In this first shiur of the *My Generation* series, we begin exploring Rav Kook’s *Meimor HaDor*, found in *Ikvei HaTzon*.
We discuss the historical context in which Rav Kook was writing and how he saw light emerging from darkness — even in the spiritual confusion of his generation.
Together we learn the prologue to *Ikvei HaTzon*, uncovering why Rav Kook chose this name, and begin the essay with its opening theme: **the great, subconscious pain of the generation.**
Rav Kook teaches that this deep, unspoken pain is not only psychological but cosmic — a pain that transcends language, reaching toward redemption. He speaks to the struggle of our times and even hints to the inner turmoil that will surface near the end of days.

Rav Kook (22) War of Worldviews: Chinuch without manipulation - Revealing the Torah in Creation
In this week’s Rav Kook shiur, we journeyed into a radically trusting approach to chinuch—one that sees the child not as a problem to be fixed, but as a soul already whole. Drawing from Zeronim, Orot HaKodesh (Chochmas HaKodesh II), and the War of Worldviews, we explored how manipulative parenting—even when masked as guidance—can distort the deeper mission of education: to honor the divine spark within each child.
Rav Kook teaches that all of life, even secular wisdom, is rooted in kedusha, awaiting its return to Source. This expansive vision reframes how we relate not only to our children, but to the world itself—as a vessel of Torah waiting to be revealed.
In anticipation of Shavuos, when "hakol modim ba’inan lachem"—all agree the Torah must be made personal—we reflected on how the Torah is not limited to the Beis Midrash, but embedded in the very fabric of creation. Education, then, becomes an act of uncovering that Torah—within the world, and within the soul of the child.
