A few small steps to hasten the coming of Mashiach - Rabbi Alon Anava

[Music] we're going to talk about today probably the most important topic that we need to learn about which of course is the coming of mashiach and there's no question that mashiach is here and there's no question that any second the redemption is coming and i know people have been saying that already for a while but now is really the time and uh i don't want to spend our time i don't want to say waste our time because it's never a waste but i don't want to spend our time now on proofs and sources and how do we know and why now is the time that there's enough enough information uh enough information online that you can find all the resources and all the information why now is the most suspicious time besides that you just have to open your eyes and you see that you see that the world has already reached a dead end and so many different prophecies that we have you see them happening literally right in front of your eyes and in the last two three years i gave a lot of lectures with a lot of different sources i have a book with a lot of sources how do we know that now is the time and we're actually very late the time for mashiach to come was already a few years ago the the specific time now we're really very very late and i think the reason why we're late is because just hashem is very nice to us and he says i'll give you another chance to do chuva because if you don't do chuva mashiach is going to come in such a destructive way that i don't know how many will survive so hashem is being so kind to us and he's saying i'll give you another day to to think about what you're doing do chuva so the redemption can come smooth and but i i know that at some point president shem was also going to run out of patience and we know based on our sages that there are two ways how the redemption can come one of them is called berita in its time there's a set date and this date already passed and another option is very sena and i will make it come faster since the due date is already passed so we already of course uh kind of missed the opportunity of the christian and i'll bring it much faster so now we're really running on the on the last few fumes on the gas tank and the reason the reason why at some point hashem is going to run out of patience because it's almost like a pregnant woman that the baby has to come out and okay they can be late a day two days a week but at some point it has to come out and we're really running on our last few moments of the options of mashiach coming i gave a lecture a few months ago about the war that's going to happen before mashir comes which is called goku magog they gave a whole long lecture with all the sources all the information everything that we need to know about this war which you don't have to uh be such a genius the war is 30 kilometers from here it started in 2012. and you had the the pleasure of hearing two nights ago the the jets flying all night so what you see on cnn and fox and abc this is not the real news as the president of the united states keeps saying fake news they don't show you really what's going on what's going on is there's a whole war going on 30 kilometers from here in the land of syria and the russian army is there and the american army is there and the chinese army is there and the iran army is there and the israeli armies everybody's there just nobody's telling you about it because in other places they'll allow press to come in they don't allow press to come in so nobody knows really what's going on what's very interesting is that we do know that there's going to be a big war before mashira comes that big war already started in 2012 and not only that everywhere you look in the world is a war and there is a prophecy made by rabishimon baryokai that and this is not uh found in the zoil this is found in a book called and he says there is for you a sign when you want to know when mashiach is coming and he says that there's going to be a very large war next to and he gives the destruction where how and what and then it says when you see the ruler of the messick fall that's when the redeemer will come now the mystic is damascus damascus is the capital of syria okay so that's already a pretty strong hint the war close to that many nations are going to be fighting there but then another strong detail that the the rule of the messick i mean that's where the war is in damascus but then he gives even a more amazing detail he gives the name of the ruler of the messick and he doesn't say assad but he calls him niron mizrahi niron okay we don't know anyone called niron mizrahi but if you make the calculation of the numerical value of the name on mizrahi is 571 what's called the gematria the numerical value who's the ruler of domestic right now damascus is 571. so and he says whenever he's going to fall down that's when the redeemer is going to come so you see now that the whole world is fighting and it's all around the the war in syria the war is much much bigger than what people think there's a nuclear submarines on the coast of syria park there russian nuclear submarines american aircraft carriers it just takes the first cuckoo to to launch the wrong missile and and and that's it but i don't want to talk about the war and all that i'm just trying to paint the picture that a lot of people understand and they know mashiach is coming any second most people don't if people would understand that then maybe they would act in a different way but i'm saying acting a different way not necessarily in regards to what we're going to talk about today rather people still are planning 20 years forward 30 years forward i'm going to start now a business i'll go do this i'll do that i'm talking about is coming any day you're thinking of starting a business now so but nevertheless it's a very broad topic with a lot of information and i highly suggest to any person to look more into it and to learn a lot because this is what's happening and if mashiach is coming in three days hospital should be today but if it's coming in three days then all your plans for the future are irrelevant what's important is how am i getting myself ready for the redemption how am i getting myself ready to be included in it now take just one example out of many we know a famous story in the torah but noah at the time of noah everyone was sitting there the land was corrupt people were corrupt and hashem said i had it up to here and i'm going to destroy this place and he gave a very long countdown 120 years 120 years countdown that nook is standing there and building a massive structure the ark and not only that he is advertising on his facebook group uh that hashem is going to well he didn't have facebook i think he didn't get like a joke but uh he was advertising the machine that there's going to be a flood and nobody believed him now can you imagine if somebody believed him then that somebody would say wait a minute maybe this guy is right let me build my own little ark but obviously nobody believed him now before the flood started it was raining and still nobody believed him then the rain became stronger still nobody believed him just imagine there was one person that believed and says you know what let me prepare a little boat or something so same thing here mashiach is coming you need to prepare yourself a little arc before it's coming how it's coming when but you have to prepare yourself a little arc now in our days our ark we don't need our made out of wood but the word ark in hebrew is teva and teva in hebrew that means a word and it's all about the words that's the art that we need to prepare ourselves because when the flood is going to come hashem says i'm not going to destroy the world again with a flood that's what he added a little a few words he says yeah i don't know i'm not going to destroy the world again with a flood with other methods i will do it if i want to or if i need to and we talked about it yesterday in order to have a new beginning an era of mashiach will have to be a destruction of the old old state doesn't matter how mushyk is going to come there's going to have to be a destruction because when you want to build a beautiful home on a old land you have to destroy everything that's on this land the old house the whole structure then you start rebuilding so either way you're looking at it we're going to have to have some type of a state of destruction and then we're going to be able to have a rebirth and a new beginning so to go straight to the point just to summarize there's no question that mashiach is around the corner the reality is that mushrik is already here because if moshe has to come tonight it has to be a human being over 13 years of age to ready to take over so mashiach is already here where exactly i don't know i don't think anybody knows does he know i don't know maybe he does maybe he doesn't the prophet says ishayao says that the spirit of hashem will dwell on him maybe he is a simple man now i don't know where and all it takes is a little bit of a war recordish and he wakes up and gets gets his act i don't know we don't know exactly but the fact is that we all we're ready everything is ready for the redemption everything is laid out everything is prepared and hashem has prepared all options however the redemption will come the redemption should come smooth no problem we have all the tools if it should come with a war everything is prepared all you need is this and that there's many other ways how the redemption can come in many other types of ways hashem can bring the world to its knees and we just need to be prepared the whole point is how you're preparing yourself and if you are included i gave a lecture a few months ago you can find it online where i'm explaining about the the last war that's going to happen what is this war where it's going to happen who's going to survive and so forth i highly recommend to go see this lecture because it has a lot of information a lot of details and many many sources where i start the lecture by saying that 250 years ago the gun from vilna predicted that the last war before mashiach is going to come is going to take 12 minutes now how can a man 250 years ago when there's no satellites there's no nuclear bombs there's no missiles there's no nothing that we have now can predict that the world war will take 12 minutes and what type of a war can take 12 minutes only a nuclear war a few missiles here and there and you clean the land and i given that lecture a lot of information how two-thirds of the world will not survive and one one third will survive which still is a very large amount of people that's still over two and a half billion people the question is is not how when what the question is who who is going to be included in the redemption who's going to be part of the people who are surviving and not only that who's going to be the one who's going to be included in participating in hasting the redemption because at the end of the day once everything is over then we're all going to have a private meeting with the king and the king of course mashiach is going to thank certain individuals thank you for bringing the redemption thank you for doing mitzvot thank you for following the torah thank you thank you for helping other people so the point is that we want to make sure that it's coming faster mainly smoother and that i'm part of it can you imagine missing the party so i don't want to miss the party so when i said before that the first time that hashem wanted to destroy the world he destroyed the world with the flood noah survived nobody believed him because he kept saying there's a flood coming there's a flood coming there's a flood coming nobody believed what did he prepare he prepared an ark there's not uh there's it's not a coincidence that he prepared an ark and why it was prepared a certain way but like i told you the word ark in hebrew is in hebrew is is a box but eva is also a word and we're now in a very interesting period where we're reading the torah cern parashot and tuesday when we had the class about the parashah i explained that we're going into a series of parashot that they all have a common denominator and all these parashots are about this week's parashat is the parasha of the spies sherlach where the spies go and they talk latino rabbi israel next week we're going to read about korach talk so about the following week parashat biryam is talking about following week we have balak balak and bilaam they're talking about the of about the nation of israel you see here systematically now very interestingly that the the torah the the way it's divided so the first book be rasheed it's the history of the creation of the world shemot is being in egypt and going out of egypt is mainly all the laws especially when it comes to sacrifices and the tabernacle but is the the so to say the soap opera of the desert what did they do in the desert for 40 years what was their schedule did they wake up in the morning and go to i don't know what to school to where did they learn to ram and we know they learned a lot what happened in the desert for 40 years so sephiroth is kind of a synopsis of what was going on can you imagine three million people living in the desert and something has to happen there so what do we see now that the the majority of what happened there with having moshe rabeno that the focus what the torah is telling us was constantly everybody going slandering each other that's having moshe rabbenu and not only that that's the nation that's the generation that saw the giving of the torah this is not some generation 500 years ago this is the generation that were in mitzrayim saw the miracles of going out of mitram went through the ocean went up to the mountain saw the giving of the torah and still can control their mouth unbelievable and of course now in this week's parasha's then the punishment is that they're not going to go to heaven islam can you imagine the punishment you're going through all the exile of mitzray when you are going to die in the desert and i told you on tuesday this is the only sin that the kaloshma who didn't forgive all the other sins that we did single or as a nation this sin you crossed the line i'm not forgiving you that's what hashem says you're going to be punished including moshe roberto nobody goes into health israel so that's how we see the severity we talked about it on tuesday about talking against the land of israel but we see now a series of the uh chain of events when there's a lot of now if we're focusing on this week's parasha i know in the diaspora it's a different parasha and in israel we're learning but nevertheless the way it worked is that the the spies they went into health israel now really when you're thinking about it about the hutzpah why do you need to go to what look at islam you don't believe that hashem is taking you to the right place you don't believe that hashem is going to make you victorious in the war i mean what let's say hypothetically you come into the land and you find a horrible land but that's the land that hashem told you he's going to give you so what is it going to help if you find something you don't like that's what hashem said that's it why aren't you going and sending spies what's the point you really need to know tactics how to conquer it hashem already proved to us that we won all the other wars against great nations this the davka this war is not going to be successful that's why the torah says says i don't need you to send the spies you want to you send but nevertheless that's besides the point the chutzpah that you are doubting what hashem says so that's already one big lesson don't doubt what hashem says if hashem says something is good for you or something is going to happen okay then you accept it but nevertheless they send the spies the spies go to israel they live on your design better and sorry they live in udalif with tammuz and they come back on tisha b'av is a cursed day every time something bad happens it happens on tisha bell the the the spies came back onto shabbat the tablets were broken onto shabbat so many different things happened on tish about not only the destruction of the temples but nevertheless the sky the spies come back they slander the land i can't even call it they slander the land because it's nothing is nothing is true here and then of course the worst of all happens that they don't go into health israel and they get punished what would happen if they would not say la shannara they came back onto shabbat that's the ninth of valve if they would come back and say the land is perfect everything is good we are ready to go in you know what would happen the next day the tenth of ave they wrap everything up they pack everything up they go on a journey there were three days of a journey into earth islam so the 10th above the 12th above and the 13th of they're on the journey they arrive into a land of israel on the 14th of they conduct the war they conquer earth israel on the 14th of the 15th they build bitter middash moshe rabbenu becomes mashiach and that's it and the story is over and that's the 15th day of what is known as tu b'av that up until today i mean today they're kind of celebrating it as the love day the valentine's day but if you look in the talmud the talmud says the the best days that we ever had for the nation of israel is yomaki purim and tuber in the 15th day of that's the day that we were supposed to go into health israel build better midash get mashiach and finish with the whole thing so what stopped us coming to here at israel and building methamic dash i told you yesterday this little hole in our in our face that is causing all the problems so and then it continues all the all the rest so we have now a whole series of parashots i mean we're very close to you zain better moves the fast of yuzhan betamus and we're very close to shabba i mean this is weeks away from us zain with the museum is in four and a half weeks and after that three weeks later it's tisha b'av so it's time to really think and reflect wait a minute maybe let's see what happened in the past how it's you know we can change something for the future so going back to what i said before the savior of noah was an ark was it was now we don't don't have to build an ark but we definitely have to build the right words that what are we saying i told you teva is a word and the sad reality is that even if you look in our generation there's so much great things going on in our generation thousands and thousands of people are torah observant i don't think there was never so many torah observant people in our nation the amount of torah learning that we have in our generation never has such a thing yeshivot all over the world the internet is flooded with torah every city you'll go you'll find classes of torah rabbis left and right teaching torah all day long anywhere you look that i don't think there was never so much torah in any generation on the side of charity unbelievable what's going on in our world between jews and anjos so much recent is going on billions of dollars are going to charity thousands of organizations all around the world feeding people clothing people helping people so we have on one side torah that we never had so much torah the access to the torah a hundred years ago who had access to torah you know what it is to find a book here now you go online you order any book you want you have it all online so we have on one side so much torah on the other side so much and so much kindness and charity and how can we not bring mashiach how we didn't still weren't able to bring the gula the redemption when we have so much torah and so much kindness and not only that you know that amongst the jews we have so much money we can do almost anything we want yesterday the day before yesterday i made a friend of mine also a great rabbi and he was telling me how they want to initiate a certain thing i don't want to say about it anything yet hopefully it will work out and maybe we can do something but he was telling me how through during pesach he he runs the pesach program and it's a peso program for very wealthy individuals so he said in the synagogue where he was praying the men that were there he says they're all together worth about 60 billion dollars so he says he told these men with all your money we can actually build better mikdash and he was talking to these men these are very wealthy jewish orthodox men not men i'm not talking about now uh a second orthodox jewish man very wealthy and he says all of them together put their wealth together is worth 60 billion dollars you can build better mikdash if you want you can buy any land you want you can do whatever you want we have money if you're thinking about it hypothetically even forget about now miraculously money we have money and now with the the american president trump he would let us probably do whatever we want he's so pro-israel so we even have physically the option of doing things how come nothing happens how can it be that we're still here in exile with all the torah that we have with all the money that we have and with all the crested that we have and we still don't have the redemption doesn't it come up to anybody's head to ask this question why don't we have the redemption what are we missing we already were told i think it was about 30 years ago by the lubavitcher rebbe that we did everything we need to do to to prepare for the redemption now i think i don't you know maybe i'd be saying maybe it's the previous above israeli don't take my word but it's either obamacare area or the previous of our job he says we did everything that we need to do to to to get the redemption something something along the line is all we need to do is uh polish the the the buttons we're all ready so what what is holding the redemption now if you're not asking yourself this every day so who is going to ask where i need everybody to ask every day how come she is not here today is a beautiful sunny day the weather is great the sun is shining the birds are whistling outside the flowers are beautiful why is mashiach not here now you ask yourself this question every day probably not now that should be the question that you asked yourself how come we're not redeemed yet how come we're still in some type of a void of nothing is happening and you see that in most cases nothing is happening we're kind of like still so many people are trying to do these startups and businesses nothing's working everything is kind of like in a on a hold now i'm not talking about now on people's personal lives if you look at your own personal life don't look at other people's lives look at your own personal life there's not one person in our generation right now that doesn't have a turmoil in his life no such a thing a turmoil action i don't know one person that can say unbelievable money is just coming through the windows health is unbelievable my relationship with my wife and kids has never been more amazing i'm surrounded with great people everything is am nobody can say that guarantee everybody has something to complain about either they have financial problems either they have miracle problems either they have health problems either they can get married all of them together everybody has piles of problems piles and i'm saying that from experience not only from looking at people on the outside everybody's smiling everything yeah hashem everything is great but on the inside there's a tornado of emotions and problems and most people don't even know what and how that's the reality and i'm not trying hasta shalom to put anybody down i'm just stating the reality i told you already a couple of times that hashem with having a very large reach online with thousands and thousands and thousands of followers so we have a very large amount of people contacting us on a daily basis we get on an average day around anywhere between 1500 to 3000 messages every day emails whatsapp facebook whatever it is thousands of messages are pouring in a lot of them are just questions what should i do in this what should i do that some point i used to answer most most of the questions now there's no chance for me to answer all these questions so we have two rabbis just answering halacha questions but there's still hundreds of questions of people are pouring in and i can tell you that not even one email is from a person telling i just want to tell you everything is good you know i said that i mentioned that a year ago in a lecture the next day i got an email or somebody said i just wanted to tell you everything is okay so some lady made a joke and i'm sure she was like just in a in a good way saying things are not that great but hashem but the point is that everybody has a hard time right now and doesn't matter how it's coming to some people it's one thing but it's the hardest thing for them to deal with and the sad reality is that we're all juggling from one problem to another problem and i didn't mention all the problems i just said in general finance health relationships and and and and many other little things but why is everybody suffering like that how come nobody can come and say listen life is good now there are people with the right attitude that doesn't matter what happens they say listen it can be better there are people with the right attitude that say listen life is not so easy right now i have a lot of struggles but which is of course the right attitude yeah there's going to be problems but the question is again how come we're like standing still nothing happens how come there's nothing big going on exciting or how come she is not here right now now this is the question you need to ask yourself every day and if you don't ask this question every day then there's a problem because a lot of people come and tell me i have financial problems they tell them pray for me to come i have my financial problems pray for mashiach to come he's going to solve the problems you think a mortgage alone uh reading the lottery will save your problems no pray for mashiach to come and other people say i have miracle problems i have a health problem pray for mashiach is the solution and people don't understand that that is the solution there's not a way out because hashem already designed it in such a way that there's no solution not a president not a a mayor not a prime minister now every two months they're doing uh elections here in israel people think that the the salvation will come from a president or from some peace process there's never going to be peace people don't understand that we don't we the israelis we don't have an issue with the arabs and the palestinians our issue is with hashem not with the palestinians we don't have a problem with them and no not even a question that there's not going to be any type of peace ever with the arabs amongst us and the palestinians there's not going to be such a thing it's a waste of time racial resources it's living in some dream that's one of hashem's tools to put us under pressure and to put us in into a corner our problem is directly with the kadosh solve the problem with hashem we're not going to have a problem with the palestinians so people think that the salvation will come some miraculous way no the only way it's going to come is only moshiach hashem already designed it in such a way that we are cornered only so we can start screaming to mashiach to come it says in the talmud in a few places that at some point before mashiach is going to come the situation will become so bad and then there's a famous quote enlarged we have nobody to count on but our father in heaven everything will become bad look at that at the description in the talmud about the days of mashiach the days before my coming of mashiach reading the the newspaper so now again why is moshir not coming now i don't think i don't have the magic answer by the way i have uh a few ideas but i don't have the magic answer and i don't think anybody has the magic answer but i can see i i just make uh quick calculations i put one plus one and i see if it comes two or three if it comes three then it's not the right answer but if it comes to then that's the right answer and i'm looking at history history always repeats itself and i'm looking what the torah is teaching us and i come to the conclusion that one of the biggest problems there are many i'm not now uh narrowing down to one but one of the biggest problem that is causing the mashiach to be delayed is what i told you yesterday is this little hole in front of our face very interestingly if you're looking at the structure of our face i told you we have two eyes we have two ears we have two nostrils and we have one mouth these are the seven gates to our to our to our body why don't we have two mouths we have two eyes and two ears shalom if we would have two mouths i told you already one will be busy eating the other one will be be easy talking so at least sometimes we have to eat so it's hard to talk while you eat so the mouth takes a break but nevertheless the main problem in our generation is the mouth so the mouth has two directions what goes in into your mouth and what goes out of your mouth what goes into your mouth is very simple it's what you put in your mouth it's food and it's of course i'm talking not only about the kosher food the kosher diet is also the health diet because the majority of our problems our health and emotional problems is coming from the food that we're eating and of course nobody wants to tell you that because the the the food companies they want you to continue buying their junk but the reality is that ninety percent of the food that is on on the supermarket shelves is not really food and people still buying it because it's cheap and it's tasty and there's nothing else but the reality is that 90 and i'm being conservative with saying but most of the food that we eat is not real food and then people don't understand why half this planet is sick 90 of the planet is sick cancer is out of control and and many other lethal diseases and deadly diseases look at what you're eating so that's might not be such an easy thing to change but i can guarantee to you that you start working on your diet and what goes into your mouth you'll see already a massive change in your mouth besides the fact that i'm not only talking about the the kosher department even the kosher department people have to watch what they're eating because many things like i said yesterday they're not really kosher but nevertheless that's one thing that's one problem that's already one thing you have to put on your checklist what goes into my mouth and one of them is like i said kosher the other one is the the health of it and it's not so easy to find healthy food because almost everything is already affected with the with the being affected in some type of a way that it's hard to find even kosher food a healthy food even a lot of the fruit that they tell you it's organic it's not really organic they just put a sticker on it so it will they can sell it for 30 more expensive you know what it means to really have organic food it means you have to to grow it in your own backyard but nevertheless that's one thing that i'm throwing out there you do your own calculation about your own diet and i can guarantee to you that you'll see a massive change in your health and not only your health in your mind and your emotions if you go on a strict healthy kosher diet you'll see a massive change in your life i gave in that lecture to my a few months ago that i told you about the the war i don't even know how it came into the lecture but i was talking about specifically what's going on with also with the with the kosher department and i was giving different examples how the majority of the meat in our generation is not really kosher and we think it's kosher but it's not really kosher just the other day they caught in israel 50 tons you know it's 50 ton 50 tons of meat with kosher stamps on it that was smuggled in from aza 50 tons i don't know if you can imagine what's 50 tons of meat seven trucks full of meat with kosher stamps on it all forged coming from aza camels donkeys horses to big restaurants famous restaurants famous butchers and people just look at a oh there's a there's a stamp okay let's eat why are you jumping so fast on the food so in that lecture i was talking specifically about the meat and i and people were asking he said i don't eat meat unless i slaughtered the animal myself or i know personally the chochet and where the animal came from i thought we don't eat meat why would i want to eat meat when i know that 99 of it is not even kosher i can't even count on it even if there's a doubt so just from and then you know and in that lecture you can go look at the line i said to the public there take my advice go 40 days without meat don't diet i'm not telling you to starve yourself just 40 days don't eat meat and please send me an email or text after 40 days and i can tell you that hundreds of people told me i went on your miracle diet there was not one person that says nothing changed everybody told me i saw massive change in my behavior i'm less angry i'm less agitated i'm less this i'm less flat just by changing one little thing in your diet so and again i don't want to focus just on that i'm just again throwing throwing different details you don't have to go on a diet right now i highly recommend that you go on a healthy kosher diet you would make your own decisions you consult with your own rabbi and you you decide what you do i'm just telling you that this is the problem so what goes into our mouth is the first problem you know the majority of of behavioral problems especially by kids it's not because they have some type of emotional or mental problem it's the food that they eat now of course doctors don't know what to tell you so it's very easy to tag a child and say he has add no he just eats a lot of sugar so his body is like that it's not add put him on a good dart he's going to be a nice calm good boy or girl but the nutrition companies and especially the pharmaceutical companies they don't want you to do that because you are a very good customer if you're buying pills every month why would i want to tell you the truth and that you can heal yourself very fast i want you to buy every month your pills and the pharmaceutical companies it's a gazillion a trillion dollar industry why would they want to tell you that no stop eating sugar stop eating chemicals stop eating food coloring stop eating processed food and white flour and all this you'll be fine no no no keep on eating what you're eating but then come back and buy all the pills that i want to sell you so people have to i mean most people are manipulated and and fooled and most people understand that even our emotional issues our health issues are it's all coming from what i eat i'm telling you go to put it to your test go on a strict diet for a couple weeks you'll see a massive change but the next big problem with this little hole in front of our mouth is what comes out of the mouth which is an epidemic in our generation slandering and that's coming out from the most observant people i'm not talking right now secular people they have no idea even in even the most observant people who learn torah eat kosher observe shabbat dress modest family purity you name it the top of the chart but the junk that's coming out of people's mouth i never seen it such being so bad and there's nobody who's coming and saying stop because this is this is our problem to my my my analogy i mean could be that i'm wrong i'm not a prophet to tell you i'm telling you what i see i see two major problems in our nation that is causing mashiach not to come one of them is all the lashonara and the other one is the disunity that we have between all the jews these are the two things but what causes this this disunity is also stop talking there might be a little bit more unity here so we have two major problems is the unity this uh this is a big one i don't even know how it can be solved we tried so many times to initiate so many different things to change it i told you that few years ago me and a few other rabbits we wanted to make a unity event it was right after a terror attack in france that all the world leaders met and they were all walking like this hand in hand and then i was like hey why don't we do that let's gather like i don't know 100 famous rabbis from all around the world from all walks of life from all different groups one will stand with the streimel you know the furry hat another one will be with a white yamaka another one will be with the hats like this another one like that one will be with a long coat one without the coat all the different types and let's stand all together on one big stage and hold hands and pretend like we like each other and you think it worked have you heard about that event did you see the videos of that event no because we weren't able to pull such an event now we didn't have a problem with a place to do it there's very big places to do such a thing and we didn't have a problem with money there's enough people with money that would support such an event but nobody wanted to participate so there were some people who came straight out and said who's going to be in that event rabbi so-and-so i'm not coming straight out some people were just wanted to be politically correct and nice and said when you have it set then invite me no but we need you to endorse it and we need you to invite and we need you to advertise no no when you get it done call me so we didn't have much people participating in doing what's the big deal putting a few rabbis in a room and and talking about let's be together let's be united and we weren't able to do that and many other situations i i for years already i'm saying what's one of our big problems there's that there's no there's no unity there's no so i had a bold idea of course that also didn't work i was like how how about we invite into one big room a thousand of the top rabbits of the world from all cities all communities all groups a thousand from this group from this group from this group from that group from this country put a thousand of the top rabbis of our generation in one room and tell these rabbis listen guys we all pray for the same god we all put the same feeling in the morning we all observe shabbat we all do the same thing we follow the same torah and we all want mashiach to come we have a serious problem of disunity in our nation how about we now switch students you give me your students i'll give you my students and we start mixing everybody together and we make a large campaign that we all can be together the breast lifter will learn the chabad philosophy the chabad nick will learn the breast of the books the safari will learn the books of the god from vila and the khafichain the ashkenazi will learn the banished high and then we all switch our books and doesn't that sound nice have you heard of that event no you didn't hear about this event i became religious i told you my story yesterday we didn't even finish it 18 years ago i went in my in my course of becoming religious through four different yeshivats i started in a safari yeshiva i went to abrasive yeshiva i went to another shiva teaching and when i every shiva that i went to was amazing what they have to offer is unbelievable the depth the learning the the history the dynasty unbelievable but in every shiva that i went to they prohibited me from learning other stuff if i was in one issue but you can't learn this book why can't i learn this book it's a very good book no no no you can we only learn these books yeah but that book is very very interesting no so anyways i don't want to share my personal experience with many different issues but what's the big problem if i belong to this group and why can't i learn from the teachings of that group what's the big problem they're all beautiful torah and sometimes you see people that their mind is like this no i'm in this group i'm only learning this torah but why can't you learn from that book or from that rabbi you know how amazing that rabbi is no i'm in this group some people their mind is a little more abroad and they learn from other books the kabbalistic term for what i'm just saying now is called katno tamakin and god luta mohin means intellect when a person is very narrow-minded it's called katnuta a person can be genius in the torah genius know the torah inside out be a very very holy individual but can still be in kathmuta limited gadget that how about you teach me a little bit of what you know how many times you go to a place and they tell you we are this group we only teach you that no that would have says me call me i've learned from everybody why can't i learn from this rabbi from this rabbi from this rabbi from this rabbi what's the big deal so when we wanted to do an event like i told you this unity event and and the event of bringing everybody into one we couldn't do anything because you know what in the big event everybody was asking who's going to run the show who's the chairman who's the president who's running who's going to be on the head of the board who's going to be the one who's speaking oh he's speaking i'm not coming why what's wrong with him and you can't even believe that what we were hearing from different these are respectful people oh that guy is going to be there know i'm not i'm you're not going to find me in the same room with this guy so how do you want the redemption to come if you can be in the same room with this guy so we have a serious problem of a split in our in our nation even though a lot of people say what are you talking about there's so much ah no they're not i didn't see that this fake about israel but the real no there's still separation the seal slandering the seal competition and he's better and i'm better and i'm not sitting in it with him in his room and that's pathetic so to change the world you can that's the job of mashiach but you can change yourself i learned a long time ago to change the world is not so easy i can't even think how mashir is going to be able to do that i feel bad for this guy how he's going to what he's going to have to deal with he's going to have to deal with the jews now oh not too long ago i gave i gave a lecture and i said mashiach is coming on a white donkey so he said a joke if you give him a white mercedes maybe he'll come faster by giving him a donkey the problem is with that with the transportation so i think mashiach read the job description he's like oh no no no no so shalom but the point is that we want to take is that on a large scale you can't do much you should and you can try but that's the job for mashiach he's going to come to do the tikkun to really shift it into place but we as an individual and a member of a community can do a lot and a big problem that we have like i told you is the disunity there's no unity amongst amongst the jews and a lot of being judgmental oh he's from that group and i can't stand that group he's from this oh look how he's dressed or are you praying like this are you praying like that it's all nonsense last week i talked about the idea of the tribes why are we separated in the parashat why we have seven branches to the to the menorah because there are seven types of jews there's many different types of jews so it's not only one type there are many different types that's why we see that we are tribes why do we have tribes how come abraham and one son yakov suddenly boom 12 because there's many different types of us and on purpose hashem wants to see how we're getting along with each other so what if you're different than me so what if you pronounce the words different than me or you dress different or you love this rabbi good he's inspiring you good i like this rabbi and this man whoever in this rabbi so we have to make a change in our own little realm because if i don't know how to change in my little realm then it's not going to affect anything outside i have to see how i'm behaving i had a a stop in my journey that i was looking at everybody that guy speaks in show all day long this guy cheats this guy does this this guy i was looking at everybody not realizing and noticing that i'm judging everybody instead of that i turned the the judgment remote to myself and if i would look at somebody and i will notice that he's talking while we're praying instead of saying he's talking all the time i would turn around saying if i see him talking in show must be that i also do that that's the the teachings of the belgian though if you've seen somebody a fault means you have it and you're able to recognize it so instead of judging other people i would right away turn it to me and say if i'm seeing this person dishonest or this person's slandering or this person saying this and that must be that i have that too even in a very refined way the point is that we cannot be judgmental we're not allowed to be judgmental if you want to be judgmental be judgmental to your own acts not somebody else's acts but i do believe that the big problem in our generation right now that is holding the redemption from coming is this little hole in the front of our mouth and what you need to do is to control what goes into the mouth and control what goes out of the mouth mouth i also have many things that i want to say and i know it's not the right time or the right place or maybe it shouldn't be said at all and there's also many things that i want to put into my mouth but i say no i will hold myself i don't need that it's not good for me i look at it that each and every one of us can be the one that brings the redemption we don't need a moshe rabbeno to do that an average individual can be the one who's bringing the meshiach maybe it's your prayer today that will bring the redemption maybe it's your blessing today we don't know if it's done sincere and the right way maybe by me today doing an effort and going to pray with a minion that will be the one that brings the machine i don't know you might be the one now if you internalize it you might be the one then hopefully that will make you change a little bit of your behavior to say may i i can bring the redemption maybe i will be the one because maimonides rambam says that the whole world is tilting on a scale one act of one jew a random jew can tilt the whole scale of the world to kaf's roots to be judged favorably maybe you're the one maybe if today somebody comes and tells you did you hear what so-and-so did i don't want to know even though you died to know what so-and-so did i don't want to know maybe by just this one little act you're the one who's tilting the whole world the reason why i'm constantly saying gossiping and slandering because we see in history how devastating that was and is there are many other sins that we do in our generation there's still idol worship we might not be bowing down to statues but we're bowing down to an iphone into a mercedes and to many other things there's still idolatry in our generation there's many forbidden relations in our generations there's bloodshed there's a lot of big problems going on but i'm looking at history what was the cause for the main main destructions so the first temple was destroyed from idol worship forbidden relations and bloodshed right if you look at most of the halacha scripts you'll see that lashonara is worse than all of them together is worth an idol worship forbidden relations and bloodshed together so if these three destroyed the betamigdash so much more so than the second temple was destroyed from sinatrinam so why didn't we go into israel and didn't build better mikdash because so you don't have to be a genius here of course there's many other sins you have to prevent yourself from doing anything but if you're looking at a certain pattern what caused us constantly to lose vitamin dash is the same thing so i learned from that what i need to be careful i know roshanara is very juicy and you want to hear what it so and so did you know what's the problem with that what's the biggest problem and one needs to learn that by the way i highly suggest that each and every one of you take the right appropriate book and learn to know what's latin is a very large uh title you have in that slandering and you have in that gossiping and many other uh branches of la shona but nevertheless you need to know what's notional sometimes you're saying a simple thing and that's how should i do to be very careful you have to learn that but nevertheless the problem is that there are the ones who speak lashonda my rule is if you speak lashandara i don't want to be associated with you in any type of a way you know why because the last one who spoke when the ground opened he didn't decide who's guilty or not anyone that was around him went in so if you're speaking i don't even next to you because the ground is going to open under your legs i don't want to be the one who's falling in i'm so high my rule is you speak thank you so much you stay there and i'll stay here and i'll wave to you from far away i don't want you to be i don't want to associate with you in any type of a way why because everybody around gets hurt but i'll tell you what's the major problem some people they're not some people unfortunately that's dirty coolness they're just talking i'll tell you what's a bigger problem is listening to it and believing it talking about that's one thing but believing it that's worse and that's the major problem because there's always going to be one person that would say you know what i heard about so and so and then everybody wants to hear especially if he's somebody known or somebody famous or a great rabbi or a celebrity or somebody that if you say i heard about moshe zuckman i don't even know him but i heard some good gossip about this rabbi the problem is that the majority believe what they hear and as severe as it is to speak the losh it's ten times worse to believe it and not to actually question not long ago somebody called me and he told me i heard that you did this and that is that true i said not even close to the truth a hundred percent a lie thank you so much hang on the phone later on i congratulated him and i told him i'm very happy you called you are the only mensch that i know because the hundreds of others that heard that believed it you were the only mensch to come and say i heard this and this about you is it true no thank you that's all it took i told him you're the only one who's winning the prize all the rest heard it oh really so you want to be very careful not to be associated in anything that has to do with that so to summarize what we want to take from today is the first and most important mashiach is already here don't miss out don't be the one who's missing out on the train i don't know how it is in the south africa i lived in amer in america new york 15 years so most of the transportation in new york is subways and there's always the situation when you're going on rush hour that the platform is packed with people and then the train comes the doors open everybody rushes in and when you come up the door closes you don't want mashiach to come and the doors will close and you're like but i was standing on the platform yeah but you didn't get in so a we want to take from that mashiach is already here b you have to ask yourself every day at least once why is mashiach not coming today why didn't he come yesterday and that should lead you to the next question what can i do to hasten the redemption to make sure that the redemption will come faster and smoother and the many things that we talked about you choose for yourself how you apply that to your life because a lot of people say i don't say la shannara okay so take a book learning hotly show and i'm normal i don't want to disappoint you but you'll find out that you are talking with sonora you need to know when you zip it when you just close your mouth when you talk who you need to listen what you need to listen don't believe everything that the people tell you that's our biggest epidemic and needless to say that causes the next line of a problem that will cause the disagreements and the arguments and the separation and i can guarantee to you that ninety percent of the arguments the mhl quote they start because of lashonda that is not even true you know how many disagreements are between groups in our generation because something supposedly happened 250 years ago and it never actually happened and up until days groups acidic groups or other groups that they don't talk with each other oh this group i don't talk to why 200 years ago the rabbis were fighting no such a thing there's a myth that the balatanya the founder of the movement of chabad and the god from vilna who was the leader of the litaim that they were having some type of a disagreement or an argument and up until today the groups that don't get along never such a thing happened if the balatania and the gun from vietnam will meet together there would be best of friends two geniuses never happened such a thing it's not true the disagreement was between the the followers not between the rebbe's and up until today something that never happened is causing thousands of people to dislike each other so the point is that the mouth is the destroyer of all problems needless to say that's also the savior of everything i told you what safe no the words so hopefully we can be the ones who are hastening the gula who are in in charge and responsible of hastening and bringing it smoother and and needless to say we want to all want to be included we have to be smart we have to see what's going on around us we have to make the right analogy what is true what is not true i told you yesterday this is the world of deception a lot of lies around us we have to be responsible the torah gives you a hint of make yourself a rabbi appoint yourself a real rabbi not a fake one a real rabbi that will guide you to the truth the fake rabbi will agree with everything that you say and everything that you want to do the real rabbi will tell you that is not allowed you can't do this this is wrong this is not permitted a lot of people they looking for the rapper that will say yes for everything that they ask him i told him not to long ago somebody called me and he had a question he went through the ir key through this process of getting a phone call i get on the phone call he asked me his question can i do this and this and this i told him no he says are you sure i'm sure you're sure 100 i can't do that yeah you can do that you're the ninth rabbi who's telling me that nine eight rabbis told you that and you call me you think i'll tell you yes so what are you waiting for the rabbit who tell you yes you can do it so i'll finish with a joke so you can get the idea not too long ago i saw i said the joker also but there was once an individual who goes to a rabbi and he tells the rabbi rabbi my donkey just died and i want you to say kaddish for my donkey the rabbi says excuse me you want me to say kaddish for the donkey the donkey died we've just buried him and i want you to say kaddish for the donkey he says we don't say kaddish for an animal he's like why not he you know that donkey was in my family for 20 years he was my business partner my whole business is on this donkey he's my best friend you know sad i am i want you to say kaddish for the donkey and i'm willing to give a donation to the synagogue rabbit tells him i can say kaddish for the donkey so the person says you know if i'm gonna go across the street to the reform show and i'll give them a hundred thousand dollars i guarantee to you he's gonna say kaddish to the donkey so the rabbi answered him why didn't you tell me the donkey's jewish so you want to find a rabbi that will tell you the truth and not will manipulate the situation to what you want to hear or what sounds good because the right rabbi would lead you to tell you this is true this is wrong this is correct don't do this when i became observant i couldn't find a rabbi because every time i would find somebody i would love him and then i would see a fault and one of the advice that i got from somebody is that you said he told me you want to see what's a real rabbi a real rabbi doesn't matter how smart he is or how much torah he knows a real rabbi will never promote any disagreement he will never promote any two people fighting amongst each other he will be the one who's promoting the peace if he would hear that there's any type of argument between two people who would come to say how can we make peace here so the point is that we want to make peace between ourselves you want to be the one you can't expect other people but you can expect from yourself to love other people not to judge other people to see things the right way and even somebody did something bad not to judge them not to go and slander not to go and lie not to go and cheat and i can guarantee to you that a few more people will know how to control this little hole in our face then the redemption is going to come much faster much smoother and we'll be able to finally see with our own eyes the coming of machia
