## Resource

What happens when the well of connection dries up? Join Rav Shlomo Katz and the Chevra of Shirat David as they explore the mysterious link between Miriam HaNeviah and the life-giving waters that sustained Am Yisrael in the desert. Why did the water cease with her passing? What does it mean to “taste infinity” in a mitzvah, a relationship, or even a single word of Torah? From perfectionism in spirituality to the infinite power of a single drop of water, this shiur travels from Moshe’s grief to Miriam’s unique essence of chibur —connection. Through Chassidic stories, deep Torah from the Ba’er Miriam, and insights into emotional resilience, we are reminded that it’s not how “perfectly” we live, but how connected we remain—especially through our mistakes. Topics include: The danger of spiritual perfectionism How a mitzvah touches infinity Why the Jewish soul is rooted in the mother The ongoing journey of Miriam’s well What it means to be holy… but not connected A must-listen for anyone longing for depth, gentleness, and reconnection.
