alright so let's talk basically we're
going to be having a Tonya class and
will do is we will start from the
beginning and go through the book but
I'd like to just start from the middle
for today and the reason is i want to
give you like a little image map of
where we're going with this overview
yeah well more like i love it oh you
more like a destination you know what to
go to go what to go to go what the goal
is and i think that will give us a very
good perspective about you know about
Tanya so Tanya happens to be it's the
recall the the Bible of mysticism in the
Habad world and it's interesting that
the way just as brief introduction way
tanya was actually put together was you
know the alter rebbe the first combat
Robbie he was a you'd call a modern-day
you know spiritual guru or you know a
spiritual healer and people would come
to him literally from all over the world
to seek you know Council and he would
counsel them based on the teachings of
Kabbalah mysticism and as more people
start to come to him guess what happens
no time to really you know address
everyone in their needs so comes along
the outer bearings you know guess what I
didn't really want to write this down
you know in writing but I see we really
have no choice so I'm going to put
together you know a book a book of my
thoughts and into into writing and in
the introduction which will do when we
do the introduction he makes a request
of all the students that have studied
you know mysticism depth that even
though you know it's a book the benefit
of book is that you don't to say have to
wait in line you can always have it
handy in every single room in every
single house and work you can always
have the book and
but now the one you know could really
comprehend the book so therefore he's
asking students that have studied in
depth you know people come to this
discuss with you and ask you advice you
know based on what they read so
obviously you should try to you know to
help them now tanya is basically a very
very deep complex study and it really
you know point I want to make is that
you know up until I study Tanya you know
a lot of things I never understood
really well a lot of things bothered me
and it really was like a
transformational shift in really being
able to understand myself and being able
to understand other people and answer a
lot of questions you know difficult
questions that I've had as a youngster
and it really has been a tremendous eye
opener and obviously wants you you know
you study time user base from there you
can go on to study many many other
things now what I mean to say is like
this you know one of the revolutionary
breakthroughs a tiny introduces is as
follows and by way of introduction to
the Directioners is as follows there's
something in which we all know that you
want to make sure a system is true
system is true so how do we know it's
true so we all know that the Torah was
given to us by God and the toy that was
given to us by God it's called the torch
back south main stage was written down
God struck the Moses it was written down
and ever since then anytime you write a
Tory if the right you copy from a
previous tours and you you monitor to
make sure there's no mistakes and this
way you make sure there's 100% authentic
so the tour is considered the Bible and
it's something which can be changed or
altered it's like almost impossible
because you know the readers reading in
shabbat we makes a mistake what everyone
having how much making catch him on it
so there's no there's no way you can
slip anything in or you can pick
anything out and say they even computer
check it and so on and so forth now the
talmud on the other hand originally was
written it was only those only be able
to study orally the benefit that people
will get the study the downside was that
obviously they can leap a stick things
in but but the the checks and balances
was that you always have to go back and
try some
actually to the five books of Moses now
in the five books of Moses it's a
powerful godly book in a sense that when
you study it you can study it and every
time you study you'll find new treasures
in there it has you know magical
infinite way of growing by leaps and
bounds now when you study with the five
books of Moses so first of all this you
know four different so to speak we say
before different lenses you know you
have a clear lens you pink lens of blue
lens of red lens so when you study the
five books of Moses there's literally
like a certain like sort of at attitude
or way of thinking four different way of
thinking one is something which is
called chopped simple simple
understanding of it the other one is REM
is more like you know like different
hinz and codes etc josh is more like
homiletic you know interesting stories
etc and then there's so to speak which
is called soul which is a secret the
secret of the Torah so in other words so
the secret to the tone what does that
mean that means anything that you study
in Tanya or in anywhere mysticism you'll
be able to trace it back to the secrets
of the Torah so everything is based on a
version of Torah so the Tanya comes in
with the revolutionary idea again which
is all trace back there tomorrow and he
brings the sources when we do that
chapter will do one death but just for
today's dimension it is the fact is that
every single Jewish person has an
animalistic soul and a godly soul and
again when we do Tanya those chapters
you'll see in depth the structure of the
soul and so on and so forth but the
point is every single person has an
animal salt and a godly soul now what
does that mean practically what that
means it is what's a soul what is the
soul a soul is basically the the
spiritual the spiritual life force that
we have and that's the driving force
almost like the basically the engine to
a car so in other words every single
person operates with a twin-engine a
twin-engine you have an engine that
drives your animal soul your animal
instinct which basically survival and as
if you
wanted a walk from here to the other
room wherever it may be if you don't
have the engine how you going anywhere
you're not so the neshamah the
animalistic soul is basically the engine
that will drive you from point A to
point B and we all have that without
that we can't move we all have that now
the engine the animalistic engine is not
bad it's animalistic mean to say is it's
after survival it needs to eat it needs
to drink obviously needs a house
transportation and so on and so forth
the definition of this engine is you
ever see an animal like a cow any type
of animal right when it walks has it
walk where's the face facing facing down
what does that mean facing down so even
though that's its structure but
spiritually what does it mean when it
faces down the only thing a thinks about
is itself itself it thinks about itself
it does not think about anyone else the
only way it will actually think about
someone else is if there's a vested
interest for themselves so if you want
to take an animal and have to do work
it's not going to do the work it's going
to do the work one or two reasons either
you're going to beat it so it doesn't
want to get hit more or you're going to
feed it the negative of the positive but
only you stop feeding it stops working
you stop harnessing if it stops working
that's the way an animal works that's
the and we each have that got that
animal soul within us so we each have
within us let's think the godly so we'll
get to the guard lease on a minute we
each have within us an animal soul it
means we want the animals all to move
you feed it it could be food it could be
honor it could be money other pleasures
anything so why is it doing it very
simple
it's called feeding the meter you see
the meter the meter runs doesn't mean
bad and good it just it could be that it
could be good it could be neutral the
point is it is self-centered okay now if
God gave us an animal soul that'll be
fine but God gave us a second engine and
that is called what the GAVI sold this
godly saw that God gave us is godly what
does anybody's called Li what's the
driving force sonic carrot it's not
money sound on it what is it that love
gobby it basically will do whatever is
godly intent is it means anything that's
in the Torah anything that's a mitzvah
anything to help somebody anything to
make godliness more felt in the world I
think it's a godly act it's on a high so
certain people get on a heart the
animals will gets on a high from a good
piece of food or could drink the godly
soul gets on a high from helping
somebody from connecting to God from
cleaving to God so here you have two
engines in how many buddies one is your
11 body problems you have one set of
hands one set of feet one head one mind
right woman heart so who is a neat for
exact you have a car right every car
usually has one steering wheel who's the
driver of the car one person you have
two drivers can't you have two drivers
convention we had two drivers right and
one was a teenager and one was no one
who fits that category but let's say a
senior citizen over the age 65
right there she has over someone over 65
that lived his life he's relaxed right I
just want to go too fast right and you
have two people two people in the car
the teenager and the senior citizen
sitting in the car and they both want
the wheel they both want the wheel now
while you both want the wheel because
the senior citizen wants to go slowly
the speed limit is 50 32 right now does
look like anyone's here well we're on to
that right yeah right so they want to go
slowly no while turns you know a normal
ride is not in a rush if we get to
tomorrow it's also good you don't forget
that today right you don't takes five
minutes to get there there's no rush a
lot a lot of patience teenager can't
wait to air right now the problem is one
steering wheel and they each appreciate
strongly the way they drive they both
want the wheel now if the in the car
versus that just instinct to senior
citizens no problem be a beautiful ride
two teenagers also a beautiful ride two
different two different experiences but
it'll be a beautiful ride the problem is
you put two different people with
different worlds of agendas in the same
car and they both want the wheel guess
what each and every one of us has that
within us
each and every one about each ever has
had within us think about that and once
I learnt that that was like that was
like the biggest breakthrough I've had
from spiritual breakthrough I realized
why some days I wake up I'm an excited
to go to use visa and some days I want
to sleep in and so many examples that
you can all you know relate to your own
personal lives and I understood people
like why one day you know someone's
always in while the one dating guy is
like normal and behavior right because
you think people are like schizo right
you don't realize that people have a lot
to deal with they have two forces
powerful forces we're not talking up a
Civ forces we're talking a too strong
powerful forces within you within each
and every one of us they both want to
grab that one wheel and who gets the
wheel of it gets burlier programs that
are whoever can force the other one out
whatever it may be so Tania basically as
introduction in the first two traps
netanya introduces these two souls and
goes into it length which we're going to
go back when the study in depth because
it's really important to know who we are
because commanding now you know you are
oh you say oh that's the animals are
dogging it's the galleys all talking
okay and then once you know who you are
and you know the expressions of it the
way it infiltrates in your mind in your
thought in your speech in your action
again time you goes through at length
which we're going to go through step by
step but i figure around they give you
like a big picture today so you can have
an outline of the map and then we're
going to take pieces i want to go to it
in depth
and it's really profound because it
literally chose you who we are first of
all a lot of things we don't even know
we had them a lot of things we didn't
mean OH who knew that you had to go out
two souls within you and they're both
fighting for one wheel I mean these are
this like breakthrough ideas and either
way out it's true once a person figures
out who he is now we can start living
you can at least choose to live now you
can lose choose to live so and here is
where so to speak we called the test
what is the test to see if you
ultimately can create the balance what I
mean to say is like this the reality is
that the godly soul is not going away
and the animals are not going away and
throughout life it's a struggle we want
to be more godly but the other hand we
canna Cano in other words the senior
says and knows he cannot ignore a
teenager because he's the future the
teenager knows he needs the senior
citizen because that that's basically
who brought him here that's who's
basically giving him his whole life so
another was like this the godly soul
needs the animal song why no animal soul
no engineering goes from here to there
the animal soul really wants to godly
soul because when he has the godly soul
and think guess what he feels happy if
he has a piece and it feels connected so
they really each need each other and how
do you make it work and it's really a
struggle according to tiny it's a
struggle every single day every single
hour and sometimes every moment
then tiny comes along says okay the
reality is where's the play out where's
the play out so it plays out a in your
level of joy and there's a whole big
section which we're going to get to in
the process of how a coin titania it
shows you how a person can really really
and sincerely experience true inner
happiness true true and a half
and when a person experienced in our
happiness it's the biggest gift I'm not
talking external happens coming from
something external now here is where the
interesting part is just like we have
the god lease on the animals so from
within now guess what throw into the mix
you married to your spouse you have kids
parents friends neighbors people in your
community associates you know business
acquaintances so kamancheh land two
people get together how people do we
have you got for and you have eight
people getting together native 16 people
so one in one makes four exactly so a
ECI Casey and the problem if you're
dealing with one balance for another
balance but fine but everyone is so
imbalance how do you create balance so
one simple way is saying guess what
guess what who says we have to get along
right we can be crazy but we all know
that a doesn't work and be the tourist
sets the bar the Torah says no no we're
going to set the bar right now guess
what you have an obligation to get along
with everybody not only obligation to
get along with everybody you have an
obligation to love everybody whoa but
not only give to love everybody and this
is where it gets very very interesting
the weight or puts the bar here towards
you know you know you should love
everybody guess what you don't you love
them huh excessively the same way you
love yourself the same way the same way
you love yourself what does that mean
practically when you're hungry when
you're hungry right you somehow find a
way to get food to your system correct
so you have to walk because you felt
that you were hungry
you have to have to feel someone else's
hunger first true truly it's Lydia song
choice but the same way you love
yourself you have to love yes absolutely
to love yourself but the same way you
love yourself you have to love the other
person for example let's see something
good happens to you you're ecstatic
you're happy you after the same
happiness when something good happens
like that for someone else and then do
you know you got there so now why is
love extremely important because when
you really love another human being that
sort of speak the test you got it that
you're happy with yourself and more
importantly you're happy with no human
being and I was like this does that not
elevate the animal soul to absolutely
sure with us yeah call eats everything
so comes along tinyint at me is like
this there's three areas of love what's
the three areas of love one is loving
another human being now who's the other
human being any Irving not your friends
any human being to be able to love every
single human being as a tourist has do
you have to record this is again it's
not Tiny's explaining it but the
commandment is Natur oh the a half
gloria her car mocha to love every
single human being just like you love
yourself just like you love yourself
that's a tall order that's one love
there's another love what's the other
love
love Torah God gave you the Torah it's
always a gift from God someone gives you
a gift it's a transient gift today it's
worth something tomorrow it's not worth
anything every in 20-30 years become an
antique dome come work or something and
then no one's interested again right but
the Torah is something which has been
around for thousands of years we all
know that when you study Torah you feel
great when you file it or you feel even
better so the Torah is what it's the
biggest gift God gave you given to you
by God so we have to love the Torah and
the more you love the Toyota mode the
Torah can have an effect on you and as
the tour is basically like a stranger
how's it going to help you if you don't
know if you don't believe in the Torah
hack on the tour help you so it's not
just a commandment to love the Torah
it's that when you love the Torah now
you connect it to the toe and you have a
better relationship with them the lines
of communications opened and therefore
it will help you and you'll be able to
connect together exactly correct then
there's a third love what's the third
love love of God right you have to love
God and it's in the Sh'ma right there
after I saw someone walking full of God
what does that mean you love God very
simple you love God you have a
connection with God a deep connection
you would do anything for God as a smart
says mahalo valve clever call national
Mandela with yall heart you know it's
all with your whole night so these are
all three loaves comes along mysticism
message says guess what
every one of these three loves is
connected and you cannot have one
without the other and now becomes really
challenging people taste I love God I
would do anything for God my friend
forget about it my neighbor my sister my
cause it whatever it's something else
right I love God but I mentioned I don't
like certain Commandments right have you
hear this huh whatever it is they're
exactly whatever whatever they whatever
to whatever the mounds are you hear this
all day long so what do we say no no if
you love God then you have to love the
Torah have to love everyone cuz of any
question who gave who wrote a Toro who
gave you a tour of God so you like gob
you don't like his product who created
all these people God so you like coffee
you don't like you don't like the people
he created right so it means if you
don't like somebody what you're really
saying is what not only don't you like
the person you actually lost your other
love in life which is God well now you
have nobody evil you know the toy aren't
God if nothing so in other words love if
it's real it's to God etcetera and it's
all the people so someone you cease only
love God right and they pray correct and
they commit it to God but they don't get
along people guess what now that we
shouldn't be judging don't get me wrong
for yourself you know if you're on fire
and you love God and you just don't like
people guess what you know you don't
really love God true but you really
don't love God saying that you love God
you don't like the people you're missing
something
right if you love God in the Torah fine
two out of three and wanting to do I
love god i love the tour I sit and study
Torah all day right and I pray and I do
charity and everything but certainly I
don't like guess what you don't love God
you know the Torah it's like it's like
having like you know I got a bracelet
that has three three rings if one of
them is opened you don't have a bracelet
anymore you have three hoops whatever
you want to call them it's not a
bracelet a bracelet my definition means
if it's made out of three rings this one
is connected to the other so if one of
them is opened or one is broken or one
of them is off there is no more bracelet
it's take it all I was on take all of it
it's all nothing it's kind of like
though because the god part of us we
love ourselves we've gotta love the
other two I mean it stands to me it
stands to be because we are God's
children are in God and God is in us
guys Torah and they therefore it just
follows yes but it has to be you know I
agree in theory it follows yeah man the
question is how do we make it how to
make a practical ha you know how do we
look how do we actually live it how do
we actually live it I seeing done and
everyone what ok fine so yes how do you
have a war criminal how do you love
someone yes that and that we will wield
a with that soon that's a good question
and we'll get to that soon no we'll get
to that soon but let's first get to the
first point let's get the very first
part down right no it's a good question
we will get there it's up soon at the
first part so the first part is if you
love god and it's real you're going to
love the Torah any love the people if
you don't love the people there's
something week and you love for God
if you don't love the toad or something
leaving certainly we can love for God
now what happens on person I love all
people i don't want god i love the TOA
that's very rare by the way that's very
rare but the reality is the reality is
if somebody really those people he
automatically will love tour under God
it just he made us here I never really
studied talk enemy really learned about
God but he automatically by definition
will love tour in love God okay so now
the real question is what is missing in
the link how people can love God pray
and study but have an issue with other
people how could we love everybody so
comes along Tanya tiny comes along and
comes with it with a an answer an
insight as follows what do we say before
every one of us is really cheap our
human being warming to about you mean we
have our physical body and we are soul
or if you said before the animal soul in
the godly so now
everything that really exists in the
world has two parts to it you have the
physical component any of the spiritual
part of it so let's let's give an
example right and we spoke about a
little on yom tov for those that were
there you have let's say for example you
have lighting shabbos candles all right
see the physical lighting and candles
and then you have the spirit that brings
into the Shabbat the same thing also a
human being every human being has the
physical component of the human being
the person's physical body which
represents a course human being that
basically is physical and just want to
pursue themselves and their own
interests and we also have what the
godly soul within us now if for example
two people get together and each one so
to speak is just came by their own
self-interest is they really into unity
no at most you'll have a partnership if
it works for me and it works for you if
it were in business the minute it stops
working for me and for you it's over
that's called at most a partnership but
then there's when two people get
together it's just when they get
together who's getting together how many
people do go get there we go getting
together for people there's four forces
they get it together so when two people
get together so we have four people here
so it is so basically it's two people
each one is each person has two parts so
if the physical is meeting up the
physical at most you'll have as a
partnership but what happens if you're
coming to meet somebody and really what
you're trying to meet is what the spirit
the spirit of the other women being
so what happens when you're dealing with
the spirit now is the spirit physical is
a spirit selfish or is the spirit
basically selfless and really the part
of God that we each have this is part of
God so now when two people come together
here if you have to you'll come together
and let's say for example here there's
one there's one parking spot right and
there's two car there's two cars coming
for this one spot is it possible for
both in together impossible so if this
car parks here no the other car can get
there if the other one one here this one
can get there can they share the spot
you can't share the spot however in the
world of the Spirit go to p 2 people
spur take up the same space yes I'm not
a contradiction to you you're not a
contradiction me hey let's do it
together how you can't explain it in the
physical work at the physical world two
things can take one spot in the
spiritual world two things could take
one spot so when two people meet and the
two physical human beings meet there's
not gonna be any love there it's not
going to be loved at most of the
partnership but when two people meet and
yeah it's the physical bodies that are
bringing them but really what's meeting
is a spirit that's when you can have
what a real relationship that's when you
can have one is that's what you can have
real love so in other words satanic
makes a revolutionary statements and
says when two people meet if to these
two people the most important part is
their physical body their animal self
love is not going to be there yeah
they'll get along to help each other
partnership whatever you want to call it
love will not be there not going to work
however if when these two people need
what's meeting yeah it's true to your
own veyance but what's really meeting
the spirit is meeting that's when love
can rest and flourish flourish
if love if the spirit is what's coming
together so Tanya says when two people
meet and you want love what has to be
coming to the table a spirit the godly
soul so in other words like this when
someone prays
it's very possible to praying for what
although all their needs the praying for
all their needs for the glades so to
them and it's about them and there's no
spiritual aspect fear whatsoever and
therefore when it comes to getting along
with somebody else it's not going to
work because they never brought to the
table their spirit they never brought to
the table God godliness was all about
them so even though it looks like prayer
we see but it really isn't it's them
coming with a shopping list coming for a
shopping list it's not really cleaning
to God and therefore when it comes to
the love between one another what
happens it doesn't work however if what
they're really praying they're really
getting rid that they're not bringing
their shopping list they want to cleave
the god they're bringing the spirit so
what's the problem they meet someone
else the same thing so if they're if
you're bringing your physical self your
animal soul to the table it might look
like a prayer it might look like Torah
study but it's really not and if where
is it play out where do you see the
proof in the pudding how you get along
with other people but on the other hand
if you're able to get along with other
people by definition so you have to
really get along with somebody else see
according to tying it's very simple to
people cannot really get along and have
real love if they're physically coming
together because it's tubulin beings
they have to get together and they have
to be in sync if I'm here and you're
here into the physical parts there's
always you can create sink the only way
you can create sink if you leave the
bodies behind conceptually and the
spirit meets and the spirit you can
think up so once the spirit is seeking
out syncing up then you can love God
right you can love the Torah you can
love another human being it doesn't make
doesn't make them as who the person is
so the real question is
when you're coming to the table who who
is coming to the table is it your
physical self or is it a godly support
if it's the physical part you might be
successful you might be conquer you
might just do that whatever you're going
to do real love is not going to be there
it's impossible you want real love leave
your physical body out leave your
animals sold-out show up spiritually and
now we're talking love and now we're
talking relationships and once that
theer love will be in all levels with
God with Torah study with the other
young being think about practically you
sit down another human being and it's
all about you where's the room for
somebody else there isn't sitting he's
trying to study Torah but you have all
your ideas what Torre should have been
written like you know ever sit down you
know IIT CH classes so certain people
they know all the answers they have all
the questions and they don't just they
don't listen for a minute you know that
Miss after the class they don't learn
anything how can you learn something if
you only wanted to hear yourself in
class you come to pray the prayer
service is boring sure was boring you
never empty out the vessel come with an
empty vessel you'll walk a little
something you might not always walk wait
a full cup you look at something but if
you didn't walk away with something it's
only because the vessel was an empty if
you're a full cup how you put into the
in there get rid of the cop there's
stuff this in the cup sit in and you'll
get something if you have a full cup and
you put it outside is warped more water
going to go in there if you have an
empty cup even though it's dry but
eventually when arranged you guys hold
up now have to pray hard but eventually
we filled up so it's almost puts down a
very very simple solution or simple
remedy or simple plan you want real love
in your life now let's love with
yourself lovely the spouse a child a
parent a friend love across the board
gone
tura you want love get the body out get
the animal soul out and you here for one
thing regardless holes here once the
godly soul is here skies are based on
that who can you love you got anybody in
other words it's it's the other person's
really never the problem it's really
when you're coming in are you pushing
through one out right or are you coming
at empty vessel there's a famous story
guy comes to the round body complaining
it is rabbi everybody descending August
bothering me most high-end Sarah Rachel
everybody hasn't showed everybody right
I mean everyone's a problem everybody in
the community is a problem any other
legitimate reasons he hasn't reasons why
everyone's like it's not working out
with everybody and everyone's always the
other guys at fault and he has valid
excuses what do you do with a guy that
there are mice is very simple robber
except to him nicely who asked you to
spread yourself out all over the
shoulder everyone's a problem you know
then you you took up everyone seat and
everyone is telling you they need this
place maybe if you had like one seat
rather didn't have your stuff all over
the place don't what you don't any don't
would be like no only be like bothering
you so usually when you have an issue
with everybody or whoever it may be it's
usually because you basically is too
much of you there I don't the spiritual
physical part of you now so that's
basically the the first part of 30
second chapter of Tanya with the altar
which introduces this revolutionary
concept to allow yourself
to tone down the physical tone down the
animal soul and bring in the spirit now
unfortunately a lot of people go through
life because you need to survive with
becoming machines machines of what of
producing and because you can't machine
and producing you forget about the
spirit now you might become a good
production machine you'll work hard and
you'll study hard and you'll yell a mass
stuff and you'll achieve stuff etc guess
what happens it's all about you and you
forget that you have a godly soul and
you forget yamila me and then what
happens you can't go wrong with anybody
and that's why it's important as you
educate yourself and add you you gotta
practice humility and practice the
spirituality and bring in the godly
pneus this way you can be successful but
also get built to get along with anybody
and everybody could you imagine if
you're able to be friendly with anybody
in the world let me think about this you
think could you can you think it's
possible yeah absolutely it's possible
what but it's once and it's one simple
ingredient you don't need to have 20
different languages and recipes and
remedies if you basically just open up
guess what happens the other person's
open up to you now let's talk about the
second issue second issue and here it
gets a little Wednesday complicated but
here gets a little more involved and
that goes as follows obviously from our
part from my part everyone's part I love
everybody everyone's wonderful what do
you mean walk rock reading them whole
Who am I not going to like God trade
everybody and everything remember the
minute you say I don't like this person
really you saying is I don't like the
Creator I don't like God and you know
like yourself either because you have a
part of you in that person but now here
comes a real issue let's see somebody is
not behaving appropriately
and it could be extremist one to ten
from a1 to all the way you know if to
attend you know going on for example
right now in Israel and so on and so
forth the other parts of the world so
the question is very simple do you love
them because God created them or do you
not like them like do you love a
terrorist I just went ahead and gossip
girl killed killed somebody whether
whether the person's related to me not
to everyone's related task everyone's
everyone we love right so what are you
at somebody that's been being
destructive and again it could be from a
simple thing to totally out of hand so
Tanya comes along and says like this you
have to be able to separate what you
mean separated you have to be able to
separate between the person and the act
God created every single person and
therefore you have to still respect and
love every single person the person that
did the terrible act who create a person
God so the person has to still be loved
the actions of the person shirt is not
okay and that is something not only
taught to love the actions are wrong and
that part you actually have to
temporarily hate temporary and ikes a
temporary this tiny says temporarily a
time explaining the minute while you the
actions you have to hate if someone does
something which is against Jewish law
secular law against moralities against
ethics you hate the act what do you need
it something like that it's against law
it's against Jewish law it's against
ethics its skin society rules and so on
so forth and that part you have to hate
temporarily explain them in white
temporarily so they make a clear
distinction between people you love
everybody because God created them and
you really creating the godliness in
every single person how can you hate the
good but there's no God in that person
how do you move however the act since
God gave us freedom of choice just like
that person that's something bad we can
do bad things to we are freedom of
choice there's no guarantee you know in
the guarantee that you're okay is when
after 120 that is a guarantee but until
tomm others don't don't be assured in
yourself that yours that you made a home
run 120 only made up why because at any
moment at any moment you have freedom of
choice and we have the evil inclination
within us that can so to speak cause us
make a left turn and do the wrong thing
now
so comes alone Tania and tiny says what
if to a hate the act if you notice I
said you have to temporarily hate the
act why it's a temporary hate bag
because Tanya says what happens is
there's a fine line is the person and is
the act so the person is good and you
love all the people the action or
actions are no good now if it's not a
good Act if you love the act guess what
happens that's not good your Venture do
it oh I love that act let's do it that's
come people no way that lacks you don't
love now obviously after hate it but
when we say temporarily hating you have
to temporarily hate it mean to say is
that the person that did a bad Act you
temporarily hate the act you make a
statement the act is no good but
immediately you have to pull in
something which is called Rock'em in
rockland is compassion and you have to
bring in compassion to the person and to
the act and immediately elevator because
what happens if you spend too much time
hating the act the hate will drift over
to the person and you're going to lose
the fine line and you're going to go
from hating the Act to hating the person
and hating the nature and hey in the
community and it's going to be a
disaster and now you're Kate you got
involved eight of human beings that God
created so the hate has to be limited to
the act as to be defined but you have to
write bringing compassion what means
compassion what wounds compassion
compassion means to be able to judge the
person um that maybe you know whatever
the not the excuse the acting the act is
always wrong but you know trying to have
compassionate person maybe he had a hard
day maybe whatever he's going through
and this way you're able to hopefully
elevate the person and the person could
turn around and continue doing what good
acts vs negative acts not an easy thing
to do right
what what if they keep doing it more
compassion welcome house you know any of
this it's not money what do you think
what do you think what do you think you
know crying and tears are its ideas to
elevate the elevate a telltale to
elevate the the negative sponsor no
others when someone does a negative act
if the person is good why do you do a
negative act if the person is a good
person why do you want to get an actor
think about it if the person is a good
person why they do a negative act was I
want looking for attention so then after
there is deviant behavior no again it's
a person by definition is a good person
and they did a bad Act you have to ask
why did the act now whatever you're
going to say all these reasons
ultimately who is doing the act is it
the essence of the person or the
external part of the person and it's the
accent the external part of the person
because the essence of the person is
good it always is good it always will be
good it gets covered up right it gets
covered up now in other words like this
and others like this let's say you have
a natural stone right take for example a
diamond a natural diamond that's
beautiful clear right you can see right
through it perfect beautiful piece
correct beautiful piece and it's worth
let's say it's User number what's
excited you know a hundred million
dollars right
beautiful piece every every one would
dream of having it every man would dream
of buying for them for their spouse for
the wife right beautiful to be diamond
now the diamond gets dirty and gets
muddy and it smells actually the dirt so
let me ask you a question would you
throw away that diamond because it got
dirty you actually look American Idiot
even suggesting it rally what's wrong
with you right but it got dirty it's
muddy and it smells huh yeah but it
smells and it's dirty why throw it out
the answer is because a diamond you
don't throw out sorry something you
don't throw out a diamonds the dirt you
got to get rid of you gotta wash it you
got to clean it here if use bleach
whatever it takes to get the dirt off so
the question is what do you mean but
throw out the diamond and the answer is
again keeps them going back to the same
point because the diamond is a treasure
and it's one of a kind and it's worth a
hundred million dollars and it's a
beautiful piece and that time and you
don't throw out you got to clean it and
you got to wash it and you got to d
sanitize it whatever maybe now when you
do that you scream at the diamond no you
get rid of the dirt and the diamond
shining again it's the same thing with a
human being a human being every human
being is just like a diamond every time
you do a bad Act it's like a diamond
getting dirty so every time they do a
bad Act it's like the dirt on the
diamond exactly yeah the only himself is
I am NOT a if we do clean under say the
other one cannot clean either that's
that's fine but we're talk right now
about the diamond the dirt let's talk at
the human being and the dirt so when a
person does bad acts when a diamond
keeps getting dirty and dirtier would
anybody throw it away that belongs to
you now if you work your whole life for
it it's your assignment you have to keep
on cleaning it so you're not upset at
the diamond your acceptance earth got
out there right washed off and get rid
of it and guess what diamond shining
again the same thing also every human
being every single human being is a
diamond and if you look at every single
looming as a diamond how do you look at
people like a dominant and he's smile
like you smiled at fancy diamond and
when it gets dirty quick let's wash it
off right make Polly don't sorry i
didn't have dirty not gonna tell you
when i got 30 while it's also on right
so you want to wash it off as quick as
possible and that is basically the
essence of loving people if you love
people that means you view them as a
dominant if you don't love them you
unfortunate don't know what the value of
your being is that's the reality in
other words yeah huh give the human
being advanced age again no and I'll
tell you this was a story will finish
off a good story that you know the rebbe
would give out every single Sunday he
would stand the line for hours hours and
he was not a youngster and people would
come every son who stand for hours and
given dollars every you know wasn't
feeling well someone set them I'll be
sitting for hours and I just don't get
how you don't get tired I need about 20
minutes I would be tired standing
standing on feet while you sit down and
want you to take a break and there are
we responded with an analogy which
always always better than giving her
response because when you count diamonds
you don't get tired I think about that
you Clank diamonds so when you view
another unb I'm recently using Donna
lets people get excited about diamonds
the value the beauty whatever but why
can't you have the same excitement human
beings human beings every single human
beings are diamonds yeah the acts
sometimes get there
ready so what wash it off and the Don
and trying again it's not a big deal
it's closer giveness fine all these
terminologies you saying like water is
like forgiveness and the bleach is like
you know letting go whatever whatever it
means you want to give to it but the
message is very very clear if you view
spouse parents children friends workers
as what the way we view a diamond guess
what you'll be smaller than you'd be
lucky to be in a presence there process
exactly they do a bad Act so you don't
all sudden you're throwing out the
person oh hey go take a shower it's very
simple you know I mean I'll take a
shower yourself maybe you'll see things
differently right giggle when you clean
it on you guys who takes a shower
dynatek so you take it oh you won't take
this hour donna gets washed off you get
washed off I think once a person really
really thinks about this literally your
whole life changes besides the fact you
get along with everyone else but guess
what now you seeing a beautiful garden a
beautiful people you benefit from it who
is what you now you have this view that
you never thought you had right you know
it's like I was in New York twas they
went there was a mentor like this
restaurant so it's like in a commercial
area so the back they were everyone's
trying to think of creating creative
space good space so what they do they
took the back wall a restaurant I want
to make it a private party room and they
made like a glass window the problem was
that the glass window looked out a
someone's lawn there was always unkept
so it still the guy to give his lawn was
wonderful right if he didn't look messy
so what the guy do he put up a huge
cloth enemy a cloth but about canvas of
a okay I was have a gorgeous scenery
with you know water flows and everything
and guess what he changed the whole
perspective of now the whole back room
it's a false perspective time it's not
there's no waterfalls there's no trees
there but what is in the canvas does it
creates that so although when you create
a healthy vision of people who's
benefiting now you're sitting in a
garden we're all these wonderful people
it's actually healing for yourself
besides the fact meal to get along with
the people but for you yes ok any
questions clean very thorough and
clandestine ok ok I went here I'm with
you listen the fact is if you look to
Israel actually goes to war you know I
mean literally I mean with this big
debates rather they go to more Jewish
Way Jewish Way is before you go to war
you have to ask for peace you have to be
careful not to kill anyone got from
there intentionally you know the way
they go to war the goal early from house
to house they can come in they're like
and they warn them to leave I mean it's
done very very respectful very you
mainly because the end of the day is we
value life you value our own lives we've
got like other people's lives we don't
go ahead and kill people and so on and
so forth I mean everything's done it was
even today there was like a bunch of you
know a lot of action one is real tight
and it's beautiful though I mean speed
will send out later yeah I brother have
to be the right I said I picture the way
they arrest people they arrest them
respectfully they walk with them nicely
and you know they're not most people do
this they would kill them and obviously
this again big debate when the right
thing the wrong thing its URL at the
point is for this conversations we have
to respect all people and again in this
there is there is rules of war coin to
Jewish slow at the Jewish way to go to
war and so on and so forth and as long
as you follow the Torah you guaranteed
the right thing anyway so that any other
questions oh yeah right
the soldiers are there to protect the
land but it's a different isn't it a
different feeling when they're talking
to the soldiers that yes they know that
the enemy is the enemy but it's a human
being first and that pervasive yes it's
true it's very true and it's frustrating
because believe me it's easy to win a
war if you didn't have those rules I
went it's easier because you don't God
you so can't win but from a war
perspective yes it's not it's not right
so it's not a fear it's not a fear it's
not a fair fight because we have certain
spiritual restraints but ultimately look
the fact is that because we don't go do
that look at how many wars we won with
fractional amount of people versus big
armies so ultimately it really goes both
ways if you if you if you sometimes do
things which are frustrating based on
like the way other people go fight war
but on the other hand we have God on our
side you've got on your side if you can
win money and all throughout history
that's been the case of the Jewish
people because listen the old ultimately
or whatever means no the whole
discussion itself at the bottom as you
do we thought you follow God's God's
plan and gods way it usually works out
