each one of us has to look in the mirror
and say are we telling ourselves the
truth are we telling ourselves the truth
are we just joking are we just kidding
we're kidding ourselves so
so
the that we
have
after
is we had a section
during you know we've sinned before you
have mercy on us we have no other king
you're our only
King give us a renew our
year cancel all the evil decrees and so
on and so forth so you say listen we
messed up cancel everything that's uh
bad against
us and not only that we go
further if that wasn't enough we say
listen
Hashem put us also
in the uh same book as you put
theik put us in a same place that you
put the people that
are put us in the same book as the
people that have good
life remove all the transgressions that
we've ever done wipe them all out we're
asking not we gave us a little finger
we're asking for three bodies
so now sometimes there's a bad decree in
sh a bad decree in
sh and we're asking hm to cancel
it and it
says said it said it it's in
[Music]
the and Proverbs I
believe I actually believe it's in two
places in
will save your life but sometimes it's a
bad decree it's a bad decree in
sh and we're asking not only forem to
remove this bad decree we're asking
Hashem to turn it into something
good so how could this
be
the bov
Shalom say say a uh one time he saw a
guy carrying
water and he ask him how are
you and he
says everything is
good next day sees the same guy carrying
water that's his job 20 years he's
carrying water says how are
you so difficult so hot so this so
that says
what a you just gave me this guy
carrying water in 150 degree weather
says I gave
you I gave you a I'm just carrying water
complaining about my job that it's hot
that it's heavy that it's this because
you gave me a says what what's
the
says in thear it says that hem judges us
on R from R to he decides how mucha
you're going to get
is in and also two places in the it says
decides how much you're going to get on
until next R and whatever you're G to
get does not include the money is going
to give you back for whatever you spent
on Shabbat for whatever you spent onim
for whatever you spent on and whatever
you spent on that's in addition to the
that he decided for you on so if he
decided that this she going to make
$75,000 that doesn't include any money
that you spend on shabb and which means
that anyone that has M serious would M
spend every opportunity they can to
spend money on Shabbat to spend money on
and to give They're Not Gon to think oh
you know this month was tough I'm not
going to give it maybe next month oh no
maybe we shouldn't get this kala we
should get the cheaper kala they
wouldn't have considerations like this
why because they know that this is not
included in my PM is going to pay me
100%
back so the B says hasem decided and he
told us in the twice already twice that
he decides
the on but the M that came before the
says that hem judges us every day on
our so I always ask myself the B says I
always ask myself if if he already
decided
on what I'm going to get why is he
judging me again every
day you already decided I'm going to get
75,000 100,000 200,000 200 million
whatever I'm going to get you already
decided what I'm going to get why is he
still judging me every
day and you gave me the answer Mr
Waterman he goes I gave you the answer
he goes yeah you gave me the answer goes
what's the answer he says
on decides how much we're going to get
but every day based on our based on what
we do with it he decides how we're going
to get
it so
yesterday you had a de in sh that you're
going to get P easy way even though it
was 100 degree weather you didn't feel
that it was hot even though the WEA the
the water was just as heavy as it is
today you didn't feel that it was heavy
even though the job was 20 years
yesterday and 20 years on one day today
yesterday felt like the first day
yesterday you had parasa easily whatever
you did Led you to have easy P today
apparently you didn't do so good with
what you did yesterday today apparently
same job 20 years same heat same
everything but all of a sudden it's hot
all of a sudden it's heavy all of a
sudden it's difficult why you did
something wrong in shim they said today
did something wrong P today you're going
to get the same amount of money you're
supposed to get you sold one bottle of
water 10 bottles of water yesterday
supposed to sell 10 bottles today also
but today's 10 bottles is going to be
much more difficult to
earn so when someone has a bad decree in
sh for example when hasem decides listen
you have a difficulty coming to you
because you did certain things when a
person prays to
hasem he could open the gates of Mercy
where hasem can in essence postpone this
and give you an
opportunity an opportunity to not get
this or to get it in a different way to
get this decree spread out over a longer
period of time what's the source the
source is the punishment as a whole got
for the the golden calf when hasem saw
that am is sinned against him and
worshiped this golden calf the golden
calf came out and said I am God that
took you out of Egypt and they worshiped
him they worshiped him and everybody
else didn't say anything about it it was
in essence considered in sh as if they
all did it as if they all worshiped this
golden calf hasem told mosenu let me
wipe them all out and start a new nation
from you a better Nation from you mosenu
fought for the nation said no what you
know please forgive them or wipe me out
first and so on and so forth as The
Story Goes
says no problem butal tells us in the
that every single time
that as individuals or as a whole
suffers throughout all of history from
3,300 years ago until today and until
the end of times anytime am suffers part
of the reason that they're suffering is
because of
a why hasem said
I originally owed them this punishment
based on what they did I give if I gave
the punishment in one shot will destroy
all of
them but because of the chu that mosu
did on their behalf because of the Chua
that the nation themselves did on their
own behalf I spread the punishment over
thousands of years why because if I
would give it all in one shot I would
destroy them so sometimes when they is a
bad
decree your prayers your chuva can
spread out the punishment over a long
period of time so because there's no
such thing as suffering without sin so
sometimes you could for example get a
flat tire because of something you did
15 years
ago sometimes you can lose money because
of something you did 10 years ago not
now now you're sadik but you did
something 10 years ago and says i'
rather pay you now this punishment now
because the five minutes 5 hours is five
days or even five years of Anguish in
this world is
infinitely more valuable than uh than uh
the next world because in
Gom it's much more difficult and much
longer suffering five minutes here could
be the equivalent of 500 years
there so if you knew it then you would
say give me more give me more punishment
give me more punishment so that's the
thing with when it comes TOA when it
comes to all types of all types of good
things all types of Good Deeds this
could e could potentially cancel out a
decree altogether depending on your
chuva or uh more likely it could
potentially spread out the punishment
over a longer period of time which will
make it pain you know less painful there
are certain sins that you could
completely do chuva for and there are
certain sins that you have to suffer for
but that suffering could be over a
longer period of time and the way you
know where you stand is that the deeper
your chuva the deeper your chuva is the
more hasem is going to give you
opportunities to do Chua for things that
you forgot
about so I give you an example this is a
logical but it's very much truth someone
that had an abortion someone that had an
abortion how do you do how do you do
true well for an
abortion you killed the baby what are
you going to having a baby is not
chuva having a baby is a different
Mitzvah how do you do chuva for an
abortion so what could happen is again
this is obviously hashem's ways are
infinite and as he says his thoughts are
not our thoughts uh beginning with me
but this is just to give you an idea an
idea someone that had an abortion in
reality they can't undo an abortion but
what Hashem can do for you if he sees
that your chuva is serious if he sees
that you are doing everything else good
you're keeping Shabbat you're keeping
kosher you're working on this you're
working on this you're working on a
million and a half other things you're
doing great you are super
chuva sadik sadik everything is great
but you can't undo something you did 10
years ago you can't so what is he going
to do he's going to send you a
person that wants to have an abortion
but asks you your
opinion what do you think should I have
an abortion should I should I kill this
piece of meat no it's not piece of meat
it's a baby no but you can't see it no
no no you could see it if you look at
the camera you can see it's a real baby
and you are given an opportunity to save
this
baby that could be a form of chuba or
for example somebody that wasted seed
somebody wasted seed there I don't think
there's a man on Earth that hasn't
wasted seed how do you fix it how do you
fix it a lot of people ask me this
question we have couple of big lectures
about wasting
seed as I told everybody there's a few
things that are necessary for chuva for
wasting seed because you can't undo it
every time you waste seed it's millions
of were destroyed as a result of that
you can't undo
it but the way that you have to do it
according to the according to the
there's a few things that you need to do
um most important is that you have to
there's two main things that are most
important obviously you have to stop
that's an obvious that's not part of the
two most important that's just a reality
if you don't stop then stop listening to
the lecture and smash your head against
the wall a few times and then come back
to the lecture and then become you know
then maybe you'll listen because if you
can't do chuva if you continue to
sin but if you're normal and uh or at
least after you smashed your few against
the wall a few times and you became
normal as a result this is what you need
to do in order to do chuva for wasting
seed first you have to learn serious
toah meaning to that's difficult for
you not difficult like you're pretending
it's difficult difficult for you so for
the highest level of Tor is
learning you have to
learn it's difficult it makes you work
your brain and makes you it's difficult
it's not easy learning with art scool
without art scool doesn't make a
difference it's all difficult you have
to learn extra more than that most
importantly you have to learn without
corruption not like like you're talking
with your friends and hanging out and
the TV's on and you're playing on the
internet and you're checking your text
message no where is at least two hours
you're not talking for two hours
straight about anything other than Torah
and you're learning it m sweating
sweating when you're learning T if you
can like exerting yourself as much as
possible that's after stopping learn
serious so that helps each time you
sweat that helps rectify the sin but
it's not going to be enough by itself to
fix all the times that somebody wasted
seed even as when they were a teenager
forget it as an adult when they were a
teenager so what's the best way what's
the ultimate solution to help to doing
chba for wasting seed getting other
people to
stop getting other people to stop is the
most important thing that you can do now
obviously you're not going to be able to
be or even want to be in a room with
every single person that you know when
they're about to waste
seed uh so the reality of it is that the
way to do it is by spreading the
information so you have our lectures
that we did a couple of lectures about
wasting seeds send them the
lectures either by link or get some CDs
give them the lectures on CD number two
it's track number five that's the most
uh well-known lecture about the uh
wasting seed very comprehensive there's
a few other ones but that's the most
comprehensive one if you don't have
money to sponsor CDs just tell me I'll
give you some CDs for free if you don't
think you know don't have a place for
CDs you could just send people a link
for the lecture long story short get
people to watch the sh get people to
watch the shers and learn about wasting
seed because every time somebody stops
wasting seed as a result of you it's as
if you saved another Soul each time
another Soul another 100 million Souls
another 200 million souls and so so on
and so forth and in essence making up
for all the times that you made a
mistake that's the way to do serious
chuba so it's a combination of learning
T and getting other people to do Chua
one by itself or the other is not going
to last it's good but it won't last just
learning T is not going to be
enough just learning is not going to be
enough because you probably wasted seed
well more than a few times and just
doing Zim won't last
simply because without T you're not
going to continue knowing that it's
important to to get people to do
Chua so when it comes to
uh doing cha for all these things again
it's a kiru is the best solution in the
world if you can't give out CDs if you
can't share lectures because you're
embarrassed or you are I don't know uh
don't know who does and who doesn't then
the best way is to sponsor it donate
money donate money for anyone that
teaches uh things about wasting seed you
know in in Hebrew there's several in
English there's very few um I think
there's only two of us two three people
that talk about it that's it um but in
essence that's that's the way to do it
you could either do it with money or you
could do it with time or you could do
with a combination of
both um I think I answered most of the
questions
oh quickly the as far as elevating the
sh the best thing you can do with
elevating the shot is getting people do
chuva so to elevate somebody that died
uh whether now or million years ago
whenever it was you want to
elevate set up
a with them in mind uh or sponsor CDs or
sponsor all types of kiru activities
seminars uh um know Retreats whatever
all types of things to get people to do
chuva uh invest into kiru that's uh in
their in their honor and their uh uh
also that's definitely going to every
time somebody does chuat that's
definitely helping them drastically as
far as elevating
the um during the uh the first year you
know especially since somebody had their
whole life uh to do uh to do
mitv it's yes you are limited to how
much you could possibly do you're
limited if someone's someone
died there's not much that you can do
for
them there's not much you could do for
them you could say kadish you could make
you know pray for them to have an easier
judgment or for them to be given a uh
another chance or for hasem to have more
Mercy on them but in reality there's
certain sins that there's really nothing
you could do but it's still good to pray
for anyone it's still good to pray for
anyone I tell you a story I heard from R
again
and Shalom he says that uh this
uh woman that he tried to get her to do
chva with a husband try to get her to
come to a
seminar for two
years two years she started doing chuva
but she could never get a husband to
come to the
seminar and he never did Chua after two
years she calls him love you
again we're ready you have a you have a
seminar we're going to come he's like
yeah we have a seminar this weekend but
there's no room sold out four five 600
people sold out I'm sorry no my husband
finally finally agreed to come after two
years two and a half years I'm trying to
get him to come please for find me a
room he goes I'm sorry I don't have she
starts
crying so again had a huge heart for
and he says fine I'll give you two
rooms my rooms I'll give you my
rooms he tells his wife M you know the
the the
raban always goes through a more
difficult time than a rabbi why because
she has to Suffer Without the credit
quietly so she says to the rabbi where
we going to where we going to sleep says
oh they have a miklat they have like a
uh what's the M CL in English shelter
like a sh like a what is it shelter
shelter guess to some extent they put
all types of uh equipment there there's
no ventilation there's no nothing we're
going to sleep there he says they opened
the M CL for
us cats dogs rats everything came out he
says even the rats ran away you know why
he goes they're afraid I want to make
him do
chva so anyway his wife started crying
me but what are you going to do to get
people to do
Chua they knew the value of helping
somebody do Chua long story short as uh
everyone is uh supposed to come he gets
a phone call the same lady is
crying love again I'm sorry but my
husband is not going to be able to do
chuva he goes what again he says he's
not coming goes no no my husband got
into a car accident and
died a few hours ago and
uh he's not going to be able to do
Chua so he says the story continues
though apparently Hashem knew in his
heart this guy wasn't planning on coming
to do chuva or he made enough sins where
hem has had it with him he gave him
enough times he said I'll make sin I'll
do chuva make do says I'm not going to
let you do chuv even when you're ready
to do CH I'm not going to let you let it
happen this is a real punishment in this
world so AB again says that the woman
after the guy died she came to my office
and she started hysterical crying saying
he coming to my to me in my dreams every
night like a homeless person says little
little little what does he want for me
what does he want for me and he says
right now he's in G and he needs all the
you can possibly give him any that you
can do on his behalf any learning any
anything you could do he's asking for
you to to do for him somebody you have
somebody doing kadish he because no
nobody doing
kadish so he told her a few things to do
donate certain money learn certain Tora
sponsor this sponsor that and have
somebody say kadish for him says I have
yes I have tell
so after he had this uh start happening
the uh guy stopped coming to her in our
dreams a year passes the agreement was
for a year year passes the woman comes
to him a year and a day later crying
hysterical and she says he's coming back
to my dreams and he's saying a little
more please a little more a little more
why what happened did the guy stop goes
I don't know if the guy stopped let me
call him he calls his uh student he tell
him did you stop saying kadish he goes
yeah I said for a year he goes oh
apparently needs a little
more apparently needs a little bit more
so we do everything we possibly can is a
real stories it's not like make believe
stories these stories happened you want
to believe don't believe it's your
problem the reality is these are real
stories these things happen a lot of
people don't like to believe in mystical
things no it's this it's that it happens
you don't want to wait for it to happen
to you for you to believe it one guy
came to the r and he says uh I'm never
going to do chba until God puts hair on
my
Palms if God puts hair on my
Palms I'll do
cha he RI again says am
in am
in this was a big scene a lot of people
the guy was a big
a year
later somebody walks into his office
with a beard
religious yeah how can I help you the
guy starts hysterical
crying what happened who are you what he
goes you remember me he goes no no who
are you goes I'm the guy that says that
said I'm only going to do Chua after God
puts hair on my
Palms he says oh oh yeah yeah I remember
you I remember you yes I said amen he
goes yes it happened and he shows him
his his hands and they have hair on the
on his on his palms he goes how could
this be it's it's it's a it's against
nature he goes that night after I made a
whole big scene in front of 500 people
said when Hashem makes this and this
this this Hashem took it seriously that
night I got into an accident with my
motorcycle and they had to take the all
my my hands got to all the skin from my
hands peeled off and they had to take
skin from different body parts
and when it healed those different body
parts had hair growing on them and now I
have hair on my
hands people think it's a joke people
think Hashem is their buddy think Hashem
jokes
around they treat them they test
them they do all types of stupid things
and that's what the
says stupid people M stupid people why
stupid people he says I give you
everything I give youa I give you this I
give you this I give you this and what
do you do you go against me you use my
air to breathe against me my money to
bet against me everything against me
it's m
stupid so for us to do
Chua everyone is responsible for each
other so you can't just do chuv by
yourself got to get your friends got to
get your family got to get your neighbor
got to get the people you don't know got
to get the people you do know got to get
as many people as you possibly get
involved now they're not going to listen
to you why because you used to be just
like
them but they may listen to me they may
listen to ra mrai they may listen to
somebody else because it's coming from
somewhere else so that's where the CDs
come in that's where the lectures come
in that's where you could sponsor
lectures set up lectures all of those
things get on to do CH it's not it's not
as difficult as it
seems we just need you to
care and that's
really what Hashem is expecting from us
in this yum Kip yum Kip is not about
kaparot of chickens because if really if
it was karot for our sins we'd need a
farm of
cows each one of us would need a a slew
of cows lined up one after
another like they said to count the
amount of people that uh the population
of uh of China if you just wanted to
count them 1 2 3 four like a line it
would take over 40
years just to count them 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
nine 10 because you know so many people
billion and a half people people give
birth and so on and so forth it would
take 40 years to count
them our sins probably not so much
different so the chicken's not going to
help you chicken's not going to help you
what's going to help you you two things
one work on your midot start doing
serious
chuva if you're lazy work on it stop
being
lazy if you're not learning you better
start
learning if you're violating Shabbat you
got to start keeping Shabbat there's no
half Shabbat start keeping Shabbat as
best you know if you still think it's
okay to be not modest you have something
coming reality check you have to be
modest doesn't matter if you're 12 years
old or you're 25 years old or 75 years
old stop lying to yourself you have to
do chuva you have to do chuva that's
number one number two get am to do
cha you got to get am to do cha CDs
links
whatever we have several major projects
we've been working on for a long
time and they're going to be launched
very quick very soon one is a brand new
website the website's going to have many
many new features chuva stories each
person here can write their chuva story
on there other people could has tens of
thousands of people that watch our
lectures they want to share their
stories to motivate other people you're
going to be able to share your chu
stories on the website you're going to
be able to share uh questions you have
questions you could ask online we'll
publish the answers online if you want
to make it as a video make it a video
but just make it short so they already
have enough length with my videos
um the same thing with the application
there's going to be an app coming out
very soon for for the phone with all the
lectures and also we're going to have a
a uh this is actually practically ready
but we're only going to launch it it's
going to be a TV
station we have a TV
station with all of our
lectures uh I'm not telling anybody to
buy a TV Shalom but if you already have
one instead of watching nonsense at
least
watch you'll be able to watch you'll be
able to
watch as we had more
rabbis those will be on there too so the
the the
organization is getting bigger and
bigger a lot of major projects there's a
few movies in the makings in the next
month we should have at least a couple
come out the application the posters the
CDs all of that it's coming
out you can share all of it you can
sponsor all of it you can partner with
it whatever you want it's up to you you
know me I don't ask for money you guys
want to donate donate you don't donate
doesn't make difference to me somebody
will AEM will send it the key is get
involved get involved somehow because
you need it more than anyone else
because you're doing
chuva you're doing CH to do CH takes
time to do CH takes doing get you
that so we're going to have a sh also
tomorrow night in Miami anyone wants to
join us obviously a different sh other
than that uh anyone doesn't come to the
sh have make sure that this yum you
realize it's not just about chickens
it's not just about
fasting hasem doesn't care if you eat
hasem cares you do
chuva okay so think about chuva think
about what can I fix what am I keeping
what am I not keeping do the pros and
cons do what I'm doing what I'm not
check versus not check whatever you not
doing start checking next to it start
doing it work on it and all of will
do and we'll have a another year of more
