Divrei Torah from the Rebbe Reb Melech

Aish HaTorah:
One of the founders of Chassidut in Galicia, Poland, Rabbi Elimelech of Lyzhansk, writes in his classic work on Torah "Noam Elimelech" (Bamidbar) that there is a profound connection between the soul of an infant and the soul of the person for whom he or she is named. http://www.aish.com/literacy/lifecycle/Whats_In_A_Name$.asp
Ashkenazi Jews have the custom of naming a child after a relative who has passed away. This keeps the name and memory alive, and in a metaphysical way forms a bond between the soul of the baby and the deceased relative. This is a great honor to the deceased, because its soul can achieve an elevation based on the good deeds of the namesake. The child, meanwhile, can be inspired by the good qualities of the deceased -- and make a deep connection to the past. (Noam Elimelech - Bamidbar)
http://www.aish.com/literacy/lifecycle/Naming_Your_Child.asp
The Noam Elimelech teaches that the primary aspect of a mitzvah is not its technicalities and details, but rather the love we put into its performance.
http://www.aish.com/torahportion/betweenTheLines/Intended_Deeds.asp
The Noam Elimelech discusses the second element of the basin: the copper exterior (Exodus 30:18). The Hebrew word for copper, nechoshet, shares a linguistic root with the word nachash, meaning "snake." The snake is often compared to the yetzer hara (inclination toward negativity), since the snake in the Garden of Eden was the original embodiment of evil.
