robot I said so good morning the data
everyone were on page 396 in the Mimer
I love you hey other Zahir Bakula Smith
haha Minka you know the language of the
Olga I'm gay Adam is a very forceful
language it literally means the island
forever
you hate others are here man should be
careful the implication of the language
is very forceful in other words don't
forget this always remember this don't
lose sight of this that's the language
so it's a very very authoritative I'll
use that word it's a very authoritative
language the rabbit doesn't speak about
it but just been thinking about it
myself
the V it's not only you know if you want
to it's the way I look at it if you want
to divert mental if you don't want to
don't have a missile if you want to be
careful about missile you don't want to
don't be careful know Malayalam you have
other means you better be careful
why would and why and why why would the
huzzah why would the rabbis use such a
language I mean the tourists I discuss
it it's a terror of kindness why would
it use a forceful authoritative language
and I believe the answer is in what the
language is used for what are we
discussing for this custom info and the
and and word as we will see start seeing
today in the mine were what mints is
about you know on a spiritual level and
then later in a minor on the practical
level so because we're talking here
about something that is essential for a
Jews survival there
or therefore we we therefore we we
basically see this very powerful
authoritative language when oil um you
hey Adam Zahir because you don't find
that type of you language in hazael
often you don't you know for example the
governor Chavez says that my hobbies are
it's a witch mitzvah this is a statement
made by a sage regarding a certain which
Mitzvah
what is he most careful about and that
type of language is very mellow compared
to the language here the oil um yehey
Adams earlier hey guys you better always
be careful they both use the same words
ah here careful but it's the way you use
the word careful the before and after
that makes all the difference so
obviously this is a special a special
reason there must be a special reason
why the Fazal used this language and
again I don't I didn't see it into my
memory here and I'm not sure it's gonna
be in the minor but this is my own
thinking yes Berbatov I just have to say
I was pointing out to me some time ago
that Gomorrah and Shabbos you just
quoted about his father most careful so
the cities was taught to me by our
kupuna that in usual I am that because
it is that that is out here and that gun
that we read it which mitzvah did your
father not the careful which in
which miss did your father shine which
was too he did he much like you know
what like you know in other words like a
view Zack infirmary is a very strong
positive of course of course here from
the words are splendor shine
Britta bill bright brilliant
so yeah the and the rebel has citrus on
this which since we mentioned you take
another moment how important that is for
every person to have their Mitzvah their
Mitzvah in which they throughout their
lifetime you saw a special love towards
that meets and it's important to know
this why because after 120 you want to
do something for the soul of the person
if you know what their Mitzvah that they
emphasized was it would be very
worthwhile to continue that Mitzvah for
them versus doing any pizza which is
good
of course every mix was good for the
darshan of a person who's leftist world
but this Mitzvah that dessert here like
you said notion that he he and give us
we say they would cost which means
passionate about cooks cooks himself in
over and over easy like you know very
excited son here okay bottom of page 396
basically the first chapter was one long
question what do the huzzah mean when
they say be careful with lava demon feh
why not chakras why not Arvest that's
the question but of course through this
hostile of Casa de it was elaborated
bomb it opened up a whole door to us
about this issue of understanding the
Gemara PLP copy premia cetera resin the
resin very interesting discussion now we
go to the bottom the second paragraph he
may often cuz they avoid epinephrine
shot to understand all of the above in
man service and I've way disorder he
name is Montrealers a min home a gay do
me a favor put on your mute please his
mom she was I mean her he's mister state
days regarding the time of Mincy there
are two opinions in the gamora rabona
the rabbi's wherever you who de penis
I'm in for other errors Rob Allah say
you Qaddafi min so too
nightfall through therapy who diameter
view this says I plot the middle until
basically plot immensely which is an
hour and a quarter before before
nightfall through this feeling aw who
believes that realist connected to meet
him tick no type of 397 that the reason
we that prayers the governing correspond
are sorry are in lieu of sacrifices
which sacrifice the two middle the
carpet on meat which was brought twice
daily in the morning and in the
afternoon own in her home that the
atomic shall be null value and the
carpenter is is it corresponds with the
afternoon carbon plummet moniker of his
term it shall be not about imitation
source of matter until when could you
bring the carpet Amma was not in half
hours from the morning the names of
plaka means her sure of the Academy Lila
so according to this when is plot them
in an hour and a quarter before night
this is the opinion of you who de Bourgh
the sovereignty that abundant they they
they they say otherwise because they
hold they follow a BAC Bureau sound me
what is an emulation saying in Traktor
animus in the gomorian shall meet them
in Connecticut itís not Minka is in lieu
of sacrifices rather memphis in lieu of
the incense offerings known as
containers shanem odd as it says Tico in
philosophy I will prepare my prayers my
Tila Qataris with incense the time to
smoke incense is piece of time so if you
want to know when to get high it's a mix
of time totus okay
it's so interesting
just saw a letter someone sent in the
whatsapp from 1977 summon rights to the
red/black saw this I promise you he says
is it all right to smoke marijuana and
the rebel says I raced it already I
should have kept it surely not
1977 not 1965 1977 anyway and and I
think he was in put the question
questionnaire that was was kind of like
can I use it for enhancing my service of
a sham you know and their ever said
surely not this is not the approach
anyway
but according to my buddy touched a
little bit on the kotori's possibility
of it be having some kind of effect
so once the thrall can we say that that
there was smoking of the incense in
order to elevate well I don't I don't
see that they were smoking incense they
used the incense who says they were
smoking the incense
I mean look look into the Torah what
does it say about the Qataris does it
say that we were eating the incense
smoke condensers I don't believe it does
it says that you brought incense in a in
a vessel and you put a fire or you
brought it to the altar that's what it
says now whether the aroma of the
incense gave you a high could be could
be anyway
that's continued your welcome additional
value but how good is my - I want to
tell you since we mentioned it it's not
just the incense it's alcohol - Hasidim
for generations use the alcohol as an
enhancer to avoid the session they get
so their ever writes their ever writes
in egress cognition one of his volumes -
I think the certain consider remember
rights today we have the Torah of my
father-in-law his considers what we're
learning and the same higher you get
from the alcohol you can get from the
minor now he writes it now Hassidim
still use blue sayonara Brennan's you
know but but let's not lose sight of the
Lakota that the CUDA is that you know
it's for a holy purpose and a godly
purpose and really not not for your own
self you know advancement and and ego so
whether it's you know it's it's it's
it's it's a drug or whether it's alcohol
if it's used just to to pump yourself
it's inappropriate okay let's continue
so he says beautiful commercial world
burger is mindless and as it's explained
in the comments of Maimonides paid of
dollars milk estilo over there he says
you could look further and you'll see
more details about prayer being
substituted by by Qataris ran into the
treeless meandher what we understand
from this year around me is that min
Carr who netted up Taurus is involve
Taurus so the question now is what
what's the difference by efficient
paying carbone's with traitors are the
difference between sacrifices and
incense called burnished McCreary Armas
Berenson where was the place in the in
the basis of meekness where you brought
the sacrifices or animals called upon
the external altar miss barrace potatoes
conversely accepted incense was brought
on this balcony me
the smaller miss Bay are called the
inner miss bear you know I was called
the inner miss bath because it was in
the in the play that's right too
there was a sauce on the menorah and the
Miss possibly me whereas the Miss Bertha
feat zone was outside right okay that's
why it's called pizza miss bear huh free
time outside of the kodesh and this was
inside let's continue unknown bliss
layer there is however according to both
opinions both are abundant and rabiyah
hooda had his mana minho cratons feels a
comma everyone agrees that Minkus before
the sunset right cuz when we say till
nightfall right
even the rebels say till nightfall we
mean scarce a farmer of course we have a
disagreement that you know what's key is
the comma you know is that there are
better times here but whatever your
skills a comma is that's until when the
min hook goes is that moving the
trailers have been Carter yes who else
riotously hill officials from this we
understand that the middle of Fela the
Minho prayer is associated with the the
with the movement of the Sun the Clayton
skills of the Clayton's Kyoshi doctor
and its associated with with the
movement of the Sun as it as it is prior
to its sunset that's what that's we
understand what this tomorrow
what is this need preparing you know to
understand this further didn't exist
so now emotions going into explaining to
us what the Sun is right since Minster
time being associated with the sunset
according to everyone avi so what does
the Sun represent in guttin in our Incan
God than an hour ago they're not with
Hashem and he says it says it to heal
m84 enix it's said there's a mugging for
the Sun and it's shield
passion elokim is you cave roof gay
in the East the betrayer cleave we find
in the madness called Schaffer type the
only one 397 about 10 lines down but
here but other them I love hearing about
oven says Marrakesh
the Sun shines like the Sun o masive t
muggy I'm sorry mayor Casillas you have
to shine like the Sun masive and you
have to protect yourself
Tim McGee like a shield was that he made
by shemish yes late voted in the Sun you
have two things of' an old eczema
shemish you have the very ball the sun
ball the sun will have the same e equal
acceptance you have the circumference of
the Sun so who are mugging but have not
read not 8lf shallow shemesh the
circumference of the Sun is the
protective coat and shield over the son
Rahul Anika Osama and this is what we
call the Sun trauma
so now we go back to the verse into
helium t seminal mugging for the Sun and
at shield her mother came is God our God
God and the meat shakes a mugging VIN
Arctic Mesa for master amor eres Emma's
just as the shield and protective cover
of the Sun protects the Sun the essence
that Mar the luminary the very Sun right
because otherwise they would burn up the
world that's too intense so it needs a
shield a circumference
it could might gain so to gamba Sheikh
Michelle joining when it comes to the
holy names of Ash and the supernal names
to say my sham of the same league in the
names of table of kidding
Tim there's the similar operation but
the same Michelle how is that Cologne
that the same uh same UK both gay
who McCoy ha iris it's the source for
lights for energy shame little Kim the
name of Elohim who McCleary kala is the
source for the vessels they have said
the youth cave of K who giggly it's
revelation barely came and the name
mellow Kim who hello mr. sealant in
other words just as gay just as the son
must have a code and AAA they shield to
protect it so that protected meaning in
the sense it shouldn't burn us up so to
you cave of the only being given
revelation needs hello Tim to filter it
otherwise we would slip out and that's
why it needs to have a low came in
addition to your cave of tea so now we
understand the posture can tell him key
shemesh mulling just as the Sun has a
shield so to Sam Elohim Elohim is the
shield for you gave up get look ok some
begins base also it can be also call it
that it's the lava that it stays dressed
huh
yes yes but right now is that I know
what you're saying that he's not
speaking about it so therefore I didn't
mention it in other words what they be
saying is that there's also the aspect
of Elohim not only as a protection on
set and you cave of K but a beneficiary
that that we have Shem and clothe
herself Sanel Oh Kim and it's filtered
through for our benefit but maybe I'll
say it soon but he hasn't said that
that's what didn't mention it yes hello
earlier we talked about the shemesh and
it says eagle eagle hashem a yes the
word yes is so you said that was the
circumference I was wondering that all
had an implication about the rotation
yeah I I equal me evil me the circle I
mean right yeah
that's why I'll make Megan maybe maybe
you're right maybe it means I'm doesn't
rotate the Earth rotates around the Sun
Sun say still so think of the old days
that the Sun Moon well the the that's a
that's an interesting thing that the
Rebbe writes about right Jesus you know
that's really it depends on where you're
you're holding where your relativity is
right the revit the river what Abby said
is you know the Rebbe and others who
feel that way but not everyone agrees
but I it's interesting that you've
mentioned that the rotation I'm not sure
if it yeah I'm not sure if it implies
irritation I'll have to think about it
then okay okay let's go further
shame shame I share and therefore the
shame a shame the negative of K Huma
Clara iris that is why it's the source
of energy because mostly what does that
look SM give Li and yoni what's a mellow
Kim McCleary came the source of the of
the vessels the restriction you know it
limits it why because it's like the
predating the the cover on the Sun
liberating the Sun from being exposed
fully the hawk alien now listen to this
they have Kaelin Hema be limosaurus CY
came by didn't because of the here is
emphasizing the other aspect not the
aspect I believe that you were referring
to
right now he's emphasizing how calum are
mad peeling they limit the orals the
energy boom Ali mammalian and they
conceal the arrows now comes his
rhetorical question which I believe was
with cables alluding to gamba Kaylie
hey McGowan SOR wait a minute
don't the calum also reveal the light
the restriction itself says I can't give
you as much but I'm giving you so isn't
there an aspect of gilead revelation to
the Kalin themselves that's his
rhetorical question and he said and to
strengthen it he gives us an example
listen to this example - nice example
welcome Oasis a wholesome a golem is a
cycle the letters of logic you know we
form letters in our mind for every piece
of logic what do these letters do these
containers do then medallas are safe
they reveal the safe hole in other words
if we wouldn't have the osios house a
hole that a concentrate guys this is a
good class it is now here if you don't
have the osseous assay hold the letters
of the logic the logic would not make
sense because the the compartmentalized
logic as its expressed through letters
gives it form an idea so Isis our saiful
the letters of logic are megalis are
safer they don't restrict the seho
they actually make this a hole
understandable which we call yoni in the
language of considers and the muscle
over here McGowan there a revelation of
the idea you can have the brightest idea
you don't have the words for the idea
and you try to express it it sounds like
a lunatic I'm a sugar nur and you could
be a genius I mean your head is clear
but you're missing the osseous and by
the way there are some people and that
have this issue they're brilliant and
geniuses but they don't have the osseous
it's a talent and of attack it's a skill
to develop the ideas for sale so my god
Micaela maimie Garland
ouka my man and there's a saying used
osios lucky mice you know why you have
to look into a sinner when you're davon
club a bachelorette day he always looked
in the sitter when he made a brothel
owner looking at videos and trust me he
knew it by heart when you learn this
book why is the letters themselves
machina is they make you smarter in
other words the container the vessel one
second the container the vessel is not
only a hug power a limitation but it's a
revelation
yes you know what where is that quote
from those hills you know I I think it's
either in it's a safer of cabal either
say for you Syria or one of those swaram
I'm not sure I don't know I don't I
don't think that's a cos al but I'll
have to look it up but there you know
it's it's not I don't think it's of a
Gomorrah I think it's they want to cover
that but I have to find out that he
doesn't give a source but there is such
a such a saying I grew up yeah oh she is
Maximus I'm vicious sentence for me the
letters of logic or muscala what's on
the guy love the logic Rogalla double
the words the letters reveal the logic
without the words which are limiting
right if I say come here those words IV
means come here and I'll go there so the
words are limiting you your
understanding of what I'm saying come
here is come here not go there so I want
in the words limit what I'm saying at
the very same time they reveal what I
want
come here let's continue welcome I see
little bit more than racine actuality
they clear cerise year's reunion by
reading the letters the words I ve you
know and focusing on the
words howdy-ho Amidala Musco you
comprehend it properly very important
fellows have a very important line and
this is something that Western thinking
and my humble opinion doesn't do because
it's a different mindset the Torah
approach to learning is to look at the
words focus and concentrate on the words
and I don't I don't mean you know
abracadabra you know you know Lord I
don't mean that I mean that it says ze
unum when you learn something look at
the word and think about what the word
means and what it implies even study the
words say the words and study the words
the words themselves will add clarity
and expansion to your brain you hear
that
that's why we say Hillel Perseus
maximize the AI seus make you smarter so
put your energy into the AI seus that's
why another reason when we call to the
Torah right now when you're given a
leader someone they should say along and
look into the Torah what's being read I
see is must immerse so you call someone
up he's never been close to the Torah
doesn't you know give him a lead as a
notice the fathers of these mothers then
and you say did my bad give him a brush
up if someone says why call him up he
tells you afterwards gob I what kind of
God are you if give it to like STLCC a
three man she seen a sleazy man what are
you giving it to some Tom Dick and Harry
you know he got it all wrong my friend
it's not about big shot at the Torah how
much he learned there how much you know
it's about Asia smack him once and by
him being quote from alia he gets an
alia and he looks into the words whether
he knows what the words means terrorist
of itself or doesn't know the osseous
impact him and that's his beginning to
grow further
I see as monkey
let's continue any question yes ready
what is that the reason why that you
know she does it schools that doesn't
necessarily understand what they're
saying in the tequila they tell them to
learn no per se the Hebrew or the
Russian Kurdish okay not think it's part
of it good question it's part of it yoni
it's a part of it there's another reason
and if you think about it I think it
makes sense but it's you don't want to
train a child or a person to to go to
other sources to find their connection
to a share once they have the connection
it can you can taste other sources
because if you're strong that who you
are you're not going to be fathomed by
you know other sources now now I
understand we're talking here about
let's say reading in Hebrew versus
reading and Yiddish Spanish French or
English but there's something to the
ISIS that curves out shows we believe
that the puzzle especially in Fela
it's the on sickness of Sapodilla the
men of the great assembly who chose
those words and those words only and
that's why just for the record yesterday
we spoke about
I think Gabe asked about what what part
of Fela is that the kind to if you want
to say a prayer and I said smile : no
but I have to tell you since we're
speaking about it now a day later that
in some traditions like in Subodh we
don't really don't do that we don't add
to the teyla you're allowed to but we
you know I was taught that you know if
you could avoid doing that don't do it
because the words that the Casal chose
for this manere
are powerful enough and it's their word
holy and Sadiq him and if you
concentrate on those words and put your
thought into their words it will ascend
up and it's going to send up to the
right place that's coming from Kazan
whereas your words are your words so you
might mean well but maybe even gold
maybe and I prepare today who knows you
know
so going back to your question you'll
need ICS must eat mice has two reasons
you know so the training in the achieve
as you say is that the letters
themselves used as an expression the vet
that I'll a vet amis words Elaine means
alone that the vet that Elaine the words
alone Zen in zis are sweet in other
words you should you should come to a
place where you want to kiss the letters
because they're so special the soul holy
they're so beautiful now you'll need but
they've told you several times and it's
still worth mentioning because one
should learn the meaning of that I think
that this takes a little time but you
could learn the meaning so because we
dive in every day so that when you have
your sitter and you look at the acidity
and you train yourself to look into the
sitter and say the words I'm telling you
the time the time when I do that my
darling is enhanced what I don't do that
that I rattle or frustrate by heart it's
a different Avenue so we train the the
children and in you mentioned the
achievers we train them in such a way to
focus on the words of course this one
doesn't get no Hebrew they should do it
in English and there's certain parts of
governing where it's better to do it in
the ink language that you understand but
that's another discussion discuss it
with your local rabbi let's continue so
he says so so the zel clothes that help
us bring deeper Alex Eva he says this is
a general difference
between speaking and writing did the
deeper when you speak he may omit Kabul
debris arrived if he listened to your
teacher
via Daily Sun and you know the words
that he uses also your illuminate some
then you can master them learn them what
about them shuffles differ enough as
soon as we get off this cheer and you
forget the words that are used of how to
angle your tears in your clothes you
know the idea at all because a teacher
who teaches properly uses specific words
to express the ideas that he teaches so
in other words when you hear the words
from a teacher any teacher who's
teaching it properly what if you
remember those words you know what he
really wants and if not you don't
compared conversely our ability sucks of
words that are written the written word
how do Asia's acts mom must even believe
say I wanna say all the words himself
remind you about the idea
Kurama hem the words are a reminder to
the idea that the words are supposed to
communicate so we're gonna stop here so
here he gives an example the difference
between paisius hawk siva letters words
written and IC as'hab de Bourgh words
that are said words that are said I'm
saying now things so what you remember
what I said will remind you about the
ideas that I that I taught this morning
those things you don't won't remember
you will remember those ideas what if I
gave you a transcript now that
everything I said what do you do you
pick up the scratch script you read what
I said you said ah this is what he
elaborated on these words and I
understand it so what do we see
why is it giving us this muscle yoni why
is it giving us this example because
this example shows that in words
themself there's a difference between
the spoken word and the written word you
know I tell people who you know have
information to share about the different
historical things that I'm researching I
asked them if they it's preferable for
them to write it to me not that you know
maybe the fact is that I don't have time
to listen to everyone because that
wouldn't have any time left to right and
to research but also the written word is
your word so if I end up quoting you you
said it and hiya
and and and I cited it so if there's an
issue with it go back to you don't go
back to me I mean at the end of the day
I you know I have to take responsibility
if it's my work my book you know I my
name is on it you know whether I cite
you I don't psych you I take respond
I'll be blamed you know I'll be
responsible but but but outside of that
which is the truth outside of that it's
your word and your word you you can and
should write the way you want it to be
said in other words like this so this is
something it's hard sometimes to do if
you don't want something to if you don't
want someone or something to be
understood about you in a certain way
don't write it that way because if you
write it that way in the depth and it
gets out that's the way it's gonna be
I'll tell your story without names cuz
it's not proper I asked a certain
prominent rabbi several years ago to
endorse one of my books and he was very
interested in that book that I wrote the
book was Robin Rebbe I'm Robin salivate
chick and their ever and he hear this he
[Music]
and he likes kebab and he's a known
rabbi and I think one of you here on the
listener knows him personally anyway
and nothing they said to me before I
endorse it I want to see what I'm
endorsing I said truce I sent them a
copy of the manuscript and he looked at
various parts and he said yeah I like
what you wrote it was up there was a
controversial issue that he was
referring to actually it was the book
the real slo-moes butterfly McCullough
but I think the back wasn't about Robert
Rebbe was about a flamer because of all
the you know bad press about Elena so he
[Music]
wanted to find he told me I'd like to
have one book finally that really opens
up the issue isn't embarrassed but does
it in a respectful way and brings it to
the table
and he read my book my manuscript and he
said I really like what your old on one
hand you brought the issue to the table
on the other hand you were very
respectful and you explained all sides
and all the issues this cut this
dialogue that I'm telling you about was
done in email all of a sudden I get an
email from someone I forget now who I'll
remind myself at some point and he says
aha you're what's the word in English
you're buying off what's the better word
you're you're you're basically you're
basically excuse me what Brandon yep
bribing or you know your your excuse the
expression you're in bed with the rabbi
in the rabbi's in bed with you and he's
a he's about to give you an approbation
a hasta ma because you and him are tight
you know he likes lebar your ass
about Nick and he says I'm going to blow
the whistle on him
you know me you know you know what I'm
not I was I'm not a real you know organ
organization man belonging you know and
but he was or is and he blew the whistle
on him
and I now I know who was it was a big
troublemaker to the Orthodox community
to the front community but of Hashem I
think someone actually paid him off to
stop his blog so what Solomon Schechter
no I I don't want to say he name so
don't not appropriate it was it wasn't
some no so I'm gonna do that it wasn't
him so so he he he went and put on his
blog a copy of the emails what happened
by mistake
I gave one fetch one press of the button
to the wrong button and it ended up
going to him somehow and he took it and
he publicized it and there was nothing
wrong in our correspondence but if he
wanted a pick a fight and you wanted to
say that this community rabbi is giving
a probations because he's at the word
you know he's born off he's he's he has
a favorite and he called me up the rabbi
and he says as much as I would love to
endorse your book I can't and he
basically was o
blackmailed blackmailed he was
blackmailed into into a corner and he
had to and his administration got wind
of it and they said you have to make a
statement that you retract so what what
did that show me
what you write
what you write you have to think of it
this way
will my writing be a - for my enemy
unfortunate this is the world we're in
and if you cannot say that don't write
it or write in a way we're of enemy of
yours or someone who's an enemy of
Orthodoxy would you know any someone who
wants to make a mess and has an axe to
grind
won't be able to use it and I've
discussed this with lawyers big lawyers
in Washington friends people I learned
with you know he says it's the same way
today in the business world don't write
anything that you'll regret later
because that could be used against you
so when we're learning here about the
ICEA suceava here is talking about the
virtue of IC suceava that i see sexy
they remind you of what the idea is so
he's speaking about the positive quality
so i just reminded me and i'm sharing
with you that it can work the other way
to the point being that what's ricky is
a reminder of of who you are even though
maybe you're not that maybe that's not
you but you said in a certain way then
that's what it is so we have to be very
very careful and I talk to myself
the rebel always quoted the same
aesthetic same aesthetic said something
that is in writing Navi is for
generations it's for generations every
time I write I think about this I don't
write just for now my writing with and
that's on us in my writing it's for a
hundred years from now after my hundred
and eighty years of my life someone's
gonna pick up that book that is gonna
say so dolphin what did you say and it's
gonna read it and I have to write it
that way today
based on what I want that person hundred
years from now to understand and that's
enough I said
great responsibility and in a way it's
that it's the same for every email and
every piece of writing although you know
we don't put as much thought into it
okay seven up I hope that the last
lesson the last message is clear and
important because we always like to walk
away with something very practical and
to me this would 2v2 me this this one I
just might you know this lifetime
experience taught me a big big lesson
big lesson have a great thing
