Our Mental Delete Button - Rabbi Jonathan Rietti

[Music] the stier the father of Kim kenki of blessed memory writes in the saer acas which was written by Rabbi Yakov Greenwald but he was asking questions to the stier and one of the questions was how does the Mind work in relationship to someone who's got all these Bill bulim confusing thoughts about things he's seen and can't get out of his mind and he offers the following if you don't stay stuck on what you're thinking about then guess what's going to happen your mind is fluid and your mind will come up with a new thought that's how your mind works you're always thinking you can't stop thinking and when I put a pause on what I'm thinking about I can get to something else it says as long as I don't stay fixed on what I'm looking at guess what's going to happen a new thought will pop up on its own so I'm going to share with you the world of popups you get a popup on a phone not you personally but a neighbor might have one and uh you've got two options either you open and I call explore or you press the x button at the top of the screen delete and you ignore so when a person gets lots of popups in their mind I understand that if it's on a phone or a screen I press the delete button and that will delete the popup but where's the delete button in my mind and the answer is your next thought your next thought is the delete button Yeshua sashem herfy in that's a strange statement because what's faster than the blink of an eye and the answer is a thought you can think much faster than you blink one blink of the eye is about one six of a a second a thought is a split second and comes along and wants us to know I judge you by your thoughts R boy I want your mind yeshu there's only one item that's faster than the speed of your blink of an eye your next thought there's your delete button
