have they
have which in this day and age is also
the the the uh the of the generation is
to acquire these traits to have enough
enough fear
of where we actually want to listen to
him so we'll start off with a couple of
questions and you have to answer those
questions to yourself you don't have to
necessarily ask answer to me you have to
ask yourself these questions
first
question is if you weren't Jewish I'm
assuming everybody here is
Jewish if you weren't Jewish let's say
you were born in
Bangladesh or you were born in I don't
know in Saudi Arabia your best friend
was uh you know uh one of these uh one
of these terrorists you weren't a Jew
okay and you found out about Judaism
found out oh this is
religion is got Tora in Mount Si there
was this guy named named Moshe sounds
like a nice guy he was 7 m Long Tall
which is 20 ft by the way really big guy
according to us all these wonderful
things and he got toah and everybody
agrees it's true the Muslims agreed the
Christians agreed the atheists agreed
they just don't want to listen everybody
agrees it's
true and you agree it's true too would
you convert to
Judaism
no the honest answer is no the honest
answer for most people in the world is
no and the reason why is because most of
us don't actually know what it means to
be a
Jew we don't actually view it like it's
AO like it's a merit to be a Jew how do
we know just look at the streets today
if you look at the Italians the Italians
are proud to be Italian they have their
Flags they have their pastas they have
their restaurants they have their
attitude their language regardless of
where they go in the world they're proud
to be
Italian you go to the Irish people they
convince the whole world that there's
one day a year you're supposed to all
drink and everybody agrees so we drink
too to the
Irish Mexicans play soccer with each
other not you're not even allowed to
play soccer with them why because that's
the Mexican tradition that's what they
do and so on and so forth the Puerto
Ricans and the blacks and oh go to the
Muslims the Muslims are so proud to be
Muslims that they're praying in the
middle of the street in the middle of
the street they stop traffic they stop
praying they allahar and everything else
they're proud to do what they're doing
they sell their halal food and they do
something called dawa what's dawa dawa
is in Hebrew kiru it's to get people to
become
Muslim and their job for the last two
decades the last 20 years has been to
convince the entire world that your only
solution is to become a
Muslim and this is why even when you go
to one of these trucks and the corners
is all over New York and all over the
all over the United States you see these
trucks they sell halal food on the Halal
food truck you also see a sticker in
Arabic and most people if you don't
speak Arabic you don't know what it
means what does that actually mean this
is they say God is God is the only God
and muhammmad is our messenger and they
give this to different customers that
keep coming back so you ask to pay what
is this why you give him stickers you go
SC trying to help him to be a Muslim but
he's a Christian he's a Jew he's a
something else yeah I'm trying to help
him out the only way he's going to get
the G in according to this
Muslim is If he if he uh converts
becomes a Muslim he says oh so you're
doing daah while you're doing business
he goes no no no dawa is what I do
business is just on the
side the business is on the side the
number one priority for the guy selling
halal food for the guy that's running
the mosques for any Arab all over the
world two billion of them them is to do
da why to do dawa why why to why to get
the world to do to become Muslims number
one reason they actually believe their
lie even though their whole concept
everything that they have is a lie we
all know it you just look at the Quran
within five minutes you realize
it's they have there's wrong dates
there's wrong numbers there's wrong
everything they say that Jesus is a
family member
ofu knew they liveed thous years
difference you don't need to be a genius
you just look at the it's it's wrong but
they don't look at it so they believe
whatever their uh leaders say but the
reality is that even if you show them
these mistakes they're still going to
stay
Muslim why listen I'm already in it if I
leave they're going to kill me anyway
what's the word they're going to kill my
kids they're going to kill me there's no
way I'm not leaving once you're in
you're in that's why in general even
though there's a lot of people
converting to Judaism
today and we deal with a lot of them
very very rarely do you ever see a
Muslim convert out of Muslim out of
Islam and it's not because they don't
believe I have many of them that tell me
they believe they send me messages they
they want to learn they but they can't
convert out why because they know
there's a sacrifice that's that's
includes their life it's not just a
marriage issue so anyway the problem is
that the
Muslims live their lifee and believe
their lie like it's true the Christians
that worship an idol that died 2,000
years
ago they also believe their lie they
send people from house to house whether
it's Jehovah Witness or it's je for
Jesus or it's new this new thing over
the last maybe 10 years called Messianic
Judaism which is also Christianity just
called Judaism for the first time in
history first time in 2,000 years the
Christians are pretending to be Jews for
2,000 years they were busy killing
us 2,000 years they're busy killing us
in the last 20 years they said you know
what we tried killing them for 2,000
years these people don't die so let's
just let's just get them to let's
pretend like we're them so we'll get
them to become Christians anyway so you
have organizations that spend over $300
million a year just in Israel to recruit
Jews to convert to
Christianity and every week
unfortunately a thousand Jews convert to
Christianity
why because the Christians believe their
lie and live accordingly the Jews on the
other hand unfortunately us we actually
have the truth and everyone knows
it but we live our life like it's a lie
we have the truth but we live it like
it's a lie why when was the last time
you told a Jew come to my house keep
Shabbat what was the last time he told
you come to T come on you got to do CH
what was the last time you told the guy
listen the the girl that you're dating
is not Jewish you should leave her what
was the last you told the guy listen you
know you really got to start changing
your diet you have to eat kosher once in
a while you'll tell your friend but as
soon as he gives you an attitude you
stop even more so when was the last name
you told a a non-jew hey you have
any interest in
Judaism instead of believing in an
idol the numbers continue to
shrink and the reason why is because we
don't know what it means to be a Jew we
don't know what our mission
is and simply put we're not even proud
of
it if we were at the very least we'd be
just like them we'd go door to door
begging people to come to instead of
having 100 people here there' be
10,000 and still 10 10,000 people
waiting on outside Jews non-jews people
waiting oh there's truth somewhere I'm
going in France rabai there are 1300
muses 1300 musks in France and one is in
France 1300 musks but on Friday night
which is their
Shabbat people show up to the mask one
hour before time one hour before the
prayer starts they show up already why
to C catch a place to find a spot
because if you don't come an hour before
you have to stand outside there's not
enough room in 1300
musks if you look at us we you barely
get a minan sometimes you barely get 10
guys to show up to Sho in some
places why we still don't understand
what it means this is how I spent most
of my life most of my life I was just
like every other Jew in the world
confused not knowing really what the
purpose of life is and just like the
statistic in America according to Pew
research 90% of American Jews do not
keep Shabbat
90% 9 % of American Jews don't keep
Shabbat and even worse
66% 66% don't believe that you have to
believe in God in order to be
Jewish they don't think that believing
in God and being Jewish have anything to
do with each other meaning that we've
confused what Judaism is we think
Judaism is something like a tradition
it's something
nice it's like the way you know it's
like the where I grew up a certain
neighborhood like the guys from Brooklyn
or the guys from uh this way or the guys
from that thing it's like it's a nice
thing the keep us looks good it's like
the guys from Africa that walk around
underwear no different if you go to
Africa you're going to look at them like
they're strange why they're walking
around with underwear they're going to
look at you with the keeper and the suit
and everything you're strange you're
strange to them they're strange to you
your custom versus their Customs now I'm
not talking to people that are not
religious I'm talking to you to all of
Amisa which includes the religious
community because out of the
90% of people that don't keep Shabbat
94% believe that it's okay to work on
Shabbat which means that 40% of the
religious ones the ones that actually
keep Shabbat still think it's okay to
work on Shabbat like working on Shabbat
and Shabbat have nothing to do with each
other which means we're really confused
this was
me this was me for most of my life I
came to the United States when I was 10
years old from Israel and as soon as we
landed in America we became American
even though I didn't know the language I
knew maybe a few letters of the
alphabet have a seat it's your place
anyway so we didn't really know much I
knew the first few letters of the
alphabet because it was in a Serial box
and other than that I didn't know much
but when you come to the United States
when you're 10 years old you learn
pretty
quickly and you fast forward a few years
I started working when I was young
went to school I was a good student but
I also knew that I didn't want to be in
school for a million years I didn't want
to be a doctor I didn't be a lawyer and
I didn't want to be in school for 100
years I already knew what money was when
I was already 17 so I decided to go into
the stock market
business I became a stock
broker the first couple of years were
very interesting my boss has made a ton
of money I made absolutely nothing this
is usually how it works first three
years what they call I paid my dues they
made $50 to $100,000 a month month I
made $1,000 a month good deal
no uh but that eventually ended and
eventually I went on my own meaning I
became my own
broker
in July of
2001 July of 2001 everyone knows what
happened in September of 2001 September
11th of 2001 was just a couple of months
after I became my own broker which means
that the little business I didn't even
have
collapsed but it was also a very good
time to start a business and that's what
I did I continued getting more and more
clients all of the people that were
losing money everywhere else it was very
easy to acquire them as clients because
I gave them hope people like to start
something new especially if they're
losing fast forward I worked very hard
but I worked the type of hard where it's
not like 9 to5 or 9 to6 or 9
to7 I started my day at 5 and I finished
my day at about 2
I came went to the city I figured that
everyone else in the office they've been
in the business for 10 years 15 years 20
years so I can't catch up to their
experience overnight because experience
is very valuable in the business but I
can't outwork everyone they work 9 to5
so that's less hours than way I can work
they work 8 hours 9 hours 10 hours okay
I'll work 20 hours and that was my logic
if I work 20 hours that means that I'll
work double as them and I'll catch up
faster now the first 6 months it didn't
actually really work out all it did is
make me go broke I didn't have any money
to eat I had to borrow a dollar from
this guy Dimitri every day so I could
have a dut and coffee I had to sneak on
a bus every day so I could get home the
bus driver kicked me out a few times
because I didn't have money on a metro
card but that was the first six months
after that thing started actually
working I made my first, then the second
month I made $5,000 and then a month
after that I made seven after that $
10,000 then a month after that another
10,000 and a month after that about 15
then a month after that
$117,000 that was my first break Break
made $177,000 in one month started
getting people's attention after that
everything changed over the next year I
made another million dollars after that
everything changed even more after that
we started printing
money and that's really what it got to
it got to a point where on a bad month
I'd make2 200,000 meaning if I just
didn't show up I decided to work once a
month once a month once twice a month
show up to the office I'd always be in
the office but I'd never actually you
know had people do my my job i' still
make $200,000 if I really wanted to work
on May of 2006 I made .6
million so imagine a 20-some year old
little
kid just got a out of diapers a few
years
before is making millions of dollars and
doesn't know right left or anything else
I had some life experience had some nice
things to say and so on and so forth but
in reality I was still in my 20s still
knew nothing but I was convinced I knew
everything just like everyone
else
now
again Shalom was one of the most
important
m rabis in the history of am most people
don't know who he is if you're in the
American world but if you're Israeli you
should know who he is
and he used to say in some of his
lectures like who is like a hero who's a
man who's man enough to do
chuva now a lot of people always thought
this is just like his own
language his own thing his own saying
his own idea what does it mean who's man
enough to be a to do chuva what's what
would you have to be such a man to do
chuva why do you have to be such a hero
to do CH but the reality is it's
actually a in not exactly in those words
but very similar it
says it says who is a man and will never
see death and will rescue his soul from
the grasp of which is G in so many words
the sages explained to us is who's man
enough to save his own how to do chuva
just like ra used to say who's man
enough to do chuva deceive himself and G
and will live
forever now most of us don't like to
hear such things we don't like to hear
about Gom we don't like to hear about
hard things we don't like to hear about
cancer we don't like to hear about bad
things but bad things happen and
yesterday I had a sh in um Far Rock Away
was a nice young woman that uh after
this year we had questions and answers
and so on and uh
she told me listen you know I heard
enough times that you have to be modish
you have to be modish you have to be
modish but it's annoying already it's
annoying already I don't want to hear it
anymore I said uh you're right it is
annoying it is annoying but I have to
ask you question if let's say for
example you had a favorite candy had a
favorite
candy and I showed you the candy candy
was on the
table delicious candy you've been
waiting for this candy for two years and
finally you see the cand on a table and
you're about to go take it and eat it
but I know something you don't the candy
is full of
poison now I know if I tell you it's
full of poison you're going to be really
upset why because you've been waiting
for this candy for two
years you're going to be really upset
you may even start crying but your
favorite candy all you've been doing for
two years is thinking about this
candy so if I don't if I tell you I'm
going to ruin the whole the whole thing
for
you so would you prefer me not to tell
you
because if I tell you I'm going to ruin
the whole thing for you you're not going
to be able to eat the candy but if I
don't tell you you eat the candy and
what's going to happen when you eat
poison you die to which
one same
price which one do you
pick and that is the difference between
Emit and the emit the truth
hurts why because we've all been
planning to live she we've all been
planning to live our lifestyle without
anyone getting in getting in our way
we've all been convinced that whatever
we're doing is fine we have nothing to
change you go to people that are
religious you go to people that are
secular you ask them what do you think
you need to change anything he says I'm
perfect you ask his wife she says he has
to change
everything you ask him about his wife he
says she has to change everything she
has to change everybody has to change
everything but you tell about yourself
no one has to change anything well
convinced that our she is AIT when
someone comes and tells you the Amit
it's
painful not all of us wanted to hear it
now the problem is is that in today's
age the leaders we have the rabbis the
speakers also know this story they also
know that you like the sh I like the I
like lies you like lies everyone wants
to live a lie no one wants to be told
what to do
who likes to be told what to do no one
not even the little kids like to be told
what no one everyone wants to do
whatever they want no one wants to be
told how to dress no one wants to be
told what to eat no one likes to do to
be told to what to do so the rabbis also
know this and they figured listen if I
tell people the truth they're probably
going to fire
me because if I tell them they have to
keep Shabbat and stop driving they're
probably going to fire me if I tell them
that they can't eat at every restaurant
that's uh that says it's
kosher they're probably going to fire me
if I start telling them that their wives
are technically according to the Torah
not modest and they have to take off the
wig and they have to start putting on
clothes and start showing the world what
they look like naked they're going to
probably fire me so the rabbis and the
speakers learn this and they realize
listen it's survival of the fittest if I
tell them the truth they're going to
fire me then my kids are not going to
have anywhere to go to school they're
not going to have anything to eat
they're not going to have anything
anywhere to sleep so I have to protect
myself so what happens they became part
of the sh
unfortunately and they stopped telling
people the
truth this unfortunately is one of the
biggest one of the biggest disasters in
Jewish history but it's not the first
time that it happened it's been
happening
since Shabbat page 54
a it says that changed the there was a
decree on to punish the wicked and save
The Righteous the people that were
keeping Shabbat keeping learning and so
on save them the
people going out with non-jews eating
nonos all that destroy them with the
mdash but then for the first time in
history hasem changed the decree from
positive to negative
why came to Hashem and said Hashem why
are you saving these ones and not these
ones these are and these are he says why
you saying
the why you saying the they filled the
whole Tor they learned Tor from day and
night they kept Shabbat they kept kosher
their wife's a kosher he's a kosher
everything is kosher they even have a
kosher stamp on them everything is good
they have a beard reaches the floor
everything is good what's wrong he says
yes but they knew the truth and they
didn't tell anybody else
they knew that you have to keep Shabbat
they didn't tell the they knew that you
can't go out with the non-jew they
didn't tell the they knew the truth but
they never shared it with anybody else
because they were scared to get fired
hasem says thear thear says hasem says
you're right punish them first not only
punish them kill them first before
the before him why it's his fault it's
the religious guy's fault why because
the the secular guy is never going to do
chuva without the religious guy doing
chuva first because no one's going to
tell the secular guy the same thing is
happening
today our leaders today are scared to
tell you the truth because they're
scared that if they tell you the truth
you're going to stop donating you're
gonna fire them you're not going to
welcome them into your good news is I
don't really care and the reason why is
because I care more about your than I
care about your money not that I have
any money I lost all of it but I still
care less and the reason is because I
had a lot of it and by now I know it's
worthless and this is
why after I made over $20
million I thought that I was on top of
the world I thought that I will probably
never have to work hard for the rest of
my
life and I thought that Bill Gates
should start being worried because I'm
about to take his
place if I already made $20 million by
the time I'm in my mid
20s God only helped Bill Gates by the
time I'm 40 he's going to work for me
that was my mind I was going to conquer
the world
but it came to Judaism though I was
selective not like my job my job I did
whatever I had to do to survive I was
honest I was ambitious I never cheated I
never lied I never did anything wrong
and I was very generous with people so
when it came to work I follow the system
came to Judaism when it came to Hashem I
picked and chose whatever I wanted so
someone said you can't work on Shabbat I
said okay I won't work on Shabbat I'll
go to casino instead
instead of going instead of going to
work I'm not going to work I'll go play
poker I likeed poker I was good at
math I'm not working makes sense no to a
secular person makes all the sense in
the
world50 $50,000 on a
table they start a table for
me they said you have to eat kosher I
said okay so I'll eat kosher at home
when I'm not home I'll eat uh not meat
so I'll go to the non kosher restaurant
but I won't eat the meat and I won't
eat you know any of the uh shrimps I'll
just eat uh pasta and salads and
pizza what's wrong with pasta and salad
and pizza from the non koser guy why you
racist you're racist what's wrong with
you guys little do I know that the the
actual sauce inside your pizza your non
kosher pizza the sauce has meat in it
that's that's the dis distinguishing
taste between different sauces by the
way so the non kosher pizza is not only
non kosher because the cheese is not
Kosher but because the sauce is not
koser and in fact the cheese itself the
reason why when you go to the
supermarket you see in a regular
Supermarket not a Kosher Supermarket
regular Supermarket you see there's I
don't know three four five six different
cheeses that are Kosher and 300 that are
not
Kosher why well they have like a corner
on the market they know how to make
cheese better than us as a matter of
fact no one makes better cheese than
than Jews if you go to Isel you go to
the supermarket they have an entire a of
cheese there's no better cheese in the
world than Jewish
cheese but in America and the Western
World in general you only have three
four five companies that actually reach
the market but the go 300 different ways
why because they have the ability to use
all ingredients that we're not allowed
to use and the way they distinguish The
Taste in their cheese is by different
type of meat
different type of meat that they mix
with the cheese so when you eat non
kosher cheese not only you eating non
kosher something Dairy but you're also
eating milk and meat at the same time I
didn't know
this so I picked and choose different
laws because I thought that if I go to
be a couple times a year for Yip
everything is going to be fine every is
going to forgive
me as long as I give that's the number
one mitvah according to the rabbis that
would come to my office three or four
times a
week they would say listen number one
thing in this generation is gift I said
no problem I'm good at this how
much how much oh I need 2500 for my
mortgage check how much more I need
another 2500 for somebody else's more
check and I would give the money why for
me it was like
paper not because I had a lot because I
never had value for it I never cared
about it it's not my tun it's not my T
some people love money like it's God me
I care less about it it I don't know
just that's my it's the way hasm created
me so when I had a lot of it it was easy
for me to give it to people so the guy
said I'm going to be aad if I give money
I give
money t people need money need money
anyone need anything they come to my
office they get a check usually they
start giving me their problems because
you have to convince somebody to give
you money I just tell them how much does
your problem
cost whatever your problem is just save
me the time I know it's a story it's a
half hour it's an hour it's night just
how much does it cost why because every
hour of mine cost
$3,200 every hour I work I make $3,200
just to exist so if you're going to take
an hour and your problem is going to
cost me only 2,000 I'd rather just give
you a 2,000 instead of an
hour get the math so that was my
mentality you pick and choose what you
want somebody tells you is number one
that's what you
do now Hashem had different
plans hashem's plans were quite
different one day after made a ton of
money in a relatively short period of
time in
2006 I decided that you know what I want
to have a surgery I want to fix my body
a little bit there was something that
was annoying me called hemorrhoids which
2third out of all men have or all people
have it's not really a real problem just
was annoying me twice a year so I said
let me have a surgery and a surgery
according to the best doctors that I was
going to said it's a surgery that's just
going to disturb you for maybe 2 3 days
you'll be uncomfortable which in our
language means you'll be in pain um and
uh you'll be back to work on Monday I
said no problem I went I had the surgery
I woke up out of the surgery different
how different I started screaming and
yelling and screaming and yelling and
asking everybody to kill me because now
something happened during a surgery they
cut some type of nerve in my body that
changed the makeup of my body to the
point where everything Hurt Now by
everything I don't mean like when you
have a headache or when you have a
toothache you have a toothache and it
seems like your leg hurts too but it
really doesn't no that's not what I mean
what I mean is like they took a dagger
and they started cutting my body up
while connecting it to electricity and
it didn't stop and that's how much it
hurt and this pain continued for 62
days for 62 days the most amount of
consective sleep that I was able to get
after eating about 30 to 40 pink Killers
is 15 minutes now once you stop sleeping
for so long you start losing your mind
and your body starts failing you start
peeing blood you your eyes start
bleeding your ears start bleeding a lot
of fun things you start seeing life a
little
different you start valuing money
less you start finding out that none of
your friends actually exist they're all
imaginary friends they all
disappear everything changes your
perspective on life
changes and that was my first big wake
up call I had a surgery everything went
wrong and now all I wanted to do was I
wanted to live with without money it
didn't make a
difference after those two months I
thought that life was going to get back
to itself I was still on painkillers I
was still in pain but nowhere near the
same and I went back to work I went back
to making money I went back to my life
but I started reflecting a little bit
more
now at this point I still have no idea
that my life is wrong I just think that
I have to double check certain
things so I
buy I get one made in takes about a year
big mitvah ton of money I figured this
is going to be good didn't really work
out so much because nine months later I
had a
surgery because one day I wake up with a
pain in my leg so much that I can't walk
I go to the emergency room and they tell
me that I have an infection between the
muscle of the the rectal area and the
leg that's so big that's internal that
if I would have waited another hour or
two it would have exploded went into my
blood system and I would have died on
the
spot so I was very lucky to show up on
time and I said we have to have an
emergency surgery and this surgery is
much much worse than your first one
sir so now instead of being in pain for
62 days and at home instead I'm in the
Intensive care unit for almost a month
you know next to the people that are
dying next to those guys one guy died
another guy died everybody's dying I was
the guy actually
survived pressing the morphine button
like like is it's only reflex that's
still
working so after that fun
experience I figured okay strike
two now we're going to go back this time
we're going to do it 6 months later I'm
back at the Intensive Care Unit another
surgery
another infection in a completely
different area not connected to the
first okay fine another month in the
hospital we recover we leave go back to
life right three months later we're back
there oh you're they know me by first
name by now your room is right over
here I'm back in the hospital another
surgery I leave a month later I'm back
and then it gets to a point where it's
every
month and then eventually it's every
week and that was my
life and this
continues for seven years for seven
years my body continues to fail in every
way
imaginable to a point where I'm in pain
24 hours a day but now I'm not talking
about pain like your head hurts I'm
talking about pain where it's
uncomfortable to be next to me not
uncomfortable to be me me it's
it's needless to say it's uncomfortable
for you to be next to me because I'm
constantly screaming and yelling and ow
and oo and after a while it's annoying
even though you feel bad for the guy
after a while it's annoying to hear
somebody screaming all day I know I was
next to other Intensive Care Unit guys
it was very annoying to hear them scream
all day so after a while it's
uncomfortable especially with the faces
and the blood and it this it's it's a
nightmare so this forced me to also
become a little bit more secluded I
didn't really want see people much my
business started going to
nothing and incidentally the market
crashed the 2008 crashed crashed along
the way my net worth crashed my friends
crashed my life crashed everything
crashed as miraculous as it was to make
all the money it was a bigger Miracle
losing all of
it but then one day I got to a point
where I realized that
it's really not worth
living in pain 24 hours a day for what
just to be in pain again
tomorrow so I decided you know what
maybe maybe it's time for me to leave
the
world now
hasem loves you more than you love
yourself and the sages promise US that
he's not going to give you a test that
you can't
handle that's what he said he's not
going to give you a test that you can't
handle so as soon as I got to the point
where I couldn't handle the test anymore
that's when Hashem got involved but to a
point where it was obvious even to
me so one day I decided to call my
mom which was the first time I called
her in a while and she's crying on the
other side of the phone and she's
telling me talk to him talk to him and I
said to who and why are you crying and
why is this guy making you crying if you
want me to talk to him he says talk to a
fry he said who's a
fry who's aim why is he crying why is he
making you cry this aim says aim is your
cousin he's in Israel he's he knows tah
I said okay great so as long as you stop
crying tell him to call me I'll talk to
anybody it's the worst thing in the
world to hear him mom
cry so he calls me and I didn't know who
Ephraim was when we left Israel he was
still a baby was much younger than I
am
and I said fine you want to call me call
me so he called me I've heard from a lot
of religious people at least two or
three of them would show up to my office
every week and every single one of them
never ever told me that I have to change
never told me I have to keep Shabbat
never told me that I have to marry a
Jewish woman never told me that it's a
real problem that my wife was not Jewish
never told me that it's a problem that I
just created my own religion all they
told me is that I have to
give why because we as a people have
conditioned our rabbi
to not tell us the truth because as soon
as they tell us the truth we kick them
out as soon as they we tell them the
truth ah no no you're making that up
that's your own thing that's a you're
you're this you start calling them names
you start doing all these different
types of things so the rabbis are
playing
scared but uh in the in in the poker
world one of the things that makes
people good at gambling is when they
have no
fear and they way capitalize on it is by
capitalizing on people that are scared
they're scared to lose the money this is
what makes rich people really good Gamul
it's not because they're smart it's
because they're not scared of losing the
money it's also what makes the
Palestinians very good
terrorists they're not scared of
dying so even if you shoot them it's
good for them they're celebrating even
more that's why you can't beat them that
way so now when you go
to work every day and a follows you
every day and every day he's telling you
the same thing the
one nothing else maybe once in a while
do you feel like you're doing fine and
then one day this guy from y calls you
and he starts telling you you're not
doing fine but he doesn't start off
right away he starts giving me a few
stories we have a very interesting
conversation for an hour and 40 minutes
I ask him a question he tells me that
the same question was asked by some Sage
300 years ago or 500 years ago or a
thousand years
ago and he tells me the page number and
the book name and all these wonderful
things and we have this conversation
then the next week at the same time on
Thursday at 4:00 we have another
conversation for three hours and the
next Thursday 5 hours and the next
Thursday seven hours and every week this
continues and my life starts to change
and the reason why is because For the
first time in my life I started
realizing that I'm in
debt but it's not to the IRS it's not to
the banks
it's not to any friends it's not to any
family I'm in debt to
God he brought me to the world and I've
been treating him like as if he owes me
something instead of I owe him
something and that was the first big
wake the second big wakeup call for me
when I started realizing that my life is
upside down and all God's trying to do
is wake me up so I started learning with
him and then I started learning on my
own and I started realizing that the tor
is not just a Harry Potter
book it's not just an elective as much
as we would all like to treat the Torah
as something that's
nice I started realizing that Torah is
not like
that in the book of
Jeremiah Hashem tells the prophet to
tell
is my people have committed two evils
they've forsaken me the source of Living
Water to dig for themselves
sisters broken sisters that cannot hold
water this is in the book of Jeremiah
chapter 2
verse3 tells the prophet go
tell that they are Bim the
traitors why not
only did they not worship me they didn't
do they didn't do
they didn't do Mas they didn't keep
Shabbat they didn't keep not only didn't
keep the mitv it's not only that that's
already enough but instead they replaced
me with something else they replaced me
the source of all water the source of
all of all life with what with
their with their nothing what's
the very few Jews worship idols today so
what's what's
now in a couple of weeks we're all going
to celebrate
PES the story of PES begins with the
Exodus begins
with how hasem put the 10 plagues
destroyed the biggest civilization in
history took the Egyptians that were
much bigger than the Americans the
Chinese and the Russians all put
together and destroyed them made the
slaves the the master and the and the
master the
servant first and last time in history
that such a thing happened and then he
took us out of Egypt we split he split
the sea for us and we got to mount saai
now Mount saai which was the culmination
of all of it it was Matan
Tora now the Paras that we get the Torah
is called what
Paras so the question is if
the number one
event
is why isn't
called why is
it if we got the
Tor every other
par is named basically after the main
event of the
Paras every par
and so on and so forth who's the main
character in The what's the main thing
if it's t call
it we receive the Tor why is it
called
because is the one that connects the
beginning the middle and the end of this
point at the beginning of the sh
beginning of the sh I asked you
if you were born not
Jewish would you
convert and most people will answer the
honest answer which is
no that's the honest answer some say yes
because they like to think that they
would be so righteous as a gentile as
they would want to be a Jew but the
reality is
no and the reason is is because most of
us don't even like being Jewish even
though we're already
Jewish we look at the Torah as an
obligation we look at the Torah as a
respons ability we look at T as
something that's restricting
us like you got us to assure and you
want us to
listen you can't got us to the Beet and
you want us to give you should give us
for
coming you should give us money for
coming you got us to learn and you want
us to remember what we
learned we look at the Tora is like come
on no it's like it's enough already that
we're listening you want us to do
also is enough
but starts with the most important thing
in the
entire heard what did he hear he heard
about the Miracles that happened to is
he heard about what happened in MIT he
heard of what happened with yamu he
heard about what happened with am
he heard and that was enough for
him it was enough for him he heard what
did for is and for him that's it that
was enough I'm leaving my Pope job
$100,000 a month I'm leaving it I'm
going to become a Jew with no money with
no family with no nothing I'm going to
become a Jew that's it I'm finished he
gave up
everything that's it that was
it at the moment of truth
it heard the truth and he said it's time
to
change I've tried every a there
is whether it's the idols or it's the
oceans or it's money or it's fame or
it's fortune or it's women or it's man
whatever he tried
everything he heard about the God of
Israel he says the god of Israel
punishes measure for
measure because just like he punished
the Egyptians with the ocean I realized
that he could punish with anything why
if he punished the Egyptians with he
just killed them just like some uh some
hurricane came and killed all the
Egyptians it could be a natural event
but the fact that he killed them with
the water that shows that he's punishing
measure for measure meaning that he's
also in control of the water he's also
in control of everything else because
they killed am with water they threw the
babies into the water he's killing them
with water they didn't let us go into
the mik he made their water into blood
they didn't let us take showers he made
their all their things smell with the
frogs every single thing that every way
that he punished them was measur for
measure he says if AEM not only knows
about all the things that the Egyptians
did to the Jews but he's actually
punishing them with those same things
that means he's in control of
everything I've heard enough I've heard
he's the god of Israel he's AIT that's
said I'm leaving
everything so did something most of us
are not willing to do it said I'm
leaving money I'm leaving power I'm
leaving idolatry and I'm going to become
a
Jew I'm going to become one of the
persecuted
people now why did get such a
merit why did get such a merit to be not
only have the to do chv the ramb says at
the end of days before mashia comes you
have to have to do chv not everybody's
do the says when Masia comes not
everybody's going to be
happy why most people are going to
die bottom line why most people are not
going to do CH and the r gives a
commentary he says why you have to have
you have to have Merit to do chuva not
just because you're a Jew you're gonna
do chuva not just because you came to
You're Gonna Do chuva you have to have
to actually hear the truth and do it
many of us hear the truth for 20 years
we still don't want to do
it we hear it
now heard it one time that was enough
why did he have such a
merit we read it just a few months ago
in puim puim you guys all celebrate puim
the Customs those everybody pretends to
be something else the Jews pretend to be
go the go pretend to be Jews it's all
fun
now in we
have on we read and for the first time
in the entire T we have the word Yi the
word Jew you're not going to find the
word Yi in the entire Five Books of
Moses not once is there a word Yi Jew is
not once in the Torah but in the T
you'll find it still so the asked why
was called the
first
why
because M was proud to be a Jew and he
went against idolatry he went against a
which means that the definition of a Jew
is not just someone that
says and gives once in a while it's
someone that fights against anything
that's against hem number one being
a if you all remember the mid that we
all heard was one of the three Servants
of had three servants he had he had and
when he asked them inph he asked them
what should we do with these with this
what should we do with
them let's let's fool them into working
for us what do we do with them bam said
let's kill them let's killed him his
punishment was is killed him
back y job said no leave them alone you
know it's don't do anything he didn't
want to say much his punishment was
hasem gave him a lot of a lot of pain
Book of Job is full of he didn't say
much he didn't defend is he says you
don't speak when the time to speak I'll
punish
you on the other
hand stood up for the truth even though
he didn't really know the god of Israel
yet he knew that parau was not God
even though par said he was God he knew
knew is not God and he told him listen
at the very least you should be grateful
for this why they're the ones that made
you all the money yadik from the
previous generation he's the one that
put you on the map he built your stock
market he built your this commodity
Market he built your this he built your
this why are you going against them
for he went against
a for that he got the for that he got
the
because he was even though we didn't
know the entire truth he knew that
there's a truth in the world when he
heard the truth of when he heard the god
of Israel he realized okay that's enough
for me so
this
this is
someone that had a lot of Merit to such
an extent that his par that's named
after him is when we have the Highlight
the number one highlight in the entire
Torah which is mat
T so we should listen to
him was so
big that even mosenu learned from
him after he came to mount
saai he told Moshe listen Moshe you're
the judge you're the jury you're
everything everybody's coming to you and
asking you for
advice it's not going it's not a good
plan you have to build yourself a court
system
a court system with judges a court
system with lawyers a court system with
different things
okay this is what by the way how our
civil court system began even till this
day Supreme Court and regular court and
so on and so
forth so Moshe listened to him he says
okay so who's going to run this court he
says you're going to have to have
special people be the judges of this
court what are these people he says they
have to
be he says these people have to be
accomplished people meaning people with
a little bit of money so you can't buy
them
out people that have they're not going
to sell out just because uh you know of
somebody's money they're afraid of God
God's Gonna punish them and meaning that
[Music]
even even if the Adit is against
themselves even if their daughter is the
one they have to accuse even if their
son is the one that's going to go to
jail they're going to stand for it why
it's the emit that's the emit emit is
one there's one emit there's no two
emits there's only one truth there's
never two truth there's no your truth
and my truth and somewhere in between is
the real truth there's one emit if we
have two different truth that means one
of us is wrong there's no two so he
says so they have have to be successful
they have to
have they have to be they'll stand up
for the truth and last but not least
they have to hate
money what does that have to do with
anything if it's people that are
successful you could say listen if
they're successful no one's going to buy
them out and bribe the jury and bribe
the judge makes
sense if it's same concept if he has you
can't you don't even bother bribing him
why cuz he's afraid of God more than
he's afraid of your
checkbook if it's somebody that's a is
even if he doesn't have any money he
stands up for the truth even when it
hurts so you can't bribe him so why does
he also have to hate
money why does he always also have to
hate money now the reality is if you
actually go on Fast Forward into
this it says
heard the voice of his father-in-law V
and he did everything he
said and Moshe heard everything he said
and he found and he got who successful
people wait a minute what about the is
what about the person that hates money
what about the
person says there was nobody like that
all he had is successful people all he
had is people with money no one was is
yet no one was a somebody that hat money
nobody had yet even though we're Mount
still we didn't have
yet so now the question is why is it
that hating
money was the key ingredient to all of
it so the that I had some time
ago is
that if somebody is
successful it's it doesn't necessarily
mean that they're going to
have so that already disqualifies
them if
somebody's it doesn't mean they're
successful there's plenty of people that
have at least we hope so but they don't
have any
money if somebody's a is again same
thing they probably may not have any
money they may have or they may be their
own but their is wrong their is wrong me
is really
false but if
somebody if somebody hates money he must
be all of
them he must be all of
them
why because you don't get to a level of
hating
materialism without being successful at
least once in your life and it doesn't
necessarily mean materially Successful
it also means spiritually successful
you've learned Torah
you don't get to hate materialism unless
you have because once you have you
realize that AEM is everything if he's
everything everything else means
nothing as soon as you give power to
anything in the world whether it's money
that you have or money that you don't
have the girl that you have or the girl
that you want the husband that you have
or the husband that you wished for the
job that you want or the job that you
wished for all of these different things
that we all stress over over day and
night the sages explain to us as soon as
you stress about anything you
immediately make that thing
your why because you have now given
power to something different than
God as soon as you're worried about
money you're thinking money is more
powerful than God money is separate from
God God built the world he spent all of
his money now he's broke you have to
work on your own you're on your own
buddy he spent all of his money on
because everybody ruined the world you
had to build it all over again it was an
unnecessary expense but what are you
going to do now you're stuck working he
spent all the money now you have to work
overtime 8 billion people in the world
20 million of them approximately are
Jews but you can't find a z why I don't
know hasem hem hasem made a mistake
somewhere so I have to go find her in
clubs I have to go find her in you know
in in prostitution houses over there
that's why I have to find a girl you
want to find nice Jewish girl in a club
har and the 87 boyfriend she had in her
life she wants to find a guy I want to
find a guy okay what kind of car does he
have want you date the car instead of
the
guy take the car for a ride see if you
like the car marry the
guy this is our
mistake why we gave something else power
we gave money power we gave the girl
power we gave the guy power we gave
something outside of God power
the reason
why is because we weren't un we didn't
stand up for the truth when we saw
it and the reason why we didn't stand up
for the truth is either because we
didn't know
it because no one told us or simply
because we didn't care
enough but either way that the outcome
is you cannot be a son
a person that hates
materialism without these three
different ingredients now what is this
have to do with us other than
everything is that at the end of the
Paras after we got the Ten Commandments
the same par we got to we got the Ten
Commandments now after we got the Ten
Commandments Ten Commandments says I'm
the god of that took you out of Egypt
don't have any other God don't use my
name in vain all these wonderful things
observe Shabbat honor your parents don't
steal don't murder and so on and so
forth 10 wonderful
Commandments and Hashem repeats these
Commandments to
us and after he finishes telling us all
the Commandments we have this whole par
starts converts he tells
mosenu build a bed with different judges
that have these character traits they're
because they
have Moshe says I don't have anybody
that has all these qualities I only have
successful people okay let's just put
them
there we get the Ten Commandments we get
the Tora the oral T the written T all of
this is repeated and the world seems
like it's complete no hem gives us a
gives us a prophecy of today the day of
mssiah
the end of days and after all of this
Torah that we
got it
says hasem says to
Moses go say to the children of Israel
you have seen that I have spoken to you
from Heaven meaning there's nobody here
that says oh no no I didn't hear
anything there's millions of people at
Mount sa no one is saying by the way
this book says that God spoke to us I
didn't hear anything meaning this is a
testimony that everyone is there heard
the the voice of God saw the voice of
God because it
says means you saw my voice meaning that
every time God spoke words of his words
were actually imprinted in the
sky so everybody agrees you heard okay
great and then he reminds them of one of
The Commandments What what is
it now you've just told us all Ten
Commandments but then hasem says you
just remind you I just gave you the Ten
Commandments none of you are disagreeing
right just make sure don't make yourself
a god of money or a god of
gold don't make for
yourself why didn't he pick any of the
other Ten Commandments
why didn't he pick any of the other
613 that we have the entire why didn't
he say by the way you heard all
everything I said good just don't forget
don't stop keep Shabbat by the way marry
Jewish by the way keep kosher by the way
be modest by the way any number of mitv
that we have why did he remind us of one
mitvah in the entire tah you gave us the
Ten Commandments but now you're telling
us hey by the way don't make yourself a
god of money and a god of
gold because this verse is not just for
this people this verse is for us this
verse is telling us before the mashia
comes you want to do cha it has to start
with money it has to start with
materialism why because that's the
idolatry of all
generations the god of money and the god
of gold is the is the aod we've had for
the last 3,000 years it's an aod it's an
idol worship that hasn't left
us it's an that hasn't left us so the
question is the second
question that we have to ask
ourselves is how much are you willing to
sell God out
for how much is your god
worth every single person has to ask
thems this question
seriously now you have
two two people are learning to come come
come it's
fine they'll put you in the camera too
it's
fine the question you have to ask
yourself is how much is God worth to you
how much is he worth to you what would
you sell them
for now of course you're all going to
say no
Shalom and all right great how much you
going to sell him
forit how much you going to sell him for
everybody keep Shabbat I'm assuming or
at least most of us keep Shabbat
hopefully
said somebody you keep Shabbat right
keep Shabbat
okay nobody answers on so I'm going to
go on the one that I know for sure okay
so if I gave you
$1,000 $1,000 cash $20 bills $100 bills
whatever you want would you drive on
Shabbat no right okay so at the very
least you know God's worth a thousand
bucks there
now if I ask the question I'm not going
to ask I'm not going to ask but if I ask
the question if I give you a million
dollars I don't have but if I had and I
put it with me in my bag over there that
has everything except the
camera if I give you a million dollars
cash I put on a table instead ofes I put
a million dollar cash would you drive in
Shabbat now you have to start thinking
about
it huh oh I give 10% my yeah I give 10%
my you're making MIT out of this million
dollars now we have an answer for our
question now we have an answer to our
question and the reality is it's
sad the reality it's
sad because when God gives you every
single penny you have in your pocket and
in the bank account that you know of and
the one that you're hiding from the
IRS when the God's giving you the
Bitcoins that you want and the ones that
you already have when the God has giving
you the car the house the wife the kids
that the vision the molecules the
stakes the synagogues the community and
the freedom you have to be a
Jew for the first time in history you're
allowed to be a Jew without people
killing you for the first time in
history the Christians are pretending to
be
Jews they called Messianic Judaism or
Jews for Jesus
for the first time in history if you
want to learn a book any book
sees all you got to do is press a button
and it arrives on your phone or it
arrives at your house whichever one you
want if you just rewind a 100 years
we're not even talking about a thousand
years ago mosenu and his brother no no
we're talking about hundred years ago if
you wanted to learn a sees you had to
leave the city to go to some rich guy's
house that has the book book and stay in
his house like as a guest for a month
two months three months however long it
took you to finish the
book that's how you learn
t for 3,300 years that's how we learned
tah we went to different towns we left
the family we left the kids we left the
work we left everything why there's a
book this guy has three weeks away
there's a book this guy has six months
away I have to walk six months go learn
the book for two months and come back
six months how we're going to eat that's
your problem I have to go learn toah
I left you a cow milk
it I left you a cow and two kids use the
kids to Milk The Cow
finished that's how we learned
Tora and the wife was 100% on board she
says you're right I have two kids
they're going to Milk The Cow we have
the
cow you see some of the letters that the
sent to their wives to their wives
they'd ask them how are you how are the
kids how's the cow the they ask them
how's the cow doing
it's like asking how's the business
how's the cow doing well if I have the
cow if the cow's doing good I know
you're still eating if the cow's not
doing good I got to come back home how's
the cow
doing meaning he went somewhere for six
months to go learn a
book and it was no problem why he was
chasing the emit he was chasing the
truth even if the truth cost him six
months of his life or a year of his life
or seven years of his life it didn't
make a difference why he heard the truth
like I'm going to chase the
truth we have t in our
pockets and still you have to beg people
to come still you have to beg people to
keep Shabbat still you have to ask the
question twice how much does God
actually worth in your in your in your
mind why because we don't know we don't
know the truth
yet once you start learning the truth
you realize that the truth is very very
very different than what we've learned
our entire life first and
foremost when I started learning T I
realized that the Torah is not
optional it's not optional whether
you're a Jew or you're not a Jew it's
not
optional the rambam says
in that a
non-jew that keeps the laws of Noah the
seven laws of Noah plus all of
the ethical laws of the Torah like
honoring your parents and so on which is
somewhere around 50 different
mitv if he if he does he fulfills those
mitv because God said
so then he's
considered one of the wise people among
the Nations and he
Hasa but if the same guy the same
non-jew keeps the same laws he doesn't
murder he doesn't steal he doesn't eat
an animal while it's still alive he has
a court system and all the things all of
the MIT he keeps them but not because
God said so simply because it makes
sense makes sense not to murder it makes
sense not to steal it makes sense not to
uh be a homosexual if you're normal it
makes sense to do all these things makes
sense no makes
sense so he keeps it because it makes
sense the rambam says not only does he
not
have but he's actually
considered one of the stupidest people
in the world why you did all the work
and you're not going to get paid for
it you kept all the mitv but for the
wrong reason you kept them because you
like it you kept it because it makes
sense to you for that there's no reward
which means means that the Torah is not
optional for the
go they have to follow it and whoever
doesn't will be
punished needless
to needless to say is the ra says inat
900 years ago Chapter 30 last Al a Jude
that violat Shabbat a Jude that drives
on Shabbat smokes a cigarette on Shabbat
watches television Shabbat plays with
their phone on
Shabbat works on Shabbat plays with
money on Shabbat talks about money on
Shabbat unless it has to do with a
mitvah he's not allowed meaning if he's
talking about some real estate deal that
he's going to invest in or invested in
or stock market or Bitcoin or schmitcoin
or this coin or that coin or
everything's going to go to zero anyway
if he talks about any of that stuff he's
a Shabbat according to the r he's
considered 100% an idol worshipper
meaning
if he comes to your house for K and you
have
a you have uncooked wine one of the
expensive wines usually they're more
than
$20 and you open the wine for K and he
wants to see what kind of wine you get
so he takes the wine he picks it up you
know just people pick up the wine they
want to see what's behind it what kind
of wine how much alcohol is it good is
it bad and so on they're like everybody
became a wine connoisseur these days
they drank three cups of wine at the
club they think they're wine
connoisseurs but anyway he looks at the
wine the wine if the wine is open the
wine at that point is no longer allowed
for you to drink why an idol worshipper
touched that wine but he's a Jew he's my
brother he's my cousin he's my sister
he's whatever he is doesn't make a
difference if he's aat according to hem
not to me according to hem he's
considered 100% an idol
worshipper what else does it
mean one of the worst things that you
can possibly do in Judaism to such an
extent that the gar says if you do this
not only do you not havea but you have
eternal suffering to go along with it
too what is it something simple charging
another Jew interest on loans one of
your friends came to you says listen I
have a business I have a this I have a
that whatever they have I need a loan
how much I need $10,000 you happen to
have the money he's like oh no problem
$110,000 only 36% interest only only 36%
interest monthly only good deal the
guy's desperate me scan you charge him
interest what is he gonna do he's say no
you're the only guy that's want to lend
him any money even if you charge him 1%
interest it's the same thing I'm just
exaggerating a little bit to give you
guys a little bit of pleasure from the
joke the point is is that you charge him
interest thear says that person that
charges interest officially lost
their they have to return the interest
in order to do
Chua why they charge another
interest now what if that Jew is
aat what if that Jew viate
shabbat shalom gives the of a lifetime
it's not really though why the ra also
said it what did he say theab is also an
idol worshipper which means Idol
worshiper you could charge of Interest
as much as you want meaning if the Jew
is a charge him interest as much as you
want he's not considered Jewish
but we still don't recommend it why
don't we recommend it because what if he
does
Chua if he does cha it's meaning it's a
possibility you may have to give him
back the interest because he did CH now
point being it's a serious problem in
hashem's eyes to be an idol worshipper
which is in his eyes equivalent
to so we all understand
that left
idolatry but we on the other hand are
not willing to leave it and the reason
why is because the examples that we have
today sometimes are very
confusing I remember one of the things
that always bothered me when I would
look at religious people is
that I could never tell who's married
and who's not married on women because I
always heard at least when I grew up in
Israel who was Safari so I remember
seeing my aunt which was you know a few
a few cousins and aunts that I have that
were religious and you would know that
they're religious because they cover
their hair covered their hair with a or
something like or hat now for the first
time in my life I me I'm sure it
happened in Israel when I was a kid I
just never noticed it but for the first
time I started noticing It in America is
that the religious
people for the most part don't
wear so you can never tell who's married
and who's not why because either they
don't cover anything at
all or they cover it with a wig which in
my eyes was a joke as a secular person
forget religious as a secular person go
what do you mean so you cover hair with
your
hair that's better than your original
hair and that makes you religious and
this would be one of the excuses I would
use not to be religious I'm like they're
idiots there something there's something
wrong with them you're covering hair
with hair and that's what makes you
religious like you look like the girl I
just saw in the magazine and that's what
make
you you're holy because of this this
doesn't make any sense your religion
doesn't make any sense I'm staying
secular cuz at least I'm used my logic
in my eyes I'm like this doesn't make
any sense at least I'm not lying to
myself but again I didn't know the whole
intricate parts of it and so
on but it still never made sense to me
so once I became religious I actually
started looking into this because I
started noticing a lot more people I
moved to a Jewish community and I
started seeing this is not one or two or
three women this is pretty much the
majority of American Judaism it's a
majority of Judaism in general today
religious
Jews so I started looking into it
and I saw that this been this has been a
for over 400 years it's been a debate
between the for 400 years of whether you
are allowed to wear a wig or you're not
allowed to wig because according to the
vast majority of the sages throughout
history for the last 2,000 years you're
not allowed to wear a wig because it's
not modest even though the wigs they
were talking about look like uh your uh
your broom you were able to tell that it
was not real hair nonetheless Still They
said that
showing hair for woman is not allowed
it's not a modest thing the whole point
is to cover your hair and not hair with
hair and that was the debate that
already started 2,000 years
ago and several other
places
now about 400 years ago one p came out
and said listen I actually think that uh
this is not what the means and you can
wear wigs
and some people followed him but it
became one community and another
community and another community and
everyone started taking what he said and
exaggerated a little bit more and
exaggerate a little bit more and
exaggerate a little bit more fast
forward 400 years today women wear the
same wigs that the movie stars
wear and you can't tell who's married
you can't tell who's singing Le you
can't tell if it's her real hair you
can't tell if it's not her real
hair you actually ask the women that are
getting
wigs what's the point of the wig like
what's the ideal wig what's the best wig
says the one that looks the most real
like isn't that defeat the
purpose but this has been a debate for
400 years who am I to get in the way of
this debate bigger than I could ever be
have debated it and so on and so forth
so little old me I said listen there's
something wrong with this picture
because I
heard when I was in the business world I
did research in a lot of different
businesses that's what I did I was an
expert in research I would find
Industries companies that's what I did
for almost 20 years that's how I made
all the money it wasn't because I uh you
know I got lucky on something it was I
did research on certain things got in
before other people realized it was good
and that's how we made money so that was
my expertise at some point in my
life I did research on different
Industries and I came across the hair
industry and I found out
that most wigs come from
India and somehow this Rangel obvious
all comes from Hashem like wait a minute
I remember from the business world that
wigs come from
India and India they don't do it like a
business it's it's a way of idol worship
sh meaning that the Hindus they have
different Idols they have over 880,000
religions there a cow a rat tree a
motorcycle I'm serious they worship a
motorcycle it's a Harley-Davidson it's
tied to a tree there's a rats or a few
rats there's a few cows a cow cross the
street everybody starts bowing that
serious it's just a joke is it's it's
really serious they worship these things
I actually have pictures of this I
didn't believe it the first time either
but they worship everything that moves
everything that doesn't
move so
now I started seeing wait a minute this
whole wig thing all of the hair is
coming from
there now according to you're not
allowed to benefit from idol worship in
any way shape or form the only Mitzvah
that you can do with idol worship is
burn it destroy it it's the only thing
you could you're allowed to do with it
you're not allowed to sell it you're not
allowed to eat it you're not allowed to
wear it not do anything with it other to
destroy it that's it that's the only
Mitzvah you have the first thing that
yeshu afteru was commanded to do after
they got
to told them go burn all of the AER
trees what the trees do Mis what they uh
call you a name what they do Hashem says
oh people worship them yeah they worship
them that's not their fault the idiots
worship the tree it doesn't make a
difference their fault not their fault
it makes no difference one something was
used for idolatry it's always idolatry
there's never undoing
it once it's used for idolatry the only
mitvah is to destroy it destroy all of
these fruit trees all of these non-fruit
trees all of these trees anything that
was worshiped destroy it why because
idolatry is considered
to in English disgusting to hasem why
because you have replaced the source of
all
water with broken systemns you see you
changed exchanged everything with
nothing so now
rabai I came out and I started doing
research and I realized that it's not
just a small Market it's a multi-billion
dollar market the fashion industry in
general is $520 billion a year wigs are
somewhere between 10 to 25 billion no
one really knows either way it's a
really big Market
now if you buy a wig According to some
serious research that we did which again
like I told you was almost 20 years of
my expertise so I wasn't like a new guy
at this this is what I did if I know
something it's that it's not Torah Tor
I'm trying to know this I definitely
know if you buy a
wig it's not 99% it's 100% 100% coming
from aod
100% unless you bought it directly from
three people's heads you took cuz every
wig is three women every every wig is
three different heads it's not one head
replaces one head every wig is three
heads so unless you saw three women
shaved you shaved their head yourself oh
thank you very much Samantha thank you
very much Wilma thank you very much
whoever you are fine thank you think the
wig you put it back in your head unless
you did that which is unrealistic the
wig that you're buying from any store I
could say kosher non kosher not it's why
because no other Market in the world can
supply the wigs for the market what
synthe wig unfortunately with synthetic
wigs is that research found out that an
average of 3 to 10% of the synthetic
wigs are actually real
air meaning that even the synthetic wig
is not really synthetic and the reason
why is because there's so many men that
worship
in India that over 20 million of them
donate their hair a year 20 million of
them donate their hair a year now wigs
for the most part are long that's the
women so what are you going to do with
all these men that are donating their
hair if do something with them no one's
going to buy a wig with short hair
really most of the time you're not going
to buy a wig with a crew cut so what you
what are you going to do with this hair
so they put it in synthetic wigs they
put it in food it's called line it's in
your bread sometimes
they put it in
medicine all of the short hair is put in
different places now it's to such an
extent there's such a surplus there's so
much actual real hair from India that
they it's actually cheaper than
synthetic
wigs to the manufacturer and therefore
they fill in the synthetic wig with some
real hair so now the problem of having
over 127 pusim throughout all of
generations saying that it's not owed to
wear a wig regardless of whether it's or
not is already a problem of its own but
now because of modesty it's not modest
to wear a wig but now you have a serious
problem now you have a fact that if
you're wearing a wig it's statistically
impossible for it to be a kosher wig now
what about all these kosher wigs now you
go to most religious neighborhoods they
have uh a kosher stamp kosher stamp on
the wig this is the joke of a
lifetime this is the biggest lie in
Jewish history
and the reason why is because it's
impossible to kosher a
wig not just practically it's literally
impossible and the reason why is because
when you buy Kosher meat that means that
someone that's a Jew that's a sh Shabbat
Jew has watched the meat from beginning
to end from the time he was a cow and he
was slaughtered no bones were broken
there was no it wasn't diseased or
something like that it was slaughtered
then somebody else or maybe the same
person cut the pieces salted the meat uh
make sure all the blood came out all the
way till it got to your Butcher and uh
it looks like it's blood but it's really
not blood it's just the the coloring and
so on and so forth until it got to your
table someone watched it someone watched
that it stayed kosher along the way at
least that's the way kosher me is same
thing with the seph T somebody writes a
seph t when they bring it to the United
States they send it with a few letters
missing because a seph t
if it falls everybody has to fast so
when they send in an airplane it's an
incomplete SE because when it's
incomplete it's not considered a SE so
they could travel with it the point
being is somebody has to be with the SE
somebody has to watch it along the way
from the day they put the first letter
to the day that you read it over here
for CH someone has to watch it with
kosher wigs it's impossible and the
reason why is because the people that
are donating their hair at the temple
and the people that are selling the wigs
are two completely different worlds
they're being donated in India for free
because that's their mitvah for their
now the people that are donating it they
don't know it's being sold and they
don't care it's being sold to them it's
like they're worshiping an idol to them
it's that's what they do that's their
Mitzvah that's their whole life they've
been waiting 10 years for
this it's like somebody like somebody
finishing the sh after seven years for
them as they grew their hair for seven
years now they're donating it so now
they donated it that Temple accumulates
the hair every single day 800 900 a
th000 kilos every single day he sends it
to some to a different Factory to clean
the hair we watch through this whole
process clean the hair it's a different
place with low with low labor costs they
clean the hair from the lice and
diseases and so on and so forth then
they send it either to China or to
Brazil or some other country in Europe
either Italy or so on to reprocess it
and every time it changes country it
changes stamp so it doesn't say Made in
India it says made in China made in
Italy made in Brazil made in jenam made
in all these different places made in
all these different places it never says
Made in
India now if you I actually during the
research I asked a few people from
Brazil because most of the wigs today
they say they're Brazilian so I asked
them I mean do so many people donate
hair in Brazil the guy started laughing
at me I said why are you laughing it's
not funny it's a real serious question
he goes the Brazilian people would
rather die from starvation than sell
their hair it's just their nature they
like their beauty they're not going to
sell their hair so then I this made me
question things even more so where's the
hair coming from the hair is coming from
that originally the uh when the
um when the Indians realized
that their business could become as big
as it is they started making big deals
and they happened to make big deals with
three major businessmen in Brazil and
that's why most of the wigs come from
Brazil but either way it's not Brazilian
wigs it's not Italian wigs there's no
Italians walking around with a bald
head there's no Italian women walking
around with a bald head there's no
English women walking with a bald head
there's no French women walking around
with a bald head unless they have cancer
other than that they're not walking
around with a bald
head it's all coming from India because
even if somebody wanted to donate their
hair like say in Cambodia or in China or
any of these other places it's still not
enough to supply the market CU anyone
else in any other country would sell the
hair that would already mark up the
price of the hair that would already
make it from free to whatever it costs
meaning the price of an average wig
would go from $1,000 to
$10,000 because everybody has to make
money along the way so the reason why
wigs are still a you're able to afford
them or people are able to afford them
is because the original cost is
free and there's a lot of it there's a
lot of it so now when I started
realizing this I realized that there's
no such thing as from from birth anymore
there's no such thing as religious from
birth
anymore the reality is that
what what is telling us here is
that is existent everywhere
in the secular world most of us have a
justification to be secular what is it
money we're chasing money once I have
money then I'll do chuva once I have a
big house then I'll stop working on
Shabbat once I do this then this one we
have conditions for hem once you give me
money then I'll do whatever you want AEM
we give hhm a business proposition you
excuse me you give me money I'll do what
you
want in the secular world that's how we
justify it that's our
in a religious world it's the opposite
in a religious world it's not just KF in
a religious world we justify it with
competing with KF competing with the
Joneses competing with the people that
have KF comp competing with Hollywood
competing with everyone else but even
after you tell them listen it's a what
you have on your head all of the all the
all of the that you're doing it's not
counting why because you have
on your
head you have on your head you can't go
pray to God while you brought a
competition too you can't pray to God
when you brought it competition also you
can't read help me hem help me hem help
me he like you know what maybe I'll help
your on your head I'll help first I'll
find in a new
home and this is why I always say
there's no such thing as from from birth
anymore
so when someone asks ask you what's the
price that you're willing to pay for
AEM really the answer should be
Priceless the answer should be Priceless
it should be anything should be
literally anything anything and
everything now to get to that point
there's only one way actually there's
two
ways one way is you learn a lot of T and
you start understanding what the
significance is of being a Jew at the
very least be as proud of a Jew as the
Muslim is to be a Muslim
just like he's want to pray in the
middle of the street so should you don't
be don't be so shy when you're at the
airport next time and pray all the way
in the corner pray at your seat right
next to everybody anyone ask you any
questions just say this is what the
mashia is going to look like don't
worry he's not going to be a Muslim and
he's not going to be a Christian this is
what he's going to look with theine and
everything get used to it be proud you
have the truth not them don't pray in
the corner pray your
seat just like the Muslim praise in the
middle of of
Broadway next time somebody asks you
what do you want to eat just say kosher
why because that's what God
said next time somebody ask you when you
go on a vacation say on
Shabbat God gave me a vacation every
week next time somebody ask you what do
you want to do say I want to learn why
because that's the point of you being
here in the world
the says if you did not find a the
reason to sanctify hashem's name every
day there was no point for you to
exist if you didn't look for a reason to
do a Kem look for it didn't necessarily
succeed every day but at least try to
sanctify aem's name every day there was
no point for you to come to the world
the easiest way to sanctify his name is
by simply saying it say before you start
every sentence say before you finish
anything learn what Hashem really is
every single day with your ra with your
K with your friends instead of watching
baseball and football andb and all the
that people waste their life on at least
find out what Tor really means what's
the point of being a Jew either be a Jew
or go be a
but at least pick a side don't call
yourself a Jew if you don't want to be a
Jew and that's exactly what Hashem says
to the prophet you want to do chuva do
Chu
if you don't go worship the idols he
actually says this in the Torah go
worship the idols then stop being a 50%
Jew I'm Israeli and I'm religious in my
heart I'm religious in my heart I'm like
religious like twice a
year whenever my friends tell me to come
I'm religious you
know this mitvah mitvah I do those know
I go to all the
parties stop being a 50% Jew there's
basic level mitv we're not talking about
we're not talking about you have to
start becoming a rabbi you have to start
speaking publicly you have to start
learning toam day and night leave your
job leave everything and go to the
desert be like the Raa I'm not telling
you that there's basic level mitv we're
all obligated to
do it all starts with attaining these
basic level principles that he told us
to get first one be is is doesn't mean
go be successful no one cares about your
money especially God why he says to the
prophet hem says mine is the money mine
is the gold says hem God of Legions he
says everything is mine you think it's
your bank account it's my bank account
look at your own I gave him 20 million
then I took it back what makes you think
I'm not going to take yours a guy by the
name of AI Batista was the seventh
richest man in the world just a few
years ago $ 37 billion today he has a
negative net worth He has zero nothing
he can't pay the rent they took away his
car 37 billion just a few years ago
you're working for a lot of money maybe
hasm doesn't want you to have it what
does he want you to have he wants you to
be what's know some know some basic
purpose of why you're in this world
second thing
isain be afraid of
hem the smartest man of all all time
says praiseworthy is the man that's
always scared what is he scared of this
guy what is he scared of he's scared of
being punished he's scared of G he's
scared of hem not liking him he's scared
of hasem calling him an
enemy who's an enemy according to the
very same par same one we still haven't
gone to the rest of the tah just as par
he tells us exactly who are these
enemies he says
those lovers of mine they keep my who's
the haters those is haters who are they
the ones that don't keep
same already tells us everything he
already tells us everything so already
over here we already know where we're at
whether you're in hot water or not only
you know I don't know if you keep you
don't keep that's your problem the
reality is is that you could attain this
very easily this is very easy to get
it's called learn
mus learn mus m is character development
now you can learn like the laws and so
on from here till next year it's not
going to help you
with it's not going to help you to fear
hem why all you're going to learn to do
is how to do stuff but it's still not
going to give you a reason to do it it's
still not going to give you a reason to
change your character it's still not
going to give you a reason to be
generous to be less angry to be a better
person to be a decent human being there
are people that know a lot of they know
a lot of laws but they're
still still despicable people the ramban
calls
them despicable with the permission from
the
Tor they learn a lot of but they don't
have any they start making their own
rules we don't want people to make their
own rules we have rules from hasem
that's all we need so is learning M on a
daily basis if you want to learn it from
books send me a text I can recommend a
handful of books each one of them can
change your life every page can change
your life if you're not ready for books
watch my M series same price as this
lecture free we made it easy for you all
you got to do is press a button press a
button and just watch that's it press a
button and the book will arrive press a
button and the lecture will arrive to
learn T you don't have to travel six
months like the guys from 100 years ago
that's the that's the case against us
it's easier than ever to be a Jew no
one's killing you because of it no one's
persecuting you because of it no one's
even making fun of you because of
it and the reality is if they do you can
sue
them it's easier than ever to be a Jew
but that's why the punishment is
endless if we're not that's why the
punishment is so bad is so bad because
hem says I made it so easy for you to be
a Jew before the mhia comes and you
still chose not to do it what do you
want me to save you anyway you you
taking it for a joke what you think he a
frier what do you think hasm is one of
your boys from the bar you can treat him
when you want to come when you want to
invite him you invite him you don't want
to invite him you don't invite
him and that allows us to get to the
next point which is is is doesn't only
mean stand up for the truth is also me
means
admit the truth you heard it you saw it
the end stop with the arguments the
debates for no reason oh but what if
this but what if that enough there more
than enough proofs to know God exists
all you got to do is look in the mirror
all you got to do is look at every
single person in here you're all
miracles not just the fact that you're a
human being and that the technology
that's in your eye is more advanced than
all of the cameras that ever existed in
the entire world not just that not just
the fact that your brain of the smartest
guy and the stupidest guy makes no
difference the brain of the foolish guy
fo stupidest guy on Earth has more
wiring than all of the telecom companies
in the entire planet that ever existed
one
brain not only is that a miracle it's
actually a miracle that you're a
Jew that's the biggest miracle and the
reason
why is because there are 8 billion
people people in the world 8 billion
people in the world out of the 8 billion
there's somewhere around 20 million that
are Jews now the secret is there really
isn't 8 billion people in the world it's
something like 7.96 billion or 7.92
billion meaning that they're rounding
off 40 to 80 million to make it a round
number of 8 billion which means that the
Jews are rounding error and not even but
yet every single day you hear about a
Jew in the news every single day you
hear about a Jew story every single day
one of us is somewhere and everyone
knows in
reality you should never hear about a
Jew at all there's so few of us in
comparison to the eight billion in the
world of non-jews you should never hear
about a Jew at all the fact that you're
a Jew is a miracle of itself the fact
that there's only 2 million to 3 million
out of the 20 million that actually keep
Shabbat is a bigger Miracle meaning
that you if you keep Shabbat or you're
going to start keeping Shabbat this
Shabbat you become a statistical anomaly
meaning something
impossible the 20 million is already
impossible the actual two or three
million that keep Shabbat is even more
impossible and for those two or three
million that keep Shabbat that's what
hasm keeps the world
for the 8 billion exists for the three
billion that's the reality that's the
reality that's what he gave mat for when
you hear that truth when you hear that
Amant and it doesn't shake you you
should double check if you're
Jewish should ask your mom am I really
Jewish or you adopt me from the
neighbors if it doesn't shake you
there's something
wrong there's something wrong if
something does if it doesn't move you at
least to at least not necessarily do
complete but at least do something I at
least got to double check I got to
follow up I have more questions
something if you came and left the same
way nothing changed there's something
wrong
now if you do all of these things you
could arrive to be someone that's but is
not necessarily only someone that hates
money is someone that hates the
existence of this world and the reason
why is because he's doing
everything possible to prepare
fora because that world is eternal this
one's temporary 20 years 50 years 7
years what whatever it is however long
we're going to be here it's temporary
everyone knows it's no big secret has
nothing to do with religion everyone
dies at some point my cousin died two
years ago or a year and a half ago he
was 23 years old his father has $100
million $100 million how much is the
$100 million worth right now with his
youngest son dead absolutely
zero why he has no life anymore why cuz
his son
died he was on a scooter on a second day
of he thought that this is what you're
supposed to do on be on a scooter did he
think he was going to die that day at 23
no he didn't think he was going to die
he thought like everybody else I'm going
to live to a million or at least
120 at least 120 but maybe longer
because they're going to make more
medicine and people going to live
forever he didn't think he was going to
die none of us think we're going to die
that's why Warren Buffett and Kirk aoran
and all these billionaires still go to
work even though they're 90 years old
they're all convinced they're going to
live forever the reality is you're
not we don't know how much time we have
and that's why the r says
in there's only one way to do there's
only one way to get people to do chuv
and this is actually an this is not some
opinion this is not some oh maybe yes
maybe no it says the following in
chapter 10 5
it says therefore when one teaches
children women and most common people
one should teach them to to serve out of
fear of
God in order to receive a
reward and the next Al
says it's well known and
clear that to love hem is not possible
within a man's heart until he becomes
obsessed with it at all
times and none of of this is possible
without fear
first
so some of the things that I said may be
funny some of the things that I said may
be entertaining some of the things I
said may be
scary this is the way you do
Chua all the people that came to my
office for 15 years 15 years they came
to my office not one single person
helped me do
chuba now their math is the same as many
other
rabbis it's your problem to do chva I'll
just help them do and hopefully they'll
do chva on their own hopefully they'll
do it on his own hopefully he'll do it
on his own I'm not going to tell him
what to do I'm not going to tell him
what to do maybe he's not going to
listen but the reality is I know a
little bit of math and I know that
everything has a 50/50 chance in most
cases 50/50 chance meaning if if they
would have told me the truth there's at
least a 50% chance that I would have
listened and a 50% chance that would
have thrown them out
50/50 but they decide to make the choice
for
me they decide that I'm not going to
listen so better off not telling me
because if they tell me maybe they're
going to lose money they decided to take
away
Mya now let's just look at their math
they assume that eventually I'm going to
do chva on my own or something or this
or that so how is this supposed to work
let's say If instead of coming to my
office three times a week they only came
once they only came once a week instead
of 15 years it's only once it's only 10
years so you do the math once a week 52
weeks times 10 years is 520 times that
means you had 520 times 520
opportunities to tell me one Mitzvah
that I'm supposed to do keep
Shabbat one mitvah marry a Jew one
mitvah keep kosher one Mitzvah learn
tvah
anything they never did and that choice
almost took away
my I don't want to repeat that mistake
so that's why I'm telling you what I'm
telling you and that's why some of my sh
are similar to this some of them are
much scarier some of them are much nicer
either way it's all over the place but
it's all full of verses it's all full of
sources it's very little of my own
opinion even my own opinion has some t
in it and the reason why is because I
don't know what you know and I don't
know what you don't know what I do know
for sure is everybody has to do Chua
religious not religious everyone has
something to do everyone has something
to do some people it's with wigs some
people it's with money some people it's
with character traits some people it's
with Shabbat different people different
thing but the reality is everyone has a
lot of work to do and the one last thing
I'm going to tell you is is that the
same ramb that told us all of these that
told us all of these major things he
also said that everything that you're
going to read about in
P about all the makot all of the
terrible things that Hashem did to the
Egyptians it's going to happen
again before mhia comes the same thing
is going to happen again only this time
it's going to be
magnified so just like there was three
days of darkness when AEM killed the
Egyptians and many Jews
unfortunately at the end of times before
the Messiah comes it's going to be 15
days of
darkness and the reason why is because
he has to kill a lot more people
if we do Chua we have nothing to worry
about if we don't do Chua we have
everything to worry about any
questions a woman that has cancer the
question was a woman that has
cancer what should they wear
or either a either a scarf or a hat a
woman is supposed to cover a head with a
hat or a
scarf not hair with hair um because like
I said there's two reasons number one
she's not allowed to cover because not
modest to show hair even if it's not
really a hair and number two because of
the that we mentioned next question on
the women's section I think somebody had
a question she had you had okay how do
you get Russian wigs how do you
Russian wigs the Russian wigs that the
main source of Russian wigs is they get
it from the jails the women
jails no the women jails in Russia
there's a there's a uh custom in Russia
to go to the women jails beat them up
senseless and then shave their head and
then sell the wigs that's what they do
in Russia this was also part of our
research now the problem with the
Russian wigs is because number one it's
unethical it's unethical to to do such a
thing to to take something against
somebody's will it's considered giz it's
considered stealing but even more so the
Russian wigs are not really the market
99.999% of all the hair in the market
today is not coming from Russia even if
it's blonde even if it's blue even if
it's green even if it's anything and the
reason why is because in all of these
places whether it's Cambodia Brazil
Russia everywhere else someone is
selling the hair someone is selling the
hair and it's relatively small number so
let's say for example even if you go to
all the Russian jails you shave
everybody's head okay so let's say you
shaved heads I don't know 100,000 women
you have
now destroyed the market for the next 10
years why it takes time for the hair to
grow so now you've taken all of the hair
you could possibly take from Russia for
the next 10
years but that only supplied those
100,000 people people only 30,000 wigs
at best 30,000 wigs is one small little
market it's one small little
neighborhood so meaning that even if all
the Russian wigs were great and kosher
and was allowed to beat people up and
take their hair and everything else it
still wouldn't be enough to supply the
market because the market is a 20
billion Market there are Jews and
non-jews buying these wigs and the
reality is is that you can't verify
where the hair has come from and
according to business research that
Bloomberg did and many other research
agencies did according to as well as us
is that the only place in the world that
can supply the wigs is India because
over there 20 to 30 million people a
year donate their hair no other Market
comes close no place else can make a
market even Cambodia a lot of people
sell their hair in Cambodia for cheap
but that's I don't know maybe 3,000
people a year 10,000 people it's small
Mark small numbers no one in the world
not Russia not Cambodia not anywhere
else can provide such numbers in
magnitude like a uh like uh India so the
reason why the wig say made in uh
different countries is because people
know that if it says at this point it
used to be different at this point India
has a bad name India is a bad name it's
it's in essence you say India it's like
uh it's like in the old days if it was
good quality it was Sony if it was bad
quality was Sony
guts it's not really Sony it's like Acer
or something but it's like uh you know
deed Sony in reality it's a wig if you
say India it already drops the price by
70% so what do they say no it's not
India it's uh somewhere else it's Brazil
it's somewhere in Europe it's somewhere
else and how do they do it
legally every single time in
manufacturing every time a a wig goes to
a different place a different Market a
different manufacturer and they add one
small little thing it's officially
becomes made there even though
originally the source is India doesn't
make a difference that's with anything
that's just
it's with anything so the only time you
see made in Made in India made in China
made in anything is when it literally
came from there that's where it was sold
from but most of these wigs are not sold
from India the original byproduct is
there but the resellers are in Italy or
in uh France in Germany and different
other places like that in America and so
on so it's it's the biggest lie in
history and unfortunately religious
people are behind
it that's the saddest part
the saddest part of the kosher wig
industry is that it's impossible to
kosher them for two reasons number one
because like I said you have to follow
the wig from step one from the minute it
was shaved or it's called
tonser until it actually becomes a wig
now it's impossible to follow it because
they mix up all the hair in huge giant
jugs all the hair it's not like one hair
is done okay finished another one one
hair is done or finished another one one
hair is done no
there's certain parts where they dye all
of them or they clean all of them and
they put all the hair together and then
they separate them by length so the hair
of Samantha and Wilma and Stacy and
Dynasty and this tea and that everybody
else is mixed together so no nobody else
is the same no one knows where the hair
came from no one knows if this one is an
idol worship and this one is a tadik no
one knows anything and then it's all
mixed together as far as length and now
so that's the first problem the second
problem is is is that the there's only
one place there's only one institution
in in the entire
world that kosher
wigs it's run by a person named Rabbi
gross now unfortunately is either he's a
liar or he's being lied to I'm not
really sure quite which one it is either
way there's a lot of lies and the reason
why is because he
himself when he was asked 14 years ago
do you believe that wigs out of India
that come from AAR
need to be koshered he says no why says
Ah just not necessary yeah but it's
according to all the P because yeah it's
not necessary I don't believe in that
meaning that he decided that to make his
own law and he doesn't believe that you
need to koser wigs the problem is if it
was just his opinion great the problem
is he's the one that's koshering it so
the same guy that doesn't believe in
Kosher meat is your
M the same guy that's uh you know that
believes that everyone should get
divorced is the one that's doing
your the prosecutor's attorney is your
is is your best friend and you're the
defendant doesn't make any sense he's on
the other team how are you being the
kosher guy that's so that's the other
reason that the whole thing the whole
the this the the semantics behind
everything behind it doesn't make make
any sense and that's why it's purely
business that I know a little bit about
what people are willing to do for money
they're willing to kill they're willing
to cheat they want to lie they want to
sell their mother their father and their
neighbor even if he didn't want to go
for sale if a woman wants to come but
she's not up to up
to saying it's better for not to wear
wig
than so there's two there's there's
there's uh there's three different
options one is you cover it with a scarf
with a scarf there's a website uh called
Rapunzel w a p u l.com it's a woman that
uh found very nice creative ways pretty
ways to cover your hair with a scarf and
you don't necessarily need to look like
you're from the 1920s there are nice
creative ways if you want to make the
covering your hair beautiful it's not
only allowed it's a Mitzvah it's a
Mitzvah to make yourself look good with
a Mitzvah it's magnifying a Mitzvah no
different than a buying a $2,000 pair of
instead of the bar mitzvah boy for 400
bucks okay you're magnifying the mitzvah
you want to make your look pretty there
are pretty ways to make it that's option
number one option number two is wear hat
there are a million and a half different
hats that are very good and very nice
and even many of the go and Superstars
wear them not just Jews wear hats go to
the Queen of England she wears a hat for
I don't know she's I 300 years old she's
wearing a hat for 300 years already say
all these people wear hats there's
nothing wrong with wearing a hat wear a
hat it's not it's not so bad all these
superstars classy Superstars at least
not the ones that are naked in every
movie they wear hats they're it's a
classy thing to do it's not like a such
a bad thing it's not like everyone oh
she wears a hat oh wouch where'd she
come from it's wearing a hat there's
nothing more wearing a hat No One's
Gonna ask
you so that's second opinion that's
second third opinion again Shalom said
there is two type of women that are that
don't need to
wear one is someone that's not married
if she's not married if she's still
single she doesn't have to cover her
hair even though the r says you should
but either way is you don't have
to the other one is if she simply just
doesn't have a head if she doesn't have
a head she doesn't have to cover a
head if she doesn't have a head she
doesn't have to cover her head
now the fourth option which is your real
question is what does she do if she's
not ready for a she's not we ready for a
kov she's not wearing for for for hat
and she's not ready to chop off her head
so what does she do the answer is do
chuva that's the answer the answer is do
chuva now if you're gonna ask me should
I benefit from idol worship or not
benefit from idol worship obviously the
answer is don't benefit of because
there's already one sin of not covering
your hair it's a bigger sin to put idol
worship on your
head are there different places in India
that make because I heard rki said that
did research also Ken and that um he
concluded that the wigs in India are not
Ken with all do respect to Rob
bsky is's
wrong listen I can't compete with any
any of the p as far as as far as Pim the
smallest of Pim the smallest one you
find anywhere in a little shook in a
little market it's bigger than me why
that's their life business that's my
thing business research thank you
let him travel to Janam too and come
back I still know more business than
him I was doador in I was doador in
business I know business I know what to
do when it comes to business I know
research I research markets economies uh
uh products this is one thing I know for
sure it's not something I'm not I'm not
talking about that he doesn't know I'm
telling you that I'm not blind I went
into a market I saw what's in the market
I saw what my eyes saw I saw what's
there I I saw what the market is I saw
what the process is I spoke to the
vendors I spoke to the product I spoke
to the uh to the people that are selling
it I spoke it's not like a guess I'm not
guessing this it's not like an opinion
this is a reality maybe there are two
places I'm saying even if there was two
places not
donated but that's the point it's not s
if there's 1% chance 1% chance of idol
worship you're still not allowed to do
it if there's 1% chance of something
being idol worship you're not going to
do it how the pro proof proof is not
only tah it's also based on logic let's
say for example all of you didn't drink
all day you were waiting for me to
finish talking all day to drink you
didn't drink all day all of you are
thirsty as as can possibly be and I said
okay you know what guys here's some 100
cups of water it's 100 cups of water but
before you jump before you jump I just
going to give you a little small tiny
disclosure there's 100 cups of water
it's free and if you want I'll even give
you $10 to drink the water but it's one
tiny little Clos for fun for fun I put a
little poison in one of them for fun
who's first who's going to drink first
no one's going to drink why no one's
going to drink why why is no one going
to drink because there's 1% chance that
there's
poison no one is going to risk their
physical life that's temporary for 1%
poison why would you risk your n that's
Eternal for poison because again the
reality is if you read if you want to if
you want to listen to what really
happens after life I have a sh it's not
for everyone it's not for everyone this
is one of those shs I actually have to
give a disclosure on all of the other sh
are for everyone this one sh is not for
everyone it should be but it's really
not it's about G I did a sh about Gom
one thing that most people are not
willing to do or even listen to and
there's actually there's a tra that
talks specifically about G so if you
want to know the risk if you're having a
saf should I put Idol wor on my head or
I shouldn't should I be or I shouldn't
should I continue going out with the
non-jew or I shouldn't should I continue
stealing or I shouldn't if you're if
you're having that doubt and you've
watched a lot of sh and nothing does it
for you go to that after that you'll be
here speaking to
people after you have all those doubts
you come you listen to that you'll do
chuva why if you don't do chva you're
crazy so you're
anyway if you don't do CH if you
actually know what happens in
you don't have to do any why because
you're and
is but that's the reality I'm only here
telling you the stuff that's a little
scary and a lot of admit because I know
the
price I got Gom in this world seven
years of it seven years seven years you
forgot it's the beginning of this two
hours ago seven years of Gom screaming
and yelling my lungs out every single
day a surgery every month imagine having
a surgery every month imagine being in
pain every single day imagining all your
best friends becoming
enemies imagine just one of them what
about all of
them what about the fact that at one
point I had to walk around with a king I
couldn't walk or at one point my my feet
and legs doubled in size for absolutely
no reason and I went to the ICU at
Cornell University top Hospital in New
York City I lived in Manhattan went to
top hospital they told me maybe it's the
Heat I told him maybe it's your
brain why would my legs double in size
because of the
heat no one knew what was wrong until
this day there was no
diagnosis there's no diagnosis so how am
I here how am I here talking to you for
two hours plus and I feel great I'm
standing and you're all
sitting
how also
says I am God you're
healer same God same God the god that's
responsible for
everything not really the god of Al
money the the uh the god of Israel the
one that took us out of Egypt the one
that did everything for us he's also our
God our healer so just like I get sick
for absolutely no reason I get cured for
absolutely no reason so I know what Gom
looks like in both places
it's both places the reality is chuva is
not really optional we just think it
is it's nice to think that we have a
choice but we don't have much of a
choice
yeah app
to if you're lending money to a Jew if
you own a business or you do it
privately and you lend money to a Jew if
that Jew is a sh Shabbat you have a
serious problem which means that a lot
of these new short-term lending
businesses that are founded by Jews and
many of them are religious Jews are very
problematic
businesses they're very very problematic
businesses I know this is the new thing
that a lot of Jewish guys are going into
this business uh similar to how
Electronics was 20 years ago similar to
how real estate was 15 years ago and 10
years ago similar to how mortgages was
about 10 years ago every decade every
five years Jews find a new business so
now there this new thing of short term
lending they lend people that are
desperate uh you know money for for high
interest 25% interest or above sometimes
less sometimes
more and they don't care if the guy is
Jewish or not Jewish now the problem is
if the money is coming from a Jew and
it's going to a Jew you have a s very
very serious
problem if the money is coming from a
bank it's coming from a bank and it's
going to a Jew it's less of a problem
but it's still a problem why because you
as the broker still benefited out of it
it's not as big of a problem but it's
still a problem if you ask me you should
leave the business if you're in it
whoever is in it should leave it if you
ask me a second question why are
religious people the one that actually
running these businesses because they
have the god of money not the god
of they believe in money more than they
believe in God in the dollar bill it
says What In God We Trust unfortunately
for them they believe the dollar is God
that's it it's all it
means so it's a problematic
business what about the banks in Israel
banks in Israel banks in general owned
by
shareholders so it's a it's not it's not
a single person that's uh owns the bank
and for the most part shareholders are
mostly non-jews so that's how most of
the people use that that leniency since
most of the owners of the bank most of
the owners of the shareholders are
unknown and they're usually go because
the vast majority of the world is go
then you're allowed it gives the
leniency for people to take a mortgage
or a bank loan and so on but there are
some people like my rim who refuses to
take a loan at all from any bank because
even if there's a one% chance that it's
majority Jew or not or something like
that he's not willing to take it but
that's his that's a it's not you're
allowed to take a loan from A bank but
again it's a uh it's it's that's the the
short-term Lending fing business is not
quite that usually there's one guy
that's funding it in many cases that's a
Jew and so on
yeah saying
that that Judy supposed to bring
families together right but in reality
it's actually separated
how for
example uh bhari and Jews they used to
used to more like communism used to not
keep Shabbat not keeping kosher okay I
think you tell to keep kosher keep but
it's it's um it's a h for them too much
for
them and then one someone in the family
starts keeping
Shabbat you know you're just like a
burden it's too much it's too much for
them so how is it
that you know you're going to the
truth but then when you're in when
you're when you're in the processes it's
just separating more and more people
okay so you ever travel on a plane
before yeah okay when you're on a plane
in every single plane there's a law that
says that the steward has to tell you a
few safety features before they take off
and one of the safety features that the
steward says is that if something
happens if there's a crash there's going
to be uh or it goes to a certain oxygen
level goes down to a certain level
there's going to be oxygen Mass to come
out from the roof it said says and every
single Steward says the same exact thing
it's all law it's all they all read it
it's not like some K they all say the
same thing they say if you have a baby
and the baby's really really cute and
it's your son it's your daughter it's
whoever it is it doesn't make a
difference and you love it more than
your own life still the law applies to
you the same save yourself
first and then save the baby even though
the baby can't save itself and it's
waiting for you to save it the reality
is first you have to save yourself so
this is how you have to look at things
first we do Chua first we do Chua first
we start learning tah first we start
keeping Shabbat first we start keeping
kosher after you start doing what hasem
wants and you start doing chuva people
are going to watch you without your
words you don't need to talk they just
going to see how your life changes how
it improves if you're really doing chuva
automatically you're becoming happier so
any one that you see that does chuva and
and he's not happy that's because he's
not doing chuva he's just learning stuff
to tell people what to
do a lot of people learn things just to
tell people what to do that's not chuva
chuva is you're working on yourself
you're fixing yourself you're fixing
that n that's like half broken it's like
missing a wheel or two we're angry too
much we're cheap too much we're uh you
know we're arrogant too much we're a lot
of different things we have a lot of
things we have to fix Chua is fixing
those mid it's not just going to it's
not just
learning it's not just a going for it's
fixing ourselves is becoming better
people better quality people once you
become a better quality person and
you're connected to the source of all
sources you connected to automatically
you become happy once you become happy
you're contagious everyone wants what
you have they look at you like what are
you taking I want that your mom your dad
your brother whoever it is it could be a
Nazi he looks at you he's like what are
you doing why you're happy everybody
wants to be happy everybody wants to be
happy so how come people are not walking
around to all the religious people and
saying I want to be like you because the
reality is they haven't done chuva
either they're religious but they
haven't done chuva because they're not
happy yet to be happy you have to do
real chuva real chuva means you have to
fix yourself you have to have full
what's what's is saying no that's not is
saying no that's not that's a nice
statement
what's is when everything is dark as
dark as the night and you still know
that hasem is not only there he's the
night when everything looks like it's
the opposite of
good everything looks
horrible left money's gone parents hate
you kids hate you wife hates you husband
hates you even the dog is spitting on
you everybody hates you and you know
this Darkness that's God why he's
talking to
me is talking to me that'sa when we get
there that's when we're contagious
that's when everybody says Ah what are
you taking I want that why because
whatever I'm doing with my Millions with
my billions with my whatever I have it's
not that so that's the thing that if we
do we first worry about us and we fix us
little by little other people are going
to start asking you and when they ask
you you're going to have you're going to
have answers now of course it's not easy
all the time if you're still living with
your parents if you're still living with
somebody that's not religious if you're
already married and you're ready to do
chuva but she's not or you're ready to
do chuva but he's not so that's
obviously a problem but it's not
impossible it's not impossible so first
and foremost most people are able to
afford 10 bucks a day most people could
afford 10 bucks a day we're not homeless
we're not uh and if you can't I'm sure
somebody can give you $10 a day or $5 a
day with $10 a day you could eat for the
whole day so even if everybody in the
house wants to eat pork with cheese on
it and some bacon on top just to make
sure it's it's really you could eat
kosher meal at a kosher place for 10
bucks don't eat at home don't eat there
they want to eat let them eat you don't
have to go on top of their head right
now why because for them if you start
telling them listen stop eating pig
because I'm doing cha they don't even
know what you're doing
yet until they start seeing that you're
Chui serious and you haven't eaten with
them for six months and they start
asking you questions don't even say
anything yet why you're waiting for them
to start seeing the effect of it until
you become sure with what you're doing
telling them anything they're not going
to listen to anyway now this applies
only to the people that are really close
to you the people that are living with
you now if it's a stranger if it's a
stranger right now you go outside and
you see one of your
friends you go tell him something now
why cuz he's a
stranger people that are living with you
are much more difficult to help them do
Chua and the reason why is because
they're always going to remember you
before you did Chua they're never going
to give you credit for doing
Chua your parents your brothers your
sisters they're always going to remember
you from before so them they're the last
option to help them you pretty much have
to pray for hem to help
them because they're not going to listen
to you right away it's going to take
time for them to listen to you but the
strangers in the world somebody you
don't know someone from the Kila
somebody from school somebody from work
all these strangers go to first give
them a CD send them a Shure send them a
link do different things to get them to
come to do Chua but as far as if if
you're living with people that are going
against the tah 100% if you could move
obviously
move but assuming you don't have a
choice and you're let's say for example
you're in a one of those circumstances
where you don't have any money you don't
have a job and you don't have any way to
get out of this and you live with your
parents then the reality is that all you
have to do is ask your parents for 10
bucks a day or get a job that's going to
make you 10 bucks a today and go eat
kosher elsewhere Shabbat try to find a
place to stay out to keep Shabbat don't
stay at the house for keeping Shabbat
there's an application called
shabbat.com
shabbat.com is an application where
different people host different people
for
Shabbat uh this is actually very good
for people that are looking for z a lot
of people have actually gotten married
as a result of going to different
people's houses their daughter their
sons their so on so this is a good idea
for people that are single you want to
go to a sh Shabbat house it's definitely
better than being alone or being with a
bunch of people that don't keep Shabbat
so Shabbat stay somewhere else holiday
stay somewhere else and once people
start seeing the important people in
your life start seeing that AEM is
important to you if they love you it'll
start becoming important to them too
maybe not to the extent that they're
going to change their life automatically
but at least they'll start respecting
you and respecting your desire so
they're not going to eat the pig right
in front of you don't leave it behind
your back they're not going to watch the
TV in front of you on Shabbat they'll
watch it when you leave so even if
they're against it they're not going to
do it in front of you that's if they
love you if they hate you you should
move out anyway but the point is is that
there is ways to go around it it's not
impossible just because the whole family
is not doing Chua doesn't mean we can't
do Chua just means that your time came
now their time will come
later but there are always ways creative
ways to to make it work
uh I mean I when I first started doing
cha I lived on a 35th floor in
Manhattan now the reality is you can't
be part of a community if you live in a
35th
floor because to go up and down 35
stories on Shabbat or holidays is not
happening number one I was very sick and
number two that's just not happening
even if you're not sick you're not going
up and down 35 stories so on Shabbat it
was one of two options either I was
going to my parents house in ston Island
and stay there for the whole Shabbat
stay there for the whole weekend or I
would just stay at home and not
leave that's my Shabbat so I didn't go
to beet but it wasn't fine it was fine
for me for almost two years until I want
to be part of a community so we moved
out we moved to Florida and so on and so
forth but the point is that if you want
to do you want to do the will of hem
you'll find a way you'll find a way
don't depend on other people next
question yeah go ahead question
pointed that you said you had a question
um actually I don't have a question I
just didn't want to be um I totally
agree with the rabbi about the of woman
covering their hair excuse me that I'm
bringing it back again I know everybody
wants to be but I just don't want to be
like who kept quiet I agree that a woman
should cover fully her hair okay I just
want the RAB to know that the B
Community is doing a tremendous movement
in religion and my parents deal with the
barkarian community and tell telling the
community that a woman should not cover
her hair at all if she doesn't if she if
she doesn't want to cover it
with might do some sh bik issues or like
have have men have issues you know
dating certain girls which I don't know
if that's what we want well that's the
thing if if we knew for sure that the
wig that someone is getting is coming
from a kosher Source if we knew it's
coming from some Jew that's decided to
donate our hair and our two friends
decide to join them and the factory
decide to make that into a wig so we
know for sure this wig has a problem as
far
as but it's not a problem as far as then
you're right the problem is we have no
we have no way to do that we know based
on Research that I did based on Research
that did from 15 years ago based on the
that actually looked into it much bigger
than I could ever be if you're buying a
wig there's no way in the world for you
to know it's not Idol meaning the
majority of wigs are idol worship so
it's better all men should their no one
say divorce wife just don't wear a wig
no but the woman wants to wear it or if
she doesn't want so he should not get
married to her because he does want to
right I just want to understand the
logic behind it okay like I get it I get
it not allow so it's not allow okay so
now right so if let's say for example
somebody has a shid hold on guys if
anyone wants to leave you can leave
quietly anyone wants to stay can stay
quietly okay so this is a very very
serious question there's two questions
number one first question is first
question
is ready first question is two very
serious questions first question is we
have one guy that's on
shid and the woman comes from kabad
kabad is a very big promoter of wigs
that's there there's two main forab
mashia is the rebi and and wigs that's
the two big things of kabad
huh oh three different things yeah three
different things so it's three different
things that they that they're big
on re is mashia sometimes he's God and
and and the wigs that's the three big
things I'm not I'm not saying it's
reality no majority
majority well anytime it's over 80% it's
you it's it's consider
reality it's not a reality it's not no
it's against God they're doing something
that's against God saying things that
are against God whether it be wigs or
being the the Reb's mashiah it's against
God so that's not that's that's that's
huh was very supportive
of he was very supportive of according
to what they
say not necessarily not necessarily not
necessarily
not a ago I asked him I said If a woman
in New York in America wears a wig I
asked have on video should I bother her
to take it off he said don't bother her
what he writes in the he said this
is he
said's wife didn't cover the hair saying
cover then we got one second one second
then he got to the whole thing with
India there's places that that they say
that from India that meaning if it's not
from India you're not sure then maybe
you could wear it I have a customer who
has an elephant in front of his room
okay every day he comes he puts a Dollar
by the elephant that means I can't take
money from this guy because it's suff 1%
of that dollars from this elephant I
mean no no that's do dollar is not from
the elephant the elephant is a simple
statue the hair itself is the idol is
something that was offered to the to the
uh the dollar wasn't offered to the
elephant the hair was offered to the
elephant dollar to the elephant the
question is is it called is it called
idol worship what they're doing it's
100% idol
worship they r on that's the argument I
know what rki is saying I know what R is
saying they have what to not it's
definitely not so I read okay so I read
I read okay so I read the whole thing of
what rski
said not just this conclusion I read the
whole thing and RAV bski himself in the
beginning the middle and the end says
I'm not even in a position to go against
R yashiv and what he says this is simply
my opinion he's not even telling you to
follow what he says he says is my
opinion it's not Al he's not being a
he's not not he's not going against it's
just simply what he thought of it he
says this is just my opinion but go
listen to R yashi he's not saying listen
to him he's not saying go start wearing
wigs he's not saying everything is
kosher what everybody else saying it's
the same thing with the re saying oh no
he preferred wigs over K that's not true
at all and the reason why you think that
is because that's why kabad says oh he
preferred wigs over that but that's not
true cuz I have letters from the rebi
where he says he prefers the over the
wig is another topic hold on so now
answer the question let's answer the
question you have two questions male
should look down on his wife because
she's wearing a wig two questions two
question not Mar her to begin first
question is if you have a and the woman
is from or from other sect of Judaism or
she just in general she wants to wear a
wig and you have heard have listened and
you believe
you believe everything I just
say second question is if you're married
to her
already now if you're not married to her
already if you're not married to her
already and you know that it's
impossible for you to have any any night
of sleep with certainty that you don't
have AB in your in your in your house
you know that the
wig it's not maybe it's not maybe it's
abar it's a reality you you could
disagree with me as much as you want
anyone could disagree with me I saw it I
know it you can do whatever you want the
point is the market research is the
market research the customer is the
customer now the point is if you have
even if it's not 99% like I say it's 1%
chance 1% chance that it's a if you have
1% you have 1% you're not going to want
in your
house you're not going to want your in
your house that's as simple as a get
you're not going to want your in your
house so
now if a woman that you haven't married
is not only telling you I'm going to
bring what you believe is potentially a
into the house but also against what you
want meaning you're telling no I don't
want you to wear a wig and he says no I
am going to wear a wig and if I don't if
you don't let me wear a wig I'm going to
leave you then it's not a problem of
then it's a problem of why you even with
her in the first place she doesn't want
to listen to anything you say you're not
in the same p to begin with why you
going to get married you're just going
to get divorced few years because she
doesn't want to wear a wig doesn't mean
she doesn't like him doesn't want to be
with him if she wants to wear a wig
that's only because she wants other
boyfriends no that's not it's only
because she wants other
husbands he's very obviously and not
wearing wigs he himself says that if a
person is dating somebody and she wants
to wear a wig he should not not marry
her because that reason he said you
should marry her but slowly by slowly
should try to convince her and Inspire
her to wear but it say you should not
should marry for want to wear WI I'm not
saying I'm not I'm not saying I'm not
saying don't marry because of the wig
I'm saying you say no she says yes every
for
reason I'm not saying you say you're
telling her no and she says yes that
means you guys are are disagreeing on a
foundation of Judaism you're in two
different pages you're in two different
pages that's one so that's if you're not
married answer to the second same second
question which is if you already married
to her if you already married to her and
she's wearing a wig and you know for
sure it came not only from India it came
from the idol worshiper himself and she
doesn't she simply doesn't care doesn't
care she says Let It Come From Buddha
himself I don't care I want to put it on
my head I'm not listening I want to wear
the wig do you get a divorce no you
don't get a divorce not we're not
suggesting people to get divorce well
when you're dating not when you're
married I know what you
said if you're already married to her
you don't get a divorce but you have to
get her to do chuva over time obviously
how to get it to do
Chua takes time different people
different ways some people it's learning
about some people it's learning about
modesty some people it's about learning
different things the reality isai is any
single woman any woman that has listened
to the shim that we have about wigs
about providing all the sources all the
all the facts all the Industry facts all
the facts all those things I have a
bunch of sh about this
topic the women that have taken off
their their wigs it didn't happen
overnight some of them it took a month
some of them it took a week some of them
it took uh two years but the point is
the women that took it off at the end
after they finally took it they all
admitted the truth the real reason of
why they wore a wig in the first place
is simply because they wanted attention
from other men which by default makes it
not
allowed I don't believe that you don't
believe I'm lying to you even if a woman
even I'm lying to you I'm making
make husband yeah a woman woman wears a
hat she looks older than she is she
looks older you know
the way woman do not one person at a
time it can't listen to everybody at the
same
time no it doesn't no it doesn't in
general women are moreci about their
beauty even if a woman was born
yesterday so even within the woman go to
a woman party the want to wear a wi CU
they want the other women to look at
them oh this this girl is pretty okay so
okay okay so hold on okay let's let's
answer let's answer this next question
okay so
now
so you want to answer the
question
ready okay so
now as far as as far as the the the the
joke as far as far as the joke of the
year of women using the excuse of I want
to be attractive to my husband the
reason why it's the joke of of the year
is because no one said you shouldn't be
attractive to your husband because when
you're with your husband alone you could
show your hair no one says you're not to
show your hair in your house show your
hair no one says don't show your hair
but the reality is that most of the day
most of the day your husband's at work
and you're not at work with him you're
somewhere else so in reality most people
that see you and not your husband you go
to the supermarket with the wig you go
to the mall with the wig you go to the
store with the wig what so your
husband's not there so how come all the
women that are wearing wigs don't only
wear wigs next to their husband how come
they're wearing it next to Mustafa also
and Steve from the supermarket and
Wilbur and and all and Patrick how come
they wear it for them also how come they
not wearing a hat for all those other
people and only the wig for the husband
because it's all a joke the reality is
any real woman that's is emit it's a
real emit that she's looking for the
truth and she'll stand up for the truth
even if she has one live it will tell
you there's only one reason I want to
wear wig why to attract other men that's
it there's no other reason women like
attraction that's a reality hem created
them that way it says in it's not
mym says you will depend on the man for
what what depend on what for money there
plenty of women that are successful not
any men on your men yes any men in
general why the man who gives his woman
attention she's not going to seek it
anywhere else that's why not going to
want to wear wig nature of the woman I'm
not saying for you're right and
all woman should not wear a wig not it's
but the question is why and if she does
how should the men react I just don't
want
to in the houses of these people who are
really trying hard very hard like I said
in the beginning of the sh I asked you a
question I asked you a question how much
does God how much is God worth to you
how much how much is he worth to you to
some people he's worth a th000 bucks to
some people he's worth a million dollars
to some people he's worth a simple
wig that's a reality if you know that by
wearing a wig there's a 1% chance 1% not
99% like I'm saying there's 1% chance
that you are now officially a member of
idolatry you're benefiting from idol
worship in reality it's 99% if not 100%
but let's say it's 1% 1% chance that
it's idolatry so there's a 1% chance you
are officially benefiting from something
that Hashem specifically says 12 times
in the
Tor it's disgusting to me
disgusting you and now to your father in
Heaven that gives you everything gives
you your eyes your ears your your tongue
your nose your hair your Z your kids
kept them alive all these years your
wife your husband your business
everything you have you are doing
something that he says outright it's
disgusting to me if you're willing to
take that 1% chance 1% chance you have a
serious problem you have a serious you
have you have a serious crisis in your
relationship not between your husband
and wife between hasem and you because
you're willing to do something that he
says to you it's disgusting to me that
means you don't know what he means that
means you don't know what it means to be
disgusting to him that means we have to
do Chua like I said there's no such
thing as from from birth there's no such
thing as religious anymore there's
people that do chuva and people that
don't do chuva now as far as people that
are wearing wigs they want to continue
wearing wigs enjoy your wigs I don't
care what am I selling hats what am I in
a hat business am I making some some
major money from you taking off your
wigs wear your wigs enjoy your wigs what
the hell do I care I'm just trying to
help you you want to violate Shabbat
fate Shabbat there's a consequence
that's all I'm telling you there a
consequence for it you don't want to
believe it don't believe it do you think
that Rabbi bski and the laichi rebi and
any rebi and the local rebi and this
rebi and that rebi are going to help you
when Hashem says oh by the way you're
the idol worshipper that I've been
waiting for for 30 years come come I
have a Gom sweet right for you over here
you think they're going to help you oh
no but this guy said it's alloud he said
it's alloud he's also in G home right
next to
you he's in get right next to you it's
the same sweet all we're mixing up two
things one thing you we're mixing up is
ID wor the other thing is the woman
attracted to her husband or
not know wife from non sure not allowed
that's allow right that's not a
problem not
allow not allowed
because you have to C
AR hold on hold on
also okay would you like would you like
for me to answer you guys want to do
okay hold on actually you know what I
have something for you guys I think
somebody asked me about wigs yeah
actually have something anybody know
that I read Hebrew yeah okay
so okay so here here I
have now the m the
m of wigs no wigs yes wigs all this
stuff like I told you
for over 2,000 years it was based on
was based on modesty even though the
wigs in previous generation looked like
brooms they were not allowed because of
modesty issues 400 years
ago it became a debate meaning for 2,000
years it was not allowed 2,000 years it
was not allowed 400 years ago somebody
said it's allowed to wear a wig so
meaning the whole issue of wig started
400 years ago it didn't start 2,000
years ago uh uh B didn't wear a wig s
menu didn't wear a wig no one wore a wig
until 400 years ago now this by itself
should give you the conclusion AR about
yes there
is and they say how they wear sh back
then it was people that didn't have hair
and they wore it under a hat Under a hat
they wore it they didn't just wear the
shato by itself they wore it under a hat
why because they were missing hair and
it wasn't it was it didn't look nice for
them to have just a hat or just a me
covering their hair because you still
could tell they're bald so they put some
wig so it still fills up the that's how
the original wig was 400 years ago 400
years ago he said no you don't need the
you don't need the Hat just weigh The
Wig by itself
now that's when the big debate started
which already should tell you that in
reality the wig is not allowed because
if it was allowed s would wear a wig
Rifka would wear a wig ra would wear a
wig B would wear a wig KH would wear all
the but let's say move on let's move on
hold on a second guys
now out of the last 2,000 years there's
been
127 Pim 127 Pim and recently there was
another 10
added so it's 137 pusim but in reality
it's 127 Pim all the way from the days
of thean benel yonan benel if you look
at the beginning of
first uh I think it's the third or
fourth page it says yonan was the first
one that
started he started the oral Tor
before before him he started the P the
first P first commentary wasan
benan was the first one says not allowed
no wigs are allowed in regards to
modesty not since then 126 more all the
way to Rya said it's not allow Rashi R
and so on and so forth now if you
compare that
list to the number of Pim that say it's
it is allowed the numbers can't compare
and the reason why is because you're
looking if you're looking as the size of
the Pim
from to the people on the other side can
compare not just necessarily in stature
but also in regards to number we're
talking about more than 10 to one more
than 10 to one States not allowed which
means plent of today that that it's
completely today today is not comparison
to or or any of them first I don't know
the held that it's Au I'm telling you it
is I don't know if that's true because I
also spoke to Rob who he the the whole
thing starts from from it's whether it's
going on a s right that's where the
whole thing starts from if you're going
AA any covering is okay if you're going
s then there's a fourth in there's a
fourth that says that it goes by right
that you go by what the most of the
people are doing and then you go
according to that if you see you go to G
you go to ER you see that most of the
women there are wearing wigs then I
spoke to R who spoke to post him then
then it's okay so either way you go now
you you're coming on the a separate like
a different topic of V that's a
different topic but if you're going to
go as far as is concerned there 127 post
that say it's not allowed the argument
that would have is a girl who's not
married should would have to cover the
also that's the argument girls who are
not married based have to cover their
yes the rum bump fcks like that exactly
that's why they bring air stronger
reason but the point the 127 P are not
saying about it they're saying as far as
not allowed to wear a wig 127 Pim
exactly I have the list 127 pusim it's
not it's not a madeup number I didn't
just make it up on the way here 127 P
you compare it to historically not this
generation this generation you can't
compare to 400 years ago 500 years a
thousand years AG you can't compare
people from our generation now which is
a generation of there's barely any left
there's barely any people that actually
speak out about some big issues and the
reality is 90% of don't keep so you
can't compare this generation to the
generation of even 100 years ago 200
years ago you can't
so of today are not like the ones from
100 years ago 500 years ago a thousand
they'll tell you themselves they're not
no is if you compare the list
number-wise number-wise of allowed
versus not allowed we're talking about a
ratio of 10:1 not allowed versus allowed
10:1 now or more than 10:1
now the ones that
say it's not allowed they're not saying
it's not
allowed and you know what but if you do
it no big deal not saying oh it's not
allowed but if you do it ah it's okay
you could rely on something there's a
list of different things different M of
all of
these the the
bab uh and so on there I don't know
maybe 70 or 80 over here each one of
them of what actually wrote you can read
this you could take this if you'd
like these are these
are learn with them this is what they
said the stuff they say is much worse
than the stuff they said about wigs you
want to take that risk enjoy go have fun
with it what doesn't affect me I at
least I'm P I told you I'm P I'm not
going to G for somebody else I didn't
tell him about it I told you you want to
take you want to rely on somebody that
says it's allowed enjoy yourself you're
taking a risk I'm not willing to take
that risk so that's in regards to in
regards to that's not even a debate and
the reason why is because as great as
they are in Torah didn't spend 16 years
on Wall Street I
did I know how to do research you can't
challenge that I was on TV I was on
Bloomberg on CNBC on CNN that's what I
did for 20 years you can't tell me any
Rabbi in the world knows more about
market research than I do I don't even
need to know who they are and they just
don't that's what I did for a living
it's like me telling I'm a better pect
than you because I've been learning for
five years it's a joke so it's not that
they're not smarter than me they just
never spent that much time doing it I
did the research I'm telling you the the
market of wigs only comes from India
that's it there are of course small
markets everywhere in Cambodia and this
one and that one but as far as the
market the Market is from India you want
to take that chance that there's a saf
maybe yes maybe no you're either a part
of idol worship or part of not that
means there's a different sh for you the
sh Is Not About Wigs the sh is
about that she should be about not wigs
why because if anyone that has 1% of 1%
of fear of hem 1% they're scared that
hasem may punish them 1% they're afraid
that hasem may make them sick 1% they're
Afra afraid has make their kid die 1%
they're afraid that hasem may take all
their money 1% they're afraid that hashm
is going to make them die alone and
never have anybody in their life 1%
they're afraid the IRS is going to audit
them and torture them for 10 years 1%
they're afraid they're going to go to
Gom and never leave
1% they're not going to take a chance
they're not going to take a chance why
for 1% chance forget 99% I gave you 99%
reasons to be scared you're still not
scared the she should have been
completely different should have
been we need to understand who hasem
is and that's the reality so that's what
we're missing today we have no idea what
we're dealing with we think that God is
our friend he's our buddy he's our
roommate we could play with him we could
rely on on on this local Rabbi that
translated things in his own different
way and like he's going to help you in G
he's going to help you in sham yeah he's
G oh yeah yeah yeah I told him yeah it's
okay it's okay he's going to help you
when you're up there he doesn't even
know you and that's the reality you want
to rely on him rely on him that's your
chance me I went through hell I went
through hell I know what it looks like
here and there both the part I'm telling
you and the part I'm not telling you I
know what it looks like me I'm not
taking a chance I'm not taking a chance
not telling you I'm not taking a chance
doing it myself why I know what it looks
like the B one that start a m movement
he had a had every one of his students
was a bigger Angel than the other one
day he brings a giant fish giant fish to
Thea giant fish with a big giant uh uh
knife he puts it on his table everybody
stops and see what is he doing what's
the r doing why ises he have such a big
fish he puts it on a table and chops it
in
half he's looking they have noidea is he
going to make a sushi why is cutting a
fish and half like what's the what's the
what's the what's
theat he sees everybody chops it
again people again are like maybe he's
making us two Sushi chops it again now
everybody's like okay something's
happening here he's not making
salad and after the quiet stops he says
to
them you see this this is what's going
to happen to you if you don't learn to
and do
chuv he's telling this not to people
that are that are like half chv half yes
half no maybe yes maybe no maybe they
keep Shabbat maybe no maybe they learn
once a week maybe six times a week he's
not talking to that he's talking to
anashim that considered angels and he's
telling them if you don't do chuva this
is going to be your end that's what hasm
is going to do with you you think he was
joking if you think he's exaggerating
you don't know what it means to be a
Jew this I'm not taking the risk you
want to take the risk with your life
enjoy at the very least I told you at
the very least you can't go up to sh and
you can't say oh I didn't hear why
because this
says heard you heard also
why
yeah his wife his mother oh yes that's
also true that's also true
represent well that's the one thing that
also is the big kept secret in in
kabad God bless them kabad does a lot of
good things they're everywhere Starbucks
they help a lot of people
do but one thing that they're escaping
from in regards to the wig issue is that
they're telling you that the only
opinion that the laichi had is
predominantly About Wigs and it's not
true and the best proof that I provided
so far is the fact that I showed
pictures not it's not it's not a Deon
it's not my imagination I actually
showed pictures more than a dozen
pictures that I have of both his mom
the's mom and his wife both of them in
every single picture are wearing a
hat in every single picture of wearing a
hat or k meaning his own wife his
biggest
T his own mom his biggest
teacher as far as women in his life both
of them are not holding by him they're
not holding by the wick thing why
because they held by what the Torah says
what Tora say wear wear a hat doesn't
say wear a wig it doesn't say it and
even his own family knew it what he
tells his Tam or whatever he wrote in a
few letters different story in reality
the people closer to you know the truth
your wife knows exactly what you really
are your husband knows exactly what you
really are why he knows what's happening
behind closed doors you could look like
a sadik in with and everything else but
she knows you're a thief she knows
you're a liar why she knows where
everything comes from you could pretend
all you want but she knows his wife knew
exactly what he believed that's why she
followed it she put a on she put a hat
on you want to hold by at least hold by
what she did look at what she what his
wife did and that's it so the point is
if she's not willing to take a risk if
theab J's wife and mom are not willing
to take a risk why are you why is your
wife I'm not saying go start fing GS
every day and start divorcing your wives
but at the very least the conclusion of
the sh should mean every single one of
us needs to do for something some people
for wigs some people for some people for
but don't start relying on local rabbis
I don't care who they are even
me go double check everything go double
check everything and until you know for
sure this is the Adit that I'm willing
to testify for that it doesn't matter
what they're going to tell me in sh I'm
going to hold to it even if tell them
you're going to again up for it right
I'm going until you can testify this is
the don't do do it that's why and
they're both right they're both right
even though we hold by bet it says
mashia comes We Hold by bet Shi why
they're both right why because both of
them believe that what they're doing is
100% Amit not because it was their
belief in their heart but really because
they fought for their and they reached
their us we're just relying on some
local guy we we watched a few YouTube
videos of me or somebody else and we're
we can't do that you have to look for it
fight for the emit fight for being emit
don't just say oh this guy said it's
okay so it's okay I'm willing to risk
going against 127 P that say it's not
allowed I'm willing to risk it I'm going
to go fight them in sh because that's
who's going to show up to theed how 27
Pim say Hey listen how come you went
against me no what are you gonna have
say oh the rabbi told me who Rabbi uh
Smith who is he oh yeah you know he
graduated from uh Yeshiva University
with 3.8
GPA who are you talking that's that's
who that's who you decide to bet your on
some guy with a 3.8 GPA that's
against
