A As our generation has been blessed with an unprecedented level of Torah resources commitment to k vius ittim has become more attainable to a degree which has never been seen before At the same time there s a strong sense of yearning for sippuk hanefesh the exhilarating sense of fulfillment in learning There is clearly a sense of longing on the part of many to grasp their learning in its breadth to optimize those precious few moments of learning that our daily schedule allows for Looking forward to learning This is especially prevalent among Baalei Batim who have spent their formative years learning in Yeshivos having been inculcated with a nuanced approach to learning gemara to emerge from a sugya with clarity depth and retention The innovation of Oraysa has sparked a silent revolution throughout the Torah world Thousands of people from every segment of Klal Yisroel have adopted the Oraysa mehalech and embraced it for their hours of k vius ittim latorah Oraysa opened new vistas in Limud Hatorah Oraysa provides lomdim with a structure to their seder limud for the perfect balance of breadth and clarity to optimize their precious few moments of learning From a very young age we were taught that Torah was meant to enjoy learning was intended to be a satisfying endeavor The methodical approach of the Oraysa mehalech provides the clarity and satisfaction in learning so many strive to achieve Through its team of Talmidei Chachomim and Marbitzei Torah anoshim yireim and bekiim in Shas Oraysa has developed an approach whereby multitudes of people are rediscovering their passion for learning

A At the core of Oraysa is its schedule learning an Amud each day for five days a week Many people find immense satisfaction in this schedule as it allows them to pursue the sugya thoroughly with its nuances For retention weekends are devoted to Chazzara a hallmark of the Oraysa method For those who are interested in a more intense approach Oraysa provides daily quizzes and reviews as well as a library of relevant sources on each Amud These resources are the result of painstaking ameilus on the part of Oraysa s faculty of Talmidei Chachomim who labor through the sugyos in advance of the scheduled Limudim A pace that works The combination of learning at a pace that works while retaining significant portions of learning is a formula for satisfaction in learning attainable to everyone An amud a day is well paced to provide a terrific sense of accomplishment but deliberate enough to allow for an unhurried learning session with pauses for reflection shakla vitarya and a dip into the rudimentary mefarshim The combination of learning at a pace that works while retaining significant portions of learning is a formula for satisfaction in learning attainable to everyone Through Oraysa the most important part of the day has become the most rewarding
