just arriving pretty much from the
catskills special for the share
and i want to thank my good friend uh
sheldon zeitlin
shelley zeitlin who has been my uh
uh my editor for
i would think already over a thousand
articles i
think so and uh for all of my swarm
uh shelley was involved in every single
one of them you're involved in
passionate also
yeah even impassioned judaism my first
safer
very heavily involved in power benching
and rabbi sandhya naram
and thank you for coming
and asking the questions
rav it's a great pleasure thank you um
the first question came via an email to
the ear goon
what can a person do to inspire and
encourage their torah learning
why is there such a disinterest in
opening a safer
or going to a and how can this
disinterest
be overcome
this question of
why so many people find it hard to learn
torah
really deserves a not one share but a
series
you see
there's a famous vote from the brisker
of
briskerov wondered there's a mitzvah in
the torah minis
watch very much your nephesh now
although
the passage says you're nephesh but we
know that
the gemara tells us it refers also to
the body
and although the miraculous skinner says
he doesn't know why it refers to the
body it says lenovo
it means that you should guard your body
for the benefit of the zone
so the biscuit rob wonders hmm
how come there are people that are not
such mahmir
they might even eat kalastam they're not
macbeth
but if they're not feeling well i am
kipper and the doctor tells them to eat
all of a sudden they become great
macmillan
no no no i'm not going to eat i am
kipper
i mean what gives i mean the doctor says
you're risking your life obviously if
you're saying you could eat
i am kipper that means you're in danger
of losing your life and all of a sudden
he becomes a big machine
so this giraffe says shot is as follows
when a person is so sick that he's
allowed to eat on yom kippur that means
that anything goes he could do any of
the available
mostly in order to live the only mitzvah
he has now
is ibrahim to live so that's where the
atari puts all of his efforts
not to do it that's why the person
doesn't want to do it because he hates
how it puts all of his effort on that
that's the only mitzvah yes
in the same way the eight sahara
is very selective and
he's going to work harder
the more important the mitzvah is
to the point that we all know that the
skyrim says
that although the atar never
procrastinates but he said i could live
with abrams
but with yaakov's learning it's war
yeah that's war
and the idea over here is
is that if the sahara is going to work
on
anything it's that we shouldn't learn
so we could expect the hardest time
of the different occupations of
religiosity
the hardest time is going to be to open
up a safe
that's where the atari is going to work
overdrive
it's not just learning
anything that has to do with shechina
you see it says
anything that has to do with sahara
works over time
in an overdrive when it comes to
marriage
right ishmael shalom that's why a
stranger could ask you something and
you'll do it
easier than if your wife asks you
you'll do it easy
because that's gonna
so the first thing it's important to
realize
that if you're finding it hard to learn
torah and there's always an excuse
why you don't want to learn and it's
just that you're not in the mood
and and it's not your speed
okay
thank you
that's because the sahara
really works on it that's number one
number two we have to realize
that the nemesis
to excellent
the nemesis of the eight sahara
is type the most says
so if you're going to learn torah then
the ato is out of business
the exile doesn't want to be like any of
us the tahoe doesn't want
to be put out of business and therefore
since the atari doesn't want to be put
out of business
the eight sahara does not in any way
shape or form
want us to learn torah deliver packages
with thai shabbos
cross an old lady across the street
do a lot of things but no not learn
now there are other things
first of all we must know that some
people unfortunately
have a bad taste of learning
they have a bad taste of learning either
because they didn't understand sheer and
yeshiva
this year was over the head
and therefore they came to the wrong
conclusion
that torah is not for them
we must know that that's impossible
there is no jew that torah is not for
them
and that's the reason that each and
every one of us learned kalatara kula
bamaya
now it could be that we were taught in a
way
that wasn't good for us
many people have that
another thing is is that some people
hated bikinis
if it was a fajr
they hated being embarrassed when they
didn't know the answer
if it was a written beginner they
weren't a good test taker
and it just left a tremendously
bad taste in their mouth for learning
you got to gargle rabbi
there's a whole world out there of
learning that has nothing to do with
tests
and maybe just maybe lumdisha learning
is not for you
maybe not there's a whole world of
learning
that you don't have to learn londus
a person could become a bucky in tanakh
a person could become a bucky a mishna
brewer
and follow the dew shoe shiram a person
could become a bucky in chess
that's all you have to know when it says
a person only learns what his heart
desires you have to
get to know what type of learning you
enjoy
and there's a whole world of learning
that you can enjoy
you have to learn it some people have a
particular bent
other people have a particular bent
to drush other people love bikias other
people love iron
it's all learning so you have to find
the field of learning that is good for
you
and by the way and when it says in the
mishnah empire
is it refers to your work
you should pick a work that you enjoy
because that's what
many are going to do the major majority
of their
hours that they are awake but it says
and
and that's why he was saved from the
wiles of the wife of patifa and
exclusive is learning
means that you should love your learning
now davenport in the morning when we say
rev
means it should be sweet however
it should be sweet in our mouths
now we also have to know
that we should realize that when we
learn
we're taking an elixir of life
just like we know that a person that
puffs a cigarette
is very likely going to leave this world
earlier
than other people it's very likely
that's why it's so foolish to smoke it's
very likely a person will leave this
world earlier
there are 90 year olds that smoked all
their life yeah
there are there are also a lot of people
on chemo without voice boxes because
they smoked
and just like a person that smokes is
likely to leave this world earlier
a person that regularly learns is likely
to live longer
in the amina and not only that
but it is the best kind of medical
insurance
you see all the medical insurance that
you could buy from your broker
cannot ensure that you won't become sick
you tell your broker listen
i want an insurance
[Music]
i'm not interested in that paying
hospitalization i want insurance that i
won't have to go to the hospital
i want insurance not that they're going
to pay most of the
generic drugs i want an insurance they
want to have to take the medicine
so the broker says i i don't got such an
injury i never heard of such an
insurance
the only insurance like that is type
refi
[Applause]
and you have to understand what this
means
this means that although most
medicines have
side effects and if you take it it's
good for one thing and it's not good for
something else
but torah is not that uh
first of all a husband that learns
gets more admiration from his wife
and also there's a reason why it says
torah brings shalom into the home
torah also is the best way to ensure
that your
children will learn
written defective without a love because
the best way to teach them
is for you to learn
so once again torah has many rewards
a person feels but i just don't feel
like
sitting down and learning you're right
yata is very powerful
you gotta taste it you gotta get into it
then you'll see that it's good then it's
gonna then you're gonna get infected
but we have to take that step forward we
have to do it first
you also want to join
who learn torah you want to learn
you should be in a group that's machine
learning
if you're in a group that's
the main thing that they're making is
that they're foodies
and they're machine the best kind of
glennovet
and the best kind of wine
they know they they notice subtle
differences
of the different merlots
right and they know
you want to taste a real good steak i'm
talking about a real
good a double snake
if that's going to be your circle then
you're not going to be
pushed to learn but if you're in a
circle
that is excited about finishing
massacres
that's excited about torah
accomplishments
that's going to help
now the women that are sitting here
might be saying you know he's droning on
about learning you know
i thought it was a reason why i came
tonight
oh is there a reason that you came
tonight just for this question alone
because a woman who shows her husband
that she's proud about his learning
is one of the biggest ways
to cause a husband to learn
you know i'm so happy i married you when
i see you
learning like this what a great example
you are for our children and
grandchildren
wow now remember
if you go to an airport
and you see there's this long line
finally they lifted some of the covert
restriction everybody's traveling
and this long line is oh my goodness i
hope i make my plane
looks like it's a two-hour wait and all
of a sudden somebody comes in
and two airport personnel come on either
side they start
ushering through him through they open
up little doors and boom
he's straight onto the plane whoa
he must be an important person
diplomatic pouch
wow we get to the next world
you know who's the vip in the next world
ashrae
fortunate is the person that comes with
with his talmud in his hand person has
to hazard a siber i want to be a vip in
the next world
and the way i'm going to be a vip in the
next world is tyra
come on afraid
come and get it boys
come and get it ladies
shelley wants to tell me don't forget
you have other questions
i know he wants to tell me that but it's
okay because
this is so important
is there ninety thousand people in
metlife stadium
for any other mitzvah
talmud tara connecticut coulomb
you don't wanna pass through this world
without
digging in without stacking up
there's just nothing more important
thank you
many times the rev mentions that the
greatest pride for a man
is when his wife has a smiling face
what are some tips to generate happiness
in one's wife
the arrogant is not known for its easy
questions
yeah man wants to have a happy wife a
happy wife is a happy life
and it's true what shelley said i'll
repeat it again
some people think that they're
successful because they drive a jaguar
or the latest model lamborghini
other people think because they have a
house with 60 lights on the outside
and 400 different types of windows
right and they have their own pool in
the back
and a mikvah they think they've made it
or they have the double windowed corner
office
or they have a home in the newest
development
in the catskills and another home in
ramachamesh and they have a villa
in schweitz that they've arrived
right the biggest
praise for a man is that walking next to
him is a woman that he's
causing to be happy
now of course a woman herself
could choose to be sad it's a
husband can't do it all but
there's a lot of things that a husband
can do
and there are a lot of husbands that
take a happy woman and make them set
so i think that the number one piece of
advice
is to learn to compliment your wife
women like that they like it
and you might not be able to afford a
tennis bracelet
at simpsons but you could definitely
afford to say nice things to your wife
it's interesting that this is so
important that in the
suva it precedes
feeding her and clothing her
it says on the f i care for azan
vapharnaes
so ikea is to cherish
you show her she's cherished
and then aizen is feeding her and her
fanny's is clothing her
so before feeding her and calling her a
man says
what is she complaining about i i give
her all the great things
and i buy her all the great stuff but
she wants to be
cherished he doesn't cherish me
he's more interested in so many other
things than me
that's a failure in the suva
the first thing is
before a zone france is
okay a woman wants to be cherished
she wants to see she is very important
to her husband
how do you know if if
if you don't call home when you're late
then that's not cherishing her
if you go away and you don't remember to
bring her something
that's not cherishing her and don't go
away too often
that's not cherishing her
first thing that you have to do is
cherish a wife
it's it's interesting i was
talking i don't marv last night in krula
in the country became friendly with the
plural forever
so i told them about this question and i
told them about
that i'm going to talk about saying nice
things
so he says it's a good moment right if
you're giving on the
money it's ms burris bushes brokers but
if you're my face i've been watching if
you say nice things it's 11 bucks
say nice things it's even more than
giving money
your wife might debate that you know you
know i mean i need the money you need to
give the money too that's
we're not talking about money without
right
you say well i'll say more nice things
and less money no no
now we don't have to reinvent the wheel
the gemara tells us
women enjoy nice clothes
it doesn't cut it to say you know you
already have a closet full of clothing
women like once in a while nice clothing
it brings them
you know you you don't want your wife to
say you don't need a steak you had one
last week
women have women have simcha from shoes
i there's so many shoes the ma reel says
buy our new shoes every yamtiv
women have simcha from shoes it's a
different
it's so interesting that
women are made differently
and they get similar from this
then there's another thing about making
a wife happy
don't try to make your wife happy with
things that
would make you happy you have to learn
what would make her happy
and her husband says i was gonna go out
to eat yet but she
she's not so interested in that
she's more interested to go to a very
common
she more interested to to shop
now the truth of the matter is that
that's not good a woman has to learn to
enjoy
spending quality time with our man and
and bonding and going out to eat is a
good kosher way to bond that's
but even so
the you have to know that if you want to
really make
your wife happy you have to learn what
makes her happy
it's a very important point
another thing to do is to
daven that your wife should be happy
every time we say sim shalom or shalom
rav
you should pay that there should be
peace of mind
your wife should have peace of mind
you should have it in mind when you say
they know hashem allah came to
shalom that we should go to sleep with
peace
and since happiness we know
that bisimra is the same letters as
makshava happiness is a state of mind
you could have this in mind in as well
this subject
is a mark of how successful we
are in this journey of life
if your wife is unhappy
then that's a very big flaw
in your success as a human being
you have to know that people fool
themselves and think what are you there
[Music]
she's a fetch
she's been sad all the time
hashem granted us a wife that's
r by that means that hashem
gave us the internal equipment
to make this woman happy
that's the idea bashet the idea of this
is that our boom you're in kind of
serious that means that
before we were created hashem
put rabbits and wice inside
that i should know how to make the woman
happy
and if we don't do it we're failing
at one of our most important missions in
life
it's never too late to say you know what
rabbi weiss is my error
i have to work on this it's never too
late
well what about the same with one's
husband
how can a wife generate happiness in her
husband
okay it's good that this
is split up because
it's a different as they say it's a
whole
different bowl of
a whole different ballgame
you know a good example of this is a
medarish in the beginning of esther abba
in the beginning of esther it says
gam vashtiya
it doesn't say anything about
the wine the crisis now
matthew says a woman is more interested
in the house
in the home decorating than in the food
a man appreciates food
a wife should know that
food you know there's a prosecution
missionary i'll cope
show him to casa
love covers up for many sins
good cooking also covers up many sins
you know we know this says
yitzchak loved asap kitsayed bef and
rashi says a one shot
because he cooked for yitzhak
and the fact that he cooked for yitzhak
it made a russian it created another
women have to know and we have to teach
our daughters and granddaughters
that there's a power in cooking a meal
lovingly for a husband it's very
important
in in making a good latte for a husband
that's you might you might laugh
laughter ishmate
but if you look in mesut silva's
one of the things that are divreichiba
that even if a woman brings in a hundred
servants she's
expected to do for her husband is moise
gino
sakais knowing how to blend
his brew is a special
heba and it's a
power that a woman has that's given
to connect with a man
now
a man also
he's surrounded
in the world with cutthroat competitors
with people
that he really doesn't know
what they're thinking of him or if he
could trust them
the one person he wants to feel
confident in and this is the first
accolade of the ancient sky
is bhattach bale byla
she i know i could counter
that's why especially in tough times
the ashes heil shines
but i know i could count on her
that's a very powerful way to make a
husband happy
this deserves a whole share too we got
to go on
fourth question came via email to the
more questions yeah
there are a few more let's give you 10
or 11.
what does one do if they can't recall
whether or not they said abraca
yeah this question came in i mean it's a
simple allah question i
i decided to take it because it
um it has
it reveals a problem of course if you're
not sure whether you make a broccoli you
don't make a broc another broccoli
because it's suffolk broccoli's locker
uh unless it's sometimes
different by benching and behavior
because those are the rice and even by
berkeley there are ways
to have in mind in avaraba if you're not
sure
right there are ways to get around it
but generally said rabbanan
and we have a rule suffic raucous
lahakal that you don't say over abraca
again
besides as the mishna brewer says
there's another
reason we don't say abraha because it's
a sufficient doris
alohumra because there's a love of
lysiso
of you're not allowed to take hashem's
name in vain and if you already made the
broccoli
you're taking hashem's name in vain so
it's a suffolk the rice
not to say the barakah because you might
be over the love of leicester
that's two reasons why if we're not sure
we don't make the block again if you're
not sure did i
say a shackle you don't make it again
but what i think is important to discuss
over here is the fact
that as we get older many people keep on
forgetting
did i make an ashiyat sin did i not make
an ashinatsu
did i do a burning fascist
hmm you know i came late did i say the
beer or not because sometimes people are
late they say the pickles say shock her
in the car
or they say the because of shaka while
they're walking to shoot did i
say or didn't they say there's a whole
bunch of rockets they're not sure if
they said or not
and as we get older you know now they
make things that you could attach to
your key chain
that tells you where your car is because
you forgot where you parked your car
right tonight you're going to come out
of this year
did i park it on avenue j avenue i
have a new k avenue l east
30th 28th
sometimes they find people wandering
around my chakras they're still looking
for that car
right right so
this should not happen with brothers
the reason why it happens with broca's
is because we
say it as we're spaced out
if we really say abraca we're not going
to forget if we said it
and that's why we have to know
when you come out of the bathroom don't
make the ashayatsu undergo
don't make it while you're booting up
your computer
don't make it while you're mixing your
coffee
stop and make an asha yatzer and thank
hashem for the kidneys and thank hashem
that you're not constipated
and that you don't have the diarrhea and
you're not nauseous
thank hashem that the stomach doesn't
have
any tumors and everything is passing
through well
thank hashem for the marvelous fact that
the body does all of the
uh separations
without us knowing what's good for us
and what's bad for us
and we're amino acids are needed and we
have proteins are needed
and everything is done on autopilot
right faculty monthly losses
now if you think about it you say it and
makes an impression on you're not going
to forget
wonder if you said an ashiyat and this
is true
imagine a person could be mistopic
whether they said the fifteen brokers of
berkeley
how could he be misupped if when they
said zeitgeist confused him they thanked
hashem that they don't have to go to a
chiropractor
when they said shahazali called sarki
they thanked hashem that they could pay
the bills
they have their full senses how can we
forget that
the fact that we're not sure whether we
made the brackets or not
that shows that our head is not
in our brothers and and brachas
brock is a big part of our protection
remember
because a hundred people were dying
this week's passion
you're out ticking maya
give me an easy one right this is a snap
first covet 19 then marone
in the stolen tragedy followed by the
surfside collapse
what does hashem want from us how should
we react
yeah real easy real easy
so we all know that with the close of
the gemara
we don't know why things happen
we know that argued
never gave a reason for the holocaust
at the time of the mises talmida rabbi
kiva then we had
the hazal that were able to say
covenzel is it
and when josefun writes
the historian that is quoted by rashi
that during three or four days of the
herb and bias
there were about four million jews that
died just in three or four days
so we're told that that was because of
sinners
so then they had people who were
able to tell us
we don't have anybody that's able to
tell us
we just know
that in times of sorrow in an ace
sarah we all have to look
within and say
what can i do because
we all know that cole yisroel
are ray vimselazer we're all connected
we're all brothers
we're all brothers and sisters you know
why we're all brothers and sisters
because we all have a common parent
israel well why are we brothers because
we have a navi
ship of shamai we all have a common
parent
and when they were sir by brothers and
sisters
we all have to do what we can to try to
better the situation that's
that's another question
however we can also
try to analyze and see
if there's some kind of a common
denominator to all of these tragedies
now you have to put it in perspective
people say wow
look what's happening there's never been
such a thing
my father oliver shalom used to say put
things in perspective
in auschwitz they were killing 12 000
people a day
twelve thousand people a day
that's four or nine elevens in one day
twelve thousand people a day and how
many people a week and ninety people a
month
however
one thing is clear
and that is a common denominator of
all of these disasters
all of them was it not
took our breath away
that's what happened covet
the owner of santander bank
in italy was worth about four
billion dollars
when italy had its horror
he died in a hospital which didn't allow
his
family to be there with his four billion
dollars he died alone
his daughter would write my father had
four billion dollars
and he died choking for lack of
air which is free without
the benefit of his family
kovid was a lack of ear
he may roam people
died standing from lack of ear
people under
underneath
the collapsing stolen
was smothered alive
and of course in surfside
they were smothered to death reminiscent
of what it says that
feel of the kind goddamn
shalom kibrayam
the lack of air
first brings to mind the mesovascular
ascore is diphtheria diphtheria
diphtheria is a skin
growing slowly over the windpipe until
it chokes a person to death
and we all know that mousha says oscar
comes from los angeles
talking about people
we're a people of torque
you know
we're professional talkers
now if we do it right then that means we
doven
we learn as i said we complement our
spells
but if we don't use it right then we're
busy schmoozing
we're schmoozing about the rove
we're schmoozing about the rishi
we're schmoozing about our neighbor the
counselors
the lifeguard the head counselor
the talkers the boozers
and that's the ruination of mankind
so we have to know that
people are always talking they're even
talking about how people behaved wrongly
during covet
they were too marketed they were not
marketed
they weren't coming to shore they were
happening outside they weren't happening
outside they were driving on a porch
during the time where we should be
watching about talking that's all people
were doing we're talking talking talking
talking and talking
talking about this one that didn't do
enough this one that did too much
this one that's paranoid this one that's
careless
talking about this infectious disease
doctor and that infection studies doctor
and this modern rabbi and it's not
modern rabbi
i have to know that that's one thing and
the
answer against los angeles is to learn
hilda
any book you want
because the biggest benefit of learning
hilukis los angeles
is that it makes it ramya adate
it makes it something that you're
thinking about should i be saying this
should i be saying this about a family
member
is it proper to talk about this about
the guy that i know at work
but then there's something else
i've never said this for robin
but you notice that there's been a lot
of trampling in these
marouane there was trampling
and stolen they were trampling in
surfside people were trampled
rabbi said we're living in a generation
where people are trampling upon people
i drive
in the country now
i'm a good driver the liaison hara
i've driven millions of miles probably
i go to a lot of shurim i go to the
country i go
i drive a lot i used to drive every
night for 30 years from staten island to
save my shoe room
sometimes twice a day sometimes three
times a day i drive a lot
i'm driving on the 42 from south
fallsburg to daven
mar of lake nicholsburg because i have
to i have a
share at ten after eight zoom they're
feeling me by the way anybody wants to
join my zoomed up if you have me
it's 8 10 now every night of the week
mozi shop is 2 block 10 20. you go to
zoom.com
and you put in my id
is my cell phone seven one eight nine
one six thirty one hundred
we'd love to have you have people
joining us from all over the world
it's a ten but because i do it i can't
have an amin
in the abnormal time so i usually dive
in one place
minka early at a quarter to two and i
down late in the night
usually either in cruel or in
nickelsburg going from south forsberg to
nickelsburg
i'm driving the speed limit people are
behind me
flashing me and then honking and honking
and i want to go
70. and they're honking and pushing
they're almost touching my car
and then they pass over a double line
you do that to an older person you make
them nervous they can make a mistake
that's trampling on people
people that make firecrackers that make
noise in the middle of the night
they're trampling on people's rights
people that play loud music in the
middle of the night
and other people's bungalows are shaking
that's trampling on people
people that come down a residential
block and if a person is going slow
or they're letting somebody out in the
car they start honking
after 11 o'clock in the night and
they're waking up who knows how many
babies in elderly people and even not so
elderly people
people that rise early
we have to be careful rabbi saying not
to trample on people
people that double park and lock
people's cars in
and then they come out and they're in a
rush and they can't get out and they
can't find a person
because the person says what are other
people doing on my planet
that's trampling on people
there's so many examples of this
rosh falls out this year on
august 8th how can we get into the
proper serious mood available
during the lazy days of summer
yeah hello august 8th
some people will go up to the mountains
or to any other vacation spot new
hampshire
and they go for the second month of the
summer
their vacation is just starting and then
they hear
raj dash
[Music]
rasay
says even the fish in the sea tremble
right you all heard that
i'm not thinking about the fish in the
sea i'm thinking about myself in a
swimming pool
how is a person supposed to muster up
the mood of din
of packard at the same time have
a much needed summer break and
relaxation
it is a challenge it is a challenge
however there are advantages
you see when when ella falls out in
september
and people get back into the grind
they don't have so much time to make a
husband and fish
maybe during the
more slow-paced days of summer of course
it's not that way for many people
many people say what are you talking
about summer winter spring fall it's all
the same to me
but there are many people that the
summer days
are slower and when it's slower
you have a chance to make a heisman fish
that by the way is what we need to do in
illinois
in l we need to make a judgment on
efforts we need to take stock
and the way we take stock is we go
from when we get up in the morning do i
say my da'ani how do i wash my naked
vaser
a washing legovasaru is so important
don't wash negative acid the right way
it could bring depression it could cause
us to forget our learning
it could hurt us with the ruach tama
especially a woman she handles food
she handles sensitive parts of the baby
when she diapers the baby and and and
without with hands that are not washed
correctly that rock thomas stays on the
hand and she poisons her family
it's very important how do i greet my
wife how do i greet my husband
how do i make broca's how do i put on my
filling do i notice the mezuzah
the summer gives us a time to
to take stock the summer gives us a time
to
formulate new plans
i said many times that you cannot
win without goals you can't play
baseball without home plate
you can't play soccer without goals
can't play hockey either or football
you need to have goals
so how am i going to be a better husband
this year
what am i one of my plans this is what
the rabbinicial wants to hear
the rabbinicial item he says
sure you got to believe that i want to
give you
a good new year you want a better year
sure just tell me how you're going to be
better
that's all i want to know how you going
to be better
summer will give us a chance
since we're getting ready for the mood
is anila dodiva dodi lee
i to my beloved and my beloved to me
direct proportion
the way i focus on my beloved
it gives us the chance maybe to take a
new look at how to dive
maybe when i dive in i'll do more than
just say the words
i'll focus on them i'll focus on them
okay i'll say
i'll say to them
[Music]
it's so good to thank you hashem
i'll say it with a little feeling maggie
momentum says it says hashem
hashem is a consuming fire
[Music]
he is nourished by our fire
that's the meaning of hashem hashem
is nizain from our fire
at the recent yashar initiative round
table
the rav answered a question concerning
why divorce is more prevalent
can you elaborate on this subject
that was an interesting thing i did a
round table for the joshua initiative
with uh rabbi bensian twiskie
and
and rabbi zwiebel
and it's uh it's on tour anytime.com
and it's about shalom bias and it's
worth listening to
it was headed by ellie goldbaum
so they asked the question of why the
voice
is more popular nowadays
truth of the matter is is it's already
for a long time that divorce is
unfortunately
almost a household word and already it's
understandable
that it's already generational
because it's families that
saw the voice and since they saw the
voice
the first thing a person thinks when
things gets
tough is i'll do like my mommy
i'll do like my daddy that's unfortunate
but of course the biggest reason this is
again a question that deserves a whole
share
the biggest reason is we use crystals
what we find by the gallium filters in
to our society it takes a little time
by the marriage is disintegrating
and therefore you know hallmark
discontinued the 50th anniversary card
they discontinued it it doesn't it
doesn't exist
it's not it's not marketable
i remember one of my beloved worked in
uh port authority
and he was celebrating his i think
40th or his parents with sarah liberty i
remember
40th anniversary and they looked 40 of
their numbers
four there are people that married 40
years
we're living in a generation that's
spoiled
the children had everything they needed
and wanted as soon as they wanted they
were on their scooter they get a school
they want a motorized scooter they get a
motorized and they want a segway to get
a segway
as soon as they can they want a car they
want this kind of phone they want
they want they want to get it and then
when they get married and they don't get
it
this is no good and then this is a
generation that nobody fixes things
who fixes things there's no repair
shots anymore you throw it away and you
get the next model
right the rep auto repair car shops are
having a hard time because people get
two year leases nobody needs to go to
auto repair
they got a new model every two years
it's all it's all very tough on marriage
um the best way to ensure that that
doesn't happen to our family
is to model good behavior make sure that
your child knows that mommy is the most
important thing in your life
person in your life and make sure when
the children are disrespectful
they get really really
a tongue lashing and they're
disrespectful to your spouse
make sure never to yell at your spouse
in front of the children
make sure to try to do things because
like we know
the lesson we learned from the ben
ceremony let's go further
at the workplace does anybody have a
portable charger for a phone
battery charger
iphone somebody has a plug
um okay
go further at the workplace
my secular associates are talking about
a show that depicts a muncie beijiakov
girl
who left her from kite and married a
what is your response to this tragedy
my response is don't watch the show
i'm not kidding you the biggest problem
is is people hear that there's a show
and then they think about maybe they
should see
why don't they know about it it sounds
interesting
i'm telling you that the worst the the
biggest
plan of the eight sahara in this show
is to get a lot of hidden to watch
now first of all i've read things about
this i looked it up
here's a woman who used to be a basiaco
girl
who says that every time she wears
on sneer's stick of clothing she feels
freedom
so that means that this show is
depicting
a woman in on sneer stick of clothing
very on sneer stick of clothing
so this we could call this show unholy
come come shatter might say get there
might say whenever you find
a protection against ever there you find
holiness
this show is unholy
so the first thing you should know is
that you should not
watch it yeah it's our hopes you'll
watch it
and then get into watching and watch
other things
every generation has its challenges some
generations is challenged
by
i think is up our generation is
challenged
with netflix that's our generation our
generation is challenged
by netflix how can we get yiddan
to give up a large amount
of their olam by sitting
and wasting them time watching stus
and even schmutz
that's that's that's what we want to
know it's good yeah
that's the first thing the second thing
is
is that
we should allow anyone to watch
something that could water them
their horror
to make it almost glamorous
a basayakov girl goes ahead
leaves yiddish guy leaves her husband
and marries a guy
rabbenu geshem in maine's sat shiva for
a child
now although we don't do that this these
days
and we see the return of a lot of
children off the dera when we give them
the proper support and love until they
return
and sometimes it's only the
grandchildren that return
but we should never people think oh
i could see it and not be affected
it makes a person
tell you to see it
especially when it's portrayed in a
glamorous way
it's the worst kind of poison i'm our
job is not to judge
the people yeah misha lily kim but i
have to tell you
in the history of mankind this might go
as one of the biggest killer gems in
history
reaching so many millions of people
any more questions yeah
another question came in my daughter
married a fine young man
who is a wonderful father and husband
and is a successful actuary
supports the family nicely in the night
he goes to adafyomi
in the morning he studies the parsha of
the week before going to work
however she confided in me
that she carries in her heart
disappointment that she doesn't have a
husband who
learns or teaches torah full time and is
worried that her olam habba
will be second rate what should i tell
her
this is a this is a real problem
this is a real problem
i've taught seminary for over 35 years
once a week
and there are many teachers
that tell the girls
that the pinnacle of your success
is if you could sacrifice and have a
husband
who learns tyra
now while it's true
that if a girl could sacrifice
and support her husband to learn torah
we just said talmud tara can i get cool
up
a home that has full-time torah
but it's not for everybody
and that has to be taught as well
because when it's not
taught the casualty will be
the serious girl
who realized in herself
that she can't support a husband
she can't raise a family and be a great
wife
and also carry the burden of panasonic
she knows she can't do it
so she looked with what we call a
learner earner
a caveat to matara
now what does it tell you tell us about
that
smart
don't feel like a second-class citizen
i wanted to be zwollen's says davishda
and you have to know are you cut out to
be as vulnerable
and supporting the torah and being a
baday orion
the command shabbos when it says what is
a person going to be asked at the end of
the time doesn't say
did you learn toilet all day the
question will be kavata yi tim latoya
and yes if she has a husband that
doesn't have a fixed time every 12 hours
to learn torah
that's something to be disappointed
about a workout
not directly she shouldn't tell him to
do it that's the best way to get him not
to do it
but she should figure out ways to
encourage him
to tell him how excited she would be if
he doesn't
but she shouldn't be disappointed if she
has this woman
she should instead know that she
recognized that her
sane that if she would have done it the
other way
perhaps she would have been a nervous
wreck
and caused shalom by his problems and
affected negatively her children
she has to be told that this was your
role in life
and that's why it says maisha naren
sometimes it says moishnan sometimes it
says
mulamid shishnayam shavin they're both
how could they both be the same there
was no one of
in the world like maisha there was no
one that saw mushroom
hashem paramount that's why moshe is the
same letter as hashem
how could it be schooling it means that
aaron fulfilled his mission
just like moshe albania fulfilled his
mission everybody should be happy that
they fulfill their mission and
every person's mission is different this
girl's mission was to be
a great super wife and super parent
to a great zvuma and that's a
perfect fulfillment of her life no
disappointment
should be had
okay my first daughter has entered the
scene in my effort to vet the candidates
i find myself trampling on the
prohibition against lush and horror and
judging people favorably
what is one supposed to do in such a
situation
how close are we to 80 minutes
this is the last question that's got it
um
okay the question was
my first daughter has now entered the
should have seen
and i wanna not mine all my children are
married but hashem
but shelley needs a a bunch of
stupid girls out there
shelly shelley's ineligible ladies not
girls but
you hear that he's really eligible he's
really good
yeah and in making sure if this is the
right one i
seem to be over on what it says have he
done as kolodam le capsules
i seem to be either on talking rashin
hara
what's the right thing to do
when it comes to shidduch shidduchin
is not the time to be don le castros
we're done with capsules we give people
the benefit of the doubt
but by marrying our daughter it's not
enough to give the benefit of the death
you want to know beyond the shadow of
that doubt that he's a good husband
there's a big difference
day down the coast
does not apply to shidduchim we don't
gamble when it comes to shidduchi
and you have to if you heard
that in the dormitory sometimes this boy
loses it and throws things at people
you better find out about that's not
lashing horror
that's your duty and if you heard that
he was once a credit card thief you
better look into it very well
if you heard
that he's been seen under the covers
looking at things on the phone
you want to find out
the same way you want to find out
if the girl is very spoiled and very
vain
you need to find these things out and
that's
expected from you if you don't do it
you're derelict in trying to make
certain that your child doesn't fall
into a boy that has any addiction
your child doesn't fall into with a boy
that has the wrong friends
or a boy that's watching secretly movies
it's something a house with movies a
house without movies is a different type
of house
and the murray that says that
there's three chains one of them is
the kind of a woman to her husband
that's very difficult
if if he's going to be watching the
movie stars on television
i want to thank you again shirey torah
and all of you for coming
