The Baal Shem Tov and the Doctor A highly-regarded doctor was once walking in the street when he met up with a patient of his. The doctor stared at him in anger and sputtered, “I told you not to walk on that leg until it heals!”
had a large jewel, but it was stolen from me.”
“But it is healed,” the man replied.
“No. My sickness is yearning for Hashem. Your sickness is that you have forgotten that you ever had that desire.”
“You know that’s impossible! I saw for myself the wound you suffered on that leg. That takes many months to heal!” “I went to another kind of healer, doctor. I went to a mystical rabbi, the one they call the Baal Shem Tov.” The doctor narrowed his eyes, then simply walked away. A week later, the doctor paid the “mystical healer” a visit. He knocked loudly on the Baal Shem Tov’s door, and as soon as the door opened, he cried indignantly, “I hear you claim to be a healer!”The Baal Shem Tov looked at his visitor. “Hashem is the healer, my friend. Come in!”The doctor did not move. “Let us examine each other,” the doctor finally proposed. “Whoever best diagnoses the sickness of the other will be proved the better doctor.”
“Ah! That is your sickness!” said the Baal Shem Tov. “What? Missing my diamond?”
The doctor sucked in a breath. Suddenly, a tear flowed down his cheek. Then it turned into a deluge of tears. Still holding the hands of the Baal Shem Tov, he began to sob. “Please,” he said. “Teach me how to yearn!” “With G-d’s help,” said the Baal Shem Tov, “your healing has already begun.” The Baal Shem Tov passed away on the second day of Shavuos, in the year 5520 (1760). He left behind a son and daughter and a movement called Chassidus, a flourishing concept that has become an intrinsic part of Judaism today. He was succeeded as leader of the Chassidic movement by Rabbi Dov Ber, the Maggid of Mezritch.
The Baal Shem Tov smiled. “As you wish. But please do me the favor of coming in!”Once inside, the doctor began his examination of the Baal Shem Tov. The doctor poked him, pinched him, gazed in his ears, and tapped on his knees. After an hour, the doctor said, “You have no sickness that I can find.” The Baal Shem Tov merely shook his head and said, “I’m not surprised that you couldn’t find it. I so desire the presence of Hashem that my heart cries out in pain when I cannot feel it. My sickness is this constant yearning for my Creator.” The Baal Shem Tov looked at the doctor for a while and then said, “Now let me examine you.” The Baal Shem Tov took the doctor’s hands and gazed into his eyes. At last, he asked the doctor, “Have you ever lost something very valuable?” “As a matter of fact,” said the doctor, “I once

Health Health Benefits of Cheese Cheese is produced throughout the world; it is an ancient food with origins that predate recorded history. It is a dairy product made from pressed milk curds and different varieties are made from unripened (fresh) cheese or ripened (aged) cheese. Cheese is a delicious and nutritious food that is very versatile. You can add it to other dishes or eat it by itself. It’s convenient and portable. There are more than 300 varieties of cheese—including American, Cheddar, Mozzarella and Colby—many of which are available in various flavors, forms (chunks, slices, cubes, shredded, grated, crumbled, sticks, spreads) and packaging to meet consumers’ needs. For some people who are allergic or intolerant to dairy, however, cheese may not be a healthy food. However, for the rest of us it provides many health benefits and can be a good part of a well-balanced diet. Cheese contains a host of nutrients like calcium, protein, phosphorus, zinc, vitamin A and vitamin B12. Aged cheese like Swiss and Cheddar also has the additional benefit of providing us with the critical nutrient Vitamin K2 - a nutrient that is almost nonexistent in today’s diet. Calcium is one of the nutrients most likely to be lacking in the American diet. According to government statistics, nine out of 10 women and six out of 10 men fall short of calcium recommendations. The high-quality protein in cheese provides the body with essential building blocks for strong muscles. If you are lactose intolerant, many cheeses, particularly aged cheeses such

as Cheddar and Swiss, contain little or no lactose and are often well tolerated. For the past 30 years or so, saturated fat— found in meats, eggs, cheese, butter, whole milk, and some oils—was considered a primary cause of heart disease. New research, however, is showing that saturated fat has a minimal impact on heart disease risk, which is changing the “saturated fat is bad” paradigm and allowing people to enjoy more of their favorite foods with little concern. If you are still concerned about saturated fat or calories, you can grate or sprinkle harder cheeses over your dishes or use small amounts of aromatic and sharp cheeses Continued on page 6

Bamidbor 5772 COMPLETE TURNAROUND Dear Kollel Chatzos: With sincere appreciation and utter amazement, I write this letter to you about the extreme turnabout that occurred in our house through kollel chatzos. Baruch Hashem, we have always seen lots of nachas from our bachurim. Yet recently, we detected a slight change in one of our precious sons. After investigating, we discovered that he was associating with notsuch-good-company…. Our anguish, our pain was ineffable. We constantly tried
KOLLEL CHATZOS talking to him, begging him to break away from this undesirable association but we could not get through to him. Shabbos was the worst. Every Shabbos meal became a painful and distressing confrontation. Ever since we signed up as a partner to kollel chatzos, things have completely changed!! Apparently, our bachur’l abandoned his inappropriate friendship. The bitter disputes have ceased. The last few weeks we had peaceful happy shabbos meals. The atmosphere in the house in general has become harmonious and serene! Certainly, it’s in the zchus of our contribution to Kollel Chatzos!! Thank you!
NOTES &QUOTES
Torah Source: As the holy Yom Tov Shavous approaches, men around the world are preparing to stay up all night to learn. As we walk to shul, we can appreciate the devotion of the Chusheva Lomdei Kollel Chatzos, who wake up each and every night, with ardor and passion learn on our behalf. New York

Many people on the go or those who don’t have reduced-fat varieties of cheeses are also time to prepare a protein-rich meal. available. Cheese is also a very feasible option for people on low carb diets, as it contains very little if any carbs and on the other hand provides us with a well-balanced protein. Cheese can also be eaten straight off the shelf, which is not usually the case with many other proteins such as eggs, fish and meat. This makes cheese a very convenient and practical option for
