Serenity - Developing Inner Calm in a Chaotic World | Bilvavi Series

Serenity of the soul is essential for the development of every person’s inner being. In the yeshiva of the holy Saba of Kelm (one of the early leaders of the Mussar movement), tranquility of the soul was one of the core foundations and perhaps the greatest principle upon which all human effort was built.

In our generation, the entire lifestyle is the opposite of tranquility. The technological innovations that emerge daily are highly disruptive to the serenity of the soul. Although everything has its pros and cons, from the perspective of the soul’s tranquility, these innovations, for the most part, lead significantly to restlessness.

Our forefathers lived lives of solitude spending their time in the tents of Shem & Eber distanced from the materialistic world’s noise. Through this, they attained soul serenity and built their inner selves with true dedication.

This sefer, adapted from the Hebrew sefer דע את מנוחתך, aims to bring us closer to the lifestyle of our ancestors. It attempts to portray a way of life characterized by tranquility of both inner peace and outer calm.

Without a doubt, learning the chapters of this sefer can help you lead a calmer lifestyle.
