The great Maami pono who is a great
makubal ends up saying in a sed gilgulim
something very interesting kamur as we
all know took advantage of dina and as a
result of that his whole city got killed
by shiman and ley by shim and
levy the only thing is that since he
ended up doing a brema before he ended
up dying so he had a certain level of
being Jewish we're talking about before
matan the only mitzvah that they had was
the idea of breilm is the separation
between the and the Jew. So he sort
of speak had a mini conversion that
occurred before he got killed and
therefore there was a necessity to have
a tikun to fix up the that was done with
Dina that was done by Benamore. Who was
this tun? So when in the Gilgal happened
through the son of the great
grandchildren of Shiman Zimri Ben Solo
who ended up falling to the wayside and
having any he also had a test and he
ended up having relations with Cosby. He
ended up having this test of Aayat and
he himself made the mistake that
happened to his previous Gilgal and also
made a mistake also causing the death of
24,000 people because of his mistake
24,000 people ended up dying as a result
of that. So interestingly, Ley was the
one who ended up killing all of he was
the zealot that went and killed all of
and also over here Pinas who was a great
descendant of Ley ended up being the one
who ended up killing over here also
Zimry doing the same in same exact
thing. Also interestingly enough Shimon
was one of the zealots who ended up
killing but in this case he was on the
bad side. He was on Zimre's side. was
from Zimir was from the descendants of
Shimon. So we have Ley the descendant of
Ley killing the descendant of Shimon as
a result of his mistake and falling from
this nayon. So we have to have a tikun
for this one also. Who is that tun?
Here's where it becomes relevant for
that's the great reba. Rebea was given
the task of having to have this nisan to
come in his place in order to be a tikun
for this mistake that occurred of the
24,000 people that died. And of course
we know that lost 24,000 Talmidian his
great wife knew that he was here for
this Gilgul for this tikun and she
married him and refused to have him come
back 12 years until 24 years passed and
he had 24,000 talim as is brought to the
kubalim when he had these 24,000 and
they all died that was a tikun for the
of what occurred these these sadikim or
incredible that was a tikun of the that
happened previously by by the door of
Shimon and previously by and the whole
entire the whole entire catastrophe that
happened previously to this but that
wasn't enough he needed to make a tikun
for the that happened previously and
that's what we have the gay that brings
it to an his everlasting enemy of reba
that couldn't stand him and hated how
what an angelic figure this person
was was speaking to his wife who is a
very very beautiful woman and they
decided together as a good would
like to do that. They're going to go
ahead and make Rabbi Aika stumble. And
he sent his wife to go ahead and
actually be Mafet to go ahead and
convince Rabi to make a very grave and
bitter mistake. When she went to him, as
the Gor says, she did something uncanny,
something unusual that someone would
never do such a thing. And she revealed
her thigh. Could you imagine that?
Someone would actually a woman would
reveal her thigh. That's what this Goya
did. Something that would be un unheard
of in such a thing. Just to make you
realize where we're holding compared to
where they were at that time. And since
she was s of such beauty, it shed light
says the garra in the whole entire room.
But Rubika didn't look rather what did
he do? It says over there that he spit
and then he cried and then he left. So
she wanted to know what's the message
behind all these things. So he said two
out of three I'll tell you. He spit to
say this is what you come from. This is
where your sources such beauty comes
from such a small piece of seed. And
then he says he cried because such
beauty that that such beauty is going to
end up going straight to the ground and
decompose and become like nothing and
just turn into a bag of bones and so
useless. And here it is how runs the
world in doing that. And she says and
once to the laughter he said excuse me I
got to go I'm sorry and he did explain
lameisa she was so mummified so she was
so couldn't believe this exemplary type
of person that could take such a
scenario a run away like a yosphiti can
b see see it in such an intellectual way
and be able to see to see everything
that she stood for in such a perspective
and she ended up divorcing her husband
converting and believe it or not she
ended up marrying Rabbi a reports and
that's one of the ways Zikiba actually
became very wealthy cuz she was a very
wealthy woman. Anyways, he ended up
marrying her. And then eventually when
she was married, she said, "No, I'm your
wife. You have to be able to tell me
everything. We don't hold secrets from
our wives as we all know." And he ended
up telling her, "Well, I'll tell you
what the laugh was about." He laughed
because he said, "I knew that instead of
having that not to fall into the is this
would only be in a he knew that you
would end up marrying me anyways."
That's what the says. But we see from
this incredible task that he ended up
making a tikunta for the sin of the
previous gilgal that happened with the
with that. From here we see a very
important and that is every little
action that we do has tremendous
ramifications in many different worlds.
We don't realize the little things we do
the little that we pass that people
don't notice no no one ever sees but
everything comes back to sham. and comes
back to that
place and that's why was so excited at
the time when he was being shim because
he realized call he was being to go
ahead his whole entire life to be sham
we're not supposed to look to be sham to
dial but he knew that he was reasoning
his epics he realized that he was
accomplishing his tikun of his gil after
him there will be more no more gilgulim
of this previous cycle because he
realized he was accomplishing his task
and from here I want to bring about one
important idea and that is the
importance to realize what is lies in
every little action that we do whether
we see it for people outside or hidden
in the world. We don't realize that they
are things that are actually cataclyic
in the whole entire world. They affect
the whole entire world from here till
every we know every
little anywhere every little flap of a
butterfly affects the whole entire world
and our little actions affect
everything. We know in science that
there is a rule in science that is the
idea of the conservation of energy that
there's not one piece of energy that is
wasted. Everything is held. Nothing
disappears. It only get transferred from
one place to the next. If you're
swinging on a swing and you have energy
and you want to slow down. So you cause
friction in your feet when you slow
yourself down on the ground. And that
friction is the transference of energy
from one place to the next. Every action
that we do is never wasted. It is
utilized to its detail.
who sees everything and it comes like we
just spoke out with many different
details of where it comes from and with
this I'm going to end with an incredible
story which kind of brings out this idea
a true story that happened
with Vasamin from Bonovich over there he
was having a tremendous amount of
financial stress to be able to support
his incredibly large yeshiva of course
we knew he was extremely successful
Russovich he tried to go to Russia he
tried to go to Poland but to no avail.
He was not successful until he realized
he's going to have to make that dreadful
trek to America for many reasons. First
of all, the trick at that time was crazy
to be able to go. It was dealing with a
trick of it meant a half a year trip.
There was no ll flights at the time and
he knew what it meant basically is that
he's going to have to go by buggy and
then by boat and besides the incredible
expense behind it, the amount of time
and stress and energy that he will have
to utilize to get there. But he realized
it was a necessity to support his bahim
who couldn't even put food on the table.
Push it literally food on the table.
Finally when he made it to America after
over a month of
traveling he uh asked and spoke to
certain someone acquaintance of his that
he knew a person by the name of Antel
and he address he told him that there's
a person by the name of Philip Goldstein
who was originally known as Pinas
Vaserman. coincidentally the same last
name. I don't know. I had a little bit
of relation maybe, but he said this
already changed his name to Philip
Goldstein and he is an incredibly
wealthy person. He's one of the more
wealthy people over here in New York. He
lives in Manhattan. He said, "Go ahead
and go to him and maybe you'll get some
money out of him." He said, "Okay, take
me." He said, "I'll be honest with you.
This guy's completely off the derek. He
used to be a pin. He turned into a
philillip. He's totally not religious. A
and I have to be honest with you, he's a
complete kaman, a very stringy person.
doesn't like to give tuckers. You're not
going to get too far with him. But you
know, Verves, go ahead and try. You
never know. Raan decided, I'm going to
go to him because he also remembered
that he knew him as a Yingal in Europe.
He remembered that they grew up together
when they were younger until they each
parted their own ways. He tried to go
and catch up with his secretary once,
twice, three times. I'm sorry. I'm
sorry, Mr. Goldass. He's too busy. He's
too busy. I'm sorry, Philip just can't
answer the phone. I'm sorry. until he
finally was able to go and circumvent
the secretary, get the message to this
Philip who recognized Rab Khan Rasman's
name as his old childhood friend and he
delightfully invited him to come into
his office in
Manhattan. Hashem, they came and they
exchanged some old stories from the
past. You remember this? You remember
that teacher? You remember this? You
remember when we did this and that? And
they were very much enjoying the
conversation. And he asked him so what
are you doing now? Raan told him well I
learned in by the
great eventually I moved to the co inno
and then eventually I was able to open a
shiva in in veranovich and I have 400
talim now that I'm taking care of and
I'm teaching them over there and what's
with you Phil what's going on with you
pinas in other words he didn't call him
philip he said and what's going on with
you so pinhas told him well you know
when I was 17 years old I finished you
know yeshiva days and I decided to make
to trek over here to the golden golden
medina. I decided to come to America and
I was able to fix a broken sewing
machine and I started sewing things for
people and slowly but surely with the
extra little money change I was able to
do I was able to open a store and from a
store to a company and from here I have
a massive corporation now and I'm
employing 300 people and 400 talim him
300 employees I'm considered the biggest
coat factory in Manhattan and I have a
big name and I am very successful. I'm
not sure if he said the word. Anyways,
that was the exchange that they had. So
then after, like we said, having a
little bit more of a of a kesh between
them, he said, "So what brings you here,
Harav? Why'd you come? Why'd you end up
coming to America?" So he said, "I just
came to say hi. It was so nice to see
you." He said, "Come on, you don't come
to America to say hi." He said, "No, no,
that's why I came. Thank you so much for
having me. It was so enjoyable seeing
you. It's time to part our ways and Roan
left. And that's it. He left on his ways
without telling him anything or asking
him any requests. After 2 or 3 days, he
received a phone call from this Philip
from this pinas. And he told him, "Arav,
can you come? I want to have a little
bit more conversation with you. I really
miss you. I want to speak a little bit
more before you go back to uh Europe."
So he said, "No problem." They came and
they met again in his office and he told
him, "I can't sleep. Why did you come? I
got to know. Come on, tell me. I'm
tossing and trying. I'm trying to figure
it out. I'm guessing here and guessing
there." I guess back then there weren't
so many. There weren't so many people
collecting for yeshiva. So the guy
couldn't figure it out. But anyways, he
was asking him what? Come on, tell me
the truth. Why did you come? So he told
him, "All right, if you're already
pushing me, I'm going to tell you the
truth. You see this frock I'm wearing?
I'm wearing a frock. It has two buttons
in the back. One is loose. It's a little
bit loose and needs tightening. And the
other one already fell off and I need
someone to replace the buttons. You have
a button factory. You have a whole coat
factory. You do buttons. So, I came here
in order to you to loosen to tighten up
the loose button and replace my button.
I would really appreciate if you could
help me out. What? Are you serious? Do I
look like I'm crazy? Do you know this
corporation I built cuz I'm a very
intelligent person? You're talking to me
like I'm some dodo brand, like there's
something wrong with me. Are you being
serious? Nobody comes from Europe to
America, especially with the Trek that
the Raveta put out in order to go ahead
and sew a couple buttons. Come on, let's
be real. He said, I don't understand why
not. I need to sew a couple buttons. Why
not? He said, come on. The amount of
money you spent just on this trip is
just uh about almost over a hundred
rubles. And to go ahead and sew on a
button is a kaputa. It's one kaput. How
much does it cost in order to be able to
do it? Come on, let's be real. Be honest
with me. Tell me why you came. He goes,
"No, no, the buttons. The buttons. Can
you help me out? I just need help with
the
buttons." They exchanged, made a few
exchanges, and that's it. He couldn't he
couldn't help himself. Eventually, he
said to him, "Look, Arav, I can't. you
have to tell me why you're here. You
wouldn't come all this way just for a
few buttons. So he asked him, "You mean
I wouldn't do it? Why not? Because I
wouldn't do it because it's not worth it
to make the whole long trek." He goes,
"Yes." He says, "So the Raban told him,
well, let me tell you something. The
Gariga says, the famous Gumar says the
incredible trick that the nishama has to
go from the higher worlds to the lower
worlds in order to come here. The
complex world that we live in that was
created by this bar and the screaming
and the yelling that the nama does
before he has to come this whole entire
trip and be thrown into the body that is
here. Why does he come all this way? For
a few buttons. Is that why he flew all
this way? He made the whole trek only in
order to make a few buttons to produce a
few coats and make a few bucks to be
able to do that. It's got to be that
he's here for a bigger reason. As the
basil which charm writes in the first
peric it's got to be that he made this
whole entire track not for a few buttons
he must be here for a bigger reason
pinas do you remember where you came
from do you remember the sources where
you come from all of that that you came
from the nama that comes has got to be
something bigger than the corporation
and these 300 workers that are working
for you pinas started to cry for the
first time in over a couple decades it
would been so long since he felt it in
his he misses. He remembers he remembers
going back to those days and coming
back. Immediately Raan opened the garra
and learned with him one of the gumaras
that they learned when they were kvouses
as young children together when they
were 10 11 years old and he started
learning and he couldn't get enough of
it. He was sweeping it up and with in
trouble tears in his eyes he was so
emotionally connected to this gar he
said arav you've got to stay. You've got
to stay and learn with me. He said, "I
can't stay, but I'm going to set you up
with andem you will continue to be able
to do to be able to do
that." In the end of the day, Raban was
Malis. He told him in the end of the day
when he asked, "So why did you come?"
And he told him, "Well, the real reason
I came is for the yeshiva." And the guy
told him, "The next two years of your
yeshiva support, full support, it's on
me. I'm taking care of the next two
years in Boranovich. You can go back
there, feel comfortable. They're going
to be taking care of Kali with her e
economic situation and everything is
going to be okay. You know there's a
song they made based on this story that
I just quoted. You don't go to America
for a few karim for a few buttons. We
don't move. Can we try to remember? Can
we try to think if we're investing blood
lifeline the amount of years that we
have in something that we are only going
to find ourselves when we turn 60 65 70
and it's time for retirement age and we
only have come on let's be realistic a
few more years left after that we always
say to be optimistic and it's very nice
but I don't know too many people that
made it that far let's live it to 90
we'll give you 90 and unfortunately we
know it does happen sometimes at 75 80
85 I've you know it's one thing to use
up blood how much time energy time and
is money or is money time remember how
much you put into your life how much you
expend into it and don't waste it on a
few buttons I understand to get that
more comfortable house that nicer
shaitle to be able to have those extra
expendences and those weddings those
flavors weddings that we have but let's
go ahead and invest it in the right
place I'll be honest with you here init
Israel I don't speak about this. I'm not
going to give this drussia here in
Israel cuz I don't think that's over
over being done. But over here, I see
over and over about what's happening
sometimes on the other side of the ocean
and we start realizing that, you know,
if you can't control it over there,
maybe you should be moving to Israel.
But if not, at least remember Raan's
message. We don't do it just for a few
buttons. We don't waste life just for a
few buttons. Every action that you do
has so much potencies. Rabika's Gilgal
that went ahead and he did such a little
thing by just walking away from Sufas
when every Vimayan video is discussing
he did just that little bit of thing and
he caused a he caused an absolute effect
in the whole entire world all the
Gilgulim and everything that he
infected. Let's take this message, put
it into our kishkas, and remember to go
ahead and fix those buttons.
