And of course, as a side note, for those
of you that
still have not understood the
significance of the mizuza, I keep
telling people over and over again that
if you're buying a mizuza
based on price, you're very very likely
to find out that you overpaid.
How come? How can you be over how can
you overpay if you bought it for a
discount? If you buy a mizuza today for
let's say $80, $100,
how could that be a overpayment versus a
muza for $150, $200? Simple. More likely
than not, based on today's prices and
how much it cost to get from a real
sophila
that you got was either done by a
computer printer or a non-Jew or
somebody who doesn't know how to do it.
And the muza you have is the paper is
worth more than the writing.
There was even a research done by a team
out of I believe in New York
in uh where they got they had some type
of campaign where they had a bunch of
people send their muzot for them to
check and they said that over 85% of the
muzot that people sent in were not
kosher.
Do you know what kind of ridiculous
statistic that is? People have muz on
their doors protecting their house
with something that not only doesn't do
good, doesn't protect, but it actually
causes harm.
And this unfortunately abai is a problem
that continues to grow because people
are buying muzot based on price versus
based on who is the sufel
who is the source that's giving you
this.
Now
this muza
or
anything else that you do with your body
is one of the ways that you're serving a
kadu with your body.
Making a guardrail for a roof. This
doesn't necessarily only apply to a
roof. This also means a guardrail around
your pool.
How many tragedies have we heard about
over the past year, 10 years
where little kids fall into a pool and
drown?
Many times
it was because somebody did not follow
what the law, what the Torah says, which
is you have to have a guardrail around
the pool.
If you don't have a guardrail around the
pool, but you have kids,
then that simply means you are ignoring
the Torah.
And people that ignore the Torah,
unfortunately, suffer.
You cannot
put other people, whether it's your
family or other people's families,
at risk because of beauty. If you don't
want to have a guardrail around your
pool,
either don't have kids or don't allow
kids in the backyard.
Simple.
and any other precept that culminates in
the act carried out by the body. So all
of this is well and understood
anytime you're praying, anytime you're
learning to anytime you're giving taka,
anytime you're fasting, anytime you're
doing something with your body that's
part of the Torah, you are serving
Hashem outwardly.
Inwardly, on the other hand,
is the more difficult part.
Because that's the part
that only you and see
and sometimes only one of you knows the
truth
and it's not you.
We are meant to be a light unto the
nations, not [music] to follow their
misguided practices. Remember, every Jew
has to remember that he's a Jew and
she's a Jew. We don't celebrate
non-Jewish holidays, even if they seem
harmless.
It's ail [music]
disrespect
to the Torah.
