Hayashi Oh Tyler Marisa when you tell me that it's night outside without me looking outside I believe you that it's night but if it's close to the night I don't know 100% of its night I believe you I trust you but if I look outside then I know that it's nighttime we come to the level of Emunah which we know that Hashem is running the world the question is how do we get to the level of knowledge that a Shem is running the world in order for us to come to the level of belief in a Shem to know that a Shem is actually watching over us and actually not just watching over us but actually guiding us in every single thing that we do number one it's obvious that the world we live in was not created and didn't happen by chance it was obviously made by a co-op by a power which is divine if a man comes to a contest of art bringing his masterpiece picture which he worked on for many years he comes and he tells the crowd he tells the audience listen here this picture that you see over here you see all the intricate drawing you see all the lakes and all the trees and all the little pinpoints everything so precise he tells them I worked on this for many years but you know how it came this beautiful picture you know how this beautiful picture came about what I did was for the past 25 years every morning I've been taking a bucket of paint mixing it with different colors and throwing it against this piece of canvas I've been doing this with 20 years finally after much hard work this masterpiece came about it's obvious that this man would be laughed at we look at the intricate world that we live in we look at the person's body just think about the brain the brain has 100 billion electrically conductive biological wires going on in a person's brain this brain was created and it's not one brain it's a second brain it's a third brain every day tens and hundreds of rings are being created and every single one of them is working perfectly is it possible a heart the rest of the body a person who wants to see a Shem oh yes and do is simply study the body think about the Sun the Sun 93 million miles away from the earth one mile closer to the earth we would burn one mile away from the earth we would have freeze it's in the perfect position the earth surrounds the Sun the earth is surrounded by the moon everything is perfect nothing is moved by a millimeter hundreds and thousands of years a person just studies the person just contemplates a little bit in these wonders a person realizes this world didn't happen by chance it's not happenstance this world was made by a creator and it was not just created by the Creator and given up this world was created and it's continued to be watched and guided by the Creator hm and the proof is that we continue living we continue breathing with no batteries the heart continues to pump no batteries the brain works no batteries everything works perfectly there is a creator and there is someone that is guiding and moving every single thing that goes on when a person realizes this it becomes real it becomes so clear to the person that Hashem exists and it's not just mo now it doesn't just believe he knows that if some exists when a person comes to that level and he knows who Hashem is he gets closer to him a person who gets closer to him by connecting himself to him which means everything he does he does in his mind I am doing this with Hashem guidance there is nothing I can do I cannot move a finger without our Shem moving my finger I cannot think a thought without a shim putting the thought in my mind when a person comes to this understanding a person lives his life with omona a person lives his life with India he knows that a sham is with him when a person knows that Hashem is with him and then a person starts looking at the good that he has because you realize how much good I shall give to him he doesn't contemplate on the negative he doesn't stare in on the negative he looks at the half cup that's full and when a person has that outlook in life that our Shem is with him all the time for his benefit and for his good then that brings a person to the ultimate happiness [Music] you [Applause]
