Q: Can a person free himself from suffering?

DonielFBerachos 5b teaches: רַבִּי חִיָּיא בַּר אַבָּא חֲלַשׁ. עָל לְגַבֵּיהּ רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן אֲמַר לֵיהּ: חֲבִיבִין עָלֶיךָ יִסּוּרִין? אֲמַר לֵיהּ: לֹא הֵן וְלֹא שְׂכָרָן. אֲמַר לֵיהּ: הַב לִי יְדָךְ. יְהַב לֵיהּ יְדֵיהּ, וְאוֹקְמֵיהּ. רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן חֲלַשׁ. עָל לְגַבֵּיהּ רַבִּי חֲנִינָא. אֲמַר ...

Q: Are there five or six reasons why Parshas Tzitzis was added to Shema?

DonielFBerachos 12b: פָּרָשַׁת צִיצִית מִפְּנֵי מָה קְבָעוּהָ? אָמַר רַבִּי יְהוּדָה בַּר חֲבִיבָא, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁיֵּשׁ בָּהּ חֲמִשָּׁה דְּבָרִים: מִצְוַת צִיצִית, יְצִיאַת מִצְרַיִם, עוֹל מִצְוֹת, וְדַעַת מִינִים, הִרְהוּר עֲבֵירָה, וְהִרְהוּר עֲבוֹדָה זָרָה Why did they establish the section of...

Q: Why does Rashi explain where yoke of Mitzvos is discussed in Parshas Tzitzis?

Quick question regarding tags bearing a name of the 5 books of Moses. Shall the book tag deleted if there's already a parashah tag? If so, what should remain in the book tag?
 
@Kazibácsi I think the book tags should be for questions about the book as a whole. E.g. "Why is this paragraph in Leviticus, it would fit better in Exodus, because of such-and-such properties of each book" should I think have the parsha tag for where the paragraph is and the Leviticus and Exodus tags. But such questions are rare.

@MonicaCellio Why is your name in italics in chat?
 
4:00 PM
@IsaacMoses that's a good question. I hadn't noticed, and have no idea.
Hmm. I see that the four (sic) moderators are room owners. I wonder if room owners are in italic but being a mod overrides that?
 
@MonicaCellio Yes. I believe that's it.
 
Oh hey I'm a room owner; hadn't noticed.

@MonicaCellio Yes, room owners get italicized, as I recently found out when I created the Daf Yomi room.
