Little acts make a huge difference - That's how we'll bring Mashiach - Rabbi Alon Anava

[Music] so first we're going to dedicate tonight's to the health of and benil and also to the and all the rest of the souls that need alah mayem bless them with and whoever needs Health should have health whoever needsa and all is should be blessed with all the good and the kindness that the bestows on us so we want to talk tonight about kind of like a general General topic about what's going on in our lives how we can make our lives better and the main topic that that needs to be focused on is the coming of the Redemption and and in many places that I go and I constantly just talk about the gah and the Redemption and mhia is coming and doesn't matter in which Community or which group it is I always hear the same thing ah yeah yeah yeah we heard about it already we heard about it for thousands of years leave us alone and the reality is that it's true we've been hearing about the coming of the Redemption from the first day the world was created right from the second verse in the Torah it's it says already it's talking about the coming ofia says this is the spirit of mashia so we already know from the day the world was created that Messiah is coming and in many different places that we read and we find so many different sources and points about the coming of the Redemption and be so many years we've been waiting thousands of years we've been waiting so it seems to us okay it's not happening in my lifetime you talk about the word mashiah some people start getting all not comfortable for many different reasons the reality is that if you look at the world with physical eyes you already can see very clearly that there's no other solution or no other a end but for mashiah to come and in many places it's a very touchy subject mashiah sounds very not in not in our lifetime but if you try to go to the mind frame of the Jews 3,300 years ago going in the time machine to MIT and try to think how they were living their life so they were in their slavery and they were in their limited state of mind and whether they were carrying bricks or not that's not not the point but the point was that they were living in MIT which MIT is not necessarily the name of the country country rather it was the state where they were in MIT comes from the word a limit something that limits us and they were in a state of mind of a limitation so the story is that they were slaves that they were working in slavery and as Rashi explains whatever it says in the Tor that's how it was but really they were stuck in some type of a limited State of Mind and even though they had a prophecy from abah ainu who passed to and then yob they knew they're going to be in a land a foreign land and they knew they're going to be in Exile and they also knew they're going to be redeemed so even when the news came that they're about to be redeemed they really didn't believe they're like ah yeah you know it says that they they didn't want to hear from they didn't have their their mind now really nothing really changed in the last 3,000 years the Jews that were in MIT were exactly like us no difference the only difference is they didn't they didn't have iPhones that's it but there were human beings they had clothes like we have clothes they had homes they had relationships they had jobs wasn't maybe a different scenario but the reality is that they Liv their life and the same way that the Tor says that they did not have patience to hear about the Redemption because they had a hard life also have a hard life I mean you look at any person now and you ask him is your life easy no my life is hard I have to work for my living I have to pay a mortgage I have to pay rent I have to educate my kids my kids one kid is doing this one k is doing that this has a health problem that guy is sick so we also have a life is not easy I don't know many people that their life is so easy some people just have a good attitude about it and they say okay that's part of life so I live I I I'll live I'll survive but the reality is that we're in the we're in the exact same place we also have the problem what's called that you know the easiest way to to translate it would be to say overwhelming so sometimes this life can be overwhelming and and the the reality is that each individual doesn't matter who they are the K makes sure that each one in this world has something to deal with and there's a reason for that but the reality is that even in our generation every human being has something to deal with some person doesn't have parasa some person has a relationship problem some people they can't get married the other other person can have children everybody's dealing dealing with something so we also have the same thing we also have hard work and we also have we our life is sometime can be overwhelming and when then they got the message that they're going to be redeemed they were like okay leave us alone we heard about that that in the beginning when mosenu came nobody believed him everybody told him okay you know keep on going we don't we don't we don't believe you even so nothing changed from then to now and also now when many of our sedim and big rabbis is saying the G is coming the Redemption is coming people like yeah yeah yeah let me go back to my life I have a mortgage to pay I have a family to to to support leave me alone now with your with all these ideas but the reality is that we have so many signs that we are in the generation of the Redemption that one needs to be completely not focused on the reality not to see that that even if you're looking it in a physical way you see that the world is there's no physical solution you're looking at the biblical and the mystical part of it there's hundreds and hundreds of sources that show exactly how it all has to happen I mean we're not going to do we're not going to repeat this lecture tonight but if you want I have a lecture online two and a half hours where I'm showing sources and and and and information from our scripts that are showing exactly that we are at the time of the Redemption the point is what is that going to do with me and how how is that affecting me because the reality is that I still have to pay my rent I still have to pay my bills I still have to wake up in the morning and I still have to deal with my life so how how is that affecting me why why should I be concerned with the fact that maybe an imaginary human being is going to come and redeem us and I'm saying it in a in a way of imaginary human being because that's what a lot of people think it's not imaginary it's a real human being that many of them kuim in our generation say already he's already here in Israel he's ready he's ready to be to be appointed so some people think but they come with all sorts of inventions oh no mssiah is a concept all sorts of ideas but the reality is exactly like moso we have a mashia and there's many many mikim in our generation that say he's already he's living amongst us nobody knows if he knows his Mas that we don't know we're going by the the prophecy of is the same thing likeu 80 years with a very special man he didn't know he's the Redeemer one day he goes out for a walk with his little goats and he sees suddenly a Godly Revelation so same thing now we have a mosu amongst us we don't know who it is but there are many signs that Messiah is already among them if he's ready to redeem us he has to be a human being he can be a three world so the reality is the mashiah is around us we just don't know who it is or when he's coming or why he's not coming I mean there's a great Wonder because if you go by all the sources with many different prophecies and calculations we already passed the time that Messiah should have come already because we know that there's two dates when mashiah can come one of them is in its time and the D date is this called the same way that a woman gets pregnant she goes to the doctor the doctor looks at the child and he tells her your due date is January 27 I calculate the weeks we know more or less when you got pregnant but 99% of the cases the woman doesn't give birth on the due date sometimes it's a week earlier a week later so the same way the Torah tells us in a clear way there's a due date there's a date where mashia has to come this is ba and then there's another option I'll bring it much faster says in the if the Jews do CH if we do CH we get our act together right away we get redeemed the good news is that we don't need all the Jews we don't need all the millions of Jews in the world to do Chua because we don't even know who are all the Jews there are thousands and tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of Jews out there that they don't even know they're Jewish so we don't need all the Jews in the world to do chuva we just need a one strong group of people and doing cha is not necessarily meaning that they're super Jew from head to toe and and they're that's not the level what we need we just need a strong group of people who are committed and they do their cha and this can bring the G right away but again according to all the sources that we have we already passed the even the the opportunity of the we already passed that's it we passed it all which is a great Wonder many people say I mean in the year T which was 1989 they thought when the golf War started then all the sadim said okay this is that's it that's probably go Magog and that's it and we're and we're going to be redeemed now so the point is that if you look into the scripts you see that we already passed the due date and we passed the opportunity and there's a great wonder why mashia is still not here I mean I have a theory but it's only a theory and don't take it don't take it as a source but my theory is that mashiah is already here and every day he wakes up in the morning and he tells AEM okay I got to got to do my job got to get the Jews out of Exile and hasm tells him you know I looked online and I saw that tonight there's like a thousand lectures you know how many people will do cha tonight you know how many people will get you know we'll get their act together maybe if you went one day we get another 5 6 700 B CH tonight so hasm says okay s fine we'll wait we'll wait another day and the next day the same thing and every day hasem tells him maybe if you wait one day we get another 100 another 200 another 300 so I see it and and in a very amazing way I actually somebody sent me a link to some article that they say I don't know if it's if it's true or what's the sources to that about there are two rabbis in our generation that are constantly praying for the exact same thing that the the Redemption will be a little bit delayed so there'll be much more that do Chu and again I don't know how true the source is but the fact is that there is a great wonder why we're not redeemed and my opinion is that hasem has a lot of Mercy on us and he says I'm going to give you another day I'll give you another day I'm going to give you another day too to grab another Mitzvah there was a great sadik that one said 200 years ago that when the Redemption will be here we're going to look back at the time of Exile and we're going to miss the time of Exile cuz because we're going to understand what we could have done what I could have achieved at the time of Exile thank you I have here thank you so much because the reality is as long as mashiah is still not here as bad as it is we still have time to grab more mitv to do more Good Deeds to learn more Tora to help another Jew so really when you're looking at it it's all the kindness of Hashem we're complaining because we're still not redeemed but the reality is that it's I see it it's kind of the kindness of hasem that he's saying no problem I'll give you another day the problem is that there's about 0.00001% of the people in the world that wake up in the morning and instead of complaining they're like wow I have another day I woke up I can do more today so most people don't wake up like that most people wake up and they hit the the the alarm clock to go back to sleep and I don't know many people that wake up in the morning morning you know a lot of people when they wake up in the morning when they say they say it in the speed of lightning you know it doesn't even sound like I I you know I never met anyone who wakes up in the morning is like I'm back I'm back you know who wakes up like that nobody wakes up like that but the reality that's how we should wake up in the morning we should wake up in the morning and be you know saying with all my heart M I'm I thank you you gave me another chance I have a whole day now to pray to do mitvah to learn more to help another Jew so the reality is that every day that that we're still delayed one might say it's that does with us because once mashiah comes that's it it says we don't accept any more converts and we don't accept any more the point is how is that affecting me now today and not only today in the last two weeks a lot of people are turning to me and telling me what do you think about the fact that Trump won because everybody was predicting that that that Clinton will win and there was all you know all these theories what's going to happen if she wins it's like this it's like that the reality is that I first of all I don't like getting into politics because politicians are just a Shams puppets but the fact that Trump won it just goes to show us a that the controls the world he can do whatever he wants and everybody that had their ideas that she will win or whatever Hashem says I run the show I decide who's going to get elected but more than that we see something even more amazing because all the odds went that she will win and for whatever reason the the US presidentials like as if it's affecting the entire world which is kind of is but all the odds show that Clinton should win and everybody was seeing of Shalom she wins she she's not good news she's not good news at all and I'm not talking politics right now I'm not getting I don't hold anybody's side I I vote for the kadh not for a human being but if Shalom she would win she wouldn't be good news to us she she would be a channel through her a lot of problems could have happened and again it's the choice of the Kosh not the choice of anyone else but the reality is that when all the sources are talking about the Redemption it's talking about that the Redemption the Gula can happen in two ways either it's happening what's called it's going to come very nice and smooth or not that's it and if it's not then it's not going to come in such a nice way to a point that our sages in the in the said I don't want to even see how it's going to look if shalom it's not coming nice and of course you know in many different sources we we we know there has to be a big war before the coming of mashia and go Magog and a lot of predictions of Armageddon and the world is going to be destroyed and all these bad things that there's that there sources for that the point is that that we don't want it to come like that AEM is giving us an option you choose you can either get the Redemption nice and easy or you can get the Redemption with a lot of headache and if you're looking at the world through the physical eyes not for the biblical mystical eyes just from the physical eyes and just open the papers even though the papers they don't really tell the truth but the reality is that you see how the whole world is Shifting in such a way that it look like any second a World War can start 300 years ago the G from VNA said that when you'll see the Russian Navy crossing the sea straight of the borov then you can put your shabas clothes on cuz mashiah is coming and we saw in October 2015 that the entire Navy the Russian Navy crossed the sea straight of the and now in front of Syria you have aircraft carriers nuclear submarines the biggest nuclear submarine in the world the Dimitri holds enough nuclear power to destroy the world why is it parked there so the Russians are saying yeah we're fighting Isis you need a nuclear submarine to fight a bunch of hooligans you don't need a nuclear submarine for that and now two months ago you see the entire Russian Navy is crossing all the why the Chinese Navy you know there's a prophecy by Rish shim it's not in it's in and says and here is for you a sign when you see the ruler of DC falls down they know that the goel the Redeemer of Israel is close to come it goes more in more more details to that but it says that there's going to be a war M of east of yush and when the ruler of D mesic will fall just know that then that's where the Redeemer will come and amazingly he's giving a name he's calling the ruler of the M N M now where is the word now concentrated in Syria Syria is east of of yush and and it's actually saying theic like now the capital of syri is domestic but who's n m so there's no n m right now but the numerical value the Gat of n m is the exact numerical value of Bashar Assad 571 so when we see that the Ru the ruler of domestic Falls and you know the Redeemer is here so you see fall that if Shalom wants to move his players towards the war in a second it happens but the reality is that there's so much kindness and from the that we don't even realize how much Miracle is happening around us all day long all day long we're living in a miracle the fact that we're surrounded with armies of our haters and hundreds of thousands of missiles are pointed at us any day all it needs to take one button and barrages of missiles fall in here nothing happens okay here you hear of a stab here here it's nothing compared to what they would do if they would have the opportunity so every day we're living under this umbrella of unbelievable Miracles that every day that the nation's trying to destroy us and we're sitting here safe now I'm notom underestimating what the the damage that is happening there are attacks every day there are Terror attacks there are bad things that are happening but it's a minimum compared to what it could have been so when you're looking at the the the big question about how did Trump win forget about the fact that it shows us that yes controls the world but more than that that's how I see it and many great rabbis see the same thing that it seemed like there was a very big Z it didn't look so so good and in the last year there was so much going on and so much work towards advertising the fact that mashiah is coming in March I did a very big lecture in America about the coming of mashiach that lecture got online quarter of a million views just from my channel now the the organization hiut they filmed it they also got couple tens of thousand to Any Time film it they got couple tens of thousand so I don't even know the how much views they got I know from my platforms they got over a quarter of a million views that's a quarter of a million people that saw this video that they woke up to the idea that wait a minute we can't sleep something might happen here because it's a pretty harsh lecture and usually my lectures I'm not like the type that somebody told me it looks like you look like an Armageddon Rabbi I'm not an Armageddon Rabbi I just showed some some facts but it is it was pretty harsh lecture let's put it this way but what was the reality that I believe the tens of thousands of people said wait a minute this is this is real and you see now in last two months ago probably tens of thousands of Jews did such amazing Chua that you see in front of our eyes that the kadh is like as if he's changing now our our path and our faith and says yeah you can we can get the Redemption come nice and easy cuz if Shalom and purpose on saying shom Shalom Clinton would get elected that would wouldn't be good news and again it's not about politics here and it's not about my personal opinion it's just that's how it would have been and the reality is that you we see like as if the kados accepted the Chua of the Jews is accepting our Good Deeds is accepting our our our Torah and he's saying okay I'll I can deliver the the like that and it's going to be easy now I'm not now coming and saying that Trump is such a great person and I don't know his agenda his agenda is what the Kosh is going to decide what's going to happen he can be good and he can be not good I heard an an interesting analogy that Trump is like a he's not here not here and he has aash I don't know his wife was apparently like a model or something so his wife is a vashi and now his daughter converted so we have Esther in the in the palace somebody gave like a real cute analogy here and I said yeah you know can change everything I mean really what we see now that happens in our generation now is two concepts that are well known one of them is called is that the the the ones instead of appreciating what they had they M they they they went against it but whatever was tackled and was joked that became the that was the the Cornerstone but more than that you see see literally in front of our eyes that the K did the exact same Miracle 2,000 years ago the miracle of you see that was here because it seemed like we're not going into such a good place it literally looked every day there was threats Russia we're going to nuk you this we're going to nuk you we're going to destroy you all day long there was just threats suddenly you hear you see like as if things like as if it it looks like things Cal down I see that it was m the Kos is accepting our amazing chuva and we definitely have the opportunity of getting the Redemption in a very sweet and nice way now how is it affecting me on my personal level because most people if you tell them you know that you are responsible for everything that's going on in this world you wake up in the morning and you go to pray with them inan your little act affects the entire world Raam says one mitvah of one Jew it doesn't matter who it is tilts the the scale favorably now lot of people you know they wake up in the morning they're too busy with their life I don't want to hear about it okay I'll do my but very few people really internalize the fact that hey you know I'm a I'm a valuable player here I'm I'm a powerful Jew now it doesn't mean that all day long from morning to night you have to be immersed in Tor and mitv that's great if you can but if a person is just fighting his doesn't matter if he won now or not that's not the point the the victory of the lost that you leave to the the wants somebody to overcome his he'll overcome it and if wants somebody to fail you're going to be the biggest s ever you'll fail the point is that the the the victory of the loss that has to do with the Kosh the process and the effort that has to do to with you says you just do your effort you just fight don't worry about the result right now and each and every one of us are battling all day long with our things a person one person's hard for him he can't go get up in the morning to pray with them inan another person can't even pray another person to get to to tole him to do one Mitzvah it's a big deal every person is toally different one person is have a lot of problems with just dealing with with people around them the point is that each one of us has our Challenge and our challenge is my Challenge and my job here is to fight it not to overcome it is to fight it and that's the mistake of a lot of people that they say oh I didn't win my one time two times three times 10 times that's it I give up I'm a loser but the point is shim explains a concept in the Z that he says that there constantly a battle between me and my sit the other side that opposes Holiness and my job is to do what's called ITF I have to subd my that's my job that's what you were created for to subdue your now if you able to do that then the result will be is to transform and he says transforming the darkness into light and the bitterness into sweet so all day long I'm going to be placed with a challenge doesn't matter what it is and each and every one of us has a different Challenge and of course the challenge is I'm talking about my not challenge with making which that also can be translated to how much I have in AEM how much trust I have but the reality is that I was created to constantly fight this sit and the result is less important it's the actual effort that I put in it what I need to take from that that my effort actually makes a big difference what I do affects everybody around me so if I now F my not to say or not to lie or if I have an issue with lying so instead of lying 100 times a day tomorrow I lie 99 times a day one time I zip my mouth the fact that I was able to Once zip my mouth and not to say a lie or or any type of slander or gossip that that's what counts what counts is the fact that I'm aware that I'm not doing 100% the will of hem forget right now if you win or not this is not the point right now of course we want to always win the and we always want to do the will of the Kos but what counts right now is first of all the awareness cuz how many people out there they're not even aware you how many people are out there they're not even aware that it's Shabbat and that they have to keep Shabbat it's not a person that says oh I know it's Shabbat I just don't feel like it at least he's honest and he says I don't feel like it but there are people around there that they say they don't even know you come to them you know it's Shabbat today yeah what's Shabbat I'm one of them 15 years ago you would tell me it's Shabbat Shabbat what Shabbat Shabbat is another day I grew up the most secular Jew in the world and it wasn't done evil was I didn't know nobody told me so the point is that just the fact that you are aware of the situation that's already a big step and each and every one of us with our daytoday battles if I'm on the winning side and I'm constantly my mind is to overpower my weaknesses my little effort is completely affecting the entire CL Israel it doesn't matter what it is and we see from that a a fact that that's how I see it that the world events is a direct result of our our because you see now everywhere you look there's such a movement for Jews to wake up and to become more close to the more observant to do more CH learn more t much more than what it was 10 years ago it maybe look like it's not like that but the reality is and I see it all over the world I travel everywhere to speak I see this thirst and people want to become better Jews they want to become closer to to the and now you see with physical eyes that we that we're actually affecting it that it looks like theh is Shifting the world to a point that you know what we might even have the Redemption like that and nice and smooth and the fact that the Kosh chose that Donald Trump will win nothing is is is by mistake you know I found something very interesting and other people told me you know was laughing at me but I found that the day that if we get to that day because from two months from now to another two months you know a lot of things can still happen but the day that Trump is going to be inaugurated is January 20th the day that he's going to be inaugurated to be a president of the United States if we get to that day he's going to be 70 years old 7 months and seven days he was born on June 14 so he's going to be inaugurated to the president of the United States he's going to be the in the year 5777 and he's going to be 70 years 70 months and seven days I mean that's pretty amazing and a lot of people tell me ah no but nonsense Ah that's not nonsense nothing is by chance and more than that the gatria of Donald Trump is the same gatri of mashia David 424 I mean there's no coincidence I mean a lot of people tell why you think he's mashia Shalom he mashia but at least you see how things are very obvious it just goes to show you that there is an asici opportunity that mashiah will come when he's an anger when he's I mean has to be a king a physical King like of the Nations at that time the same story with turned everything turned around and he was suddenly our friend he helped raise money for the fundraising to to build the bet midash so every little thing that happens in our life there's nothing happens by chance there's no chances there's no coincidence people tell me Oh no you're making all these things up I'm not making anything up look at his the birth date you'll see the point is that we're standing in a very supicious time and this is now the time to realize hey wait a minute you know us as a nation we're actually moving things here we're actually doing things you know last two weeks ago was this big sh the world Shabbat project project I mean somebody told me that there was some room 6,000 women did a one room can you imagine in South Africa 6,000 women in one room doing a who had that in the in the in the in our history you you know a lot of people are talking about us about our nation okay so some are but look how much good look at all the good that's in our nation how much Jews are caring about each other how much is going on how much charity is going on so it's very it's always easy to point a finger and say to look at the at the bad but look at how much good is going on the point is is is to observe it and to incorporate it into my own life to understand wait a minute yeah I have my struggles I have my my my problems in my life and one has nothing to do with the other the problems in my life is only because to make me become better you know the it says in the Torah when they wanted to have olive oil to the Min they had to take the The Olive and they had to crush it and the first drop that came out that was the purest olive oil they used to crush it the first drop that came out that went for the Min and all the rest went for the salad and I'm joking some some people take me serious when I say the salad but no the first drop went to the Min and this represents us that K squeezes us why to get the best out of us so constantly we get squeezed it's not a punish people saying ohem is so mean he's punishing me I don't havea my kids are not listening to me it's not a punishment it's just AEM is putting us you know into high gear that's it so everything that happens in our life is just to get us better just to get us more active and the fact that we see things are revolving in front of our eyes just just for out the tool to say wait a minute this is all working out and to get better and to get stronger and to say okay now where am I getting better in my life life where am I adding more good deeds in my life where am I polishing my my and we all can always grow better and the point to take from that is that we're in such a special time we're such a lucky generation I mean in one way you can look at our generation say oh you know this is one of the worst Generations ever with all the Temptations and all the problems and going on but I I see it completely different we're the luckiest generation we're going to be the generation that sees the Redemption can you imagine that I mean it's it's hard to imagine it's hard to imagine that everything that we've been hearing for for thousands of years that you can see it with your eyes I mean just imagine standing in front of the sea when M open the sea can you imagine this this thing going on and we're going to see 10 times more than that it says I'm going to show you even more than that so the point is that we're in such a an auspicious time and we're we're in such a an important time and now the current events that are happening this is just an an analogy to show us that that hasem is actually accepting everything that we do and he loves what we're doing and he's appreciating every little Mitzvah that we do and the point is it RS the time that each and every one of us has to understand wait a minute I'm I'm here an MVP I'm a valuable player here I don't have to have a twoot long beard I don't have to be in SHO all day long but I have to in My Level just do one little Quest I did my part and the fact is that we have to do our part somebody once sent me a video that a bus turned over and it fell on a person and you see like dozens of people trying to lift up the bus and they can't lift up the bus and this was shot from a surveillance video and then you see one person running and he's the last one who's putting the last lift and they lift up the bus and they pull out the person and I was like look what a beautiful thing I mean not that the person was crushed but the fact that you see how 70 60 80 I don't know how many people were trying couldn't lift it one person just came and gave the last push and they were able to lift up the bus which means that each and every one of us is maybe that one that maybe my little push pushes our entire nation so the point is to have a lot of value of my self value and my Mitzvah is a big thing I just heard now over Shabbat a beautiful story that the head of the fire department of Israel he was went to some convention in Australia and he was he was you know he wanted to pray in a minan on Shabbat and he was in some little town somewhere in Australia and he couldn't find a minan Saturday morning he was determined he's like I'm going to find a minan I'm going to pray the Shabbat prayer with inan and he was walking around asking is there a synagogue here is there a synagogue here looked at him like what are you talking about and then he stopped and he remembered that his son once was traveling somewhere and his son told him you know everywhere that I went there was a aabad center and everywhere I went to you know there's a joke wherever you find Coca-Cola you can find kabad so he said to the kadh he closed his eyes and he said to the I want to pray inan I'm I'm asking you I'm not asking for something big I want to to pray with him inan and the secretary opens his eyes he sees a religious Jew that tells him are you Jewish tells him yes he says come we need you we're nine men we need the 10th person for Aman and he went and the the rabbi they told him it's a very new community and we barely get 10 men here we're nine men and and you're the 10th one and the what I liked about it is that you know sometimes a person seems that he's by himself that he's in the middle of nowhere that he's worthless but there are nine men waiting for him they can't do anything without him they're not I can't say shalom worthless but they cannot pray with one person missing doesn't matter who it is and just the fact that he's a Jew then he was counted in the minan the point for mate is that each and every one of us is a very important soul in our nation you know at Mat all the Jews were there if one person would say hold on for a second I got to go to the bathroom hold on for one minute the the whole show had to stop one person had to go to the bathroom everybody had to be there they could not do it if one person was missing and that's the reality is that even now we we we we're counting on everybody every individual has his his part and the point is to wake up in the morning and when you say not to only thank the K to gave me the the opportunity to come back here is right to say wait a minute I have a job now in the universe what what is my part it's my part now to help this person is my part now to help that individual is my part now to to I don't know to pray to say to do this Mitzvah the point is that is putting everybody in a in some type of a corner we're all pressed into a corner because wants us to pray today we had a class in the morning and a a young lady told me I can't find my other half she wasn't so young that was the sad part but she told me I can't find my other half what should I do I told wants you to pray he wants you to pray he likes your prayers so she says I'm not I said you are likes your prayer he wants you to pray so the point is that each and every one of us is pressed to a corner and each one is dealing with something why because the wants us to to to to wake up to wake up and and demand the G and to demand our Redemption and to to to move something that's why is putting pressure on everybody CU if everything would be good then who would move now when people start having a lot of pressure on them and each person his problems is bigger than everybody else's I mean I get about, 1500 emails every day that's an average day of an email and all the emails are just complain this is not working out I don't have I can't get pregnant my husband is this but I didn't get once an email telling me hi thank you I just wanted to report everything's okay everything is good and I wanted to say it out loud so I see from that that everybody's dealing with something some people are just dealing with with it in a much more positive way and some people don't want to deal with it and they see that like they feel that their life is caving on them the reality is the who is pressing press pressing everybody because when you under pressure that's when you start functioning better and wants us to scream he wants us to demand the Gan he doesn't want it just to bring it to us because we were because we deserve it and what we need to take from that is that each and every one of us has an important role in the world and the point is to realize what this point what this role and to and to pursue it and to do it and the most important thing is the who is expecting from us to be United because if we're not United then it says when there is a separation in the realm below then there's a separation in the real realm above and our major task is to to to make sure that we're all United doesn't matter on purpose the made us all different in different groups and different and even how you pronounce the words there's a reason for that unfortunately in our generation and probably in previous generation too everybody fights with each other I'm more right than you my Rabbi is more smarter than your Rabbi this is just the trying to make everybody fight the reality is theh on purpose created us all different in different types of groups so we can overpower and overcome this childish fight and say we're all we're all the same we're all serving the same God we're all learning the same Torah so you say oi and I say o doesn't matter so you dress like this I dress like that well the same so the the the the basics of it is just of being in in in unity and if each individual works on himself in his surrounding how he he gets you United with everybody that in itself already is a big step of of of the G and you kind of start seeing it in Still Still many places you don't see it like for example I live inat and I I I call it the city of the G why because all the shoes are completely mixed there's no one Sho I mean there is the the B Sho there's theab but everybody's mixed together there's no one group in one sh every Sho in the entrance has all the you choose whatever you no you go by and everybody together and it's beautiful you see on one side here's a here's a everybody together and that's what hasem is expecting from us that's that's what purpose has made everybody a little bit different and it's a that comes says oh look he's not doing what you're doing and you making all these they say in Hebrew just fighting with no reason the reality is in the eyes of hem we're all equal doesn't care if you have a white dress shirt a blue shirt it doesn't matter looks at us completely the same the point is that we have to actually get it into action and to to apply it to understand that we're all equal there's no difference between me and you you and me we're all the same we're all as good the same way in the eyes of if I learn 5 hours a day to and you learn three hours doesn't mean that my hours are better than your three hours and that's the problem where a lot of people fail because they think oh I'm so religious I'm better than you you're not better than me and I'm not better than you I serve AEM like this you serve hem like that as long as you serve hem with with your heart with all your heart then we're equal the point is to really apply it and to see each other the same way just now other the day a beautiful thing happened I have a a school for women inat for women who become B cha and we have a beautiful Center inat where a lot of women come especially from abroad to short visits for a week for 10 days and we have like a I call it a boot camp they come for seven days and morning toight they get injected with spirituality so we have a lot of events and seminars and shabbatons but since we have rooms in our building so you know we need to fund the organization so when rooms are free we rent them out so two couples came on Friday and weren't observing Jews and I happened to be everything was busy we had a big event going on I was the one standing there and I was okay I I'll accept them and I was like accepting them with open arms Hi how are you are you from and and they like looked at me like what this guys like giving us a time of day like they thought I'm going to like sh them off or like look at them they asked me where they can find a restaurant and I told them listen I don't go out Friday night I can't really give you advice but maybe if you go here you go there they were shocked that I'm like talking to them like there there like there's no difference and and somebody told me like what you went to like take the guest I told them you don't know what a Kem it was because they probably saw this guy with a long beard and a black suit that they were probably ready to get like oh you're driving on shabas you know that's probably what they were expecting to get and here I'm like talking to them and I'm asking them questions and they were completely shocked the person who told me what you went to accept them yeah you can't even imagine what the I just was able to do because in my eyes I don't see them different than me so you know and that's this is the problem of many people in our generation that they people you know they do two more than you I think they're they're that that they're much better than you and it's very sad to see that because you know somebody once asked me what is the best Mitzvah to do or on the other hand what is the worst AA to do and I said there's no such a thing because you know the weight the volume of a Mitzvah is completely different between everyone I mean my volume let's call it of when I put F in is completely different than another Je putting F in because maybe for me it's the easiest thing in the world to put fing on and I just put it like that at 5: in the morning and for another person it's a struggle so when he puts F in it's like me putting a thousand times F in cuz for me it's easy for him it's a struggle so there's no weight one can say oh my Mitzvah is better than your Mitzvah because you know it depends on how much Toil and how much effort how much hard it was for me to do the Mitzvah so it doesn't mean that if I look like this and I'm better than another person doesn't mean anything I don't know where that person is the m tells us don't judge another person you don't know who where he's where he's standing where he went through point to take from that and this is one of the hardest things and this is the biggest n of our generation is to tolerate another person that you don't know or that you don't like because his opinions are a little bit different than yours and hasem created it on purpose that we have different opinions it says the same way that their faces are different their opinions are different created on purpose to see if I can tolerate another person that is completely different for me that thinks a little bit different has a different opinion in politics a different hasf and most people they don't they they fail the test because they don't like another person person cuz he's dressed different or cuz he says something different the important part of it is to see that we are so close to the end and it's very obvious what the Kos wants from us forless to say that he wants us to be much stronger in ourem but he's on purpose putting us in all these situations because if we were able to do a campaign and I still don't understand why they didn't do such a campaign thank now all the greatest rabbis of all the communities and all the yeshivas and all the the cities put them all together in one room let's say we find a thousand of them and let's do a campaign now we're making a day or a week of unity and we're all going to come to each one to our congregation and we're going to make the campaign we're making a whole week of unconditional is we're all going to switch synagogues we're going spread them around you go to that synagogue he goes to this synagogue for a whole week we making a campaign of is M will be here in 3 seconds the point is that we weren weren't able to do that because if you put all these RS in one room they're going to start arguing I'm the chairman no no no no I'm the chairman no no no no we're going to D no no no no we're not so that's the that's our problem but technically if you would put all these spiritual leaders in one room and they will make say okay let's let's get it done technically it couldn't be done in a second we would have mashiah because our problem is and I'm not directing it at anyone when I'm saying our I'm saying our as a nation I'm notom pointing a finger in anyone but the problem that we have in our generation and many other Generations that we unfortunately have a lot of that we don't like another Jew for no reason and and and you know we know that the second temple was destroyed from C the first temple was destroyed from idol worship Bloodshed and and and idol worship forbidden relations and bloodshed since the sin was revealed and the length of the Exile was revealed when they left they knew they're going out for 70 years they knew the prophet told them you're coming back in 70 years the second way the mikdash was destroyed because of now since the sin is not revealed then the length of the Exile is not revealed and and this is our major problem yes we have our problems that we need to overpower but our major problem as a nation is this that I hate another person for no reason because it's a little bit different than me or he's behaving a little bit different he's not pronouncing the words like I pronounce how I pronounce the word and this is exactly the the test of Our Generation that we have to have complete acceptance of any other Jew doesn't matter who he is who's affiliate with it how observant he is if he is observant non observant has nothing to do with it and you see that we're getting better and better in that you see that the tolerance between Jews is getting much much better so what we need to take from that since we are standing in such an supicious time and in such a a a important time in in our nation is that each and everyone has to see what's going on analyze it the right way and say wait a minute first of all I'm a very very important player in this situation my mitv count and my victory over my it counts and me tolerating my number even though I really don't feel like it right now it counts it all counts a for my own personal gain then when I started the lection I told you that hasm is being so nice to us that he's giving us another day and another day and another day just for my own good grab another Mitzvah another good deed but if you're looking it in a very Global way I'm I'm I have an effect here and we see the the I see it at least that the fact that Trump won this is an open miracle that K can transform everything and again it's not my personal opin my political opinion I don't vote for him I didn't vote for anyone that's not the point the point is that the current events you see how they move you see that the Kosh can control everything and can in one shot change the entire reality and and it can bring hasem can bring the Redemption however he wants he can put whoever he wants in whatever government and do whatever action he wants but it all depends on us because the same way that we control everything in this universe I mean we see it from many different things you know there's a big question in the mid that the Angels used to ask when are we celebrating when we celebrate so the answer was whenever the B of the of the seden will decide that that's when we're going to celebrate so our actions down here are actually what's you know moving everything from above there's knows that there's something above you an eye is looking at you and ear is listening to you all your deeds and actions are right written in a book but there's another way to read the sentence the balat says don't read the sentence like that says he says read it know that's what's above is from you whatever you do here affects the heavens so we have a very very important role here so our decisions and our way of life affects the decisions from above so what we should take from tonight is is what what am I doing to actually bring it into action to listen is nice and to get you know to nod your head is very good but the point is is how you leaving the door is saying okay what am I actually bringing into action and that's the point I mean when I go to classes when I drove now three and a half hours and I still have a drive back toat it's not because I enjoy it because the point is to get a person to to make an action and if I don't do an action then I kind of wasted my time if I went to a lecture or to a class or to any Gathering and I I enjoyed I nodded all the time I all the all night lot lectures I go everybody's nodding but okay it's very nice that you're nodding I mean it wouldn't be so respectful if you go like that but the point is how am I leaving the door when I go to a class or a meeting or something my my thought is okay what how is it affecting me how did this little gathering affect me now when a bunch of Jews get together the power is is is we can't understand the power it says the B said that when a group of Jews get together and they make a decision they're more powerful than what M can do so when Jews get together doesn't matter in what form it is a lecture a Class A kumit it doesn't matter is that it's an auspicious time for a group of Jews to say okay I'm making a decision a change I mean I was holding up until today here tomorrow I want to be here and because I'm going to be here it's going to affect me it's going to affect my family it's going to affect my community and eventually it's going to affect is and the entire world so the point to take from that is to to to digest the information and go out with a little change in my mind if it's in my okay I'm I'm holding here so tomorrow I'm going to add I don't pray three times a day so tomorrow I'll start praying three times a day talking about for the men of course I don't pray I'll pray with them I don't put I'll put tomor in I lie all day long so tomorrow I'm going to zip it so each person does their own their own calculation where they're holding and what they can do and know that the little thing that you do is is massive massive in the eyes of theh you know how the Armstrong said one small step to to man a big step to mankind I don't know the exact quote but that's the reality I mean I don't know if he stole the quote from somebody but the reality is that yeah one small step that you do is massive massive in the world above a nice way to to to see the analysis here is that if you now take a stick in a very sunny day how they used to make in the olden days the the sand the the Sun sunclock how do you call it in English Su dial so you'll put the stick and the sun will hit the stick so you'll see the shadow on the ground you know how many miles the sun has to move in order for this Shadow to move 1 mm here on the ground about 400 million miles for the sun to move in order for it to move one angle the angle that the sun will hit a different angle and on the ground the shadow will move 1 mimer so that's how much work needs to be done in this world to move something in above so so massive so one little thought in my mind all day long I have junk going on in my mind one time I shut down my my thought and moved a bad thought or one little act that I did it might look like a millimeter in this world but in the spiritual realm in the world above it's millions and millions of miles and that's how it is I mean Hashem created this beautiful nature not for us to to to ignore it is to to look at the entire Cosmic structure and understand what am I and what is above me and how my actions affect the world so one little act one little thing that I do it might seem in my mind I mean so many times you you about to do something and tells you oh come on why are you pretending not too long ago I was in a lecture and this young man tells me listen you know you keep telling me Shabbat Shabbat I'm not even observant I don't even do anything what's the point why are you telling me to do K because I keept telling them you know I mean when I became religious for 3 years I didn't really keep Shabbat but I did k and I he still did all sorts of little things and and this young man told me why are you telling me even to do something I don't really obser I'm not observing the Shabbat I said what does one have to do with the other so they can't observe 100% then do 2% what's the connection when I became observing I couldn't become sh Shabbat right away so I always tell in my my personal story how I used to I used to be a very heavy smoker so somebody told me you're not allowed to extinguish fire on Shabbat so don't turn out your cigarette and if you smoke 60 cigarettes a day so you have 60 less sins now when he told me that I thought he's completely clonic but then when I started to keep sh I was like hey you know what I can't turn the lights on and off on shamat so I used to unscrew the light bulb in the fridge so 50 times I open and close the fridge so I have 50 less I'm damage control I'm minimizing it so this individual told me why are you telling me I I I I I don't even observe Shabbat I told him it's okay I used to do Kush and I used to eat that Shabbat and go out to watch a movie so but for the moment that I did the Mitzvah I was observing Shabbat and Shabbat is counted according to Al every second is is You observe Shabbat I mean there's a question in Al if a person on Yip one second somehow he fell on the ground and happened to be that his mouth opened up and a crumb fell into his mouth and oh by mistake he swallowed the the crumb so he broke the fast should he continue the fast or should he stop of course he has to continue cuz only for one second he broke the fast and then he has to continue and the and you learn from that for Shabbat so if a person did Shabbat for one second so one second he stopped and then he has to continue my wife's best friend used to come to us to shabbat all the time we try to really like car her and one morning she she spend Shabbat with us and one morning when I wake up I see her packing her bags and she is leaving and I tell her where are you going and she told me no I I I somebody sent me a text and I checked it so I already you know I already broke shabat so I'm going home she said no no no don't don't go home you you just did it for for 3 seconds that's it now continue don't stop now so the point is that that young man when I told him to K shab to something and he's like but I'm another observant what is my little Mitzvah worth I told me it's worth a lot because is is focusing right now on what you're doing not on what you don't do is focusing always on what you do so the the the the to take from that is that it's it's everything that we do is not what I don't do if I'm going to go through a whole list what I don't do I'm not going to go so far with that but the point is to see okay I'm I am doing a lot so what I'm doing is worth a lot and if I'm holding here today then tomorrow I'll step it out one one step a little bit more and a little bit more and again if I'm looking at it in a very personal level then I'm affecting myself I'm making myself a better person by default I'm affecting my family and my loved ones and it starts Rippling into my community into my town and into my nation so really what you want to take from tonight is how am I changing my life tonight not in 3 weeks when it's easier when when I have less stress now let me finish a few projects then I'll start the point is how am I changing every day and that's why I started the lecture by saying that we there's nothing changeed between us and the generation in Egypt because it's they weren't in necessarily yeah the story was they were in Egypt but they were in a state of limitation and our sages say every generation a person needs to see himself like as if he went out of Egypt so again comes batan and says not every day a person needs to see that I have to be leave my limitation that I was in yesterday and today being a higher level that what I wasn't able to do yesterday today I have to achieve And if every day I live my life that I go out of my state of limitation then that's how I bring on myself the the the physical Redemption with the the acts of each and every one of us we see I could I could easily say a month ago it wasn't like that now I can actually say I believe that K gave us send us a a an approval you're doing good do continue you have the option of of changing the the world's fate so it's in our hands and we're extremely powerful nation that my thoughts and my actions and my speech and every little thing that I do is is is is huge in the spiritual world you can take from tonight a little bit of of a a a boost that tomorrow tonight already and tomorrow and the next day you constantly going up one step and another step and another step and this will hasten the Redemption this will bring the Redemption much much faster and only faster also smoother and nicer and we should marry to see it with our own eyes to see the coming of the G to see the coming of the BET mikdash and rejoining and rejoicing all together it should happen very soon Speedy in our days and this is all depends on us and now it's time to to work so I wish you great success thank you for your time thank you for the host for hosting us and to uh all the people who organized this beautiful event and the names that we mentioned should have even whoever we didn't mention just have have them in your mind that should have whoever needsa should have from the kids
