The Four Species | The Secret Key to Your Happiness - Rabbi Eitiel Goldwicht

Okay, we're getting ready for Yum Kipper, but I would like to get us ready for sukus because yum kipper is really a leadup to sukus. Yum kipper, I'm sure we we've been speaking about chuva. We've been speaking about becoming better versions of ourselves. Um, but it all actually leads us to sukus because there's you know there's two operating systems. One is the shishalum pes and sukus and the other one is the yum which is and sukus meaning sukus is the culmination of everything sukus is the moment that we've all been waiting for and since we're not going to be meeting next week on Thursday cuz we're getting ready for our bar mitzvah um so therefore I would like to discuss today already sukus Yeah. >> And to get us ready because that is really this entire process not just already from PES we've been heading and getting ready to get to the moment of sukus and I want to discuss what happens on sukus what is so unique of on sukus that this is really the culmination of everything and just to give us a little bit of a background [clears throat] >> and it's we're going to discuss that as well just to give us a little bit of a background what do I mean that this is the culmination of everything really. The moadim are we know that Israel invented the best GPS system in the world known as ways. How does ways work? You know where you are right now. It calculates where you are and you need to put in a destination. If you don't know where you're going, it doesn't work. You have to know where you want to go and then it calculates the best way. And if there's traffic in the middle or something happened, so then it picks up on it and then it starts rerouting. We found you a better route. We found you another way to still help you get to the destination. The word moed hers explains comes from the word yad. Yahad means destination. The word moed also comes from the word vad getting together. The word moed also comes from the word time. Ka moed the time has come. So there's a set time where we gather together on our journey towards our destination. That is exactly what the moadim are. And how does one get to his destination? Through walking there, through his feet. That's why the three moadim are called shalos regalim that you go there with your raglim. You're able to go and you're able to do your aliel and going to get to your destination. So when we understand that it gives us a picture. Oh, we're not just talking about sukus right now. We're talking about the culmination of the entire GPS system of life because in GPS we know where we're going. But the big question is where is our destination in our life? Where are we going? What is this life all about? Where is it leading us to? How do we get there? That is exactly the GPS system of the Moad. And I'll give you a quick over overview because we want to go straight into sukus. But the quick overview is that we all go through this transition every single year. That's why it's called malash. We go back through this system every single year where there are moments where we feel we're stuck. We're stuck in certain bad habits. We're stuck in certain uh ways that we behave. We want to become a little bit better. We want to break out of a bad relationship. We want to break out of a bad habit. We want to have a breakthrough. We feel that we're in the mim that we're confined by something that is outside of us that is confining us and and it might be inside of us but we feel confined and we want to break free breaking free is pesa and then you got to do the process of spirm doesn't happen like this overnight you know you want to break free you do your first initial step you got to go through the entire process and then shu it's not enough to be free people want to break free from jail and some people they get let out from their captivity after many many years and then they don't know what to do. What do what does one do with his freedom? What am I free for? I could be free from something but what am I free to do? And that's really where Shivas comes in. Here are the core values. This is how you're going to build your society. This is what life is all about. Live a life that is based on these values. Build a society, a community, a country that is based on these values that are God-given values to us at Hari. That is the way you will glorify and bring Hashem's presence into this world. That's what we got on shis. Where do we build that? Init. What is the symbol of the land of Israel? That's sukkot. Sukkot is the place. There's only two mitzvah that you do 247. No matter what it is you're doing, you could be eating, you could be sleeping, could be walking around, and you're doing a mitzvah. Why? Because you're in the mitzvah. You're living in the mitzvah. There's only two mitzvah like that and yes. That's it. All the other mitzvah you have to do an action. You have to do this moving into the suka. You're moving your furniture there. You're sitting there. You're reading. You're taking a nap. You're falling asleep. Whatever it is you're doing, you're doing a mitzvah because you're sitting in the is the same thing. We have the and the merit of living in init or coming to visit for init. We're living here meaning every single day we get up, we go to sleep, we're this that itself is the mid that is the destination. This is where we build our society. That is all based on those values. But what happens along the way? Every once in a while there's a car crash on our way to the destination. We're not able to make it there because something is blocking us. And after we got those core values on our journey to the yahad, when we're gathering together, we were wow what a great moade. We're heading towards our yahad towards the destination. But then a shiny golden object came. We were a little bit unsure. We weren't sure where our leader was. 40 days. He's not here. We're impatient. Are we here yet? We're not here yet. Oh, okay. We I can't wait till tomorrow. I want him now. We want him now. It's not here now. We're going to go do it ourselves. And we went after a golden a golden calf. So, what happened to those core values? Mosheru comes down and he breaks them. And we go into a cycle of chuva. 40 days. Moshe has to go up there and ask for chuva second time. And Hashem says, "Okay, make sure this time they're ready. Blow the chauffeur every single day. I'm going to go up for a third time for 40 days and I'm going to give you a second chance to still make it to your destination." And that's why Hashem gave us the gift of Rashashana, a new beginning, the day in which humanity was created the way of like we spoke. and I could infuse in you a new life. And then comes Yom Kipper where Mosher Rabenu comes down with the second luos, the second chance to build a life and a family and a country and a society based on these values. He comes down with the second lakurin with the message I forgive you is a loving God and therefore he gives us a second chance. doesn't challenge us when we make mistakes. It's normal to make mistakes in Judaism. But we have to take responsibility for our mistakes. We have to look at our mistakes in the eye. We have to say, "We're sorry. We made this mistake. We ruined this." And Hashem says, "I'll give you the and then you'll have a second chance and you're going to start again." The moment we get the second lu tells Ben is now you could build for me a mishkun in which these values could be stored around which you could build the community the society the entire country around this mishkun and together with that you'll go into Israel in the land of Israel when were we given the commandment to build the mishkan when did they start collecting the gold and the silver to collect the mishkan 4 days after yum kiper the day first day of sukus That's when the clouds of glory came back explains the why do we start sukis right after why don't we do it by pes when we left says the grud that's when the clouds of glory came back they came back after we fixed our mistake we did a rerouting and now we're back into our final destination we're able to build a mishkan a dwelling place for in this world we're able to camp and live our entire society around it and we're get ready to march into the land of Israel. That is our final destination. And in our life, we're getting there. It's getting closer and closer. More and more Jews are coming to Israel. And we want to understand what is the ultimate fixing. What are we going for? What is it? What happens on sukus? And that's what I want to delve into theim together with you specifically in this year. This year we have a mitzvah risa on sukus. What is our mitzvah rice on sukus? We have the mitzvah of sitting in the suka. That's a mitzvah. What's our second mitzvah this year on sukus? Arb this year will not be a mitzvah because is only on the first day had to do it the entire seven days in the mikdash. It was mida all seven days and nowadays we're not going to take it on the first day. We're only going to do it the rest of the week. So it's only so what other mitzvah do we have twice appear in of twice that we have the word. It's not right away like the song says it's a few in the middle. It says and you should truly be happy. That's it appears twice in par the mitzvah of and this is really the question of what makes this special every moade in that GPS system in our journey it's very clear what is the the time the energy the frequence that we could tap into is it's the time like we said that you could be mas mean that you could invite into your life an opportunity of of breaking free. It's the time that you can invite into your life the frequency even more higher than every single day because into tapping into the Torah to be the Torah and is for why is why what happened on why because we left why why does that make And when we that happened on PES that's the tour's famous question. Why do we do sukas now? Why don't we do it after after we do it now? Because now is the beginning of the fall. It's not the best time to have a suk and we're showing that we're doing it for but still why is it what happens now that it's question number one. If we want to understand it we have to look at paras. Paras is the para of the mo that we're going to be reading on the first day of sukus. So it says over here like this [snorts] on the 15th day of the seventh month when you gather all of the grains of the land. you should celebrate the the holiday the celebration of Hashem for seven days. I would have thought that that is the reason because we are gathering all of the produce and we're now the way in an agricultural society. This is when I feel I made it. It's like when you get in the end of the year reports, right? Wow, we did really good this year. I became partner by the end of the year in the law firm. the the income from my investments this year when I look at the end of year invest. Wow, this is amazing how much we made this year. So you would think that that's the s in the agricultural society. When did a person understand how much money he made at the time where he gathered in all of the grains into his house and now he has enough food for the rest of the winter and enough food to trade the entire winter. He made it he made a lot of grains. So I would have thought that that is the reason of the it's like that a little bit in and then it starts a new you should be happy. So they seem close even though it's a next I still don't know why am I and in the par it doesn't say when I gather it it says you should celebrate but then listen to what it says after that in the on the first day it's only on the first day It gives me the mitzvah of the and you should be happy in front of Hashem for seven days. Can I trouble you to get the AC unit and to turn this AC on and that one on as well? Is that possible? That will definitely help us out. Tremendous. I don't know why it's not on. Okay. So, so it says over here and you'll be happy in front of Hashem for seven days. So the mitzvah of sim comes in when after the mitzvah of what happens specifically through dalim then now I have sim in my life that's the question what happens and if you look at the like what why is this a reason for sim so we want to know why our final destination is sukus in a certain way if you think about it our final destination is to lead a happy life what do doing everything. We want to be happy and we know that through happiness we get more in our lives because that was our that the come and the come when we're so how do we get to the it's not by just bringing in all the money the end of year reports it's through the mitzvah of what is going on in the mitzvah of dal how does that actually give me real sima. What am I doing here? And if you try to ask someone for the first time that sees the Jewish people on sukus, what in the world are they doing? They're bringing this palm branch and this leaf and that leaf and this citrus fruit and they're going like this and they're what are we doing? Sometimes I like to ask the most basic questions because we're when we get older so the most basic questions become the deepest in Judaism cuz of course we're doing it because that's what we did. That's what we grew up and that's how we understand it and that's what I'm but there's a deeper there's always deeper deeper levels to try to understand what is going on here and how is this going to help us understand what is all about? Why is this this this is going to bring me to Simha? What am I what am I doing? Because that's when the mitzvah of appears in the Torah is after the not after I bring in all the money. >> Where's the itself? We have the other continue. You should therefore sit in the soim continue. They go on to the second mitzvah. It's the only holiday by the way that has two different mitzvah that has the mitzvah of dal and it has the mitzvah of a suka and it says that you should do all this for and you should sit in the suka for seven days you should know because I took you out of mit for seven days and in a certain way we're not going to get into that right now in a certain way those two mitz represent the coming together of the two different cycles the cycle of the shalim and the cycle of rashashana kipperus And therefore they come together when you do both mitzvah together. We're not going to get we can't do everything in one year slowly. Okay. One one thing at a time. One thing at a time. So I want to understand and this is our basic question. Why is the dalim the source of and how is this explaining to us what is the final destination with one aspect that we're going to try to dive into. In order to understand this, I want to compare the way it's brought down in the way it's brought down in the Mishna. The P. What is the order of the P? What's the first thing? What's paid? And then it says Lulov. and the willow branches and then you'll be happy. So it says esrogul had and arose. Let's open up the Mishna in perim. What's the name of the perk? Lulaz. The first Mishna is lulov. The second Mishna is had. The third Mishna is the fourth Mishna. There's a whole Rab says you take three. Rabaka says you said you do 111. How much do you actually take in the f of those first three species? There's a whole discussion. How much do you have to take? Do you take one lulaf? Do you take a lot of adas? You see the the take a lot of sometimes take three. Two. That's how we pass it. But that's the fourth Mishna. The fifth Mishna is then it brings down the why is it like that? Why is the Mishna speaking about the giml and then breaks it up to try to understand how we bind them together because we're going to learn that lul needs to bind them all together and then it has the mitzvah of the by itself and why is it out of order that's question number one another question if you look at the it says preap Look simply at the put between. So says maybe you need to get a that has a esrog inside as well. It's all one together. other if you look at the it doesn't say it says there there's a so you see the way it's written in the actual the Torah is every single letter where is there a comma where is there a VV so the is between the lul the es the lulv theim and the raos and therefore they're together and the estrog is different why are those two those three together and the separate why is that what is the secret behind it and another thing which one is the most hush of out of all them estrog it has the taste it's got the it's got the smell the men spend the most money on the estrog right they're looking at the is the most what's the braha that we actually make lulaf why don't we say alilas esro isn't that the most beautiful part of the whole thing that's what I spent all my money on say is it because it's the tallest it's the most what makes it the most what's going on over here why is there a discrepancy between the and a discrepancy between the and why is it that we make the brah on the lulv and not on the actual esrog itself we have to understand that this is not just a simple root and it's not just a simple let's look again at theim we look at theim this is pre what is this fruit pates what type of fruit is it patesar it's the fruit of the tree That is which one is it? How do I know that it's an what reminds me? So we have my my father did it, my grandfather did it, my great-grandfather did it. Even in times of oppression, they went out of their way and you would have one synagogue would have one estrog and lulov and there is baltose. You're not allowed to add more minim. You're not allowed to take off minim. It has to be exact. You're not allowed to take another fruit. We were able to keep it the misor all the way from Mosher Rabenu. What exactly it is that this is an esrogue and this is the and this is and this is but still why is it written in this way pre just say pates esrogue right and why is it called pates it should be called prerogue the fruit of an esrogue why is it called pates esrog the way the far bring this down is that this is reminding us this already brought brought down in the it's reminding us of the first tree. The first tree when you look at theim of the first tree what does it say by the isha she looks at it in batious gimmel the isha is in and she sees this tree and she says says the eight is a beautiful tree to eat and there's a it's beautiful for the eyes and she takes from it and she gives it to her husband before when the world was created and this is already on the third day when created the world the way it's written down in the is that says to the earth. We're reading the third day of creation. Ori let the fruits of the land come out. It should be pre a fruit tree. Ori that makes fruits. So it was called pre ori. And then what does it say? The eight the land went against the of said pre [clears throat] a fruit tree that gives fruits and it says that the land gave a tree o sepri there's already in the creation of the trees of the land we see that there is a friction between the tree itself and the fruit of the tree. God commanded eight pri a fruit tree that gives fruits and the land brought out trees that bring fruits and the way the mafaram explain is that the initial trees the taste of the tree Tom ate shim that the the taste you would eat the fruit itself and you could taste in the in the tree itself what the fruit would taste like that's the first time that we see this concept of pio and then who created the trees in look to what it says. Hashem is only speaking about about the trees and it doesn't speak about the fruits. You should eat from all the trees but from the tree of knowledge you shouldn't eat. speaking about the trees, it's not speaking about the fruits. And only later on when comes, so it says the snake tells the is The isha is the first one to start speaking about the fruits separate from the tree itself. Speaks about the trees and the isha is speaking about the fruits of the tree. And at the end of the day, she sees this beautiful tree and she takes from the fruit and she eats and then we know what happens. That's the sin. The explained to us that this eating of the tree and the Raan brings this down that which tree was it? It was theadas. What fruit was on theadas? There's a mlo in the gimar >> but says the Ramban >> that the eight had was an esro tree that she took from the esrog tree because she took from a tree that Tom ate aio shave and we know that that's one of the characteristics that describe what is a prear. So there's two characteristics. It needs to be a paid where the tom ate a io shoving where the fruit and the tree have a similar taste. And it needs to be a hadar a type of fruit that stays on the tree doesn't fall by the end of the season and that's an esroer tree. That's why the emmonites have such large esro. If you leave it on another year, another year it just keeps on growing. It's very unique only to the esrog tree. That's how we know that this is the citrus fruit that the Torah commanded. But what is the depth over here? What's going on over here? This is the raan. If you look at the Ramban, where is it? Says the Ramban. This is the here. Whenever the Raan says, he's referring to the the majority of desire is through this tree. And that was the sin of the the was in the esro tree and we're going to atone for this initial sin through the dal. What's going on over here? How do we atone through the dal? what is the process that we're doing and what is the significance of it behind it. So says that and we want to go a little bit deeper into this. We have to understand what are the four elements that we're taking because the Torah not only describes the fruits, it describes an element in which we're taking a part of the tree cuz trees have four different parts to it and we're actually taking all four different parts and in a certain way what we're doing is creating a reconstruction of the tree and of the fruit of the tree. And I'll just read that in Cavanos in sukus says we're gonna read just a few lines. We're not going to go into the cabalistic part but we're going to go into what that is trying to teach us. He says that the four are the four letters of says that and this we know there's a certain okay we're not there's a certain dream that turned to one of theadikim in and he said, "I had a dream last night that you're tearing apart Hashem's name and you're removing the hay from the other letters of of Hashem's name." And he said, "What's behind it? Are you shaking your dalim like this separately?" Meaning the is teaching us that the mitzvah is that you have the dal gimmel in one hand bound together with eged. And the other thing that you have is an esrogue, but you need to keep them together at all time. By keeping them together, you're glorifying Hashem's name in this world. Now, what does that mean? The three elements of the dal minim are a reconstruction of a tree. What are the three elements of a tree? You need to have the branch, the original, the how do you say gza, the trunk, you need to have the trunk, you need to have the branches, and you need to have the roots. That's what a tree is made out of. The roots come, they bring in water. You have the trunk and you have the branches. And on the branches, you have the fruits. That's the fourth element of every single tree. If you look at what the teach us, that's going to be the fruit. It doesn't just say that it should be a tree of it needs to be capar means the trunk. In fact, the only How could you take a tree and shake a tree? You can't take a whole tree. There's only one tree that you can take a part of the branch of the of the trunk and actually shake it. And that is the only tree in all of existence is the tree of a palm tree. Cuz how does it grow? You have a palm tree. The branch that comes out in the middle, by the way, you have to take it when it's all closed. when it's kapat, you can't take it when it's a branch. You have to take it when it's in its initial form. It's actually grow growing straight out of the trunk. So, it's the extension of the next layer of a trunk. Now, if you get it too late, it turns into a branch. And then eventually, by the way, when the branches die out, they fall down and then that's why a palm tree looks like this. It's all old branches that rejoin the trunk of the actual palm tree. Meaning the lulv is not a leaf, it's a trunk. It's the trunk of the palm tree is actually the lulv uh leaves that we take or whatever you call it. Cuz it's not a branch. It's a >> frond. >> A frond. >> First time I'm hearing that word. It's a I have to speak to my wife. My wife understands English. She knows the words better. I don't know. She's a >> with an F. >> Front. Yeah. Okay. It's a trunk. You're shaking a trunk. You're actually holding a whole tree by taking the lulaf. That's number one. Number two, there is and by the way, it's also a unique branch itself. Even when it's a leaf that it goes and all the leaves go straight out of it, it's a unique tree in all of its in all of the trees. And then you take the ultimate branch. The ultimate branch is a branch that is and that's why it says the anafos. It doesn't just say you take the eights of those. It says anaf. It's a branch of a willow tree which is why is it the ultimate? Because the leaves cover it. So it's the most beautiful type of branch that you have in all of creation. And then it doesn't actually speak about roots, but it does say the aral. It's the aros of the of the stream. Now the aravos the way they survive is that they're next to the nal and therefore they're connected to the water and that is the representation of the roots. So in a certain way what we're doing is we are reconstructing a tree in our hand. We're taking the branch the the trunk we're taking the anaf the most beautiful branch that there is in all of creation. We're taking the roots and you can't just shake a whole tree. But what we've done is reconstruct a tree. And now that we've reconstructed a tree, we're adding the fruit back to the tree and we're shaking it together. What are we doing here? We have a picture now of of the general picture, but what's the significance of this picture? What are we trying to accomplish when we bring in all of our produce at the end of the year? It's a but a doesn't necessarily translate into sim unless you go through this process. There is reason to celebrate but celebration doesn't always turn into happiness and into a complete whole person that feels simh in his life. There's many people who have a lot of money. They might have but they're not living. What does it take to live? That is the process of the dal the meaning. What happened the kava was that she disconnected the fruit from its source and the way wanted all the trees of humanity to be that you could see the tree and you could see that this is the hashem. is directly from Hashem. That when you're eating a fruit, you're eating, you're connecting to Hashem, you're elevating Hashem's Bria. You're seeing everything in the Bria is from We said this as okay, I want I want to end it on time also, but we said this as as a intro to Rashashana. You know, you we do in the beginning of Russash. This year I had a new a newish a new a new aana um from one of my he he uh he wrote about this and he he said like this when someone when a Jew loses an object you need to have two things in order to bring the object back. Number one is that the person who lost it doesn't give up hope. There's no Y if he's mis so then it's it's heer pretty much. And number two when you find an object you need to make sure that there is sim on it so that you could return the object back to its official source cuz otherwise when you show it to him how would you know that it's his? you need to find sim to return to. So he said this is the of why we start rash with because the whole year hashem's world you say how do you say world in Hebrew the world hashem is hidden from the world but in a certain way if we as human beings did not do our tapid the world got lost from hashem because the world that is that he created can't find hashem and we're not finding hashem in creation. So we got lost and therefore the world got lost because if the Jewish people are not doing their job so the world doesn't know that this whole world belongs to Hashem. So what do we start off in the beginning of Russashana? We start finding sim in the bria that show that this apple is not just an ordinary apple. Hashem put his mark in every single apple around the world. And you know what the of are how beautiful the Jewish people are. The simmon of the apple is that the Jewish people will have a beautifully happy sweet new year. The simmon of the pomegranate is that the Jews are malleos karimon that they're gonna have zuos like a remmon. And what are we doing in the beginning of Russia? We're saying hashem we see you in the bria. We see you in that pomegranate. We see you in the fish. We're not just eating fish. This fish represents that you left a simmon there that it's yours. And the simmon is that we should be a head and we shouldn't be a tail. That we should have a lot of children like fish. We're seeing you everywhere in the bria. When a person is so there's the that he's gonna start and say he's gonna have but he's gonna forget the source of it what [clears throat] was that she went for the fruit that was that was looked so beautiful and so sweet and therefore I want to celebrate I want to have but when you disconnect it from its source there's no sim you lose that inner sense of what are we doing all of this for? What is the meaning of our life? But if you're able to put it back and [snorts] connect it to the source and to say this is all from Hashem, I see in your world. This is your world and I'm elevating it and I'm lifting it. So then we're so it says she sees the fruit and how beautiful it is and how sweet it is. She takes it and she eats it and she eats and she gives it to her husband. What do we do? What is our mitzvah? Pates other take that fruit but don't eat it for a whole week. We're not going to eat it. We're just gonna focus on the whole reconstruction of the tree and that the fruit is from Akareshu and it's the most beautiful fruit and the most beautiful tree and we're going to shake it and we're going to say this whole entire world is yours and we're not going to eat it. We're going to be the of by taking the dalim by taking the same exact fruit of the and shaking it and not eating it. Not until the end of the shivas, not until the end of the week because we're reconstructing. We're it's a we're living it. We're living the the of the and therefore we're we're incorporating into our mindset that everything around us is a and the way it's brought down in the gimar used to walk around with the dalaminium all the time. Our my family's minimal in the in the suka even before and then we hold it. As a kid I was always like this is so hard why are we holding now it's like you hold it the entire domin. min is the only you shake before hal you hold it for hal you put it back down and it's like me and my brothers are the only ones we're holding it the whole it's a little bit of min but it's to incorporate within us that we are restoring the fruit back onto the tree and we're showing that everything is from a from the source that gives us a certain sense of sima of tranquility and it goes one one step further we know that there's a that the women eat from the esrogue after the shivas after the after sukus. Some say in some sar it's brought down to eat it on hosana raba. Some say no don't take it. It's still kusher for a mitzvah the entire day of hosan raba. So don't take it on rabba. So you take it right after. What is it a skulla for? For an easy child birth. >> Why is that theula for an easy child birth? Cuz after the of the because she disconnected the fruit from the tree without knowing it. And by the way, it was the same for for a man. The the sin the punishment was a palot of the actual you want to be fruitful and bring children to the world, it's going to be a much harder process. You want to be fruitful and make money in this world and create and have a paraza, it's going to be much harder. But there's a that if you eat from the fruit that a man that shook it the entire week and that's his goola for shea and as the raban says for parnasa and for gishm and it's one of the skoolas to actually have shea and parnasa. But you take the same school and you give it to the Isa. And it was known that Kany is Rebbitson used to make jam out of the esrog and give it out to ladies when they were pregnant. They would come, they would wait online, can I get a little bit of the jam that Rabbits and Kanye made from and every day she would give him another to shake because there were so many women who wanted the thing. So every day on Sukis, he was shaking another little and she was making jam for all of the women of Amra cuz it was a schooler for easy child birth. Where did that come from? because we're able to reconnect everything back to the source. When we understand that everything is from the source, our is our children are and it comes from a place of so there's a during the time of bringing in but only comes if you're able to connect it back to the source. And I'll take it one step further. If you look at the Look at theim of the punishment for I don't know if I have this down here. Look at theim. Okay, it says theim like this. What is the punishment? How many times does it say by it says and also with that we started two in par one in par three times it says if you look this word look at the it's all about pain and it says with sadness is sadness you will bring children. And then by the man it says the word sadness appears three times. Twice by the one by the man. and the of all of the three is if we're able to bring the eight the pre back to back to the source we're able to show this entire tree is from you're it's an eight pre it's a tree of fruits and this pre is eight pre separates all back from the tik of the third day of creation and we're living our life with this consciousness with this understanding and we're able to enjoy our kids and our beautiful suk and our beautiful homes and we're able to celebrate all of it but all of it we're saying this is from Hashem Hashem are everywhere in the bria hashem and the mitzvah is to enjoy it doesn't mean to be removed from it the mitzvah is to live in your suka like you're living in have a beautiful home here have the children over, have a beautiful suka, everything that and that is the sim that you're living it and you're enjoying and you're bringing out the food and you're bringing out the dishes and you're bringing out and that is our final destination in our GPS system. All Hashem wants from us is that we should enjoy this world. But the ultimate way for us to enjoy this world that it's not just a temporary but rather it's that we enjoy this physical world with Hashem's with Hashem's consciousness all the time within us and we see it in the Bria and therefore the way the values that we got out of our are guiding the way we build our family and our society and we're helping the poor and the needy we're inviting them into the suk we're just living an entirely different reality like oh this is what life is about when we're z to live on this frequency then we're hitting the goal and the destination and then is going to say I'm going to bring down which is called is the the place of the dwelling of it's the and then we feel it even more because if we're able to create that feeling in this world so then hashem says you're ready to experience it on a higher level and then our level of sim is going to be so much higher and this is what we're dabbing for. This is what we're dabbing when we're saying that we want to be as one people united with Hashem's consciousness in every aspect of our life. May we be to have it this coming year and also sucasales. Amen. >> Amen.
