Project Inspire Convention 2022 “BR” The Challenges of the Human Mind

hi everyone bill shoes yeah people how did someone say you know me a million years ago i always tell people also like it's my own life so it's like it's more than a million years it's a big squish for me um when i send yasi the name of the class i wrote for him br and it was a little bit surprising for me that yossi himself didn't know br and i'm going to explain in a second what's br okay but the main the main thing they left out is that it's i called it one was my one of my father's way of thinking and way of teaching so this is what uh what i want to share with you i think you know after we have a lot of inspiration we have a lot of inspiration here in project inspire and it's beautiful i think what was special with my father is not just inspiration but also taking things down to ground like what do we do with it like how do we take it into our lives like what what does it actually happen so as as i said first of all it's my father's material i mean everything i know is my father so it's like um but the let's start off with the concept i mean everybody knows why my father started a chateau right okay so i said very quickly my father was a young child growing up low east side manhattan nice jewish boy very religious home you know people think people ask me if my father himself was a balchuva you know because a lot of times it looks like you know you come from about your background and you see so you open an organization like many of the organizations they exist my father grew up in a very strong family very strong family if if you know a little bit more my my father's brother was rabbi jacob weinberg of nerissa brothers and sisters my father's sister father pinkles the mother of simpson pinkus he grew up in a heavy heavy loaded religious family you know it's not but he said that in the summers when he was already an orphan so instead of going out to camp when he was a little bit older instead of going up to camp or to go up to the mountains he went out to work he went out to work and he met a lot of jewish people who travel i think he said even he got to taxes like he would try to do business make some money and he said that wherever he went it was always i remember when he would speak about it his eyes would lit up he said he met a lot of jewish people and he saw that people are so proud about being jewish okay talking 19 i believe 50s early 50s he said he met a lot of jewish people they were so proud about being jewish and but there wasn't there wasn't religious there was jewish there wasn't religious but it was very proud and he would ask them this question he says like what makes you so proud about being jewish and they realized that people had no answer for that yes they loved judaism yes they wanted the kids to marry jewish yes they wanted it to continue but they didn't know enough about it and what he saw that time is like you know one generation down two generations down we're going to lose these people we're literally going to lose these people and unfortunately that's that's what's happening now that's what's happening now if when my father says this story when he went through the story i think the intermarriage was between five to seven percent i think that's what he said today what are we holding between 50 to 70 percent our own brothers and sisters are getting lost they're getting lost and it's it's not because they hate it it's not because they they just don't know they just don't know anyway so as you know my father dedicated his life for this to give more and more opportunities to people to stay jewish to marry jewish and for sure to get closer and closer to hashem so the process is that when he sees this big big problem and he tries to make a difference how do you make a difference like you know it's like sometimes when you see such a big problem you even it's like what could i do what can i really do i mean the more the problem is bigger is the less of you you don't have the car it's like what where where do we start of such a big problem and i i be fair my father i call it the chain of responsibility you know the chain of life like little animals eats big animals like how it works so i call it the chain of responsibility you see a problem you go to the rabbi of the show the rabbi of the show goes to the rabbi of the community like you know everyone tries to push it off and that's how my father tried he went to zoroshashivas he tried to he tried people to take responsibility but no one really didn't take it he said there was a one way the jewish people was a one way it was a one way out of judaism nobody wouldn't come back nobody wouldn't connect he traveled towards israel he went to the khazanes two days before he came three days before he came the khazanesh passed away he basically realized that if he's not going to try then no like he said i have to quote they said that his father always used to tell him his father was very very strong about pilkey avez you know he used to teach the family bill cavez and he said he remembered his father all the time telling him you know if there's no one doing the job you have to at least try so here my father starts his journey doesn't start it with hitara but he starts you know of different organizations he tries this way and that's we try to figure out what do we do how do we really connect people and i could say you know the the system as they believed very much in leadership and that was his idea he learned it from savashnira he learned it from the terror so that's in the technical side but in the thinking process it was clear for him that we have to get people to start thinking we have to get people to start thinking like we think that we're thinking but we're not really thinking our lives is like some kind of a machine you know it's processed this process that once the food gets to our mouth you know we drink we don't you know choke on it we have we have a lot we're doing but it's not really thinking and is all life was dedicated to this thing how do we cause people to think because his way going back to this question what gave the jewish people this sense of being proud about being jewish what what was it and fema was very clear like he would he would do this question in a different way would tell students he would tell them like secular students would ask them this question and you have to think about it he says for 2000 years we survived an exile 2000 years we survived an exile and it's i don't know if it's the right comparison but did you ever go to a country they have no idea someone was in france like they don't speak english they don't speak nothing it's like you feel like like you feel like deaf almost right it's like we don't know what's exile but just imagine going to a place you have no no connection no language no nothing you're like from zero the jewish people were spread around the world and still they kept up for 2000 years we kept up we stayed together what gave the jewish people the power and it's a it's a good question to think for ourselves because it's a you know if if the way that you would look on it is that if we understand what gave them the power we could learn it for ourselves and also teach it to our children and he said it in two words the jewish people will always have the thing that's called toratrim is wisdom for life he says when someone has wisdom for life nobody can go against him he doesn't blink he's not afraid wherever he goes he knows who he is i always tell this example anybody learned in what was in harvard university okay so i can make fun of them okay so i say do you ever meet someone from harvard he's like i'm from harvard man it's like i say they don't step on the floor it's like you know they always they're so proud about being you know from harvard now what's so special there i mean there's so many tests there's so many like it's hard to get in it's expensive what's so special about it the way that i look on it is they they understand that they have the opening for wisdom that's in their eyes of course almost endless like you know it's like the best university in the world and this is how my father would say this is us the jewish people we knew that we have the best wisdom in the world we have the best wisdom in the world we got up in the morning we knew if someone knew my father's language so i'm using it what the heck are we doing in this world okay we knew every moment what's our purpose what are we trying to do we knew we know it's happiness we know it's love all of this the jewish people knew it so it doesn't matter where you are if you know who you are doesn't matter where you are and my father basically what he tried is to take this and to try also for ourselves and also for secular people that was his way to connect people to show them the wisdom of life to show them the wisdom of torah and here comes in the word vr okay my wife is a graphic artist so she she has a lot of these you know there's the commercials that they do one word and then the next day so i told you specifically don't write what is it maybe people will come just a year towards vr so my father would use br he took it from the words from the letters cpr by the way i'm an israeli born in israel raised in israel so i hope my english is not so bad but this is one of the words i will never i don't think i would ever say managed to say what's cpr you know the words for cpr okay it's a resuscitation i know okay so what are we doing in cpr we resuscitate the main you know the important sides of the person they should stay alive and turn a in turn there's more help so my father would call it br what's br it's called brain resuscitation okay he said our job for ourselves our job for teaching is to do brain resuscitation and again we think that our brain is working here i'm alive everything is working good it's true but most of our brain is sleeping a near channel like we could be alive we could be awake but our brain is sleeping he puts in he doesn't want to work too hard and the challenge this is what it would always teach us the challenge of human beings is to try to resuscitate their brains and not just for ourselves this is what you would try this is if if someone knows my father's teaching this is what you would try to do for other people you know i'll give you more idea more examples of it but that was the concept the concept is to try to get our brains working how many people know buffuftsick okay so let me let me tell you so one of one of the nice stories of my father is that this guy comes into my father and he wants to speak to a rabbi and my father sees that he's he's disturbed you know my father asks him what's going on what's going on and he tells my father he says look i grew up nothing about judaism hardly knew that we jewish nothing but he said one thing i heard that always pulled my attention he says i heard the holy land the holy land he said for years i was dreaming about the holy land i have to check out the holy land it says from age 13 14 i'm dreaming about the holy land i decided one day i'll be big i'll go i'll go to the holy land i want to i want to taste it i want to see what's going on there when it says i saved money he has an old plan saved money enough of three weeks he wants to check out the holy land he comes to israel and he rents a car quits his job comes to israel you know for three weeks he can't just come for a trip and he rents a car and he has a mission he's going to see the holy land so he takes a map and he starts looking in a map you guys remember what's a map right one time once upon a time was the map so if you if you remember that thing on the map would be um like wherever there's a at least in israel i don't know how it works in america but wherever there is like a synagogue so it would be like wherever there's something holy there is like a symbol of of the holy of the place like let's say the three main the the church and the in the muslims and the jews it would be like a mark on the so he says i took the map he's telling my father and i started from up north i went through every place there was something holy doesn't matter what it is i came in i looked including the temple mount including everything i went three weeks i'm driving israel from back and forth and he tells my father i didn't see anything holy in israel and he's frustrated it's like you guys made up the story to try to bring tourists like what's a story like i didn't see nothing holy in this place and he's hurt about it because he really had a plan so my father asks him he says you know that's amazing he already told me such beautiful information you traveled israel for three weeks i mean you know what's israel it's one hour drive is it well not one hour but three weeks he finished israel tap the bottom say thousand if you already was in israel for so long you probably wasn't so many places tell me my father asks him did you ever see a buffoofsick did you ever see him after anyone was in israel here yes yes did you ever see a buffoozic it's a yes or no no you sure you didn't see what it is so this guy tells my father what's up buffer he says i didn't ask you just yes or no he says rabbi i have no idea what's up sick how would i know if i saw him or not he says oh you got a good point quite a good point what's holiness do you know it's holiness you're looking for holiness but what is it of course come and learn with us what's holiness and then you could look for it maybe it's right next to you maybe it's on top of you maybe you could learn about it and you could see it this is what's called brain resuscitation because he could tell him oh you didn't look in the right places come he wanted him to think about himself okay when you think about yourself it's much more powerful you cause your brain to think if you just take your brain to someone else and you say okay load me with this information then came in didn't come out like you never know when you do the process it's so powerful and i think that this is like the beauty of my father's torah my father didn't come to impress no one my father wasn't so funny like i don't know how he would compete with these guys today i don't know try to update him you know some jokes if he comes back but he he really was i mean the biggest gift i got that you know i always tell people i i grew up as ffb right everybody knows what's ffb right and from from birth the biggest gift i got of my father is one word think okay think don't take it for granted like think about it try to understand it on your own don't make it something that you just accepted but this was this is what he would teach and what i'm going to try is to show you a little bit through different times in in our torah where this is a challenge for us and it's always going to stay a challenge for us but the more we know the more we're aware of it we could at least use it much better and one more thing is this is one of my father's concepts is five finger clarity okay what's five finger clarity so my father would ask people how many fingers do you have five are you sure about it everybody is sure about it okay but you would say how do you know that you have five fingers what's our first reaction how do we know that we have five fingers one two three four five like come on like what's the question okay so you would say okay close your eyes they still have five fingers so how do you know that you have five fingers because you see it what happens the blind person what happens to you when you close your eyes how do you know you feel it it looks like you feel it okay one two three four five okay now take a child that is just learning to count does he have feelings big time right he has a lot of feelings why doesn't he have the feeling for five fingers what is the missing knowledge so how do we know that we have five fingers because of our knowledge because of our knowledge we know to count because of our knowledge we know to understand what are we feeling but this doesn't happen just because our eyes are just because our touch it starts with our br with our brain the knowledge that comes into us is who we are is what we understand that's what we have to focus because sometimes and we're going to try to see it in a few different places we want to see pictures like here five fingers i see it it's not i see it i know it it's much more in my brain than what it is in my vision my vision helps me it really starts from the brain so let's start let's start from the beginning birishit okay god created the world and created a beautiful world and he throws he brings adam marisha and he brings in khaba we're already into the story and hashem comes over to him and he says tell me what you hear hashem tells of adam alicia from all the trees of canadian you should eat right this is the translation of the words hashem hashem commands okay doesn't give it as an option it commands from all the trees you should eat what do you guys know are we allowed to eat from all the trees no there's one tree that you're not allowed to eat um but there's one tree that you shouldn't eat from it i don't understand before a second hashem says eat from all the trees then he says oh but don't eat from one tree it's as if you know you forgot you know you take a guess to your house and you say okay you could take anything you want oh one closet don't touch that's my closet like okay you know you don't say everything you say that closet is pesach but the rest of it you could eat we would expect hashem to say don't eat from this tree but the rest of it you could eat and what's this tree this tree is in front of you in front of your eyes it's the most beautiful tree what's going on i know it's the wrong posture don't worry i'm still ejaculated but not the huh they intended so what's the difference between this is how my father would explain what's the difference between eight sachein to ata das what's a tahim and what's ata das where we have two trees either heim what does it remind us a trim the torah is the tree of wisdom of life this is how we live our life this is the best way to live our life that's the torah what's aidsa das etza das is knowledge it's adas is knowledge hashem is telling another malicious look in your life in every person's life we always gonna have two ways to go about life one way is just it's a does rabbi tell me what i have to do tell me what i have to wear tell me how many hours do i have to pray tell me how many hours i have to learn tell me what i have to do that's it does give me the instructions what i have to do the other way around is going through the path to it learning about it what is terror let's take for example shabbos okay so shabbos there's two ways of keeping chalice there's one way of just you know you open shmi you're allowed you're not allowed you know there's like there's very technical instructions that you could get out to keep shabbos but everybody knows if they just keep shabbos of what you're allowed and what you're not allowed it's like it's not you it's just keeping a list of things what's the right way to learn about chabas to understand what is shabbos what does it mean to rest what does it mean hashem is resting what are we supposed to enjoy in shabbos the the shabbos is is maybe it's it's a result or it's maybe part of it it's it's it's an important part of it but the way is first of all to learn about it if you learn about something and then you do it it's much more powerful and this is what hashem is telling other malicion you have two ways to go and you have to get to the tree of knowledge you're going to get to the tree of knowledge we call it at the end of the day you're going to eat from all the trees but the way to get there is first of all it's a time you have to learn step by step grow step by step understand what are you doing and eventually you're going to get to what you're allowed and what you're not allowed and it doesn't mean that we you know before we learn about it we could do what we want for sure not as we kids we get as we're kids we start with etsa das okay they tell us what you're allowed what you're not allowed but you have to understand that your life needs to go through the torah you have to learn about it you have to think about it this is the thinking process it's a das is just the doing it's a haim is the thinking and this is what we have a challenge are we going to think about it are we just going to do it and that was the mistake of adam alicia he jumped to the conclusion he jumped to what we're allowed to not allowed and one of the examples that the tarot brings for us is an interesting example they realize after they eat from this tree of knowledge they realize that they're not dressed and now now that they realize that they're not dressed what happens they hear hashem coming so what are they doing they hiding if you know what's hashem excuse me okay if you know what's hashem what are you what are you hiding what are you hiding could you hide from hashem but what happened they learned about sneers they learned in the way of what you're allowed and what you're not allowed what's appropriate and what's not appropriate and then they say ah gem is coming i have to hide but there wasn't through a thinking process what do you have to do you have to learn about sneers you have to understand what's new then you understand you don't hide of hashem it's a different thing altogether it's growing yourself up and that would basically hashem does shen takes them out and sends them to the land what's what what is hashem teaching adam alicia he says look we know if we want a piece of bread what do we do we just go to the store right what tree is that the tree of knowledge it exists you know you buy or you don't buy but once upon a time a person knew that if he wants to have bread he has to go through a very long process and this is what hashem is teaching us you have to go the long process because you're here not just to do you hear mostly to think about it because when you think about it it's yours when you just do it then you do it it's nice but it's not really yours you're not really connected to it so theory starts this is a challenge of human beings but let's let's jump to the jewish people and to jump to the jewish people is just before mahmud al-sinai hashem comes and he offers the terror to many different nations and the jewish people come up with the secret you guys know what's a secret what's a code to get into my model sinner which quote do they need to say okay the medalist says that when hashem hears that the jewish people said na seven ishmael he says who gave out my secret my father would ask let's try to understand how it works okay there's a cabinet hashem sits with all his guys he says i have a secret don't tell no one okay don't tell no one if they say nothing we let them in okay and then i said oh who gave out my secret we'll give out the secret hashem doesn't know who gave out the secret so who gave that who gives out the secret so my father would say like this the torah tells us who gave out the secret many places it's written in what's the understanding of ida berashem hashem speaks to moses and it gives moses the right to speak to different groups in different ways in different words i mean the the idea is the same thing the aloha is the same thing when different you know he if he fixes up to every crowd they would speak to the young to the to the older hashem gave him the permission every time hashem gave him the permission that's why the bear hashem in moshe that's literally the words there's one place in the torah one place in the torah that hashem calls up martial abeno and he tells them i have a mission for you i have a mission for you i want you to go to the jewish people and i want you to tell them exactly these words not more not less and in disorder one place in the torah one place in the third rashi says it in this language and in this order and after the words okay an extreme that alone is something to look into you know the only place that hashem tells musha allah hears exactly the words not more not less not in this order it's like whoa probably there's here something what's the result mushroom it's written the martial available comes and he says exactly these words and what's the result what does amiso say nah seven ishmael okay so it's like i tell you go to this child tell him these words and see what he says right i know what he's going to say so basically hashem is giving over the secret and then the second will try to explain what so why is hashem asking but what was it hashem tells much albein when he says look go to the jewish people and tell them you have seen what i did in egypt i took you on the wings of the eagle if you're going to listen you're going to be the chosen nation you're going to be these is the things that you should put in front of them and what was the result they said nasa venism basically what hashem is telling moshe albano is go tell the jewish people think you saw how much i did for you you saw that i picked you on the wings of the eagle does anyone recall that we was on the rings of the eagle how big was the ego right technically we wasn't on the wings of the eagle if you look into rashi so it's all class about nature says let me tell you how the out the eagle works how does it work he says when the eagle comes when the eagle needs to take his children then the regular bird takes them with his hands right because the regular bird is afraid from the eagle right but the ego that's not afraid from the eagles they still afraid of people shooting him then he puts them on his shoulders wait you didn't answer me the question did hashem take the jewish people on the wings of eagle yes or no we don't recall i mean we are down and they're covered maybe it's like it gets the feeling of but what is really hashem saying with this so that brings me to a question is like what's really the difference between an eagle and a regular bird we just say the the regular bird takes his kids in his hands the the eagle takes him on his shoulders so what i mean basically bottom line what is two of them doing they protecting the children for the best as they could no so what's so special about the ego how she says that if you shoot him so the the arrow will go into him and not enter his children and guess what if they fall down from up there what's going to happen to them they did so what's so special about it so i flew on the wings of the eagle i mean american airlines is the ego right sci flew on the wings of their guy just came and i realized something very interesting who's a window sitter right it's fun okay when you when you travel there's two ways to look from the window if you look down if there's no clouds it's beautiful right sometimes you could see the mountains you could see it's like in you know uh playmobil right little playmobil so you see you see it you know you could see from the airplane right when you when you look up what do you see endless right now let's think about these birds that they in their parents hands the regular bird takes his children with his hands right and he's flying what does a child see on the way he sees earth right what's the message of the father's children that's life we go from a to z watch out no one doesn't need you underway that's life right the eagle when he puts his children on his shoulders what do they see when they fly endless and what's the message of the ego the message of the eagle to his children is not just i protect you not just i would do everything for you but even more important right remember the sky is the limit remember how much power you have remember how big you could be that's what hashem is telling us it wasn't on this bird it wasn't this thing the hashem showed us if we go with god the sky is the limit we have so much to accomplish in our lives and the next lives we have so much and he tells much about he says tell them if they think about it because this is not something that you could see right but this is something that you could think if they think about it it's just going to come out of them nah seven ishmael it's it's it's a it's a scream that comes out imagine someone comes to you and he really really takes care of you i mean we're in a cynical world right if someone comes he takes care of okay what do you want from me like you know it's like but imagine someone really so nice he takes care of you everything for you there's nothing you could give him he's very rich he's very fair you don't need nothing from him okay and he really takes care of you and one day he calls you up i like to tell the young couples like you remember when your husband called you up and says listen we have a good project for us and he's like yeah what what what like right when you're so sure about someone you're so sure about that person when he's going to pick up the phone and he's going to say i have a great project for you i have something that you're going to gain from it so much you jump that's the idea of nasa venisma if you understand who is god if you understand how much god gave you how much he opens for you the worlds how much he's protecting you is so much around you you want to scream the nasa and ishmael but that's only if you think and the jew says nasa venisma and they all end and they're all in and guess what happens the next the next puzzle after they say nasa venisma so hashem tells moishe okay you know what's the next step this is the process here's the next step i will come i'll speak to you people will listen and they will believe in you forever this was the plan if they trust me so good if they all in here's the plan this is what needed to be but what happened okay beautiful song right now comes back to hashem and he says let me tell you what the jewish people said comes back to hashem and he says hashem the jewish people what do they want they want to see hashem and rashid says and this is part of the song of course it's not the same if you hear from the messenger then if you hear from the king we want to see our king do you see a do you see a problem with this line again it's not the same if we hear from the messenger or we hear from the king we want to see does he already a confusion what's the difference between to see into here what's worse for a person to be blind or to be deaf let's try it out okay let's try it out close your eyes for a second okay you hear me i'm here right okay now close your ears for a second what was more hard for us hearing the eyes see the picture the years is your mind is your thinking the jewish people says maybe it makes sense it doesn't make sense we'll say it in a second but but what did what's the result of it we want to see god what does that mean we don't want to thank god we want to see god we want to see a picture of him we want to hold on to him and hashem tells mashallah and you're looking rashi the next word is hashem says hashem says if i have no choice then we'll make a nice show we'll make a nice show that's called my model c night i don't want to hurt any feeling but let me ask you with a yes or no did the jewish people see hashem on mama sinner yes or no no you can't see a shin you could hear hashem you could understand the shame you could not see hashem but that's our challenge we want to touch it we want to have it in our hands we want to you know we want to we want him and hashem says okay what do my mother say i'll make a big show and we'll make like it's a big production and that that that but the bottom line is if they're not going to think they're not going to get nothing and that's what he does he brings down coilers that if you look in i don't make it too long but if you look in the jewish people on my mother hashem says to moshe tell them not to go up on the mountain hello why do they have to go up on the mountain they see everything it's like you go to a concert like you want to sit on this stage like you want to sit and look on on the stage right i shouldn't say they shouldn't go up why it wasn't enough they said maybe we're going to go under maybe we could grab anta maybe we could touch on him it still did did our we want it's our taive i don't know what to call it it's like we want to touch hashem and after sarah sadibus how does it finish off tells much about we got it and we're going to listen we're going to listen these are the words you speak to us we got it we just have to use our brain we have to do the br we have to use our brain and motion comes them down and he says just wanted to give you the experience that's nissan to give you the experience you shouldn't have this mistake again and what's the next line you understood i spoke to you from heaven what shouldn't you do lotta sweetie you get it straight after my mother what's the first thing dashem says don't do eloye we just saw him we just understood hashem very nice but still going to be a challenge don't make a god of gold don't make a god you wait and see you wait and see that's going to be the challenge and guess what what happened a few weeks after it they did it again they did a golden calf and if you think about it martial avenue comes with the lucha sabres it bothers me this year i like i i realize that much albania comes with lucha sabris maybe these other people have a better explanation it takes the lucha sabres and he breaks it on the floor first of all when did much of new dam have sinned already hashem tells them hashem up there tells them you know your nation if you don't think that they deserve it just leave it there right why do you bring it and smash it on the floor and excuse me you know i don't like you guys boom you know what what are you doing what are you doing why didn't martial albania need to break the luchos a breeze gave me a gift and there's another two words with the with the lucha estabrise what's written where did he break it what difference does it make where he broke it so he broke his hand there and the valley i mean why does the torah need to tell us where we broke it and i think that this is what martial abandon is trying to tell the jewish people he says you see the luch you see i'm holding it it's a miracle the letters is it this is so many this is the lucha sabres but this is not worth nothing if you don't use your mind it's not worth nothing this what it wasn't because i'll see like that was the message of how sinai think that's why he takes a breaks he says i have to remind you you just saw it you just realized it think and let's jump just uh you know to get to some bottom line of this the jewish people is having a fight with martial abandon okay and so we're going to do a sumo started voracious we're getting there so the jewish people is having a fight with moshe albano back and forth and michelle albano i mean the guy is so cool like seriously like you know if i'm right fire from the sky yeah boom yeah let me ask you seriously if i would tell you all of you okay if i'm telling you the right thing then we'll come fire from the sky and eat up this bottle okay only this battle nothing else and it would happen someone wouldn't believe in me anymore come on right voice albino brings fire from the sky doesn't work i have a better idea have a better idea we'll move to the side a second that's enough exactly if i'm right the floor is going to split okay and it does split wow right and what happens the next day you killed the jewish what's what's going on we always have a feeling if we would see a miracle if things would be so clear in front of our eyes then we wouldn't have no questions then we would do everything with happiness and we would come on it's just because we have no miracles we don't have it but guess what these people in the in in the in the desert they saw it all mushroom does everything doesn't help how does he solve the problem the don't want to read everything but basically hashem calls up marcia albano and he says listen i have a solution out to solve this problem i have a solution what what else could we do i mean you know we did everything what else could we do hashem tells me tell the jewish people tell them each one to bring a stick every tribe to bring a stick and we will put it into the closet we'll put it here under this okay we'll close it up and tomorrow morning we're going to open it up and whoever is going to have a flower everybody is going to know seriously we opened the ground we took down the fire it was a pandemic it was everything nothing didn't change one stick with one flower is gonna change hashem says tell them to bring a stick how does it make sense and this is how my father would explain it he says listen if a person doesn't want to see hashem if he doesn't want to think it doesn't matter what's going to happen around him the skies is going to fall the ground is going to open fire is going to come from different places nothing is not going to change but if you want to use your brain if you want to understand it means you're going to bring the stick and you can say i want to understand i want to think about it it's enough even one little flower to change your life if we think we could change our lives and already over the time one more the name asiator is based on this whole story it's based on this old story why didn't my father call asha toro asiator he said he took it from the story of rabbi akiva rabia kiva i always call him is the most interesting conflict that a jewish person ever had from one hand one of the great of the greatest i even say i don't understand what does it mean but that's what the medal says that when rabbi when martial avenue comes up to bring the torah he sees the yeshiva of rabbi akiva christian he's like he's like he's jealous he's what's called shadai it's like jealous let's call it like that and two when he heard that they say then he come down was one of the greatest but what happened until age 40 rabbi akiva is totally ignorant what changes his life the water dropping on the rock the water dropping in the rock the madras says sees the water dropping in the rock and he says water can make a hole in the rock and they say yes here's the fact that the neem the water makes a hole in the rock hawaii makes and he says if water could make a hole in the rock then torah that's like fire could change my heart that's our name asiatura but my father would explain you say okay it's a beautiful story but let's think about it what changed in the life of rabbi akiva what did he see there in the water the guy was on the extreme he said give me a thumbnail bite him like a dunk break his bones like what did he see there that changed his life i used this example i mean first of all my father would say if i take one drop of water and i drop it on the floor you're americans you don't know it's a floods or carpets but we drop it on a rock one one drop right does it make a difference yes or no so i use this joke they say that israeli comes to a gas station and goes over to the gas tender and he says excuse me so how much is a drop of gas the guy looks at him it says a drop of gas for free what does the israeli say you know american polite what does an israeli say full up a tank of gas of drops of gas right it's simple meth if one drop hashem is also bringing your traps if one drops a zero then a trillion drops is still going to be zero you say this would change our cuba's life labia kiva wanted to see the difference right away you would go into a class i don't see the difference i don't see the difference in different words it would jump to aids adas i want to see i want to i want it to happen i want it to happen already and it stopped him it stopped him and it got him so frustrated because you don't see the difference but if you go back to it's a heim and you understand that everything is a process and every step that you do every thought that you have everything that you learned you are a different person the sky is the limit my father said that's the essence of the name of aisha tara don't jump to the conclusion learn about it take step-by-step by step but understand how powerful is it to think and i'll just finish off with ideas that my father would do okay so we tell people what you what would you rather be happy or rich everybody says happy okay this is br you get someone to think you don't tell him come on you want to be happy he's like you know no thank you what do you ask him what do you want to be what's your life you think and he thinks for a second says i want to be happy and then you tell him tell me how much time in your life are you going to invest in learning how to be happy and how much time in your life you're going to invest in learning how to be rich you see you see how different is it if you tell someone something like this or you cause him to think happiness love how long do you want to be married how long do you want to love so many things that he would put it for them to think if we cause other people to think if we cause ourselves to think we could see god that's resulted thank you very much
