Reb Yoel impact on our generation, Rabbi Leibel Shapiro, 5782

thank you very much for coming on you know sure sure no question this is important so I agree right away okay so we have we have uh you know we all know the year was the uh Toys there available for so many years so if you could share with us a little bit about your own experiences okay if you want to start your own when I first got to know him is there's two levels of getting known to know who he is is one thing and then to get to know him so my first fabringen I was actually the first three minutes I was a stalking you gimbal one my parents came from Europe after the war so when you see this before he moved to Cleveland to joined 73 the first time I was by Davis and I remember the tea or as a kid that was a young kid then and I remember to see her back and everyone pointed out this is a very young man with like yellow glasses this and I was listening to them just as a kid and obviously I didn't understand much I just saw that his secretary is not clear and the truth is like this that that's great that's his you know was of being able to be must be known him you have to get used to it the way he spoke so that took a little a few moments so you got into it but then when you found out you could see who you were so that's the first time I got to know who he is and I was in awe of this person then when I came to learn from New York after my bar mitzvah I came in the end of the house I gave him a held of Chicago if I came to learn I went to Bedford and he was the one in the mashpin in Bedford so the first year to say there was a one year you learned by Yeah by this and another year next year you learn to see this three years in shifters it doesn't call them Sifty they call it or whatever they existed so one year whatever this one year back so the first attack I learned about my list but I got closer to review I also the next year I learned a little bit about it but I used to go into the games classes how did they get close because to say there used to be that 15 year old boys and that was for everybody so I was there and I used to sometimes write down the secrets of the young kid like that and vermeila made our relationship closer and then I started even in the middle of the second year going into his share of students and we got to here here issued him and I got like I wouldn't use the word friendly because it was this type of thing but that's what he had his ashfoya was so great then and when he was a Bedford then when he really put in a lot a lot of work let's face the use of our brain by especially able to practice and again we were 13 14 15 year old kids and that had a very great so that's when we got close and basically if I want to use these words I don't know if there's proper way to describe it he molded us arkita actually was a very good keeper that even the boys were young boys but he's a very good kid and basically we were all tailing for it and he molded us into whatever the light became boxing later and the light it's a lot thanks to him now I have to say the honest truth his her story was not mainly focused on every yogic like so much speed and have they have a special relationship with this buffhead with this bucket and they talked to him for hours and this is discussions [Music] that if I bring a lot about the bottle to the rabbit and remember they used to remember FIFA playing they cried with the marathons are typewriter just like a typewriter types so the typewriter writes a singer types of mind but I got some mind it came for the typewriter typewriters he was basically talking about himself because he was the craziness he was but the people that you have to and that that I got in the cup and what sitting in the difference with cities and not learning to see this and those who are not charged to this that came from him a lot that's as far as his hash boy is concerned on the book and that brought doesn't mean that he didn't speak there were times and he did speak I remember myself I had a long conversation with him once actually this was already after we went came to 770 because we came to 770 I became 16 years old when I learned as I'm 70. number I came 15 and a half and one of the things he spoke to me then was a lot was it again he did not stress so much in them even okay he says that he once saw and he didn't realize that they're saying to do and you learned so he says he looked at the bucket of the book I was very embarrassed what was he embarrassed to miss gdusha but he says that's what I'm talking about didn't even have to say to get up so I mean that was I remember a long conversation with them besides smaller conversation things but the main thing was not so much the hidim but the group if I bring with the group that's as far as Boston actually remember he told me that you see this after he got married told them he should speak to it on holiday they should give him a job so they gave him the job in Bedford for the young young 14 15 year old kids so I mean next year when he went to see this he never asked him what he gave what I said to you last year so he said yeah they gave me a job in Bedford English your foreign Ty and we were with him the whole time foreign with no question about it but we already worked together so it was a little bit awkward to come get my sphere it doesn't matter any remember remember my impression I got from him that this time he really really spoke about to me like I must be like a mother chemistry which you imagine that was his pushes and Ikea push was he was able to do which is something that silver they have to talk about about his house in being mastered Anonymous series that I mean there's no tradition when I'm saying everyone knows that is until you got used to it but afterwards he was able to be a few distortment a reckling my fellows it was so clear to you so clear he was able he had both no some people have a rush in half shot that we could relate to I think he had both miles I don't know maybe other people feel differently he was able to be much and bring it over and then until to demolish it that when you left you're left with you understood even though we're talking about these synonymous citizens he had that that push he had that chaos according that's already the second subject of his life this is we're talking about part of life then there's a second part which is the president I mean to go ahead and he um the wheels this whole way of teaching things you're looking at things one of the things that was his thing many many times that's called a theme if you want to use the gosh was to sort of coupling the Emma Skype for the May machine the question the reality the m is Kite from Taylor on the MS guides from from the states that was his stress many times he spoke a lot and when he was mastered it it became very clear because he kept on top me the hand Manish I mean the way he explained what you remind me the story there's a story once it was Friday and those in Russia it was the middle of winter you could have might have three o'clock in the afternoon or four o'clock already so one Friday night this is given five o'clock so he went to sleep by 11 o'clock he got up already that he stayed up like that until the morning came the morning people started coming to shoot already and he opened his eyes and he said over it took him a while building dimensions that's that's the way you talk about him remember so he used to live in Cleveland so he always he had a pet Market my growth so once I remember it was from there was no management there he traveled at the middle of the winter and Cleveland was very freezing in such a way that I remember every kid I could understand people are and one guy was snowing he couldn't find his boots that he brought someone else turns around when there's other people incested because foreign I'll say it in a second but I said I spoke by isolation in Borough Park so I mentioned it and I said stomach is going to muscle so one of the people there said no no I heard it from him privately he said it actually happened to him what was the story he was said he was once standing by a bus stop waiting for the bus waiting or waiting waiting people gathered the bus isn't coming the bus isn't coming so he turns around to another age foreign and all the house bought us in it then you go into the dictionary of it but there was one goal here to come out the distance that's that's now does everyone think I'm sure there'll be other people that could say they took other nakodas for him this is the way I am I I saw him say hello not so much inside or or say hello in the reality of things and just understanding the thing as it is um once he told me sitting wise I bring in not that I was wearing them not so long ago so it's 10 years ago there was a story printed a little story that there was a guy who used to rent I rented from from some from apartments and in the pain that I say sand Ruble I remember 10 Ruble a year once he couldn't go he was not feeling well so his son went instead he's making the deal and the Pirates he said you know what if you take it for five years you said that each year containerable or something like that I'll give you 40 ruble for the safest of terrible give me a capillary I had the five years so it's a good deal he came back and he told his father he told his father that I said I said ceremony so I did this I said what you wasted money so you just wasted so one year after the other years what did you do it you wasted 30 Ruby wasted syrup yeah tells me a Witnesses fall from the mindset from them drugs Academy has been pushes for living guilt yeah it was real Porsche you said the time that was not don't you believe in the share the time that well he made me lose money because timid must feel that was as our took me he gave to the Everest guys it fits to your gosh Mystic life same thing for potatoes that he spoke many times even a little kid that ever trained us a little kid base the moment you hear somebody sick you say oh you have checking but I've cooked it to make it all real and he was able to be much better in such a way that other hobbling that's that's my way because veterans you don't understand the decisions more you could say the Germans more about the animals even though his main thing was her Scholars main thing I mean thank you for the understanding the Seiko behind it but it's also the way to explain it to it express it but yeah but the bottom line was to end the sky that what this is now moving to the other um [Music] well he said to me clearly I think maybe he decided once under the Victoria I don't know that after when he came here he was here a while I don't know a few weeks a few months was planning to go back and yes whatever told him and he told you he allowed you to come so assuming you belong here he told me that he saw in the beginning and we saw that there's something special the lotion that used to me was this is and he understood what that rabbit is so to him in the beginning it took time to the hobbling and he said you know who pushed who got it to me what I meant by my mentally told him she doesn't only knows the yahras that the street they had to deliver would be different so he got him to he was this was a few weeks a few months after he came already in other words his discussion is because a lot of times I wonder you know if you have to sit and they became a Christian the second one was nostalgic became a question I push can't understand it unless it's supposed to kill the superficial hello that takes time so I can't understand Allah to get that so text and take it he was he once told me that that attention also once I spoke to privately many hours that day when he said that he also says it's not simple to say these guys forget it's hard to see a person should should become a kosher either way if you're bam is a makushi so he says and it took him time doesn't take long something is two years three years I don't know but but he it's rocket League band the MS cat and then he became completely Pusher and he as much as he knew that he is the phaser and soft or soft the website that we have is all thanks to him even though not everything he wrote a lot of things written by others he's the market in other words and everything but he's just definitely the market he knew that but he really felt throughout all that he really felt that this is not this is also because of development I remember one of the rabbits to get home to drink a cup of wine and he said give us everything my brothers but uh it was not only his recording but also his sister that I think by him if you're talking about that part I don't think and again I'm not going to judge that he had a photographic memory I don't think so okay I mean there's no question about it but not the main thing by him was it's ever spoke it's very sometimes hard because the middle is to see that's how he remembers I could see him he remembered it because it takes his given the continents according it doesn't work but he was all this was his with his Beetle to the river he was famous you would imagine a person like him put such I don't know which better words he's such a position would have a feel a certain specialty like a base closeness excuse specialty yeah so like he has it so whatever he could go over sometimes more than others nothing but him and he had he felt that he had a school to write the circus and he once told me privately the truth is I don't know if I ever told this to anybody I think it's the first time I'm saying it and he told me when he used to he wrote the first nine values of the decisions later what they ever wanted him to work on saferair came with all kinds of other Horizon that he had and other people started so he he said to me once Faithfully felt bad that he couldn't do it but the main thing he says it feels bad is that the the this is a helic discussions and and here there's a certain minimizing what it was before because that party didn't have and that's what bothers him very much remember I was working now water him down Kingston Avenue I want to tell you this is it's not because this thing is this is cautious that was take another circles a person like that besides his personality being the president would be Shady in the mouth I sit but he did and the rabbit did not did not like push it either never did not want to take away his people because they never could ask there were times that everyone spoke things that was not something about him something that he said there he did and that was not happy to do why could there wouldn't do it by somebody else because he was a Kayla for this because his Beetle was it was completely and that's what he instilled a lot of the ways of looking at the river and things like that what it is and this comes from him and that is not his institution he understood and a lot of things that we have is because he was able to be mastering it I mean you say this idea that that I don't even know everyone shared and all my students yeah and it's all called because the way he was able to be mastered he was able to and then the devil said they were masking maintaining I mean part of the story is known and part of the story he doesn't want me to tell he told it to me himself he tells me like this it's the famous story when they gave the kind of Titus that never spoke once about the cover tied if you cross the cover tight you have to have your own shoes so King koshin of days I think somebody stayed in this house sure this was that time Sunday and the guy came from Japan and then it turned out every school should be them anyway the next day they asked that ever and the whole idea was there but that's not the point I'm trying to make so then when they went into the revenue called them in the revolution so that's whatever they said yeah obviously you got to keep your own shoes so he tells this is the way he told me some people told him that he heard him differently I heard it from himself and when I wanted the ones by sitting by a fabrina trying to tell it he says I didn't say it later I told it so he tells me like this he has that advantage that time if the person who keeps his own shoes which is not Sivan does he say s so because now you don't say it if you came on him he didn't say it so this guy doesn't he says to me that he has that ever the represent one answer he saw the devil yes the second time episode finally he almost like pressured and did have the answer that he shouldn't say okay then he tells me he bothered him for a long time that he could be awful pressured that ever to give an answer that ever didn't want how in the world could I do that but miss anger found that I have a right to justify it for him so he shouldn't feel so bad because after all I write decisions so I write that this will come out and I'll have to be right so it's good that I asked to find out no he doesn't know why but this came into his mind this problem that how could he do such a thing and then it's my signature he was thinking to himself before maybe because I write decisions as he's thinking someone get the markup yeah foreign so he says Cliff the devil was ready and gave him the answer so he didn't want to tell me but but they never used that loss and he told me for daily there's another time he told me that happens something like this the river was going on by Acoustics I think pushing to push the representative and he was amongst them and took specific data and push the toward the bill to give a Cush and the rabbit and the bosses so the level said no excited so whatever did some did say this so he was but nevertheless whatever didn't behave to him like the same kind of him a lot that's not what he needed he was literally getting completely remember when I ever came out of Miss honey that here first year made a whole bit tumal about it he went every day Sunday can't remember I went to him and I listened right into places like a cautious a person so yeah giving and teaching and as much as he could um again and again and again he never got tired of it and even if he said the same number and the same viewing is it loud from him salted together thank you very much um he brought the devastated to the world and does that message because he went on the boat delivered to throw huge fat igue together Sunday went on the boat he didn't even know about it and he came managed directly to the river he the truth is I'm not so sure that in the days before we had such a crazy I'm not sure sorry I don't know no one comes to his head so many hours you know hours and hours came out Thursday and Friday you know what happened was Thursday Thursday night was a fabrina Friday night it was of Iranian how many hours is it 15 hours I don't know there's no hazard in between if you couldn't there was no time for hazard so what we used to do I used to stand next to him in my time later I don't know my time is the next thing by acoustas so quietly he used to he's the fathers in the goodness so we should but like this to remember later all these hours and know which one was by this fabrina what was by this fabric top of everything because I I know I must some of them [Music] say this like you know hey he didn't write many of those because earlier zero then he stopped but there's also anyway yeah we owe him a lot yeah yeah all right thank you very much helpful both of you thanks
