MBD Shiur Live!

everyone. So the first we have said and now we're going to become a sibula. What's a sigula? There many different interpretations. A sibula is a is an amulet. An amulet something that we don't understand how it works but works like a sele on on top and one on the bottom. No matter how you turn it, what'sever means because had a bunch of bunch of new ones. against details of the did after they came out of mon they was complained there's no food slo they wanted bos shabas m there's no water told mo to take the stick and hit hit the wanted to give us a which is pure and clean. It's the foundation of the kadush of and the cleanliness the purity of it's the source of the of allness. So, Hashem commanded us first of all even from the slightest. We know the famous inad somebody who is a very woman on the condition says I'm the condition should be he says to the woman I'm au condition and the says Yeah, said that the morah says in kadush that kush is why maybe at that moment he had a so that means now he's a sad guy but the kdush is a good kadush we we we assume So that's why should be pure because that's foundation of forever and ever. ious sagula is something that doesn't work according to nature went to the sali they gave you a bottle of water bottle of water and the person became healed how does how does that work it's not it's not good with nature it's not a medication says we find talks about all kinds of different grasses not the ones people smoke talking about people kind dresses. It heals. When you take that grass, it heals somebody who has naturally very cold. It warms them up. It's the other way around. Has nothing to do with nature. There certain Hashem guarantees. At that point she used will be a sigula even if it's not according to nature way beyond our expectations. There are many different branches in this guarantee that Hashem gave us wanted to do a mitzvah. He was about to do a mitzvah and somebody came up. He couldn't do the mitzvah. Hem considers it as if he did the mitzvah because he wanted to do the mitzvah. But if he had in mind to do a he didn't do it's not considered like he did a so we have to understand why a go that want to do mitzvah is not considered a mitzvah. You want to do what's going on? Doesn't make any sense. If does something. So if he thinks doing a bad thing, he's saying that the thought is is concrete. It's a so he had a bad thought. It's the same thing. But only if a good thought works but a bad thought doesn't work. So the same thing should be about says if a learns keep shabas like the has to work it has to be busy >> I don't want to Say that any mitzvah has no sh with the mitzvah that commanded us. If the action that he's doing is a good action, anybody that does it, if it's a good thing, so he did something good. That's what the says you are. You're different. A good deed, a good thought is only counted when it has that comes out of the good things that come out of the actions of the only belongs to I will explain to you that everything that we see in how to say do don't do knows the quality of the things that he created. He told us to stay away from anything that is evil, anything that's bad and he tested all the good things and he he holded over the good things called and he told him prepare some good food that I What is that? What's the say? What does that mean? The commandments that Hashem told us to do. Oh, says, "Go tell the giving you it's a healing. It's a medication. It's a source of life." Why do they say two things? It's and it's life. If you're going to do the mitzvah, you're not going to become sick. The good life, the source of life is when you'll do the midst of the commandments of Hashem. That's the source of life will give you life. tim you'll find when commanded us the things we should not do says the sh means you shouldn't disgust your nephing by doing these a you become it's a it's it's despicable comes to teach us everything that everything that Hashem gave us and he he put thought into it. It's to protect us. He commanded us to be holy. That's why he gave us these mitzvah, the dos and the don'ts. says in the many why does why does Hashem point out I'm the one who took took you out of created us he created everyone isn't that greater took us out of was one detail But he created us. Every single one of us. Everything that a person encounters in life, everything that he does in life when he still have the things that he has a choice to do. So we think that we have a choice and we can choose. even the choices that we have is so there's the famous we'll talk about some other so the fact that a person is born and a person is alive that's everybody knows it's a given everybody knows that that's nobody could do that has to know. Everything in the world, everything in this whole existence, every single second Shabas he says that Hashem created the world for for six days only for one week came Shabasem oh Shabas let's have another week and that goes on since constantly because of Shabas because we are shabas says okay we get another week another week but the the masperation is every single second the bria clearly brought all the individual and the fact that Hashem was of us and he gave us an opportunity to be close to him. Gave us an opportunity to be able to speak to him every day. He has opportunity to learn his which is himself because the fact that Hashem was able to do all the all the and all the the great things he did by taking us out of and bringing us closer to him we became his nation that is the fourth page says says here says give Hashem what's his because you and everything you possess is his what you think is it's yours. We have the ability to do to choose. A person has the ability to choose good or bad. choosing but he adds to it we can't really comprehend the the shot that if you have a choice so what does it mean that I reach knows what you're going to choose anyway so what's the choice so Balatana has interesting insight in this thing we know that is he's unlimited infinite can we say that is limited. You're not right because we say that you're living limiting the but if you say that he cannot be limited then you're limiting him. Boom. Forget you got what I said. If you're saying if you're saying that the cannot be limited so you're limiting him. So the can be limited and he's also built by he's unlimited. So the fact that the aishar >> that's the definition of infinity infinity >> that's infinity rather it has any everything. So the fact that the aish is unlimited and he gave us he gave us an ability to choose yet he also knows what we're going to choose. Works both ways that the fact that he he can he can be in a state where he doesn't want to know what you're going to choose. It gives us an ability to choose. He's like, he doesn't want to know what we're going to choose. >> Yeah. But that's that's what he says that of course. >> But reality is also what's what is reality? Are we really here? Are you really here? >> We're not because if we say that the is there's nothing but the right. So everything everything in the entire is the there's nothing but the [snorts] but he has the ability to give us a chance to live in this world and still choose. He created the light >> of that's the talks about the fact that Hashem gives us an ability to do a verdy with his energy. He can pull the plug on us in a second. Want to do our you're done. It's like this there's a the Novi of him wanted to uh wanted to strike the coin the cob he lifted his arm and and couldn't move he got paralyzed on the spot has the ability to pull the plug yet he lets us because he because of his mid to he's so so kind he lets us even sin against him with his not only that he says he doesn't emerge Because when a person says, you create a mash, you create a bad spirit, a bad and that bad that evil spirit is there to attack you. How does he exist? Hem gives us give to exist. But Hashem should say to the the mash is what do you want from me? The guy who created you. Go to him. Take his life. Whatever you want. Yet says laws of the children. So how can a person pride himself? I dwell today. I did a good mitzvah. It's not you. It's him. Everything that we do is his everything that every every good thing that we do is the So how can a person ever pride himself in what he does? Says everything is from you from your own hand was given to you. What is it? What does that mean? is ability last line is like wow even the good will that a person has he has an open hand he's a giving person you know there's certain types of people the people who were born like this and the people are born like this with open hand they're always giving so don't think don't pat yourself on the back ah I have the mid of giving neighbor should give to The open hand that I have and I'm constantly giving to people that also gives us from his hand he gave it to us. Now my hand is closed hand. >> But we have a choice. >> We have a choice. So in reality when you get stopped it's not for the mighty you're doing it's for the choice. >> Yeah. It's as if Another one. Come shabas. You should feel everything everything that I need to do. Everything that I needed to do beforehand is done. Everything is prepared. Shabas when it comes to shabas a person says oh shabas it can be in the middle of anything like the says like the says that certain certain things that hashem created he never finished it for why he couldn't finish it in time could of course he could finish it the shade and other things yeah could finish it in time he wanted to show us that no matter what you're doing Even themselves doing something chabas that's what the says that shabas is shabas even when it comes to shabas shabas even a person has no sh with anything but he knows the shabas the biggest shabasem gave us Day of rest. What does it mean? All the avoided that a person has to do during the week. You only do it in the six days. Even the rest of Shabas. We spoke about this several weeks ago that a shabas it's called brought down in that shabas is alias all the go up there basically four and we're on the bottom of the on the bottom of all the shabases everything moves up one step Friday night but the stays on the bottom that's why in shabas if a person who is somewhat connected to shabas Shabas you feel totally different. You d differently you learn differently is totally different. Even the food has better six days we have to labor and work. If we would have labored the six days to avoid it properly but we see that some people come Shabas they don't feel any difference whatsoever why if he's saying we just said that stays at the bottom. So why how come some people don't feel anything if he didn't he didn't labor during the week to prepare for shabas? So of course he can't feel shabas. If you prepared good food for shabas you have what to eat. You didn't prepare food eat sardines or tuna fish. By the way, Remu freed once told me he got stuck in the luary on the Arab Shabas by his man. He ate bananas and tuna fish. That's all he had. Yeah, two bananas was like a he was but he came but a person who didn't prepare the six days he didn't he didn't didn't learn and he feels oh where am I through the fact that they feel bad. So now in Shabas they feel bad the whole week they didn't prepare properly and now they feel the burden and they wanted the cha says that in one second one moment he gets to the highest level that's when a person does and through that longing to shabas he wants to connect to Shabas The fact that a person connects to Shabas even on Shabas itself even he didn't prepare it also makes up for all the he didn't do during the week prep preparation for Shabas is the more persons connected to and when we're talking about connection doesn't mean the person comes to the says that we have to thank the head bows down automatically it's like automatic pilots that's not we're talking about we're not talking about a person who the d blah blah blah blah blah and he comes to oh where am I what just happened like the famous story of the reb who is finished say where you coming from where did you just arrive from we know such people happens to all of us. this famous story about um somebody once came to and and said what should I do if I uh I come to maid and I suddenly realized that I was I was spaced out and now I'm I'm a mim what should I do so I say to a was there was a girl standing in the marketplace selling apples and suddenly she was in Russia everybody's going to open grabbed an apple. So something she started crying. Somebody says why you crying? Grab as many apples as you can and say what you can. Says up to mid start from don't waste it. Time it >> huh >> 911. Yeah. explosions. And now if you can listen to my my voice, listen to my mitzvah. Same content we have before is hinting to all those who want to become close. Don't give up. Don't fear coming close to the going to say person thinks himself I did so many I'm going to go for I'm going to come down do mitzvah I'm going to come close to him don't think that way right now right now the is whatever I did until now delete delete from now on we start a new page from this Second with his great wants to bring us closer to him. He wants us to do doesn't want to remember our sins. He wants to only do good for us. Just like a person keeps the constantly coming down in this world constantly pours down goodness to this world. But if we mess up, you're cutting off cutting off the dash. This next piece is very very potent, very important. This week's we have is what is what's this? What what does the mitzvah entail? What does Hashem want from us of this mitzvah? The root of this mitzvah is it's proper for every person to recognize and should reward every person who did you a favor. Remember to reciprocate. Don't be don't be the opposite because not to appreciate and not to reciprocate a person has done you a favor is mo it's disgusting forem and for people a person should take the heart his father and mother if not for my father and mother I wouldn't be He has to give them the biggest respect and everything in any way that he can help them. He has to do that as reciprocation. They brought them to this world. Imagine, think back. They changed my diapers. They bathed me. They clothed me from when I was adornished. They they they they started every little smile. They got excited. I started walking. I fell. They picked me up. Pick me up. Pick me up. Pick me up. They took me to They took me in the snow. They picked me up in the rain. >> What's that? When a person, when a person ingrains that in his system, in his being, the result will be recognized with him from from when he was born. Because the is the cause and the reason for his parents and his grandparents all the way up to he was nine months in his mother's womb nourished him made him grow finally got him out of this world and he gave him all his needs his entire life our Hands work, our eyes work, our ears work. The whole system works. The heart, the kidneys, the liver, the everything works. He gave us he gave us a brain. If not for the fact that gives us the which understands and comprehends and is intelligent be like a horse like a and evaluate how much do we have that from that we learn to appreciate what Hashem has done for each and every one of us our entire lifetime. One of my favorite we should remember to holy to make it holy. Hashem has given us Shabases once in seven days. Shabas. Every Shabas it arouses, it awakens in us a closeness. We had to labor everybody and he know his own we didn't have time to learn. We didn't learn enough no matter how much we learn. That's why in the day of rest we have one day. That's why the six on the seventh day automatically we get a to connect to the we call Shabas that brings in several places that the we have every Shabas is not the same one as last week every Shabas we get a new that's the that's what Hashem wants the main thing that he wants from usem wants just like he gives us he also wants that we should have a a great arousal And a great to come closer to says in as soon as a person does the action of getting wanting to get closer to wants from us our heart. He wants our the hearts as says the that a person has brings us the great is talking about not talking about we think about talking about from his generation they have they have a longing they want to feel We see that when a person gets the first they get close to they're close to the beginning the person has to be the it's fire. So the sadiki Magdo of his generation said they are longing to get to that the young people have when they connect the first connection is so powerful. It's so like I remember when I when I met my Reb it was like I I I'm longing to get back to that time everything that's new everything person every time person comes to something new even in it's also the first time is like people people want to get back to their first high if you know what I'm talking and then you get to feel the sweetness in the depth of the heart. That's why gave us the shabas every single what's a how long is a seven days after that's not a anymore. So that's why is called because we get a new every single week. We have to say like we say in those are the shabas doesn't say the old from last week say it's not the same of last week you can't call it the same one as last Come upon him. Who controls me? Says, "Who controls me?" That controls me. Every has the mid of royalty, kingdom. What does that mean? He has the ability. Every has the to turn over a decree, a bad decree to good. You have the coil of because you have the you have the ability to control even that made on which level do you have the thr over? What's but to turn over a good thing that a good decree that Hashem has given to you you don't have the ability you don't have the to turn over a good only a bad only to turn over a bad thing to Are we still good time? >> 1:25. >> 10:25. Okay. Ah, your father-in-law is coming to you. He went towards him. Brought him into his tent. Says godless. Imagine the cover. the the comer he was a he was a uh priest somebody said this week that was learning kids said who was the priest So a kid turned around to rebre what are you talking about? Priests don't get married. >> So the reb have kids how can be his father-in-law. So the reb thinking so he said this is before [laughter] Yeah. The preparation that every has to have every single day before before learning to person to feel himself I am completely empty I'm calling how's a person if you're humble and you have a cle you can be but throughout this moment no matter how much I know I'm saying in the morning I'm every every day he said teach me your toilet teach me says And then after the first day he didn't say anything first day was just relaxing means he came they first day they came empty when he coming to learn you have to be humble is to foreign. He said the person who will you'll find the my goblet the goblet of the king in his in his peckle he'll become a slave but not the others that's said what's a you have a somebody's pouring into it pouring a coffee wine whatever it is has to be on the bottom if you put if these guys pouring here and you put it up on top, it's not going to happen. So you have to be humble. So if you hold it on top and then can't be if you on such a level that you're coming every morning and say teach me I know nothing humble then he can become with you coming you want to learn from him same thing have to be humble If you want to be and you come humble, you can be stood underneath the mountain. They were humble. They were on the lowest level of the highest level of He came before mountain. He came to learn. He didn't wasn't looking for when he said to come out in my schools or in the schools of your children. He came humble. He came to learn. He knew the was surrounded by and a stranger could not come in there. He knew he's not. He knew there's not going to be a come out to me, teach me some and then I can come in because he was such honor and he came humble. He came to learn came over to him. Hello recovered godless.
