Rabbi Yom Tov Glaser | Tisha B'Av | CHAZAQ

all right um here we are Tish uh I saw a giant sign that said it's been 100 1,956 years since by sheney and um although I heard a speech in sh where the guy said 1,965 and he's known for always starting his Tish speech with how many years so I don't know if I go with with the huge sign or or I go with the the RV who uh always starts a speech with how many years and you know what I was thinking about I was thinking interrupt excuse me I heard that it was one year that they did not count because they did not believe that that would happen and because that it has who didn't count the jeice we didn't count it cuz why because they they were very shocked that they didn't even believe it happened yeah meaning the Jews in the diaspora I guess majority of Jews were in the diaspora at the time all right that like years interesting I wonder if that's why I wonder if that's why anyway I had this thought that's an interesting thought you know how like the communities not that into the state of Israel you guys know that business yeah and that first B of MDES had all the holiness meaning it had the ark it had all the Miracles it had us keeping shmita here like real shmita it had us doing the three pilgrimages you know Miracles happening the smoke of the corbon is going straight no matter how the wind blew it was like like the first base of M was like the real deal and we lost that then what happens is a a non not a very large population of Jews come up for the second temple many of them weren't even fir many of them were yeah many of them were F you know how many people came back intermarried they came back from Babylon with Gentile wives yeah Ezra was like who are these ladies I guess he had good judar Jewish radar and he saw the wives and he's like those ladies look like Babylonians to me and the so the the at the destruction of the sorry at the rebuilding the second temple they didn't even bother bringing the ark out the ark was hidden right after the the 10 tribes were exiled so then remember you had the 10 tribes in the north you had Judah and benmen in the South had kohanim everywhere and when the 10 tribes were exiled the hamim the wise men the elders hid the ark because they knew that the end you know the end was coming and so they hid the ark I think they hid it around the time that the Canan were taken they took the elders first of Judah and then they hit the ark or just then whatever and they didn't even take out the ark for the second Temple and so here we had a minority of Jews living here with a semi second temple period we were doing the Coronas but it was without all the Miracles uh shita is now was then uh um Durban so the pilgrimages I think were also duraban and so it was very similar to today very similar to today and minus obviously we don't have Bas of mdh it was a gorgeous Bas of mdh it was not as nice as B Reon but when Herod came into town he was like you call that a Bas of migd dis and he made he like did a full redo of the base of migd dis and those are the herodian stones you know the kotel has those frames around it so that that's called herodian Stone because King Herod uh made it you know really really something Beyond I think it was even Beyond by Reon if I'm not uh mistaken but it was similar to today what we're mourning is uh you speak English by any chance do you mind coming to this side please like sit in that chair right next to that guy keep coming I'm trying not to look wide for the camera so yeah there you go oh that's your spot bro thank you yeah come over a little bit not you the guy behind you perfect so anyway the um I'm just wondering if like it was very we lost our it was a loss of our nation state in a big way we've had three holocausts we had the destruction of first temple all the death and destruction and taken out into slavery we had the second base of mcness destroyed I don't know how many people were killed I don't know how many millions taken out into slavery both those holocausts we lost our nationhood and the third Holocaust is what happened um you know after the showa but the what happened was the show of the the act the Holocaust that we were raised with but it's interesting how much the Fram Mourns by Shen but doesn't want to be gur our current situation you hear what I'm saying now there's one major difference well there's probably many major differences besides the fact that that we didn't we don't have Bas M now we don't have corbon Etc but one thing we did have was Jewish leadership Jewish leadership 2,000 years ago we had all the T in B Mikes we had the T so who was leaders of the Jews it was the it was the you know it was it was y it was it was the shim it was reab AA it was you understand it was the greats today a Jewish leader you know is not bearded not necessarily sh Tor Mitzvah and um that's who the world calls our leaders I mean those are the leaders of Israel and then there's these bearded guys who walk around but no leaders no one in the world considers the Jewish leaders today the bearded guys walking around you understand you're rabbis you stay out of this we're going to talk to the Jewish leaders and so it's interesting that the leadership is uh that people call these Jewish leaders and you want to know something I don't consider them Jewish leaders I just don't if for 3,000 years every Gentile King in the world who wanted to do anything with the Jews knew that he had to speak to the greatest Torah scholar of the generation if he wanted to let the Jews know something because he had to speak to the Jewish leader I don't believe The Narrative of today saying that these are the Jewish leaders the Jewish leaders are still the G Tera those are the Jewish leaders and not only that but all the Lost lives by us being careful of Civilian deaths in Gaza is that what the is the we have to be careful of Civilian deaths of the enemy and so how many Jewish lives have been lost with us being careful in Gaza in our land okay I think we should scrap that video let's do a new one oh and I never it's Minish M because I never TSH U for this session we're about to have I'd like to um to uh give a br that in the of this it should be for and bodman and uh um his y site is V of and also to a person who was actually a t of mine he's been very ill should have his name is dubish and also big thanks to kahila kadosha here in raar what I call married student housing and um big thanks to kazak for arranging this and lastly is uh Torah any time who hasem has become the biggest Yesa on Earth who put out millions and millions of Torah hours since they began and really unbelievable so what I'm going to do now is instead of talking about Tish I'm not going to change the subject what I'm going to do is take questions I think that'd be more interesting now to take questions so I think people have really interesting questions and I'd be willing to hear those questions so um let's start with that guy over there what's your question young man uh my question is um does God really need our to fill us uh does do does god need our prayers okay I'm not going to do a long thing on that um but there's you know a lot of great rabbis speak about you know God needing our prayers um does God need our prayers now obviously we have the famous thing of an infinite being can't lack anything so he can't have needs but the second you go cabalistic certainly God can create a need to need if he chose to meaning meaning an infinite being can create the world in infinite ways including a way that he would need our prayers on a super cabalistic level now I'm going super super cabalistic When you pray is that you praying what's what's what is a super super cabalistic level that this whole world's a digital simulation it's all made of el po of godliness and so when you're praying are you really praying who is that who is that praying maybe it's God praying to God through you and then it starts getting really weird but it but it is an interesting cabalistic question of what are you doing anytime you're doing a Mitzvah and what are you doing here is it not all God anyway we we have a commandment to call out to God I don't know if you know this did you know we have one of the 613 one of the 613 is to call out to God when uh under duress so if you're ever under duress you have a Torah commandment to call out to God which is very interesting that uh that we're that it's an actual Mitzvah to do it so the answer is just I'm just going to go real simple the real simple thing is is that all before God created the world he existed in undifferentiated Oneness he created other meaning the world he created other so to speak by the way CU super cabalistic this is part of that Oneness so God created the world other separate from that Oneness why in order that the human beings inside this world would relate back to God that's it just to relate back to God now the relationship of you calling to God for your needs is the relationship can you imagine parents who created a situation where their kids were fed by feeders can you imagine that can you imagine parents who raised their kids on feeders what would be missing what would be missing connection yeah the connection the relationship there's no relationship so you calling out to God is the relationship but I've got great news for you and there's a crazy news I'm about to tell you from a Zohar I'm guessing that the reason you have that question is because you don't particularly connect to praying it's because if God doesn't need our prayers then why should I pray well he's chosen to need your prayers apparently based on what I just said um but still I think that you're not I think you're asking that question because you don't necessarily feel like praying too much could be could be what's behind it uh anyone else willing to admit besides this guy and me that I don't particularly like asking God for things anyone else okay I didn't what we were saying we're asking for this depends yeah we're oh you what were we doing so anyway so I spent years feeling like a shagets which is yish for a I've spent years feeling like a because I I never feel like asking Hashem for anything just and I have all these friends who are like you got to ask Hashem if you don't ask Hashem it won't go you got to ask Hashem and now I have a wife who asks Hashem for like her left shoe has help me find my left shoe you know and I mean she's literally like help me find my toothbrush help me find this help me find that if you don't mind sitting on this side I'd really appreciate it help me find my toothbrush she literally asks him for everything and and meanwhile I don't want to ask hasem for anything and guess what the same people who ask Hashem for everything love going to the vortex locations I.E the holy places where people love to pray they like to go to Reish shim they like to go to the cotel they like to go to to uh the arizal like to go toes they like to go to Europe to the sadik game they like to go to uman to rebi nman and so what do I find myself doing I find myself constantly driving to these places and you know what I do when I get there I send a WhatsApp out to the world saying um Can someone please send me their name uh anyone who would like to send me their names especially people who need to get married I'm at the konis and benio sent me your names and so while my wife's in there praying away I just I chill I write out you know at the C I'm at the C and and and I'm reading down the name sometimes I'm in the forest right outside the C and I'm reading the names so I have something to do while I'm there because I just don't feel the connection at the wall either the cotel either I used to feel like a go like everyone's so connected here everyone's praying away and I don't I don't feel it so after many many years one day I'm reading a safer called the M by the is Pitzer and he brings up a Zohar that saved my life an amazing zoh and which zoh was in par suim about the spies who went into land of Israel and he said that and the Zora there says there are three types of Jews there's the types of Jews that are the 10 Morag Jews those are the not so good Jews and then there's the types of Jews that are like k b Yuna Jews and then there's the types of Jews that are the yahushua Jews the Joshua Jews three types of Jews 10 10 spies the cul of Jews and the osua Jews the Joshua Jews and he goes on to say that the 10 spy types of Jews they don't want to pray and if they prayed it wouldn't help and then you got the cave Jews and remember when the spies went into the land where did cave go where'd he go he went to the cave of the Patriarchs in kevron to the mar to pray for their success and he says that the K Bena Jews they have a tremendous desire like my wife to pray for everything and if they don't pray it don't go if they don't pray it won't go and then here's the part that saved my life where I became a Jew again there's the Joshua Jews the yahushua Ben nun Jews they don't have a tremendous desire to ask Hashem for anything and even if they did it wouldn't make a difference they're pre- blessed they're job is just to go in and go in like committed and and watch the magic happen go in committed watch the magic happen and we're not discussing sh you're still obligated to say sh you're still we still do all the prayers of rash but if you notice that your light bulb goes off when you get to elai every time you do sh as soon as you say it's because you're from the k b Jews and it goes on to explain why did I say you're by the Yeshua Bon Jews sorry and it goes on to say why the Joshua Jews don't feel like praying and even if they prayed it wouldn't make much of a difference and he says because they got the Braha they have a Braha from thead mosh blessed Yeshua you understand M Yeshua comes pre- blessed you know he's Mr B he's in a relationship with hem just like he's got to ask for everything and if he don't ask he don't go but if you're the kind of Jew that doesn't feel particularly connected to asking for everything guess what you're still Jewish you're pre-blessed you got the Yeshua Ben nun thing going on so your job you still have to do other things there's certain things you need to do for example come in fully committed to things like Yoshua was going into land of Israel like full on he was not if you read the sa for Yoshua he's he was not you know doing a wimpy job there he was going in like we're going in you know he wasn't stopping for anything you know that's that's Yeshua B so come in fully committed all right uh yeah uh what's what's uh Who had who had a question here yeah what's your [Music] question right is when we're the when we're dant chish you mean the general oh chish itself is it hashem's missing his dwelling place or are we missing our connection yeah um you have to tell me more about that question because those sound synonymous in a way meaning God having his dwelling place and that being our connection sound like the same thing to me so I'm not sure what's really bothering you yeah and our connection to hasem is a lot less some English right a lot stronger with conne feeling we missing uhuh uhuh but I don't hear a question and I hear the facts the fact are we don't have that connection and he doesn't have a selfish thing is us what's what's that do we care about us our connection our about not Respec so I would say I would say it's I I don't have a direct answer for you but i' would say maybe it's madas like for example till you're on the less selfish madrea we're the ones hurting we're the ones you know that can't you know live our lives normally because we're disconnected but I think I think as we grow and lose our ego more and more that's what growing is growing really is losing your ego more and more I think as we grow and we're less ego bound we're a little more worrying about hashem's creation hashem's perspective hashem's hashem's purpose for making the the world in the first place but again like empathy comes from a certain humility you know what's a bad therapist a bad therapist is when you're sharing what's going on with you and the therapist says oh let me tell you a story just like that that happened to me you understand like he get over yourself therapist like you're supposed to be listening to him not him hearing your story that you know you have in common so in a way we're kind of like the therapist and that we're worried about our connection but I think the goal is that we'd be more concerned about Hashem and his situation than us yeah who else are what was your question what's your question um basically I wish we could show these guys I mean you guys willing to be on tour anytime anyone not want to be on tour anytime yeah how do you continue to hope for something and yearn for it so to speak that seems seemingly 19 whatever the number you said before it's a long time continue to be let down every year every day uhhuh uhhuh so so the the way we do that is is the qu oh the question question question is um how are we supposed to have strength to keep for example every Tish to keep asking for Bas Mish but you're also asking for it constantly you know every again and again and again you know we're going to be in sukus and you think it's different than Tish and you're going to be [Applause] like all R all what is make this we don't stop with this we just don't stop so I know you're asking a question about Tish like go through another one of these asking for B mes but how about going through another day of non-stop asking for basa MDES maybe we should like ask for things instead of that you know cuz it is really the cherry on the top of the pie you know think how many things would have to happen for example what have got answered today and put the Bas of mcdes up like literally we get news after Tish Hashem heard your prayers here's the Bas of MDES how long do you think it would last I mean the the state of Israel would dismantle it by tomorrow morning I just I just met a guy I just met a guy at the shabas table who was a high up in the shim bet the internal Secret Service and he at one point was head of a unit whose job is to is to flag anyone in Israel who's who's uh outspoken about rebuilding Bas of MC dish like the government's like got a unit just to make sure we don't rebuild the base of mish now but I understand that they have a unit like that because all it takes is one wing nut with a rocket launcher you know he just blows up the gold Dome and we're in World War II no it makes sense that there should be a unit like that anyway but he was cool he was at the shabale he was telling us stories of you know we asked him to tell us a few stories he had some good stories and um anyway it is the cherry on top B mikdash is the end so I'll give you something personal to ask for when you ask for Israel being reinhabited we do do that right so I guess we do that but uh but there's all kinds of things that have to happen first before that so here's your answer um you want to follow me with the camera for a sec I want you to imagine that from the beginning of this aresh is a beautiful tapestry a beautiful painting a mural and the tapestry goes from here and it moves all the way across to here okay and over there all the way over there on that end over there is brium and over here is uh where are we holding now it's only supposed to get to 6,000 years so I I don't have your guys perspective but I'm imagining we're somewhere around here maybe here I don't know we only got like a little bit left I mean we're what are we 84 what does that leave us 236 years is it what's uh what's what's that is it 216 216 years oh so it's more like here I guess yeah maybe right here maybe right here we're really close on a 6000-year system were really close but anywhere that you would have been living during any of that entire time of the giant mural of our history and when I say history I thought I saw a step but it was over there um when I say history I mean Capital age his story his story this is his story and but anywhere you would have been along those 6,000 years let me just tell you what life would look like ready oh by the way you like the arnish it's the curtain you like the pro it's pretty right it's pretty nice yeah let me show you how it's ugly you want me to show you how this is ugly could I turn this into ugly what do you think watch this it's ugly okay this is an ugly prus and this is you saying another Tish above we're nowhere I mean we've gotten nowhere but what happens is as you back out and all of a sudden you see the crown and all of a sudden meaning you start to see the trying to fall off this thing you understand as you back out and get some perspective all of a sudden you're like oh my gosh like we're on our way we're on our way and we know where we're going and and the truth is now is that we are with our faces like pressed against right here this amodis this here that's you know that's the end of this thing is 6,000 which begins a whole other realm this is the period like right here for the next years is called biasi it's not the 6,000 year thing you understand that Hashem has to rebuild the Temple between now and 6,000 because all the Prophecies of the Bishi meaning Messiah Redemption the Jewish people come home and we rebuild by aishi that all has to be within 216 years like no wonder we're here think where we're having this class right now no wonder where this class could only be in yam when you got 216 years left a lot of his story had to happen for us to get here and so when you're feeling like oh man another Tissa Bob like when are we ever getting out of this yeah if you could back off a little and see the bigger picture and how close we've come it's pretty amazing it's pretty amazing I me we are really on the edge we're really on the edge and we know that from our sages that it's got to get crazier before it happens meaning it's going to get a lot darker before it gets light msia considered like Sunrise what's Sunrise Sunrise pitch black out and it starts getting a little lighter a little lighter a little lighter and a little lighter and then all of a sudden like the the sun like pierces your forehead which means it's got to get darker before it gets light that's why the what's going to happen in the world is going to get crazy the world's going to get crazy it's called heavly Mia the birth PS of Messiah now I don't know how many of you guys ever saw a woman in birth in labor but uh it's crazy it gets really crazy it think get super dicey and she has no choice she has no choice meaning if if she thinks she's going to backtrack now the middle of her labor yeah I mean she would die it's a very interesting thing so she wants to resist to everything going on cuz you know if I put you in that kind of pain in your abdomen you would do anything to get me to stop to reverse what I'm doing to but this is the opposite she has to go further in the way out isn't out honey take me home no the only way out is through it's got to come through and it's going to get crazy and I said years ago before Corona hit I was already telling people like things are going to be getting crazy now I just say it all the time on my thing like things are about to get crazy and then Corona hit and things were 10 times crazier than I thought way crazier than I was imagining at the time I was saying things are going to get it crazy but because there was you don't remember this right before Corona anti-Semitism spiked in around the world you remember that they were like punching yiden in Brooklyn like going were like they shot up a Sho in in Union uh Jersey City or Union City I forget shot some oh a FR Supermarket got shot up um a Sho R Rottenberg Sho crazy stuff was happening no one remembers any of this why cuz Corona hit and then things got really crazy and then after Corona hit things went 10 times more crazy with black lives matter cities getting burned down but no one remembers that because we had Biden that was the next disaster and then um and then but but no some other crazy stuff happens not coming to my mind right now and then and then October 7th happened and the goam didn't the Gentiles didn't even wait till October 8th to like say you know instead of saying oh the poor Jews what a terrible thing they they were the opposite they were like yeah and you get five bucks if you know where my yeah was quoted from and um anyway the wasn't I figured no one would know anyway the um and then the so October 7th happened and things are just getting crazier and crazier and now we got Iran you know like it's crazy because we're in the birth things Messiah you want to hear something weird our rabbis teach us that if you keep third meal you're going to be spared the anxiety of those birth pangs well it says you'll be spared the birth pangs all together I'll take that too but but the main thing is you'll be spared the anxiety ofia now what about you eating a meal when you're already full from the CH what about you eating a meal when you're already full and having a little tuna fish with some bread spares you from the birth P of the Mia you ever thought about that rabbi what excellent question I'm glad you think so you want to hear my answer you can throw my answer out in the waist basket if you want but it's an answer I thought of here's the answer the answer is is that I'm going to couch it in a way of La Bly Chua La people become from what they do is they start with shabas dinner and after about a half a year to a year nine months 10 years get for lunch they come for shabas lunch as well you know they come in for shabas lunch then after about a half year they decide they're going to stay over in the hood they're not even going to drive home between the two they're going to sleep over after a while they give up their phone and but forget after lunch after lunch back to the phone you know back to they're going to Venice Beach or something anyway eventually they get to sh Shas where they're committed to shalas and what happens at shalas the sun goes down three stars come out and it's not Chavez which means what it's really saying is anyone who votes with the that is a sh shabas Jew and makes it all the way through third meal if you're a third meal kind of Jew what does that mean it means you're sh shabas it doesn't mean you just lit candles Friday it means you actually keep shabas third meal is for people committed to keeping shabas well if you're committed to keeping shabas you know what you're saying you're making a very specific statement and that statement is I don't think the world's real I don't think the world's real I think God created the world and if God created the world it means it's a creation you guys ever thought about that word a creation if it's creation that means it's being created it's not real it's a creation by you making kid at chabas night you are making testimony but by you doing shabas sorry third meal you are really making testimony you're signing that testimony that you don't believe the world's real well what are the birth pays of Messiah what are the travails of the end of days there the world going into a full anxiety attack as Hashem brings the birth of redemption to the planet well that's going to be hardcore and there's going to be a world full of high anxiety but if you're a Sher shabas Jew you have no reason to be anxious because you've already voted with your feet by going into chabas and saying I don't believe this world's real and so anything that God's going to do up until Yos mashia with all the craziness that's going to happen on this planet before we get there which we're already part of we're already seeing it happen when all the craziness happens well I'm just going to watch as the Torah says and you will be silent and watch the magic happen we will be witnesses to the end of days we will watch it we will see the Miracles we will see the by we'll see AEM that was a long answer to your question and oh it's already six any other questions we're almost out of our fast now I want to throw a fast yeah you had a question I want different than what I said before okay how could I really this is I'm talking for the problem it's really me right how could like I understand that I need to get out of suffering but do I really want the Gul do I really like I like my life I love that question you came to me and offer me I'll give you m right now like first of all we grow up we don't know what M like you know people do but like the regular schools I don't know m is am I going to be able to still watch basketb you know what I'm saying like really am I going to still be able to watch basketball when mhia comes um do we really want M now it's an amazing question and and I'd like to put it in an interesting way um it turns out that the Gentiles um have their Jew did you know there's one Jew for every uh I mean just if you do the even math let's say there's 14 million Jews today is that about right I don't know how many Jews there are today something like 14 million what is 8 billion divided by 14 million 571 so you have 571 gentiles if we broke it down evenly you have 571 Gentiles who are yours what I mean by yours meaning their lives are being sustained by you and you're so when you make bras when you DAV when you keep Mitzvah you keep chabas you're literally giving life to them and you know who those Gentiles are those are the ones who praise the Jews but guess what a out of those 571 Jews Gentiles per Jew has a Jew who's their Jew and that Jew he don't know his knee from his elbow when it comes to Judaism you understand he's got pork juice coming off his chin he wouldn't know how to keep chabas if his life depended on it he never even heard the word Mala before and so what is that Gentile that Gentile he doesn't know who is Jewish so he just like get the Jews and this was part of's to as as said you sure there's not one BR left for me please Daddy BR you know y was like I already gave the BR to your brother Jacob he tricked you he tricked me oh come on one BR and then what did get what did y give him yeah he gives him a nice BR he says you'll live by the sword anti-semitism and Rashi says well how did you both get the braa Rashi says when the Jews act like Jews Jacob gets the br br when the Jews act like Gentiles ASV lives by the sword and he gets his BR now imagine what's your first name sh imagine that your 570 Gentiles found out who you were you learning Yeshiva now yeah what's it called bra oh nice yeah Z tell rabbe Brazil hello for me so the so you come out of Zur one day and there's 570 Gentiles saying there he is there he is and you're like there he is and and they're like and they're like are you SCH you don't have to say your last name for your anonity and yeah I'll say Goldstein y Goldstein he's like yeah it's him and then and then they they have a representative so the representative is like where you going scho and well I was actually GNA go buy a drink and and then he's like one drink what do you like to drink what do you like to drink if you bought a drink like yeah if you were buy a drink there's no money's not the issue it's 57 Snapple what flavor Peach he likes a peach flavor Snapple uh peach flavor Snapple and then you got 571 people like boxing it out who's going to get to pay for it they finally decideed they're going to divide it into 571 people the Snapple and they're like what would you like with it and now sh's like I'll go for a scharma one schwarmer what are you liking it anyway words going out you know they're dividing it up they almost fist fights over it and then it's like okay get back in the base mid cuz you're like feeding us torent he's like well I wasn't just going to get a drink I was going to get a drink cuz I was on my way back to my dorm cuz I was going to change into my gym clothes and go play a little basketball and they're like basketball basketball what you talking about food you don't realize your sustaining us with your T and you want to play basketball and schmo's like oh man he's like goes back in the base M he's looking around for another exit you know finds another exit he's just like and the 571 had a spy in there and they're like he's out of the building they're all on radios like running around trying to get him back to the basement meanwhile Shamu is now playing basketball in Tel Aviv cuz he doesn't want to get caught sh I'm gonna go a little deeper and say the reason that you want to play basketball is cuz you have a little bit of a special connection when you do it otherwise you wouldn't do it the reason why you like to crank certain times of Music which will leave nameless is because there's a certain connection you feel when you hear that music well what if you were fully connected like that you know I'm a mountain biker a certain connection I get when I ride my mountain bik and I listen to like hardcore instrumental jazz fusion fusion is jazz mixed with rock so it sounds like rock but it's there's no vocals it's just the top musicians in the world playing stuff that would just blow your mind full volume I've been doing that since I'm a kid amongst other sports surfing and various other things I just want to share with you something that happened to me once I went to a seminar it was called call the chaar it was put out of business CU it made a particular hidic group nervous as if they couldn't ser serve their own people cuz so many of a particular group were coming to that seminar so that seminar put them out of BU that group put them out of business of course when you put something good out of business it splits so now there's about seven I think eight seminars that are all that seminar just different names all over the place one's in Israel it's called The Well of being anyway but that seminar called the call of the Chau far I got on a bus one day and as soon as I the bus left night at night the bus left at night the windows were taped were uh covered with paper they took our watch and phone as soon as we got on the bus they said you're giving this up for the next 3 days they drove us out I have no idea where we were somewhere we never knew what time it was for the next 3 days we had no access to our phones and what they did was they led us through three three days of the most intense trauma release that you could ever have and because I was bubble wrapped you know I'm like an Amazon package growing up in West LA like the closest pedophile was like 11 zip codes away like nothing ever happened to me so how am I supposed to do trauma release you know some of the people in there are trauma like they had stuff happen you know I had nothing to happen to me so I was like I released more intensely than anyone in the the entire place and a man who worked in this kind of work which is in America it's called new Warriors men's trainings he'd been working for 40 years with men they invited him to Israel a gentile a they invited him to Israel to see the what they had created for Jews off this style work he said that only two other times had he ever seen anyone process as intensely as I process I don't remember hardly any but all I know was I was screaming at the top of my lungs I was in fetal position on the floor and every ounce of saliva I don't know what a nice word of what's in your nose and tears we like a pool like at one person I heard someone say bring a Spong a stick which is like a mop in Israel terms because he's going to start rolling in it and I'm screaming such a high-pitch scream that if I tried to do that I wouldn't be able to talk for a month but it actually was massaging my throat when when I finally I finished my process there the 40-year guy took me a took me like they put me on the corner and he came to talk to me he was asking me what's your name what's your phone number what's your date of birth what's this that and that I'm like what is the matter with you he's like well I've seen this happen twice in 40 years it took them about 5 days to find out who they were he said what you went through was your postbirth experience that was after you were born I said you're right I couldn't articulate it when I was screaming but that's what was happening it was the B it was my birth the separation from Oneness you see before Hashem created the world he existed in undifferentiated Oneness before hasem created the world he existed in undifferentiated Oneness well you started the first nine months of your life in the undifferentiated Oneness of your mother's womb and then one day you were born separate from that Oneness and ever since that day all you have ever wanted is to come back to that Oneness as it says that yak was comforted over over his mother Sarah when he brought Rifka into Sarah's tent very strange lushion what's he doing in Sarah's tent with Rifka when he married her that night and you ready for this you ready for the crazy part I didn't touch my surfboard my mountain bike my jazz fusion my craft beers or any other thing that keeps me connected for 3 months I didn't even know I wasn't riding my mountain bike I didn't even know it I I only realized after three months that I forgot to do my sports it was crazy so the answer is much deeper than you were probably expecting and yes I will be going mountain biking probably tomorrow preferably after H so I can listen to my crazy music although I found out recently from the posk and pins carlen that exercise and the music that helps you do it carefully because I'm doing pretty stream writing is M which was really cool news to hear we are definitely heading towards connection and we do want it even if it means that the things that connected us pale in comparison pale in comparison we do want that connection it can be had in all things I mean basketball might be a little distracting but certainly going into nature can be a similar connection marriage that's a big one and the the question is is it a connection or is it a distraction but if it connects you figure out how to connect him to what connects it's a lot easier when you're in the forest riding a mountain bik or in the ocean riding waves it's less like you know jock man guy basketball court being aggressive and having Noone see your shot you know no one sees your shot coming down the mountains so anyone else want to ask anything listen uh I I hope I hope you guys were happy that I did a departure from mean at this point like I don't think any of us can talk about October 7th anymore um or watch another movie like it's the funniest thing the k Community is like has one day year that's like movie movie day you know it's like somehow it's become like yeah we don't watch movies except on Tish Tish we watch movies yeah they're getting pretty well produced too and yeah we're all a little numb at this point but vibrational resonance meaning true connection is I don't think we're numb about that like we all know when we feel it and we know we want to and that's exactly what will happen when we reach the end of days so I'd like to just finish off with a little mashu little something about um a little less ethnocentric than the average rabbis talk about have you guys ever noticed that Jews are very ethnocentric as if the whole world revolves around us so what do you think the Exodus was from Egypt meaning the 10 plagues and the whole what do you think that was all about what was that all about me why did why did yakob of ven's kids have to go down to Egypt and have this like whole like massive pyrotechnic show of the 10 plagues what do you think that was for us what does shim say it was for notice with Joseph all of civilization has like sold itself into slavery to Pharaoh Pharaoh's civilization meaning his world was gigantic it's Society it's civilization it's a headquarters of humanity at the time why did God say to what did God say to Moses as the reason why he's doing this and remember come on you guys what yeah very louder a little the whole so that would people will speak of me in the whole land he said that my and he said my name shall be great remember the whole story Moses goes to pharaoh and Pharaoh's like who is this Hashem that you're speaking of you know he's not on his list of gods Moses says to God he's like what are you doing to me and what are you doing to the people now they're serving their their slavery was made even harder and God says the reason I'm doing this is not does not have anything to do with you has nothing to do with the Jewish people the reason I'm doing this is that I will be known my name will be great I created this place I'm hidden inside of every grain of wood inside this whole thing and ever since Adam and Eve ate from the fruit you can't see me anymore but you will see me at the end of days meaning my name will be made great and then he decimates the biggest civilization in the world well iinaa that's the same story now that that Redemption that happened then was called the gulas pratis the Gula pratis the uh small Redemption and today we are going to have a global Redemption do you know that that when I hear the nations of the world being nice to Israel like America still sending arms or Germany sending arms or I hear America's stopping to send so much arms or England's no longer going to send arms all I hear the whole time is is oh as long as they're sending arms then they'll be blessed and then we don't get to have God's name be great cuz if you bless the Jews now you're going to get more BR and now we don't get to get God's name great why because the most powerful nations in the world have to go down to their knees that's what happened to Egypt that's what's going to happen to America that's what's going to happen to Germany that's what's going to happen to France it's what's going to happen to London England it's going to happen to to uh to Poland it's what's going to happen to to Russia that's what's going to happen in China that's what's going to happen to North Korea and South Korea that's what's going to happen in Japan that's what's going to happen in Shanghai in Taiwan they're all going to go down to their knees and all see Hashem but as long as they keep helping us they'll get a br and they're not going to go down their knees they're going to get a little more time you guys want more time I don't want more time so you understand when I hear they're friends with us they're just perpetuating more of this status quo they're all going to go down they're all going to go down to their knees and especially the Western ones the Zohar says that they're going to go down hard for how they treated us over the last 2,000 years for the destruction of the second temple and how they treated us hashem's going to take them down hard he's going to humiliate them and on the world stage Western countries ASF Edom I'll take that one that's what I want to see I don't want anyone to get hurt but you know let's let's move things ahead a little bit like we only got 216 years for B biasi that's half the time of bias Rishon and sheni were you expecting byi was going to be half the time we have less than half the time left for Bishi look where we're holding so of course the world's going crazy now things are going to be speeding up a lot and we also have to burn our idols you know and the biggest Idol today is is the leadership leadership the non-bearded leadership the first time in world history that a Jewish leader wasn't the one with the longest beard and the most Torah knowledge call these people leaders of the Jews so Jewish leaders we got to burn our own Idols but we're almost there guys it's happening this is it and so yeah it's less ethnocentric it's less ethnocentric because the reason God's doing this is for his name in this world and his name being made great amongst us we already think his name's great it's the world stage where his name is going to be made great and that's going to be the ultimate firework show that's going to be where the biggest kides hasem will happen is when aem's name is made great in this world Amen
