and Then followed by RAB goas and um I think one quick message that that that I thought of for for tonight is that um is is that um relating to miam bad is that um I heard I heard a story from RAB rabi man he said he said that he was at the SCH conference what's that it's a conference of all the the kabad rabbis in of the entire world they all they all have a a shabbaton in Brooklyn so he was at the scham conference and there's hundreds of rabbis thousands of rabbis there and he said at at this dinner what happened one of the they they called to the stage one kabad Rabbi and what he said he said he said right now I'm my 50s in my 60s 30 years ago I was there in my 20s and the re the bab Reby sent me out to some place in the middle of nowhere and and and and and it wasn't going so well I was there for a few months my wife unfortunately she was she she was sick I wasn't doing so much kir I wasn't raising a lot of Saka so I sent a letter after a few months to the rebba and they said can you I want you to release me from Myas from my from from sending me cuz it's not I'm I'm not going well so what did the What did the what did the rabba send him back a letter he said he said don't ask the rabba to release you from your schas your schas is your mission your mission is why you're here ask the rabba to to to release you from your problems your wife you should be successful in doing K but don't ask the rebba to release you from your Rel ask the rebba to release you from your problem so you can fulfill your your your your your mission and your purpose and I think Mariam bad of course was such a tremendous person dedicated to the community and kazak and the feder and so many amazing um organizations institutions and was so dedicated to our family and the community and of course we should take that message to heart and we shouldn't ask Hashem to release to release us from our mission we should we should ask Hashem to release us from our challenges from our problems so that we can fulfill our mission and um and of of course um tonight as well as for for for for years to come throughout the weeks coming forward we should we should do of course having in mind and of course um we have um a man who needs no introduction a rabbi who literally inspires thousands of people around the world through living at MAA and the daily daily It's amazing And we thank the rabbi for joining us everyone please rise for thank you Rabbi thank you for inviting me to try and give on this first y site of we have aah at hand when we enter this month we're supposed to be happy and people ask how could we be happy when we're going through troubles when young people are passing away how do we have happiness at these times the answer is if we take the lessons of this month of puim of PES and we strengthen oura and Hashem could bring happiness under all circumstances and hashem's lovingness and hashem's control and we have to strengthen our in order to have true I once read a story there was an a who was going through terrible times and he called his Rabbi to pour out his heart trying to getuk and this a was walking aimlessly in the streets of yush very late at night as he was pouring out his heart to his Rabbi and the rabbi was listening patiently as the Clock Was approaching 2: a.m. all of a sudden the a sees a little boy looked like he was 3 years old walking by himself in the middle of the night he was about to call for help and then he saw 10 seconds later the boy's parents turned the corner he said afterward that scene gave him so much he felt like Hashem sent him a direct message the message was sometimes we think we're alone without problems in this world like that little threeyear old boy but little do we know our father is right behind us watching over us and helping us when never alone Hashem is always with us and Hashem is always there to give us the that we need it says famously in t it says Rashi brings why is the death of connected to the par and Rashi says from kazal to teach us just like the gave us Kap so toim brings kapar so I once heard a question we could have learned this lesson by many sikim why specifically mam why is Mam's death in fact that year MOS also passed away Aon passed away why is Mam's death the lesson that the death of a sadik brings kapar it was very difficult for the people to understand why M died at that time it says moson passed away because they couldn't go into the land they were involved in the M but what did mam do wrong why did mam pass away furthermore it says that over the 40 years the men had to pass away in the desert because of the sin of the but the women did not the women were all spared that means all the women were going in to the land of Israel where was their leader mam going where was mam one of the reasons par brings kapar is because we don't understand it there's so many laws that makes no sense but when we say we trust you we have no idea how it makes sense but we know you know everything and we trust you that's what brings kapar when the Jewish people heard mam die and they said where's our leader how come she's not going into Ed nobody knew she didn't do anything wrong it was the acceptance of Mam's death that brought them the real kapar when a sadik passes away and we have no explanation a sad passes away there's no explanation she was the righteous the most righteous person but when we say Hashem we don't understand but we trust you that brings kapar to the people and it even helps the people who have passed on it helps the sadim the sadim want us to be happy they want us to accept and move forward sometimes Leno we visit the mner we say the words or and we say it in plural and the question is asked if there's only one person sitting why do we say it in plural and the answer I once heard is that the Nish of the one who passed away is also there and he's saying to us why are you crying I'm happy there's nothing better for me now so we have to console we have to console him cuz he feels bad that we're crying when a passes away it's the greatest sh they don't miss anything in this world sometimes we say yeah but they passed away so young what if they were here longer they could have done more tell us that it doesn't matter how long a person lives as long as they do their job they're the same as if they lived 120 years like it says mosenu lived a full life 120 years he led the Jewish people in the midbar for 40 years brought down the Tor to is and shimu passed away after just 52 he also served the people carried their burdens and theim says that Moshe and shimu were equals and from here the rabbis learn it doesn't matter how long a person's here as long as they do their job and it's the biggest better than better than is to accept theem and to say Hashem I trust you I know you know what you're doing and we're going to move on Happily trusting in your one of our main jobs in this world is to recognize hashem's involvement in this world we have a mitvah before puim we always have to read theal we have to remember what Amal did when we left Bim how he attacked us I was thinking I'm sure the questions asked why specifically do we have to remember Amal why don't we have a Mitzvah to remember what the did to us in terrible atrocities they did putting babies in bricks why don't we arouse hatred for them perhaps the answer is Amal wasn't just coming against us Amal was coming against Hashem Amal was saying oh you guys left Egypt you think it was miraculous you're nobody there was no God that helped you you got out but You're Nobody Hashem is not with you and they came it was a war against Hashem and that's whyem says it's hashem's war against the way we fight Amal is with the story of puim you think hashem's not in the world you think Hashem is not with us the the m St it says this the S it's the end of all the Miracles that we celebrate it is the miracle that speaks the most to us because since Hashem did open Miracles now the way he relates to us is hidden in nature and it is our job and Mission to discover him to see him in every second of the day the brings introducing the migil and there's a pasuk there that talks about glorifying the name of Hashem and it says that's referring to the migil and the M asks but in the migil hashem's name isn't even mentioned how we glorifying his name if his name's not even in there the answer is when hashem's name is somewhere we say Okay Hashem did that Hashem did that when hashem's name is not there we put Hashem in every every word of the migil the greatest Praise of Hashem is when he's hidden and we say no that was you Hashem that was you I know that was you every story that we say over it's a regular story but when you throw in the name of Hashem it becomes aess it becomes amazing this is what the Mah teaches us how to relate to our own lives how to find Hashem how to feel Hashem let us just take one example when the decree was made against the Jewish people went out into the street he's screaming in pain seeing that the am Hashem was in Jeopardy of being annihilated the day he hears of it estad what's going on why is M screaming he tells estad you have to go in immediately to the king you're the only one who could save us right now and if you don't save us you're going to perish with your father the Jewish people will always continue what does it mean you and your father are going to perish who's her father she came from the house of sh sha left a he left Amal alive Hashem he says giving you a chance now to make atonement you have to go and eradicate hamal this is your chance EST says to fast for three days and then she goes in Caesar stretches out the scepter as we know and he says EST whatever you want the he the kingdom I'll give you instead says all I want is for you and Hamman to come tomorrow to come to the party that I'm going to make for you tonight Hamman hears he's invited to the party just him the king and instead he goes to this party he comes out on cloud nine wow I'm the only one he walks out so happy and then he sees who's not bowing to him who doesn't give him any recognition whatsoever and he's burning Med why didn't he just kill him M had a high position in the palace he's in the sh he was AET he couldn't kill him without permission from a and he's burning with anger and he comes home and he can't he can't live with himself he calls together all his friends and his wife and he tells them about how nothing is worth it when he sees morai and zes calls out in front of everybody enough with him already why don't you just build a tree and hang him get rid of him once and for all Hamman hears this his spirits get lifted up I could do that I could go to aash he'll listen to me we could kill him immediately he goes out and builds the Gallows that minute he finishes building them it's almost the morning I can't go to sleep I can't wait to go to aash to kill M and he starts making his way towards the palace he's going to go at Sunrise to the palace and what did Hashem do minutes before wakes up he can't sleep normally he has people that come sing him lullab put him back to sleep this time he says no I don't want any of that I need to read where's the pulls out his diary is there anybody that I saved me that I never helped they read to pay yeah M the Jew 5 years ago when Big T and Tes tried to kill you he discovered the plot and he saved your life five years ago says what I never rewarded him immediately he calls for his advisers right now I have to think of something they go into the courtyard to get the advisors and Haman is there waiting say haman's here Hamman now send him in what does he want Hamman at the Split Second he's coming to hang that's when Hashem puts in the brain of a reward this is how it all turned around look at the Precision of hasem from second to second but it didn't start at this moment you had to go 5 years back when big bigan and Tes were plotting why are they talking in front of M because no one in the world knows this language but Mor studied 70 languages so you have to go back in time more where Hashem made it that M would know this language and hasem had to put in the so he could hear it and it goes back even further what is EST doing in the palace to say over this information in the name of morai estad was chosen out of the entire world from every woman in the world was chosen to be the queen and how did EST get there because vashi what happened with vashi she didn't want to come out one time he kills her it doesn't make any sense I saw something amazing from the the gar says when Vash defied the words of aash to come at that moment Hashem struck her with with so she wouldn't come said what should I do what should I do with her he asked the Jews he asked the they didn't want to get involved cuz they knew if he kills her from them he's going to take revenge later so he called his advisers the gar says his seven advisers to decide what to do every one of their names sounded like something that had to do with the mikash sounds like the word sh which refers to the Daily offerings of the bet mikdash when he started giving advice it aroused an angel in shamayim to say Hashem if you don't kill Vash now what's going to be with the sh you're going to miss out on all the from your precious children you have to get rid of her to pave the way for EST sounds like two turtle doves that were also brought as the angel said Hashem you're going to miss the two turtle doves that are brought for if you don't get rid of her means the every was brought on the M you're going to miss the T is the T Stone on the breastplate of theen who worked in the bet mikash medis is the stirring of the blood of the bird offerings m is the stirring of the oil of the flower offerings and alludes to the preparation of the shulhan with the 12 loaves of bread and for every one of these things the angels and shamayim said AEM who's going to continue doing this for you if your nation perishes and it was because of those advocating angels that the Seal of Vash for death was decreed says theam s could you imagine the over here this means that these seven in this room Hashem knew about from decades before and he put into the brains of every one of their parents to name those advisor names that sounded like kban he's thinking decades in advance about how he's going to save his children how these people are all going to be in the room I have to give them names of kban look how far back has goes and back and back and back and this is how we have to view our lives every moment of life is drenched with has why was I here everyone could go back in their own lives and think about what am I doing here how' I end up with this job how' I end up with that wife how do I end up with this with that everyone's Life's a story and you could sit here for hours telling your story and people wow I can't believe it how you meet her how you have this how you this how' you end up here it's all Hashem leading a person to the path they need to be on to do their purpose in this world and it is up to us to have our eyes open all the time and say that's Yem that's Yem we pray three times a day and we constantly are repeating the same requests someone needs par please give me someone needs please I need a for my daughter I need a and we ask and ask and ask and the question is asked why do we have to keep repeating ourselves why don't we just ask once when it comes to in the physical world we're not supposed to overdo it why do we keep asking and asking Hashem hurt us we should say okay at the right time I'll give it to you the writes in his he says the purpose of prayer is not to get you what you need he said the purpose of prayer is for you to realize that the only one who could give you what you need is if you keep asking hasem I know only you could give it to me if you keep asking and thinking and asking and thinking then maybe maybe maybe you'll come to that where you say forget everybody else there's nobody else Hashem I don't need anyone else all I need is you when you have that IMA you how many stories we hear when people say I finally believed that it was Hashem and then the gates of Yeshua opened it's not a siga if the whole purpose of praying is for you to come to that realization that's why you have the need so once you get it you don't need the need anymore then all of a sudden Yeshua comes but you have to get there you have to fully believe it's not the job it's not the medicine it's not the doctor it's only Hashem it says we read in the man doesn't live on bread he lives on the words that come out of hashem's mouth what does that mean the IB Ezra writes you may think that we live because of the bread that we eat the bread is a source of dietary fiber it helps keep the digestive system healthy helps control blood sugar and cholesterol levels comes the PUK and says I gave you man for 40 years man had none of that you know why you live cuz I say that you live there's no other reason the food doesn't give you life I give you life the medication doesn't heal you I heal you if you take medication and you believe it's Hashem ah now you got the point you reached the you don't need it anymore you believe that it's me someone once wrote a letter about the difficulties she was going through with her daughter shim she said I was involved in with my daughter with on with shim for years she's such a good girl she has good always looking to help others but we never got any suitable suggestions the full the few people who were suggested were not what we were looking for we didn't care about money or Prestige all we wanted was a good boy with trying to get closer to Hashem how could I compromise on spirituality we tried every no movement I'll admit it and not be ashamed I came to a moment of desperation I felt trapped on all four sides first I was angry at the sh and then I was angry with everybody why is nobody helping my daughter she's such a good girl this was the situation until one summer in the beginning of elul I caught myself and I said why are you wasting time with the people who can't help you anyway there's only one Shan and you're not putting enough effort with him that El I decided I'm not calling one more shadan anymore I'm going only to hasem everybody knows us we didn't enough she said every time she had an urge to call a she would Channel it towards heartfelt T she said and then a few months later a the boy we were waiting for all these years came in a way that we could never have dreamed of he was the perfect shid for my daughter that only Hashem could bring she said I can't I'm not a I'm not a I'm not a ni but it seems like it was that realization finally that opened the door to my salvation it is true we don't always get answered when we pray and it's hard and sometimes we think we havea and we weren't answered there are other reasons why some someone will not be answered in ail sah immanu prayed for decades for a baby imagine sah she's 30 40 50 talking to Hashem she was so holy no answer where's Hashem do you know what made Sarah so great she kept praying and praying and connecting and connecting she was destined to be the the mother of Cl that doesn't come easy it was only after years and years of tiil Lord and growth where sah was finally able to be one of the imah the first of the imah and she finally had a child at the age of 90 it's hard when we're not answered but we have to trust Hashem we're growing from them we're becoming great never close the book and say I can't anymore he's not listening to me oh he's listening every tiil is making you grow you're becoming greater and greater and greater sometimes we just can't fathom we can't understand somebody once told me a story he said his grandfather whose name was mosim lived in the 1920s in Yugoslavia he ran a successful business there he said one day his friend who also had a successful business asked him to co-sign on a loan for him he was asking for a lot of money and the bank wouldn't give it to him he needed a co-signer so mosim said of course you're my best friend I'll help you and the friend's business ended up turning sour and he couldn't pay back the loan and the bank went after M he couldn't pay back the loan and they had to take away his entire business MOS was left there with no source of parasa he tried to find new things but he couldn't and finally he picked up and moved his family to America and started a new business there in America he was very successful by the time he passed away he had 109 Grand children each one of them each one of them outstanding in their ways and helping CL Isel it turned out that the town he lived in in Yugoslavia was totally wiped out in the Holocaust and by moving to America his life was spared I told the man telling me this story that's a great story I've heard dozens like this but thank you he said no no no no I'm not finished and when he said this next line I said wow that's the greatest story I ever heard he said could you imagine my grandfather when the bank called up and told him we're taking your business he must have cried and begged to Hashem please Hashem don't take away my business please I did a for my friend I co-signed on his loan let that be a that I should keep the business have a family to support please have mercy on me I give so much s how could this happen to me ashem all of his crying and begging and pleading and the bank took it away nothing he nothing he prayed was able to save him but you know what Hashem was saying you're worried about your business here I'm worried about your 109 grandchildren and all the generations that are going to come out of you don't worry about this business I'm going to give you more money than you can imagine to support you sometimes when not answered an a because Hashem is planning a much greater future for us that we can never even dream of there's so many reasons why we think our T Lord are not being answered our job is to say I trust you Hashem I'm going to keep coming back I know you want me to I'm never going to stop a great Rabbi once said he was praying for something for seven and a half years and nothing moved he said he went to ask rim rim Kanki zal what should I do I'm daving for 7 and A2 years of said there's no end s and a half years 15 years 20 years who cares how long keep going back Pray Again pray again you're growing you're becoming a different person it's hard when we're going through troubles difficulties we have to know this world is the world of toil I once heard a story there were two people who made a deal happens whoever dies first should come back and tell the other one about the Judgment in shamayim one of them passed on he came back and he said I'm not allowed to tell you I could reveal one thing remember we went together to grind our own flour to bake mats we were transporting the flower and all of a sudden it got cloudy it looked like it was going to be a downpour and our hearts were pounding with fear if the flower gets wet all of our hours and hours of work would be for not because it would become 90 seconds later the clouds started dispersing and it never rained I could tell you those 90 seconds that we experienced fear went on the positive side of the scale of judgment every single second was worth so much in shamay there are people who have gone through pain for days weeks months and even years imagine what that is going to be worth in shamayim if the person is able to stay faithful to Hashem and continue serving him amid the pain it makes every minute of his life infinitely greater one minute of a when someone's in pain is worth hundreds of times more when life is easy we don't ask for pain we don't want it we're scared we're not going to pass the test but if it's happening if someone is going through troubling times you have to know every minute of your avod is priceless don't lose the opportunity there's going to come a day it says on that final day when hashem's going to reveal himself and show how he was behind every single thing that ever happened and we're going to say oh wow that's what you were doing hasem that's what you were doing wow I can't believe the and the love you were showing me I thought you were hurting me I'm so sorry that I doubted you we don't want to say that we want to say I knew it Hashem I always knew you were with me yes I knew you were having mercy and that and I knew you were having here and I knew and I knew and then you'll be lifted up now is still in the darkness to find the light in the darkness is to find that light of emuna the light of trusting Hashem Hashem is so proud of us every time we have another thought ofuna another area of growth I told over a story I'll conclude that I said over this past year somebody told me amazing he said him and his wife were waiting for children and finally they got the news his wife's expect expecting they were so excited and then all of a sudden the fifth month she had a miscarriage they were devastated he said on she my wife came back it was a Thursday I called up my Ros K immediately I told him what happened the Ros K told me he said look you need to be with your wife now I want you to take the next week off of Kel don't come back you need to be with her we went through Friday Shabbat Sunday morning my wife asked me why are you home how come you're not going to learn he said ah I want to I want to I want to hang out with you you know we went through a tough time she says no no no I want you to learn really go learn you have we're not doing the DNC until Thursday go learn you sure yes he said I walked out the door and I'm thinking of the midash that says when the Jewish people dance with the Torah T even though they're going through so many problems Hashem calls the angels and he says look at my precious children how beloved they are they forget about their own sorrows and they take Delight with me I said what wow what they must be saying about my wife in shamayim now she's forgetting about her own problems and sending me to learn he went to learn that day the r says what are you doing here he says my wife wants me your wife wants okay he comes home for lunch he goes back the next day Monday lunchtime his nephew calls him or his cousin he says I'm playing tonight can I borrow your violin mine is not working so well he say sure come over he comes over to get his violin and he says you mind if I practice to see if it works sure he starts playing a song on the violin this mid became a song he starts singing k k k he says why why are you singing that song he says I like that song song do you know what's going I have no idea he said I can't believe it Hashem you're here you're with us you are saying about us he says you know how much I got from that we don't always get that pad on the back we don't always get that recognition from Hashem but it's there he's with us he's watching he wants us to find him he wants us to say hasem I believe this is from you I'm going to move on Happily I'm going to continue I'm going to continue growing if we take this message and we carry it with us wherever we go we'll be happy not only in adad we'll Cy we'll car we take Take Along this happiness wherever we go and we'll be happy until the mashia amen thank you very much for the powerful remarks next speaker is Rob goas and of course at the end of the event we're going to be giving out the Tor time daily those books are on stay to the end and um needs no introduction has spoken here so many times throughout the years and he's a renowned speaker and author and RV and everyone please rise for r [Music] good evening good evening it is a great to see everybody this evening especially a few days before puim we have a unbelievable Z tonight to talk about those things that an individual sometimes loses sight of what happens in our world when it's a little bit dark when things are not going exactly like I want how to find the light how to be able to see the good how to have AEM help us to climb out to see better times I'd like to start uh just with a very small idea about puim everyone knows that ham was told by AOS that he's got to go and he's got to find Hamman because Hamman he's going to lead through through the streets and he's going to give him Honor on the horse and Haman he's going to have to be the barber the bath house attendant he's going to it changed around he's going to have to lead him through the streets so ham doesn't know where you find him where's he at where where do you get the this guy morai so they told him go to B midash go to bet Gabriel that's where you're going to find him so he goes he's in there looking the B midash and he sees that Mor is giving he's giving a general she to the guys in the B mid hamon does not know what's going on he stands at the side he waits he's waiting for the end of the Shure to find out what's going on here he hears Aramaic he hears some Hebrew he doesn't know what's going on the sh completes it finishes he calls over one of the B one of the the students says come over here B I gotta ask you a question Haman says what was he saying what was he teaching oh H you know what he's teaching K the mikash when they used to take that little bit from the OM from the Min and they would gather it like this very complex they would take a little bit from the grain hold it in their hand and then flip it and that little bit all types of H could not wrap his head around why you need to know any of this they said H because there's going to be a bet mikash the temple is going to be rebuilt and we will have to know how to do the we're going to have to know how to serve hem and that is one of the that we're going to have to know ham is baffled he thought what is going on over here and he said the following you read it time and time again go into it deep and deep and deep there it says Hamman got so upset he said your little comates that little bit that's on the end of your fingers that you take out from the from the meal offering that little bit is already it has already ruined thousands and thousands of silver pieces that I paid to be where I'm at today that's what he said that little bit of grain was Mel it aned all the thousands of silver pieces that he gave all theim ask a question teach me why did he get so blown out of shape about the kamit about the future service in the BET mikdash what was so big about that everybody there are many in the there are many things all different things that are so complicated that could have been taught what was so special about K taking that little bit for theik you got to hear this unbelievable R galinsky said Hamman thought what was the Sher going to be in already the signs were up in the street going to kill all the Jews the streets were all covered with the signs Jews are finished gone history they all ran in order to say that the Jews are going to be killed Haman thought you know what the Sher is going to be in you know what the class is going to be in in kazak it's going to be in Kem how a person has to give up their life forem it's going to be in the not to serve Idols it's going to be maybe about Haba because in a few minutes they're all going to be killed so learn about the next world as soon as that student told him that Yesa said we are thinking about the B mikdash that destroyed Hamman they're not afraid they couldn't care care less about what we say they don't care about the Gaz they don't care about any of this evil they're thinking in the future we don't live in the present we live in the future what right now is happening does not bother us we're already looking for the future greatness of the bet mikdash that hon could not take once he saw that we are Jews that live with hope we are Jews that live with a dream we are Jews that see the the future we are Jews that never give up we are Jews that will always be here cuz Hashem promises us that we will be here forever once he saw that Hamman said I am done I am finished and this is something it is so special that a person should take a look at this what happen and say never ever is there going to be anything that a person can get so scared about never can a person be so challenged that they face the future with fear they're upset as interesting thing I live next door in Brooklyn I didn't make it to Queens yet they didn't let me in but over in Brooklyn I live next door to a very fine person is unbelievable guy unbelievable he happens to be from the Persian community so something was facing him that was terrible something was facing him a challenge a lot of people they get a challenge I don't want to say what they get very upset a lot of people get a challenge they're finished they get I don't want to say but depressed over it they throw in the towel they say forget about it doesn't matter doesn't matter uh marriage uh children whatever it is a lot of people they they just throw in the towel they give upes I'm done even there are those that think about doing things that I don't want to say shows that a person gave up on life never ever so he said I came to knock on your door I came to knock on your door it was a of Shabbat I needed an answer Reby you were home you were not home I need an answer I had to know one way or other life or death you weren't home what should I do he didn't know Friday night he went to sleep now I saw him Mo Shabbat Saturday night I came back from Lakewood he runs with tears in his eyes tears in his eyes he talks to me Reby and he told me he came Friday and I wasn't home I went to sleep Friday night you came to me in a dream you told me I should do this and this and this and I had my answer I was caling Rua because I knew what to do but the strange thing is you spoke to me in fary Persian perfect Persian he fell on my shoulder and he cried I just give it to you exactly like he told me this ye this Jew has such a he's got such faith in theim I believe whatever happened on Friday night was because of his great amuna a person never ever gives up on anything to find theight in anything that goes on Hashem or apostle Navi Hashem is my light even in the darkest places in the entire world Hashem comes to shine hasem said I'm going to come I'm going to come to you you wait you wait for the light you wait for the way you wait for me to show you and I will do it individuals sometimes they don't realize they say it's too dark uh it is utterly impossible that Hashem could come in this situation I want you to know in the worst of worst situations Hashem appears all of a sudden Hashem appears to help us that's part of the reason bear with me for just one moment puim puim is an interesting holiday puim will be the only holiday that that in the future we will always have puim all the other y to we will not have but puim the days of puim will be here forever we will always get get together we will always have a special time you and I and all of CLA Israel Branch together for the great day of puim why why puim why not yum kipur why not any of the other great days there a lot of great days on our calendar but just puim so it's fascinating what does it say why is it why is it that puim is so great greater than all I'll just read you the L of the the days of will always be here we'll always have we'll always have it to look forward all the books of the prophets and and all those will disappear however which will continue M EST melat EST will always be here will'll always have it'll continue why why not the others Pisa it's an unbelievable question here's the answer the answer is the following all the other holidays all the other holidays it wasn't so bad all the other holidays the Jews did bad but let's face it that there was still a possibility to get out we haven't lost everything however what happened on puim on puim it was that the Jews the Jews had gone to the sud of they had their own wine and they had their own the food but what was the problem yum Kipper is when they had that party yum Kipper is when everybody was was there Yer was when everybody was drinking nothing worse than that I mean maybe Bread on on PES okay but to eat to drink on the night of yum kipur can't think about it that's the lowest that is it no matter what it is no matter how low a Jew goes yum Kipper is still yum Kipper PES is still PES is a yeid lives in B Harbor is a such a sweet Jew he has matah all the time matah PES I don't know if he knows I I I don't know if he knows the difference between Al and a base so he told me re Reb I went to the local there's a breakfast place on PES and it was unbelievable I had matah there they had matza and I ate the matah it wasn't as good as the muffin but the matah was very good I thought to myself he goes and he eats on it but for all of Cl is to sit on the night of kipor and they're all eating and drinking together with everybody else which is in isur we do not mix we do not we do not mix with the we are careful we make were not allowed to be together there are many many not to be together especially for a party especially to drink and eat if a person has to attend so there's a way to go there's a way to fulfill the law properly and still be in attendance but we are careful we are very careful so what happened at that time we didn't pray pray yipper n at least do n you may miss the other parts but do n do K do something none nothing fast at least fast you don't have to do anything else but fast a little bit on yum Kipper no didn't fast so we're sneakers sneakers are easy to wear don't wear regular shoes no nothing says the what happened hasem said I don't care I don't care what they do I don't care they ran away I don't care that they ate and drank on I don't care that they went in assimilated together with all of the go with all of those I don't care hasem said I will be mo I'll forgive them I'll give them I'll give them because of that s says that is our holiday that the Jews should remember always as far as a person could be as dark as the galut as bad as a personal situation could be Al that's why purm is the one holiday that will remain with us forever I want to say that I just see the book just for a moment I see the book came out the daily dose of the Torah any time with all the beautiful daily doses from all of the MIM and it's a beautiful day it's a y everybody can get it it's something very very special to increase the Liu Torah in our homes and to increase the beauty it is that something comes out like this that represents Torah from around the world it should have great and great another uh area another area and that is a person sometimes uh in personal situations they give up a little bit I had uh what shall I tell you I had a parent come to me and the parent tell me that their daughter is estranged their daughter they don't know where she is they tried to do the right things they tried to bring her up correctly but what can I say she went off the the Der so to speak and she left and she left no forwarding address no email no telephone Nobody Knows the parents tried to get a detective to find out where she is they couldn't find her it's already two years nothing nothing no trace of her parents said if we had another child so I could comfort myself so I don't have this one but I have that the only daughter the daughter old their hope all their dreams all of the future is in that daughter one day she get married she have a child they have an AET heartbreaking she left them nice parents I'm talking to them I couldn't imagine nicer people wonderful people beautiful people they said rabby we give up we know we're not going to see her anymore she did such an excellent job to conceal her identity we know that we're never going to see her again we just have a question what should we think in our mind how do we move forward from this and not go back and think about it all the mother said to me with tears in her eyes my husband took all the pictures down in the house we had pictures of her all over playing the playground and then when she graduated the the grade school elementary then when she stood high school with a cap and the Gown we had all the pictures there beautiful beautifully in the house but the lady said the mother said I talked about her all the time and I put the picture the father couldn't take it I what could I take if that's living tell me what's death he took down all the pictures no gone she said I understand my husband o Li o Li that he's correct that he should take them down but what I do as a mother could I forget a daughter what should he do as a father he loved her more than I did he took care of her better than I did and now he doesn't want to hear about it if I even bring up the subject he said please the sign of a smart person is their quiet I said to the parents you can never give up on the daughter you can never think for one moment that you won't see her again there were many people that left many people that disappeared for years and then they came back there are many people that all of a sudden they wanted to do T even after a lifetime even after 10 years after 20 years you cannot give up put the pictures back on the wall every picture the grade school the playing in the sand the high school put them all up and every day say put in a dollar 50 cents whatever you want to rebi Mayor Balan whenever you lose something you put a little bit in you say that little

is that an individual always has hope it doesn't matter what it is it doesn't matter what the difficulty isem will always help us no matter where we are no matter how a person has sunk one more item and that is that we have two bra all of us each each one of us every day of Our Lives Tor the more that a person keeps Tor the more that a person is close to mitzvot the better it is for ourselves for our families we can do anything for schoa the biggest schoola all person has to do is open it it doesn't matter what the saf here is it could be that a person will open up a and learn a little bit doesn't matter a daily do doesn't matter what it is open up and learn the of learning for even a few minutes is bigger than ever it will also Enlighten us said the great rebbi Alan waserman Reb Alman said when somebody would come to him and need an answer and they would want an answer from him re Alan would usually have the answer to give him at the times when it was impossible to give an answer he would open up a safer on the table and he would start to learn from the learning he would get an answer what to tell the person that was the great re Al wasan as long as a person learns even they're in the worst mood even something went on that was very difficult for them but they turn towards liur Torah they turn towards learning they can lift themselves up Hashem said I will come and take you out of that place I'll come and take you even where there is no path that you could ever see and the same thing is with a mitvah a person is any Mitzvah the the strengthen any Mitzvah it is it doesn't matter when a person decides they're going to do it smallest Mitzvah individual will say you know from now on when I get up in the morning I will say one cap before I pray one chapter before I pray unbelievable if the individual says you know what before I pray I will go and I'll wash my hands I'll wash my hands I'll go according to the something small to be to say a out loud that somebody else will answer aain huge we don't realize it we run after all different types of scho all charms and everything one that a person person can do and they got it I've got to tell you just agav whoa a person came to me there is a uh there is a I don't know how you call it not an illness that a person perspires a lot sweat they sweat a lot the guy sweats a lot young man and he says it's embarrassing I get nervous so it's sweating like terrible or if somebody comes to shake my hand and it's the whole hand's wet right and he's nervous about it so he said I tried all kinds of things there is an operation a surgery to get to help that the problem he came to me two weeks before the surgery and he said Rabbi can you give me a bro I'm a little bit scared about it can you give me a that the surgery should be okay so I thought to for a moment what does it say in K you turn the Torah over and turn the Torah over because it's all in the Torah I told him I started going in my head one place in the talud it does talk about persperation about sweat where is that pass you have bread in the morning right you eat a little bit bread in the morning wash eat the bread make bench afterwards this is a great schoa it says in the Tam for many things one of them is of a person perspires too much so I said to him DOI I don't know do you ever eat bread in the morning re I take a colada every morning a drink I time for the bread this what I said hold on for a second DOI I'm going to give you a new menu I want you to have pass Shak wash over the bread in the morning I didn't say I have to eat every day somay some say you could be with others with m not but I want you to have bread he said okay he did it at the end of two weeks he noticed a little bit of a change it was n as bad as it used to be he used to have to take a towel to wipe off there was so now he could like sort of put it off with his hands and he didn't have to have a towel all the time it got a little bit better he called the doctor he wants to postpone the surgery see how it goes he continued the end of one month he caught off the surgery the problem kimat went away still a little bit but kimat went away Torah says if you follow it all its ways are Pleasant you do a mitvah you get rewarded you don't have to worry about it you need something you give some money to the you know what happens from that you double your money you get rich uh everybody knows you give money in order to become rich any mitzvah works like that but sometimes a person could make a mistake and we're coming to the end but I got to tell you never underestimate the value of a Mitzvah never underestimate the value of one little chance of Liu Torah we learn Torah every day I don't know if you know zerimon if you heard of it zarimon I give a sheare five minutes every day you can sign up uh there's a WhatsApp group and there's also a telephone call I don't know if anyone is on the telephone call goes off 4:00 around the world and thousands of people learn together Zar Shimon I cannot tell you the yes the that came from the five minutes no Shar is longer than the five minutes today Shar is not longer anybody would like to sign you can sign up afterwards but I want you to know that I met a ye and the had no parosa none he asked me what he should do and he had a few different ideas you know like exotic ideas you go up to Mount Everest you pray uh when it's R KES and look at the Moon three times and you know all kinds of things I said I got something simple you want I'm part of it I do this year I give it five

thank the zarimon he hooked up that whole thing the guy is so happy Yeshua that comes from learning Yeshua that comes from a Mitzvah anyhow uh will be great sadik had to leave his house there were politics unfortunately political politics happened in the neighborhood in the community and the had to leave with his whole family so he goes to the next community over and there's a wealthy man big
