Basi Legani 5726 #6: If I want to share insight, I teach; if I want to share myself, I tell a story

Yeah. >> Okay. We're holding the fifth uh the sixth year, right? Shia number six, right? Shia number six, which in this is page. We finished yesterday. We finished yesterday. We're holding Okay. This series is dedicated in loving memory of Rabbi Benavik in everlasting loving memory. Amen. Also dedicated by Ezra David Phillip in honor of the Rebim the world over. Also dedicated in memory of Hana Kana Based on her yard the 14th day of Shvat and for Raflema for Binyam Ben Yehudis and for Rifka Esester Basana and thank you to Hashem for all the blessings and the miracles. Amen. So now we go to the next step. He continues the mimer after everything explained till now he continues. Now he can continue to quote a piece of the mime and explain it. The whole thing that was being the that one of the main points that was being communicated was that a genuine teacher communicates to the student not only what's called in the language of but also and not only but also which means three things. One is nimi which is the messages, the ideas, the information, the insights, the perspectives that become integrated fully and internalized into the mind and the heart and the soul of the student. He owns them. He grasps them. He contains them. It becomes his. It's so good and it's so effective that he doesn't even need the teacher anymore because what do I need this for? I got it. That's how good of a teacher he is. Right? The best of teachers is the teacher that after he said it, you don't even know why did you need him. It was so obvious. It was so simple. Sure. That that that that that's fatimi that you you own it. Huh? Like you >> like me? >> The way I got here. >> Yeah. The way you get it. So it's it's that's that's success, right? It was so successful. I don't even need you anymore. What do I need you for? I got it. It's it's in my kishkas. Of course, it's clear. It's obvious that's what a real effective communication is, right? The Gmorra says that uh the deep when you learn because it it becomes his becomes his. It's mine. I own it. That's you grasp it. You know, you got the ball in your hands and here you got like it says inflated in your mind. there's a deeper element. It's called Makarov. He allows the student to also feel that there's something he's not getting. And that's also part of that's also part of teaching. Part of teaching is I'm not just dumbing down and giving just a few little percent and oh, I have it. There's also what I don't have. That's the real that you're also giving. Because if you want to really give, you're not just dumbing down. Not you have to do it with a but in that there's also something deeper and it may take 40 years for him to integrate that. So during those 40 years he knows that he doesn't know or he says he feels that he doesn't know there's this it's mach it's coming down but it's still mak means it's it's above it's above my pay grade it's above above my caleb but that's makar that's like the difference between food and lvush maz is yours becomes yours it's not food anymore it used to be food now it's your bloodstream it's your hopefully it's your bloodstream sometimes it's your fat sometimes it's your glucose that depends on what you had for the food. But at some point it's it morphs from into your own internal energy. That's what happens to it. And that's what it says in Tanya. It says in your in my stomach says in my stomach. It's not stump cute poetry. You ters in my stomach in my intestines. That is what food is on a biological level. Is on a on a soul level. That's what it is. Yeah. In my intestines. It's now be that's what digestion really means. Digest that's what good digestion is. Good digestion means it breaks apart the food that it becomes completely integrated. For that you need a digestive system that takes a piece of food and breaks it apart. That's what the dav is supposed to do. He has to take the piece of food and if it's a 2-year-old you have to give one baby foody and a 10-year-old and based on the person's blood type and based on the person's allergies and based on the person's physiological makeup. Then there is lvushim. are close to you. They they they have a measurement that's based on your body, but they're mak that's a fork. Then you have bias. buys his mak the real teacher who wants to give everything also gives those things that he doesn't know that he doesn't know that the student doesn't know that he doesn't know and that's the in other words he's giving those things in the of the not only of but also not only of like that's the mak that comes of direct light but there's that which comes and then there's the mak mak means it can't It's beyond that's talking about so even though it's still called because you're talking about that's why it's called of there's the of the but then there's a cat that's called the of now how is this given how is this given he said he doesn't know that he doesn't know so now we goes to the next. You thought the summary is going to go for an hour and a half. Okay, good. >> These insights so to speak, these truths which we call that are not it's not in the realm of revelation. It's from a deeper place in this in the teacher himself. They they they're communicated but they're communicated through coverups through garments that actually block the insight. [laughter] This is where you see that this is where it becomes uh this is where we were explaining in the previous shootum in different language. This also comes to you but it comes to you not by coming to you. I'm not giving you I'm giving you actually something that's blocking the information [laughter] means there are there are covers there are lavushim that can that can communicate things if you want to look at the sun so you have to be able to have the proper instruments to be able to look at the sunshim are clothes means garments garments that cover up they conceal master means they block right from the word hester lester they hide They hide it and that is communicating what? What does this mean? An example for this would be metaphors, parables or even more. You know what are um riddles. Riddles. Metaphors and riddles. What do we mean in somebody's telling a metaphor? What when I mean a metaphor here? It's like stories, parables, right? Somebody could hear the story. Oh, it's a four-year-old reads a story. Very nice story, entertaining, enthralling. I may not even see any wisdom here, any sel, any revolutionary insights. When the rav is giving a shir, he's conveying ideas. This is called gillu. You're conveying what you think, what you believe, what is the truth of of life, what is the truth of whatever you want to talk about here. You're an entertainer. [laughter] Fun. There's a play. It's a show. You're giving you're giving then is not even a story weird weird riddles. This is really the idea behind all the parables and the stories of his he has three mish which is called mish which means misham parables which is not called misham but the whole thing is one long story. Not only it's a long story that in secular literature is seen as a very very interesting fascinating very sensual graphic story of love and then [snorts] you see it clearly the Mishna says that they wanted to hide it and there was a question of hashim belongs in the what's what doesn't even have hem's name in it migillas asked her at least is a story of providence. Jews was shashim the is busy describing the in every single detail every part of his body and the same conversely and they're searching and running and here going and going and then he's running after and she's running after them and then he disappears and she disappears it's it's it's quite a story so there was a question does it belong to the protested you think the whole is kaidesh kadash kesh kadasha why couldn't you just start off say listen I want to talk about an idea about that fine nobody would have a nobody has a tina on that be like be like the other it's not like that but it's and the same is true it's fascinating but it's all it's it's not so much a story but it's a reflections about people and about life and the vanities of life and people who pursue richness and and and and their love and their wealth and their validation and their power and their assets and brilliance and power. I mean all all of these things. So what's the idea here this in the when you look at the masham themselves themselves without commentary you don't see you don't see wow like this is [snorts] what a profound idea and that's why in the stories of you have secrets and the highest intimate um truths much more than in the of but it's completely not recognizable. In other words, it can be completely stripped from it and it's just a cute story, an entertaining story. >> Huh? What? >> Oh, basil. Very good. Of course, it's nicker. I'm I'm I'm giving you a [snorts] truth. I'm telling you a law. I'm giving you a perspective behind it. The reason, this reason, that element in the in the it could just be seen as entertainment, but really it's much deeper. Why is it deeper? The reason is because the of the this is in the language of the of the core of the issum. It's it's essentially a secret. It's not a secret because you're not ready for it. We learned it's means it's essentially something that's beyond revelation. It can't be articulated. Not because I don't want to. Not because you're you're you're lazy, not because the IQ. It's because it's an Indian that's higher than Gilo. It can't come to revelation. Not because I don't want to because what YOU'RE REVEALING IS NOT that the moment it comes to revelation, if it comes into that flow, it's not the it's already compromising it. like [laughter] yeah that's how does the essence come out through my absent-mindedness I'm I'm I'm I'm unconscious I'm unconscious why can't I be conscious because what's coming into consciousness is already defined by consciousness IF IT'S DEFINED BY consciousness it's beautiful but it's the eye that's defined by consciousness that's not pure infinity so how does it come out so say it doesn't come out no it comes out. But it doesn't come out in a way that anybody says it comes out. It's a secret. It remains a secret even after it comes out because it because it retains its purity. But how does it retain its purity? It's secret. It's secrecy. Well, there's an expression in Yiddish and Gansro. It's a secret that the whole city knows about. Gansro knows about it. Yeah. So, how does it remain? The way it comes out is through a concealment. It comes through something that's blocking the revelation, right? Like we spoke yesterday in the Shia number five in a person. The person is disconnected. There's no revelation. There's no flow. I'm completely disconnected. I'm on my own. Get off that cliff. All the strings have been severed. The umbilical cord has been severed. This is absolute concealment. There's no flow. There's no connection. There's no gilly whatsoever. What? You're not telling me. You're not communicating with ME ANYMORE. COMMUNICATION STOPPED. THERE'S NO COMMUNICATION. Story time. This year she is story time. It's to put people to sleep. Story time. No [laughter] in in in in in the niml. We're not just talking about stories. It's the it's the idea that it's it's not communicating anything in in in a paradoxical way. That's the only thing that captures the the the deepest essence because the isd means it's aloof. It's from the word. It's aloof from any type of definition. So even the way it comes out when I want to communicate it, it can't be through communicating it in a way that it's revealed as communication because then it's not the the way it comes out is it's deep words. It remains in a way of it remains aloof. It remain huh it remains essentially concealed. It's he says in Yiddish in the original it's like sealed it's closed off because it's whole isdah and it's almos it's concealed in itself that's what we call deeper and deeper higher and higher less less less less giloy all to the core essence how do how do I have that I could only embody it I can't manifest it. I I can only embody it. Meaning I can only be it. I can't reveal it. The way this the way this is nisgala is not through. It's nisgala through the concealment. It becomes you. It's not communicated to you. It's it remains a secret. How does it remain a secret? It's a secret that it's even being communicated. You don't know what I'm talking about. [snorts] This is what the May says. The Reb starts explaining here. What does this mean? What's the connection to stories and metaphors and parables? What's this? Let's just start telling stories. What's the says bazam the is the so here we come it's a fascinating piece very unusual in aimed is the of the world so every Indian gets illuminated with a different depth we see in life that people are enthralled by stories that's a fact as somewhat of a communicate. I can tell you from experience this talking and talking and talking and talking and talking. Sometimes it's nice, sometimes it's boring. But stories have a special place in people's hearts. Most people will say because everybody's ADHD on steroids, especially in 2026. Their attention span used to be a half a minute, then it went down to 12 seconds, and now it's somewhere between two and 3 seconds. And Mahad Minahadrin don't even have a millisecond for you. So therefore, if there's no stories constantly, [laughter] you're done. You're finished. You know, go get another job. You know, go buy a nursing home and run nursing homes. Over there, you don't have to tell stories. Just collect your checks. But if you want in the real world, you want to communicate to people, you need stories. So, it's almost like a it's a kulch. It's a weakness. What do real people have to tell stories? If you're interested and I'm interested and you want to learn, so what's what's the stories? That's the way we understand it. But it's not so simple. It's not so simple. The truth is you'll see even here he's talking about butd you'll see that some of the greatest influence that influences society is through stories through novels and not even real stories. Sometimes you have a real story. It's fiction. It's a fictional story. And people are molded. They're they're molded by it. Societies, cultures, individuals. I don't know how many of you are readers or you used to be readers. >> Huh? >> I have a dream. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Monday is uh the day. Yeah. So here we have the truth is that there's something much much deeper about stories. That's what he's going to explain. Like in everything in the world there's so it could be used in different ways. There's the way it's in the source in the way it comes down. But the nikuda here is that there's something very powerful about why people are drawn to stories and why itself the whole beginning of is all stories. In fact, Rashi himself the opening rashi is should have started. It's a book of mitzvah. It's not a book of stories. You want story books, write story books. The whole it's all stories. Not only that even says in in a few places all the mitzvah in also communicated through a story. We don't have Judaism doesn't have a book where God says okay I want to tell you the laws of the land the rules of this people and I want to tell you my perspective on life purely no it's all STORIES EVEN MAID IS a story it's a story they were standing at a mountain this is what happened this is what he said even all THE MITZVAH HASHEM TOLD ma even the mitzvah which are already laws they're even that's communicated all within a context of a story but much of t is just stories stories. It's just stories. What's the engineer? So a pashus he could say entertainment. There's lessons. But it's not the communication of tell me what you want. Tell me what you feel about it. Don't tell me a story. Tell me what God wants. At least tell me. I want you want me to do this. No, I'm just telling you stories. So a pastor, you could say you want TO TEACH 5-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN. So you have beautiful stories in headf and his brothers AND THE fine the frogs are flying the that's that's what you're going to say but here this is saying it's a whole different you have a an idea is an idea mean any truth in life that's What means any truth in life you could communicate it to somebody you could you could explain it but here you have a challenge what's the challenge if the zulus means the other person is less developed in terms of comprehension. [snorts] So now what may satisfy for you you could see one line and you get it you may have to talk for about you may talk for an hour you need why you need to explain so you need a lot of you need words and explanations and insights and proofs and ex all these types of things it's called if you look at Mishna and Gumarra what's in Mishna in six lines you're having Garra it takes a few daff what happened and the garra is all explaining the Mishna the Mishna should have said this and why does he need a second example and this should have been the first example and what's the source of this and what's the logic behind it and it doesn't make sense and he's contradicting so how did the Mishna do all this and it took hundreds of years it's not like the was written the day after the Mishna the Mishna was finished by edited by around 100 years after the around 150 after the common era around 100 years a little more after the gam finishes a few hundred years later in the fifth century or sixth century Talmud and then Talmud and it's all an explanation every piece of gam on the Mishna so you have a little Mishna and then you have a whole of it could be five dam one what's so the says thehat is the Mishna was written was one paragraph was enough they got They saw everything there. But then comes the generation later, they're learning the Mishna and they're not getting it. There's too many questions. There's too many mysteries. There's too many enigmas. There's a lack of clarity. You're trying to teach people how to live. They can't know. So takes the Mishna and what does it do? It expands it. It elaborates, right? It takes it and it gives you much more. That's what it does. This is all a communication where I'm actually communicating an idea. The question is how many tools, how many isis, how much time I need in order to be able to communicate it. So you have to know the grade level, you have to know the IQ, you have to know the EQ, you have to know the audience, you have to know their background, you have to know their capacity on many levels. How to communicate it and communicate it effectively until it becomes theirs. In this itself, there's there's there's things they really get. There's things they don't get, but they feel they could get. There's things they have to toil till they get. There's things they have to work for weeks and months and maybe 40 years until they get. But that's all part of communication. But then you have a a truth that itself not because the person is not ready. That's the vert means it's extremely secretive. It's extremely concealed. So even the way you communicate it is not through the regular tools of I'm going to explain you more. Let me explain it more. I'll give you another explanation for it. I'll use more words and more words and more words and more words and more words. You still don't get it. Doesn't work that way. Why? Because the hisgalus also has to be since the issum. So the way you get it is also through concealment. You can't know you're getting it. [laughter] If you know you're getting it, you're not getting this. So this you get the sense the issum if it's something that the isu. So you can get it through giloy. The tools you use to transport it transport it have to fit that which you're transporting. So can be used to transport Gillui. But when you want to transport something that's so you can't transport it through Gil, you need transported through stimos. That itself is also concealed. So you don't even know you're getting it, but you're getting it. So how do you get it? So this comes to you not through more explanation, expansive and many explanations. That's all beautiful in the first level the gilo like so what do you do here stories parables riddles it's not you're not explaining the with more expansiveness bringing it down a lower level, making it simpler, diluting it. That's all taking it and making it palpable to the person. So you take the piece of meat, you cut it into little pieces, you grind it into baby food. That's all taking it and making it palpable, explaining it more, giving more is giving more background. Yeah. Giving context, all these types of things which are amazing. This is what teaching is. This is what real teaching is here. Huh. Oh boy. [laughter] >> Here the beat is an external. What are you even trying to say? Oh, he's he's telling us a story. [panting] Or if a riddle, a riddle, he's bored. In other words, you're talking about something else, but this captures it and through it the student can can get it. Furthermore, if it's something truly deep, sometimes one even doesn't help. One mshall doesn't help or not even two or three. You need many. It says spoke 3,000 parables. He had 3,000 stories. How does everybody learn this? that had a repertoire. Every good speaker has a repertoire of jokes and stories. There's usually 300 Jewish jokes. You know, 50 about lawyers, 50 about doctors, 100 about marriage, another hundred about rabbis, and the rest about your mother-in-law. And they get recycled. You know what I mean? So had 3,000 gald, you know, parables, metaphors. You know, by the time he finished the 3,000, everybody forgot the first one. So the next year he could pull it out again, right? the [snorts] guy who once said, you know, a [laughter] a joke you could repeat, a story you could repeat once in two years. A joke you could repeat once a year twice in the same sermon. [snorts] So Malik has 3,000 3,000. In other words, he's a master of parables. The man has 3,000 could be 300,000. He has up his sleeve a parable for everything. You know the dub had a mushel for everything. They once asked the dub, "How do you have a mushel for everything?" I think he said, "I'll give you a mushel." And he gave the mush, you know, the mush. Yeah. With with the arrows, the archers. Huh. The guy always got it right. He got it on the targets. He said, "HOW DO YOU ALWAYS GET IT RIGHT?" He says, "I don't start off with making a circle and shooting the arrow." Yeah. I first put in the arrow and then I make a circle. [laughter] So the says here, this actually comes from the mag. It's a whole different doesn't mean he had collect the stories. He had a file of thousands of stories. The is something else, a whole different he had 3,000 for one. The depth of he needed for that 3,000. Every Marshall was a niml the next level. You understand? He gave a mushel that people understood. [snorts] But but that mushel itself was too too too abstract. So the mushel had to be enclosed in another mushel and in another mushel. So mushel 3000 was for the nimshell that's beyond for the idea that's beyond. But mushel 3000 was too abstract. Nobody knew what he's talking about. That was also a niml. So he did mushel 2,999. Nobody knew what he's talking about. So we're going to go to 2998. Finally mush I'm not going to go now down 3,000. But finally HE CAME TO MSHEL TWO. Yeah it was lower than three but still nobody understood. THEN CAME MSH ONE. AH NOW WE GOT IT. SO mshel one explain TWO THREE FOUR FIVE TILL you got to most people don't need 3,000 [laughter] stories for the idea. Now you'll say what what type of idea in the world do you need 3,000 parables and each parable is a parable for the previous parable? It's not 3,000 different cute parables. He had a repertoire of parables. No, each marshall was a marshall for the niml higher than it how how deep. So you have so this is yeah was It gives you a ham. It's it's and the the the mush is 3,000. It's not stop could have been six once. You're telling me 3,000. Say 6,000. Say 2,000. Fine. [laughter] I don't know the 3,000. I know the 1,000. Says it's fascinating. saysim of the Gar says over there that there was somebody who said over you heard this from was a student of this is after so the Gar says and said had 300 malam only about foxes and and we're left over with three we know three of the 300 and over there tells us the marshall with the fox. So 3,000 300 on foxes and said we're left with three. So the is saying you needed 3,000 for the mayor 300 and for us these michum would be superfluous. So that's why we're left over with three Michelam. Yeah, I hear [snorts] it's brought 3,000 dfka because the three worlds there's bria there's mamealik was trying to communicate the truth of the infinity between is so beyond that it's not you know give me another vert it's not I don't know How many of you relate? But probably at least one person will relate or two people will relate. Maybe even three, whatever. I'm not going to whoever it relates relates more or less. But in the I want you to understand here. There's things that you don't understand because you just don't understand yet. A little more life experience, a little more wisdom, a little more maturity, a little more humility, a little more vulnerability, a little more hanging out there, hanging around, you know, right people. You'll understand. Then there's things that you could sit a hundred years, you could sit 200 years, you could sit 300 years, you could sit at the feet of the greatest masters and you could be a good guy, earnest, genuine. You can't it's not it's it's like there's sounds that I can't hear. Not because I'm deaf. I could I could I could perfect my ears. There's these colors I can't see. Not my eyes are working. You can have 2020 eyesight. It's not be your It's not be the barrier between what the second anama leaves the gof, we don't have a the second anama leaves the goof. We don't even begin to understand. Even in this world, there's sometimes some walls that go down and everything I knew about life is like as big as a trellin bean. It's it's it's all inspiring. It's all inspiring. Back to my metaphor of the chicken, the egg. My entire philosophy of life could literally be stuck in an egg and it could be for a hundred years and in that egg I'm very successful and maybe even 7 billion people might agree that I'm successful and yet you go one notch of consciousness higher and everything is a little egg they say the it's it's humbling it's all inspiring and the moment you the moment you experience that you you you may have to go back to that egg because that's what God wants but you just never look at it any it's just it's different that's we're not talking about communication I'll give you another it's not another [snorts] wanted to communicate a different world so that's the 3,000 m 300 we are left with three. So why could just expl what are you giving me shalom for? You have to entertain me because everybody's bored. He's saying no because a different it's a different type of he was trying to communicate. And that's what he says. This is all the stories of they all look like stories externally. It's just a cute story. Ysef and his brothers his brothers hate Ysef. They throw him into a pit. It's very dramatic. It's sad. It's dramatic. It's enthralling. You read every year and you're like, "OMG, don't do this again this year." The was once fabanging and he was talking about what's happening in he said the worst thing is that the leaders of Israel don't learn from their mistakes they already gave up territory they saw what happened it created terror bloodshed why don't you learn from your mistakes so he said when he was in a kid in it's a story we're talking about stories there was a kid so Friday the teacher would do learn you're talking about Ukraine early 1900s 1904 1905 1906 whatever those years before the revolution so he says his teacher was learning with them. Every year they would learn the parish Friday they go through the para. So uh he says the so so you know there's that moment where Ysef is looking for his brothers and the man tells him they went to Dson. So Ysef follows them to Dyson and as Ysef is walking they see they say to each other heal right let's kill him and throw him into one of the pits and that's when saves him and says let's don't kill him just throw him into the pit. So Ysef is walking. Yeah. And then when Ysef comes they strip him. So the Reb says one of his and he says one of the boys in my class starts crying and he screams out. He says, "YOU SAW WHAT THEY DID LAST YEAR. WHY ARE YOU GOING AGAIN?" And said, he calms them down. He continues the story. Ysef comes. They strip him from his tunic. They throw him into the pit. The kid screams out, "Yo, now you deserve it. YOU WENT AGAIN. YOU DESERVE IT. YOU knew what's coming. Now it's your fault. I don't have empathy anymore. We're done. Now you just you're a mazist. You're you're abusing yourself. Stop looking for empathy." [laughter] This was the story that he told to illustrate what he was failing about the leaders of Israel in their relationships with their neighbors. Yeah. [laughter] But it was a good teacher. It was a real story. It wasn't stump was going to his brothers. He went last year. He was going again this year. But is it's essentially a story like a martial. It's like a parable here. It's not a fictional parable. It's a real story, but it's the same idea. Furthermore, the whole is called and now she brings it to the whole the whole is called a mush. Fascinating. Really, that's all you have to say about GOD'S WISDOM, GOD'S. NO, IT'S A MARSHALL. It's but they capture and and embody and manifest and bring out those things that can't be revealed through regular understanding and comprehension the way it comes out all the of which is clearly communicating perspectives ideas insight Whether it's whether it's whatever it is God's perspective on any area how you should live how what marriage what happens when a PERSON IS BORN WHATEVER IT is every from all the mitzvah over there there's obviously and more you learn you learn you learn there's more there's and there's more and more and more but there's something that's communicated through the through the stories. What is that? That which can't be communicated through the regular revelation of ideas. >> Huh? [laughter] >> Ask your question. I mean, but you need because the other person is not on the level yet. You need to d it down and then are we saying here that but there is a different >> that can only be explained the must be explained through a mush. Yeah. >> Why? >> Why we never understand? >> Because so that's the idea. You have a sometimes people tell a story to illustrate. Yeah. Always give me malamar. You don't really need a mush for it. It's an idea. If you want to take out something from somebody else, you need to bring proof. In other words, status quo is a logical idea because if not, there's pure chaos. You're wearing a sweater. No, it's mine. You see what I just did? I just gave him Why? Why did I talk about your sweater? Why didn't I just relieve it in the world of The answer is the fact that I spoke about his sweater makes it much more power. You don't need to talk about sweaters. It's true about sweaters. It's true about homes. It's true about watches. It's true about everything in the world. Whether you own a yacht or you own a plane or you own a house or you own $1, you own a quarter, you own a sweater or even a cup of coffee. But when you give a mushel, what happens? It's relatable because it's the physical world, right? So you always give a if I'm if I'm wearing a jacket and you come and you take the jacket and you say it's mine and we go to a what's the going to say? If I was wearing the jacket, it's mine. Say it's yours, prove it. If you could prove it, you could bring two or you have a contract, whatever it is. I'm living in my house. >> Huh? I just give another what should I do? So it's not that it's a that you can't explain through it makes a lot of sense right it's a principle in the world 2 plus 2 equals 4 I need to take two tissues and say two plus two equals four I mean I could do that why do you do that because when people see something physically it's just much more tangible that's all a marshall that's a tool to explain and that's the reason why people tell stories and why you make ill why you illustrate things everybody understands in in in you have a It's a principle in Allah. It's a fascinating idea. When things are in their natural space, it's like 50/50, even if it's one to 10, even if it's not the majority. So, right away, you have a Marshall. What's the Marshall? There's 10 stores. One store sells ta meat. Nine store sell kosher meat. And you find a piece of meat in the street. Statistically, what is it? It's kosher nine stores one store that's all if it's separated from the stores but if the suffik was born inside the store you have to understand how that works but when it's in so you why do we give a marshall the gar gives a marshall oft everything why do you give these mash this is all to make things more tangible because an idea could still be abstract even though some people don't need it some people need more mash more mash that's all mash Shalom stories that are here to bring down the more more but that's not the here of the mush of the stories in that's all I'm giving you a mushel to explain an idea so it's just like another lavush it's another it's another h way of presenting the idea I'm packaging it this one packages it in ISIS without a mshel and this one packages it in a mushel to make it clearer hopefully to make it clear and sometimes it gets more confusing but if he knows what he's But here he's talking about a different Indian. Here he's talking about Helmmy. Here he's talking about the site. What's this? You just remember the story. [laughter] Don't worry, I don't have 3,000 m for this. Huh? [snorts] >> Huh? I think at least one aspect. Why do people really love stories? That's why do people really love stories? [snorts] As I said before, you could say the entertaining aspect, it's interesting. You know, there's a plot. That's all true, but it's something much deeper. There's something about yourself >> that you communicate through the story. Huh? >> Your your identity. It's a story about yourself. >> There's a story. Somebody writes a novel. Yeah. Just giving an example. He didn't. You'll see. I told you before some of these books, some of these novels in the in the in the world have had tremendous influence. They they defined cultures. I mean, you're Russian, right? You take people like uh Toltoy and and Dostki [laughter] and and the same is true in every culture. Yeah. Thousands novels that sometimes are thousand pages, 1500 pages, 2,000 pages, war and peace and all these books. One second. But here's a question. Why don't you just Why don't you just instead of writing me 1500 pages with wars and details and and for chapters and chapters you're describing features of people and the ambiance in the room when she walked in at 8:00 at night and he was sitting at the table and sipping wine. Leave me alone just because you think I'm a bored soul. I'm 18year-old depressed teenager. I have nothing to do. I want to take off school so I'll be in bed for three weeks. I'll read your novel 2,000 pages. Why don't you just write an essay and tell me what you believe about life? Tell me what do you feel about the human struggle? About the inner war and peace. War and peace is officially Napoleon and and and and Russia and Thesar 1812. Write about really you want to write about the inner war. So write to me. Tell me what you think. You want to have ideas about marriage. Tell me what you think about marriage. What you think about men? What you think about women? >> First of all, it'll be much shorter. Second of all, you'll get to the point. [laughter] You You'll give me the new what's what do you No. I have to learn 2,000 pages that you don't even officially don't even have a message, so to speak. >> Well, so what is it? The truth is that that's the way you communicate yourself in a much deeper way. If I would just communicate ideas, I could be very authentic. But what am I communicating? I'm communicating an idea, another idea. So the question is how well I could communicate it. How many isis I have? This is all communicating the is you're communicating your gill, not your helm. You're communicating ideas that can be communicating. You're not giving me yourself in a paradoxical way in the story where you're not communicating ideas. You're giving something deeper. You're giving yourself even though you're not talking about yourself. It's a fictional story about somebody who lived 400 years ago. It's not even a word about yourself. Sometimes you're writing about your own upbringing, okay? Your own memoir here. You're not even talking about you. But somehow in these external conversations between two brothers or two sisters or two people or two leaders, what are you really conveying? You're conveying even parts of yourself by the way that are unconscious to you. There's even things that you don't even realize you're conveying, but you come out there. SO WHY DON'T YOU JUST talk about it? tell me these are my feelings about life. These are my deepest passions. It wouldn't come out. That wouldn't come out. What would come out is things I'm passionate about. Maybe my political beliefs or philosophical beliefs or feelings about life or God or whatever it is, everybody in their own way, which is nice. It's nice. >> That's his imag imagination. His creativity, >> his own creativity is coming. His own imagination. He's tuning into places that he himself can't articulate. If you would ask him to write an essay about this, real writers feel this. There's something that comes through their through their all real artists feel it. Athletes and and musicians we spoke about I always mentioned from the mag right. When the managan becomes the niggan the real writer something else is coming out. So one SECOND COMING TALK ABOUT IT. YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT YOUR DEEPEST PASSIONS TELL ME. want to tell me what you feel about God. SO TALK ABOUT IT. WHAT WHAT WHAT ARE YOU GIVING me poems? You know if was written today, you know what would happen to Malik? Trust me, none of his kids would get normal and none of his daughters would be allowed in any seminary. Even the most modern seminaries, [laughter] he would be done. >> [snorts] >> I was once uh I was once writing an article. So I needed I was quoting Shashidim. So I needed an English translation just to translate. So I took up somebody has an English translation. I opened it and you know thank god I know Hebrew and I'm I'm like this is not translation like this guy and then I realized that they're not translating it. They're writing the midrashim. Rashi explains they're writing in the translation. So I was wondering then I look at the introduction. They said since rashi says thatim can't be understood aliphat. So therefore we didn't even translate it. We translated it based on rashi. So I thought to myself could have also had this brilliant idea. [laughter] I saw somebody wrote an article about it. His name was Kallet. So he wrote that he wrote a joke that there was a Jew in Va doesn't swag. So he translated William Shakespeare into Yiddish. Romeo and Juliet is a play by William Shakespeare and he translated to Yiddish. So he writes like this. Romeo and Juliet from William Shakespeare translated and enhanced by that's it. So by yours truly could have done that. [laughter] So what's the devart is if the writer does that he's only tapping into his not of course I'm just using I'm using a muscle in order to [laughter] he's talking here about but but I want you to understand the art he's not getting the core so you'll say what do you mean IF IT'S YOUR CORE TELL IT TO ME I CAN'T TELL IT TO YOU CUZ I CAN'T EVEN TELL IT TO MYSELF YOU CAN'T TELL IT TO YOURSELF TELL TRY TELLING IT to yourself it's a secret by YOU TOO IT'S S because you don't you're afraid to tell me because you're not vulnerable. Even if you're vulnerable, it's not because you're not vulnerable. It's not because you're inauthentic. It's not because you're dishonest because it's those elements that are not defined. That's what etsim is. It's not because you're a it's not because you don't want to communicate. I would love to communicate. These are things that are not communicable. They remain secrets even when they're communicated. So how do you communicate them? So either you're detached from them and that's the of the is all a mush. It's not this is all a martial. He's not he's not trying to talk about stories here. I mean he is but you understand the vert. >> It's the greatest martial Hashem wants to give atmos. So he starts telling you stories and the truth is you see it. Read the story of Adam and Kava eating from the tree. Nobody knows what's going on in that story. But every year there's more in that story. You could read take up Kish. You'll see gets thrown into the pit. Nobody knows what's going on. Why do I would never think of throwing my brother into a pit? You would. People have issues with brothers. People have issues. [laughter] You read the story. YOU COULD SAY, "YEAH, THEY HATE HIM. THEY'RE JEALOUS. THEY HAD A He had a colorful cashmere sweater from century 21. I don't know why they couldn't buy their own shine." Huh? And you could do it that way. Yeah. and there was hatred in the family and you learn from there that you shouldn't show favoritism to a kid and that's also on audit but you read the story and you know there's something here and eating from the tree kindness killing he yakov going stealing the blessings what's happening every year there's a something new in that story something is right is now taking his kid to be slaughtered the man preached for a hundred years that god is against killing people, certainly your own kids, anybody, and also your own kids. And now God says exactly what we're going to do. Time to slaughter your kid. Why don't you just tell me what you want me to know? Say, you want to say, say, you want to say, the answer is there's that you can't give over through giving it over. You can't not because you don't want to because it's not be that the moment you do it that way. It's not that. It's a secret by me too. >> So how does the story capture it? The story captures it because it doesn't capture it. The story doesn't say I'm capturing it. It's almost like in a roundabout secretive way. >> Huh? Yeah, >> it's embodied intelligence. >> You have >> Okay, you'll give theis static you have static truths, right? Let's say a mathematic static truth. Then you have wisdom. It's eternal eternal truths that are that are there's no beginning. There's no end to these things. >> Yeah. >> And therefore and they're sus certainly you can try to describe you can try to reveal them but there's still going to be a hidden part of it. And therefore the only way the proper way to describe them is through the mush because it it reflects the actual truth. The truth is hidden and the truth is eternal. The truth is never ending. So therefore the mush and then if that mushel doesn't do it then you got to give another one another one. >> Yeah. He said you cannot communicate infinity through the >> exactly >> through the >> if you're communicating infinity like you communicate facts right static truth like you said >> he said yeah said >> it's huh >> it's very significant to do that but you're communicating something that could be communicated in that world but you're also defining it right away and the moment you're defining it right away you cut off. You cut it off from that which is it's infinite wisdom. It's not just a factual. It's not just a factual information. Even if it's a factual idea, even ideas just like there's a fact. I'm going to tell you what time it is or what the weather now in Miami is or what's happening in Iran, right? It's a fact. And then there's there's truths that are also facts. Ideas are also facts. They're not facts. Maybe physical, but they're also facts. Mathematical truth, cosmological truth. Let's say I'm right. Let's say I'm not. It's truth. I could talk about the sun. We could talk about the moon. We could talk about stars. We could talk about atoms. It's amazing. And for there you need and more. And when you have the infinite truths, what you call the wisdom of life. The moment I put it into these words that words I already just I gave something but it's not that. So how do you give it? So you can't give it. So you give it through something that is not saying anything about it. It's it's it's that he calls it's through something alien, something separate. In a way, somebody else could say, "I don't even know what you would just wasted your 2,000 pages and 20 years of your life. I don't know why you did that. You could have made money. You could have done something productive with your life." But really, what was put in here in that in that alien garment that's not it's not communicating that over there? You put in all that wisdom. >> But how did you put it in? You didn't put it in bed. You put it in bed. >> Huh? >> Now the itself has it own >> and you could learn read it again and again and again and again and every year it's a different story even though it's the same story. Well, what are you reading again? Because you communicated if the comm community we're talking about the author. If the author really communicated that, so then it's infinite. And that's what you called embodied wisdom. It's notformational wisdom. Informationational wisdom is give me information. It's another statistic, another truth. It's facts. >> Torah is not a paleology book. >> It's not what >> notology. It's a way story of the entire Yeah, >> it's not it's not >> what's the word you use? Ta is not what >> it's not a study book. >> Oh for paleontology or you know cosmology. >> Yeah. Ta is not a study book of information. You have that but that's not the that's the but if that if if if it's reduced to that it it's it's it's so not that it's the wisdom of the universe it's the timeless wisdom of infinity and that you need to embody it remains a secret >> that's what says wisdom and >> so when you say Right? On one level you can understand it. It's deep ideas about society and about people and about and so that's true and you learn it and you learn more and you learn more. Right? You could learn and then there's more and more and more and more. But then you have something that's given out in the story is even more than how could that be? Well, the story is deeper than how could the story be deeper than God says this is what I care about. I'm going to give you now I care about it. Look at the punishment skill. There's a death here without it. Well, this this this this matters to me and I have a shabas and learn it for 300 years and they're still learning and you learn it at and because the is also the good. So, how could you say in the stories you have something that doesn't have really because the four-year-old understands it? Because I could say it Friday at the because I could say it at the table in the parish sheet. So, now the story is it's a cute ver that's nice. But that's the that it's not that way. >> Yeah. It's the tool to understand everything. >> Huh? >> You want more. You can't get enough of the when it's right when it's expressing wisdom. >> Yeah. So if you go back and eating from that tree, right? It's a few [laughter] there was a snake he told God told you not to touch. He said God told you not to eat. Yeah. He said don't eat. Don't touch. And then Kava took the fruit. She gave it to her husband. They ate. And God said where are you? Boom. Okay. So what just happened? You want to tell me something? God tell me. You want to talk about fruits? You want to talk about trees? But in that story of eight sadas, we read the story and then what happened there? What's the tree and what did they eat and what was the snake and why was God upset and who cares and why are there curses and what's every nuda here? What is it really? It's not information. It's the atmus of an and it's communicated through a tree. It's communicated through a snake. It's communicated through serpents. It's communicated through a wife convincing her husband to eat it and he eating it and then hiding in a garden and God says, "Why you hiding?" Ah, and oh, you're naked. Oh, wow. Okay. Beautiful. [laughter] What does it mean to be naked? Those words. They were naked and now they're embarrassed for their nakedness. But just those words. Well, what's contained in that? Every mimer that talks about self-consciousness goes back to that story [laughter] who spoke about self-consciousness. They were naked. They didn't have clothes. They weren't embarrassed. So you could have just said before they had you weren't self-conscious. After they say you're self-conscious and then you would put it into that way, okay, self-consciousness, whatever that means. >> Huh? >> Of course, the risk is you can also just see naked is naked. I'm not wearing clothes and that's it. You strip it from all that because because it's not conveying anything but by not conveying anything it's conveying everything >> huh >> it's through the >> so it's not a wisdom that I'm getting like okay now I understand what do you call it emotional wisdom what did you say before >> the emotional intelligence You embody it. You You like experience it. And there's always more more and more and more of experiencing. And that's why the mushel can have another mush, another mush. Let's use other words. It can have layers. The eight sadas, how many mash, how many mush are in eight sadas? Not 3,000. 3 million. You understand? Every year I see another mush of Malik. We're looking at 3,000 m as 3,000 different stories. NO, IT'S THE SAME MUSHEL. 3,000 could be one story. He said >> it's not necessarily linear. It's could be one marshall. It's like the you know the layers of a tree, the rings of the tree shows you how old the tree is. You understand? That's what it is. >> From the human. >> Huh? [laughter] >> He said from a human to the spider on the wall of France Kafka. The [snorts] difference of course is who the author is. The author is putting in his atsm into the story. No question. If the author is a no, [snorts] so it comes out and it affects a society that way. It contaminates a society because he's giving us his secret. He's giving us his energy, his truths. Yeah. His deep his own deepest truths. If it's somebody who's refined and worked out, they're giving over something else. You're getting it. You're getting that energy. You could see the impact at the end of the book where it brings you and then when it's this is this is this is the gill of this is and as a result of that this is the of the person of the author in this case of Hashem that's being that's being communicated. You don't want me to say the word. Okay. and that's what we feel when you when you hear a story when you read a story really that's what the person feels. It's not it's we usually don't articulate it that way like this m it's fascinating how he articulates it but that's really what touches people. It's not just they want a story so like we'll change the topic. It'll be a little less boring. It's much deeper than that. It's inviting them into a different form of wisdom. It's almost I'm not going to communicate anymore. Now it's up to you. Here's a story. Do with it what you want and you will do with it what you want. This is not anymore. Arasher is I'm telling you if you listen you'll get it. If you listen more you'll get it more. If I can explain it more you'll get it more. That's all one frequency of communication which is beautiful and amazing and incredible. That's the frequency of in the world. That's the frequency of information. Hopefully, it's good information. It's true information. It could be science. It could be mathematics. It could be physics. It could be geology. It could be geography. It could it could be botany. It could be agriculture. It could be astronomy. All and it's all it's all the says the only to come to is by studying God's world studying the universe that's what the says that's the way to come to so we're talking here about real information and real and there's more and more and more and more and then you have right that's the whole the whole and different ways of learning there's the information there's logic. There's deeper and deeper and deeper and there's the and there's taking it apart and it's all it's all unbelievably powerful. That's all that's all the gil and then there's something deeper. What's the deeper? Giving his his his essential depth. That's not information. It's like the infinite the infinite truth and that's conveyed not through conveying it because if you convey it, it won't be it. It'll just be a dumbed down version of it. So you convey it through a lavush that is not saying it but yet in a mysterious way it embodies it but the only person who can get that is you. You have to now it's what you will do with the story and that's really based on my own inner work. Huh? This is the right cuz in many ways it was detached. It was like it's not it's not in a flow. Here's a story. What's the story? I don't know. Do with it what you want. And that's why you could have the same story and 50 years later it's a whole new story. The story is the same. The facts are the same. They ate from the tree. Take the burning bush is a good example, right? WHAT'S THIS BURNING BUSH? TELL MOSHA, GO TO MITIM. NO, THERE'S A bush and the bush is NOT BEING CONSUMED. HOW MUCH was said about that snare not being consumed? What is it? TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY. WHAT A BURNING BUSH. I'm he saw a bush and it's not being consumed and it's burnt and he wants to get close. NO, DON'T GET CLOSE. Take off your shoes. You could learn that story every single year. And there's infinite interpretations in that story. >> In the year tkm gimmel 188 1783 there was a vik and minsk. You know the story Minsk is in Lithuania. It was one of the biggest cities of the of of London. Then it was like a >> Bellarus. Yeah. Between Bellarus and Lithuania depends who won the war that Monday. War and peace. War and peace. Right. But Bellarus. Yeah. So Minsk was a one of the big cities where there was tremendous opposition to in the early generations and it was also huge huge lumdom. So the alterba once visited Minsk and they interestingly they asked them to do a public debate. They want to debate him publicly to prove that the are dev they deviated from yiddishkite. So this it's called Yeah. And sat there and you had it was Minsk was was like geniuses, people who learned their whole life. Okay, there's a whole story about what happened the day before. But the is that at the said they have two tus to the BM two huge tus why he destroyed Judaism. The first thing is he was uh he started to talk about the mile of an of simple Jews. Anyway you learning gamar you see thatim are destructive they cause the destruction of the world they are the destruction of so you see so many you can't trust them with anything the all these things are are are the dregs of the Jewish world that's everything and the came and is elevating and glorifying simple Jews on first of all it's wrong they shouldn't be glorified they be d they should be put in their SPOT THEIR WHOLE MILE IS ONLY if they give cover and second of all it denigrates you pick up these people and the other people automatically go down even if you don't even if you don't put them down but BY PICKING THEM UP THEY'RE now they're now the distance is not so deep it's not so profound the second thing their was that the taught that even and that destroys but no is and And the said no need to do this. This is what they told. So listen what said I'm going to tell you a that I heard from my rabbget who heard it from the bos that everything the teaches is what saw at the burning bush. What Mosha saw AT THE BURNING BUSH. THAT'S WHAT THE BMP teaches and this is what he said. So said the from the from the that the Gmorrah says in T is there's two types of trees. There's Elon that makes fruits that represents and then there's trees they don't make fruits and especially a sn which is a short bush and it's a thorn bush. So it represents Jews who are in a much lower level and they have struggles and they're thorny and it's a simple tree. It's a humble tree. It doesn't make pis. up. That's the Now listen. It says that when Mosha saw this, it's on fire and it's not being consumed. So Mosha said, so Rashur means I'm going to go away. You're not going away. You want to go go there. Mosha should say I should go and see. What's means to go away? You remember Rashi? surah of lash says I'm going away from here to get close to there. So he said the said that there's two types of Jews. There's a Jew a real real god and we're talking about who's living it the real thing. He also has a fire to God but his fire consumes the tree. The fire gets qu his his thirst, his passion gets quenched from his he finishes his ah that was a good meal. I was thirsty and I drank and I'm now I'm now hydrated. So the fire was burning. It consumed and it goes out. IT'S GOOD. I'M GOOD. THE FIRE GOT ITS MEAL. IT ATE UP THE LOG. It ate up the tree and I'm good. So the angst, the yearning, the passion never ends. What's in the heart of the fire? In their heart is a fire. They're yearning for for and they don't have the the wisdom and the brilliance and the great accomplishments to be able to quench it. So the fire never stops burning. There's a yearning. There's a there's a quest. There's a pining that never stops. Was the biggest of history. When he saw that he became a balt [clears throat] this created in moa the thing I need to go away from myself. I need to go away from where I am. became this taught the whole of is these two who stripped from all the brilliant spiritual sophistication and wisdom has a fire that will never go out and when Mosha saw that heard [clears throat] he he experienced a different in that made him a bouva what's the about doesn't mean I sinned yesterday about that relative to infinity I need to there's so much to grow >> yeah it was a long long a lot of things happened over there 400 you alite followed alterb 400 you for became of then you talking he built [laughter] 400 you alite So the bash have learned the story of the you understand in it says why did it says why did hashm reveal himself to the snah what was it saw all the going to happen to the Jewish people for all of history the burning bush was a metaphor for history and he saw they won't be destroyed and then the bump saw in the the the yearning of the of the of the ish pashett who's who's yearning for the truth and doesn't have that feeling you know I'm perfect I'm on top of the world I'm the god lad I'm a goam he doesn't have that he remains his heart remains on fire there's there's that incessant yearning and mosha comes about and that's all in that story if god would have given a lecture instead of THIS NOW THANK GOD HE used a burning bush [laughter] You know there's a riddle of of Shimshi. You know the riddle of Shimshin. Shimsh had a riddle. He was once traveling and he was a lion and he ate he ate he he defeated the lion and then he went to the Philistines and he gave them a riddle and whoever would answer the riddle you know he would give them the big reward. So what was the riddle? The riddle was from the eater came out food and from the powerful one came out sweetness. Okay, now go deal with that riddle. Thank you. What a beautiful she that's what a riddle a riddle is is just confusing. It's just like cute. You can go home and say okay what is the riddle containing? So he says the riddle is containing something deeper. So la pio the way it's understood is that the there was a beehive that landed in the stomach of the lion after the lion was killed right and they were eating the honey over there. So the eater became food because the bees were there. And from this powerful line came sweetness. He explains this whole to explain what are going to be that the eater becomes a for the whole the riddle of the whole in deep why Aaron has to bring a carbon iron is the one who's all the carbonas he's the one who eats carbonas and then he has to become a today I'm after the of today I'm holding it through that through that riddle. So all the mices what they're capturing is an inion of of and and it's something that's up to you. In other words, it's not going to be more Isis. You'll read the story and another and and I'll read the story, you'll see something that I can't see. And next year you'll read it and you'll see something that you never saw. And in 50 years you'll read it and you'll read something that you never saw. It becomes timelessly relevant. How? Why is it not boring? It's not boring because it's not it's not static wisdom. It's not information. figure out something, >> right? >> A father. >> Yeah. >> Of course. Yeah. His deepest secret is your deepest secret. Very good. Because we're one. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. The two birds need to come together, but they're one. We learned in the other says yeah it's two half forms and together becomes an so his secret is my secret and he wants to give that to me. He doesn't only want to give me the outer fac the outer layer which is nice the gillu he wants to give me that secret. How do you give me that secret? >> He wants to help you reveal it, >> right? You can't give it to me because what you're giving to me >> is not the secret. >> Yeah. >> Right. >> Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, you huh? What? Z. What are you typhus? How many songs are the same song is a mush? >> A song is a mush. That's true. >> Some people also >> it's a mush. A song is a mushel. A person could sing a song. It's a nice song. Yeah. It's it's again like a mush. It's an entertaining song and then you feel the song. Yeah. So what do you what do you bring out with the song? >> You're giving the mush not to explain something and then it's over. >> You're giving the mush because you're in resonance with the listener, >> right? >> Imagine you and you're making a movie and then oh by the actor by the way no one's going to watch this. >> By the way, it's going to be in the theaters but no one's going to show up. You're never going to do it. >> The whole point of giving a mush is because you're you're you're drawing in listener. wanted to tell things through stories and through Michelle through everything because it's it's the epitome of resonance with the receiver >> versus just you're telling the story 5 plus 5 is equals 10 and then that's it. It's just a fact. You're just telling the fact [snorts] >> so that's so here you have to define it. when I'm giving over a fact even a deep fact we're talking about a deep wisdom this communication but what are you communicating you're communicating one of your ideas your wisdom which is also a part of you to the person that's what if you want to communicate yourself to the person me in my essence say what do I do over there I just tell you oh I had an insight yesterday okay it's nice I had a feeling yesterday Okay. What if you want to give everything? What do you say? All in. All in. All in. [laughter] How do you How do I give you all in? H What do I do? I tear up my shirt. [laughter] That's one way. Yeah. Right. What What are you giving That's the nudot that I'm feeling. You can't you can't write down on a paper someone's emotions, >> but I I can tell you something that would make you feel the same emotion as me, >> right? >> About living by example. >> Yeah. >> I can tell you what to do with what I'm doing. >> Living by example. Pun intended. By example. Living by example in the mshel. I want to share with you my own deepest experience that you should be able to somehow get in some mysterious deep way that core. But how do I do that? finding yourself in the story. Finding yourself in the story. [snorts] >> So when you hear that story and that's what a real story is. People start what they love about the story is they all find themselves in that story. But who are they really finding? They're finding themselves and they're finding the author and it's really that connection that resonance. So [snorts] if the author essentially is a selfish person just a brilliant writer. So that's what you get when you're talking about the ultimate author of so you're getting the and that's the and that is I'm not giving it to you through big then I'm just giving you a piece of information but how do I give you not a piece of information I want to give you myself so I'm giving you something that's not me at all I'm just giving a story it's not even me at all I'm not even not only that you could strip it from me you could just say you know it's cute it's not even a it's not even the law. I'm not even telling you anything. But really now it's up to you. [laughter] You'll have to find this inside yourself. When you find this in yourself, what are you going to find? You're going to find everything. You're going to find the That's what you're going to find. >> Yeah. straight genius. Yeah. Yeah. Beautiful. >> Beautiful. >> And and one important point is this. If I'm giving you information, I'm giving and you're taking. Even if you're really taking, it's amazing. You're taking, you're working, you're working 40 years on it. I'm giving. I'm the giver. You're the taker. By definition, you're getting the part that I can give and you can take, which is beautiful. The waterfall is coming down and you're getting the water. So, you could take all the water, part of the water, 10% of the water. Maybe after 40 years, you'll get much more of the water. And there's more and more because the waterfall here is pretty endless. Latas in the marshall. Well, I'm actually I didn't give you anything. I just told a story. You could fall asleep. You could put it on by bedtime or on the plane and fall asleep even better, right? A guy once told me, he said, "I love listening to your lectures cuz till then I what guy told me? He comes over, you changed my life. I was like waiting, you know?" Wow. Amazing, right? I wonder how I changed his life, you know? I saved this, I saved that, I saved that, you know, and basically I couldn't sleep. I could not I could never fall asleep. Now I put you on and so thank you. I just want to thank you. It's amazing. I He's telling me about [laughter] >> greatest. Huh? Yeah. >> Huh? I forgot. I I was I was interested. I was interested how passionate he was and then I realized who knows sometimes maybe that's amazing. is not so. >> Yeah, he lived it. Yeah. Yeah. >> Right. >> Very [laughter] good. >> So essentially, I'm not giving anything. You'll do whatever. I'm not giving anything. It's a you could do whatever what you want. You say cute story. Okay. Interesting. Fine. I stayed up a few minutes or or what happens or you can do everything with it. It becomes your story. You live by it, right? You experience things in yourself through it. That's aller. So it's not through communication anymore because essentially there's no real communication here. It's just like a story that doesn't doesn't demand anything. Just a story about somebody else even on one level. But what's the real tacklas of it? The real t is that you find in yourself those truths, right? It becomes your story. That's the power. People find it in themselves. That's why they're enthralled. And what are they finding in themselves? They're finding in themselves >> the deepest self of the author. And in this case, they're finding that infinite truth inside themselves. And it's something that now is yours. So it's not bad, it's because that's what makes it yours. You're not a mabel anymore. You become the storyteller because the only one who could tell the story to yourself is you. I can tell the story to you. You could take that story and make with it what you want. And you could tell that story to yourself about yourself embodying that internal self that this author communicated. And in this case it's the >> that's the mish the mish of it. That's the Yeah. And that's the of don't have not that they don't have it but the of represent the gill the gill of and here it's the that's why he says there's more than but it's not it's not recognizable because it can't be recognizable here.
