Bitachon 21 - Bitachon and Corona

hi this is going to be the be talking podcast number 21 and it was actually a live shear that I gave to the women's group of the be talking to be talking group and unfortunately did not film it so from here on in it's going to be just a static picture I call my mr. Shiva at an hour ago 45 minutes ago to ask him you know any thoughts to share with the group I told him was gonna be putting this group and I'll tell you exactly what he said just I also try to share a few other thoughts that I've heard from him and maybe a few amount specifically he said it's an amazing thing that's going on here with the corona a color spoke who is clearly saying that he is there and with all of our all of the all of that which we've built with the money and the desire for for so many things the skyscrapers in Manhattan with all of that which we've built my Shem can swoop in at any moment shut it all down people are losing millions and billions and trillions of dollars and Hashem is saying I'm here and he told he it's a story I've heard from him many times he told the story about this this man who had just lost his daughter his teenage daughter I believe she was maybe late teens and she had died in a car accident but the thing was that all of her friends were in the car the car rolled over all the other all the other kids in the car came out without a scratch she was in the safest seat in the car in the back seat in the middle cushioned by her two friends and this girl passed away and and the guy said the father this girl said you know Shem took my daughter clearly took my daughter and and so mr. Shima asked him does that does that comfort you is that comforting to know that and he said no it's not comforting he was not comforted by that he was he was angry honest um but manager Shiva was trying to bring out from that that my Shem is clearly doing this it's very open clear and obvious and and it should give us his ik it should strengthen us to know the fact that we know that a coach Baku is the one who's doing it and we are all affected by it and I mean in my in my thinking you know it's it's like a very interesting and funny situation because the fear everyone's afraid of getting corona in the the fear is founded for people really over sixty seventy that's where the the problems really are on people with specific background issues so the fear you know for our kids at least but for us even is is not so much it's not so much founded you know it's it's more of a fear for my parents and a fear for mushiya I called him to ask him how he's doing Tommy's doing well but but the fear for us is definitely more directly you know I've had many I've had many sons I might have I had a major job in post-op over Pesach which would have covered all my pace off expenses which was cancelled and now I was Shia if I have to return the deposit and so it's more of a financial issue I think directly right now for this moment for most people and also you know the new Zion of having all of our kids around it's certainly no easy challenge but but the bottom line of it is when what I understood for mr. Shiva is that it's we are facing off with a personal Messiah this Rob who's doing us personally and so we need to each ask ourselves why Hashem trying to say to me this is a personal clear Akhilesh broku coming in Baja Brewer very clear to show us that he's first of all he's involved in our lives but but specifically that he he wants us to wake up he wants us to wake up and Myra she was suggestion was to focus too to work on breakfast with qivana that's what he said Natasha okay no mom mighty like I'm in all right let me see the breakfast so think about the words that were saying because if we're if it's about a college boy whose specific hajikko and he specifically you know shaking us up and asking us to connect to him so then the brothers are certainly an opportunity to do that consistently is that some Irish Russia was said and now a few thoughts a few other thoughts one of the things I heard from Irish Shiva in the shoe room you know is that is that a college bar who you know he was talking I I'm listening to Shirin that I heard 20 years ago about be talking when I was sitting in the room and and I remember so much of it because it was very profound it was very profound he would say things like one day you'll you'll have this thought and you'll think that you thought of it on your own but you're just gonna be remembering something that I'm telling you now and then you go on to say whatever profound thought but one of the profound thoughts that he said is that you know when you're a buffer and you're listening to sheer about beat often so you may or may not have to work on that it's like you know I talk a lot in my house about be talkin and my son no she dove who's turning 17 he's like yeah what's what how do I work on this cuz he's you know he's also interested in and muster and and be talkin and okay as his entrance exams into you should be good I love coming up so he has an opportunity to work on it and thinking about Corona we have an opportunity to work on it but for the most part until until this thing has you know come up for us it's it's been it's been pretty pretty much for a buck or at least not that much to work on there's somebody who's unmuted if you don't mind to just mute yourself Thanks so so but but the thing that he says is that when we work on beat often when we work on the be talkin in in a time an irregular time so once we've gotten used to mulling and chewing it and working on it in regular times so the opportunity comes along which is a more of a challenging time and then we already have the tool and the tool in our pocket to be able to use it and the story he tells us how his his rabbits in rabbits in Shawnee pare asked her father a butyl aid nekritz it was a vertical major nevada ker was Russia Shiva based yusuff which was Navarre akin in Brooklyn and you know it's Yadu it's well known in others so they would work on the meeda of like conv Liza Mora I didn't get up it he didn't shake when when hummin passed by so they would work on this Mead and they would walk into a you know a store that sold nails and or they would walk into a bakery and they would ask for nails or they do the opposite whenever they would they do something unusual and difficult and the reason that they did it was in order to be mahalik themselves and being able to go against the tide and so she asked her father like what was the purpose of that like like okay so you did that then but like what was the point of it and he said once you have it in your back pocket you can pull it out whenever you need it it was to be able to to beam up to inculcate into oneself the ability to have that mita to have the ability to stand up a stand against the tide and I can pull that out whenever I need it and we've worked on be talking here and this is an amazing thing I like I really feel this and maybe you guys feel it too but you know I started pretty much at the same I mean I've been listening to this you in for many many years but focused every day working on be talking I started about a little bit more than a year ago when I started whoa okay when I started that the be talking podcast and and I feel like I could borrow who set us up I think I think that he set us up with the tool to be able to pull out of our back pocket when the challenges arise and and I don't I don't make any claim that you know everything is just going to flow and be perfect and easy and money is just gonna show up the way it always has I don't know if that's gonna be the case for me it happens to be that a few different interesting things have been going on like we have a we have a in our house we have a deal dad no fish a a vacation apartment that people commonly use whatever for a few days and and there were two people that were supposed to come in from the states one for a week another one for another week over pay so I think there was a lot of money and they canceled class second no deposit no nothing you know there's no whatever we understand but that's not so cool now today literally an hour ago we got a phone call there's a couple who's you know they push up the wedding and because they're everyone's do moving up the wedding's now instead of doing them in two weeks from now they want to do it now because at least they completely you know have ten people at their wedding and they wanted to know if they could rent our apartment further because the apartment that they were supposed to have is not to be available until two weeks from now so so who is taking it away on once on one end but he's he's giving it on another end and and you know I think that if we look for that we're gonna see that especially if we're working on the beer talking I think that we're going to see that to the extent that we have that sense of strongly talkin to the extent that we you know we've all I think I mean I can I can speak for myself I've gotten you know we go in and out of it often sometimes we have it and sometimes we don't should she be speaks about that at length sometimes we feel and sometimes we don't and and we have a riffian we have a weakening in our be talking but it's been my experience that when push comes to shove and we have a difficult situation to beat ah it's an opportunity to strengthen the be talking to be talking comes in even stronger and one of the things so we have already talking about Broca's with qivana another thing that I want to suggest this past Sunday when we had the men's meeting it'll be talking group so we read this paragraph on page 86 I'm going to read it the Gemara Tiny's tells of a roman officer who threatened to Righteous Brothers they remained undisturbed by their impending doom and told him that if they were indeed deserving of death God has many bears and lions in this world that can kill us if he wills it God also has many viruses and bacteria at his disposal if he wishes to kill a person he has many channels available to him whether for life or death therefore a person cannot be talkin for something even if the steps leading to salvation need to have been set in motion already the potential refer is already there it's just waiting for you to cease to be ta'en in front of you so there's a few things I want to bring out of the paragraph first of all it's like that's the paragraph that we read when we're all thinking about Corona you know this this thing about Hashem has many viruses and bacteria at his disposal the point is not that I could just walk who's out there to get us the point is that that he's in charge and he's in charge and he wants us to to connect him and and recognize that and the other point in there is that everything everything is just waiting everything is just waiting for us number one to recognize because Prabhu sent sent the men's be talking group that paragraph is past week you guys I heard were sent the para the section about but Esther I'm Alka and and and the Megillah right before my before poram so it's like noticing a college walk who is constantly doing this for us he is constantly sending us little messages that he's there and he's taking care of us and sometimes the messages are I'm here and I love you and I'm giving this patch of my love for you that might be the message to you know I don't know I'll tell you I did almost see Shabbos I had we had scheduled a concert to a fundraise for a particular organization here in Israel and I was expecting 200 people to show up and in the end there was 25 people and people canceled the last second bar and a lot of them gave the money to the organization anyway but one of the things that I said to the group that was there which was actually an older group most of them I think in their 60s and 70s one of things I said to the group we sang I sang tabla Haider /m and I asked them to to sing along and to think as I was saying in the words have light as the shaba I said think of one thing when you say thank you tough guy go sunshine say thank you for one amazing thing in your life and at the same time I also I also want you to say thank you a Shem for one terrible thing in your life I want I want you to doc you say thank you for something which you hate in your life as I said and I said don't worry don't have to share it afterwards because you can you can think it it's all it's all in your you know in your hearts but a woman came over to me afterwards and she was very emotional and she said to me that she had been she had been a major bus accident I think she got know if she got hit by a bus I don't know exactly what the story was she indicated that was something I had been the news on your show Lyme and it had been four years ago and and and it's I'm paraphrasing what she said but she was able that night she was able to say thank you a sham that she's alive it sounded like until that moment and she she got emotional she was able to cry about the situation for the first time I'm since the accident happened so there's something so so point number one Broca's become owner point number two recognizing a Shem is the one doing everything and and noticing that Hashem number one is doing things for good and also noticing and thanking axiom for stuff that's challenging saying singing I coulda spoke with that world we're all in this boat together also that's an important thing to see and to know we're all working on me talking together and we're all in this is a worldwide challenge that's an amazing thing someone said to me today my brother-in-law Gabi Weiner he said to me never in history perhaps has there been a moment where everyone is everyone's minds are focused on one thing everyone is thinking about one thing Corona everyone we're all there's like a sense of unity throughout the world even he said even the terrorists of Isis are telling their people don't go to Europe because it's dangerous there because of Corona even the terrorists are worried about Corona so everyone and then he was saying it's a it's a you know a kana for the moment when while ours there's a shine when everyone's gonna be focused on serving a college bar cool but you see that such a thing as possible that everyone can be focused so made me call that point number three we're all in this together and we're all we all have an opportunity to work on this together to work on the be talking together and perhaps the last point perhaps the last point is that this is kind of well a little bit was wrapped up in what my Russia Shiva said but you know during during the elections here Netanyahu said one of the things that he said you know in why we should vote for him was he's the one who protected ami Stroud I'm gonna protected ami Israel that's what he said and I heard on the radio today like a similar kind of sentiment it was a somebody from talking from beat Wakulla me which is the you know the public medicine here and he was saying don't worry everything is under control there's gonna be money for you for your children for your grandchildren everything's fine everything's gonna be fine I come first of all a couple of some chefs to try to say such a thing but but there's a Kitely X mu D there's a tremendous country but you know the arm the one who saved ami Sorrells says our our bog IVA of a prime minister and um be Tuolumne says we're the ones who are gonna give money to you your children your grandchildren and we'll save you in your old age we'll still have the money and and part of what I've been working on here in this beautiful group and my personal journey I don't remember if I mentioned I remember how much I've said remember who has I've said a lot to a lot of different people but you know this journey started for me this intense the intensity of this journey started for me because I put out an album which probably was the album that was heard the most of any album that I've ever done and but the album lost a lot of money I spent a lot of money on it and I lost a lot of I lost I still I shouldn't say I lost the money I mean mr. Shen will be paid off but but lamai so I'm still sitting with a very big debt and paying it off very slowly but and I had done everything that I could I had put in every normal-ish stylist maybe maybe too much ish Douglas and I came out of it like really burnt burned really burned and and it was like and I kept seeing all around me like in all our firm media like too much focus on how I can how I can succeed and what did this person do to succeed in this business how did they succeed succeed what if she taught us that they do we have to put her in our maximum status that's what I've heard over and over again and it it's like that's not really true that it's not really what I could work who wants from me that is not what the Columbia style of always says even though he does say we need to do is Douglas he says this now this is just a sign for us so we don't we don't confuse things we're not supposed to get confused and think that Irish tothis is what's doing it so I personally had that and I feel like a claw for sure in the world around us in the second row but even within our own firm world there's this issue going on and coach Mark who is saying hey it's not you don't you think don't don't think for a moment that it's you and I can show you how easily and how quickly every all of the dominoes can fall and it's not I don't I don't see it as a punishment I see it as a wake-up and I'm I'm excited personally that I've had an opportunity to work on this and I'm I feel like I'm coming in with the tools the mice I work with Estados you know I work with be talking with Atlas and there's a certain certain amount of status that I do do personally and and it seems because Rock who sends a lot through through my Atlas and you know looking at the great abyss who knows what will be could be everything we find in two months you know it could be this is just a shake-up but it could also be not who knows who knows what's gonna be we don't know what's gonna be but certainly to continue to work on this be talkin and and and recognize that a color struggle wants us to to connect to him there's a possible get says I can't quote the plastic exactly what the plastic it says by mushiya mushiya comes that that the Sun and the moon and the stars will all be extinguished and lucky has shemesh laurel um the sun will no longer be that which provides light to the world cami lock laurel uh Michael - Polk was gonna be the one but the light will come directly from a collision oracle and the idea is that all the things that seem to give us life the Sun the Moon the Stars the Malakand the the messenger is the boss the husband's to this to that the wife's business all these things ultimately they they vanish they vanish you know I don't know if we're holding bye-bye Messiah I'd like to think we are I don't know if we are but certainly what's supposed to happen when Messiah comes is that all of the idolatry all of the avoid azari's of the gold and the silver idols that we all have you know they fall away and and be talking is really about connecting tacos Roku directly and this is a great opportunity so I invite you all to take the opportunity and that's what I have to say
