A new episode has been released on the YouTube channel “Menorah,” which can rightfully be called special. The video “How to Make a Dream Come True? Jewish Wisdom” is a deep and candid conversation between Dnipro’s Chief Rabbi, Shmuel Kaminezki, and his daughter, Sara, whose return to the airwaves of the “Menorah” channel many had eagerly awaited. The format of an intimate conversation lends this episode particular warmth and a sense of personal presence, as if the viewer becomes a participant in the dialogue.
This conversation is about desires and gratitude, about dreams and responsibility for them. It explores why a person, daily receiving countless gifts—life, health, home, bread, and air—often stops noticing their value and rushes after “more,” without considering the meaning of the request or the source of the blessing. During Hanukkah, the participants reflect on how to make wishes correctly and which dreams are truly worthy of being uttered in prayer.
The video raises questions that concern many: how to ask the Almighty so that the request is not merely formal; whether popular “wish marathons” change reality; what the power of prayer is and why it can transform a person and their life. Particular attention is paid to traditional forms of appeal—letters to the Rebbe and notes to the Western Wall—their inner meaning, and the intention with which they should be written.
This video is for those who want to understand themselves more deeply, learn gratitude and mindful prayer, and also look at their own dreams through the prism of Jewish wisdom. Watch the new episode on the “Menorah” channel, share your thoughts in the comments, and pass this video along to those for whom it may be especially important.
