How To Acquire Real EMUNAH - Jewish HaShkafa PART (22)

[Music] good to be back we're back in our uh series here in aventur Florida on the um uh book that uh the K put together for us uh to give us an understanding of the right ashfa the right ideology that a Jew has to have in essence really a human being needs to have uh in today's world as appropriately so today is actually the hula tonight is the hula of the kit may this be for his a also for for Leana Sana um David M tal Abraham Stefan Ben Katarina Jonas Ben Sherry Haley Esther Bora and also for a for Mara B Julie and Isa bat Mara sha Ben faran Ben Abraham gab and David and all of especially the ones that help us do the good things that we're trying to do so uh the um series continues the uh the uh series is getting a lot of really good feedback people that are getting the right understanding of what it means to be a Jew but at the same time the world continues to be uh as confusing as ever um the uh videos we publicized in the last couple of weeks uh about uh Ben Shapiro uh and his uh uh friends if you will uh have gotten quite a bit of uh feedback lots of headaches a few people woke up a few people became bigger you know it's it's always a mix I would say more woke up than decided to become bigger but um as the rambam wrote in the akd the the preface of um the um uh uh Guide to the perplexed where he knows he knew already that a lot of people are going to get confused out of this uh book and quite frankly the overwhelming majority of Heretics that we've spoken about uh or that you even hear about today that usually coming from the modern Orthodox world or the likes um typically got confused by that book Guide to the perplexed which is the reason why my own R told me that uh he if I wanted to study it it's on me meaning he refused to study it with me why he says this is not one of those books you study just because you feel like studying it uh it's a very confusing book and if you're not an expert in all of the things that uh are prerequisite whether it be the entire and and many many other things that a person needs to become an expert in and ver at least well versed in uh before going and diving into such a book uh it's very easy to get uh confused and unfortunately many times they do they do get confused and uh they mistranslate or misinterpret things in the names of in the name of the rambam and even though the rambam did not mean what what they say they like to throw his name around as if he's one of their buddies uh but either way the uh let it not enter your mind that the rambam didn't know that people will actually become confused from this book in fact he wrote it on the preface of the book that uh he knows that people are going to get confused out of this but he says that even if 10,000 out of 10,000 people 99,999 will go against him but only one will get closer to Hashem he's more than happy why is he more than happy he says I didn't come for the those 99,999 I came for that one the one that actually wanted to admit the other 9,999 they were just looking for an excuse to justify their evil to justify their actions so the truth is is that a lot of times you bring uh things out to people uh and you show them that perhaps their uh their hero is uh really a villain uh you know or at the best case scenario an idiot uh that's putting people in Jeopardy um you know they they don't like it now sometimes the uh the hero is a very smart person and not an idiot but nonetheless when it comes to tah a very uh misguided person that could put a lot of people in danger and um you have to speak out now the funny thing is funny thing is is that you know we're learning about as we're learning about ideology we're learning about what is the Jewish mindset supposed to think like but you know what the funny thing is is that sometimes you don't necessarily need to go that far to know that somebody is mistaken meaning you don't need to be a sage you don't need to be a big you don't need to be so wise in to to know that something doesn't smell right here and if you notice most of the people that like to make these uh awful horrendous comments uh publicly whether it be one social media over the other and uh insult and embarrass and call names and curse and you know all types of wonderful things what are they doing it on they're doing it all you're saying against my hero whether it be Ben Shapiro or one of the other uh people that we've spoken about you're saying bad things about my hero he's better than you you're ugly and you're fat and you're this and all the nonsense that they say right okay I I didn't I didn't commit everything they said to memory yet now you know what the funny thing is is that you don't need to be a genius to realize that the listener The Listener the one that's speaking out for the hero is actually a bigger idiot than the one they're listening to the one they're listening to may not necessarily be an idiot he may simply be a fool of and regards to one particular subject he may be ignorant in one particular subject but the one that's defending him he's an idiot for sure she's an idiot for sure why you are publicly Defending Your Hero by for me shaming him if you will by what by shaming me you're accusing me of the very same thing you're committing simultaneously it's like you're telling somebody hey F this and f that and every curse Under the Sun why are you cursing like you're cursing the guy why is he cursing why you saying all these bad things and and while you're telling me bad things why you going public with this stuff why you going public against this with me and that's the funny thing is that people don't have a Jewish mindset needless to say they don't have common sense either because their emotions take control of their brain they take the brain put it in a garbage pale and just run the show and that has actually been the recurring topic that the Kish has repeatedly mentioned of how somebody's imagination which in essence really is influenced by their heart takes over their intellect which is influenced by their mind by their brain and many times people's hearts simply get them to G with no way out because they're so emotionally involved in whatever belief they have whatever position they have that they forget what's right and wrong they just feel something I feel this is good I have a good feeling about this why because it gave me good feelings in the past therefore it's good today this is no different than how people are reacting to these elections which is you know with three days four days from World War I starting uh you know you have one guy that's half dead and the other guy is uh half alive you know they're fighting each other I mean it'll be surprised to be honest with you uh it' be surprised if Donald Trump uh loses uh simply because he's competing against somebody that's not really alive and quite frankly not really human but um anything is possible anything is possible with the corrupt system now uh to get the cat out of the bag for you know people always ask me these questions so I'm just going to ask even though it's not a questions and answers uh session but I think the elections are like tomorrow or something right Tuesday okay so it's probably the next before the next time I see you so anyone that has in mind do I vote or not if you want to vote go ahead and vote go ahead and vote there's no sin in voting some even say it's a big vote uh one thing I would add in the name of my myself also is that if you're going to vote you know vote for the one that doesn't hate Jews at least openly which you know Biden openly hates Jew so that kind of leaves you with one other option uh not that I'm a big uh Trump supporter or Trump fan at all but quite frankly he's done much better job for uh you know for the sake of am is uh than other people before him have and uh really even if you dislike the person because he's more arrogant than any human being alive uh he's still the lesser of two evils he's a very smart person he's looking for things on a business perspective which is a very good thing the only downfall is is uh you know is the fact that it makes the situation for am Israel very very comfortable in America in in some aspects which uh again this is the argument going back 200 plus years of when Napoleon uh was uh on the verge of Conquering the world right before going to war with Russia and the the balat the balatan who started kabad uh was in favor of Napoleon losing the war even though him winning would actually be favorable for the Jews he was in favor of Napoleon losing and the reason why and this was a very famous debate it wasn't uh uh just him it was others but he was the most public about it he said listen if Napoleon wins surely it's going to be good for the Jewish people especially the rich people uh and if the Russians win it'll be terrible for the Jewish people because anti-semitism and and so on and so forth but he still wanted the Russians to win and he wanted Napoleon to lose nonetheless not necessarily the Russians to win but Napoleon to lose and the reason why is because he says that you know if Napoleon wins it's going to be very comfortable for the Jewish people which will make them very comfortable with the go which will increase anti-Semitism and hurt Judaism all you know altogether whereas if the Russians win they hate us which means they'll remind us that it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor Kazi Safari tall short black white you're a Jew and they're going to remind you about it and that for the sake of Judaism is better for all intents and purposes it's a uh it's a catch 22 again it's not that we want Shalom suffer or anything else I we want to do CH but the point being is that regardless of what happens in the next few days uh even if they if they even let the election actually uh be completed cuz I remember when I was on Wall Street years ago they had an election between one of the Bush Brothers and some other Crook and uh the crook won but then he lost the day after because they decided that the votes in in Florida didn't count and then they decided that that was the winning state so just to make sure that bush won so I never really had much faith in the election system even before uh you know coming into tah but the point being is that you have a situation in the world today that people think that we is going to win it's a uh if it's Trump he's their mashiah he's there he's going to save us I'm referring to the Jewish people he's the Messiah he's a savior because his daughter converted you know questionable conversion a uh a uh you know is a uh you know as far as uh some of the things that he said has been very favorable for Jewish people which is true um and the other guy is a lefty liberal hater of ity so you know they figure that you know it's better that Trump wins which is true it is better that Trump wins and I do believe that he will win but is that going to be better for Judaism in my opinion no in my opinion no for the obvious reasons the obvious reasons that um there's a MIT the T that says that after hem gives us all of the uh you know shefa all of the uh good and the blessings don't forget him don't forget him he says after I give you all the blessings don't forget me meaning that it is in essence a force of nature within us that the better we do financially uh you know uh socioeconomically uh you know politically and so on the less religious we become the less we cry to AEM so this means that uh you know the situation in in America and and Western Society in general but especially America where you have a uh you know over 80% of the Jewish people in America about 6 million people 80% of them are marrying green without thinking about it twice you know inter marriage in Judaism is 100% forbidden there's no leniency whatsoever there you know but we are in such a generation that I have a kids that for all intents and purposes have been born into the religion meaning they were born relig but are still asking me can you show me a Torah proof that says that I'm not allowed to just hang out with a non-jewish girl like wait did you go to you go to Yeshiva yeah yeah I go to Yeshiva so why you asking this question like that's the thing we are in such a generation we are in such a generation that the basics the basics that a new Bal chuva or a convert learns or supposed to learn at least are also missing in the teachings of the people that are going to Yesa uh that are going to uh to you know to religious uh or part of a religious community and unfortunately I have one worst story after another just about three or four weeks ago I had a young man tell me listen my whole life have been sh Shabbat my whole life have been sh Shabbat said finally I beat somebody like that my whole life I'm sh Shabbat but there's always a butt though my whole life I've been sh shabat you know and uh but I'm finally starting to do chuva in the last few months since I've been watching your I'm thinking to myself you know this is a video audio recording or whatever I'm thinking myself why why why is why isab doing CH I figured okay the common sin is what wasting seed no he took it up a not took it up a not so finally doing Chua after watching some of your videos over the last few months even though puts on goes to eats kosher all intents purp went to Yesa everything good but finally I'm doing cha in the last few months why I could never meet a Jewish girl so my whole life I've been dating non-jewish girls and I'm saying to myself if this is a Yesa B meaning this is in essence one of the best among them I can't say it's the best among them because the best among them this is in essence he was brought up in a in a community in a in a in in a home that is supposed to teach him this is forbidden until a few months ago he didn't know how bad it was this all has to do with the hasf the ideology of a Jew and the unfortunately misinterpretation of some teachings that have been made uh you know in the past by certain sages and that's in essence what we're trying to to do here to try to figure out what is your brain supposed to look like what is is your brain supposed to think like what is your brain supposed to operate like when it's under pressure when everything is good you don't need a teacher youve G aen already but the reality is that most of the times things are not so good for most people most of the time is volatile at least things are up things are down you found a you lost a you found some money you lost some money you found this you've lost that it's constantly issues that's life what do you do then why do you do then because that's when the Satan Likes to Rock and Roll he likes to do whatever he wants because once you have some difficulties all of a sudden you remember that when you were in sixth grade you had a question to the rebi and the rebi didn't have a good answer to you yeah but you're 35 now why do you care about the question from 20 years ago I don't know I just I'm just thinking how come that Rabbi didn't give me a question didn't give me an answer maybe he doesn't know maybe this maybe that oh maybe I should violate Shabbat what does that have to do with Shabbat today 20 years later that's what the Satan does Satan gives you little Minds it puts you know different Minds throughout your life that put your whole life in jeopardy but you don't even realize they're there one friend with some off remarks one teacher with an off ideology one book that you should never read one one uh show you should have never watched all of these different things that go through your life and eventually what he does is that he brings them all up in your mind in the front of your mind at the worst possible time when When You're vulnerable so had you become prepared by learning what it means to be a Jew IE the mind of a Jew what is that supposed to look like you would have never gone to that position in the first place why you would have dealt with those amales with those Minds along the way along the way you would have learned but that's the thing today it's very difficult very difficult to say the least quite frankly I feel bad for you I feel bad for for everybody uh that you have so many public figures that are 100% Heretics no less than the Christian missionaries calling themselves rabbis today you know I I don't know all of the ones that are not public and I surely hope that they're much better than the ones that are public but many times you have public figures teach you things that are completely against the Tora in every aspect and you don't have to look for it it just comes to you see people make a video about something that's completely the antithetic of the Torah opposite of the Torah why they're trying to befriend the green they're trying to please the G they're trying to please the Nations they're trying to please the girls they're trying to please the homosexual they're trying to please somebody so they say things that Torah didn't say but they're saying in the name of the Torah because they fig you're not going to check anyway and guess what they're right mostly you're not going to check mostly you're not going to check why because that's just a reality this is a reality contested even today we're going to give a lecture we're going to talk for the next couple of hours I'm going to mention a few sources let's see how many of you actually check the sources when you go home now you may going to check oh no no I'm going to prove it WR okay three of you the rest of you are not checking why it's reality you're going to take my word for it why my beard maybe is a little longer this week maybe my ears look funnier I don't know today yeah I'm going to believe this guy reality is people don't check and because they don't check they make themselves vulnerable because they make themselves vulnerable they make themselves ignorant because they makes themselves ignorant they rely on somebody that they're an honest person but because that person is not honest and he knows that you think he's honest he takes advantage of it and he manipulates it to like putty today well more likely I guess in the middle of the night last night I got some news that the one of our uh friends sarcasm here one of our friends uh Ken brender who is the uh I guess uh either good friend or Rabbi of Ephraim Goldberg from boaron um decided to move up the ladder in the uh Wicked World especially in the missionary world you know he was one of the founders of the boaron synagogue built this place and you know got a lot of Jews there which looked good in the beginning until Ephraim showed up but I thought Ephraim was the problem I didn't realize that his predecessor was uh as much or not even a bigger problem than he was and I've told you guys that both of them are all connected to this one Rashad that is in Israel uh calls himself a Orthodox Jew but nonetheless uh said that if he ever sees the Messiah he's going to ask him if it's the first or second time that he come because he's been reading a lot of Christianity during his life you know I often think if someone were to announce that the Messiah is here who would actually want him the Jews Messiah means the Jews all have to move to Israel I doubt that the Jews throughout the world are ready right now to move to Israel so I don't think many many people would be interested in his coming except religious Christians and religious Jews and we all run out to greet him and ask him one critical question is this the first time you're coming or the second time you're coming anyway this uh inaho with him they work together and His Name Escapes me but anyway um he decided alongside with a few other amim to open a new section to their so-called Yesa in Israel that's going to teach teach in Interfaith Interfaith Interfaith we're going to teach go we're going to teach Jews we're going to teach about the Christianity to the Jewish people about Islam to the Jewish people the the the the the principle the one they designated as a principle is so-called Rabbi who spent his entire life studying Islam I don't know if you're a rabbi usually your entire life you study Torah Judaism but Rabbi studied Islam his whole life he's the guy spearheading the uh thing under Ken brender and uh they're starting a they called a bet midash they call a Yesa that's going to teach Interfaith teachings about Christianity about Islam about other religions perhaps uh how to deal with other religions uh how we can work together as a uh pluralism if you will which is what I told you guys during that same clip when we we spoke about Ben Shapiro and when we talked about the whole era of mashiah of what R was fighting his whole life which is this pluralism mentality this United with the green mentality that people have this is what started reformed Judaism culminated next to conservative Judaism which their head Rabbi of the uh of of the reform is a woman that's not Jewish head Rabbi of concern ative is a guy that's openly gay in Jerusalem and now it's moving and I'm not joking about these things and and and now we're are now moving and I told you that modern Orthodox modern Orthodox many parts of it not necessarily all of it but many parts of it E from Goldberg being one of the biggest ones is on their way to joining too starting with his show four years ago bringing a missionary but I just learned recently that that wasn't the First Missionary or the last missionary that he brought to to boaron synagogue I mean I saw in my own eyes that he brought others that weren't as big as uh as as the as the guy the Matthew Kelly but uh even before him uh in the year 2012 Ephraim Goldberg had a y day a day of Jerusalem Day celebrated by inviting the local pastors to speak at the boaron synagogue in 2012 and the Pastor said on the podium inside the boaron synagogue Jesus did all of this and not a single Jew in the congregation said something except one that wanted to cry but you know everybody was what are you going to do by himself so you see that it's not really Ephraim by himself because if it was by himself somebody would enough people would say something kick him out but it's become a situation an epidemic if you will much worse than Corona because you don't even have to know you're sick to die from it you're spiritually dead from this without even knowing it you could think you're religious for 20 30 years but wake up one day and realize that you're spiritually dead because you have more beliefs that are in common with Christianity or some other Faith than you have with Judaism so he brought many Christians to his sh thinking nothing of it his predecessor Ken brander uh has a uh joined with their Mutual Rabbi who uh who is best friends with the Christians and now they're moving up the ladder and they're now starting an Interfaith uh B midash they want to call it you know bet meaning you learn Torah there but there's nothing remotely close to that over there so and this is again under the uh the guys that they are part of modern Orthodoxy now if the real modern Orthodox rabbis and members don't disassociate themselves from Modern Orthodoxy right now then they're in essence enabling these to continue because you can't say no no no I'm not the same yeah but you go to his Sho you watch his lectures you read his newsletters you read his blogs you uh donate some money you can't say you don't have a uh you know the same beliefs you're part of the whole thing and even if you just sit there quietly you're still a sinner according to our Torah so unless the leaders in the modern Orthodoxy World start speaking up and start telling the world World who's who no this is not modern Orthodoxy if you invite Christian speakers to your synagogue you're not modern Orthodox you're a new religion you're a new cult you're a new cult you're not part of us if you don't start doing that guess what two things are going to happen one you're going to lose a lot of people because a lot of people are going to end up converting to Christianity and you lose yourself because you'll forget where you stand with a no time and this is really what's happening now a lot of this is happening the Christians are running wild and they're doing more missionizing now than they've ever done before unfortunately one of the uh in the past generation said that more Jews converted to Christianity in the last 30 50 years then Jews have converted Tois it in the last 2,000 years meaning in the last 2,000 years there have been pgms inquisitions uh all types of death threats blood lials forcing Jews to convert and yet the Jewish people did not convert for the most part did not convert to Christianity last 50 years no programs no inquisitions no blood lials nothing yet many many any more have converted over a half a million Jews have converted to Christianity just in the last 20 years years so you see that it's a problem that's a systemic problem it's not something like a uh you know that's just here today Gone Tomorrow there's a systemic issue here and that systemic issue is not just hurting the secular people because there are also people that call themselves or used to call themselves religious Jews that are leaving now all of this starts with the right ideology if you have the right ideology you will not allow certain things to enter your mind you will not allow your time to be spent on certain things if you don't have the right ideology unfortunately you're more vulnerable than you think and even though shalom was very much the pillar behind modern Orthodoxy he was an enormous and he himself was avidly against anything to do with Interfaith anything to do with learning or socializing with the non-jews meaning that the so-called rabbis that are following him calling themselves modern Orthodox are not following him they just say his name no come on we have theak the no you don't will burn you with his eyes if he saw what you're doing what are you talking about this is the same thing as people dropping names like the ramb oh the r and and gux he said this no he didn't you think he said that because you don't know how to read That's you said it he didn't say it and it's very important to know that just because somebody says a name it doesn't necessarily mean that's a valid source the Christians do it all the time and they're missionizing they're trained they're trained to misinterpret things intentionally or unintentionally initially it starts unintentionally because the guy doesn't know anything he just tell him what to say yeah yeah just tell him Isaiah 53 Daniel 9 and whatever else you could think of just tell him yeah it's yeah but it says that's that's a bucket yeah yeah too yeah it says that's a donkey yeah yeah everything in once the guy starts asking question hey Mr Pastor Mr Reverend listen doesn't make any sense that anything but the donkeys Yos like where do you see it I don't understand oh now you ask questions okay now they train him how to manipulate the words they train him and that's what they do it's intentional intentional intentional this is why most of the Christians in the world are victims they're not uh Wicked like their leaders the leaders of are wicked no exceptions but the the the followers many of them are not Wicked people bad people some of them are actually even nice people and they believe in the cause they believe in their belief and simply they're ignorant no different than secular Jews that are just decent people but are bad according to Hashem or Wicked according to Hashem so it's important to know that just like if you are going to fly a plane you have to take a course for two three years why it's not easy to fly a plane it's not easy to fly a plane you want to go fly a plane go to the airport tell listen I want to test out the 747 okay uh who are you well I'm me okay that's great that's go we'll play along and why why do you have the uh what makes you think that you should fly This Plane oh I feel like playing okay we continue playing along with you all right so we're going to let you fly can you show us your your license to fly not have one so what makes you think you can fly I don't know I saw it I I played on one of these uh machines on the computer uh these game Boys on PlayStations and I'm the best at it I always shoot all the enemies down with with my with my game station I I beat everybody with it so I figured I could I could fly to 747 what are you going to do with you throw you with your you know out the place with your head first what are you kidding it's a joke say what are you crazy it's very tough to fly a plane you want to fly a plane you have to go to courses and courses for a few years it's not easy to fly a plane now truth be told there's not that many plane crashes you look at the amount of flights before Corona before Corona the amount of flights that are in the air versus the amount of crashes almost non-existent very rare for there to be a plane crash I know people are scared of flying myself included even though I've flown a thousand times I hate flying every single time still you always think that things going to crash like how is this boat flying in the air you can't figure it out oh it's the engine okay buddy engine yeah you could say engine all you want the thing is falling it just dropped 5,000 m in a second I think it's going to hit the ground no no it didn't it was just a cloud what cloud the cloud is air and you could explain it to somebody like me a thousand I still don't get it but you have to use it and that's what it is but how many planes crash nothing very few one crashes oh big news two crash oh big news then you find out the Russians took it down so it's didn't really crash it got shot down but anyway not that many planes on the other hand how many marriages end up as divorce the vast majority how many people commit suicide an enormous amount millions of people commit suicide every year young people old people meaning that there are many more suicides relatively speaking and many more divorces needless to say relatively speaking then there are plane crashes why well the guys that are flying the plane learned for a few years about how to fly a plane whereas the people that got married for the most part never learned how to be a husband never learned how to be a wife and the people that are alive needless to say never learned how to live there show some shows on TV and they figured out I'm going to be like that guy on TV like as if it's real life he learned how to be a friend from Seinfeld she learned how to be a wife from a desperate wives to learn how to be a businessman from you're fired on Donald Trump's former show yeah I want to be like that guy tells everybody he's fired fired fired fired yeah okay it's going to be you buddy where they learn where do they learn how to be people nowhere that's what T is there to teach you there to teach you what's the what's the what's the thing there's a big uh situation here let me stop for a second what's the problem m a cockroach a cockroach okay baby wants to listen to one of the guys come on one of the heroes over here just you know do this please go over there so we can stop it and pay attention they're looking at it you're looking at them everybody's looking looking looking everybody's looking except me no take a napkin here take a napkin say kadish and it'll go home y finishes T doesn't need to listen to All sh oh he's hiding oh so he want to the okay let him so why don't you why don't you take the chair take the chair put it over here closer so you could not not not next to uh with the Cockroach behind the black whereit where you got it stand by one time we had a spider was was was was listening to the shield the whole time was watching him the whole time he was looking at him remember guys you guys remember that which one do you remember you got him got him God bless okay go I think one time he took a mouse out from the best had a little mouse or something there yeah he he's our superhero rest of you guys are like me I said who was the hero everybody sat down sat down no no no I'm serious about to Rabbi you're scared of the Cockroach like me so anyway so now we have the uh Kish we have the konish let's see what he says if you could lower the uh the temperature to to less than boiling that'll be good please actually no it's not fair we oh you're back okay you did okay imagine the honor of a person who through the constant labor has managed to restrain his unrefined Tendencies completely he has no anger no rage no hatred no hostility wants no revenge and bears no grudge has no aspiration for honor and no desire for meaningless Pleasures in so many words the K is describing a Mal he's describing an angel cuz he calls such people Angel among men they may look like men but they are angels among men says imagine how honorable such a person is if he's achieved such a status he doesn't say that this person has no anger because he wasn't born angry he doesn't say that this person has no rage because he was simply born like one of these people that doesn't get bothered by anything no no no he has bad midot he has bad traits she has terrible traits she was born with when she was little you said something off a bottle flew your way when he was little you said something off there's going to be a scratch in your car the next day that was in them but they learned enough Torah enough of the Divine instructions to know that number one it's a terrible trait to have two if I don't fix it I am worse than an animal three although it's difficult to fix it's worth it not just in heaven and the reward you're going to get but simply the life you're going to live here and how much better your life is so he says here imagine the honor that a person person would get who through constant labor has managed to restrain his unrefined Tendencies not that he wasn't born with them but rather because he labored and toiled and eventually learned how to restrain these terrible tendencies that he or she has and got to a point where they have no anger rage hatred hostility now you look at the list if you're honest with yourself you go with the first one how's no anger that's not me okay right no rage only when nobody is uh annoying to me no hatred ah guess well kind of maybe yes no no hostility yeah when I'm sleeping uh no Revenge well revenge is kind of sweet why shouldn't I have it Bears no grudge well only against those people that uh I don't have a grudge again I have no grudge against aspirations for Honor who doesn't want honor the whole reason I'm doing everything I'm doing is for Honor I want more money because of Honor I want a bigger house because of Honor I want to nice a car because of Honor I want to know more because of Honor everything I do is because of Honor that's what a real person will say to themselves and no desire for Meaningful pleasure even if you pass the first five you got to number six you're like okay I guess uh I got some work to do got some work to do meaningful Pleasures that's the only reason why we function you spend 2 hours to make a meal you'll eat in five minutes why you want the meal to taste good even though it's only going to be five minutes to eat it you work overtime so you have a nicer house you do everything we do because we want more and not more of the things we need but more of the things we want doesn't necessarily make you a bad person but we're just not necessarily fitting all of the description here yet but the K really was also describing somebody that achieved this one time a person wrote a very nasty article about the Kish yes yes have always been around nothing new Under the Sun the biggest Rabbi in the world the whole world goes to him for everything one guy decides to instead of going to the K he's going to write a nasty article about him because he disagreed with one of the things he said so he figured that he's just going to destroy him with his words you know people like to use their words as Venom wrote a nasty article but uh as time would have it the person eventually went to the Kish and told told him yes I'm the guy they wrote the nesty article about the rav and I wanted to see if the rav would forgive me Kish looks at him with a big smile he says I'm sorry but in my store I don't have the product that you're looking for we don't carry hatred or anger in this store so I don't have any of it I never got angry at what you wrote never got upset at what you wrote there's nothing for me to forgive you are article okay yeah but it was against you against me for me okay you wrote something he wrote something another time used to take uh some time during the day to do some exercise he'd walk walk walk in the streets in those days there's no YouTube there's no internet there's no nothing even the personal identification was uh not always with a photo so one time this older man sees this other older man walking what is this bum doing does know Kish what is this bum doing why is he walking all day they have something to do he sees him walking back now gets upset that this guy's walking he doesn't notice the fact that he's sitting in the same spot for a half hour but he's noticing the other guy's walking he has to say something if you're Israeli you have to say something hey hey what are you doing over there what are you doing over there why don't you do something useful stop walking around like a bum says and what do you suggest that I do just go read some t or something maybe learn some Torah thank you he leaves next day he sees him walking again cuz you're walking again failing with him as you would have it is has a good sense of humor as you have this older man one day got a little sick one of his friends says listen why don't you get a from the he lives not far from you who oh you can take me to him yeah yeah yeah I'll take you let's go he goes to the K and as soon as they open the door to see the K sitting there with the books and everything but always made time for people no matter what they bothered them for everything even what time does Shabbat come in what Shabbat come in some woman asked him Rabbi what time is Shabbat come in he says I'm not sure right now but I'll send somebody to your house to tell you exactly when Shabbat comes in and that's what he did he sent his sister who ended up marrying the stip go to our house oh Shabbat comes in at 6:05 and go back home they bothered him for everything biggest Rabbi in the world they bother him for everything what time come in so anyway this guy opens the door he sees the Kaz he knows real well it's the same exact guy he yelled at for being a BM and he falls on oh I'm sorry I'm sorry I can't believe I spoke no why why you sorry why are you sorry no I told the r he's wasting time because you were right I took your suggestion you know how many times I read the separate because of you I took your s it was a good suggestion so since then I've been reading T every time I walk that's a person that looks at the facts as they are removes all ego removes all hatred no I told you so it was my idea it was his idea none of that stuff exists in his mind allowed not allowed good bad based on the definition that God made good or bad not the definition of my desires my ideas so he says such a person which he himself merited to be such a person is as praiseworthy as can be why you simply are like an angel among men now why would such a thing be in a book and this is the reason just as the mind of this Sublime person is straight this person that's admirable to the point of awe because of how what he did just as the mind of this Sublime person is straight and his opinions are true so even his non-logical thinking meaning his emotions always decide in favor of the truth and his heart accepts the truth of the almighty's existence without any hesitation with no doubt for his heart always sees the glow beyond the natural reality in recognizing the existence of his creator he finds the solution to the mystery of the entire world that mystery that gave him no rest in so many words he's saying this extraordinary person because he has these character traits that he has no anger that he has no rage that he's perfected his character it even shaped his emotions that by default they always lean to the right Emotion by default his natural emotion lined with what hem says especially when it comes to belief in hasem where he has without any hesitation or doubt his heart always sees the glow beyond the natural reality no matter what's happening how dark reality is no matter what the political situation is how many viruses are in the world who's going to win who's going to lose how many people die today how many going to die tomorrow whether five or 6G are going to be worse than each other all of the different things that people stress all day about none of this stuff bothers him at all why he has a AEM that is so complete he's simply at peace at all times no concern whatsoever it's not that he's unaware of the risk he's not oblivious to the world he knows everything that exist but he knows that there is a puppet master pulling all the strings oh today I'm going to pull some covid oh today I'm going to pull some 5G oh today I'm gonna pull some trumpy oh today I'm gonna pull some something else every day it's something else and he knows oh okay hasem ohem oh coem oh Holocaust hasem oh cancer oh financial crisis oh good news you just know every single one of these situations that are happening in the world is an opportunity for him to say hello to that's his and that is become his default meaning he's not straining to have auna he has it naturally many times people say listen I want to do such and such should I have a to do this should I believe that this is going to work out if you're asking don't do it why because if you're asking whether you should or you shouldn't have a that means you're not there yet doesn't make you a bad person it means you're not there yet you're not there yet so don't push yourself too far and get to a point where you fall off a cliff and then you end up throwing everything with it you have to know where you stand now of course in order to build youra you need to take give yourself some tests you need to do certain things but the K says something quite different he says if you want to build your imuna your faith in Hashem that he's the one that's running the world that he's the one in control of everything whether you understand it or not that he's the one pulling the strings that he's the one that brought the Holocaust that he's the one that took people to uh to outer space even if they didn't reach the moon but they think they did he's the one that uh put this guy as president he's the one that's going to take somebody else and make him into uh you know some big billionaire even though he doesn't know how to add from one to five he's the one that did all of this he's the one you have that understanding that he's the one how by perfecting your character treats not by focusing on oh I'm going to believe and therefore it will be rather if I perfect my traits my character traits then I will eliminate the anger in my life I will eliminate the rage in my life I will eliminate the stinginess in my life I will eliminate the laziness in my life I will eliminate all of those things that are the opposite of what Hashem wants from me I'm going to eliminate them which in essence is going to align myself my whole self with hasem which will make my understanding in line with AEM it's not that I need to give myself a test of believe it and it will happen no I don't need to do that all I need to do is follow what the already said if you want to have a purpose to your life fix your character traits and if you came to this world and lived 70 years without fixing your character traits your life was purposeless if a person came into this world with a natural inclination to be angry to be stingy to be arrogant that doesn't make him a bad person what makes him a bad person if he stays that way if she was born cheap if she was born arrogant if she was born some sociopath of some kind that doesn't make her bad that's what Hashem put in the package each package got its own little code each pot got got its own little goodies you're born that way that's because that's your test you stay that way you fail the test and therefore you're considered Wicked so the G says if you live a whole 70 years and you didn't fix your traits for what were you born what was the PO point of your life what so you get three houses they don't care about your houses in your what you got eight kids you could have somebody else could have those kids if you didn't fix your cha you simply lived a purposeless life and adds to what the says if you fix your traits not only are you now living a purposeful life but your life itself improves why because now that you fixed your traits now that you have less anger less arrogance less all of the bad things now by default your mind your heart is in line with Hashem You by default believe in Hashem more you have more faith inem more why because you're in line with him at all times your life becomes better here thereby you become an angel among men now how do we know that we got to that point he says that a person has to accept the truth of the almighty and his existence without any hesitation with no doubt whatsoever you hear the truth andit I like it don't like it don't make a difference there's no personal consideration oh I don't know maybe the rabbi's wrong on this one because even though he's quoting Rashi and even though he also quoted rambam too and even though he mentioned thear in the process I don't know that that sounds kind of extreme sounds kind of extreme maybe it's not applicable anymore maybe you don't have enough maybe you don't have enough understanding that's the only maybe you should you should ask and the problem is is that we have the most difficult Anda test when it comes to the most extraordinary rules in the Tor the rules that touch our own life the rules that we're biased in if somebody tells you listen if he's a Jew if he violates Shabbat on purpose he's considered an idol worshiper now if you're keeping Shabbat doesn't affect you you don't really care like yeah yeah Idol worshiper yeah yeah terrible terrible you don't care you're you're not you're not you're not an idol worshiper because you're not violating Shabbat you don't drive on Shabbat you don't uh turn TV on Shabbat you're good so it doesn't bother you when the speaker or the Torah says that Shabbat is considered an idol worshiper it doesn't bother you doesn't bother you when when when the Torah says if you steal you have to be reincarnated and come back and pay back the person money now sometimes you'll have to come back as an animal why because an animal works so sometimes if you stole money from from from Steve and Steve happens to have you know a farm in the next re Carnation you have to come back as one of the cows one of the horses now if you never stole a dollar in your life doesn't bother you either doesn't bother you either why I didn't steal doesn't bother me if you stole like no I think I think I think this cabala stuff is crazy now all of a sudden you don't like cabala like one statement the whole cabala is in the garbage one statement you don't like the whole thing that means what lack of lack of because had you had the right believing the would be would be natural to you now one of the things that we said that uh perhaps was one of the most difficult things to accept in the uh last year is when we said that this whole business of cash advance is not only a terrible idea a terrible business but also it's against the T and we spoken about this handful of times already had a whole couple of shim about it where these different people have their uh non-bank Bank pretty much it's not really a bank but it's really a bank cuz it's a lending institution and they lend people small business owners especially a bunch of money with high interest and the reason why those people are willing to go to them is because those people are typically desperate because they either have bad credit CU they already defaulted on loan somewhere else or they have a no credit or they had something bankruptcy or some type of you know there's some type of stain on their credit report so it's hard for them to get a normal loan somewhere else so they go to these vultures now if the vulture AKA cash advance charged him normal rates that are acceptable among Society acceptable among civilization where you charge the industry rates 10% 15% even though mortgage rates right now like 4% % or 3 and a half% still let's say you charge the industry Norm historically 14 15% 20% or what the credit card robs you from let's say 30% if you miss one payment fine charge the guy 28% like the credit card it's legal h no it's not enough they want to charge 50 70 90 100 400% one guy 4,000% they charge him rage that the the guy has to win the lotto just to pay it back like you have to understand if I'm borrowing $100,000 from the guy with the high interest rates that already means that I have a difficult time paying it back that already means I am a risky loan to begin with I already have a tough time paying you back meaning my business deals don't work out most of the time now because of that you're going to justify charging me high interest rates no you're going to you're by charging me a high your interest you're actually making me riskier than what I actually am already but they don't care about that why because they have all types of tricks of how to get their money one way or the other by all types of different agreements and different small prints different threats and so on in so many words they are robbing people blind by charging them these huge enormous rates one guy said listen Rabbi I don't charge them so expensive I'm only 55% that's good right yeah Gom it's perfectly fine then another guy says yeah but RAB I'm only charging 80% but it's only the non-jews it's only the non-jews I charge that and one of the biggest reasons why I went out public with this is because because of that people for some reason have this understanding that you're allowed to I don't know how to say this another way but but simply screw the the non-jew take advantage of him to destroy him to do all of these different things and this is the opposite of Truth as much as it could possibly be now seph in chapter 18 verse number says talks about people that are considered an Abomination a person gives loans with Usery and takes interest should he live he shall not live he has committed all these AB Abominations he shall surely die and his blood will surely be upon himself so says someone that charges interest surely does not have he's not going to live meaning has no share of the world to come now he doesn't say if he charges interest to Jew only he's talking about anybody and that's what the debate are you allowed to charge the go interest you not all to charge the go interest some say you're allowed to charge him interest but nobody says that you're allowed to charge him high interest no one says you're allowed to to to destroy them it's actually quite the opposite the in the preface by ROV Ben Pinas says we must make sure not to disrespect the Nations meaning the guim as it says in aot chapter two uh uh mishna number three pray for the Peace of the kinghood for its uh uh and uh and for its peace and God forbid that we be ungrateful to those who are good to us as long as they believe in our God and which is the basics of belief meaning you're not allowed to simply be ungrateful say Oh no just because they're go we allowed to take advantage of them absolutely not in fact it's the opposite you have to pray for them if they believe in the same God if they're not like the uh idolators of of of Egypt and the previous Nations or are atheist that deny God or communist and things of that nature pray for their wellbeing not allow to take advantage of especially if you live in their country the was which uh is the author of a famous uh called and he lived in the 1700s it's one of theas and he traced his family to Rashi to the family of Rashi which came all the way from David so had several and one of them was his book of lectures hisim is 539 says the following says the sages forbid us from charging interest from a non-jew as we put the source page 24 side a and even more so it's forbidden for us to take to charge interest from the nation that we depend on them that we uh we live among them we get kindness from them whether it be America England and so on you live in America you live in England you live in France and they do good for us they allow us to live among them allow us to eat allow us to have a uh Jewish neighborhood allow us to have all types of uh privacy and they believe inem they believe that the five books of Moses were from Heaven you tell me and someone who charges interest those from those people takes interest High interest from those people that's more than what's normal in normal in the nation meaning normal in a nation is let's say credit card rates 28% let's say you charge 40 you charge 29 even you charge 32 you charge 90 needless to say 100 and so on someone who does such a thing makes two sins two evils one is the fact that he's even charging interest which in itself is noted and secondly he's considered a like someone that is bringing the Jews to the Go's authorities meaning like you are a danger to to Jewish Society why because you make the rest of the nation look disgusting in the eyes of the Nations and it's a uh uh it's uh it's good for us to look like and to strive for to uh be glued to the traits of hasem because he is the one who he uh wants the kindness he likes kindness in so many words the from a couple of hundred years ago says that someone that charges interest of the Goen needless to say the Jews Jews is someone charge another Jew there's no share of the world to come but he says even if you charge a njw more than normal rates you are you are against the entire Jewish people you're an enemy of the entire Jewish people yeah but the rabbi say it's okay yeah he's a too then he's your partner you're both going to have the same chamber why you're putting the entire nation in jeopardy now because there are so many Jewish people in The Lending business this part is very very hard to accept so when I originally brought it out with a couple of sources they said no no you're mistranslating the sources we brought another 25 sources no you're misunder understanding the sources I don't know what they're going to do with this one but surely every so often somebody else tells me listen I pretended like you were misunderstanding I pretended like you were mistranslating in reality I knew everything you're saying was true and I left the business eventually it was just hard for me to leave the business why listen I was making $30 $40,000 a month where else you going to make that kind of money one guy just told me this a few days ago listen I I never succeeded in anything in my life it's the first business I ever succeed I need to pay the bills I said okay you need to pay the bills you think that you're paying the bills because of is business you're not understanding that hasem would have given you that money even if it wasn't for that business you're just choosing to make the money from that business because you don't have AA and that's what the Kish is trying to teach us he's trying to teach us that having AA is not necessarily just an a aspiration you should have a goal that one day I'm going to have it's in essence survival survival because without this we're bound to make mistakes that we wouldn't make otherwise but how do we get this amuna not by working on amuna rather by working on our character traits now the K gives us four principles of Faith these are surely out of the 13 principles of Faith but he highlights these four to finish off the chapter one I believe with perfect faith that the Creator blessed be his name is the Creator and guide for all created beings and that he alone did does and will do all Universal Acts now this may seem like some blanket statement that somebody can say 50 times a week but never really internalize it when a person internalize it automatically your ameter increases by a few percentage points increase a few percentage points you know sometimes the computers today or phones or different things they have different software that tells you listen your system is not working up to its standards but if you do what suggested over here it'll improve it by x amount of percentage and you just press yes like I do cuz I don't know what I'm doing so I just press yes sure I I'll I'll listen I'll buy in doesn't cost any money I'll buy in that's three more percent and automatically my percentages go up 3% I feel like I achieved something in life look my my my my Google profile is 3% higher now but that's you think you achieve something in life here is actually a real way of how to achieve something in life I believe with perfect faith that the Creator blessed be his name is the Creator and guide for all created beings stop here what does it mean that he's the Creator and guide for all beings that means that that guy that just cut you off he created him too that means that the fact that he cut you off he allowed it like it's not only that he created and he's also hashem's son he's also hashem's creation is that Hashem is the one that allowed him to cut you off that allowed him to steal your check that allowed him to put a something in your tire that allowed him to do whatever it is that he did to you that you don't like Hashem is the one that did that he guided that whole relationship you had doesn't mean that he made him do it he did it himself but he wanted to do that you deserve for that to happen to you made a the B dean of Heaven brings the Merit to the one that has Merit good to the one that has Merit and the not so good to the one that doesn't have the one that has a obligation so a person that has a terrible experience on the way to work don't blame the guy that cut you off don't blame the policeman that pulled you over don't blame the guy that uh is uh pulling your car now because you parked in the Raw next to a hydrant don't yell at the teller behind the cash register don't yell at anybody Hashem is the one that created them that's number one so they're also hashem's so who are you to yell at hm's kids that's number one number two has is the one that did this like this whole terrible relationship that you have and without without your will hasem is the one that made this happen what are you so upset about for he's the one that did it you shouldn't yell at him you should yell at yourself cuz why did you put yourself in this position meaning the only one we should ever be upset about is ourself yes surely this is very difficult why cuz the negativity is coming from her it's coming from him it's coming from somewhere else it's not coming hasem is not sending you a message hey by the way I'm sending you some real jerk to your to your shop and he's going to give you a run for your money not doesn't say that to you you're at your shop mining your own business some guy decides to come with 57 questions from the year 1927 it's like what do you want for me just what is this a show a Jeopardy what do you want for my life why are you asking me so many questions no no I need to know before I buy okay so you answer all the question you answer answer answer 3 hours with the customer after 3 hours okay so you ready to buy no no I'm just going to buy online so why' you come to me well they didn't have these answers online so I figured you me why don't they give you the answers because I thought you going to buy for me oh sorry about that all right listen it's 25% cheaper online now this guy is a real joke but guess what Hashem sent him Hashem sent him to you what I don't know you with understanding and believing that the Creator is the guide for all created beings helps you arrive to that conclusion and that conclusion by default lowers your anger by at least 50% because as soon as you know that every hand that hits you is AEM automatically you're not as angry why say It's upsetting don't get me wrong It's upsetting but wait a minute it's you stop kidding no the the CL he was ises one time uh recommended that uh you guys listen to a uh rare vintage uh audio they have of him praying now all you see all you hear is just him praying you don't see anything it's just a picture of him but somebody was smart enough to record the closenberg re's prayer but I'm not talking about the prayer of yum Kip or the prayer of if somebody just died no just a regular everyday prayer when I heard of the first time I couldn't listen to the whole thing it was that just emotionally wrecking I couldn't understand how a human being can pray like that to get to such a level of emotion I didn't understand how it's how it's possible you know when I finally understood after I read his bio once I read his bio I said oh yeah that's perfect Mak match you have that life of course you're going to cry of course you're going to cry this this person this is this is an angel the way he prayed every day was unbelievable I wish I wish I can get to such a level and he had a very very difficult life in the Holocaust the Nazis murdered his wife and 10 kids when he got news that his last kid was murdered initially he was in a shock for a moment and then within a few moments later his smile returned went back to Smiling back to his business in Holocaust in the Holocaust nightmare about nightmare but he's smiling sing so the student said rebi teach us one why were you in shock and two why are you smiling again I just told you the last son died the close of R says let me tell you a story and maybe you'll understand there was one time a father walking with his son in the woods and the kid decided to run around on his own and before you know it he got lost in the woods and he didn't know where his father was and he didn't know how to get back so he continued walking in and you know how the woods are keep walking you lose yourself and it started getting dark and before you know it it's pitch dark and all types of animals and creatures are making sounds and the kid is scared to death he doesn't know where to go he can't hear any voices nothing suddenly a hand hits him in the back he immediately turns around and he realized oh ABA he sees his dead said when you told me that my last son was murdered by the Nazis these I felt like a big hit a big hit hit me said who hit me so hard and I was in a shock who hit me such a hit and I looked up I said oh ABA oh okay it's you it's you oh just you just gave me the key you took him back okay he lend him to me now he took him back what's the deal what am I what am I crying about you don't you're not born this way and you can't just decide one day I'm going to be the the rebi of the town this is AEM this is servitude of hem day and night and gluing yourself to Hashem to such an extent that you are trying to uncover every single Rock every single crease of every little bit of knowledge of how do I get closer to hasem and what the Kish is telling us is you want to do that is a very simple way work on your character traits because perfecting your traits your anger your stinginess your arrogance your whatever negative trait people complain about that you have work on them eliminate them from your life and that in itself will help you have more amuna have more faith in hasem to know that although that was a big hit and it hurt at first it's aba's hand so when a person starts with the first principle and he understands and believes that the Creator is the guide for all created beings and that he alone did does and will do all the combination of those words being internalized into our n should eliminate a large part of our our stress because now you know everything is from Hashem there is no more where was God when XYZ there was no more why did this happen there's no why is HEM doing this none of that stuff exists Hashem is doing it it must be good why if you want to give you bad there's a very different place designated for that so when a person understands it's the hand of hem even if it hurts he realizes wait a minute he's the one that got me here he's the one that did everything to get me here he's the one that's doing everything to get me to the next point because he wants me to be somewhere else now I don't understand why but surely I know that he's the one doing it now I'll give you a real life example I heard from Berman a Berman is a enormous and has fantastic real life stories and a couple of people sent me this story and he speaks in Yiddish but there's some sadik orik that uh puts English subtitles under his uh videos and uh what Merit they have that this story is going to go out to many many thousands more people now because it gave me such fantastic and I told it already to a few people and everybody loved it best part about it is that it's real and everyone can relate to it so some months ago a Jewish Israeli couple getting married now as you know in Israel the Lefty liberal government over there has turned the Corona virus uh into an opportunity to become gapos to become uh you know really uh horrible horrible soldiers taking advantage of their power and uh really punishing uh anyone that disagrees with them mainly the religious people and they made a lot of rules that are completely ridiculous but nonetheless the people have to live with them so this couple knew that because of the Corona virus they're not able to have so many people at the wedding surely they're religious Coupes so you know the dancing is separate anyway the boys on one side the girls on one side but still there's going to be some people and surely they're not going to invite as many people as usual but they figured that they're going to comply with the rules so they had this wedding on the Corona virus and the part party starts they have the Everything Is Beautiful dancing begins and shortly later the police show up stop the party put the bride the groom and the bride's father in handcuffs and take him to jail on the wedding day in front of everybody real story The Bride is crying the groom is everybody's crying what are you going to do Nazis decided to show up and arrest him why the dancing The Mask all types of rules true not true whatever they had all the reasons in the world to do it to at least to to justify doing it fine needless to say this is a traumatizing experience couple of months passed by the couple is married but of course they didn't forget what happened one day the father-in-law the the father of the of the uh the bride gets a phone call hello yeah my name is such and such and I am a in Thea that you had the wedding in for your daughter okay I'm actually one of the important one of the people that was uh really uh highly uh acclaimed student in this and wanted to call you to apologize for what said your daughter's wedding worried me because at the time we didn't know much about Corona so I saw that everybody was uh dancing and I don't know it seemed like everybody was too close the guys you know were were dancing among each other and it were just too like as if there was no Corona and you know and I got worried so figured let me call the cops they're going to come cause some noise and everybody's going to go back and you know not not dance so close to each other not put everybody else in Risk I never knew that the police is actually going to arrest your daughter and her husband and you and I'm really sorry CU I'm the one that called the cups so of course the father wasn't very fond of this person and gave him a few words of his uh on his mouth mind and the guy says listen you have to forgive me I'm really sorry because forgive you why you out of your mind forgive you know what kind of trauma you caused this he says please please you don't understand before this whole thing happened because I'm I I study hard and I'm known in the religious community and everything I'm during the time I'm looking for I was getting phone calls every day from every day I was getting the second I made this phone call Hashem turned off the phone no one calls me no one's interested in me no one nothing the whole the well is dry and please I beg you to forgive me the father says no way the guy starts hysterical crying like a baby father says no way he's crying more five minutes crying after five minutes a Jewish heart gets soft so after five minutes the father says okay I can't forgive you yet but I'll think about it call me tomorrow so the guy calls him back tomorrow following day and he says so did you think about it he says yeah I thought about it and I didn't sleep all night because I was reading the M of path of the just and and arrived at the conclusion that you didn't do anything bad to me because there's not a fingernail there's not a finger that gets hurt in this world without a bed and Sh deciding that it deserves it you didn't do anything bad to me therefore I completely forgive you CU there's nothing between us I'm not matter you at all the guy is so happy thank you so much he said but listen you're not out of the woods yet though you still hurt two other people you have to call them also here's the phone numbers he calls this the his son-in-law of course son-in-law is like are you out of your mind forgive you where do you think you are you know what kind of trauma you caused me the guy starts crying again the poor guy five minutes he's crying the same heart as the father-in-law he's crying crying crying eventually gu okay fine fine I'll forgive you I'll forgive you but uh it worked on my father-in-law it worked on me I H doubt it's going to work on my wife and I'll tell you why just like you CED right now she's been crying every day for two months she's still in the trauma right now she's still living it right now there's just no way you can get it to forgive you but go ahead and try so the guy calls the wife she has a few words to say to him and she says no chance in the world but she means it he cried it's not going to work long story short the conversation ends with it's not working no forgiveness what can we do the father-in-law forgave the the the husband forgave we got to get this girl to forgive the guy knows he has a curse from sh on him for being a m called the authorities another Jews you out of your mind anyway you meant good you didn't mean good doesn't make a difference difference he made a mistake and he knows it so he gets a very big r involved please convince her to forgive me so the r meets the wife he says to her why don't you forgive him she says what forgive him you know what kind of trauma it is this that he says yes but that's the thing he's ready is ready with the Z opens the zor for her he says look right here we have aish promise says that when you forgive somebody especially when it's hard you don't want to forgive if you forgive because it's easy for you to forgive big deal but you don't want to forgive and you still forgive you reserve yourself a miracle in the account of hasem hasem has a miracle bank waiting for you you never know maybe you need a miracle now this sadik she says you know what she thinks like a Jew it's like okay there's some money to make out of it it's a miracle a miracle who doesn't need a miracle okay you know what y forgive but she really forgave him how do we know because the rest of the story now huh go now the uh the girl and the guy can continue their life and the um they uh continue living and so on about a month passes they drive on a highway lose control the car gets smashed in every single way possible to the point where it becomes pancake pancake ambulance comes kadisha comes ready to to take the bodies they're looking try to separate the metal see what's in what's remains and then a couple of people tell no no there's nobody else in there says how do you know cuz we we were in it what do you mean you were in it we were the we the this is me my wife my wife and I were in a car goes what do you mean there's not a single scratch on you how did you get out of the car she we don't really know but it was through the window yeah but the car got smashed there's nothing there even if you got out of the window by some miracle there'd be a scratch on you something if you fall in the street just you know you missed the step is a little scab that's going to remind you of it two days later you flew out of a [Applause] car not a scratch on you not a scratch on you must be a miracle must be a miracle had one in the accountant sh you forgive when it's hard to forgive you can fix the thing while I'm talking you don't have to wait uh Sunny yeah fix it you know how to fix it no okay fix it actually how many time how much time you have left we just di know let's just let's just continue next point I believe with perfect faith that the Creator blessed be his name is a unity and there's no unity in any manner like onto is and that he alone is our God who was is and will be so a person has to say this to himself that he believes that she believes with complete faith meaning you have no doubt whatsoever that hem is a Unity what does it mean that Hashem is Unity when you say sh hero Israel uh Hashem is our Lord Hashem is one right I'm not used to saying it in English uh so what is this hem is one we have to remind AEM that he's one it's not reminding him it's reminding us that he's what does it mean that one the recurring problem that you will see among people that have either flawed beliefs wrong beliefs altogether heretical beliefs or lack of belief is that it's all due to the fact that they've humanized God because they try to put a picture on God they try to put an image on him that's what the Christians do they made him into a human being that's what the Buddhists do by making into some fat guy that sld the light that's what a lot of people that put Idols of all kinds whether it be a motorcycle or it be a rat or a cow and Essence they've personified God some people have turned him into a rabbi but you'll notice that anytime those people have trouble in their life their faith goes in the garbage their faith is easy to have when there's no reason to have it or when they have no choice meaning they're desperate they're in a hole no one knows they're there oh I believe hasm is going to help me okay yeah you believe has is going to help because you have nothing else to pray to the question is you believe that is going to help you when you were falling down the mountain you believe then when you had you know a difficulty and there was several different options of being saved did you still believe that Hashem is the one that's going to save you or you think no no a tree or maybe good luck or maybe uh Iron Dome or maybe uh Donald Trump or maybe my wife or maybe my cousin or maybe this or maybe that as soon as you put an image on hasem you personify him and therefore you limit him by comparing him to yourself now sh who of the said something extraordinary said why did so many millions of Jews get murdered in the Holocaust now you can say Hitler was anti-semitic charismatic speaker many people followed him you could say you can say the Jew didn't follow the so much a lot of into marriage in some parts of the world like Germany over 80% inter marriage you can say say a lot of things but you won't be as precise as said if you ever saw the PUK is here or Israel our Lord hm is one the last word is means one that God is a Unity that God is by himself that God his thoughts his past his present his future it's all United it's not like us where we are separate from our thoughts we're separate from our feelings We Care could remove ourselves from our feelings we could make ourselves uh completely oblivious to them in sometimes we could make ourselves ignore our thoughts no AEM his thoughts his past his present his everything is one there is nothing separate among he's not made up of Parts like us that's what means now that word is spelled you're going to like this one special for you spells one now if you look at the letters and how they're drawn the and you leave them alone but the D the way it's drawn is that almost like a in English now if you take that little chuk Che that little small part on the right that makes it into a t and you just remove that little part that little chup Chi that little Dash that little Kama size part you turn the D into a so now you have instead of what's a other of the says the reason why so many millions of Jews died is because of that small little chup Chi that small little Dash that small little K on the being removed and instead of it being it was a they believed in a foreign God the god of money the god of of women the god of uh loving everybody even if they're heretical the the god of of popularity the god of politically correct the god of uh United with the Nations the god of everything else except the god that's the second it's not the same God it's it's something else a different God it's different God that's why millions of Jews died now when a person understands I thought so when a person understands aem's Unity that he has no past present or future that he has no likeness to you whatsoever the heretic is going to say to you way but doesn't it say that in the image of man in the image of God was uh Man was created that just means that you know and have the ability to know right and wrong and you don't work off of instinct like an animal doesn't mean that you look like God or think like God or you are a little God you may have the ego that you might as well be a god to fit that ego but the reality is quite different the moment a person allows their mind to personify God and humanize him any faith and that they have any confidence in hasem any Amun in hasem goes into the garbage why it's very easy to be self-conscious it's very easy to be to lose hope in yourself very easy you try something you fail now you may be persisting you try again maybe persisting you try again but you keep failing eventually you lose hope nobody wants to play the game that they keep losing in nobody wants to keep restarting the same business they keep losing money in eventually you lose hope I'm never going to make it you get self-conscious oh this you know now to lose hope in yourself it's not the worst crime in the world it's not good but it's not the worst crime in the world but to lose hope in hasem is a crime at all times it's a crime at all times why because the only reason you lost hope in Hashem is because you personified him you made him like you like as if he was limited like you as if he can't do it like you as if he is incapable like you that's a sin all the time you shouldn't lose hope in yourself especially if you're doing what Hashem said maybe you didn't learn as much as you wanted to learn you didn't understand as much as you wanted to understand but don't lose hope you keep trying but to lose hope in Hashem that's a sin all the time why because the only reason you lost hope in him is because you personified him you've humanized him you've made him like you you've made him something that you can lose hope in because you're limiting him now once a person understands God's unity and that there is no unity in any manner like his and that he alone is our God he was he is and he will be is auna increases a little little further because now he understands that the past the present and the future are only things that are I could I live through at different times but God AEM he's not living them at different times it's all the same to him the past before you were ever born the present the thoughts you have the thoughts you have in your head right now and the future thoughts and actions you will do to AEM it's all real time now now we are incapable of truly understanding that but that's the beauty the second you understand that you can't understand God that's when he's God the moment you think you can understand God that's when he's not God now in order for for us to understand his will he wrote us a tah and we know what he wants from us we know rules that he gave us we know different things there are in nature that happens if we act according or against the rules but to think like we understand him know him any of that nature you only think that because you've personified him now also last point is that the difference between a God that's a Unity versus a god that is multiple Parts like in Christianity where they have three parts to their God the the son the the Holy Ghost you know the uh what is it the blackbuster go ghost Busters come also all that nonsense they have over there gold Busters Pikachu and Yosi all show up the three the three tribes show up right what's why am I mocking it first of all to to mock it to to mock their God to say that our God The One and Only God is three you have to mock it second of all second of all is because the only reason they've arrived at such a warped conclusion is because they lack real faith in the unlimited nature of God why because they wanted to personify him because they wanted to relate to him because they figured that if they can't relate to him because he's not like them then how could they pray to him the rambam writes in per that there are some intellectuals who are the dumbest of kind even though they're intellectuals because whatever is not in their mind meaning whatever is not their idea they simply believe cannot be and there are many people like this if they can't see it if they can't understand it if it's not already pre-existing in their mind it cannot be no no I don't believe in that kind of stuff you tell them all types of things that to you today in the year 5781 2020 to the N uh it sounds mystical sounds uh very difficult to to you know because it's not normal no no no I don't think it's possible tell people oh yeah mosenu was 20 feet tall no no what he's a giant no he wasn't a giant he was just a levy and the levies were all 20 tall no no I think I I don't think so that's a mid you don't have to believe it right well there was Giants too yeah but I don't know Giants maybe that was really like you know Discovery Channel had one time a special and they said there was some people that were like 20 feet tall so maybe I talk about that no no giants like 100 200 feet no no no I don't think so I don't think so I don't think so the sea the ocean split into 12 no no I don't think I think it was a wind I think was a wind came because Discovery Channel had a special and and Ben Ben shapir also used this he saw the same Discovery Channel he said know a wind came a wind came and it made the ocean split at the same time miraculously when millions of Jews were there and split the problem with this miracle is that it couldn't be even if there was a wind why it split into 12 what wind is going to split anything into 12 one tunnel for each tribe that's the same rambam that he's misquoting he's quot oh no the rambam said that it was a wind that came that split the ocean no the rambam actually said it was there was a wind but there was also 12 tunnels the wind didn't cause the uh sea to split that's why name dropping doesn't usually work in tah when people know what they're talking about but why does he go to the default option that he learned in Discovery Channel rather than mid or thear or any other place because to believe that an ocean so massive can split into 12 and there's 12 different tunnels and there fruits coming out of the ground and they're all fresh and you it's hard to believe why because you've humanized God and you've limited him to your own limitations you can't split your coffee cup you can't even split your schedule the right way you need an assistant you can't split your time with this and that you can't do nothing and you've made God into as incapable as as you are unfortunately such people have always existed and that's a problem with people that are very much against the mystical part of the Torah it's not because they have proofs against it but rather because and I'm talking about today's people that are against it uh but rather because it doesn't make sense in their mind now the unification of God is such that it's very different than the split nature of Christianity or other gods in that anytime you compare something you have something it's always compared to something meaning when you have a your team your team is in essence defined by who your competition is you have a team we are the best why you the best because we beat or we have better players than five other teams 10 other teams so you're constantly comparing yourself to something else when you say listen he's the number one salesman in the company what does that mean that there are other salesmen in the company unless you're crazy person you're the only salesman in the company you declare yourself the best salesman in the company that means there's other salesman in the company he's number one among how many oh there are 10 there are 50 there are 100 there are 200 salesmen in the company he's number one the more they are the more significant it is that he's number one but that's not the same with God when he says he's one it's not one in comparison to zero it's simply one that's it that's where it ends there is just one there is no other gods everything else is a creation of a creation meaning God is the creator we are the creation and the false gods are the creation's creation meaning that they're even lower than the creation itself hence the reason of why hasem finds idolatry an Abomination disgusting because it's you've taken the ultimate unity the one that doesn't have a Creator and you've replaced it with the lowest form of creation it's not even the creation but rather the creation's creation so Unity of God means he is not separate from his thoughts the past present and future is all the same to him there is no creator of the Creator there is no end there is no beginning there is no what was before God because there was no before God he's always been there is no what will happen after God because there is no after God and truthfully it's the more a person delves into it the more he understands that it's impossible for him to understand it but as soon as he or she thinks she can't understand it that's already beginning of the problem because the only way you could understand God Is by being God or by creating a different one and that like I said is an Abomination third I believe with perfect faith that the Creator blessed be his name is not a body not a and no condition of a body applied to him that there exists nothing whatsoever that resembles him this again is a clarification of the significance of God where a person needs to know that God is nothing like like him God is nothing like you if you think that God can come back in a human form you are not only an idol worshiper a heretic and so on but you're also mistaken because you're trying to humanize God because you want to relate to him and that generally comes from ego a very big one you want to be in control you want to know that you have a say your words count and a person has to get has to get to a point where they believe completely that God has no body no conditions of a body applied to him the only reason why it's mentioned in t that took out with a strong arm is just to make it understandable to our ears that am really didn't want leave Egypt so you had to force them out you have to force them out and the reason why am did not want to leave Egypt is because am got to such a low mental state that they did no longer saw themselves as regular people that are free they saw themselves simply as slaves they didn't see themselves as someone that could be free they've lost all sense of hope whatsoever this is sometimes happens to people people that lose all confidence in themselves they don't see themselves as ever succeeding in anything they simply are waiting for some type of uh great thing to happen or simply to die either they just buy lotto tickets because they figure that's the only way they're ever going to succeed in life is if they win a lotto or they simply lose all hope and they choose to become homeless now this a person that does it to themselves obviously is not good but to do with God and and make God into a limited form is terrible now the truth is we don't have to go so far as to know that we can't compare ourselves to God to know that it's ridiculous because there are certain hum that we already know just by hearing stories about them automatically we know I'm never going to be that guy he's that good I'm never going to be that girl she's just that good I'm never going to be that there are certain people like that I'll give you an example went to the Kish and he asked the k he said the wrote in his writings about L that it's evil is evil because a person that says doesn't even enjoy it Andi said how could the Kish in his Brilliance how I'm sorry how could the in his Brilliance say that a person doesn't doesn't enjoy I mean some people they like tell listen you want to go to a hotel for the whole weekend or you want to just like hang out over here and talk about people no no talk about people now who needs to go to the hotel let's just start talking now all day they talk about people make up stuff real fake this that all day so how could it people love to talk oh you hear what happened I got a juicy one for you you never guess what happened you know that guy you know they were married with three kids guess what was not real they weren't really married she's the oh I got a juicy one for you you know that guy who had all that money oh yeah guess what happened people love stories all day they tell stories about other people so Kanki comes to his love Kish Kish says then how could the write that someone that says doesn't enjoy cuz surely people enjoy it is how me you can't just say oh he was wrong if you know T you don't just say was wrong if you're an idiot you say oh was wrong you don't know what is so he says that's because never said a single word of in his entire life and therefore he never tasted the sweetness of in his life and he simply assumed why would anybody enjoy to do such a thing so for him it was true the rest of society not so much I know I'm not going to be that guy true I'm not going to be that guy there's some people in the world our sages you say listen it's a great story tells me who I could aspire to be I'm just never going to be that well I have a history and even without that history I just don't see myself ever getting that is just amazing never set a single a but that's a reality and there are some some people in the world that are just so great our sages are so extraordinary the more you learn about them you realize I'm not even like him how could I personify God it's the most ludicrous thing in the world now because it fits and I had the idea to do it before I just didn't know how to make it fit I'll give you this books written respons part one about a 500 page book some of the most difficult questions second book part two questions another 400 or so pages book number three written part three about 300 Pages 250 Pages questions some of them have not been

different lectures that he had about in written form so for we 23 books but really some of them are multiv volumes 24 ghost written of a book called quas already published 25 on the T which is commentary in the Tor 26 a respons written byon edited co-authored part one book very serious one is the head in Jerusalem today 27 Kim commentary 28 on on Exodus it's in a production now on Leviticus numbers and Deuteronomy are all in production now but already written another TW volume book ghost written new T the ghost written for a head of of Yeshiva in the United States but ghost written F too editing of new books that have not been written that have uh was handwritten by Shalom before he passed but whenever I uh published so editing those books and putting them in written form 36 world-renowned Tor scholar that's a head of the um one of the head MIM in OU yeah recently died 37 this was already published 37 a book called aam by me editor of it 38 editor in books by the uh genius Shimon Solomon different books that he wrote as former Yesa these already most of them already published or in the process of being published in the works it's now we at 38 to 45 give or take depending on how many volumes you count each and the works are a composition on the five books of Moses different than what we already have composition on Lamentations only with different insights and Lamentations the book of composition on Babylonian talmud composition on aor and Jewish minism composition on and many many many other things now as much as I would love to say this is me it's not this is my love now if my love was 300 years old I'd say wow this is amazing but he's 30 now I will never be this the funny thing is is that as great as my love is as great as my love is many people would like to say that they are better than much greater rubs than him like the r likea like now God bless him the chief Rabbi of Israel past and present have given him the uh letters saying calling him a genius you don't have anybody just calling you a genius it's not like a politically correct people just call anybody a genius even if the guy is have signed letters byon the president of and the head rabinal judge in monetary law in Jerusalem the chief Rabbi of Israel David which is the president of all calling him genius for his book for his different writings that he has a um Shalom wrote him a wrote him a letter saying he's a genius a uh R Salomon his former head R his former Rosa wrote him a beautiful letters and many many other Scholars we've recently translated all these to English we'll publish them on the uh on the website we see one G after another one big rub after another one big rub after another are calling him a genius he's amazing he's uh something special and so on and so forth and honestly translating them give me such a great feeling I just I didn't know how great he was until I read the letters even though I already knew how great he was what's the point of all this what's the point of all this the point of all this is this everyone that's watching this everyone that's watching this knows pretty well if you're watching this you know you're not going to write 40 books by the time you're 30 either because you've already surpassed 30 years old or two you don't have 30 books in you now let's be true let's say you gathered all your thoughts how many books can you write with your thoughts that somebody would actually care for what are you going to write when I was 5 years old I forgot my bag in the [Applause] house what are you going to write my friend Steve was what are you going to write like what cares about this stupid stuff what are you going to write we're talking about words of wisdom what are you going to write that's that's that's going to change the world how many pages how many the average person they're lucky if they get a page 40 books 40 books 40 books and many more in the makings but I'm not here to just glorify my R and tell you no the whole point is my r as great as he the much I love him and I think he's the and there's no question in my mind but the reality is he himself will tell you he's a nothing in comparison to in comparison to the previous and and all of the that we mentioned in now you could easily arrive at the conclusion that you can't write 40 books by the time you're 30 years old but yet you think you could arrive at a better conclusion than Kish you know that you can't write 40 books by the time you're 30 but yet you disagree with what the rambam said that's how ludicrous our situation is today the ignorance is so extraordinary we don't even know who we're criticizing people say no I don't agree with on this one do you know how great he was you fool do you know how amazing he was do you understand how much of a genius he was there was a radio show one time that they would have in Israel where people would call in the radio show and he would give them alic answers with sources off the cuff no books they would constantly mention on the show ladies and gentlemen I just want to remind you rob aadya does not have any books on him there's no books in in the studio we do not know who the callers are the r is answering off the top of his head and years later they took all of the shows that he made and they turn them into books and now they mention all the sources that he mentioned off the top of his head you ask him any question you want and he starts giving you the answer with sources off the top of his head the average answer had over 150 sources sources off the top of his head it's not like me trying to make a little show for you guys oh 17 and you guys think it's great the the extraordinary genius that you had walking on planet Earth Among Us just a few years ago is not something you can even comprehend Feinstein the the the these are not like us it's not like regular people can you be a good sure if you toil and you do what they did you could be a GD in your generation but you'll never get there if you already think they're nothing or they're like you because you know that although some people some really great people have arrived at the conclusion that my own robro f is a genius and which we all intend I mean it's reality is I how many 30-y olds wrote 40 books that everybody I mean I don't know anybody else that did that but let's say you have somebody wrote 40 novels I don't know you can't compare the two he wrote you uh the Smurf and Smurf fet went to the park 40 different ways it's not exactly as 40 different Al books but let's say you compare the two you know you can't write 40 p and guess what he's not nothing in comparison to nothing in comparison to the previous why because this is the reality that's just the reality to me he might as well be mosenu there is no difference between him and Mos as far as great I can't think anything more than this I can't think there could be a person that could write 40 books at 30 years old I've never seen anything and trust me I'm not a stupid person I'm also not very humble either as you can tell the reality is is that this might as well be the greatest but then you say wait just a few years ago we hadya who had like 70,000 books in his mind by heart I can't think like that I can't think how that's humanly possible if I remember a page I'm excited so before we criticize the great rabbis just understand your above average genius that you have in a just a few thousand miles away from here you can't be like him you surely you're not going to criticize him who do you think you are before you criticize the bigger rabbis who do you think you are before you criticize the bigger bigger rabbis like shim and now the worst part of it all who do you think you are when you're criticizing AEM that created all of them all of them put together times a billion times a trillion times a trillion trillion or nothing nothing zero next to a nothing when you understand the unity of a you know that it's one next to nothing else there is nothing else to compare it to it's not one next to zero or one next to two there is no verse there is nothing else there's nothing else but that one so since we're all smart enough to know I'm an idiot if I think I could critic size a person that wrote 30 books that we know about at least by the time he's 30 and surely I'm a bigger idiot if I criticize his Rob who remembered 70,000 books by heart and gave you 150 sources like it was saying peaches and cream peaches and cream over and over it surely I'm a Fool If I criticize him surely I'm a Fool If I criticize who he's quoting from a thousand years ago the rambam and the ran and so on and so forth surely I'm a Fool If I'm criticizing them surely I'm a Fool If I'm criticizing the one that they're basing everything they have from the they were able to Rive the dead surely I'm a Fool If I'm criticizing the prophets that are named in the Torah by name am I still a fool of I'm criticizing God or just crazy most likely crazy because fool I already established that on day one that's understanding hashem's Unity hashem's Unity is understanding how different he is than you while you and I are made of many parts he is not last but not least I believe with perfect faith that the Creator blessed be his name is the first and the last this is may sound like a desperate statement but in reality it's good to arrive at this desperate statement before getting to desperation meaning sometimes people are forced to have belief in hasem because they have lost hope in everything else that's not amuna that's desperation meaning if you lost all your money say oh I believe AEM is going to help me that's not imuna that's just because you have no other choice you have no other choice that's not that's not that's just because you have no choice you have to believe if you're hanging off a mountain Go's going to save me here that's not amuna that's just you're desperate you have nothing else to rely on what is it going to be a little Scorpion's going to pick you up on his back hey come I'll give you hide what else is going to help you nothing that's not auna that's desperation what's better though is to arrive at this conclusion that before you were ever even a thought in your parents mind Hashem already knew you as he says to the Prophet Jeremiah before he came I already knew you before you came into the world I already knew you when you were still in your mother's belly I already knew you what do you mean I already knew you I already knew everything about you I already knew your whole life your past your present what past previous Carnation future who's the previous who's the future jeriah why you here your whole life I already knew everything about you when a person understands the endless knowledge that Hashem has about us that precedes our own knowledge of ourself you now know that there is nothing before that to you there isn't to him there is there's people that came before you but there's nothing before him there's nothing before him and there is no such thing as after him there is no after him meaning you have nowhere else to to to hide stop trying to get your your your your goodies whatever it is that you want to get in life from some other source stop looking for good elsewhere he's the first he's the last he's the source of all good when a person has that understanding that good does not exist anywhere else but AEM they'll stop looking they'll stop building themselves up to think oh if I do this trade then I'll probably make more money and that way I could buy this house and if I buy this house I'm going to flip it and then I'm G to buy this other building and I'm going to do this kalas you don't have to go so crazy whatever is within your reach do whatever you can that's it kalas why because if the one and only God wants you to make money you don't have to kill yourself he'll just give it to you in a million and a half different ways it doesn't have to come in what you consider a natural way don't kill yourself chasing money or chasing a z or chasing anything but T why because if it's yours you're going to get it regardless of what what you're doing regardless of what job you have regardless of how many customers you have the more you think it's in your hands that the reward is in your hands the money is in your hands the less God you have in your life the less you believe in him why because you're not making room for him because your own ego is in the way now to speak about all of these things is not so difficult to do them much more difficult but needless to say we have to hear them and repeat them over and over and over again in order to arrive at that conclusion that this becomes a reality for us this becomes a reality for us now the K says to arrive at all of these high levels of amuna that God is the only God that he's the guide that he's a Unity that he has no body has no limitations he's the first he's the last this all of this is the prerequisite to having AA how do you get this fix your character traits this is the last part of chapter one these are all of the things we've learned the culmination of all of it is here and all of it are the tools you need to have in order to have amuna in order to have real faith in AEM this is in essence the faith of hasem broken into four pieces how do you get this he already told us at the beginning of the shield fix the character traits the more you perfect your character traits eliminate the negative ones and build the good ones if you're generous keep being generous you're stingy eliminate that you're arrogant eliminate it humble continue uh and so on and so forth good ones build them bad ones eliminate them the more you develop your character traits the more you align yourself with hem and that in itself will naturally grow into realuna inem real faith in hasem a lot of people can tell you oh you just have to have aun in hem have to have a hm yeah how do you have aun in AEM if you're walking around half naked and in essence hem considers you an enemy how do you have an amuna simultaneously while being an enemy it's like saying oh I'm an ally while I'm shooting a bomb at them it doesn't make any sense a lot of people talk about amuna as if it's just something you buy in a store oh I read a few books about amuna so I have a little more amuna no it doesn't work that waya is something that is giving us a breakdown of it it's something that you earn as a result of actions of perfecting character traits once a person has it there is no more questions of auna you just have it it's simply a status of being a state of being it's not something oh I have I don't have you just it just is it exists in you now of course that existence is not always the same sometimes you have more sometimes you have less some things are where the line is where you can't get more than this some you don't have no tolerance whatsoever but the point being is is that when you have aun you just know that you do this is how much I trust it this is how much faith I have in this and so on and so forth how do you get more fixing character traits this is one of the things we're going to continue doing in this series as we continue to the next chapter the next chapter in this also talks about which is in essence the next aspect the next aspect of uh of connection to hem this is trust in hasem uh and he starts off this by saying that there's an old misconception rooted in the hearts of many when it comes to the concept of trust in AEM known as be and he gives you the details of what's the misconception and then also what is the clarifies what's the truth we've completed another
