world welcome welcome and thank you
my love and blessings and prayers to all
of you individually and collectively
there's a famous song that many jewish
communities sing online
and really not only it's a very heart
sicker it's a very
uh it's it's a moving song that
it's a beautiful song the words are
incredible the composer of this song
was a man named shimon ben lovey
rip shimon bin lavi was known as one of
the great
capitalists from earlier generations
he lived in libya in libya
he was from tripoli and he was one of
the greatest mystics
and mikubolim and sadikum of his
generation
he lived around the year hey i love him
shin tess
which would be 1509 that's the same
the same era like that reso a few years
earlier
and uh you see the signature of his name
in the beginning of every stanza of this
melody and he wrote a commentary on
zohar called
kesem the jewel crown
on zoya rip shimon bin lovey from
tripoli and he wrote this song in honor
of rep shimmer by
the baalhaeilullah who's whose day
we celebrate tonight lagbo ima the day
of
and the song has ten stanzas y ten
they correspond the ten spheres
of kasir khakis
[Music]
from the lower to the higher and at the
end
of the of the of the song signature of
the name of hashem
and it's basically a uh
a very profound it's not a simple song
it's a profound meditation
in honor of please join me
on the chat somebody put up the lyrics
of the whole song
and i'm going to focus on a few words
from the song i told you this song was
composed
by one of the great mystics of
the late 1400s the early 1500s of shimon
ben lovey
from tripoli in libya
today we don't realize that libya had a
very glorious
jewish community with great
personalities libya over the last years
has taken a different turn libya has
become known because of
qadhafi but uh
here we're talking about a different
tripoli a different libya
and uh this became a a jewel
in jewish poetry and it's called barrier
but i want to focus on a few words of
this great poem
of this great song as i told you it has
ten stanzas
corresponding to the ten swedish you see
how it starts off
[Music]
by
what does this mean the son of your you
have been anointed
fortunate are you shemen saseha
so to speak the oil
with joy from your friends and then he
continues
the third stanza i want you to look at
i put my uh i put my cursor on it my
mouse on it
now listen to these words because their
relevance is astounding
the son of your you have
i'm just translating it from the words i
don't know if this is the exact accurate
translation but more or less
you have found a good place to settle to
sit down to settle
the day that you fled the day that you
escaped
into the cave surrounded by rocks
where you remained over there in that
cave you acquired your splendor
and your glory
over there you acquired your splendor
and your glory
of course two stanzas later
there is the famous words
think about those words when the reborn
is
let us make man who was he talking about
he was talking about you nasa adam let's
make an
adam who was that said we said
it was said for the shimmer in other
words
when hashem conceived of man
what does this other look like who did
he think of
you know when you're thinking of
creating a company
or an organization or a movement
or a kehillah community or a website or
a corporation
or a yeshiva whatever it is that you
want to create a system
an idea a book you always have in mind
what is what is the ideal the ideal
product
what is it that you want it should look
like if it happens or it doesn't happen
as a separate question
but when hashem said nasa adam what was
he thinking
what is this person going to look like
wow if ship is such a compliment for a
person to get
you don't see this as such this is not a
usual statement
that when hashem said nasa adam it was
said about you
every line here is another jewel another
gem
about so
i'm going to address some of these
themes
and bring it back together to the theme
of the evening which is
israel and unity etc
everybody
but he wasn't in quarantine for a few
months
he was in quarantine for 12 years
the gomorrah says
he fled from the roman wrath
they wanted to kill him and he and his
son the balazar benjamin
ran into a cave into a mire that's what
he's referring to
and they remained in that cave for 12
years 12 years in a cave
talk about quarantine
[Music]
was quarantined with his son for 12
years
and remember there was no minion
[Music]
dominion
well this is before going to iran
because it's observed by your height
but he couldn't go anywhere like boeing
man it was not mikvah actually today
is pandemic huh well
the students of abri akiva that's
another story there was a pandemic
the mourinho vomit of samakhbay says
there was a pandemic
and it claimed the lives of 24 000
students
the gomorrah says the pandemic's name
was askara you know what oscar is
oscar in english i think is called
diphtheria
diphtheria any doctor here
no haven't
it was a pandemic it's i think it's a
bacteria
it's a bacteria it comes in and it hits
the heart or it hits the brain
and it's very dangerous it often creates
an inflation she says it's immaculate
in the throat because the neck gland the
glands in the neck become
inflated it's a very serious bacteria
today
they have a vaccine they treat it with a
vaccine
and he trained and he rebuilt
was one of the five students with which
rebuilt the holy dish
that's a separate fashion and we know
that the pandemic happened
between pesach and schwarz and one of
the opinions while
is because the pandemic stopped
possibly at least one of the opinions
posca milamus
they flattened the curve they curbed
the oscar of the diphtheria and that was
a tremendous
sigh of relief but i'm now focusing on
ripping by nikoi in the cave
there was no minion there was no mik
forget minion and
there was no lulav there was no mata for
pesach
there was no wine for kiddish there was
no
filling this was a serious quarantine
it's not just he couldn't say kaddish
and go to shul to davon with a minion
he couldn't do many of the mitzvahs that
you pasha needs physical things you want
to sit in a sukkah couldn't sit in a
sukkah
he couldn't blow shaiphone or shashana
there's a whole mimer from the
al-tarabha
the balatani and the kuta toyota parish
mini
some of you learned the miner with me it
starts off with the words live yassen
zayatsar to the sacred
12 years and then another year 13 years
in the cave
the gomorrah says that there was a
miracle he had water he had access to
water a spring of water and he had a
carrot tree
boxer tree a carrot tree to eat carobs
carobs people don't like
but in terms of nutrients carobs are
very good for you
they're rich in protein and they have
good nutrient they have it has a quality
that is very nutritious
to the human organism so he had a carrot
tree so he was
on a very good health diet but wiffles
are sure eating carrots for 13 years you
haven't tried eating it to be schwab
this was like the punishment in school
if they'd wanted to punish you they gave
you boxer to eat
but the truth is from a health
perspective that's only because i like
cotton candy
but from a health perspective it's not
so pretty good i think if i'm not
mistaken
now look back at the words come back
here to the chat with me
and take a look at the words you see
over there when you were quarantined for
13 years in a cave
that's when you were kinder you're
hiding your hudder
that's where you acquired your beauty
your splendor
your glory
ferrous your splendor
your whole beauty came weird from the
mire you would think
that's not weird that's not where
you're kind of your glory the kind of
glory in the basmadrish
the yeshiva with the community
of course we cherish community very very
deeply
but when a person is quarantined in a
cave for 13 years
you would think would look at it as just
a horrible horrible
tragedy and a punishment but this song
tells us
it was those years when he was alone
with his son
that he actually became the person
who he was capable of becoming it was
during that time that
he was forced so to speak to go back to
his core
and to discover his pinemius and his
atmos
his innermost essence and his shirish
his roots
because the root of a tree is never
visible the root of a tree is subter
mediterranean
you have to dig deep deep deep down it's
behelim it's concealment
concealed how do you get in touch with
your own root how do you get in touch
with your own sharoshim
you have to go into a cave and you have
to go away
from the whole hustle and bustle of life
you have to retreat from the social
component of life what they call today
social distancing not that i'm comparing
our quarantine to the cave
we're in our houses we have we sit on
couches some of us could go outdoors as
well
there's no roman government who's trying
to kill you but it's a lesson in every
generation
that when you're quarantined one of two
things can happen
either you see it just as a crazy time
and you wait for it to finish so you can
go back to work and the kids can go back
to school
but that's not the real approach that's
a very superficial approach
the real approach is sham
gives every single person an opportunity
now
to press restart on your life
and to press restart on my life and to
discover a new glory
and a new beauty and a new depth
and a new essence a new sense of essence
so that when you emerge from the cave
from the quarantine
you emerge much wiser much deeper much
more honest much more authentic
much more wholesome and much more
blessed
this is an opportunity to go back to the
core
to be able to really re-examine your
priorities
re-examine your life schedule to press
ctrl
alt delete to get rid of the viruses in
your computer and the viruses in your
brain
and the viruses in your heart i'm not
only talking about physical ones about
spiritual and emotional and
psychological it's an opportunity to
really go back to the beginning of your
marriage
and rediscover your relationship it's an
opportunity to go back to your owner's
you know a lot of people are lamenting
the fact that they didn't go to shul
they came down with a minion how could
you dive
without a minion and yes it's difficult
and it's sad but we have to remember the
story of the tsam
son you know the story i heard the story
myself from the rebel
that samadhika had a son his name was
his father-in-law was named after him
because his mother
from his mother's side from his maternal
side he was a grandson of rebellion
and the vietnamese when he got married
so the schwere his father-in-law made a
deal that he has to dive and fill a bit
simpler he has to doubt him with a
minion
and he agree he agreed the problem is he
was a tremendous
miraculous villa he used to darwin for
hours long
he poured out his soul to hashem which
was dominic by many hasidim great
hasidim like the mishnah says in brachas
that the khasidim arushanum used to
meditate an hour before governing and
then
esther was and now an hour afterwards
now most mignon don't operate like that
so the first day of chevy brothers or
after chaver brachas
he was davening and the minion went
ahead
and his father-in-law was waiting for
him i guess to come home after the
minion he wasn't coming home and he met
him afterwards
and he said we made a deal you're going
to die in philippi
and he says
he says what do you mean philip means 10
people you weren't there with the 10
people
he says by us we touched philip
not just with 10 people philip means you
have to gather
the 10 people inside of you the 10
voices inside of you
the ten coaches of the nephesh the ten
faculties of the soul
nets you have to bring them all into
davening
they all have to be part of davening you
have to find
the organic unity inside of you you have
to be able to
incorporate every part of you including
the demons and the skeletons and the
ghosts and the traumas and the
insecurities and your issues
you have to bring them all into davening
that's dominion
now we have a different type of
filipincy board
you can actually learn how to dive in
intimately
face to face with your survival in the
words of navi
hashem it's all on your own it's you and
hashem you go out to your porch
in new haven you could probably go out
to your porch it's not a problem of
social distancing
or you can go into a room and you could
talk to hashem
you could learn how to dive in you could
discover the art
and the experience of prayer it's
exceptional opportunity
don't forfeit it don't forfeit it
you could learn in a whole new way you
can even learn in times and swarm that
you couldn't learn before
you combined with your children in a new
way family time
marital time and time for yourself and
your relationship with yourself
it's in these moments of quarantine that
you have a historic opportunity
to be able to start
[Music]
i want to be able to go subterranean i
want to go back to my cave to my myra
of course i had a hard time
you think it was easy to be in the cave
over there for 13 years it was horrible
it was difficult it was tragic
nobody wishes this on themselves you
don't go into quarantine because you
choose it
understood that if divine providence put
them into quarantine
ah this is not a tragic
decree that he should just mourn and
grieve
this is a historic opportunity
for renewal for transformation
from metamorphosis for rebirth
sham khan i say to you my dear brothers
and sisters
seize the day what do they say
how do they say it in hebrew carpe diem
seize the day or now i should say seize
the night
sees the night to be able to suck the
marrow out of this experience
to emerge far
more wise and far more loving
and far more authentic my dearest
friends
and now i want to go back i want to take
this a step deeper
we'll take it a step deeper and go back
to the story in the gemara
this is the story of we always tell him
gimmel i think i brought out a to
shabbos i could look it up
gimmel amit bayes what do you say that
it's daflamid gimmel
the suggestion in the cave is shabb
islamic gimmel
it was lag boy the day lamid gimble is
the day connected to like bohemia i
don't know if we're going to have time
tonight but one day we're going to learn
there's a letter in the cote levi
that the rebbe's father wrote to him
about the significance of 33
is day 33 incredible insights
into the unique number of 33. so this is
shabbos
i'm going to bring out one point here
remember
went into the cave because he spoke ill
of the roman
empire and roman selfishness and roman
cruelty
and roman greed and they heard about it
they wanted to kill him and he went to
this cave
and he had the water and he had the
carrot tree
and he was sitting till his neck he was
sitting in sand
imagine sitting in sand
yasuwi
yeah all day he would learn with his son
yeah and the time of davening
such an incredible story all day they
would sit in sand
meaning without clothes their bodies
were without clothes and sand so the
bodies shouldn't decompose
and they covered the parts that have to
be covered in the sand
so they could do what they had they
could learn during davening
they would put on their clothes and
cover themselves in darwin
and then they would remove the clothes
again so the clothes shouldn't decompose
remember
they are here for 12 years this is not
for two weeks this is for 12 years
after 12 years they go out they go out
of the cave
but they can't deal with the real world
and they're sent back into the cave
they're there for another year or 13th
year after the 13th year they come out
of the cave
i'm skipping a few details because i
want to get to one point
is
some say he was the son-in-law but it's
it's known from zaya that
was the father-in-law so the
father-in-law goes out
to greet his son-in-law after 13 years
where is the first place they go ali
leben
they go into a a bathing house
after so many years he wants to clean
his body
looks at the flesh
it's full of it's full of uh
cuts it's split open everywhere
because 13 years in the sand
rashly says this there's this
split there's cuts everywhere because of
the sand
so is trying to smooth
and anoint his body he should feel
better you know
some type of physical therapy should be
able the body should be able to feel
better after all the suffering
the prince is crying
and the tears the tears
come down and actually and the gamoras
has come at southerla
shimon is screaming rashi says why is he
screaming
because the tears caused terrible pain
to the wounds of the body as the water
the tears hit the body the saltiness
it's very very painful so he's screaming
and the penises says
woe on to me that i see you like this
so the shipment says
you're lucky that you see me this way
because if you would have not seen me
this way
you would not find me the way i am today
in the beginning asked the question the
penises can answer 12 answers
now repentance has asked a question can
answer 24 answers
don't say woe unto you that you see me
you're fortunate that you see me this
way why el malila is
you wouldn't see this if you wouldn't
see me this way
you wouldn't have found me this way this
is the basis of the song
you would have never seen me this way if
not
if not for the cave we have here
i have a colleague a senior colleague in
muncie rabbi schlesinger
of another jew lives not far from me
here in muncie his name is
ram david we're from david weiss
the vishnu sukhasit and he's suffering
from als
and he learns all day and he made a sea
of ashas he finished the whole sas
with als last year and we came to a big
celebration his wife
rushes at zadecas arranged a beautiful
celebration in passaic
i had this house of being there very
schlesinger told over this story and he
asked a question
was 13 years in the cave he never
screamed once and now suddenly
some tears of his father-in-law fall on
him and he starts screaming
and he gave a possible interpretation
what bothered
him what he was screaming about was
that he looked at the princess and he
saw the peninsula
is weeping and feeling bad that she
is such a nebuchad he's such a victim he
says oily
whoa that i see you like this and that's
what bothered
me you look at my life as though i'm
like this
this suffering person who was destroyed
by life like
i don't look at my life as a curse i
don't look at my life as a punishment
i don't look at my life as a horrible
catastrophe that nebuchadnezzar i have
to tolerate
i celebrate my life and here we come
to the nakuda
is the one who revealed to the world who
started to reveal to the world
the core of in the summer of tyra which
of course was revealed in the zohar
and then in all of the works of kabbalah
especially through the arizona and his
students
and then of course subsequently through
the balshemptiv subsequently
in the language and terminology of
siddhis developed even further by his
students
and of course
who developed the whole language and
terminology and concepts of siddhis
and it continues from generation to
generation this
began with who's called
the master of pinemia and what does it
mean the master plan is
he doesn't look at hits he doesn't look
at externalities
he looks at the inner core the
pneumonias and by the way i see we have
either a shiva
from new haven we have her so be able to
be mars but he probably gave a few
room on this what's ripped
shimon says dover-shayna miscavige
but i didn't have kavanaugh for example
i slap over
i schlep over i'm walking on the grass
to shoot
or to your house or to my house and it's
possible
that the grass could be uprooted or i'm
schlepping a bench
from one house to another house if it's
a place where you're allowed to carry it
even though it's possible that when i
slap the bench
it may make a furrow in the ground so
you have them allah of karisha of
plowing
but since i don't have kavanah even if i
do them allah it's mother
you're allowed to do it everybody says
no no what's the machoices
the ikea is the mice you did a malacca
if shimon says no the main thing is the
pneumonias
double chinese scavenge there was no
cavanaugh there's no molecules there was
no
there was no premiums you did it
technically but you didn't want to do it
and it's not even inevitable it's not
secretion so therefore it's fine
and i want to share with you all the
kevaric
how did you end
and they were talking about rome and if
you just started to praise the romans
and he said look how great they are
they built markets they created bridges
they built bathing houses ah gevaldik
the bjc was quiet what did the shipments
say the
they did it only for themselves they are
greedy
they are barbaric they are selfish
they built the marketplaces to have
zionists
they built the bathing houses so they
should be able to glorify themselves
and have a good time and they built the
bridges just to be able to collect more
taxes
the romans heard about this
was promoted rabioisi was exiled
they issued a death sentence now let's
do abyssal let's understand this
what's this first if the romans are good
or bad
the same as lakers like shabbos dover
shayna miscavin
the beholder says i don't care about
their kavanagh
but pyo mamash they didn't give out they
could work look at rome
a messiah paved roads beautiful bridges
nice marketplaces malls
stadiums beautiful stores
cafes it's a normal place
you could live it's great beautiful you
can go to a heisei mikveh
it's a good sweets beautiful gyms you
can work out you can build your muscles
beautiful
yep shaman says what's negay is the
cavanagh
the is what was the cavanaugh of the
romans the kavanagh of the romans was
selfish they're promiscuous
they wants news they want you money
they just they are narcissistic people
don't look at what they did
look at the intent
[Music]
he looks at the inside says
i can exempt the whole world from
judgment
why the whole world from judgement
so i saw from the tsar shalom of bells
he said why
because he says every aveda
is a dover
every jew does an evader if you look
deep down he doesn't really want to do
it
he's doing it but there's no real cavuna
there's no melanchosis
he's doing it because he's disturbed
because he's in pain because he's
because he forgot who he is like it says
in tanya he forgets who he is saying
he's crying
i don't look at my life as a bad life
if hashem chose that i should go into
the mighty
it's not abidived
and that's the perspective of that every
moment in life
and every experience in life it's not a
big deal
even if you've been through different
challenges and different situations it's
not like okay
now how do you get out of it no you have
to be able to look at the penemius of it
to be able to see the core
look at the enemies of yourself and
you'll see that you're always an
ambassador of the rabbinislam in this
world
you're a stickler and therefore you have
infinite resources
you're never a victim of reality you're
an ambassador of hashem
adamant adam is a metaphor for hashem
the marshall of gashmi is a muscle for
the
the goof is a metaphor for the soul adam
is a metaphor for god
the person who revealed the pneumonias
of title and therefore the pneumonias of
the world
and therefore the primitives of an
ashama and therefore the premiers of
every event and every experience
by him there's no such a thing i ended
up in quarantine
i ended up in this problem i ended up
with this problem
no you were sent you didn't end up here
you're not lost this is not a mistake
you were sent
into every situation that you're dealing
with
and it's through this that you're going
to find your height and your huddle
you're going to find your glory and your
beauty and your premieres and your depth
and it's through this that you're going
to discover your deepest light
and now i want to share with you tiger
eden all on this caval that is uh
you're with me the chevra with me you
told us everything
huh rabbi roth you with me
the children understand children
understand
they understand better than the adults i
love either adult the roth family
understands
i love either adults will understand
they will understand as well as the
children
let's go to the next step you probably
know that after gimmel thomas
they found in the debbie's drawer in his
room three
big loose leafs of letters
diaries journals that ever wrote over
the years the 1920s
the 1930s when he was in russia and in
europe in europe
and then the first years in america the
1940s
and they published it over the next five
years
the first reshimmer they published with
shimmer's fivers aleph
is dedicated to yutez kislyam yuta's
kislev is the day that alternate came
out of prison
and that ebb explains there the
significance of utes
and kisliv and it was on a tuesday and
the name schneider and the name
zalman and he even discusses the
significance of the fact that he was
imprisoned in petersburg
and he speaks there about peter the
great peter the great
peter his name was peter peter the great
he built petersburg
all the details about the alternative
being in prison
but then the debbie adds an incredible
incredible insight
that's connected to like bohemia and i
want to share it with you
and it's really the mahalik it's the
cave it's the point
that we've been trying to convey
till here i'm going to read the words
and then i'm going to explain
these are the words from the rapper from
with shimmer that he wrote
when did he write it he wrote it in the
very early years this is probably the
1920s
so he says i quote never wrote this to
himself it was shorthand very brief
but i'm going to try to explain i opened
it up here
yo
in a very very brief way in very brief
words that ebb here
is revealing an incredible insight into
life he says if you look through jewish
history you'll see that
certain people were quarantined in
prison
either they were imprisoned or they were
confined in a place that was similar to
prison
and you'll see that all these people
were people
who changed the world
and it seems like that they had to go
through this quarantine
in order to change the paradigm of the
world they weren't just great people
they weren't just incredible people they
were people who
transformed the fabric of civilization
they brought in a whole new light into
the world
that was unprecedented but this can't
just come gradually
i can't just sit on my couch and sip
lemonade
and eat potato chips and change the
world for this they themselves
had to go through a transformation they
had to go back into pregnancy
in kabbalah there's a concept called
ibrishan and ibrushini
toyota her passion
is the first pregnancy from an embryo
from the egg and the seed you become a
fetus ibrushini is later in life you go
through a second pregnancy
you go back into the womb now it's not
easy to go back into the womb
the womb is a nice place but once you're
out you don't go back to the womb
can you do with the meister without
tadaba he told his mother-in-law she
offered him to come
to vitepsk and she'll live with her and
she'll support him because she was very
rich
after his her husband died because her
husband despised altered
now tonight but told him told her this
is a brilliant answer to ashwiger
although said tina
there's no days that are as beautiful as
in the womb of your mother he says but
once you leave you don't go back
you don't go back into the room of your
mother you leave not because it's bad
it's gevaldic
but sometimes you're sent back into ibur
you have to go back to your shitish
quarantined confined and you and you
rediscover yourself
and it brings a geval dick
mario says
that a child an infant who's born on
if he has long hair you want to give him
a haircut i am
going to give him a haircut you know i
want to give her because the answer is
somebody who came out of prison
and he couldn't take a haircut out of
yomtif you're not going to give him a
haircut
that's what mishna might cut a little
magazine
he's confined in the womb of the mother
you couldn't give him a haircut out of
yamptev he's born
he give america what does this bring out
ibur
is going back you're quarantined you're
limited
but you go back to the sheridish and you
start over again
who was in prison so this is the list
that ebba makes
joseph was in prison for 12 years none
of the brothers were
none of the brothers why he's considered
the mukhership of nayaka
he's considered the greatest of the
benayaka
that the whole trader of yaakov that he
learned he gave over
he gave over to joseph he was the
choicest of the children of yaakov who
can go down to mitslam
this is joseph he was in prison for 12
years who else
the gomorrah says
was in quarantine for 10 years three
years in kusa and seven years in cardo
rama rashi baba bastard ten years of
ramavina was in quarantine you know that
rough boys you know that abramovina was
in prison for ten years
he didn't get there
rabbi black he knew that abramovina was
in prison for ten years
you know rama was quarantined for ten
years
you think you have it hard between
pesach to be quarantined
10 years in quarantine 10 years in
quarantine
next year rebecca the gemara says in
brachas
she was in prison
next rashbi
13 years in prison of course he's
writing this about the balatania
but was in prison your tuskislavi came
out
i would also add he doesn't say this is
a famous madrid
that it's disputed in some places that
this russia island that yeshua put moshe
in prison
for many many years moshe was in prison
for many years what's the common
denominator of all these people
they brought in a new light into the
world avraham avinu
is the one who brought in the first jew
the gemara says that began
from
and it's connected to lag by me because
he started with the five students
the heyman middleton is responsible for
taylor what about
rashbi rash b is the source of kinema
is the source of nicola the tata motion
of ram is the source of trader
yosef is the transmitter of taylor
rashbe is the source of
the one who took teresa and teresa
to reveal it to the world through
all of them were quarantined for weeks
or for days or for years this is the
e-board base how sure
to emerge what does this tell us now you
understand the song
over there you acquired your height
and your hudder let's now bring this
home to us
rabbi say
what does this mean by us it means that
whenever
you are quarantined it's in order to
bring out
a new oil a new light that's
unprecedented
a light in yourself a light in your
spouse
a light in each one of your children a
light in each one of your family members
a light in each one of your community
members
a light a new urine cloudy stroll and a
new earth a new light
among all of us and ultimately a new
light into the world
the ibor is there to bring a new gula
galas is called ibur
and gaola is called leiden
this doesn't mean it's easy it doesn't
mean it's kashmak it doesn't mean you
ask for it
what it means is there's two types of
people
there are people who live with insanely
useless people who live with panemias
when you live with kids superficiality
then you look and you say
and that makes sense because we live in
a world of
where you teaches us you have to go to
the panemias
you look at the premiers you say
if you wouldn't have seen me like this
what do i say to you what do i say to me
a whole new reality
comes from
right now hashem gave us a historic
opportunity
to reveal a new light yes we were sent
home
we're quarantined we're our loan
social distancing we don't know exactly
when it's going to be over bayesian
hashem
things will return to normal but don't
let things
just return to normal he didn't come out
from the mighty and say okay
back to normal no from this miter we got
this
but this mighty we got the twenty four
answers of sherman yeah on every
question
from this mighty we got the hoyt and the
that's why they light fires unlike
boimer to show that the fire of
saudi is inextinguishable and where did
he get this fire
where did he get this passion when did
he get this light he got it in the
mirror
one special area where there's a new
light that's being born now
is in the realm of actus israel
i want you to know i want you to know as
this fabrega is going on
there's also hot solathon tonight
tomorrow or most of the day tomorrow
night
and the organizers i spoke to the
organizers
they told me an interesting thing when
they started to work on it
some people said it's impossible you're
going to bring together
every hazola from every community in
north america
like in all jewish organizations there's
politics it can't work
there's too many interests they're good
people but everyone has their own way of
doing things
they said no this is a new opportunity
in claudius
and look they brought them all together
and it's not an easy thing to do
i knew a little bit what was going on
behind the scenes incredible opportunity
now
this is a new era and the new era means
the world has changed and now there's
only one question
have i changed have you changed can we
change
and what does it mean to change change
doesn't mean
that you go through cosmetic surgery
change means that you go back to your
epinemius
you go back to the core self that's
pre-trauma
pre-ego pre-pettiness
pre-jealousy free insecurity
pre-anxiety pre-stress
to go into the mighty go back into your
sheidish
and you'll see all the fights that we
have
the people i don't speak to so i'll have
a laval
it's coming because i'm such a small
person i don't know my godless
if you would know your godless nephesh
if you would understand who you
are it's a pastness
passage how can the be a mathias
the fabregas i could speak blunt how
could the beyond see us
that one hassan is not on speaking terms
with another hustle how could there be
such a match
for this
so that what that we should become petty
and small people
it doesn't mean there's no tightness it
doesn't mean
you don't sometimes get an arbitrator it
doesn't mean you don't have to work out
issues but it means a person without
lebanese
you have to live with a godless
don't be small be big
ask yourself a question soon the ghoul
is coming
when mashiach is going to come how are
you going to live
that's how you should live now if
there's a telephone call you have to
make
and you're not making it because you
have a breakup ask yourself
if meshiach was here would you also not
make the telephone call
if
you also not make a telephone call and
then it would be different
that's now that's now the energy of the
ghoul is already in the world we
have to embrace it we have to embrace it
many of us including myself russia shiva
many people sitting here
heard from the rabbit many many times in
1991 1992
that ebb said that the presence and the
oil of machias in the world we have to
take it inside of us
you and me what does it mean take it
inside what am i supposed to do only
hashem decides when the ghoula comes not
me not anybody else
who can't be dicey because hashem
decides what it does mean is i can start
living with a consciousness of golem how
do you live with the conscience of
golola
you don't allow the sahara to dominate
your life
i don't allow the pettiness the
insecurities of course i have
insecurities
of course i have an ego of course i have
yeshua's
first to have trauma of course i have
issues who doesn't have issues
i don't know about you maybe you guys
are gonna know haven't it
comments and diets
of course i have one but you don't give
the backseat driver the wheel
you have a backseat driver and he tells
you take the light but you're holding
the wheel you decide
we have to we have to identify a new
part in us and live with that
when you wake up in the morning and you
say
that
and you wash your hands and you say
stop lifeless
think you need to take a deep breath
take a deep breath
and tell yourself
twenty times fifty times maybe a hundred
times the tahereh means light
aramaic tahira means light tahiri then
is uh it's the light of hashem in the
world
who am i i am the light of hashem in the
world
i'm a manifestation of hashem in this
world
shalom
so when i wake up in the morning i look
at myself i have to say who am i
i'm a shliyak of hashem and therefore
i represent them so i'm invincible
i'm destruct indestructible i'm full of
power and confidence and joy
and health and strength i'm invincible
because i'm an ambassador of hashem my
whole eye is a helical
i'm a conduit for hashem that's how i
live
that's how i make my telephone calls
that's how i run my business
that's how i relate to my wife that's
why i relate to my husband that's why i
relate to my children that's why i went
to my grand are there other voices in me
that say
no you're jealous he's going to take
away your business
he insulted you she doesn't like you he
doesn't like you
nobody likes you you're a loser you're
schlamazel
you're schlemiel you're a nude nick
you're an idiot
you're
i know i have all these voices also you
think it was the instagram
i also have all these voices the voice
says
i know it there's a voice so the voice
so he said but i don't have to listen to
that voice
i don't have to identify with that voice
which voice do you have to identify with
you have to identify with the voice that
says
that you are a shliyak of hashem
every single moment in this world and
therefore
[Music]
you are infinite you are a piece of
infinity
rashbee says at the end of massachusetts
when i was a child by the lagboemer
parades
that ebby used to say over this gemara
mcgill
and his voice echoed on the whole
eastern parkway
oh my ribs
jews are beloved wherever they were
exiled wherever
a jew ends he's not alone
but of course when they go back to the
ghoul
not the skinners okay i'm gone
the ghoul happens that way
this doesn't mean i don't have issues
but i can identify the part of me that's
infinite
or i can live with the part of me that's
in golos and fahaka
then when you live with this part you
could forgive
you could make up with people you could
renew relationships
so i wanted to ask you it's like
ask yourself is there somebody that i
don't speak to
call them up send them a message
is just somebody you have a fight with
it doesn't mean you have to agree about
everything
it doesn't mean you have to become the
best and closest brothers and friends
but it means that we have to live in a
world where there's ava
the achvi
if you need somebody to help straighten
out issues so you go to somebody
but this idea of not speaking to people
and hating people
and living in this negativity and toxic
energy
you're in the wrong time of history my
friends
enough living in a gullos enslaved
mentality
where you feel that you're gonna gain
more from negative energy
doesn't work that way don't be stingy
with love
there's a new era in the world we have
to be the agents of hashem's love and
compassion in this world
be kind to people you're going to see
people in the street after we come
out greet them
see people in shul give them a hug be
kind be
loving lift up people empower people
a physical hug or an emotional hug or a
verbal hug
don't be stingy with your love give
gist gist ava
nasa adam
[Music]
nasa adam he was thinking about you
[Music]
and you shy and you'd have label
and you tied my and you read mandolin
you read michael he was thinking about
you
nasa he was thinking you're the adam
you're you you are it me me
yeah you you you you why because if you
could be megalo in yourself the mitzits
of rashbee
and when you emerge you will have so
much light to give
to yourself and people you'll bring in a
new light into the world
that's our mission today we need this
clarity
it's a time of leadership not a
victimhood it's a time to
facilitate a new hizgalos
a new gula a new birth after this
terrible pandemic
it devastated many a family it
devastated many a community
some of us have lost close friends
relatives
teachers ms salto mishamino
from the best and the holiest of so many
communities
including of khabad in france
in crown heights where i am in muncie
and other communities around the world
especially in crown heights
where misalto mishamna some of my
neighbors
relatives teachers people we looked up
to
people who were icons people who were
legends
i saw today or yesterday a picture of
the matsteve
by groaner a blade groaner nearer beyond
incline and initial mendel simpson
my person burst out crying
because like the end of an era the end
of an era
you know whenever i saw label groaner
even 20 years after that business after
gimmel thomas 25 years
you saw that when he still remembered
right away did ever because whenever
wherever you saw that ever you knew
labor groaners somewhere behind there
the end of an error at the end of a
trophen it's sad
it's not easy
and so many other great people and
greatness shamans and great souls
that were taken from us but here's the
rule
the end of an era is also the beginning
of a new era
this is the end of an era but is it
going to be the end of a narrow the
beginning of a new era
now we need the beginning of a new era
the beginning of a new
that depends on all those who are
zoyster to be here in the maida
and celebrate like we don't believe in
despair
we don't believe in yosh i once heard
from the rabbi these words
if a yid has used it's because there's
no das
the common
i think they say that it comes from the
helicopter stroller
that's what i read once but i remember
once by a fabregas
there's no years
we don't despair we never despair why
because we say
[Music]
don't cry for me that i'm a tragedy
no we're living in painful times in
tragic times
but don't start weeping that nebach
we're lost
we're goners no this is the beginning
of a tremendous light that's going to
emerge from this
a new consciousness of gula what does it
mean practically a consciousness of
gullah
dalai mah like us
get rid of uproot every last vestige of
of stupidity of sin on
of not speaking with other people or
fighting with other people
of la shanhara of gossiping all this
comes when i think i'm a small
tiny little creature when you realize
can cite for them who has time for this
but after the commission
if i love the real me i love you because
we're
one if i love the fake me then i don't
have issues with you
now is the time to start loving the real
you the pneumonious of you
and then you love everybody you get
along with everybody even if we're
different personalities i don't have to
be you have your personality
but i can get along with you i could
respect you i can embrace you i could
tell you good shabbos
i could support you i could be here for
you and you could be here for me
the key in life is not to agree with
each other the key in life is to be here
for each other
like your husband and a wife what's a
good marriage a good marriage is that
you always agree with your husband
how could you be a jewish wife if you
always agree with your husband
then it's if tyche is connected she has
to disagree with him
really you have the same touch on toyota
era
connected against of course we disagree
so
what i don't need you to agree with me i
need you to have my back
you need me to have your back i need you
to be here for me i need to feel that i
can
trust you a hundred percent and you have
to feel that you can trust me hundred
percent
we don't have to agree we have to be
able to trust each other to be here for
each other
and sometimes you need boundaries
certain people you may need boundaries
but
hatred
the whole community of new haven who
brought us together tonight for
him and all of the people who are
gathered here from the whole world
wherever you are from any stream that
you're gathered from any website you
gathered from
him i send you my love my deepest love
my deepest blessings
that all of us should be able to utilize
these moments and especially the yoyma
goddal
of like of barrio
the day of um
and to be able to appreciate our
togetherness as much as we appreciate
our individuality
never would always say by the google we
have tupsuckin
every person individually and call
godline it's not a sita
yiddish has two basic foundations we're
one
and we're individual and the two don't
contradict each other
the two complement each other because
when you understand what a jew is you
understand that your individuality
contributes to the community
and the community is not here to cancel
out the individuality but to enhance the
individuality
the rats
the source
if not the physical fire more important
than the physical fire is the spiritual
fire
to light up the aish tommy
the fire of yiddish and the fire of
pneumonias of yiddish
fire of rashbe and in order to do this
you have to light the fire every morning
how do you light the fire every morning
you learn
with a fire and i'll finish with this
famous story
i also heard the story from the rabbi
that that rebel
and his older brother did some and aaron
when they were children
they were playing khasid like you play
house
shop was a little kid i think he was
like four years old five years old
and he went into his older brother like
a rabbit
and he played house playing rebecca and
he said zalman aaron or absolute
what's a jew and his brother said
another little kid his brother said
ayid is fire a jew is fire
so the rebel shap said if a jew is fire
why would i touch you don't i get burnt
so he says
[Music]
you're also fire and when fire touches
fire
you don't get burns when fire touches
fire becomes a bigger fire
eden i.e this fire you have to look at
yourself and see
fire age hashem
when you touch another jew what are you
touching you're touching fire
fire and fire don't burn each other fire
and fire
become one big shall everest that's the
gemarian sighted of your design that
some of you are learning
together with the youth and the hay
that's a fire that doesn't destroy
that's a fire that brightens and
illuminates that's the fire of like
boimer
that's the maduras of rashbe this fire
which is tumid which is eternal which is
timeless
may we ignite this fire at this present
moment in our lives
and bring this fire and this light to so
many others
until we experience because of the new
dawn
of
taker from mama
let's take some questions first time
megan and then some questions
whoever has uh
what would like to ask a question could
the ask on the chat
okay let's see we have here
i'm in boulder colorado welcome from
boulder colorado
thank you for your kind words everybody
i see a lot of people wrote very nice
words thank you very much
okay yes thank you doctor
the causative bacterium is
herania bacterium diphtheria
that was the bacteria that killed tamil
in the cottage system
the rabbit tells a story that abhyakovic
saul of church
asked his future son-in-law howie davins
and he said sibur
but then he saw that he wasn't about
that's when he said that he heard from
the tsa in the name of the altar
that philip is that you bring together
all the
beautiful beautiful okay you're telling
me that i'm unmute i hope i wasn't on
mute the whole time
adam the alien was set through
but if you looked it up and said if i
stand corrected i stand corrected
but i'm not sure i stand corrected
okay any other questions let's see
donate for hot solid saved your brother
i agree
awesome as always thank you melbourne
australia thank you melbourne for being
here
the connection of all the tsadikim who
were in prison
uh reba you're going to make the
recording available i could you could
send it to me i'll make it available so
you can hear it again you'll hear about
ovitz
speak about mr mr whom the event was
sponsored for
a big big loss to the whole community
special special man a heart filled with
love and kindness i knew him i knew it i
still remember his father
what's the connection between lag by
aimer and children the valdica question
one of the connection is that shimon ban
khayi and the zoya speaks a lot about
children
and he says that when mashiach comes the
children are all going to be filled with
ponemia satire
so like became a day when we celebrate
especially children
i think there's other explanations but
this is one of them hello from sydney
australia
we're looking forward to your next visit
okay we could do a zoom visit
zoom it's much cheaper and it's much
easier we'll have to get into a plane
i'm spoiled now how is the best
way to start working on our pneumous oh
finally absolutely
what's the best way to start working on
our premiums
the best way to start working on your
premiums is
by start working on your premiums if i
start telling you how to work on your
produce it's not going to be your
premiums
at best it's going to be me you have to
work on your epitomes
the best way is
you spend time with your neshama when
you
haven't daven with you shamayim with ava
focus on one paragraph every day for a
few minutes
you say avas
think about the words if you don't
understand hebrew
use another siddha learn the meaning of
the words
think about it reflect on it it's very
very important you should have a sheer
insidis
at least a few times a week if not every
day
but you have to have a good teacher or a
good safer just to learn on your own
most people
have a problem applying it to their
lives
either you have a good teacher and what
do i mean a good teacher not a smart
teacher
it's good to have a smart teacher
teacher who helps you bring the my
mother into your life
you learn a mind it should change you if
it doesn't change you it's not learning
to do this
so this has to change you so start
learning either with a safer
a lot of the translations are not going
to help you change
you'll know ideas ah
kiss
it's beautiful to learn it has to change
your life
if you want you know for many years i
gave a daily shear in territory on the
torah and the cavity there always one i
should bring it down practically
so if you go to the yeshiva.net you go
to the siddha section you'll see lakuta
tita there's a few hundred
maybe that's good for you but find a
teacher
or a safer or a harusa or an mp3
in any language but it should speak to
you in a shaman start learning that's
number two
number three you have to speak to
somebody
a friend a teacher a mentor
somebody who's good who gets you you
have to speak to them
what's going on in your life what's
going on in your middles
you need somebody you could trust that
you open up to
those are the three deciders of starting
to work on your epitomes
let's go to the next question
thank you from buffalo you're welcome
how do you think the world will be
after things go back to normal
that depends on you and me where the
world
that depends on you on me
where the world the fear
depends on you and me if we become
if we become deeper people
will spread the light the truth is the
world wants to change
everybody even not jews not jews but
as jews we're supposed to be the moral
ambassadors
to teach the world that's our job erla
ghayem to light up the world
our family greatly enjoys the sheardom
for the teens
thank you from the wraths of new haven
thank you i see
you guys are sitting here mamash for
almost two hours listening all the
kinder luck
he didn't even go away once i'm amazed
huh no add in the family
hashem amazing wow i wish i would be
able to concentrate to my
with my teachers that way i couldn't sit
still for five minutes that's why i
became a speaker because i can't listen
my wife always tells me my wife always
says
my wife was why do you give such long
speeches you would never listen to your
speeches
you would run away after five minutes
why do you give such
she has a point how can we say that
baker's students
stop passing away if they were none left
but five
is there a cross-reference in history to
a plague that killed the 24 000 students
it's an excellent question listen this
is the second century after the common
era
there were plo probably many many
plagues we know that even in the 1500s
and the 1600s
there was so many plagues you know that
some of the great swarm were written
during pandemics you know that
there are more wrote them in a mcgillis
esther during a pandemic you know he ran
away from krakow
a place called shidlove the clay yucca
wrote a sephirah mood
shaish when he was in quarantine you
know that the brother of the maharal
rabbit sallow wrote a safer called safer
when he was in quarantine you know that
is a safe shame
he wrote it when he was in quarantine he
was running away from the pandemic
i once saw the besieged finished when he
ran away from a pandemic
so it's interesting they used quarantine
in govaldica ways
but listen the time of the students will
be akiva i don't know that
there would be historic records for it i
wouldn't be shocked if there's not i
never heard
but it's not really my field but i never
heard of it you're asking a question
if there were only five left
what's up pandemic stopped
it could be it could be two things it's
a good question
it's discussed in a few places i have to
research it but if i'm not mistaken
there's two ideas
number one a pandemic doesn't stop
it kills twenty four thousand people and
the next day it could kill sixty
thousand people
outside of the students of ebi akiva so
perhaps that's the celebration that
didn't spread further to other people
or there were more students perhaps
there were more students who remained
alive
but maybe they were not
ready or or suitable that ibakiva should
be able to begin
a whole new uh movement of turtle with
them
so you have to go find new ones that's
also possible it's a good question it's
a good question i saw it asked
and i don't remember what other people
answer why
i'm trying to get the question
somebody's moving the chat
remember this we did already you're
going up you have to go down
who's moving the ch two too many chefs
spoil the dish let me do it please
shoot fizz good okay
next uh adam alayan okay we did that
we did that the volume is on he's a
great inspiring speaker tell my
mother-in-law what are you telling me
for
okay very good could you please say the
connection i told you we'll get a
recording
so we don't have to cause it over the
words next question
how do we movatle the
the wish to force a vaccine into us and
turn us into slaves
onto constant watch of technology when
we we
all unite and demand meshiach we should
all unite in the man
no question in terms of the vaccines for
this area this is really not my field
i'm not a doctor i'm not a physician i
never went to medical school even one
day
do we know why the rabbit shows the
parade format for
we don't see this by any other yomtif
that the parade format was chosen
interesting interesting question
i'm not sure why the debbie chose this i
think
i don't know but i heard from the
herschel fogelman
remember rebecca fogerman from worcester
i heard from the version fogelman
that geval de kavart you know in 1941 or
42 the rebel
yachts founded mesibis shabbos
he had every shabbos afternoon bahrain
and young
should gather children many of them were
in public schools there were not many
jewish day schools and make with them
shabbos remember
yiddish guide was still very active in
america in terms of
zadis who were very jewish but there was
no infrastructure of education that's
where the generation was lost
but shabbos afternoon you know they
would still have sudha
make them shabbos and give nash and say
them and tell stories and sing
and he the freedom could
but the end is going to be transformed
the whole world with territory with
yiddish kind
i think that for the rabbit the whole
idea of parades
was a very powerful tool to express
what's called yiddish
staltz jewish pride in america one of
the worst challenges is
self-hating jews embarrassed
assimilation you have to out gentile the
gentiles
you have to hide your identity and don't
be too jewish
you know you want to fit in you don't
want to create anti-semitism
and they'd ever felt that this path is
going to
destroy the jewish people and i think he
felt that a thing like a parade bringing
our children to the street
making them feel proud of their jewish
march with
simsa and somehow
i think he felt that this is a
tremendous opportunity
to really access that energy of like one
but it was always a minute to take
children to the fields
and bow and arrows and say them and
learn
outside and have and have misibis right
the middle episode used to go to the
field and everything
i think that ever just took it one notch
further to be able to actually go to the
street and turn it into a parade which
would be an expression of real
jewish pride and dignity which i think
that ever felt
would be crucial to the survival and
transformation
of modern day jury and look at the
results the results
are on incredible we want the whole
jewish world
the sense of jewish jews jews coming out
of the closet
whoever from yeshiva university to
satman
from baba to kluisenberg from the
literature to the yeshiva
from the laboratory to the guerra and
everybody in
in between even those who are left from
orthodoxy
but they had a certain stall a certain
pride of yiddish kite
that was all a creation that didn't
happen on its own
and i think ideas like the lagbo imma
pray the methylene
all contributed to this not always
consciously even unconsciously
even unconscious
he would go from city to city and he
would gather people to speak about
vayikra
basement
yachting
that's why there were always miracles
about couples getting pregnant
is it also an asia russian for other
holy things in life
like parnosa shalombayas and asidah
listen i can't tell you you know i don't
have these types of knowledges from the
source but
the boy was considered an aesthetic
considered a big ace rat sin so
i'm sure it's an ace racing for health
no question it's also one of the days
that the rebel would always go to the
scene of his father-in-law
uh he would only go twice a month right
and everybody would go like button
obviously it's pretty
[Music]
what would you suggest to learn with
someone las vegas
it's hard to answer as i without knowing
who he is how old he is what the issues
are
if it's intellectual if it's emotional
his background it's very hard
you can email me privately and give me
details and i'll answer you rabbi why
why
the yeshiva.net rabbi y yeshiva.net but
you have to give me more details
i did do on the muna series for the
islam in muncie
we went through a lot of usages of
ammuna 30 shirin
called the basics of ammuna every
thursday night
you could find it on the website the
yeshiva.net t-h-e
y-e-s-h-i-v-a dot net
put in a muna series and you'll see
around 30
on your side of the moon
chosen people you know why is there pain
in the world these types of issues
and that may be very helpful also it's
around 30 shirt
you could watch them on double speed so
you don't have to listen to
so slow what will we do if there is no
davening for a shoshone
kipper we will need social distancing
how
can we go to shul how will we be able to
go to show what do we do to shoshone
kipper listen i'm not guessing i don't
know
hopefully shawnee and kipp will be over
but
we don't get afraid for saddam devils
even if the social distancing maybe you
need more space but that's not the end
of judaism judaism is not dependent
on if i go to show judaism is dependent
on hashem
you turn your house into a shore
so by staying home you're going to save
lives that's the mitzvah
in the midst of your mr stay home and
save lives
remember in the beginning of jewish
history there were no shulls
it was a basa after the
started to be shulls now before meshiach
what does hashem want
every home should be a mikt every home
should be a shul
every home should be a mini baster you
know the zephorne writes
that if not for the ego it wouldn't have
been a mishkan
every home would have been abhis it
wouldn't have been a michigan
because of the ego the shrine went into
the base
now it's before mashiach so maybe hashem
says i want to shine in your house
starving a house learning a house turn
your house into a mini base
don't be scared of this how can i make
islamic volumes special
there's no bonfires there's no parades
what should i do on my bible
first of all you're here so it's already
special
that's number one number two you could
put on music in your house
and dance number three you could learn
more toyota
give more stock
to you make another shirt
you could learn something about about me
that's what you should do
12 years in the cave writing the zayar
wasn't enough it resulted in destruction
what was needed was another year to rise
to the level of avas israel to put
theoretical knowledge into practice
with the favor of delineating the the
the
quarium for the kyani
he went out after 12 years and he was
sent right back because there was
missing the sensitivity to other people
argentina joining us from argentina
welcome argentina
practical advice for a family at home
trying to keep up with the small details
like school
housework being home all day to take and
make the most of this time
okay listen you gotta cut everybody's
slack it's hard for everybody people are
bored
and siblings fight with each other so
you have to know
not to sweat the small stuff but it's
important to try to have family dinner
put away all the phones no screams there
has to be a few
hours without screens when you're
darvening no screens
try to learn face to face not only zoom
so there's no screens
it's not good to have screens all day by
dinner if you have a family lunch
family dinner family breakfast no
screens
you could talk to each other try to play
games together
maybe dance maybe do a game of simple
simon says
maybe draw a project maybe some of them
could wear musical instruments
maybe you could do something with family
do zoom chats with with grandparents
with uncles with aunts with friends
you could you could try to do things
together with
as a family as much as you can it's not
always going to be easy not everybody's
always going to join
you know teenagers sometimes have their
moods and their issues
and you have to give everybody their
space but don't worry don't try to
control every detail but it's important
to have family time
it's important to speak it's important
to chat it's important to schmooze it's
important to listen to each other
but bring with each other very important
take every day or walk with your spouse
20 minutes 30 minutes 40 minutes of
course according to the guidelines of
the
health officials a walk without phones
but take a walk
if you can't take a walk spend time on
the porch spend time on the front porch
spend time in the living room
very important to work to speak to your
spouse every day a little time a little
time take a walk
try to spend a little time with the
children
learn with a child it's a great time to
learn daven together if you can
play a game together watch something
interesting together you could watch one
of my classes together
or something else that's interesting but
do something do just try to do things
that can bring the family together
in conversation and play in simcha
music dancing a family in england i
called somebody in england he says oh
they're doing musical cheers they're
doing a game of musical cheers another
family was doing a game of monopoly or
family was playing chess
or simple i liked that they were just
bonding with their kids it's great
again not every kid you know maybe
start learning machines every day with
your child
at least one of the children with one of
your children
but it's a very special time to find
different ways
of bonding and don't try to it should be
perfect it's not perfect by anybody
trust me
everybody's climbing walls
i have a nephew
that has drawn on his partial papers
angry faces
when asked he said hashem is angry at
those who don't listen
okay
[Music]
okay so it's important to listen to him
and
uh he's probably a little boy so it's
good to listen to him
and i try to understand what he's saying
and you want to try to bring into the
conversation the insiders of the balsham
how hashem loves every jew infinitely
more than parents love a child who was
born when they couldn't expect anymore
to have a child the famous vertov
the binyamin katz zakhoinel of new haven
was one of the founders of new haven
community
who was the first to reach out to the
meisha eisenberg who was secular at the
time
the yemen katz was a pillar of new haven
and the pride and joy of new haven
uh when i came to visit his wife
abbotson cats to laying a yarn for shiva
in new haven so she shared with me a
very interesting story
i don't know if you guys know it but
it's like a schmackamais she said
that after the wedding she married
rebecca colonel of raja
so they had a few different offers for
jobs and he really wanted to go into the
tram of ascana
satire and he had a few very nice offers
in europe
in europe and he didn't even
think of going to new haven he didn't
want to go to his father-in-law
he didn't want to go you know
so she said they went on here looked
through everything
he looked through everything she
mentioned the place i don't remember
and then it ever says
why don't you go to new haven
your father-in-law needs teachers
so he tells the debba that
he doesn't want to work for a shred
i don't want to work for my
father-in-law
i don't want to work for my
father-in-law so that ever looks up at
him
and says
i work for my father-in-law i'm very
happy
you can also work for your father-in-law
but they didn't have a house so they
thought they'll move into the moisture
house and they live in like one of the
floors in one of the sections so you
said zois
no no no don't live in the same house
like your father i'm not that much you
have to have your own house
to work for your father-in-law but you
have to have your own you wouldn't let
them move into that house i thought that
was very interesting
so that be said for my schweinsteiger
i asked rabbits and cats i said that
rabbits and yeah rabbits and cats
i said uh did you did you schmidt did
your husband tell the debba
that you know my schwed is a great man
but he's not like you're schmed
he's not your schmidt he said no no
one's that ever said that once the devil
was comparing
his working for his shredder and his
work of israel he understood that this
is where he's going to have atlanta
i thought that's a beautiful story
thank you from florida okay you're
welcome how much is acceptable
and requested to change to make your
spouse close friends family happy
even if it means letting go of what you
want
this is the story of life this is what
we try to do we try to make
our spouse happy and our family happy
but i don't know what it means to let go
of what you want
if it's something that's very very very
important to you so you have to find a
way
if it's something that's not so
important but something that she really
needs why would that take away from you
if your wife needs certain things in the
house and it's going to make her feel
very very good so we all learn to
compromise that's what we do in a
marriage
you compromise for the sake of your wife
and the sake of your husband
if it's something that's going to be
horrible for you and it's going to
destroy your life
then of course not but i don't know what
would be such a thing i mean but there's
things that a wife wants or a husband
wants or needs
and that's what we do we listen and we
try to compromise and we want to make
other people happy
and the truth is if you have a good
marriage when the other person is happy
you become much happier it feels much
better it's much better
so i i don't understand exactly like why
would this be so
miserable for you to make to make her
happy what is she
asking for that's going to destroy you
know your life and if it's just
extra things then of course you want to
compromise that's what couples do
and we try to be there for our siblings
we try to be there for our parents we
try to be there of course
for our spouses we try to be there for
our children but of course you have to
make sure that your needs whatever you
need in kashmir
if you have certain sensitivities
certain things that bother you you
shouldn't ignore that
i'm not saying you should ignore
yourself
but you have to always differentiate
between your spoiled self and your real
self
we love you thank you very much
i have grown so much from your thank you
thank you thank you for your very kind
words
i've grown from your wonderful and heart
piercing fiery terror and lessons
thank you and i see that you're called
haravatzadek that's a very special
compliment
okay salmi i know this is a sensitive
question
how does one know what hashem wants from
him in life beyond halacha
if the life decisions that are made
continuously
finish as dead ends is there a way to
determine what
is and what is not the right thing to do
in parnasso
and other areas that's a beautiful
beautiful question
and the answer of course to this is we
have to look
at a few issues number one you have to
look at what your kashmiris are
when a person has special talents and
resources and gifts
you have to maximize them that's part of
ratsuna
if i have or you have certain gifts and
every person has special contribution to
make to this world
so hashem endowed you with these things
you must actualize your constrainers
whatever they may be
for one person it's money for another
person it's the mouth another person
it's the head for another person it's a
pen
for another person it's education for
another person it's writing for another
person it's communication for another
person it's dreaming for another person
it's a big heart
and for another person it's tackles mice
every person has
unique cricus and that's part of your
slickest in the world that's number one
number two if there's something that's
very difficult for you
but you know that this is necessary for
you it's probably part of your slickest
listen to what i'm saying if there's
something that you know is hard for you
but you know that this is important for
you
it's probably part of your slickers and
that's why the hr is finding it
and that's why you're having
difficulties beyond that it's important
to have
advice from people you need close
friends or a mentor
confidante or a confidant with people
who you can speak to about your
struggles your issues what's going on
people who have your back who you trust
and they trust you
so these are all things that can help
you figure out
what's right for you and what's not
right for you
of the rabbit so he was like the fleet
of keraba and the rebels
so that was the answer to the benyamin
cat saying that it is
i know that 100 100
i know that the gomorrah says that david
didn't sin by marrying basheva
how can we understand this it's a great
great question this is a whole sugya but
it's beyond
it's beyond the present fabregan uh the
famous gomarium of mitsia right
marijuana hey
it's a very very important sugar but
it's beyond the realm of this
year we see how big people end up doing
bad
things and it throws me off
the gomorrah says
whoever is bigger has a bigger yet
remember
every force in kedusha has a counter
force and the opposite of kedusha
and therefore whenever you have a person
who's big
and talented and creative and
resourceful
and has a big mind and a big heart yet
sahara is also big
and that's why sadly sometimes bigger
people
end up becoming more corrupt power
corrupts
absolute power corrupts absolutely
that's why it's so important to work on
yourself
that's why the most important thing is
avoid the pynemis
you have to work on yourself
who are present with us may be known it
is the famous talk of the rebbe of
nisantop right you heard about this
hundreds of times
that the debbie said that i tried
after everything i have done i was
ineffective i did not bring down the
gool of the pile
i was unsuccessful it was la hevel
valeric
you know that afterwards that ebba added
a few words you know what else he added
yeah
you know let me tell you listen to this
that episode after everything i tried
doing the bottom line i didn't
accomplish mashiach did not come
didn't bring me you know
there's something even more that i
didn't accomplish
that people did not go out of the golus
i was unsuccessful in helping people
leave their
inner gullets he said this is even more
painful
you understand this
we always hear the first half that ebb
said i could tried i tried i tried
machias didn't come
everyone now has to do what they can to
change the world and bring the ghoul but
the rabbi added something else that he
wasn't
successful i tried that people should go
out of their inner goals and avoid this
accept
and i was unsuccessful
that's why i tell you the most important
thing to repay yourself for the ghoul is
go
out of my own golus the goal is me
i am in gullis in myself in my own
nephesha bahamas in my own trauma and my
own ego
my own insecurities and my own filth
i have to go out of that goalless i have
to become an ambassador
of light in my own life and when you're
a big person
you have bigger assiness and people fail
so that's not a reason to get turned off
it's a reason to get turned on
and to understand how important it is to
work on yourself so that it doesn't
happen to you
that's what it is and i'll remember
something else
we don't connect to hashem through
people we connect hashem directly
you know god doesn't have grandchildren
he only has children
never worship people to the point that
you get disappointed the problem is
yeah and i know it's true sometimes a
person
becomes a baltrue and he looks up to
arov or rebits him because they made him
a volca
and then the rabbi makes a mistake and
the multivator gets turned off from you
don't worship people learn from people
get inspired from people
you can ask advice from people you could
be a student of people
but don't worship people you worship
only hashem
people have yet saharas people make
mistakes
when you don't have a relationship with
hashem directly it's always through a
rabbi
or a rabbitson you get let down and it's
not fair to you
of course we look up to people
you want to be inspired by people but
don't worship people every person has a
yate sahara you have to remember that
we don't worship people we worship god
it's a much more real way of living
when you stop worshiping people you'll
be better off because i'll tell you why
people are not perfect if you haven't
figured it out yet
even in new haven maybe rabbi had the
cover is an exception
and even he has obstacles
one day rabbi khadukov will tell you
about an answer he got from the rabbit
a few weeks before that ever strong
every person has a yeti every person is
imperfect
i'll tell you a secret okay
even i'm imperfect you know that
and if you don't believe me you can ask
my mother-in-law
and if you don't believe my
mother-in-law you can ask my wife
and if you don't believe my wife you can
ask my mother actually no my mother
probably thinks i'm perfect
every person has khasirenas every person
i'm going to tell you a mice
i heard this myself it's such a classic
story i love the story
it's so human and it's so gesh i heard
this from himself
he knows the person it happened to he
says ayid went into the rabbi
and he tells the rabbit that he's very
unhappy with
him castleman was the legendary masjid
of the yeshiva temple and he starts
telling the rebbe
a lot of negative things about the
absolute castle and he did this and this
this and this
and that ever stopped him and that ever
said
episodes about himself you know what i
also have flaws
but let me tell you something let me
tell you something i get letters
from all of the khabar siddha
these are his words
our students of
that's his and he told us over to him
shalom died she told it to me
told it to me what was the number
telling him you're telling me
someone is not perfect i know it was
like
let me tell you about myself that's how
the rabbis spoke you know
but he said look at the product
the man is working hard he's raising a
generation of sydney
are there questions yeah are there
imperfections yeah
what what do you want that ever should
fire every spear because he's not the
perfect
but you don't worship people you don't
worship hamas
you don't worship a rabbi you don't
worship at abbotson
they're not perfect they have kasrinas
they have yet saharas
even the bigger of a bigger of there's a
dinner
you made up second show me the source
there's a homosexual called
you know that the sanhedrin
sanhedrin they got smith all the way to
mushroom they could make a mistake
because they're people people could make
a mistake and they have to bring a
carpet
it's called par helen dover salt zebra
this doesn't mean they're not holy it
doesn't mean they're not great
and it doesn't mean they were really
really great you're talking about the
sanhedrin
but they're still people now certainly
in our generation we don't have the
sanhedrin
we have to realize big people could make
mistakes
don't worship people worship hashem
you don't build your relationship with
hashem through people you build your
intellectual directly
directly there's a moderates of word
that they avoid from the moderates
you know why hashem was telling every
jew even if i don't have the rest of
claudius
i'm good as long as i have you i'm
that a lot a lot of great people are
really not real they're not authentic
so that's why what that's why you're not
making them
you have a direct relationship with
hashem you're not hashem's
great-grandchild you're hashem's child
we don't have muhammad you don't worship
hashem through an arov
through an intermediary assailant you
take
guidance you ask a shailer okay
you take guidance we all need mentors we
all know people to consult
we don't worship people as flawless and
then you won't get turned off when
people make mistakes because they have
yet so hardest
every person has aitsuhara remember that
it'll be much healthier if everybody
knows that
yes is it is it very painful when a big
man falls of course it's painful
of course it's painful it's called it's
very painful
a lot of questions
you seem to be enjoying the zoom style
of shurima fabregan's
when this magef is over you're going to
go back to airplanes and traveling
i'll tell you the truth the first few
weeks of the coronavirus
i was home in shul shabbos yeah i told
my wife it's
the first chambers i said it's the
shabbos have to put shampoo
i want to show the shampoos after that i
said i think it's the first chambers in
20 years
that i didn't give it to russia
and you know what you know the famous
verdict it says
so there's a famous word that always
moisture was speaking and speaking and
speaking suddenly adam gave a direction
wow you could listen you don't have to
speak it's an old voice from darshan
it was very interesting experience to
sit shabbos at home
i usually give a shirt friday night shop
this morning before darwining and then
shop is the middle of davening and you
know it's very very intense
and it was shabbos there was nothing
going on i was learning lakota tayden in
the morning
with a family member with a little
coffee by the kitchen table which we
still do every shop this morning
we wake up in the morning and we learn
liquid to tight and then we dive in at
home
and i have to say that you know there
were so many tragedies but there was a
very interesting experience
how things are going to be when we all
go back listen going on airplanes and
traveling
is very exciting but it's also hard it's
not so easy
it takes a toll and even though i feel
like i'm a 17 year old teenager but
unfortunately i'm not
i still wish i was a 17 year old
teenager in spirit i am
but i'm not mamish so it does take a
toll and i would like to slow down a
little bit because uh
i also see the value of being at home or
but we'll see
listen wherever hashem wants me to be
that's where i'm going to be
why isn't basic english and math taught
in chabad schools
it seems to be needed for learning
toyota itself you don't like my english
vocabulary what
you know where i learned my english
and now you're opening up a
a pandura box this is a very heavy heavy
question
i mean i think most about schools do
teach english and math no
i mean i think most skills i mean i know
the school where i went to didn't teach
english and math but i think most
schools teach basic english and math
i don't know that basic english and math
is a problem to teach people it's
probably a
probably a good idea i know others have
done a lot of research i think my
brother rabbi simon jacobson did a lot
of research on this you could reach out
to him because he wrote a lot about this
and he told me once that he's not sure
that ever opposed basic english and math
i don't know generally we all know that
it ever felt
the young years of a child are so
powerful
that everything we teach them has to be
filled with your shamayim because these
are the years when you
shape their soul rabbi rabbi
shmuel godovich from from melbourne
australia
just lost his son in muncie from the
coronavirus
spoke to him about the schools in
melbourne this is what he told me i
heard this from his mouth
that ever said your curriculum has to be
on the highest level
academically the school should be often
hesitant
on the highest level and he says
they're looking at your school the about
school grower by growing the school
earlier
whatever the night what is it called
the the educational system in melbourne
fifteen hundred kids two thousand kids
so they look at you with seven eyes
shove up dikes
so you have to be on the highest level
in terms of academics in terms of your
shamayim in terms of
excellence
he says the secular the secular
curriculum should be
saturated with holiness because
everything in science and physics and
biology
and history could be a lesson in
avoidance hashem this is what he told
them
very fascinating idea so the debbie
generally wanted that young children
should be saturated with your shabbat
how every school does that they have to
figure out what's appropriate in their
community
that's the general answer which i think
is a very authentic answer
next question thank you from oregon
welcome oregon you could soon have here
a roll call a roll call
i'm divorced i'm a divorced mother and
far away from community
my child my child
went want my son to stay here my child's
dad wants my son to stay i feel that i
need to live in israel
but not know how to do it can i just
trust hashem
that my 11 year old child would join me
or i should wait till he's older
the most important thing is you have to
take care of yourself but you have to
take care of your child especially if
it's a divorce situation
you have to be very very sensitive to
your child's needs
so figure out what's the best way to do
whatever you're doing but in a way that
your child gets everything he needs
if that means you can't go to israel i
would say that it's better to stay with
your child
and not go to israel i don't know the
situation with his father with your
ex-husband
i don't know the relationship that he
has with him and with you and the
environment in his home in your home and
what the boy wants and where would be
best for the boy
i don't know so i can't answer from a
sophisticated or educated point of view
but generally speaking you want to make
sure
that this child is being nurtured
physically and emotionally and socially
and spiritually
and if that means that you can't go to
israel i would put the trip on hold
and if you have to go to israel so the
circumstances will be right that you can
go to israel maybe your son will go with
you to israel i don't know
but you have to be very sensitive to his
needs how come during sphere 24
000 people died and we mourn no haircuts
no music and then
one person dies and we celebrate how do
you understand this
the answer is my dearest friends because
they died
and it was a tragedy that they died it
was a pandemic
passed away a natural death
he prepared for it and he told his
students that on the day of his passing
they should always
make it a simcha so you're right when
somebody passes away it's a sad day but
he himself
asked that his passing should be a
similar now the question is why
and the reason for that is because the
shrimp when you saw his soul was
very very unique it was a unique soul
and he revealed the shama of the world
so the day that his neshama went up and
left the body
became a tremendous symbol but that's
because of his explicit request
is it okay to watch movies not bad ones
especially these days
this is too of a generic question i
don't know who you are
i don't know what type of house you're
in i don't know your background
i don't know the most of the environment
in your family your parents
i don't know about you you know you're
throwing out a question
obviously a bad movie that's immodest
or uh or filthy
and forbidden according to that's not a
question
but above that there's so many different
gradations
we always want to try to use every
single moment
to enhance our relationship with hashem
but part of our relationship with hashem
is people exercise
people take naps people take walks and
people go to work
and sometimes you just gotta you know
spend time
uh with people that you love you know we
have meals together we have fabregas
together
so every person's life really has to be
examined how is your life being used
but generally speaking you know
it's very easy for me to say that
most movies are probably not very
productive
probably most that i'm referring that
you're not probably referring to a movie
from the shiva.net of a rabbi yui class
or fabregan or shia
or a gem video or a different type of
video probably talking about other types
of things
but again the details without knowing so
much more
i can't give you i can't give you that
guidance but generally speaking you have
to be careful with these things and i'll
tell you why
there's a lot of addictions to screens
there's bakram that can watch movies
10 hours a day it doesn't start off with
one
so you have to be careful with this even
if what you're watching is halogenically
fine
and you say it relaxes you it helps you
maybe teaches you history
maybe you want to watch about the six
day war the pippa war the second world
war the first world war okay i
understand that
but very often you have to be careful
it's so addictive there's people
they go to sleep four o'clock in the
morning they wake up two o'clock in the
afternoon
they're addicted to screens so it could
be very very unhealthy so besides the
movie itself
you have to make sure that your
lifestyle is not one that's addicted to
screens and movies
especially a yeshiva you have to live
with yiddish kite live with taylor
same is true with a girl saying it's
true with a boy so you have to also be
very careful with this
because you know if it's one historic
documentary or another component
that you feel halogically is fine that's
one story
but you know what happens with
addictions and people get so attached to
it and it doesn't stop and sometimes it
destroys their whole schedule
i have seen boys who waste years years
years with these things so you have to
just be very very careful because the at
sahara is very very smart
and he could copy with but again i don't
know your background so i'm just being
very sensitive and just discussing the
different
options different options that are here
if you're watching movies because you
have to distract yourself because your
life is so boring
then it's not a good idea because you
have to figure out how you make your
life interesting
you can't escape to movies to make your
life interesting
sometimes a person feels that he wants
to watch something for a specific reason
or something else but if it's just a
general distraction
because life is miserable then it's not
going to help you you have to fix the
issues inside of you these are just
general points that i think are
important for everybody
how does one juggle having keyboard of
the aim and not feeling like a smarter
if keyboard of aim is making you feel
like a smart i don't think it has to do
with kebab
i have to respect my father and mother
how i speak to them
i don't contradict their words i don't
interrupt their words i don't sit in my
father's seat
i stand up when they come in right i
i help that's years of it i help my
father and mother if they need food if
they need drink if they need
uh clothes if they need medicine if they
need health that's what kippa darwin is
hypodalvain doesn't mean that you don't
have a personality
keep it of a doesn't mean your father
can't tell you where to learn today your
father can't tell you who to marry
your father can't tell you which no
sacha darwin right there's a famous
chuva of the altar
you know the truth where is it
you want to go to a certain you want to
learn a certain siddhas
you know i get questions i want to learn
i want to go to this issue
my father says no i want to wear this
hat my father wants this hat i want to
darwin in this show that's not quite
of him give it to me doesn't mean that
your whole life is based on your father
your father has his affairs
you have to respect your father and
mother you have to help your father and
mother and what they need
doesn't mean that they can tell you how
to educate your children let's not keep
with the fame
so i don't know why you would think
hibernate would turn to you
we have such a debt of gratitude to our
parents your parents brought you to the
world your parents raised you even if
they're not perfect
so of course quebec is a tremendous
thing you call your mother you call your
father you say good shabbos
you share with them love you with
them good news i want to tell you a
beautiful
thing my wife's family did and our
family did
the pesach i'm sure a lot of families
did similar things
the first year my mother zozai zund it
was a loan for the seder
my father passed away 15 years ago many
of you knew my father his yard site is
this week huff huffy here my father
passed away coffee or tufts from
samantha
i'll mention my father's name
and his yard said is this this this week
i don't know if i'll even be able to say
all the kardashian for uh
for the yard sights i especially want to
mention him he passed away two days
after lag
my mother was home elaine she couldn't
go to anybody for the seder
she couldn't go to my brothers because
of the quarantine
and none of them could come to her so
she was completely alone for the sake of
the first time
she got matzo she got one she cleaned
the house but there was nobody there
because she couldn't leave the house
because of you know the danger
so she stayed home for the seder and uh
so what we did was this was actually an
idea for my wife's
side of the family because they did it
with my in-laws every grandchild
every grandchild eric pesach wrote a
letter to my mother
a personal letter from the grandchild
and my nephew
delivered it to her house right before
listen them
and he told her that this she has to
open up before the manastama
and when she did her say there my mother
took all these letters she didn't know
what it is
and it said manishtana letters and
before manishtana instead of manastana
she had a letter from every single one
of her grandchildren
it was such a beautiful beautiful thing
to do you know that's what you call
aim that doesn't make you into a smarter
that makes you into a proud child and a
proud grandchild
now if your parents khalilah are abusive
people i don't know
if your parents khalilah have an issue
with abuse
or control they're driving you crazy
then it's a separate situation and then
you have to ask
an expert somebody who's a big expert in
this area and there are experts if you
want i can help you with that
how to create boundaries that's a unique
exception sometimes a person has a
mother or a father
and they have a lot a lot of issues and
it's very very unhealthy
and they're being not they they want
things that are inappropriate and
they're taking you away from your
marriage and your children
then it's a whole other passion then
it's a whole other part then it doesn't
go into keeping the
aim then you have to understand it could
be an issue of a tallest
it could be an issue of keeping people
safe it could be of issue of
remaining sane that's a whole that's a
whole other issue
question how do we explain to one who on
one hand he's struggling so much with
certain indiana for example kedusha
and yet he or she has so much talent
crisis greatness and gifts to bring to
the world
and to give to claudius
one pulls him down and one pulls him up
the time he doubts himself
if you should use his coaches to teach
and give to claw you saw because of his
failings and battles and typhus
he feels maybe he's not worthy maybe
he's not being honest maybe he's living
a double life
he's a two-faced person he really wants
to be great and give to other jews and
bring hashem and paid into their lives
but inside he's struggling not sure if
he's worthy maybe he should just do
something else in life
and not pursue doing kirov and
strengthening
other jews this is a question that comes
from yerushalayim
welcome yerushalayim
[Music]
i could speak about this for six hours
so i'm gonna answer you in one minute
the whole safer hatana was written for
you
this is the story of life the more
talented you are the bigger yet zohara
you have
trust me the deeper you are
the more sensitive you are the more
vulnerable you are
the smarter you are the more struggles
you have josef das
this is not a reason to give up no
even if you fail you stand up you do
children you make amends and you move on
you have a light to give claudius vishal
you should stop this
you have to strengthen it you have to
figure out how to deal with your tivos
figure out a strategy which are the
hours in the day that you're most
vulnerable to your typist
change your schedule maybe you need to
exercise
maybe you need to have somebody in your
life that you could talk to
maybe you have to shift around things to
avoid these pitfalls
but don't look at your tyves as a reason
to say you're living a double-faced life
a double-faced life means if you're
lying to people
if you're a dishonest person if you make
believe you're one thing and you're
really another thing
but if you're a jew who wants to be an
authentic
jew and you want to bring toyota to
yourself and to people
but you have a yatzahara who doesn't you
think people don't know you have yet
zara
that's not called a two-faced person the
fact that you don't share it every shirt
all your typists you think every teacher
is supposed to share all their times
with all their talk with them
you think i share with everybody every
time that i have
there's no here to do that you have to
speak to the right people they have to
speak
it's important to have somebody to speak
to but you don't have to that's not
called a double-faced person that you
don't share every struggle that you have
again you have to figure out how to work
on your struggles if you
fail get up say i'm sorry and fix
if you fail again you get up again but
don't allow the battles
to tell you that you're fake and you're
a nobody and you're nothing
if you have challenges it means that
hashem
has put you in this world as his
ambassador to bring in light into the
darkness
and if you were sent into more darkness
it means that you have more light not
less light
that's how you have to look at it you
just said about power corrupting
you're also very sensitive about the
dark history in russia
how don't you see what's going on in
america right now is the beginning of a
huge power grab and struggle
is there a possibility that the dark
history our grandparents lived through
didn't start in the 1918 pandemic
listen i uh america has its challenges
america has its problems
but i do not agree comparing the united
states of america today
to soviet communist russia i have a i
had a father
who grew up in communist russia my
mother to laggy i grew up in communist
russia
both of my grandparents grew up in
communist russia i know a little bit
about communist russia i grew up in a
home where i
heard a lot and read a lot about
communist russia america has kasrinas
our president is not perfect our
previous president was not perfect
our next president whoever is going to
be is not going to be perfect
don't compare america to communist
russia it's
it's it's it doesn't mean we have no
dangers it doesn't mean we have no
issues
it doesn't mean we don't have to be
careful it doesn't mean we don't have
issues with anti-semitism it doesn't
we don't know exactly the future but you
have to
be thankful to the buenos airlilla about
the country where we're living
as it ever used to call it can
things change do we have to be careful
we always have to be careful
maybe you know the siddha put him off
why mordechai remained in the palace
we don't get drunk not by donald trump
and not by america we don't get drunk by
that
we want malchus based david not
malcolm's donald
times we're living in with all of the
struggles with all of the tragedies
let's understand that it's also very
very powerful
positive experiences that we have seen
the favors that he did to israel and the
jewish people
and i don't worship him trust me i don't
worship him
maybe there will be a lot of mistakes
revealed now about how things were dealt
with i don't know
i'm not a novi li navi an evolution
but i think it's important to be honest
and don't compare it
to stalin and lenin and trotsky
and yejov and beria and khrushchev and
kaganovich
please don't compare don't compare
50 million people were murdered by
stalin 50 million people were murdered
remember that don't compare america to
the
schulten soviet union which created a
gehennim on earth
for tens hundreds of millions of people
it was a
cursed country they destroyed tens of
millions of lives
shot shot shot including grandparents of
people who are sitting here
we know about the communists it was one
of the worst
most evil experiments in human nature in
human history
america has a lot of problems and a lot
of challenges
50 million people were not shot by a
president of the united states of
america
just remember that i don't like this uh
comparing america to the soviet union
please
that it's a curiosity and i'm not drunk
i'm not drunk in america i don't worship
america but i'm thankful
for the freedom that we have here we
could sit like a night of shampai
at home and if i bring together speak
about taylor and hiroshima
that's thankful because in russia we
would be in siberia
tomorrow we'll be in siberia so just
just remember that
i don't mean to be insensitive but just
i'm sharing with you my thoughts
how can we believe mashiach will come
any second if we've been told that for
years and years already
nowadays is it better to get married
very young or wait until you live on
your own first and are more mature
listen
comes nobody else does whoever told you
mashiach was coming at a certain date
was making it up nobody knows even
even the rebbe we know was a big big
sardic never would give a date
this things you have to trust hashem
hashem decides where mashiach comes
nobody else
i heard from the rebbe 20 times with my
own ears
that he cannot understand the reason
he couldn't understand it's overdue colo
it's overdue so we wait for mashiach
when mashiach comes every jew knows only
hashem decides that
that's that but you have to remember
there's mashiach
coming from hashem and there's our
bringing mashiach in our life there's a
gula
that depends on me and you that
we we have to start living a lifestyle
of google that's what i spoke about
before
that depends on us and that
that's not something we were told a
hundred times and it didn't happen
we could start doing that and you will
find hats
the world is ready to live this way and
we have to be the ambassadors of this
light
about marriage generally generally
unless there is a specific reason or
problem it's always better to get
married young
because of a lot of reasons one of the
biggest reasons is when a girl and a boy
are younger it's easier that they grow
up together
it's easy you know i'll give a very
simple example when you have two startup
companies
they just started it's easier to merge
if you take two companies that are
already in business for many many years
it's much harder
for them to make a merge
agent ms is always a good video to watch
okay agent emma says pittsburgh
pittsburgh my friend rabbi coyne
thank you so much for your classes and
especially your questions and answers
thank you thank you for your personal
attention thank you for talking about
screen addiction
yes now i have to log off and go to
sleep yeah don't be an addict but if
you're going to be an addict and you're
going to learn
this is better to be a classes of
tighter
how can one make mitzvahs feel less of a
burden
you have to learn the meaning of the
mitzvah every mitzvah has tremendous
significance
and also before you do a mitzvah think
about
[Music]
you're connecting to infinity
you really believe that the govaldiga
questions sent in by kids and teams
these last few weeks
were written by them or did their
parents write the questions
good question good question my question
is did you write that question or did
your child write that question
davening at home is getting a little
boring what can i do to enhance this
what you could do to enhance this is
every day
sing a negan before davening learn
something inspiring before davenink
if you want you could join a class of
mine we have a lot of classes on the
yeshiva.net
and when you dive in take one paragraph
and focus on it
just meditate on it breathe into it
internalize it sing it that's what i
would do
and do it early try to darwin early
regarding the earlier question about
kebab
intention is when the mother may be a
difficult person to deal with and every
time you get into a conversation
inevitably end up with disrespect on the
child's part okay
so when that happens you say mommy i
love you
and i gotta go that's it mommy i love
you
i'll call you back later cuba dove
doesn't mean you have to be on the phone
for a hour and a half
and start fighting if it gets difficult
say mommy
i really really gotta go don't lie don't
lie say mommy i gotta go now
or mommy let's let's not talk about this
right now i'm busy now i'm stressed
we'll talk about this another time
be a big adult be another you're not a
baby anymore you're not a baby
okay how much longer are we doing this
avi it's already 1109.
okay uh you said the tiny the
questionnaire from your
shalom yeah and for us i think uh we
should also remind everyone
what's the sadness huh we should remind
everyone to dive in
yeah remember that divas
what's the simmer that someone is ready
for
saint paul brazil let's hear it from
brazil
how you know you're ready for shidduchim
listen if you're a mensch if you're a
responsible person
if you know how to treat somebody with
respect and you're ready to be mature
about life you're ready for shidduchim
are you perfectly ready nobody's
perfectly ready if you're a mensch
if you're a responsible person if you
could take responsibility for your life
and be here for another person
emotionally and physically and
financially you're ready for shadow
and the main thing is that you have the
proper values your head is screwed on
straight you want to build a beautiful
home together
the greater a war is one sends a tank
against a tank a plane against a plane
foot soldiers against foot soldiers
similar to chess very good very good if
you have a plane
the enemy is also going to come with a
plane
what do we do to bring mashiach isn't it
decided already
we have to do whatever we can when
exactly hashem decided and hashem could
bring
a day earlier and a moment earlier i'm
not comparing america to russia
you said many times how any country that
violates basic human rights leads to all
kinds of destruction
jews are the scapegoats we are just the
canaries in the mine
please rabbi i dearly love you but don't
you see how the whole constitution was
thrown out of the window
in six hours life is under siege on the
planet
and so is basic human rights and
civilization
i don't see that yet no i'm sorry we
were quarantined for
i think everybody's health reasons i'm
sorry i'm not seeing what you're saying
maybe i'm
i'm naive maybe you could uh
is it true that lag about amer was a
result of mark
defeating the romans the 24 000 jews
were killed
in war i know about the theory i don't
know what to say about it the gomorrah
says they died from a pandemic is it
possible that the pandemic broke
out because of the war with by kaiser
maybe i don't know
i don't know can you recommend english
books
or video series about understanding
davening how
and why certain things came to be
included in the siddha as opposed to
others
i'm not sure i know hebrew books about
it but i don't know
i'm sure you have to research this but
i'm sure there's good books
you could spend six hours on this is it
possible to have a share on this topic
one time or can i email rabbi directly
about it i gave a lot of shirim about
these battles
and if you email me at rabbi y why
yeshiva.net
you could see i could send it to you or
you can go to the website go to the
yeshiva.net and
you could look in the archive human
struggle
you'll see a lot of shirim about this in
psychology and emotions
there's a section psychology and
emotions or tanya you will see a lot of
sheardhim
