the yeshiva dotnet a page viewed BAE's
one two three four five five lines from
the top so at last we applied I should
mention that today is the yard site of
the author of this mind maravilla
Perisher his yard site is you Dolloff
menachem of of the afresh of Dollard
that's 1864 so at last we have come to
decode the marshall the long marshall
that has been explained that when the
teacher in middle of his teaching
experiences this new flash of wisdom
this incredible profound insight and he
must interrupt the communication with
the student in order to grasp this new
epiphany and the interruption happens on
three levels within three stages on the
level of hokhmah where he senses the new
insight but at this point he can still
wing it and continue to communicate even
if it's not with the same level of
vitality and in stage b beena where he
must already pay much more attention to
the development of the new idea and
therefore his words may become confusing
and his inner thoughts his new inner
thoughts may change the words which the
student will immediately realize that
there is something off and finally in
the stur third stage of das with a
teacher will fall silent and all
communication will stop and the deeper
he gets closer to the grasping the glitz
the the the more he gets close to the
grasping of the new idea the new hump
saw the new epiphany the new insight the
more the distance the more the absence
the more the silence to the point that
is no
communication whatsoever not even a
gesture with the hand not even wait for
a moment because he's now totally
consumed by the new insight
what's from the teachers perspective
only the deepest desire to give his
student everything to give his student
all truth in other words this is coming
completely from the love to his Talmud
from the students perspective is
perceived as absence distance detachment
and really on some level neglect or
abandonment or even betrayal if he
doesn't know who his teacher is and as a
result of that there's two dimensions
that are both very real from the
teachers perspective there is a deep
closeness this may be the deepest moment
of closeness because the entire
experience is here just to give the
teacher the student everything even the
deepest truth and yet from the students
perspective it's a moment a very
powerful distance and therefore there's
a pain involved and the two are
dependent upon each other they're not
separate it's two perspectives of the
very same reality and we could
understand how this works in the martial
if the teacher does not do this if he
just allows himself to continue being
present he will never ever be able to
reach that state of consciousness and
share that with the student it may
disappear who knows for how long maybe
even forever but here there's stage 1
and stage B - stage 1 is with this
student is confused meaning he doesn't
know what's going on all he sees is this
blank look on the face of his teacher
who used to be so close to her
and is gone states to is when the
teacher gets it and the student sees
that something positive happened in the
world of the teacher he doesn't have it
yet but there is a glow what we will
caught we call what we call me hero the
unpin a brightness on the face a glow on
the face and the teacher he got it and
that glow itself gives comfort and
solace to the student who could now see
that there's something positive happened
even though he or she did not get
anything from it which of course in the
NIM shell is the difference between
plaza the poor Anissa and Shiva then
attempter between the three weeks till
Tish above and the seven weeks that
follow that because as the language that
was used from the sovereign from the
writings of their easel in the stage one
class of the Pyrenees this is the
historic us there is the ascent the
departure from the old motion from the
old state of awareness and therefore
communication on the three levels of
caca mabini das but if we remember the
language that was used all the way back
at the beginning it was that after that
you have them sienten attempter after
the hist all coasts of gimel moisten
Habad you have Zion and attempter which
is as gallows motion that occur in the
middle of Zhou which means the
revelation of the new level of motion in
the midde serves our meaning in the
middle of the Mafia in the experience of
the teacher now we can understand what
this means the reason that there was the
hist all cos of the motion is because of
their perfection they reach their
ultimate state South MYSA and therefore
what happened is now there is a Cyrus
there's a birth of my son de Atika of a
new level of awareness and the teacher
that is what happens and from that is
iris
old moissan have to leave and dissipate
there has to be an ascent a departure
from it on three levels caca Mabini das
and that's what allows for the
revelation of the new motion but the
first revelation is we're in the seven
mid days of the Mafia after it he
reached ask Osama bin Laden which
creates a glow and creates the nakami in
the mind of the macabre who now has to
get to the next stage which is opening
himself up for this new level of
awareness so that's what we continue now
Villa pain you'd bathe five lines from
the top Villa hey how do we know that
the Mafia really got it we saw that the
departure was so drastic that even his
external thoughts and words are not
being communicated to the student in
other words there is complete silence
Pisgah the see you say the entire life
line has been interrupted this is the
sim and this is a sign that the numeron
have been absorbed not only by his
gospel by his been a but also by his das
in other words the muscular idea is
completely ready in the mind of the
Mafia because that's what das says das
is the pro team that come after the bina
well okay miss Garland him the bazillion
mid-ice of Shalimar spiash a Miss spoil
Mirza and therefore this ideas first
revealed and manifested in the seven
meters of the marsh be of the mentor
show miss Foyle Meza who's affected by
it who's moved by it the new awareness
affects him on a level of mid-ice which
means it touches his his core emotions
and values jihad Asuma career Hamid is
Kiowa because das has always the source
the key to me this das is always the
intellectual intimacy which makes the
idea relevant and because relevant it
becomes part of me who I am that das
Rodham yo discover Kaka man Ben it could
still be abstract and detached but na
das Voorhis me dose of Shalimar
spiritual needed an pinch alloy and the
light the fact that it's glowing in his
meat
which is called nehe ruda unpin and a
hero dumped and literally means I said
the light of his face is a glow on his
face
Boykin they burst forth who may eat in
between the Madera Rockefeller Makabe
and this casts a glow even if it's a
superficial glow I'm the recipient on
the student shaggy I'm a man who Tom
Holman that he should at least
experience some solace Vicki way and
hope and be talkin and trust al Haas
there must be a knowing the love of the
mentor Shia days amiss has a gamble
Shahi sir goggle that gives him the his
of the inspiration then Powerman the
strength even in a very dense darkness
shallow showing in Chickasaw Caius canal
additional Scuderia table was
momentarily at the moment there was an
interruption of the flow of vitality as
we explained for him the words of his
Rebbe is his lifeline he's a Talmud
movie
he's completely committed not to miss a
word and his tremendous pleasure in the
light and it all came to an abrupt
interruption and for this for him this
is a you may call it a traumatic a very
deep void that's created in kozo my
minima Kavala are you godly i Sakana
nonetheless there is an accommodator
soul is because he trusts believes in
hopes that there's a new light coming
even though he knows nothing about this
new light because all he knows is that
there was a lack of communication for
Arthur Cochran afterwards hamachi phaser
by Kia Bahama Kabul gamba Musa then
could come the next stage with this mark
of meaning this light which is still in
a state of Mach if it has not permeated
this student but ultimately it can burst
through and inter be internalized by him
meaning she have in my favour liberally
caballes Hadassah's now he needs to
direct his mind in his heart to receive
the new the Hadassah's he's taka a good
student very good student but to be
Makabe the Hedorah is the new inside the
new epiphany now he has to redirect as
maya and his life vahana hooba bays in
unum and the preparation
as always in two stages Alif number one
condition in my favor Libre mcComish
evasive ask elusive arcade machine year
clay take on Montgomery for his mind and
hard to become vacant of previous
thoughts and ideas to become a truly
empty vessel even relative to the
emptiness to the openness that he had
previously for hobbies number two Shama
scar Davis at smell Hamish ble Schmoyer
may Pyrrha boy he has to become close
emotionally and conceptually completely
close to the mentor tune in to hear from
his Reba the new insight aldera similar
to the expression of Hazael I say oz
nakaka fracases to make your ear like a
anybody knows the translation of
rehearses ah a receiver yeah what yeah
like a funnel of vessel that is
completely tuned in to be able to
channel the words through him his ears
are completely become a conduit a
conduit you're looking up the
translation thank you I can't do it to
be able to receive this information so
there's two stages of preparation stage
number one is going away stepping away
ah a receiver
professors are receiving one is stepping
away from the old and the second is
tuning in to the new stepping away from
the old means carving out the empty
space a clay rake on even from the
previous level of awareness that's step
one that's like sir Mira that's like
whatnot but that's not enough that's
that's big that's the prerequisite but
step number two is now the sky riff to
become close to tune really in to the
mentor to be able to receive this new
experience these are the two half
shuttles miss probably for our two our
shortest to new experiences to new half
shutters to new stripping's of the
previous layers number one
we called hinako Satz Moosa or Anaka
Scott's Masai which is what he's saying
here suspending everything putting the
self on the side carving out an
emptiness an openness an openness which
is an emptiness clay rake on an openness
to the new idea and removing it removing
anything else that's there and number
two opening yourself up becoming close
to become what we call the coup d'etat
casaya side that I am completely tuned
in to the to the new awareness you're
asking usually when you learn you wonder
how hold on to the previous cuz it just
adds to that right right
so the Gomorrah says baba metzia that
Rebbe's era he saw the cloud of the
astir all yeah some mem connoisseur
another good Samaritan is Moustakas when
a Talmud Bavli Nevada when he was going
to her to stroll he fasted 40 fast or
something a hundred fasts she should
forget Talmud Bavli so he should I be
able to understand how Madeira shall me
now imagine somebody tells you he knows
the whole time with Bob Lee but he wants
to start learning your shamans you know
Tom fast fast for half a year so you
forget everything on the contrary
right but the truth is that because
there's learning and is learning ribs
eight understood that the Derek Holloman
of Tom Lehrer shaman is a different era
Collinwood
it's a completely different paradigm way
and the remembering talmud bava lee it's
not that he had to forget the facts that
he's talking about real real learning
the paradigms the estoy de s-- would
destruct would obstruct and interfere
the ability to be able to learn time
with you a shaman see he pushes fasted
imagine a hundred fasts a hundred fast
to go through a metamorphosis to be able
to be ready for a new day Allah says
this Russell says this he's giving you a
different way of looking at you're not
really right so you're not moving away
from facts that you learned that our
tourists M s that are timeless you know
you're moving away from the certain ways
a certain bias certain perception
certain perspective certain paradigms
that ultimately will interfere with the
new reality the new experience the yuvan
base have shot to say in lucema had data
to understand what these two stages are
you can always understand something from
what from from from what it's not from
what's not may head in from the lack of
it right in other words this is very
interesting when you want to understand
something so understand what's what's
missing without it if you'll explain to
me what's missing without it so then
I'll understand what the contribution is
if you just talk about something and if
and if this was missing nothing so that
means it's nothing you always understand
something and what if I wouldn't have
this and then you can measure always the
contribution of it right when you see
the lack the head there so then just
like we know when somebody's missing
something they often appreciate what
they have because until you don't like
the Pasek says well you're my lawyer
your highness and mahadesh VIN if
Khadijah keep Akkad Masha waha jónasson
tells his best friend of it tomorrow or
a side dish you will be remembered
because your seat will be absent
sometimes it takes a seat to be absent
to remember somebody sometimes people
are not remembered when they're there
right I you see them you take it for
granted you take them for granted even
if God until you become remember it can
you pocket which vessel it's a very real
idea sometimes a sad idea how so yeah
yeah that's on another level they also
become holy so the truth is and
everything in life is that way when it's
not here I can appreciate it but here
we're talking about a concept sometimes
when you want to understand something do
you want to appreciate in other words
see really what it is see what's lacking
without it he says yes I will understand
that much better may a data from the
lack of it let's see what's a student
that doesn't have this let's talk about
a student who doesn't have these things
but what is it like he doesn't have it
he says yes me shechet may hate off'
sometimes you have a student he listens
well the toilet and he absorbs a fin
Luiz Inacio Shana move on him life which
is a big finish he's ready to absorb
letters and word that he doesn't
understand ROC Shh otsuma prelab as long
as they left his rep his mouth he will
listen to them he will absorb them which
was already a certain Madurai because
you have somebody if I don't understand
it I just shut down anybody knows that
experience in other words I'm not really
committed I don't have what do you call
it skin in the game I don't know if skin
and again as long as it's working it's
nice it's fulfilling me good the moment
it's like whoa okay I'm done have a
wonderful day I tune out that's why
there's iPhones and I go do my own thing
if at some point you're gonna come back
and you're gonna entertain me again I
meant so he says that that he's not even
talking about that's why Lena hola wash
alone that's that's you know the person
is Thomas now called a student this is
called you know entertainment
entertainment but here we're talking
about a person he's going to listen to
words that he doesn't understand
that's a deep thing why cuz they came
out of the mouth of his room but Soros
are dying Ladakh big bamboo love in him
he understands that he still needs to be
my doctor he needs to understand them he
needs to relate to them
Avel a my mouth is absent my mask a
loss of a coid man what he will not do
is divest himself strip literally strip
himself mouth me strip himself
that's what it is
removing he will not strip himself from
his previous colors from his previous
ways of looking at things
but eyghon shakaal UDI so listen to
these words incredible but - shall call
you the ice of us a ghost of the
dividend a boy who rock appeared the ice
of her coitus he will only allow his
entire appreciation of the words of his
rubber based on what he knows before his
preconceived notions and paradigms
remain the defining containers that
qualify and reveal and explain all the
words in other words they have to fit
into my filing cabinet I have a filing
cabinet the filing cabinet has
developed over 20 30 40 50 60 70 100
years and the words I'm here I'm here
I'm in and I listen even to words that I
don't understand but I'm going to
approach it based on everything I know
from before and that's how I will absorb
the new ideas for Lehane logy Allah -
rabbi call kar ke my mission math
Assad's my macaulay the eyes of a coid
mem rewrites allay the deviator by LP
Cavanaugh's rabbi beloved and therefore
he will be successful but he will never
reach an understanding and awareness in
the words of his teacher like the other
student who's ready to strip himself
from all the knowledge that he has
before and is actually trying to tune in
to what his Rebbe is saying not his
appreciation understanding events but
apparently sometimes it does sometimes
it does it does not allow me to really
really tune in to a whole new
perspective which means there is growth
that's incremental right I know
something today you'll add something new
and then on the contrary like you said I
want to bring everything I know to the
table but sometimes there's a truth that
what's the Washington tehilim could you
pass that Center please but Latonya says
it says in - he'll mm hey
shimmy Vassily Eva had a snake listen my
daughter look and happy ah snake bring
your ear over incline your ear very good
happy isn't it fishy fishy I'm a whole
base of it and forget about your nation
and the house of your father the use of
hemella - so the King can crave your
beauty mmm hey what's this vicinity
America base of it the use of a malady
of it
the truth is it's what I've sometimes
avram let's look at my odds of Montcalm
base official artist Eric now this is a
very deep idea and frankly this is not
an easy idea what he's saying we're not
talking here about a guy who's an addict
and he's drinking alcohol every night
for three four hours and gambling and
then on the web for the net worth of the
night and he telling him that as long as
you're gonna continue this lifestyle
you're gonna destroy yourself you really
have to go cold turkey and abstain over
there it's very hard to argue I mean
unless you're an addict you're not gonna
argue with this right everybody
understands that then even if you're an
art addict you probably can't really
argue with it if you're if you're being
honest which is of course hard for an
addict but here we're talking about a
completely different idea it's rooted in
the same idea and that is this Talmud
everything is good he's a real student
he's a real real student and as a real
student his mind is filled with with
with wonderful information but that's
what ms is what truth demands is that
ability to be able to allow every
paradigm in me to be challenged to open
myself up completely and that's why I
call it masseur I called it mysterious
nefesh Sur sniffers doesn't always mean
you sacrificing your life physically but
sometimes mental mysterious nephesh is
very very intense it's very powerful
can I truly truly step away from all of
my paradigms and preconceived notions
and open myself up to something new it's
not hard it's very hard you know why it
means a certain admission that
everything I built up really now has to
be moved to the side for a whole new
reality for an unprecedented reality in
life this is a very difficult thing to
do sometimes you could see it with
parents and children if I have been
relating to my children a certain way
and at some point a person realizes they
made a very big mistake the greatest
resistance comes from the fact could one
admit that 20 30 years have been based
on my insecurities my traumas
maybe my good intentions but I was
clueless I was ignorant it's too hard
I'm gonna
fight I'm gonna fight till the last
moment and even if I hear new things
great but as long as they fit in to the
filing cabinet I have no problem if it's
a good part and I could put it somewhere
in but I have to find the place in the
brain for it and if I have no place what
do I do
I say the guy's a lunatic the guy's an
extremist guys are not precarious the
guy is a weirdo
we have all these words to be able to
allow ourselves to remain safe right if
what uh yeah I'm a Shia if I could find
the place in the file for it I'm good
I'm good
but even if I don't understand it yet
I'm tuned in I'm not so selective I'll
listen but I take it from where I was in
other words I'm ready to listen to you
as long as it fits into my previous
paradigms that's a wonderful he's a
wonderful person but it'll calm it he'll
never be a real Talmud he'll never be a
Talmud move it was a sentiment mover
time with moving means all I want is
truth I want the truth of my teacher I
want the truth I want the real real real
unadulterated raw truth whatever its
consequences and if that means I have to
look in the mirror and say hmm whatever
I have to say that's fine even though
that's painful maybe a lot of tears in
that that's what a clay rake honest Clay
Aiken is not a small thing that's what
I'm not sure such small Simmons I know
cuz that's mostly means to take my
entire at smears and unlocker such
moosie is I carve out an empty space on
a complete emptiness there's an old
seditious Hasidic interpretation is a
missionary hagigah calum hanok marimba
Tahara see recent viola coitus literally
it means
calum vessels hani gomorian when they
were completed when the the silversmith
or the blacksmith or the goldsmith
completed their development in purity
because a Kayle utensil could be
susceptible to Toma but only after it's
complete when you're still making a pot
it's not the cobble Toma only when it's
done and it's worthy to use it can be
macabre Toma because averse
was not susceptible Demong till a person
actually can use it or uses it until
it's complete if I'm still a middle of I
still have to put the the handle or I
still want to make a design even though
it looks completed that Makabe told me
right if a dead mouse falls into it it's
not Makabe to me
so Calum on a gomorian but I read the
Mishna says if I finish it and I
finished it with purity to it some TV
liliquoi - if you want to put a carbon
inside you have to put it in the mikveh
why why did Allah so literally it means
because for carbon as they were so
strict than it should be pure that even
though I decided to finish in and I
finish it with purity I was made sure I
was pure so my contact with it was pure
but for carbon is it still needs to go
to the mikveh Richlands villa with koi -
there's a there's a homolytic Alinta
predation Calum on the gomorian Bottari
when somebody feels that he's a Kaylie
Gummer he's uh he's a complete Kaylie
and he's a pure Kaylie sitteth vanilla
kinda sure if he wants to absorb koi
fish
he needs to be submerged himself
completely you know when you submerged
under the water at that moment you loot
like a person under the water you can't
live it's a certain heavy psychic is
it's a certain interruption of life even
though we're talking here about a Kaylie
but the concept of Sevilla means a new
bird sees the person coming out of the
mikveh is like a transformation you need
a new transformation lacroix - sometimes
this is where that becomes tricky if the
Talmud wasn't ripe if he wasn't nickimja
Bottari if he wasn't a real Talmud it's
not so easy this dismiss my old
paradigms but if I was a good Talmud so
my paradigm seems so beautiful my
paradigms seem so educated so now to be
able to become an empty vessel becomes
much more difficult sometimes you have a
person you speak to them they confess
ignorance inside in other words they
know I don't know anything I'm a blank
slate right that Leisha Pandava says do
Suva al-najjar rubbish I'm a blank fresh
piece of papyrus or or paper uh-huh
papyrus yeah it's the one statement that
Kazaa bring from Alicia Bonneville yeah
right in picki of asparagus omelet
Alicia said hello immaterial Ahmad
I'm teaching to Toyota to a to a child
is like what is like Inc written on
fresh paper but hollow mater is arcane
if you only learning terror as an old
man then it's deoksu var Miami hook you
know that piece of paper was written and
erased and it written and erased and
erased and arranged and now you get a
couple of letters on it but it's it's
not fresh there's one so if I bring in
Shabbos so the Obama never said what's
the message what is he trying to say was
he trying to say it's a nice thing to
say teach terror to your child as a
child but what happens if nobody talked
to me as a child so what is he trying to
say never your toy is a is a fact it's
not really gonna go in like what's the
state what is he trying to say it's a
good thing to say to teach terror to a
child learn tired as a child so that's
what you should say but he says no I'll
a matter is a kid is this an encouraging
statement somebody didn't have asked us
to learn tried until 40 till 50 ttles
had the catcher the caches don't get for
their father tennis Coaches get what's
this Jew a Jew didn't have the
opportunity to learn trying to till he
was 60 years old so he's learning
prickly ovis and basically the message
is it's erased paper you wasting your
time because nothing is gonna get
absorbed besides the fact you really
need prickly of us for this everybody
knows what you learn at three years old
you remember for life and what you learn
at 61 you forget a few seconds later
present company excluded we all know
what children are capable of learning
you know how many languages you can
teach a child I mean we dumb them down
usually but you know what children
children are fertile wet sponges they
could learn everything you don't need a
mission in prickly office for this this
is everybody knows this once you hit a
certain age comes AK that I and it takes
a very long time it's not so easy so the
rabbit said Alicia Pandava was actually
saying something very profound at any
age he's talking about any age at any
age you could learn Toyota as a child or
you could learn Toyota as an old person
even when you're 80 is all
you could learn trade as a child you can
I tell you as a sucker that's what he's
saying
he's not trying to discourage people who
never had an opportunity to learn he's
trying to create a paradigm of how you
learn it's two different ways of
learning Who I am at the highest of our
climate Toyota's okay huh you see he's
been learning this mission and it was a
discouraging Mishnah because the whole
life ah at what age did you come to
start learning Toyota very good kid you
were listening you were listening to eat
that car there's no sermon about sugar
yesterday say but call you me obey knock
adoption it's an attitude in other words
really a clean slate to be a clean slate
but how do I even become a clean slate
in other words me telling myself that
I'm a clean slate maybe part of the
problem because that itself I come I'm a
clean slate because I am a clean slate
this is where a person often needs to
allow themselves to be challenged and
when I'm uncomfortable with something
when I find myself resisting and
uncomfortable so I have to ask myself
very deeply is this resistance actually
an invitation to be able to let go over
the old and open to the new and now
you're telling him forget yeah yeah yeah
because the paradigms that were guiding
your way of understanding the world that
allowed you to understand the previous
year will become the greatest
interference and static to understand
the new shape which is the reason that
your ever had to interrupt this year he
also had to interrupt it why because he
himself needed a new experience he
couldn't continue winging it he himself
had to depart from the old to get the
new so you think you don't have to
depart from the old to get to know but
here's what becomes tricky
yesterday's redemption becomes today's
exile yes
today's expansiveness becomes today's
trap yesterday's awareness becomes the
greatest static for a new level of
awareness and at some person up at some
like stage in life a person is inclined
to say enough enough I've already gone I
already went to my therapies
I already got out of all my stuff enough
I graduated Oh a loose ship novel you
says you graduated that's the beginning
of the end if you graduated finds
Guevara now suckin on out to eat now you
could say goodbye you could say Kaddish
on yourself Immanuel from Atlanta
Atlanta ah on one level that's
exhausting if you're arrogant if you're
humble it's the most refreshing thing in
the world if I'm arrogant it's very
exhausting because my arrogance has
always challenged by it but if life is
become humble if life is about truth and
openness to truth then it's the most
refreshing thing in the world because it
allows myself or it allows myself for
newness real real real newness and and
you know very often in life it's a real
question you have to ask yourself am i
really really open to something
completely new so if I was involved in
some and nourished Gaytan and nonsense
my whole life of course I'm open to
something new but here's where the
challenges I wasn't I was listening to
good things my whole life and I thought
I was mama SH barking up the right tree
and then to say but now it's time to be
able to transcend yourself and to be
able to discover something there's
something much much deeper but if you
want to get that you could get it on
your terms but on your terms will never
be on its terms on your terms means you
know it works for you or what we call
it's a good part
it's a good word that fits into the
whole roster was a roster of roster of
vet Locke you know so I have another
vort another vort another she and
another four or I can allow myself to be
transformed by the information and to be
transformed requires a tremendous
sense of humility that is very very deep
do you understand what I'm saying
revise it the first test you understand
how hard it is is that why people resist
it I'll fight against this people its
professing failure and by the way even
if consciously you say no of course I'm
talking subconsciously I'm not talking
consciously consciously you're a good
guy you say of course I want to hear but
subconsciously I will kill I will kill
every new insight I will make sure to
somehow make it work with my system you
want to really to say that I should
become a a new person you want me now to
be a one-year-old child yeah a
one-year-old child a one-year-old child
you know that one-year-old child we we
were doing that meditation right who
looks at the raisin and doesn't know
what it is can I do that can I look at
this like for for 40 minutes you know
like the baby in the crib and turn it
around and say this is a waste of time I
know what it is if you think it's a
waste of time you're stuck so wait I
know what it is I know what it is really
you know what it is okay if you know
what it is then that's what you're gonna
stay you'll know what it is and the
whole world you'll know what it is and
everything will fit into that if I could
say I know I know nothing I'm starting
I'm a hollow material at this is my
mission a clean slate teach me teach me
truth teach me life be open this is the
uniqueness of a child this is it's the
curiosity it's the inquisitiveness most
importantly it's the humility it's not
distorting information based on previous
paradigms now let's face it the greatest
source of distortion our inner traumas
and inner dispositions because we relate
to the world from certain glasses I put
on these glasses I never take them off
these glasses I take off but there's
deeper glasses I don't take off and
everything I see through these glasses
now sometimes a person went through a
transformation in their life
my father will mention the ball truth
about children went through a major
transformation in his or her life and
that's a unique transformation that an F
of B so to speak did not have to go
through that transformation so if I went
through and
ffs bees if we animate I don't like
those words but even somebody who had to
work on themselves and grew to a
particular place here in a way and take
this take this with sensitivity the
danger becomes worse the danger is
expansion ah Kelly hi Nick my Bottari
there's so much so much perfection it is
so much good in a way you become the
worst clipper I don't mean you I mean
you understand why right because it's
like it's you become a real Chell a real
HUS because you have so much to back it
you have so much opium you have so much
religion behind you you know you have
quotes as as long as you don't have
quotes - bah as long as you don't have
quotes to support your your your
stuckness so you're pretty good the
moment to have quotes and sources
improves but he said but that one said
this was but but but but but so I could
remain so powerfully stuck in my own
quagmire which actually may work and
that's what he says the student will
absorb everything but only on his terms
you can't compare to somebody else who's
really tuned in to what the emesis what
the truth is not as yeah even if it's
not but it's going to be the das that he
molds and he this and which is nice it's
nice but it's not the truth of the idea
and this is yeah of course of course of
course of course a teacher will never
inspire this in the student if he's not
challenging himself on the same level
he has to be ready to reinvent himself
in fact this is what happened in this
story because he was giving a beautiful
shear everything was dandy but then he
realized that there's something
completely different than he had to grow
silent which is not easy for him he
himself had to forget himself and his
connection so if he's not open to it
this he'll not be he will not inspire
that in the student you know there's no
such a thing that
there was once a big mafia and Chabad
his name was of Nissen em enough so he
once said that the lubavitcher rebbe
told him personally he says asthma
asthma Montez for natal med Loughman
moanin from zip wahala parkas calf ym
toppled when you demand something you're
challenging your student in that way you
have to ask of yourself at least double
at least minimum in other words the
challenges of on the same level as
that's not gonna work
cuz if you're the mentor you're on a
higher in a higher place at least double
but it's a very profound idea because
it's not like okay you grow and i'll
remain in the ivory tower
each Island and I'll watch you grow it
doesn't work that way and that's where
the all Trust is lost so so 100%
show what's truth get into the truth as
it moves to I don't know I never heard
of this way of learning that you
describe what bow I don't illumination I
never I don't I don't think it's a Tyne
it's if nobody wants to win nobody but
you know but willingness to say I'm
going to give it a lot you can't come
with it with nothing to do nothing and
then have the same idea of of bringing
everything you know to try to get to the
truth against what this person is
you mean cuz you mean because the
hoverer still won't be impressed why if
the fighting of the the argument in the
have Russa is just because I have to
hold on to my point then what type of
learning is that okay so the ash the ash
Misha Moffett Assad's my bi sir oh man
eeeh masala ki the ice of a coid mem so
this is the first stage in allowing the
student the openness to be able to
ultimately absorb the the new idea if
this doesn't happen the new idea will
never be able to really really commend
how does one even begin to do this how
does one even begin to do this I think
we begin to do this simply by the
knowledge of this fact the knowledge the
awareness of this concept that to allow
myself to be moved in a way that I don't
have to impose my interpretation the
challenge is that how do I even do this
like I'm always going to impose my
interpretation like I'll allow myself to
be moved the way I want to be moved so
how does one really it's like almost
seems like a vicious cycle because my
eye is always there right I'm open to
you based on my openness to you like no
I'm really open yeah I'm really open
based on Who I am like that ability to
really it has to come from a very deep
deep place that can observe how I'm
responding to things that's really I
think where one can begin to get a hold
of this like you really have to go
backstage so to speak go to like a very
deep place in your mind that cannot be
first a source of xug that can observe
how you're responding to it like what am
i doing
what am i what am i doing with this
information I'm manipulating it or am I
not manipulating it
that's the idea of a hundred fasts 100
fasts means that he understood that with
his mind it's too tricky he will not be
able to do it he will not be able to do
because all the information is already
clouded the Bizet de Guevara natal
Madeira shaman
most people wouldn't even understand it
today because yeah because the way we
learned the way we learned today is
mostly fact so what servant I'm with Bob
Lee come here show me another spot
another cash in advance the way that
Miriam learned was there was a derrick
halima doer paradigms of comprehension
that Talmud you saw me and Talmud Bavli
are two different worlds you're like in
a different planet different planet
different rules different way of
thinking it's hard for us to understand
this even so so the process here is a
very profound like in this muscle what
happened the teacher was in a good place
the student was in a good place there
was an intimacy there was communication
there was life being communicated and it
was amazing it was incredible and then
that all came to a brutal end a very
brutal end for the teacher for the
student what really happened is I'm left
with nothing now
the old idea is gone a new idea I have
not and I'm God my teacher is gone
everything is gone if there's no trust
he runs away he runs away that's it I'm
done and you know who tries to say fill
the void other ways if he's a real
student he remains and in that stage
this stage one the plus of the pro Nisa
where there's just concealment
concealment is the new idea just came
into the world a new light came into the
world and that new light is overwhelming
and if the teacher and I remain in the
same paradigm we'll never grasp it and
therefore he moves away from the old
paradigm and I'm left right where was
the expression hanging dry so to speak I
feel that way but really what's
happening is a new a new awareness was
born in the world and if I ever want to
grasp that awareness I have to go
through this stage because if I remain
and the teacher remains in the old stage
this new light will be lost
we call this the light of mushiya the
light of gula the light of a base
emitters right that new light but at
this stage the new light we explained in
the last year very important Friday
sheer whitish above mushiya who was born
that's the new light but that light
comes with a destruction always a
destruction that's very very powerful
and very painful very painful shivered
in attempter is I don't have the new
light yet but I could see that there's a
light I could see it on my teacher that
gives me hope but now I have to open
myself up to the new light so that's a
ready stage B and that openness is going
to require a lot because if I wouldn't
require a lot it's not a new light it's
by part of the old light so you know we
have a the model of a teacher and a
student but the concept is always
existing in life the concept exists in
in so many so many areas in life the
essay I sent out for Shabbos some of you
got it when the cracks show up in your
life it's time to let the new light in
what does that what does that mean
you'll have it for example you'll have
it for example with your relationship
with children sometimes you know that's
a challenge a lot of people have as I
said before you educated your children
you tried hard you're a wonderful father
you're wonderful mother everything is
good suddenly just cracks everywhere
there's cracks everywhere and what am I
left with I'm left with confusion
uncertainty I don't know what's
happening and then sometimes there's
there's darkness there's negativity news
detachment yeah your child somehow
disassociates from you will you find
yourself disassociating from your child
what's happening now most people would
say this is the darkest moment and
there's a good reason for that we call
Tish above the darkest day comes a
citizen says it's the darkest moment
because it's also the brightest moments
that's such a powerful idea it's the
darkest moment there's no denying that
we're not in la-la land but it's because
it's the brightest moment because a new
light just set into the
and because a new light just sent into
the world the old light gotta go the old
clarity gotta go what am I left with
nothing I'm Amish left hanging it's
between one yesh and another yes there's
a complete iron it's the seed that
decomposes in the ground before it can
grow we spoke yesterday right Hazari
rumba dimmable uniaxial that seed has to
go through a major bit Allah gotta be
thrown into the pit and decomposed not
once but many times and what happens in
that decomposition you look at the scene
like never never where where where where
where wait
you give me 70 years or 10 years 5 years
you'll have the most delicious apples
dates and figs for me the point is at
the moment of decomposition
decomposition you left with nothing
you're left with nothing but that's the
moment that's the moment that the seed
opens up itself to a space where it can
become a source of tremendous vegetation
and producing that moment of darkness
that moment of confusion I don't know
what to do there is complete uncertainty
you know why because a new light was
just born and for the new light to be
absorbed the old old light gotta go a
person has this experience I didn't give
this metaphor with children and the
essay but a person has this experience
in a marriage there's a marriage it
seems blissful all is good and suddenly
crack crack crack crack crack crack
crack crack the wall is now falling
apart in the house at one level you
could say it's all over but if you
understand the pen Amir's this may be
the best moment a painful moment but the
best or why the best moment because this
is challenging you to a new light yes
maybe you were living in la-la land in a
very shallow place the same is true your
relationship with Hashem your
relationship with yourself and almost in
every in every area of life in every
single ever take happiness happiness
right it's those those moments of
darkness that can be seen in two ways
it's darkness or there's a new light
that God wants me to have and this new
light means that the old light gotta go
cuz the old light is what's interfering
to the new
it's like the old structure doesn't
allow your house to be an expanded house
so you have to demolish the structure
break down the walls to create space but
breaking down walls is not fun
especially knowing the contractor who
will not rebuild them so fast so it's
always very difficult moment but it's
always the greatest moment what do you
do to hold on during those moments what
do you do what do you do to hold on
that's what Shivan and I come to shiver
than attempt to is I don't know how it's
gonna work but I know it's gonna work I
know that there's a light I see I could
see that there's a light now I have to
open myself up to it yeah when you speak
about restraint - what's your side dish
credit is the new month you can't see
the moon you know why you can't see the
moon because it's actually in closest
proximity to the Sun what allows us to
see light on the moon reflection of the
Sun when is the moon in a perfect
perfect position where there is a
straight line of the Sun the moon and
the earth the moment that there that
there is a what is it called alignment
of the Sun the moon and the earth that's
called the mileage the moon is reborn
and at that moment you'll never see the
moon you'll never see the moon when are
you gonna see the moon when it grows
distance from the Sun starts moving away
from the Sun if you have the Sun here in
the moon here and the earth here so the
moon is facing the Sun completely so the
half of the moon that's receiving light
from the Sun we don't see so that's the
time when the Sun is mama SH giving all
the light to the moon it's in its
closest proximity from the whole month
the fifteenth of the month when there is
the most light it's the farthest away
the fifteenth of the month the Sun is
here the earth is here and the moon is
here so we get a perfect image of the
Sun there's of the moon Rashied ish
right we call my little Ivana you don't
see it why don't you see it because it's
reflecting the Sun it's like reborn it's
completely in touch with the Sun what
does it look to me like
darkness when it moves away from the Sun
when I guess this is suddenly I have the
light isn't that a funny thing
yes ah with your own son as well yeah
it's interesting how Jewish months work
the numbers go up tests evolve 15 the
moon eclipses a wanes but the numbers
still go up design you design your class
your tests right all the way up you
would think that it should start going
down because when we goes up it really
means it's more but it's not really more
it's less it's following the moon but
the truth is what do you mean by more
and less it's really going up the moon
is becoming smaller and Y's are becoming
smaller it's becoming smaller because
it's getting closer to the source and
whenever it gets closer to the source
the old light is being diminished so if
I remain removed from the source I have
amazing light when I get closer to the
source the light gets more and more and
more diminished ah yeah I'm waiting for
the new reborn birth the Moylan rebirth
means I'm becoming a child again and how
do I become a child I become smaller and
smaller have less light and less light
because I'm experiencing more of the
source and because it's more the source
therefore my light is being diminished
ah and then in that moment of rebirth
you don't see the moon you don't see the
moon at all and then when it moves away
you could start seeing the light so in
terms of the light of the Moon it's
getting diminished in terms of the
relationship with the source it's
getting more and closer and closer and
closer so whenever there's a new light
the light from the source the old light
is diminished and the more it's
diminished the more there's a new light
like this teacher the more his
absorption of the new light the less the
communication and the communication
wanes and it gets less less and less and
less until it disappears why did it
disappear this is the moment of rebirth
this is the moment of the Moya the
reason the light disappeared
he stopped talking to me is why because
he just got the new light
till now he didn't get the new light
completely just had an intuition of it
so he could continue teaching in other
words he could still reflect light he
could still be the moon the moment when
he gets the real light we call it a
mullet
the mullet he's perfectly aligned with
the Sun what happens he grows dark I see
nothing nothing nothing nothing it's the
worst moment and it's the best moment it
was the best of times and the worst of
times and it's exactly the same thing
the worst time was the worst of times
was the best of times but at this point
I don't feel that all I see is a dark
moon I don't see anything so I'm left in
the darkness why am i left in the
darkness because the moon just absorbed
a completely new light and the moon
wants to give it to me
but not yet so at this moment I'm left
with nothing all I'm left is with cracks
cracks cracks confusion uncertainty a
lot a lot of pain however if I trust and
I stay with the program and I stick it
out and I invest in the process what
happens is I open myself up to a new
life gevalt and when you open myself up
to a new light everything has changed
forever very good
hello materially delimiter is archaic
the hest ah people come to a shear right
they're often cynical they heard
everything should I'll get what are you
gonna teach me rabbi why way what are
you gonna teach me no watch'n of some
soy you guys miss organ not about
Phineas mimosa no covered from the brisk
area of mahabharata medina hi I'm Claire
Carver's guys - Michigan right we shut
down we become old we become old
negotiate Aaron you're in the barn what
happened
you may didn't even make one comment
today you didn't even make one comment
today it's a fish much more double
triple ten times that's not even close
that ever once told one of the
secretaries told me he said before I say
I asked anything from the oil um I first
think to myself if they're capable of
doing fifty percent of what I asked for
and then I speak about it yeah not even
a hundred percent first I think many
times over of they're capable of
absorbing and doing fifty percent of
what I asked
so one step missing Amina was for
bringing and he said how many things
were we not so at to hear from than ever
because he thought that people won't
even do 50 percent suck Austin's
response how many things that we lose
out because we didn't think we're ready
even 50% of the process a new slate
doesn't mean I take a sledgehammer and I
knock my brain out a new slate is it's
an inner place you understand it's not
you can't force it it's okay now I have
a new slate what do I do a new slate is
just a complete commitment and readiness
a lot of us are not
that's why that's why your question was
very deep because of the teacher is not
ready to do that to himself he will lose
the student the first one to do it has
to be the teacher and in the end maybe
that is what makes him the greatest
teacher that he's ready to do this more
than the student what what what allows
them to be a teacher what puts them in
the position of a teacher that he's the
first one ready to say I'll change
everything if not then it's a joke then
it becomes a mockery becomes a mockery
then he becomes the greatest
interference but this is very true
you're saying students our children come
with with new ideas fresh ideas powerful
new ideas whether in science or physics
or psychology and all the teacher can
say is our garbage nonsense just and
then they ah
spirituality oh so I just you know just
just follow me and it's like so one of
two things happens either they have to
numb a certain part of their creativity
in order to belong at least your kids
don't do it some kids do it
unfortunately or they have to detach
like there's no trust anymore
Deb is riotta FASTA katate
effort em sighs uh knocking let
themselves alloy material yelets
I'll ask a question
I've given serum for many years there's
two types of people that come there's
people that don't come okay
there's people that donors people that
come you know that's to try it out how
entertaining is rabbi why why somebody
tells me says I try to listen every day
but there's not enough jokes and that's
it's fine okay yesterday I finished the
shear whatever was an hour and half two
hours I leave somebody says thank you
for the entertainment okay fine your
jokes are funny even at 1.5 thank you
thank you but there's two types of
people who come and listen one person I
see is is their life changes from the
ideas from the truth their life they're
just transformed and they like every day
that they're mesmerized by the
information like with the open mouth so
to speak and others can't get to that
space not they don't they just it's not
there it's like you know it's nice it's
good I'm I like it it's good stuff
what's the difference between the two
another one is more or less intelligent
than the other they're both very
intelligent four wonders mom-ish a
transformation yeah mama there's a few
people who sit or listen virtually I get
messages from them it's like it's like
oxygen it's they allow the power of the
ideas to penetrate them and remake them
constantly and others don't
it's a very it's it's a very powerful
idea the house was a joke huh I see him
yesterday was and closed eyes
he teaches his father
Hannam cardassia's ball the but
it's a fascinating thing you can't force
this on somebody you can say allow the
material to reinvent you I can you can't
tell it to somebody because if it's
coming from somebody else it's not
reinventing it's a very deep deep
process it's really allowing truth
allowing ain't safe to reinvent you Wow
that's it's amazing and once and once
that happens it never stops because
infinity will not stop reinventing you
because if it does it's not infinite
right if there's a certain point we're
okay this is it then that means I just
closed off I just I just closed down
that's why you know real people the
older they get the more they grow the
more they touch truth the more the
transformation it's a fast that usually
we've we know formidable years 10 years
or young adult years but by the real
real people the transformation between
70 and 80 it's hard to understand this
and it's very few in generation or the
generation turn eighteen 70 and 80 is
greater than the transformation between
10 and 30 and it wouldn't make sense 70
you dog retired right time for the inner
clock for the or 8 o'clock no no no if
it's infinity it's the other way around
the more the more and transformation
I'm not 70 yet but that's what they say
rabble its Minh comes every day with a
fresh slate he doesn't comes every day
Hacha
thank God you have a lot of questions
today could have been much worse you
could have said today I have no
questions that would have been a death
sentence on this year somebody who's not
shrit isn't it good they're not shriek
hurt if like everything is good I told
you the worst compliment I knew the two
worst things I hear after a shear is
good Vaart or it's similar to what I
heard Shabbos sellers shudders somebody
said it trouble should this observe art
on the parsha why this and I okay that
sentence filing cabinets just put it in
same idea for me it's a bit scary the
more I know challenging Yosef das Joseph
Marcos Yosef das Joseph Marcus
agony slow mama Luke says the more
perception the more mock off from the
word cave the more pain the more
acuteness the more acute awareness the
more the new light a curveball is a new
light always a new light it's a very
powerful idea that when you're facing a
moment of uncertainty and confusion and
everything you knew is not working it
means that he just gave you a new light
it's it's such a powerful idea
everything I know is not working it's
because there's a new light that just
came in and the no our new light can
only
many of the old light gets I don't know
if you can explain it to kids you can
live it you can live it and the children
will absorb it you can live it that the
teen years it's always dramatic the teen
years you know they have to say goodbye
to being a child they're not adults yet
and it's like we are my and I don't know
who I am and at that moment you gotta
just hold on very tight you can't figure
it all out you just got a whole second
rollercoaster you got a foot on a seat
belt and hold on tight and don't run
away that's what we spoke yesterday by
your mind you don't run away you know
where I wasn't planning to read that
poem wish I was not planning to as I was
giving this year and I was speaking
about people who go through challenge
and their own tissue buff I realized
maybe I should read it and then I had a
conflict in my mind is it too vulnerable
am i disclosing information I shouldn't
disclose person wrote me a private email
they didn't ask me to publicize it they
didn't even think I would so in my mind
just a man a second yes no no yes it's
inappropriate is it really appropriate
for a Shearer it's not nice you know
this is dark stuff and then I thought
you know what a lot of videos on Tish
above a lot of programs on tisha buff I
know nobody's gonna do this and this
this this isn't this needs a weirdness
just people should understand what
people are going through and I decided
I'm doing it I'm doing it I'm doing it
I'm saying it but then when I looked at
the crowd I knew immediately that there
are people who like stop with this drama
please
I lost my fist I lost my this and lost -
just as we say grow up and move on so
that's why I said I know that there's
people who are thinking think I'm
dramatic and the writer is dramatic and
I want to tell you he's not even being
as dramatic as he should be because of
what he's going through
cuz I myself was clueless
and you saw it shre it a very powerful
electricity there was like a a hush and
the crowd I mean whoever was their sort
right there was a it was like there was
level there's levels there's levels of
electricity on the hook I probably
couldn't hear it on the under videos but
it was very intense Shauna's real it was
intense
yeah hush mouth okay there was like a
Helen custard in shock okay I didn't
prepare a try I was to check the email I
was hoping that the email I didn't like
archive it or this it was there so I got
it because I I knew I didn't I wasn't my
parents I didn't have it ready but I
want you to know that the writer over
the email and he sent it last night the
night of tissue birth and he said that I
was watching on YouTube and the amount
of physic the amount of strength and
inspiration of validation I received he
said was incredible I would never
imagine that you would reach it to think
I sent it to you I would never imagine
that you would read this in public and
and he was just like he was he was like
boy you know very very emotional and
then he you know he thanked me for the
words afterwards I said that it's a seed
and you're gonna you're gonna become a
tree and I realized just for that just
for that yeah but I didn't know that I
wouldn't know that he was I guess so I
guess so yeah yeah yeah and and similar
people so he wasn't there but he told me
that he he he watched it on YouTube it's
sharing with you so I knew that moment
that it was was the right thing to do
and then he said what I was really
impressed is that you said that I was
not as dramatic as I should have
I won that how does he know that because
it's true
I didn't write all my pain I didn't
write what I was experiencing I was
minimizing and even though it was pretty
dramatic but I was minimal she said that
I was shocked by he more than anything
else how did you know that he said it
was so true
and the validation he received he never
received such validation because his
family you know the Smiths Ted and
everybody dismissed it and he went
through a lot tremendous difficulties it
was the right choice just for just for
that there was the right choice
especially that there's other people
plenty of other people okay let's let's
move on with purifying ourselves the
gyrus similarly you know the my son I
