In this class on Sichos HaRan 83 and 84, we discover the secret of equanimity, and learn about how the body can stay connected to Hashem even after the soul leaves it and it is lowered into the ground. We also explore the incredibly powerful concept of "Lech Lecha" - the idea that wherever we travel in life, we travel to sparks of holiness that are waiting for us to elevate! We don't ever just "happen" to be in a certain place - it's all a mission, guided by the Master Plan!
