think of very long your yes yes I think
the list is growing and growing so
that's why your your work and everything
that you're doing is just so so
important so for the for for the
listeners that that um have uh you know
because we've had a break and just those
that are maybe not quite aware of the
incredible Outreach and inreach and work
that helon is doing so um Rabbi Lon
anava he died and he came back to life
and he's here really to inspire the
world and that's exactly what you've
been doing you've just come back from 10
weeks I think it's been was 10 weeks of
you you were away six uh 3 and three
three and three with a short break with
a short break and practically no sleep
and no
[Laughter]
food so in 2001 Rabbi Lon anava suffered
a near-death experience that changed his
life and since then he's been traveling
the world and lecturing and coaching
people from all backgrounds inspiring
them to come closer to God and to have a
better life rabbi anava has been blessed
with ability to restore hope and Infuse

years Rabbi anava has gathered a
following of over 10,000 students and
followers
worldwide with and growing at um
and currently there's over 15,000 active
students and thousands more that he
mentors with utmost dedication so
welcome Alon welcome back again my
listeners are very very happy that you
here I'm happy to be back
too so so this morning Alon and I were
just talking there's just so much to
discuss before the high holy days and so
I did ask you what was the most asked
question while you were in your travels
from your audience say well exactly like
you mentioned the the tour
started about 3 weeks in the east coast
of the United States and then a short
break back home and another 3 weeks in
the west coast in the Midwest of the
United States and the majority of the
the lectures were were concentrating
mainly on the the coming of mashiah yes
I mean the majority of the lectures not
the majority but a big part of the
lectures were my personal near-death
experience which this is the Highlight
when people invite me to speak they want
to hear that but in the last year slowly
slowly that one is getting less popular
and what becomes much more popular is
the fact that mashiah is coming and
people really want to know if it's real
if it's not real I get the same question
over and over
we've been hearing about it for so long
why is it why should it come now and
unfortunately even the the the observant
Jews don't really believe deep down in
their heart that mssiah is coming very
soon and non-jews Jews Affiliated Jews
religious
Jews the majority of people they feel
something is going on but they they kind
of find it hard to connect it with the
fact that an imaginary man is going to
come and save the world it sounds too
much like a fairy
tale and unfortunately I found out in
the last couple years everywhere that I
go that people really don't believe it
not only that they don't believe it they
don't live their life according to the
fact that could very much be that
tomorrow mashiah is coming and we're
we're redeemed so the majority of the
lectures in the these two trips were
focusing a lot on the topic of mashiah
mainly because that's the question that
I constantly gots everywhere you go you
hear Messiah is coming Messiah is coming
big rabbis in Israel are saying start
coming back to Israel don't live
Israel and start getting ready
everywhere you hear everywhere you go
you just hear the Messiah is coming so
the majority the biggest question I got
I would say is how do I really know that
mssiah is really coming how do I know
it's real how do I know so much about it
and that's why a lot of the lectures
were concentrating on that on the fact
fact mashiah is coming and right before
the trip I made it my business me and my
staff were working
overnight and uh when you asked if I
want to dedicate someone there's one
individual I know she does not want me
to mention her name in public but she
was working around the clock to make
sure that the book that I wrote comes
out wonderful and we manim made our bus
we might we it was very important for me
to leave to the strip with that book and
in the book there's dozens of sources
that I found in the
in the T in prophets in the in the Z
that really show us in a very clear way
that mashiah is coming that it's all
true how it's coming what we should know
and we were able in the St not only to
to talk a lot about the topic about
mashiah is also to educate people and
the book came very very very helpful to
answer this question it's a it was it
was a very hard question to answer in
two sentences yes yes so let's go to our
first break and we we will be back right
now we bring the news we bring the
action we bring it live this is
101.9 and so along just in in terms of
um the the book and the the sources and
just a just a little bit more what what
is it that people can do to actually
start believing besides
buying your book reading it and and
really getting into the topic and
understanding where we are sitting right
now
today I often think you know we've had a
couple of redemptions After the flood
and after the the you know coming out of
Egypt but the the coming out of Egypt
one was a big one but that one was done
by hashem's hand and it seems like
Hashem wants us to do this one he really
pushing pushing people's back to the
wall every single person that I speak to
is in such they're being squeezed like a
like a in in a grip that has NE they've
never been uh squeezed before it's
exactly like that it's that it's two
separate issues the first issue is
really believing that it's coming yes
and the only way to really prepare for
that is to get educated is to open books
and to read and I would definitely say
that the most asked question is how can
I know that it's really happening we've
been hearing about it for so long so I
always compare the coming to mashia to a
birth of a child so when a woman gets
pregnant she goes to the doctor the
doctor looks at the chart and he gives
her a due date and for nine months they
are counting the days and when the DU
date approaches then the excitement
approaches with it and sometimes the
baby comes before the due date sometimes
it comes on the due date and sometimes
it comes after the due date but they the
baby will always come it's not going to
make a U-turn and go back to where it
came from so yes we've been hearing that
mssiah is coming for so long but now
we're we're already pass the due date so
the the thing people need to do is first
of all get get educated and and I made a
very long research the research came up
with hundreds of sources from from our
Biblical books starting from the Torah
all the way to books of cabala through
the talmud and the Z the book is not
even a fraction of the of the
sources because when I put everything
together I would get a 5600 page book
which that will people will not read
that if I would come with a thick 500
page book people will buy it put it on
their shelf and it will be just
collecting dust so the book is very thin
it's only 120 Pages it's very condensed
and it has all the information one needs
to know and it's not all information but
there's so much information out there
that one can get educated with the fact
that we are at the time of the
Redemption and there's a lot of things
to do it's not just getting ready and
it's not just knowing about it one needs
to prepare and on the other hand exactly
how you said you're 100% right wants us
to to demand the Redemption he wants us
to to to scream for it and to really
want it so exactly like you said every
individual in this world is now pressed
to a wall with burdens whether it's
Financial whether it's Health whether
it's spiritual mental
and we all press to a wall only because
God wants us to to to scream enough I
had enough of it the problem is that
people pray for the wrong thing people
that suffer from financial problems they
pray to get a better job instead of
praying for the Redeemer to come and by
that I'm not going to have to worry
about my finance same thing with health
and same thing with anything people
unfortunately almost any second third
family has a health for somebody in the
family that has suffering from a health
problem that puts a burden on the entire
family and instead of praying for mashia
to come people pray for a miracle yes
you have to pray for a miracle and you
have to pray for the Rua for the health
of that person but put your your
emphasis on praying that the Redeemer
will come by default everything will be
everything will be solved and it's
really up to us Hashem doesn't want us
to just get it as a present he want us
to work hard and that's why you can see
that the world is how it is and the
world is not not hanging in such a such
a good place I mean even if you for one
second remove all the biblical
information we have just look at the
world with natural eyes you can see that
the world is not going anywhere you know
countries are are crumbling Wars are
everywhere economies are crashing so you
don't need to be such a a prophetic
individual you just need to look at the
world and understand that the world is
not going anywhere and you know you
asked one of the what's one of the
biggest questions I got in the tour I
went to the United States so everybody
was asking me who do I think will win
the elections and I and and I and my
answer was very short it doesn't matter
because neither one of them is going to
help us I don't it doesn't matter who's
going to take the elections no neither
one of them no world leader can bring
the world to the place that we want it
to be so it's definitely up to us and
and people need to to prepare themselves
mentally and spiritually and physically
and it's not so simple there's a lot of
work to be done yes and it's interesting
that of the generations that we are the
lowest of lowest of the generations if
you read our our history and uh the the
great sadik Kim that put the the Torah
together and the tanak together and then
put the talmud out and written down that
these were great great men and we're
living in times of of barely any
leadership we are really the bottom of
the barrel so how how does AEM Mi so we
we need to scream and and people are
screaming what more can we do do as this
it seems almost like
a
paradox in that we the least equipped
and we've got this big job on our
shoulders we're the list
equipped but we have uh unbelievable
uh database in our history that one can
really really not say we don't have
enough information yes we we lacking
these great spiritual leaders in our
generation but that was already
prophesized it it was already
prophesized that before the Redemption
the the great leaders will will slowly
slowly vanish that we're kind of going
to be by ourselves because really God
wants us to to to do it by ourselves and
there's a there's a concept it's taught
in the Zohar that before the world was
created the souls we were all gathered
around God and we were just given this
unbelievable Godly Revelation that that
resulted in this endless pleasure and at
some point the souls felt very bad and
they were asking the master of the
universe we we want to earn our share we
feel bad that we're just getting and
getting and the Z calls it bread of
Shame like a poor person knocking on
your door every day and you just feed
him so God says no no problem I will
create a world and I will put you in
this world and I will make you work for
your reward so in the past like a little
kid that the father is trying to teach
him how to ride a bike so the first time
the father R runs with the child and
then the second time and the third time
but after a few times that the father
says okay now I helped you now it's time
for you to go by yourself so the first
few times the child might fall but then
he gets it and the child will only get
it once he removes moves those extra
wheels and once he knows psychologically
that he has nobody holding his bike then
he says okay it's up to me I I I got to
do it this time so God wants us to do it
by ourselves he doesn't want us to be
like oh you know what it wasn't fair you
just gave it to us so I know many people
say it's fine I I don't need I don't
need the fame just give it to me but the
reality is that once we will be redeemed
and we will see the hard work of our
exile will understand why it was
stretched so long and we're actually
going to appreciate every day I mean God
really wants us to to get this reward by
ourselves yes and uh it really it's
really up to us and it's not so hard we
just need to follow a few basic rules
and and and we we'll get there b the
shame okay so we'll continue with that
after the break to business this is
101.9
good morning good morning and welcome to
the cavana show body mind and soul of
imuna and we are live from spat and I am
so happy to say that Alon RAB Lon anave
is with me again after a long absence uh
he's been traveling and doing the most
unbelievable work and just before the
break we were speaking about mashiah and
the fact that it is up to us this one
and you use a wonderful example of the
the the father holding the back the the
training wheels coming off now that the
training wheels are off and we like on
this backk I've got this picture in my
head of going downhill almost With the
Wind sweeping through my hair and the
the bik squiggling all over the
road ready to crash and the child
screaming help help I'm falling help I
don't know how to stop I don't know how
to stop and if I stop fly over the
handlebars so you just got to carry on
and hope to to get the the gance to
actually steer us so how do we get the
steering
right well that's that is a very long
answer which uh to make it easy on the
listeners there are two two lectures
online that are on my website they're on
my YouTube channel and they they can
find anywhere that they're named how do
I know mashiah is coming has there a lot
a lot of details step by step what one
needs to do but in general the the
answer is very short we need to to make
sure that we're learning Torah both men
and women women also have to learn Tor
we need to pray we need to get our act
together in doing following the Torah
and Mitzvah and one particular thing
that I find that is one of one of the
most important things because all Jews
are the same we all all have to follow
the same Torah we all are commanded to
do the same things there's no different
between the Jews when you look in the
Torah it doesn't say that there are
exceptions to to who needs to do what
Mitzvah it says to us that we have to
eat goer then we all have to eat goer it
says in the Torah in the Ten
Commandments we have to observe the
Shabbat it doesn't come with side note
by saying if you live in a certain area
in the world and you and you comply with
these rules and you're exempt so it's
needless to say that we have to follow
the Torah and we have to do MIT and we
have to learn Torah but but and we have
to we have to learn Tor but one
important thing that we're really really
lacking and we see a beautiful hint to
it in the month of alul which we are in
and about to finish in a few days before
R is that the word elul has in it a very
special hint what we really need to
concentrate on and the first two letters
of the word elul starts with the letter
alif and the letter lamed which if you
put them together it sounds
L that's one of God's names we have God
has many names we know about the name
Elohim and
Sh we don't pronounce the names but one
of the names is K Al and each name
corresponds to one attribute of the kadh
and this name corresponds to the
attribute ofid of kindness of
love and we see an amazing hint that we
know that there's a numerical value to
each letter and there are different
types of numerical values it's it's
called gatria the basic one that we all
know is that Alf is one and bet is two
and then it goes on and then CF which is
the letter after you there's already 20
and then 30 and so forth but there's
another type of gatria that it's called
gatria which is means that that the each
letter has a numerical value according
to its order so Al if which is the first
letter is number one and bet is number
two UD is number 10 usually CF which is
the letter after UD will be 20 but now
it's after C so it's 11 and then Lam is
12 and so forth and T will be 22 of
course so if we count by gatri then Alf
is one and lamed is 12 if you put them
together it's
13 we are taught that in the month of
the 13 attributes of Mercy are shining
in a very revealed way and these
attributes of Mercy when you're talking
about them you imagine a merciful god
but really these attri attributes of
Mercy as the way for God to show us his
love and amazingly we see that that the
numerical value of the word elul when we
count it in what's called gatri gatri is
that we remove the Zero from the number
of the letters so if lamed is 30 we
remove the zero so the
gatri the small gimat of the word
Al is 13 corresponding to these 13
attributes of mercy and corresponding to
this way that God shines his love on us
now how do we say love in Hebrew a the
numerical value of the word a is 13
which all boils down to the same thing
is Love Is that the attributes of Mercy
that God is shining on us is basically
ways how God is showing his love to us
and he's saying I want you to be like me
I want you to just have this
unconditional love to any other person
no matter who he is or no matter what he
did to you because God is the source of
everything even the bad things when
something not so good happens to me it
still went through the permission of God
which mean if I have to be upset at
somebody I can't be upset of the person
who did that bad s thing to me because
God allowed it to happen and I cannot be
upset at God because he knows what's
best for me I can only be upset at
myself that probably I caused it cuz a
lot of people mistake and they say God
punishes me God does not punish anyone
as we punish ourselves with our own acts
I call it a reaction not a punishment if
I do a certain negative act it will
bounce back at me a negative reaction
the majority of people they they they
complain and say God is punishing me God
is not doing anything God is basically
telling me I want you to have
unconditional love to any other person
in in the Jewish ter terminology it's
called is it's the opposite of the worst
sin that is called hating another person
for no reason and and that's really what
one what we really need to concentrate
on is this unbelievable love to any
other person no matter who he is where
he came from what he did to me how he's
affiliated with who he's Affiliated and
ifom that person is doing bad acts I'm
not obligating in liking that person and
I have the obligation of hating his acts
but not the Nish the soul that is
trapped in that body and when we going
to practice on on sharing this love and
accepting any other person around us
when it starts in my own home with my
wife and husband and kids and family
members that's really what God wants us
he wants us to learn how to tolerate
each other and to practice this
unbelievable love to any other human
being with charitable acts with acts of
kindness with tolerance with patience
with understanding and this is basically
what God wants from us of course we have
to learn Tor and we have to follow the
the the Torah with performing mitv
that's a basic thing that's air and food
to our soul we cannot deprive our soul
from that then that's where problems
occur when I depriving my soul but God
says I want you to stand each other and
the second beta mikdash the Holy Temple
was destroyed because of of of hating
another person for no reason since the
sin was not revealed and the length of
the Exile is not revealed and if we kind
to be able to fix that I believe that
we're going to have the Redemption right
away is the fact that I'm able I need to
start tolerating people that are around
me doesn't matter what they do to me
even if they're annoying me and even if
I'm a f 5,000% right
this world is not about being right it's
about being smart exactly so the main
thing we need to concentrate is at least
to take five to 10 people in our life
and start tolerating them and loving
them and showering them with love and
affection and understanding and patience
and that's one of the most important
things we need to do that will bring us
the Redemption it will and what's also I
find very very interesting is that on
yum kipur that we are forgiven for the
sins but the so-called sins the the
consequences of the things that we do to
Hashem but we are not forgiven for the
consequences of the things that we do to
our fellow man and fellow woman and uh I
don't think there's a there's many
people that do know that that they need
to go before even before rash and yum
kipur and to go around to individuals
and repair those relationships and just
say
sorry and or forgive when somebody comes
to say sorry to you yes exactly exactly
even if they don't come to say sorry you
should forgive yes that's a that's a big
one because people say I'm waiting for
the other person to come no wait and
it's like holding your
breath uh just to be active and just to
keep forgiving and keep forgiving and
Hashem does send those particular people
into your lives exactly where
the challenges love for each and every
single one of us so so a Israel um it's
it's a biggie it really is is a biggie
and uh that please God uh the all the um
that we can we can begin to get it right
particularly this Russia sh
y the same way I want to add something
the same way that we want God to forgive
us for the bad that we did and God says
no problem I want you to I want to see
first that you forgive other people
because to go to apologize to people
that's kind of easy I mean if you really
have the intention you'll go and you
apologize to the P to the right people
but exactly like you said people are
sitting and waiting for people to come
to apologize to them because they say
I'm right and he has to come to
apologize to me and I was last week in a
lecture and I heard a very interesting
approach
that this lady when she became observant
she went to her Rabbi and her Rabbi told
her that she has to
forgive a group of people and she told
him I can't forgive them they did too
much bad things to me so he told her you
must be much greater than God and she
was like what do you mean and he said if
God can forgive millions of people that
did bad things to him and you can't you
must be better better than him so the
point is not only going and asking
forgiveness is also to find in our heart
for the people who don't have the
courage to come and
apologize or even if they don't want to
because they're
ignorant but you should still forgive
them in your heart you should still
release and say okay even though that
person did something bad to me and I'm
100% right just the fact of me being
angry and upset and causing an argument
this is not healthy for my own B my my
own be wellbeing let me just release let
me just forgive everybody so that's
another big thing is to to to to also
let go of all these this hate and anger
and and and frustration that you had
towards other people and I believe that
if we would make this massive campaign
around the world of of love and
forgiveness and tolerance and
understanding that everybody takes on
themselves for three four days to be to
on their best
behavior that will bring the Redemption
yes needless to say of course that we to
practice it now right before but we need
it every day yes you know in my nursing
career I've sat with many people while
they are dying and in the opportunities
that I've had to actually build a
relationship with them and speak to them
one of the things that they that they
say it's a um was a common conversation
with them is that if they just had a
little bit more extra time that they
would go out there and and forgive the
people that they needed to forgive ask
for forgiveness from the people that you
know that they yeah and and that that
was like top of the list before person
is going to pass on to the next world
that that could be very much our answer
why the Redemption is being pushed and
pushed because hasem is telling us in
other words go finish your business
before I'm bringing the Redemption
because once mashiah is here that is it
and you're going to feel this
unbelievable shame if you had the
opportunity to apologize to somebody or
to forgive somebody and you didn't and
mhia is already here this it's going to
be like a stain on your on your dress so
I think you just gave us one of the
answers why why hasem is pushing the
Redemption what we really need to do and
if every person will make it their
business to go out there and forgive and
forget and apologize to a couple
individuals that that will definitely
bring it uh much faster and closer yes
yes and um
so before we we still got a uh five
minutes before the next
break do you want to add anything in
terms of uh suggestions in bringing mhia
in what more people can do I know that
there's plenty and to obviously to buy
your book how is that available for
people to the book yeah the book can
found on my website which is atm.com
www ATM which is atzmut
t.com uh there's a side banner I believe
where you can find a link to the to the
page of the book you can miss it if you
go on the homepage it's on the right
side of the of the page I think you
might need to scroll down a little bit
but you can find it over
there uh that is good for you to be
educated yes and to really bring down to
the point to believe that Messiah is
coming if you don't believe something is
happening I mean if the lady if the
woman is pre pregnant and she's 9 months
pregnant and if you don't go and buy a
pram and a and a diapers you don't
really believe the baby's coming so the
point is for us to really believe that
Mah is coming this book does help
because it brings a lot of clear
sources about the time of Redemption how
it's going to happen it's literally like
when we're reading our sources it's
opening like a newspaper cuz everything
was already predicted everything was
prophesies and in this book it
summarized in a very clear way
everything we need to do and to also
know to to believe that it's
coming uh we'll talk about it be soon
but just that you just that that you
know that that was Al also the campaign
when we were now on the big two tours in
the United States is the proceeds of the
book they go to fund our new learning
center inat and it's very important
because a lot of people they want to buy
the book to be educated but it's
important to know that the funds of the
the proceeds of the book we we opening a
very big Learning Center
inat and which is the second biggest
thing one needs to do to start getting
closer to bring the Redemption closer is
about educating and learning and we're
definitely in most most concentrating on
women because our sages say with the
Merit of righteous women we left Egypt
and with the Merit of righteous women
we're going to leave this Exile and it
seems that that the men have where to go
to learn I mean a young man or an older
man wants to learn toora he has plenty
places to go every Sho has classes young
ladies when they want to learn Torah
will they go to a seminary which we're
also lacking a of them but an older lady
that wants to go and learn has nowhere
to go nowhere to go and I'm saying older
I'm not talking about necessarily a
woman in her 90s even a 30 old woman
that has a a husband and kids she has
nowhere to go because who will babysit
the kids and she has no free time but
there's also thousands of women in their
40s in their 50s in their 60s in their
70s they want to learn Torah and they
have nowhere to go they'll go to a
seminary first of all they don't want to
be with 19y old girls more than that
most of the seminaries will reject them
they'll tell them you can be the
grandmother of our
students and also the lady itself not
only that it's also the level of
learning and the the quality of the
learning and in the last 10 years when I
travel around the world and teach and
you kind of got the numbers a little bit
wrong in the beginning we have over
15,000 active students W and probably
about 150,000 followers that some of
them are not really students they're
just following us but I saw in in that
time that women have nowhere to go so
they catch a here a lecture they a
lecture maybe a class online nothing is
organized nothing is said I mean half
the women in the world that are
observing they have no idea how to run a
kosher kitchen they barely know how to
to follow the laws of Shabbat they keep
asking can I do this can I do that or
they just don't do nothing because
they're afraid that they're going to not
observe the Shabbat the right way but
needless to say about the actual doing
is as women have to learn toat too I
mean what brings the Redemption to the
world is tor yes and not too long ago
somebody submitted a question on my
website why do natural disasters happen
and he the the question accompanied is a
natural disaster uh
punishment so you can find the answer
it's submitted on my website you can
find the answer I don't want to take the
time but one of the things that I
mentioned there is that where's a lack
of
Torah meaning that we'll be the opposite
of the Torah which will usually will
come in idol worship and and and all
sorts of
undesired negative things negative
things that's where God says okay I need
to wash wash this place with a with a
wave or destroy this place with a with a
earthquake so the point is that we need
to spread toorah all over the
world and and women are very powerful
women their spiritual Source comes from
a much higher place I teach the majority
of my students are women I can teach the
exact same class to a group of women and
to a group of men a group of women will
get it after 40 minutes and we'll apply
it and the group of men will argue with
me after 10 hours why and who and tell
me and show me and prove to me and
they're not going to apply anything so
the women are much more important and
therefore we we we I found the need and
the importance of opening the such a
center and needless to say physically we
have we I we didn't even advertise and
we didn't say anything we're just here
and there talking about it and I have
now over a thousand emails of requests
of ladies that want to come we we don't
even have where to put them you can come
and learn I just don't have where to put
you but H but it's all going to be we're
going to use technology and everything
is going to be recorded and streamed
live and B after the after the the break
we'll talk about it more but it's
important to know that this the that we
found a big building we need to fund it
and the the books are one of the ways
How We Do F fund the building so anyone
who buys the book besides that they get
educated they know they can know that
they bought a brick yes to one of the
walls of the center and it is one of the
ways how we are funding the entire
project which is a massive big project
and batem we can reach our goal very
soon Amen to that so we're going to go
to our next break and we'll be back with
you now the best part of your day at the
heart of your community the all the
music all the news
good morning and welcome to the cavana
show body mind and soul of imuna and we
are live from spat and I have uh Rabbi
Alon anava sitting next to me here and
uh we've just been speaking about some
of the very very uh um the really really
interesting questions and the majority
of questions that he was asked during
his tour his two tours now that he did
in the states and one of them as we
discussed earlier on was uh the coming
of mesiah and that he has a book out and
to giving
sources uh absolutely overwhelming
sources and then we just before the
break we were speaking about the role
that women will play and need to play in
a very very big way in terms of of
bringing the Redemption and just um
really uh fing a huge huge need and so
Alon has found the most amazing place to
actually do to take over a building and
to
house some of the ladies cuz the the
accommodation it's actually beautiful
accommodation and the so the setup is
there and ready for action and it's for
ladies you say over 30s over 40s over
60s 70 80 if they can if they can make
it off the
plane no age limit no age limit and that
girls you got your job cut out for you
the really and and I mean it I'm I'm not
just joking that
woman I've I've often heard from Top
businessmen that you want something done
hire a whole bunch of women and your
your your business will just rock it and
so so please God uh the center will open
very very soon and that the proceeds of
your book are going to go towards
funding it and feeding everybody and uh
so much more that goes to running a
seminary so alone if you can just tell
us a little bit uh more about uh the
because I I know from from our South
African listeners they've been wanting
to know what you know kind of lectures
that you're going to be giving and how
it's going to be just structured in a in
a nutshell well we're going to have
different programs there's going to be
the programs of ladies who come from far
away for short visits and mainly the
accommodations that you mentioned that
are very nice will be for the ladies who
come on these short visits because a lot
of the ladies are either married uh or
they still have a whether it's a job or
they don't live in Israel and they can't
come for three four months they can only
come for a week or for 10 days to get
inspired and they leave so we're going
to concentrate on a lot of short
seminaries that will be from anywhere
from 3 4 days to 10 days we already had
groups of women that came for about 12
days for about 10 days and from morning
to night they just get injected with
spirituality we're located in The Old
City ofat the one of the most holiest
cities in the world with spectacular
views and and and unbelievable just by
just physically being here so we will
concentrate a lot of all these weekends
and short short and long seminaries
which the long ones will probably be not
more long than 10 days and these will
mainly accommodate groups that come from
different parts of the world and they
come and they get inspired for 10 days
spiritually mentally emotionally
and it's not going to be necessarily
only about Torah and mitzah we have
unbelievable holy sites around us in
within a driving distance we it's going
to
include um traveling to yam and places
like that there's also an unbelievable
Spa here inat the last group that came
half the time they were in the spa
they going on walks and enjoying just
the the the surround in uh
another program we're going to do is for
the local women and local is not
necessarily just ofat because before the
summer uh now in the summer break
everybody went off for summer vacations
but before the summer we had uh classes
going on already we didn't have the
center but we had the classes going on
and ladies were driving in from an hour
drive from where we are in different
cities in the north and uh so this is
what I'm called the local ladies and
that will have a daily program that I
don't know exactly how many hours I will
be teaching I will be teaching the
majority of the lectures that's one of
the things that a lot of people were
asking me they were like I will come if
you're the teacher yes so I always make
a joke that you know I'm you know people
go to Disneyland and they want to see
Mickey Mouse so I'm Mickey
Mouse and it's funny cuz now in this
trip that I went in these two trips I
mean you said the book is going to be
funding the building I I I wish the book
would be able to fund everything this is
like a drop in the ocean so in these two
trips that we that I did now in the
states a lot of it was fundraising for
the for the programs and the
building and one of the the dear
followers that that took a very big part
in the in the finance I told him he he
asked me why Israel why you don't do it
in America so I said first of all you
know Israel is a holy place and Jews
should in Israel and so forth then I
told him listen I live in Israel so
people want to go to Disneyland they
want to see Mickey Mouse they want to
see me they don't want to see any other
person
so the majority of the classes will be
taught by me the the subjects are going
to be everything and anything they're
going to be very simple subjects like
like
oral which you know might not be the
most interesting to some people but a
lot of them is going to be about that
and the curriculum is going to take
everything we're have all the topics you
can just imagine we're going to be
covering the advantage of the part of
the advantage of that we're going to
take of technology that the majority of
people cannot attend it live then
everything of course will be recorded
everything will be access accessible
live even though a lot of it will be
done in the morning of Israel which in
the the United States it will be in the
middle of the night but uh everything
will be recorded everything will be
accessible we're going to be talking
about everything there will be classes
by other rabbis about different topics I
can't teach from morning to night I want
to give my attention also to the the the
groups that they come and to many other
things but we will cover everything
mainly the things that are not covered
anywhere else which a lot of it is the
oral law a lot of it is like about
things that we need to do and many other
topics that nobody's teaching and
everybody wants to know I mean I get so
many questions that people want to know
about you know what's called the books
of prophets and and scriptures nobody
teaching anything about these beautiful
books and many other topics of course
there'll be courses practical courses in
many different things and we want to do
courses in cabala and in zoh and and in
refinement of characters there's going
to be unbelievable teachings that that's
that's a for sure going to be amazing we
I definitely want to do a lot of
teachings of Z because a lot of people
want to learn it and they don't have
access to how to learn it and to find
the right translation B it's going to be
an unbelievable h Center of Torah
learning
and and of course we'll we we'll add
some some other topics and and not
necessarily about t but it's going to be
very very
special
and and one of the most important things
is that the majority will be taught by
by me and and people ladies especially
will have a lot of the opportunity to
come and be part of it and another big
section that we're going to concentrate
on is is we have a lot of student lady
students that are not Jewish yes and
some of them are in the process of
conver converting and some of them are
just are no Heights and I would say that
about 30% of my students are not Jewish
so a lot of the topics will be for
non-jews for that that for non-jews they
want to convert and for non-jews that
that want to live their life like noites
that's going to be another big topic
that we're going to concentrate a lot
because that's the majority of question
that I get okay I want to live my life
like a no following the seven laws of I
don't know anything so there's going to
be one big part just talking about
educating about that there's going to be
a lot of information we are we are
hoping that we now before and we're
going to do our
last fundraising Campaign which was
going to be online for the ones that I
didn't I wasn't able to reach them when
I came to the United States it's going
to be advertised on my website and
everywhere we're going to do an online
campaign because thousands of people
canot could not and cannot attend any of
the lectures but they do want to take a
part in it which I
strongly say that even taking part in
such a big program that a person is kind
of investing and buying
shares in a in a company in a in a
spiritual company that hastens the
Redemption and even if they can't do it
themselves then they they take part in
this big program that we do and they
they they have a big part in bringing I
I I strongly believe that the women are
going to be the ones who bring the
Redemption and we need to educate them
and anyone can take place even if it's a
male not by just letting his wife go to
learn T but anywhere anyone around the
world can take part in it and there's
going to be details on it on my website
in both ala.com and atm.com and on our
social media when we're going to start
the campaign and yes anyone who can take
part of it is going to be a a huge
Mitzvah wonderful it's like building the
bricks of the beta mikdash yeah sounds
like it sounds like and you can outgrow
it very quickly we already outgrew it
before we started before you started so
we're going to go to our last break and
then we've got a couple of minutes just
to wrap up we'll be back
now up youed this is 101.9 High good
morning and welcome to the cavana show
Body Mind
Sol of and we are live fromat and I've
got the absolute privilege of having
Rabbi Lon anav with me this morning and
we've been speaking about mhia we've
been speaking about uh Raba Lon anava's
book with the uh all the dates and the
the education to the coming of Mah and
we've been speaking about the bar Miriam
that's the woman Center for for uh older
woman and uh I was just looking at your
your brochure and I and we've literally
got just a couple of minutes in just if
just to mention the the all the other
things that that you doing just one by
one um that couple minutes will not not
it won't last won't last but we doing a
lot of lot of things a lot of things we
have uh all the information can actually
be found on my organization website
which is the same name it's atmb but.org
thm.com
is where the
Torah lectures go on but at smut.org it
shows about our
non-for-profits which we do a lot of
other things not only Outreach and
education we we have a food bank and a a
general fund that we help Brides what's
called and poor people and clothing and
we there's a lot of things yes that are
be done we started bringing now groups
of teen to to Israel to educate them
about the land of Israel and and our
backgrounds and roots
and we have our hands full yes and you
know one more any more sold that we can
add to to to the bank then we have to do
that but really really would would bring
the haste and the G's acts of kindness
and acts of Charity and and you can find
all the information it's organized very
well on the website at smut.org
not.com
and but yeah we do a lot of things now
we're concentrating mainly on the women
Center because that's the biggest
project mainly because the the the
funding this project all the other
projects a lot of people donate and
people partner and people help so but
that's in in in small incre small
amounts yes so a lot of the help that we
do is is basically freeze helping teens
people in dire stays it's not about
money yes a lot of the help that we do
pay help we we feed a lot of poor
families and so forth so that's in not
big amounts now this lady Center just
purchasing the building that's already
in amounts that we never we never dealt
with and running all the programs and
and and everything that comes with it
so you can be educated in all the stuff
that my that our organization does now
before the holiday and before the coming
of mhia we're really focusing a lot on
the on the women Center because we have
everything combined in it we have Torah
and Mitzvah and education and especially
nourishing the the ladies and it's not
only by one thing I didn't mention in be
it's not only about learning Tor but a
lot of the ladies that do come to me are
either coming after they're being abused
and I and the list goes on and on and
the center is also their Sanctuary not
only to learn toah but also to have a
place to to sleep and to eat
and to be loved and and accepted and not
only learning Torah so that's one
important thing is that a lot of the
ladies that I that I help yeah they want
to learn T and they want to be more
observant but they need a place it's not
a shelter I don't want people to Shalom
think it mistaken it but unfortun with
the unfortunate reality a lot of the
women's they they they need just you
know a place to be and and to get warmth
and love and understanding and guidance
and and
andem is keeping us very very busy yes
he is keeping you very very busy and
with that we've come to the end of the
show so I just want to wish every single
one of my beloved listeners uh
shatar and uh that we're going to be
having a show next week but the one
after that there it's yum kipur and to
have the best Wednesday to have the best
rest of your week and to have the best
shabas and with that with lots of love
from cavana Baba
