The Human Manual with Rabbi Frand | All Parsha

[Music] okay Shalom it is my biggest pleasure and to be joined by RAB friend um who is a well-known m in for many many many years I don't even know how many he could tell us soon but the reason why he's joined us is because we are just a couple days before Fran has been saying a Al in Baltimore for 40 plus years I know that it has been available via satellite this was before internet before online or my friend managed with the help of others to get this to other places live across the world for I'm assuming over 20 years um and now we've had this of having our my friend share with us exclusively every single week on the all para platform and Fran now besides the books that have been put out over the past many years from art scroll my friend has now published a safer based on part of his parir that he's been giving for the last 40 plus years so we' like to discuss all that with him my first question is and obviously we have to acknowledge that we are CLA is standing in a terrible situation the mat is beyond belief and beyond words and we hope that any and any any anything that we could do and any that comes out in from this conversation and learning para should be and for all those that are in need amen my friend maybe take us back to the beginning how did you get into learning para okay so first of all I want to be over here is the Orthodox Union and the platform of Al paraa um you know I I know that it's widely seen because I get feedback uh you know and uh and I appreciate uh the the harbas terror that the U is providing not only in terms of Al paraa but Al daf I I myself use from time to time and I really want to thank uh Rabbi mosha schwed and and his whole crew in terms of the all all paraa uh app so how did I get started so Rabbi shred mentioned I've been in N Isel a long time actually this past l i celebrated my 60th year in the yesh N Isel which is a tremendous has given me to be in one place from time I was uh 15 years old uh to now and be able to learn here and to say a year here this is really a so when I first started saying she so again it started very small it was called a wasn't really a sheer and in those days I said once a week I said on you know a sheer once a week on the gamar so you know as time went on I wanted to say more so I went to my Reby who I consider my Reby not only in terms of setting my on my feet and learning but who taught me how to say isir which is two different things learning and learning how to say a his name was rki he was a world class Mage so I asked him you know what else what what else should I do so he says why don't you say the par and I did and this goes back you know I mean more than more than 50 years um so oh more more than 40 Years anyway so I started saying and I see the B loved it they they ate it up they loved it and and so so because it's something that you know you know we think of the the the genius of The Da Yi everybody's holding the same da The Genius of had in mind is from a four-year-old to an 84y old old everybody's learning the same para which is an amazing thing I mean that keeps everybody's holding the same para so I mean again I started out and you know I you know I I went through different kufus for many years I would I would focus on sh then I would focus onen and and every year not every year but the would be me a safer the right safer and and that's what I've been I've been doing uh uh how do I pick how do I pick the safer well again that's but how do I pick the the topic I'm going to talk about there I mean you can spend an entire year on Paras Braes forget safer braches so uh the answer is I I I say what what speaks to me and thankfully what speaks to me apparently speaks to other people as well so you mentioned that you started with and then how did it end up to where it is now in the good is of Baltimore and eventually I have to mention with the help of Mars Smith because I know he's involved bringing it not online this is before online satellite TOS across the country so in 1982 um when I was still in Kyle so the the K said let's start some shum in town and one of the sh that started in town was to say this this format the format of of my Sheeran town is it's about 40 minutes of that's related to the par which I always had a desire for you know so that's a lawn mower I'm sorry if hearing that um I always had a a in that you know some related to the para and then I would finish with the 20 minutes on the paraa now everybody likes the paraa if for no other reason because you're going to sit down with your family on Friday night and you wanted to make it a tyod suda rather than talking about politics or what's going on in SHO or sports or whatever it may be you want to say something so people they have what to say but more fundamentally you know it used to be when you bought some kind of device it came with a manual okay today they've gotten rid of that also because you go online right unfortunately I had to buy a new cell phone yesterday which is a I hate that okay but okay it's done and only took me four hours okay so I I bought a so doesn't come with it used to come with a manual the most complex item in the world is the human being it's more complex than than than the most sophisticated computer what's the manual what's the manual of of the Ben AUM of the human being how does it work how does it think what what do you do that's what Tyra is toyra is the manual of how human beings work and that manual primarily at least in the be fundamentally is the par now you read the par sha doesn't say you know how you're supposed to feel when XYZ happens or how you're supposed to read but that's what kazal are here for kazal opened up the T sa and showed us how people that's what all this is all about that's what especially say for braus the story of the O the story about YF and his brothers it's all it's all about the meus and the way that people think psychologically Etc that's why was such a genius because he saw psychological insights into the you know and um I've I've said that often that one of the best Onish the last 30 years to my knowledge is a called from the rash the insights the the the the it just it's just amazing you know and over the years I've been you know doing this as as rabed said I started in 1982 so now you know uh it's more than 40 years and uh and people people like it and and I was that [Music] mayor May lot what smart gold convinced me to go ahead and and to put this into the into the written form and I to have a a wonderful editors and so now there are four para books friend on the para one two three and a vort on the par because they didn't like the same title for the fourth time at any rate and uh it's invaluable I mean at whatever stage you're at whatever level of learning you're at whether you learned in brisk or whether you learned in you know uh the day school of pipy New York you there's something in the par for you okay so first of all you should be to have another 40 more years of saying and content for and ASA and you should have the right safe and they WR for for to be able to give it over every year amen amen so my my my my next question is you're a rebi you're a speaker you have many many many they're all real that you know tell that you don't know if someone would come over to you and it could be it depend who it is but there are people who even though Kaz say that you are to be mavra that's brought down have a wonderful SCH for those that do that someone who completes the para every year has a special school all looking for school and one who's able right now we're at the beginning of a year and someone could take it on ash it's beautiful but if someone comes you and says Reby realistically I'm not holding by it it's not something I could do however I want to learn some of the parer or be something so I'm not asking perspective if you that's for a friend I don't think consider himself a but as a rebbi asking a rebbi what would you advise the tal and do they have any maybe if you could if you want to offer opinion to this well if you can't do the whole thing and it's ironic I was just looking through my notes for something else and I just found aish from I think raish stb about asked him he can't read the tarum you know he breaks his teeth on the tum it doesn't understand a word and he's basically doesn't even understand much of the Kish so for he says you can read it in English and you could be M certainly reading the English now he said Optimum no but you know today there's so much out there I mean between art scroll and between uh online shum everybody I think almost everybody is capable of reading the para whether it's in you know I had a b a b not my sheer he sits in front of me by ding he's from Chile so he says I I've never I've never really gotten into par shash so I ask him does art school have a Spanish Kish he said yeah and he started learning the paraa in Spanish and he's he's better for it so whatever it takes whether it's you know online whether it's in English Spanish French uh you you certainly can learn part of the par and maybe start start small every week you learn up to sheny you know next week next yeari and then you'll Master it I mean listen there are people that started da da Yi in their 60s never Having learned gor before now is a lot harder than par right excellent okay so you know just to Echo what what you said before about um the being the manual of a person's life you know people are reading books you know this is the book this is the book this is the book you should be reading you know all the different lines out there about you know having read the book and everything else this isre the book this is the book is the book yes correct e book and capital capital capital letters um okay so let's let's just move over I don't want thank you very much again for your time know it's a busy time and as we mentioned before um my friend mentioned to me before for that is starting early because of the because of the so it's right before this man so maybe show us and tell us what's what you what you just publish now and where is it available and how could people get it and we obviously will share this um through all our channels and um make the information available so I don't know how well comes out to me it's backwards because uh it's a mirror but it's called and it's of it's on saer braus andos and what this is is that I went back over the 40 plus years that I've been saying this the Hala part and I picked five pieces per para of what I think has currency that's Nea that's applicable that Gish and and I was very fortunate to have great editors there's a company out of Lakewood called Alas and you know they re-edited it and recast it it's easy reading it's the type of thing you know Friday night uh between cabala shabas and my if there's a break you can take this and you can learn a Simon it's divided up into different sections it's easy reading and I you know all modesty to the side it's it's gmak it's a it's kmak people enjoy it and uh so it's it's it's capturing R Fran's passion Fran's delivery FR in a nice concise clear book safer format right right and um you know I uh the the the publisher the distributor the the editors they think that it's going to be a hit because again it's it appeals to people I'm not going to sit here and praise myself even though I am but I mean but that that aside you know others have said that people will enjoy the safer and I think you will as well okay fine so I'm assuming it's available in or your local so it's it's I have a distributor uh called imas safer which is located in Brooklyn and he's put it in certainly the bookstores in New York and the New York area and certainly in Lakewood and all the book star storm star in Lakewood uh we're going to um are the Yadi which is the one that hosts all of my shurm so we're gonna we'll put up a a link to
