What do your eyes say about you?
The Torah teaches us that the eyes are more than windows to the soul—they’re gateways to influence, both for good and for challenge. In this episode, Rabbi Klapper dives into the often-overlooked subject of Shemiras Einayim. With honesty and warmth, he unpacks the daily struggles faced by every Jewish man and explains how our visual world shapes who we are. Why is this battle so central to a life of kedusha? And what can we do when it feels like we're losing the fight?
Drawing on the Rambam's teachings and poignant life stories, this discussion connects the dots between halachic principles and the deeply personal journey of self-discipline. Rabbi Klapper reveals how simple actions, like choosing your surroundings wisely or keeping Torah learning close, can fortify you against the overwhelming challenges of modernity. Whether you’re seeking practical tools or a deeper understanding of your own spiritual journey, this episode offers clarity, strength, and the reassurance that you are never alone in this battle.
