Dealing With Guilt and Regret 

God forgave me much, I have a whole new relationship of greatfulness.

What a wonderful Rabbi. My whole life was consumed by blaming myself.

I cannot put my gratitude into words about the healing wisdom that you impart throughout your Shiurim. thank you very much

What a wonderful lecture for moving on in life after a bad choice we have made. Thank you Rabii for letting me me access your life time knowledge and wisdom ... As a Muslim person I thank you very much for everything you are doing for the betterment of humanity Rabii 🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏🙏

I have been mired in self loathing over something I did for the last 10 years. I have listened to hundreds of talks on regret and self forgiveness and this is by far the best!!! Everything you said resonated so deeply! Thank you for sharing your wisdom. 💕

Thank you Rabbi Friedmann for putting things back in order in our heads & may God bless you !!

Please pray for me, for my heart weeks with sorrow, I am dealing with physical illness (Pancolitis) depression, painkillers and sugar addiction, heart ache, lonliness and I grief tremendously. 🙏❤️🙏 Need a miracle Chaya Scarlett

Excellent teaching Rabbi. May you be blessed

G-d bless you, Rabbi Friedman. from someone who needed to hear this very much.

All we have is a choice. The success or failure of anything is in God's hand.

Thankyou for your insights and healing words. We hear that God is always with us through thick and thin. I sometimes think that God tests us repeatedly until we fail and when we do …. God evaluates us as unworthy for failing or we are placed in impossible situations that have only one outcome …. Fail. Sometimes I feel God just doesn´t like me.

I really love listening to Rabbi, I have many bad thoughts and hurt feelings but I will not act on feelings, I don’t listen to bad thoughts , I Love GOD. I have a reason for being here and it’s a good reason.

I’ve felt so guilty about hurting my youngest daughter. She doesn’t want to talk to me anymore and that’s consuming me. I love her and miss her greatly. I understand she’s trying to heal on her own and it’s been difficult to come to grips with it. I want to believe God is not angry at me, but it’s so difficult. I grew being disapproved most of my life, I started getting therapy, and working on my own trauma, I have good days and not so-good days. I wish she could give me another chance and how I wish she could forgive me.

Oh, Rabbi, You speak such sense xxx Thank You xxx

Thank you Rabbi. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I appreciate deeply what Rabbi Friedman shares with us. Wisdom is such a valuable and loveable gift. Thankyou Rabbi, you’re a blessing from Hashem in my life. Blessed be the holy name of Hashem forever.

Thank you Rabbi Manis Friedman

Thank you for this teaching (conscience).

I enjoy seeing the direct attention that is calming ...

Spectacular. Eye opening. Thank you very much.

Heals my heart… i will cherish him and my life

Thank you rabbi for your teachings.

Je remercie Rabbi Friedman pour la somme de sagesse qu'il partage avec nous les êtres égarés par tant de problèmes quotidiens. J'ai presque son age (70 ans) et je dois confesser que pendant toute mon existence (enfant, étudiant, ingénieur, enseignant et inspecteur), j'ai eu du mal à pardonner les mauvais comportements à mon encontre, surtout lorsqu'ils sont gratuits et sans raisons. Ma réaction était toujours couper les liens avec la personne que j'ai jugé fautive, même s'il exprime ses regrets. Cette vidéo m'exhorte à changer de comportement et, rien que pour cela, je vous dois des remerciements.

such a good way to see things

Thank you

Thanks you

Shalom Aleichem!! Does Rabbi Manis, or rather Rhabboní Manis, realize how positively great the impact he has on those who listen? He is frothing with overflowing wisdom that more people NEED to hear!

Thanks

That is powerful and brings great healing. Many will be blessed. Thank you.

Am changing and its for ever gonna be good

Another wonderful message. Thank you Rabbi

Gratitude

Thanks Rabbi, amazing analysis of temptation and revealing Greatness of G-d in creating me

Thank you! 🦋🌻🐞🌼🐝🌹

This lecture is top of the tops!!!🌞🙌

Even lashon Hara is extremely prevalent in most of the troubles of the world. More people are physically and emotionally hurt by words than any other form. To known that one's own physical body can be damaged by words is a giant wake up call for the old saying think before you speak

Great shuir Rabbi friedman , if we didnt have struggle with yetzer tov and yetzer hara , without a struggle we wouldnt know the difference of good or other , so tanya meets that struggle and expects a struggle , except for very few whom we dont know in our arena Thanks , B/h , be well

Rabbi is a healer

Thank you Rabbi. U are such a blessing to all of us. Love from Jakarta, Indonesia

Thank you for your wise thought robbi! It's really reviveing my soul.

I wanna have a perfect body; I want a perfect soul; I wanna be loved; I wanna be missed when I'm not there.

💯% Excellent

Good session

20:55 PERFECT.

Rabbi you’re so cool 😎

Profound words of great wisdom !

Your words are blessed & inspired by Hashem. Your words are truth. You always help me, thank you!

I wish i had found you mr rabbi so many years earlier! It must be the normal for lost people such as myself to feel an obligation to convert or to become Jewish? Idk y but i feel that

13:58 A good person quote.

שבת שלום לכלכם ולכולם

But I will never feel guilt because I am not : I love your videos a lot

How do I deal with a sin that permanently altered my body?

❤❤

😢❤

How does one strengthen good judgment?

one is not a back person because they made a bad chose.....each choice does always hurt others or was i meant to hurt

There's much to say about whether it's how the entire world has learned up til now. As the main population it is other views that are the popular explained problem.we will see

What happens when you are the one giving the forgiveness and the other does not change even though they recognize and admit the sin, but says they are unable to change and has fear of losing what they charish?

How can I forgive myself ?

What if its not really forgivable?

If someone does something and ask for forgiveness and then they do it again and again all your life how do you forgive that. ?

May i ask, how do i know that God forgive me?

What other message was simultaneous about the instance? About 20 yrs misery..? Some things add to the plight at a child's age. It's not acting all of evil..its not seeing safety for others. She should know what she heard to respond.

A ask forgiveness from B, does B have to trust A? A ask forgiveness multiple times over a decade on different sins against B. So, B stopped the friendship and forgiven A. Does forgiveness and trust have to always be together as in a Christian ideology. Trust is given but not in continued sin against B, only forgiveness given. How would B discern A's constant asking forgiveness if B didn't discern and use wisdom to continue or not continue friendship? A not Jewish but B is. But they are related by marriage.

What if your sin becomes a part of you like opiate addiction and you try so many times to get healthy but after 6 rehab stints you still cant overcome it? And you regret it and pray to the Lord everyday that he may help you overcome... What should one do in this situation?

Rabbi Very interesting talk. One comment only: One kills somebody who he doesnt know and then runs away. Then he will decide I dont do it again. Is this all? Can he feel forgiven after this? I think no. First he must suffer with a devastating feeling of guilt for what he did and then when he cannot endure anymore he will open the heart to God and repent and decide of not doing anymore what he did. He may feel better now. But this is not the end as the effect of his action is still there: a man died and his familly is devastated for so long. Who and how is this paid?

What is 'Yate Suhara' (sp.)? He keeps referring to it. TIA! 16:04

What is this word tsedzadek mean?

Does only THE Yaytsa hara speak?

Mr rabbi Friedman I like and respect ur videos . Have a question Is there a real virus ?

What if it wasn't about the Creator commanding and more specifically about providing Moses with Commitments to freedom. You shall know that you have taken the path to God, and you shall know that you have found God, for there will be these signs, these indications, these changes in you: 1. You shall love God with all your heart, all your mind, all your soul. And there shall be no other God set before Me. No longer will you worship human love, or success, money, or power, nor any symbol thereof. You will set aside these things as a child sets aside toys. Not because they are unworthy, but because you have outgrown them. And, you shall know you have taken the path to God because: 2. You shall not use the name of God in vain. Nor will you call upon Me for frivolous things. You will understand the power of words, and of thoughts, and you would not think of invoking the name of God in an unGodly manner. You shall not use My name in vain because you cannot. For My name-the Great “I Am”-is never used in vain (that is, without result), nor can it ever be. And when you have found God, you shall know this. And, I shall give you these other signs as well: 3. You shall remember to keep a day for Me, and you shall call it holy. This, so that you do not long stay in your illusion, but cause yourself to remember who and what you are. And then shall you soon call every day the Sabbath, and every moment holy. 4. You shall honor your mother and your father-and you will know you are the Son of God when you honor your Father/Mother God in all that you say or do or think. And even as you so honor the Mother/Father God, and your father and mother on Earth (for they have given you life), so, too, will you honor everyone. 5. You know you have found God when you observe that you will not murder (that is, willfully kill, without cause). For while you will understand that you cannot end another’s life in any event (all life is eternal), you will not choose to terminate any particular incarnation, nor change any life energy from one form to another, without the most sacred justification. Your new reverence for life will cause you to honor all life forms-including plants, trees and animals-and to impact them only when it is for the highest good. And these other signs will I send you also, that you may know you are on the path: 6. You will not defile the purity of love with dishonesty or deceit, for this is adulterous. I promise you, when you have found God, you shall not commit this adultery. 7. You will not take a thing that is not your own, nor cheat, nor connive, nor harm another to have any thing, for this would be to steal. I promise you, when you have found God, you shall not steal. Nor shall you… 8. Say a thing that is not true, and thus bear false witness. Nor shall you… 9. Covet your neighbor’s spouse, for why would you want your neighbor’s spouse when you know all others are your spouse? 10. Covet your neighbor’s goods, for why would you want your neighbor’s goods when you know that all goods can be yours, and all your goods belong to the world? You will know that you have found the path to God when you see these signs. For I promise that no one who truly seeks God shall any longer do these things. It would be impossible to continue such behaviors. These are your freedoms, not your restrictions. These are my commitments, not my commandments. For God does not order about what God has created-God merely tells God’s children: this is how you will know that you are coming home. Moses asked in earnest-“How may I know? Give me a sign.” Moses asked the same question that you ask now. The same question all people everywhere have asked since time began. My answer is likewise eternal. But it has never been, and never will be, a commandment. For who shall I command? And who shall I punish should My commandments not be kept? There is only Me.

Why do you think a self hurt comes from those not only hurt or somewhat danger ed but maybe influence by a different choice. I don't play forsake one to appease another. Cleansing by a partial death caused this the first time.. God might pick and choose a battle wisely other wise we never learn. How about seeing the first strike as non earth gamed real talk? That's what need come forth..after which everyone has had some influence that does not guard against unsafe idea. I drove my father's tractor as a child...i had no regrets due my attention to detail. It wouldn't start so to surprise him I saw how to and did. No imagination. I was maybe 3. It was simple. After it started ..and ran I saw I didn't know the brake...lol..thabk God I saw them pop a clutch or I would have tumbled down a hill. Yes true..ans funny..but I scared my mom with it. My father was surprised. I learned I needed more info..but girls were as apt for mechanics too. Just sharing as I know worse could be done..am.moral or moral having a base guide on which can lead to worse or who's steering the way to force cleansing? It's odd making sense

19:34 same as you..a piece of H M. Just which piece. Right RABBI?🌑

(ha ha, the subtitles/captions can't undstand Rabbi is saying ''chiva'' and 'not true them'! ha ha

No disrespect intended but how is it you make claims of knowing what God thinks?

18:41 do you know how to get YOUR yaytsa hara to zip it. When You say your 1st morning SHEMA: DECLARE "I CHAIN LUCIFER TO MY LEFT SIDE." At first it's a pain, but as you do your mitzvahs( for ME ,acts of love.) Eventually the 'yaytsa hara' , calms down. Invite it to listen as you PRAY. Be adamant ABOUT ONCE YOU decide to do THE Mitzvah, to do it. Then ask the Y. H ." How'd you like it? BE NICE . Kill it with kindness. When you realize your stumbling, your error, thank THE Yaytsa hara for pointing it out. Recognize he is strengthening you.
