Dear
Prospective Student,
More
than fifty years ago, when Hadar Hatorah was first founded, it was
a revolutionary idea for a young man to want to attach himself to
a traditional, chassidic lifestyle and join a yeshiva to accomplish
these purposes. Nowadays, it is much easier. It is more accepted,
more understood but still not necessarily an easy step to take. At
Hadar Hatorah, we try to make this transition process as easy and
inspiring as possible. One important resource is the community of
Crown Heights at large. This includes many of our own alumni, professionals
and businessmen, raising families of their own. These individuals
are truly a significant resource, providing an example and additional
channel for direction for Hadar Hatorah students.
Most
important, however, is the knowledge of Judaism that you, the student
will learn and absorb in the yeshiva itself. The process of learning
and study is all encompassing, requiring time, patience and determination.
It is not only absorbing information, but bringing this information
to a level of personal realization.
Our
teachers are here to support you, guide you and answer all your questions,
no matter what they might be. Our goal is guide and educate you to
become a practicing and knowledgeable Jew and a Chasid of the Rebbe.
Whether
a man joins Hadar Hatorah’s full-time program for a significant
period of time or just for the summer program in the Catskills or
even for one of the ten-day YeshivaCations given three times a year,
he will surely gain knowledge and love for our holy Jewish tradition.
