Bitachon 275 - It Will All Be Good!
590 views
We continue our exploration of the opinion of the Chazon Ish in Bitachon, which stresses the importance of knowing that all that happens to a person - whether good or not so good - it is all a decree from heaven and ultimately must be embraced as such. Furthermore, this opinion contends that one can depend on a positive outcome if one is in a proper relationship with their Creator.

You're listening to the 275th edition of
the B'etakhen podcast.
We are continuing
in trying to understand the the shita,
the opinion of the Chazon Ish.
And Rav Dov Rosen finishes off here in
B'etakhen Hashem and says in Cain a tick
for shishim yatem like a fish or kashif.
The bottom line is
B'etakhen which we would all like to
think is true.
Which is that I can have B'etakhen
that Hashem will give me
an outcome that I wish.
She kunda will ashondea alef B'etakhen
Hashem which was referred to by the
first opinion
as
a false type of B'etakhen.
So, that's not true. It's not a false
type of B'etakhen B'etakhen. O she am a
drago and B'etakhen
either it's the highest level of
B'etakhen according to Rabbeinu Yonah
O she am a drago shmekhayevis klashim
adas or according to Rabbeinu Avraham
and Rambam
it's the level that all
religious people are obligated in.
O she am a drago yes in a mukhlif
B'etakhen or according to Rabbeinu
Avraham Rata it's a lower level of
B'etakhen to expect that it be the way
that I that I think it should be.
Akh lekhola deas in a drago B'etakhen
and here B'etakhen Hashem Hashem Hashem
everyone agrees that it is a level of
B'etakhen.
Just a question of which level it is,
but having B'etakhen that it's going to
be good.
Feeling a sense of security that it's it
will be good.
Everyone agrees that that is a level of
B'etakhen. Obviously according to the
Madregas Adam as we've spoken of many
times, that's the highest level.
She does this shiloh Chazon Ish zatzal.
The opinion of the Chazon Ish will gain
us the yakas heida and mikayris.
Has many sources. And and clearly by the
way he's saying that the Chazon Ish does
not argue with this.
B'miyukhad d'var matim l'dovid
>> Specifically,
his words
line up well with the words of Rabbeinu
Yona.
His words in in section seven
line up
exactly with the words of Rabbeinu Yona.
It's very similar to Rabbeinu Yona.
Our cafe, page 105.
The words that begin the paragraph that
begins with the words
that sometimes it will occur that one
who serves Hashem, etc.
Go check it out there.
Even though the student of the of the
Chazon Ish said
that the Chazon Ish wrote what we call
his sheetah, which is pretty short
safer, he had written it just as notes
for himself, and he didn't
prepare it to be printed.
He says, "I'm not a prophet,
but I believe the Oracle now that based
on what we said
even
if he would have prepared them to print,
it wouldn't have changed anything."
Should I
mention the Chazon Ish
because
Chazon Ish's sheetah is very
clearly defined and clearly
um
it's clear that it's
he meant what he said and he said what
he meant.
I could actually do this with the
Lubavitcher Rebbe. So now we saw the
opinion of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. I
don't think I can tie it.
A person needs to trust Sheyibalei
Ta'av,
that it's going to be good.
But the good is going to be according to
Hashem's
You know what Hashem knows and what
Hashem
Hashem's abilities
as much as my team lay to that which is
appropriate for you.
I don't know what she does and it's all
right. So that's the
opinion.
Right, but when we get to the Shema I'm
in the crash in the Rahim.
The person is standing in front of two
paths. I don't understand what she is
doing. One is good and one is not. You
know what I'm talking about in life.
Going to the lab according to the issue
can't
assume can't be talking that for sure
it's going to be good. I don't know what
she is talking about.
Right, that's not for the regular
people.
So
you got to just believe that there's no
you know, there's no mistakes in the
world. Everything that happens is from
Hashem.
I can come up with a lot of stuff. I
don't know what she is talking about.
Everything is announced from heaven
whether for good or for not so good.
I don't know what she is talking about.
It's all good.
I believe [snorts] in this.
Uh absolute faith with absolute faith.
I'm a figure of authority.
It takes away his fear. I don't know
what she is talking about. It's all
good. It's all good. It's all good.
And gives him the ability as we said
last time to believe in the possibility
of being saved.
I don't know what she is talking about.
It's all good. It's all good. It's all
good. It's all good.
But there is an opinion which
which uh
disputes this and says
I don't know what she is talking about.
It's all good. It's all good. It's all
good. It's all good.
I don't know what she is talking about.
It's all good. It's all good. It's all
good.
I don't know what she is talking about.
It's all good. It's all good. I don't
know what she is talking about.
The real talking is not believing that
Hashem will do whatever he thinks is
good.
Even if it doesn't look good to me.
I don't know what she is talking about.
It's all good. It's all good. It's all
good. It's all good.
There's an opinion that says that real
talking is that I am confident that the
good result that looks good to me is
what Hashem is going to do. I don't know
what she is talking about. It's all
good. It's all good. It's all good.
I'm having bitachon that Hashem will do
something that
I will also be able to recognize that
it's good, not just that behind the
scenes in the spiritual realms Hashem
knows it's good.
Dovning as a highly comes as much as he
had to have in his Hashem. And so this
type of bitachon
has to be even when it doesn't seem like
there's a possibility, heaven forbid, of
a good outcome. Sikui l'kabel as it says
time we talk with the person still has
bitachon.
Not just that it could be good, that
will be good.
>> [clears throat]
>> Even when it doesn't seem like it could
be good.
She Kodesh Baruch Hu Yeshiva V'Omer
Mishum Rabbeinu Mukbo.
Chas V'Shalom.
Hashem will save me
because Hashem is not limited. Hashem
can perform miracles as it says in
Shulchan Aruch Orech Chaim.
Hashem can change nature.
L'anius Daati.
Up here we have Rabbeinu Yona Bachye ben
Asher al pi Rabbeinu Yona al pi Rabbeinu
Yona al pi
Based on Rabbeinu Yona al pi Rabbeinu
It's possible to
and necessary to bring these two
opinions together.
K'siv Rabbeinu Yona. Rabbeinu Yona
writes al derech mashal l'vair.
As an analogy we can explain Kinyan
Bitachon that the concept of bitachon
K'she yakir b'techa l'melech
V'omer l'chol kocho l'fanei v'simcha
b'tuv levav v'ruach tovah l'melech
v'daato.
When a person who trusts in the king
comes to a recognition.
Now this person we're talking about who
trusts in the king
is somebody who's working with all of
his strength
in front of the king with joy
and good-heartedness because he's so
confident in the king.
Ki yitein maskurto shleima and he's
going to get paid fully. Kings can pay
well.
Yinevei Tevach Hashem Yisborach, so
somebody who trusts in Hashem going to
say that
even if
many different difficulties occur for
him.
So, that person will strengthen himself
and trust for real.
That is that his actual reward is going
to be
much greater with you all the time
will choose something good.
And
if the person receives
negative situations in this world,
so that's for his best.
To remove his sins.
Now, I would add to remove his ego.
To bring him close to God.
And to make it
and make him cleaner so that when he
gets to the world of true reward,
his reward will be
even greater.
As it says in Yeshayahu in Isaiah
chapter 49:4,
I said
that I worked [snorts] for nothing.
What does it mean? It sounds bad, right?
As it said
about the challenges that I worked for
nothing,
which means
that the
good deeds that I've done haven't been
as powerful
as the mistakes that I've made, the sins
that I've done.
I have more sins than merits.
But that's not really true.
But the truth is
that the challenges that occur for me
do not indicate that I have more sins
than
than merits.
But rather
the the challenges come to clean me off.
And to give me to to create a situation
where when I get my reward, it will be
full.
Ken y'an, like the possuk says there in
Yeshayahu.
Hashem has the person's reward.
Hashem sees the work that I've done.
Hashem sees the positive
things that I've that I've done in this
life.
So, the person who trusts fully in
Hashem knows
that his reward is waiting for him.
And there's a light which is planted for
him. Right? Which is a reference to the
possuk or tzaddik.
He also hopes for
and and
he expects
the fruits of his work in this world.
Right? A person can expect, it seems.
This is a line that we quoted earlier.
And that is that
the result, what comes out of
a person's bitachon is
>> [snorts]
>> that they have hope that it's going to
be good in this world.
And even that hope is also called
bitachon.
Right? Believing that it's going to be
good here.
The way in a way that seems good to me.
That's also called bitachon. We see
what's share at tzu l'meiman.
Because it's something that extends out
of bitachon.
That's the quote of Rabbeinu Yonah.
Rabbeinu Yonah teaches us
that a person should not hope that
Hashem will will fulfill whatever he
wishes.
When there's nothing preceding that
hope.
Unless
there is something preceding that hope,
which is
that there is reward for persons
good deeds.
And therefore, the person
has been talking
to see the fruits of his labors in this
world.
Something that he can see as good.
Something that he perceives as good.
Something that he knows is good.
Something that it is clear to It's clear
on the outside, you know,
that it's really good.
That this principle
>> [sighs]
>> It's very interesting the the way it's
being phrased.
The idea that having been talking that
things will be good
is
that we're talking comes out of a
previous It's like a a polyethelene.
It's like a
a result of
I'll be talking that precedes it.
I'll be talking that writes a similar
type of statement because
He says
that a person has to be very careful
to pay attention to
and to
stand up and withstand and make sure to
fulfill all that Hashem requires of him.
Serving Hashem
lifting oneself up
to do our sham's mitzvahs
we show him our sham's hero
and being careful not to do that which
our sham exhorts us not to do.
If you should write so
the way that our sham wants.
So then
a person as a result of that
which again it's important to just I
want to place in your minds that the
alter and the virus specifically says
that bitachon is not dependent on one's
actions but the sheet of the alter and
the virus
that depend if I am doing what I'm
supposed to be doing
then I can have bitachon that things are
going to be good
clearly good in this world.
As hazal say in pirkei avos
Make our sham's will your will.
Then our sham make your will his will.
If you want our sham to do what
what is good for you what looks good for
you
you got to make sure you're doing our
sham's will.
Nullify your will in front of our sham's
will that she
will nullify our sham's will for you.
In order that he will nullify the will
of others
in front of your will.
>> [snorts]
>> So we can say this as well in regards to
the two opinions
mentioned above.
When
there are two paths
one is good
one clearly looks good
and one clearly looks not good.
Look a person
person is biased toward himself
obviously
a person wants
a good result, a good outcome.
Shashem writes, but not every time
what I desire is what Hashem desires.
We don't know Hashem's thoughts. Hashem
has different thoughts. Hashem
understands the whole picture, and we
seldom do.
Now, when a person nullifies his own
will, makes his own will to be Hashem's
will, be your day as the
says, be honest Hashem in your name.
And you know
Hashem knows better than us what's good
for us.
And chooses something better than I
would even choose for myself.
And he places inside of himself
the known truth.
That in front of Hashem, nothing
There's no such thing
>> [clears throat]
>> as a happenstance event that causes a
person damage.
Everything is from Hashem.
Whether for good or not so good.
Then he can and should trust
that Hashem will make your will to do
good, your will that it be good
to be his will to do good.
And he will nullify the will of others
because of your will for good.
You're looking for something good that
everyone can see as good. Clearly, I
could say
we're talking about Hashem.
>> What is the Hazon Ish?
Once a person has
be talking in Hashem
the way that the Hazon Ish
and the Hazon Ish are magdir the way
that they define it, which is
based on my own
trying my best to do Hashem's will
as we have to take that he can and he
should trust in Hashem.
Hashem will give him something good that
we can all see as good. The way that
like the words of the second opinion.
Okay? So, it comes out bottom line
the way that we're understanding this,
the way that
the Hazon Ish safer understands this
that
we can have be talking that it's going
to be good. We should have be talking
that it's going to be good in a way that
looks good to us.
But, that is dependent on our good
deeds. So, I would say especially we're
holding in Elul
anyone can get into that space. We can
all get into that space.
All we need to do
is do good deeds.
We take a look at our
at our record. Take a look at
honestly take a look at the way we're
serving Hashem.
How does it look?
Are we doing what we should be doing? If
there's places where we feel we could be
doing better
let's be honest about it. Let's look at
it. Let's take it. Let's take a
reckoning. Let's take it into account.
Once we do that
I can on this moment because I'll say
a person who's a rasha, a wicked person
can do good deeds in a moment. He can
become a he can become a tzaddik. All he
needs to do is change directions.
He's in a certain direction
change to a different to a different
direction.
Head in a good direction. Once I do that
according to the Hazon Ish, I can have
be talking. According to the Hazon Ish,
you can have be talking that it's going
to be good.
And uh
next time as Hashem we will continue
talking about
the the topic that that's the next topic
is my side of the stomach people
talking.
When should we be using
the talking?
Thank you so much for listening. We'll
see you again next time.
