Tikkun Olam — To Braid the World

She recounts a poignant story of five IDF soldiers who were captured together, with one soldier braiding the others' hair before they were freed—a powerful symbol of connection and strength. Join Rabbi Buchdahl for a teaching and meditation on the concept of Tikkun Olam not as "fixing" what's broken, but as "braiding the world together," weaving interconnectedness and mutual support, recognizing that our strength lies in unity and love.
