Its sound without words is both empty and also filled with unarticulated possibilities.  As we hear the shofar, we are invited to imagine a world where both the possibilities of the moment of creation and the promises of history find their fulfillment and expression in a redemptive, messianic, vision. 
  • We personally can also envision what our  own world might become. We imagine leaving behind the limits of our worst habits, escaping the uninspired repeated patterns of our lives that make us feel safe but sometimes bore us half to death.  The shofar's blast can awaken within us the best, most creative and satisfying possibilities of our own lives. It can make them  seem real again. We see what we—our relationships and our work—can become.

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb
  • We try hard not to be judgmental, but,  like it or not , we are always judging actions, situations and people. We just can't avoid it. Judging fairly isn't easy.  High position, impressive intellect, having gone to the right schools, being wealthy, even good looks sometimes sorely tempt us to judge favorably even when the evidence says otherwise. And vice versa. We can be nudged toward an unfavorable judgment of people who seem to be shleppers, not too bright, don't seem "cool" ,etc.  when this is not really justified. The hard question is: How exactly do we avoid making wrong judgments of actions, situations and people?   
  • Reflections on Deuteronomy 16:18ff

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • Through science and our own experience, we understand much of our daily world. But we don't have certainty or even clarity about many of our most important life questions---relationships,  jobs and career, religion and spirituality. The certainty that comes with moments of  Divine revelation is just not a part of today's world.  Maybe we should be wary of those who seem to claim an almost prophetic personal  certainty about what is going to happen and how we should be living our lives. Even when we are navigating by faith, and can not be entirely sure how to go forward, we can, at least, avoid false prophets.

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • The wisdom we seek is the wisdom that teaches us how to live the good life. We turn to the sources of knowledge--sacred texts, reason, experience-- to suggest possibilities and then mark out which we should do and which we must avoid. We do not wait for life problems to occur before we think carefully about how to  live well.  Since acting on our understanding  confirms the value of our thoughtful search for the good life, we don't miss a chance to do something worthwhile even before it can be developed fully.      
  • Reflections on Deuteronomy 4: 41 and the commentary of  Naftali Zvi Yehuda Berlin

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • Learning to ask the right questions is so important in life. It sometimes requires as much courage as it does curiosity. Our general orientation works most of the time to get us around in life. But there are always missing pieces. If we choose, we can ignore them and we'll probably be alright, But if we want a fuller life we have to risk asking about the gaps in our knowledge but also accept that there are some things we will never know.

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • A reminder about a widely accepted truth: Is seeking knowledge always a good thing?  Many of us would say that this depends on why we seek it.  Investigation, experimentation, theory construction and text interpretation always take place within the context of our interests, purposes and goals.  In addition, in most situations, knowledge is power. But why  we want power makes all the difference in evaluating our search for knowledge. And can we always be sure of our motivations in seeking knowledge and power? All in all, we can't stop trying to understand our world and act effectively in it, but we need to be very very circumspect about our motivations.

Dear friends,

We are proud to join together with our rabbinic colleagues in urging you to vote in the upcoming primaries on June 22, 2021. 

The importance of ensuring strong government leadership in New York City for the next four years cannot be overstated, especially in light of the very difficult period the city has endured since the pandemic struck. We cannot stand on the sidelines. Every vote counts, and our community can make a difference.

As Rabbis we are apolitical, and it’s not our place to endorse a specific candidate. But it is our responsibility to care for our community. And this election could have an enormous impact on our community, our synagogues, and our schools. Voting is a civic responsibility and opportunity, and we urge you to vote in this election. 

This year we are tasked to rank our choices. Selecting more than one candidate will enable you to have your vote weigh in more than if you had voted for a single candidate. Click here to learn about ranked voting.

Starting this weekend, you can vote early, and early voting runs from June 12th – 20th. Click here to find your early voting site. If you will be away on June 22nd, click here to get your vote-by-mail ballot.

Sincerely,

  • Aviad Bodner, Congregation Ramat Orah
  • Naftali Citron, The Carlebach Shul
  • Roy Feldman, Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun

Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

  • How much control over our lives and our world do we need? If we reduce the size and scope of our world, we can gain control over much of it. Expanding our life and our world, while more exciting and satisfying, usually means accepting that we have to surrender control over parts, often important parts, of our reality-- too much to watch, too far to see, too filled with possibilities to always run according to plan. And where does human vulnerability fit into our search for control? Or, death, over which we ultimately have no control? Do our rituals that address vulnerability and death help us to control them or to face them? At our best, I believe, despite the limits on our ability to control our world, we seek the expanding fullness of life.
