in a few days it's rosh hashanah
now you know what happens in rosh
hashanah we are being judged
this is called judgment day this is a
more severe day than yom kippur
yom kippur is the day that our sins get
forgiven but on rosh hashanah we're
being judged
why you being why are we being judged in
rosh hashanah
i think we can maybe introduce another
system that we don't have to do a rosh
hashanah every year
let's just do one judgment day when you
die
isn't it easier no i'll tell you why
we're being judged every year and not
once in our lifetime
can you imagine that there wouldn't be a
rosh hashanah
and you would die after 120 years or 90
or 80 and you go up to shamayim and then
they'd do it to you
and then they judge you for everything
you did your entire life
how are you going to do chuba how are
you going to say wait a minute i
i was i was not performing the right way
i was not acting the right way
so hashem made an unbelievable system he
says instead of me surprising you at the
end of your life
and jen judging you when you can do
chuba i'll judge you once a year
that you can get your act together you
can
look how was i the whole year was i
conducting myself the right way
and then you do chuva throughout the
month of elul then you finalize the
rosh hashanah and then hopefully the
next year
you can remove 20 30 40 of the sins and
the junk that you did in the previous
year
so she made an unbelievable system that
he judges us
every year again
and every year hashem says i will open a
new page
will open uh that's how you send english
i opened a new page
neighbors let's open a brand new page
sashim says why wait 80 years and then i
will meet you in the heavenly court and
how are you going to do chuba
so i will make a system that every year
i will judge you now hashem says
something very very powerful because
rosh hashanah has in a few days and i
need to prepare myself the right way
hashem says you know what let's open a
brand new
page i think in english they say let's
open a new slate
i think that's how they say that but
anyways you got the point
hashem says let's start fresh a new
start
i'm willing to start new really
you don't hear hashem is telling you
that but hashem is telling you
do the right shiva i'm willing to start
clean with you
like as if the entire year you are
perfect
how and i'm not joking with you that's
what our sages teach us in the holy
books
hashem says i'm willing to take that day
and to ignore everything you did the
entire year
and to pretend like the entire year you
are on your best behavior let's start
fresh
how how do you do it
and hashem says i want you to choose
life we just right now in the parasha
and it's
you should choose life what does it mean
choose life
choose good so says
i only want you to choose good
so what do you really need to do this is
really your your ticket on rosh hashanah
you where you are so you need to make a
switch in your mind
that you choosing on rosh hashanah
that's how you do this
you make a decision i don't i don't want
to be where i was the entire year i want
to be in a brand new place
where i don't sin where i'm not
judgmental when i don't
use false language where i don't slander
when i do
exactly what hashem wants choose
life choose good
now when you make this choice that's
where hashem is
is judging you so now it has to be in
the back of your mind the entire day
that you choose good next year i want to
learn torah three hours a day i want to
pray in name
and i want to be good and i want to do
charity and i want to be
working on myself et cetera et cetera et
cetera that
hashem judges you on where you are that
moment so hashem says i'm willing to
ignore everything you did the entire
year
if you choose good then choose good
then choose to be the best jew in
history to be the best you
you ever been so sure we'll judge you
according to that
and for that i'm going to tell you a
funny story this was told by the mageed
his name is jakov krantz lived about 200
years ago
230 years ago and he once told the story
a funny story
and he said there was once a zoo and
they had all the animals in the zoo
giraffes rhinos hippopotamus
monkeys everything they only didn't have
one animal
they didn't have lions now what kind of
a zoo is that how can you have a zoo
without lions
everybody wants to come to see the king
of the jungle he couldn't get lights
so only the owner of the zoo did he went
and got
customs of airlines like originals
like you know how you kill the animal
and you take the skin off and you make
like a
a stuffed animal so he got perfectly
two customs of lions
and he hired two individuals and he told
them you have to pretend you're lions
you're going to wear the custom on you
all you need to do
is lie down and move a little bit and
walk around pretend your lines and the
people will come and look at the lines
and you're gonna look pretty real that's
it and that's what they did
okay so the trick worked and everybody
thought wow look this line's over there
one time a guy comes to the owner of the
zoo and tells him why are you lying to
everybody i know you like this is not
real lines
this is the owner tells him what are you
talking about it's real lines it's like
it's not realized i know it's not
real lions you're lying to everybody
and the owner of the zoo says i don't
know what you're talking about it's real
lions so the man tells him i
heard them speak i heard them talk to
each other
they're not real lines so the owner of
jesus says
so they spoke that doesn't mean they're
not lions
so he tells are you crazy i heard one of
them telling the
other when is the zoo getting close i'm
so
hot in here so he tells them
the whole year there they are lions
one time they spoke
so what the the backing from davina says
the whole year you are a lion
so one time be a human one time talk
so what are we taking from this story
is that the whole you are you are the
same you're late to the mignon you don't
show up to the minion you don't say
because amazon you don't really learn
torah
you hear celestion right here you do
this you do that you're judgmental you
whole year in our line so one time on
rosh hashanah
talk be a man be a human being one time
so the whole year he was a lion saying
in other words
that on rosh hashanah you saying hashem
i want to change
that's it don't be a lion be a man and
say hashem
please forgive me i did everything
nothing was deliberately nothing was to
anger you
nothing was to go against you i never
i want to change hashem i'm here by
telling i want to change and you know
what happens hashem forgives you
because i said you say
judges you wherever you are so on
judgment day
hashem i want to change i don't want to
sin anymore
i don't want to be the horrible person i
am i want to be exactly what the torah
says
i want to be how you tell me to be and
that's how hashem judges you and then so
hashem says
i'm willing to start fresh just change
just accept on yourself that you want to
be a better person
and by that hashem is going to forgive
you and bazaar hashem
bless you with an abundance with a year
full of happiness
success health joy and whatever your
heart desires hashem will fulfill in the
best way possible
just say one thing hashem i want
to change
