[Music] you said the interview is only 90 minutes i should have 90 days uh i will start with a very short uh overview that exactly like you said 18 years ago i changed my life as a result of a clinical death that i experienced i was clinically dead for seven minutes which many people already heard the experience whether live or through videos and there's one part in that experience where it's very difficult to explain but i saw the beginning and the world and everything in between in one long panoramic view this is where words really can describe but i saw how the beginning was what's the middle and how's the end and the end of course is the time of the redemption which that was given in two options and all boiled down that the redemption is based and depending on us and besides the desire and the need to become observant and to fulfill god's commandments our ultimate desire and wish and goal right now is to bring the redemption to be physical whether it's accepted by people or not but we are already at the times of mashiach is already here the world is almost ready for the revelation the problem is that we are the problem uh many years ago it was the laboratory who said the redemption is here just open your eyes so with that said our main focus when i'm saying are all mankind jews and non-jews our main focus needs to be in how we're bringing the redemption it's not about a startup it's not about going and learning now to be a doctor it's not about anything else but how am i hasting the redemption and how am i making sure that i'm involved in it that it will come not only faster but smoother to a point that we can all experience this redemption that is not an easy thing to do uh obviously we were failing with it for the last two thousand years we always had the option of hastening the gula the talmud says that we have two options how the redemption will come and it's time or you can bring it faster unfortunately we're not doing what we're supposed to do and we're kind of walking in the dark and bumping into walls because we don't have the right guidance bo hashem in our generation we have a lot of knowledge a lot of access to knowledge and i do feel that many people going on the wrong track they're yeah they want to be observant they want to fulfill them it's vote but they're not focusing on what we need to focus on there's a lot of things to focus on no question that we have to better ourselves as jews and even as non-jews are also obligated and fulfilling mitzvot title under the seven laws of noah it's more like 70 laws and seven but when i need to kind of focus on something most dominating how am i involved in hasting the redemption then i need to know what can i do now unfortunately many people don't interpret the knowledge that we have the right way and i'll give you one example out of many we do know based on the talmud this can be found in practice and henderson and many other places that before the redemption is going to be a very big war this war is called goku magog there's difference of opinions if we had the war it didn't have the war the mao beam says because some opinion says there were already happened the mao beam says no there's going to be three wars that's what the khafiz khan said get a clear prophecy that the war world war one was the first goku magog based on the tsar that there's going to be three wars so the world war one was the first war the sky get a prophecy the 25 years right after that will be the second goku magog which exactly between world war one to world war ii is 25 years and then the half it's crime based on the different information from the gone from vilna the melbourne and many other sources 72 years later will come the last war now yes the war can be a physical war which that's what we want to prevent but azov says something very very interesting the war is called goku magog the zom calls it gigi gigi means thoughts the war of thoughts and i gave a whole lecture three years ago explaining in depth what does it mean the war of thoughts and i call it the war of screens because we're all in front of a screen and even right now we're in front of a screen believe it or not but we're attached to screens all the time so this is this is a perfect example how are we controlled by screens you saw i just was talking about the screen and i bet you for the last three weeks it didn't happen to anybody of the other interviewers i'm talking about the screens and right away the screen goes down that's just to emphasize that's interesting too yeah so watch our words a hundred percent so my analogy of goku magog is the war of screens and i'll tell you what i mean because if we're going to a more kabbalistic approach the highest level of perception is called razon that's means my will my desire kabbalistically saying that razon is placed in the sphere that is called ketel which means everything is concealed my will is really concealed now the first thing that is revealed to me as a human being is my thoughts and the entire internal world of a person is his thoughts you can live with me for 50 years you know what i'm thinking about you can look at me we can smile to each other we can talk to each other you have no idea what's going on in my mind and the root of everything is my thoughts and really one can say thought is the man because the entire feeling of existence of me is my thought when i have to explain people my near-death experience it's very very difficult i remember it like as if it happened yesterday morning every detail but i remember it in my thoughts now bring it into words it's almost impossible now most people and again i want to make sure that i'm giving a disclaimer i'm not trying to hurt anybody's feelings rather we want to bring a subject and a concept to awareness most people their thoughts are not balanced and the reality is that it brings bad thoughts and i'll give you an example what i'm talking about many people unfortunately are sick very soon in the time of the redemption when mashiach is going to be here nobody's going to be sick anymore the reason why some some people are sick is it's uh the system is being attacked in the wrong way and the system is so to say building a system to fight it to resist it i'll give you an example somebody coughs people think if you're coughing that's a sickness no it's not is my body resisting i'm coughing out something that came into my system a foreign object with that said i'll give you an example a person is a smoker the first time he takes a cigarette into his mouth he will start coughing because the system is not adjusted to that how come after 10 years or a month or two weeks he doesn't cough anymore the system builds some type of a resistance for this foreign object that is coming in in order to still maintain itself but that's not the right way the right way is not to put into your body the smoke so when there's a certain entity coming and bothering the nephesh the soul the soul will build some type of a system to to resist it and we have many different emotions that are bothering us anger and depression and sadness and really when you're thinking about it why are we waiting for mashiach to come for everybody to be healed because there's no healing to a disease the healing for the disease is to stop the stimulation when something is stimulating and bothering me then the system is reacting the wrong way and i need to bring back to my system the normal habits so to say now when mashiach is going to come what's going to be the dominating thing is we're going to reach completion for perfection what is called in hebrew now you cannot remove the completion from its reality this you can get more perfect than already when from perfection but you can only bother perfection right now we are in exile so we are bothering the world of being perfect when mashiach is going to come what does it say oh perfect world no hates no diseases no wars no hunger why because perfection will be revealed so i'll give you an example a feeling that we all want to have is called simcha joy happiness happiness is perfection but how come i'm not happy how come you're not happy or any other people they're not constantly happy because the the happiness is there it's just that it's covered that's it so i just need to recover something now the perfection is there god created a perfect world you cannot bother it it cannot be created you know the world was created in the state of gula but later on it was covered so we cannot change the perfection we just need to reveal it right now we're in a state that we are not revealing it because we're occupied with many different distractions now i'll give you an example of what i'm trying to say to simplify it hypothetically go to space right now there's no light in space it's dark according to nasa of course and the pictures that we're getting from satellites so there's no light in space oh there is light in space it's just covered you just don't see it so it doesn't mean that there's no light in space there is it's just covered and concealed reveal it there's going to be what's called the o a revelation is here right now i don't see it then reveal it so we need to reveal it now how do you reveal or you cover something with your action our actions reveal something i can reveal affection and love and anger but i can cover my actions and you don't see anything this all goes again back to our thoughts the thoughts are not revealed and the thoughts are very quieting now what is this root of the stimulation that bothers me can be physically emotionally this is called mohin mukhin is the thoughts is the is the intellectual part this is the root of all feelings any type of feeling that i have is rooted in my thoughts now maybe i don't know how to backtrack it but the feeling that i have in me is what's called the result of a thought i would look at something and i'll give you an example if i walk in the street now in tel aviv and a secular person would look at me he would look at me he recognizes me as a heritage man here's another one right away he's filled with unbelievable emotions of love to me of course that's my my sarcasm he's not gonna have feeling full of love to me he's gonna have resentment to me do you know me did you ever talk to me why do you resent me because you have some type of a perception that the kharadi is like this and like that and i came to milk the government and i'm this and i'm three star you don't even know me you know i can be your best friend jewish context and i'll give you a live example one time i was on a bus and a secular man is sitting next to me and he went like this tell me what's wrong and he whispers to me you're all the same we're not all the same do you know me you know that i might be the your best friend so what if i have a beard so this is one example of many that i see something i think it and then right away it develops an emotion so any type of emotion will be the outcome or the result of a thought but the thought precedes everything everything is rooted in the thought and thoughts re they produce feelings now you have a question yeah i do are you talking about um i think about this a lot are you talking about conscious thoughts or subconscious thoughts were both for now we'll concentrate on the conscious thoughts not on the subconscious thoughts because if you know how to control your subconscious thoughts you can be extremely productive most people they're using the two three percent of their frontal part of the brain which is the conscious thoughts if you know how to tap into your subconscious thoughts you can do wonders and i'll give you one example i'll give you one example remaining i was a 15 years i was a very heavy smoker after i became observant after i wasn't really observing it but after my near-death experience i wanted to get rid of any type of bad habit that i had and i quit smoking how did i quit smoking with hypnotism and hypnotism what does it do it goes to your subconscious and it's so to say decodes the thoughts and the next day i stop smoking and i don't smoke for 18 years that's how powerful your subconscious is that if you know how to reach to your subconscious then you mo you can do wonders now going back to what i was saying before in order for me to change the reality i have to change my thoughts i have to change the pattern of my thought because our sages say thoughts is a prison and the mock the secret the intellect is genome hell so if i change my thoughts suddenly everything changes so the it's all in the in the so to say in the mind now in order for me to change something i need what's called the new mohin mohen is intellect mohan is secret is my mind is my intellectual part of my being and for the more kabbalistic approach then we have tense ten emanations where god is controlling and governing the world three of them are intellectual ones and the seven other ones are are emotional even though there is an argument between two of the greatest kabbalistics rabbits they kind of argue between themselves that rizal says the the mohin are mabina and that and the ramak says it's but either way this is irrelevant but the hohma is the right side of the brain and bina is the left side of the brain and that is the back side of the brain and bina when they unite they birth what's called dots our main problem in this world is that adam richon the blemish that he did was in itzhadat in the i mean we call it in english the tree of knowledge doesn't make sense in israel in english in hebrew is called it's haddad there's a reason why it's a tree why it's called the tree but since the blemish is in the that the tikkun has to be in the dart the world was created in a state of geology way was born into a world of redemption of a gula he did a boo-boo i did a little mistake and up until then we're fixing it we're paying for it so to say but the tikkun that we need to do is in dots this is kind of like a very short of what i want to talk about and then we're going to elaborate on that how we can reach to this tikkun i would really love it if you could just also give us a short explanation of why a tree oh there's nothing short about that but excuse me a medium tree represents something that belongs to two spheres the bottom part of the tree is the root it's beneath the ground and the trunk is above the ground this is representing the reveal world and the concealed world the tree will usually develop branches and leaves and fruits now because of the curse of the sin of adam richon there are 39 curses adam richon got 10 curses eve i don't like saying the name eve her name is hava her real name is haya later on after she sinned then the youth became above and it became hawa but her name is khaya a pretty common name but nevertheless she got 10 curses the serpent uh even though he's called in the torah nakash this is not a spaghetti coming into ghanaian this little spaghetti he was a human it was in the shape of a human just that his middle his characteristics was like a snake he got ten curses but also the land got nine curses so we have ten curses from adam ten from khaya khaba ten from the snake and nine from the land 39 curses which by the way this is where we get the 39 prohibitions when it comes to observing shabbat i know the shot the surface explains that it's the 39 labors that they did to build the tabernacle but it it's rooted in the 10 in the 39 curses that we got at the time of the sins so we have to correct that now part of the curses that the land got is that the land will cost it will grow thorns and dead leaves and so now most of the trees are barren they don't create fruit the minority of the trees they create fruit they bear fruit when mashiach is going to come by the way my kindergarten daughter she came home one day from kindergarten she told me my mora my teacher said that when machia's gonna come we're gonna have candies on the tree is that true i told her it's not that you're gonna take out a candy full of sugar and food coloring and chemicals no the peach is gonna be so sweet it's going to be candy and the apricot and the apple and whatever we're going to pick from the tree it's going to be unbelievable now when machine is going to come one of the first things that's going to happen all the trees are going to bear fruit we're going to go back to being vegetarians we're not going to eat animals anymore we're not intent we're not supposed to eat animals after noah and after that okay so we were allowed to eat animals but we're going to go back to our natural state we're going to eat exactly what a diamond from all the trees in the garden that's what you're going to eat from so the trees bear fruit now this is where it becomes a little bit more kabbalistic and deep to do it in a short explanation but fruit perot in the kabbalistic term is oat is light it's a godly revelation and god reveals himself in many different ways this is where our mind maybe will find it hard to explain or to fathom what does it mean that god is showing me a light what is he open a flashlight now here is an illumination some type of a giving of a knowledge a godly knowledge so this is called in the term of kabbalah that if the tree is bearing fruit it's manifest means that it's nourishing a godly revelation and mashiach is going to come what are we going to do all day long i think we're going to be playing beggarment or we're watching movies we're going to learn torah we're going to see giluim godly revelations one after the other so this is a very short explanation why specifically a tree because the tree the bottom is belong to the concealed world the top is belong to the revealed world what is called in the kabbalistic term alma date the gala the revealed world the concealed world which is all boils down so the same thing with thoughts my thoughts are concealed you don't know what my thinking about so if if if you want to continue with what i wanted to say [Music] yeah oh no no i'm done i'm done with that i want to continue with the thought the one of the curses was that the trees are not going to bear fruit that the land is not going to be so easy to work so this is you know we want to take a few things out of this interview not just to hear some good words of torah if if you don't apply something after a class and why did you come to the class so we're going to have to conclude a few things when we leave the the interview if you want to already take the first conclusion then we have to observe shabbat that's how we do the tikkun that correction of the entire world that's why we of the nation of jews we have to correct the tikkun by observing shabbat and andrew is not allowed to observe shabbat but this is first thing that we want to take from today it wasn't planned but that's what hashem put in my mouth that yeah we all have to observe shabbat the right way that's why the talmud says if we observe shabbat we can receive the redemption right away by the way i know many people are trying to make a big awareness let's do a global shabbat yeah if we observe shabbat will come right away so from that we already can sidetrack and say okay let me observe shabbat in my way better how can i be much more shabbat observant next week and for that i have to learn but mainly i want to focus today on the thoughts because i believe that not only in our desire to hasten the girla it will affect and help many people in their daily life because most people when i look at people and i can tap into their thoughts i feel bad for them for the jungle that's going on in their mind and people should not have these jungle of their thought of thoughts in their mind people need to have what's called menu fish the soul has to become and relaxed and no worries and no anxieties and no fears so it's not only to bring the redemption closer it's also to be a much more happier calm successful fulfilled individual and it all is rooted into their thoughts the razon gilroy zone the revelation of the wheel that's not in our level that's let's wait for mashir to come but right now i need to go back into the root this is called which is the uh the back part of the brain of the intellectual part which is developed from hochmanbina and again i don't want to get into too many terms that are going to be hard to explain i rather keep it practical but the thought is the root of everything if i'm sad it's because a thought rooted that if i'm happy i'm excited so this is just to explain this is the intro to explain the next stage where i actually want to move on to to how we can apply that when it comes to the redemption now really when you want to think of what is the source of everything everybody wants to know the source of something the source of everything is what's called razon this is the wheel that's the source of everything now how do i get what i want if i look at something oh i want that the thought will start developing how do i get that now our sages say they quote a verse from the torah and they say that is what the thought is and the verse goes a constant fire should be burned on the altar it should never turn out this is our thoughts the thoughts are constantly running in my mind and they don't stop for one second and the majority of my thoughts is bad thoughts evil thoughts unclear thoughts unhealthy thoughts now what does this do this is causing i'll tell it in hebrew this is called the nuance beneficia emotion that is not needed in my nephesh in my soul now how do i control that can you control really your thoughts yeah you can control your thoughts you know how what are really thoughts all the bad thoughts that are going on in my mind is desires and wills that were never fulfilled what's the solution the very simple solution because most people how they look at the world is the wrong way how they look at the world and again the term in hebrew is fisat olam how i look at the world and how i analyze most people they don't analyze the world in the right way what is the solution very simple don't want don't have any will but i need things but the sentence goes a little bit further don't want what doesn't belong to you want what belongs to you what doesn't belong to me don't go after this is the root of many many problems that i want what he has then going back to the same story the serpent he wanted it's not yours this will develop hate this will develop jealousy this will develop anger this will develop disagreements oh and now we're back in exile because i want something that doesn't belong to me minimize your thoughts when you minimize your thoughts your mind is calm you're happy you are relaxed now you can operate and make a change in the world now what is the best way of defining it in two words let go people say something to you let go so he said asthma big deal so he said but he did this and that so what but he did this to me asma so what why should i carry anger why should i carry resentment jealousy i'm the one who's getting hurt from that now where is all this rooted it's all in my thought i look at a person and right away i will slash him with my judgmental feelings why does he do this why did he do that you know the balchampto says something very very interesting he says when you want to know your status in shaman in the heavens am i now in a good light in the heavens or bad light he says focus on how you think of people now let me give you one example remember you will see and this is brought by the baal shem tov not that i'm saying that he says you're looking at a person right now doing a sin what is the first thought that comes to your mind how dare he how dare he pick up the phone in the middle of the prayer what are you doing right now you're judging him from doing a sin what is the balchimto says you are in the realm of deen in chamine why because you're judging if you right away yeah now if you right away look at the person and say you know maybe he's a doctor maybe his wife is pregnant and she's due i don't know then you're in the realm of of cressed of kindness now to elaborate on what i'm saying most of the opinions that we have this is called that is wrong opinions it's because what people told me is because what i speculate what i think to go back to the first exile that we experience is the famous exile of egypt this is called the exile of egypt he says what was the exile of egypt we were slaves there what is slavery slavery means darkness what is the concept or the theme of egypt is the king who controlled the land which his name is the kabbalistic term for parole is ah i'm the dot the back part of the dot that's why his name is paul because if you switch the letters it brings you a word called orif orif is the back the back of the neck now what does the neck do it separates the thought from the heart what is called mohrin and regis the neck is this little i mean you can't see it with my beard but the neck is very thin and i have this big lamp here and then another big lump so the the parabol is separating my thoughts to my emotions and is also you can read it as per pe means a mouth and is evil what is the power that overc is pesach talking positive this is another one of the biggest roots of our problem is the is the pe is the mouth at the end when i'll give a little bit of a solution then we'll see that the mouth is a big responsibility the problem with me time and by the way i'm sure everybody remembers from reading it in the haggadah a few months ago behold something somebody comes here to destroy us and what as it says every generation a person has to see himself like as if he left egypt i didn't leave egypt egypt was three thousand four hundred years ago the balance says not any generation every day you have to see yourself like as if you went out of my time because mitzrayim comes around the word in hebrew made sal mitzar is a limit something that limits me and i have to go out of my limitation out of this darkness out of the slavery out of the way how i'm thinking of things the wrong way most of the people how they think of other people is wrong they judge them wrong they see a situation they're completely judging the situation in the wrong way now this will start building emotions bad thoughts bad feelings now you know now it's very applicable in israel we're reading in the diaspora they're reading it's talking about a certain idol idolatry it's called peor peron was one of the most severest idol worship that they did and look at the name this was one of the most severest idol worship now what is means in hebrew power is a gap when there's a gap between the thought and the heart the thought is thinking one way and whoo there's a huge gap between my thoughts and my heart the intellect and the emotion the tikkun that i need to do is again the dots like i said before the war that we're going into goku magog this is the war of thoughts it's all about the thoughts if you know how to focus on your thoughts how to pure your thoughts the baal shem tov says that we are our soul is dressed with three garments thought speech and action and these garments are nourished from the world above from what is called a chamber a heihal if i have a bad thought it means it was directed to the chamber of impurity if i have a good thought it means it was directed to the chamber of purity a chamber of holiness and a chamber of impurity i decide where i'm getting the the energy from so the most important thing that one needs to to apply when they want to take this entire approach is you can never lie to yourself when i became observant it took me three years to put a yamacon uh many people heard my my personal story if you didn't then go and hear it i lecture all around the world there's videos online that you can say you can't find it but nevertheless i explained there that after i woke up took me three years to become observant because i could first of all physically i was 27 to become observant overnight is almost impossible but more than that it was very hard for me to become observant when i lie and i cheat and i slander and my thoughts are impure and my speech is in pure how can i praise hashem when this mouth is cursing and slandering so i took me about two years two and a half years to clean the system and the first thing that bothered me is how i spoke every word that came out of my mouth was another nice word uh and anybody can relate with that most people just to give you an example most people will bump their leg on the side of the table what are they going to say and not nice word why don't you say ouch why you have to say something say i most people say i don't want to even say what they say the a word the b where the c why what did the table do to you what good would it do that now you said a not nice word somebody cuts you in the road you're driving some machine cuts you you curse that person his mother his father you know the mother's profession every what did the person do to maybe he's in a rush maybe his wife is giving labor where is this dirt coming from so i i i had to refine my system the biggest mountain i had to climb in becoming observant is to stop lying i was a liar i lied in business i lied in relationships i lied to anything that moved and i know a lot of people don't like hearing it but most people are liars you lie to people around you you lie to god like as if he doesn't know and worse of that you lie to yourself and a person that constantly lies everything is already disoriented the torah warns us for many things don't kill don't commit adultery don't eat meat in the dairy there's one thing that the torah tells me run away from it from any type of lie run away why because any type of reality that is not the truth puts you in that reality of deception and that's the reality of an exile i'll give you a quick story a funny story there is a chassidut there's many different hasidic groups some of them are known some of them are not known the known ones of course the chabad and bresliven guru or whatever a lot of them that are not so known there is a khasidud it's called kotsk okay everyone has their thing their shtick the hassidut of corks their theme is emit just admit emit truth truth there's a story that once a hasid of cokes spent a shabbat with another hasid comes the friday night meal the other hasid starts reading what's called the le chamichut kucha all these kavanaugh this kabbalistic meditation to accept the ducha of the meal and the khasid from court says oh look at that chicken i can't wait to get my mouth on this chicken and the other khasi says that's what you're thinking about the chicken okay he didn't say that he was thinking that the next day comes the the shabbat meal the other hasid starts doing meditation doing all these kabbalistic meditations to accept the holiness of the meal and the hasid vamps says wow look at that i can't wait to get my mouth on this chunk and the guy is like what are you talking about comes to dashley sheet the third meal the other hasids the same thing starts meditating at kinosuda prepare the meal for the queen and the other hasid says wow look at that fish i can't wait to put my sink my teeth into that fish finally the khasi says i can't take it anymore what kind of a hasid you are all that you're thinking about is food he's like isn't that what you're thinking of i just say the truth you thinking of the meat exactly like me but you're saying oh no now let's pretend that i'm so holy i'm just being truthful yes i'm hungry i want to eat the chunt so the truth is the most powerful characteristic that can take you to to the greatest destinations this world is called the shikra in aramaic the world of deception the world above is called alma the the world of emit that with the world of truth when people tell me can you tell me your near-death experience and summarize it sometimes i bump into people in the street they tell me hey yeah you're the one right you you died and yeah can you tell me about it no it's a three-hour lecture just give me the short version there's no short version but if i have to summarize the entire experience what i need to take from it for myself and give it over it's all about emit truth with guard your lips from evil and your tongue from saying any type of deception it's all about truth now of course you want to be truthful and honest to people around you and of course you want to be honest to hashem be truthful to yourself if you're not truthful to yourself if you're not honest with yourself sorry to tell you you're not going to do anything you're not going to be able to proceed you're not going to able to achieve anything in this world and definitely not bring the redemption faster so if i want to kind of conclude what i'm saying the problem with most people to make it in simple words so to say the problem with most people is that they're looking at other people they're not looking at themselves stop looking at other people mind your own business look at yourself don't focus on other people he said this she said that he said this focus on yourself where do i need to be refined what am i doing wrong you know what's interesting i have to tell you something amazing what is the name of the summit the geula summit right you know what the numerical value of the word goula the numerical value of the word goula is 45. that's interesting now what other term is has the same numerical value live echad one heart when was the only time in history that something miraculous happened in front of our eyes the giving of the torah of course what is the torah says they stood there ishahad believed one person one heart this is called unity i know you're different from me i know you do you talk different from me you eat different for me you dress different for me i don't like you but we still have to be united so what if i'm different from you so we want a gilda we have to have le vicad you know what's more interesting i'll tell you that hashem has many names the famous one of course is uk and then above and okay there's four names that they derive out of this name and this is called shema shambanch and sagin 50 52 45 52 63 and 72 iron bits shema we're not going to get into that that's a very long explanation but how do you write it you don't write you then then hey and then above and right and then you write hey and then alif you it's called milo yo this is the numerical value of of the of the name that is called shema interestingly we have three characters in our past that for me are my heroes while they're my heroes happens to be and this is not uh this is my master's gerhappadi my last name is anava people think that i invented it people think that's my personal name this is my our original name it actually goes back seven generations but nevertheless anava means humble the three heroes in our history are three men that they were very very humble the first one is avraham avino who is the father of all nations and what did he say about himself i am dust and ashes i'm nothing the next one is moshe rabbenu what does he say about himself i am nothing i don't have an existence and the third one is david king david who says i'm a worm i'm not even a human this is all reached greatness because they were humble we just saw an encounter two weeks ago between martial ability he would think that moshe rabbin would cut korach's head off the torah says moshe rabin who put his head down he cried he fell on his face and he started crying right maybe i did something wrong maybe kawa is right that's a moshe rabbenu so what is moshe says this meme hey this shema this shows anava humility and being humble now another word that has a numerical value of 45 is the one that needs to do the tikkun it's the name adam adam richon he brought the the blemish he needs to do the tikkun you know what's more interesting here i did a quick research you know where mashiach is coming from mashiach is coming from klippa mashiach is coming from the worst of the worst of the worst if you backtrack the dynasty or the lineage where mashiach comes from he comes from forbidden relations from lot and his daughter that forbidden relations from that came a whole nation of moab is coming from where from lot lot is 45. so you know what's another thing i'll tell you another thing that is interesting how is most of the torah being spread today in the world through a platform called youtube youtube is also 45. so with that said we want the redemption we need we have to have unity we have to have levichat one heart i know you are ashkenazi and i'm svardi i know that i know that you are white and i'm black and you think this and i think that asma so what the world was created with separation this is called olama peru the world that everything is separated but we want gillah le vichad one heart you have to overcome my disagreements and my thoughts and again it all goes back to my thoughts because i would look now in another person in a show and he prays like this what will i think i don't pray like that i pray like this and my hat goes like that and his hand goes like this we're different that's my thought the thought will birth an emotion i hate him why do you hate why are you angry so somebody said something against you you know the famous story with david i told you my three heroes david david is a famous story he was the king he's going on the path a certain individual his name is he was from the house of sha'al comes and he curses him who made you king you are a murderer look how much blood is on your hands and he's cursing and then stoning him next to david standing the bodyguard the head of the army avishai bensuya pulls out a sword right away and he tells david please let me cut his head off going against the king loving america's calm tells him put your sword back hashem told him to curse hashem sent him to curse me i need to get some rebuke i need to get a slap to my face so we are so angry judgmental full of hate and resentment why because my thoughts are totally out of control my thoughts are completely in a mess in a haze purify your thoughts nourish healthy thoughts suddenly you don't hate anybody you don't see bad in other people you judge people favorably you don't have self of resentment and anger and judgmental so you're different so you said so you did asma big deal i'm different and i better am i any better no i'm not so it all boils down that's how i see it our thoughts are the most powerful tool that we have certain people they're so powerful with their thoughts that their thoughts are more stronger than actions that's how some people can reach to such a level that i can change the world only with my thoughts i'm sure you're aware of the famous saying the hasidic saying think good and it will be good now it's not so easy to do what do you mean think good and it will be good yeah you know what the bashamtho says in the place were you thinking that's where you are the balcheon says a famous story one time he was sitting in a bad knesset in a synagogue and they're finishing praying he turns around to a certain individual tells him oh shalom shalom you're greeting me hello i'm here the whole hour he's like how was your trip to abroad abroad i didn't go abroad i was here the whole hour says your body was here but while you were praying your mind you were in the vacation in mexico wherever your mind is that's where you are so if i know how to control my mind and to focus on you know what mashiach is here i don't see it because i'm too busy judging other people if i know how to go back to the root of the problem then i have my solution so forget about now my own personal life that i'm calm and happy and healthy but more than that the world is a chaos and if i want to hasten the redemption i want to be you know what i want i'm going to sound very selfish right now i want to get a handshake from mashiach telling me thank you mr anava for doing what you were doing to make me come faster i want an order a signature an autograph see i want a selfie okay i that's what i want i want a selfie with mashiach but we all have to i'm not different than anybody else i'm not smarter i'm not bigger everybody has their role and we are so distracted that yet you know why because the second mashiach comes he slaughters he pulls out us knife and he slaughters him after the red heifer maybe before the red heifer yet doesn't want to be slaughtered so what is he doing right now the lazer he's in our thoughts how is he getting in our thoughts like i said before the war of screens i see i have a nuclear bomb in my hand and constantly i'm seeing things videos clips it's in my thoughts i want that oh i want to look like that oh i wanted this i want that somebody sends you a picture on their instagram because they're in a beautiful beach in thailand oh i want to be there how come he's there and not me i want to be there and all you're thinking about okay how am i going to get money so i have to do business how am i going to do business let me cheat so these screens are very dangerous i mean on the other hand they have unbelievable potential we can spread torah all over the world why do you think youtube was created to spread torah and the story not to watch dancing cats and people falling from skateboards youtube was created to spread torah around the world technology was created that i can sit now in svat you can sit now i believe in yugoslavia right you're in russia yes and the viewers are in bangkok in sydney in new york in cancun and in chile that's why we have technology that i can teach torah and everybody can hear what i have to say at the same moment you think rabbi akiva had that audience can you imagine rabbi akiva having a facebook account broadcasting his teachings so everything was given to us hand it over to us do something good with it anything can be used for good you can take nuclear power and enlighten a whole city you can take nuclear power and destroy the same city so when we want to summarize it in simple words what's the root of everything my thought if i know how to tap into this system to hack into my thoughts i am the master of my domain and i want to give later on some advice what one needs to do i was very inspired in this whole topic of thoughts but a very special uh rabbi he he's known as the rebbe from piazzetsna and excuse me yeah many people don't know him many people didn't hear of him his name is kelownimus kalmich he he lived at the time of the holocaust he was murdered in the holocaust he all his books he wrote in the holocaust you read the books you can't understand how a person in a death camp can write stuff like that his writings were somehow miraculously found after the holocaust genius besides that we know he had a kodesh divine inspiration but nevertheless there is a mama there is a discourse that he's teaching and it calls it the silence of your thoughts and it's not long it's very simple to read and and he explains there very simply that most people they have a jungle in their thoughts that's the reality and we're not being judgmental and we're not pointing fingers we're just stating a a reality and with with the desire to help most people they have a jungle of thoughts in their mind they worry anxiety fears depression thoughts of anger thoughts of resentment jealousy it's all in your thoughts a reality is a thought and he says the difference between us and a lunatic is that the lunatic does what he thinks we don't i think things but i don't do it and anyways he has a whole uh um i don't have to call it the method uh uh meditation form and it's called inyan silencing your thoughts it's unbelievable if we have time later maybe i'll read a little bit out of the mao and if not then i highly recommend to go to get the book it's called derek the path of the kingdom means the right way to go on and it's called it's very short two pages but the point behind it is that if i know how to silence my thoughts i mean what is one of the worst things that we have in our generation we started learning here uh the whole topic of there's a lot of le shanara going a lot of slandering a lot of gossiping and it's devastating it's killing lives it's destroying lives so we decided to start learning it in a very thorough way in the introduction that we made for the class i was quoting that the talmud says why was the first temple destroyed everybody will tell you idol worship forbidden relations and and and bloodshed since the sin was revealed then the length of the exile was revealed when they left yerushalayim and they went to exile the prophet told them 70 years you're making a u-turn and that's what happened what's the cause of this destruction of the second temple baseless hate that's what we know the talmud says it means that's why the temple was destroyed so the tikkun like i told you before with pera it's the pace the mouth even part of the tikkun that we need to do to control our thought is through our mouth by the way but a big problem that we have in our generation is slandering and lying around means to to talk truth about another person but doesn't know that has no benefit now why would i talk to shout out about somebody because i'm thinking bad about him why because i'm jealous because he's more successful he's more popular he has a more attractive wife he has a nicer car so it's developing these emotions now how would it come down from thought to speech needless to say when it goes down to action that's already bad news so the point what we want to take from today is how do i control my thoughts and i need to control my thoughts because if i know how to change my thought pattern i think completely different about the world i see things in a positive way i judge people the right way i don't get angry i don't get upset i don't curse needless to say that i'm a much happier and healthier person but i changed the reality of the world because right now the reality of the world is distorted based on my mind he's left wing he's right wing republican democrats ashkenazis faraday this is not the the core or the root of the world but it again i repeat myself it's all in the mind it's in the thoughts so you know it's funny i was in the israeli army in the israeli army there is a term a colbagosh it's all in your mind we would sometime go on a journey for for training 120 kilometers you go with 50 kilos on you of gear just now walk this is a typical thing and it's almost not human i call barros it's all in your mind you can make it you can do it and you know what it's true it's on your mind if you know you can do something you will do it so is your method do you teach people how to know i'm very curious how you after your death experience how you did that two years of processing to change your thoughts if you feel it's relevant uh it's not easy we actually decided amongst the students around here that we're going to start and initiate a series or a course how to do chuba chuvas not to put a yama con that anybody can do and to grow a beard okay i i never like shaving anyways chuva is not my external part you know one of the shiva that i went to when i said before you read an old bio it's a very short i actually were in four different yeshivats and one of the shiva that i went to they told me when i came in you have to wear black suits and i said don't i don't own a black suit i don't have a black suit well you can't learn here are you teaching me how to dress or are you teaching me how to be a good jew no we have everybody has to wear the black suits so i said so this is not the yeshiva for me i'm not going to change my attire now because of you i don't have money even to buy a black suit so they took me to the head of the shiva the roshi shiva and i told him i'm sorry i came to learn torah not how to dress and if you don't accept me because i'm not wearing a black suit then i'm sorry this is shiva it's not a good shidduch it's not a match i'll go to a different yeshiva i told them i came here to duchuba to learn how to pray to learn how to learn torah to learn how to be a good jew how to repent for my sins i don't think my jacket makes a difference and he told me you can stay and learn here so for a whole year i wore regular clothes i wore denim pants and a blue shirt and sometimes a green shirt and my external parts my my garments they're not my chuva my chuva means to repent but also means to return the hay of hashem hey to return the damage and by the way this hay that we're talking about this is firat of that it's returning it back to its source we damage the dot we damage the intellect now fix it don't try to fix what is not broken fix what is broken the broke the what's broken is the dot is the pattern of thought interestingly again you read in the bio and it's not far from the truth that is the truth when i was secular young man i hated religious people why did a religious person did something bad to me no because in school they told me to hate them they told me you go to the army you're going to risk your life if they're not they're going to sit in an air-conditioned yeshiva so i grew up resenting and hating haredi orthodox religious hasidic men because they don't go to the army and i did and i was i was brainwashed i'm sorry to tell you i was brainwashed to hate religious people now when i change the thought hey i actually like you because i changed the the root now i like you you teach me torah you teach me good manners you teach me good characteristics you teach me how to get go to the next world suddenly the hate changed to love because the thought so it took me about two two and a half years close to three years i mean i'm saying very general i had to change the whole pattern of thought before i pray excuse me because it's clearly a big big transformational process it was uh not easy but i came up with all these all these little actions that i would do i'll give you one example out of many i figured out and that like i told you with the same the same way of thinking that you can't lie anymore when i woke up the thing that hit me the most you cannot lie anymore it was echoing echoing in my mind be very careful to come back here to the heavenly court again be very careful sometimes i want to educate my kids i will maybe give them a little slap on their tuchus or i will tell them be very careful not to do it again if you're going to do it again you're going to get it so i got this slap on my tuchus in the heavenly card and they told me be very careful so the thing that was echoing in my mind don't lie don't can't lie anymore you can't lie anymore i can tell you that's my personal experience people tell me what is the best way to enter hashem's heart to give charity to be charitable to learn torah and my answer is the same don't lie hashem can't send liars you know where we see it four weeks ago for us was four weeks for the dance for over three weeks we read parashat shlach means send spies into the land of israel when the spies came back they spoke leshon they slandered the land of israel and they got punished i don't know if you noticed the only time that god never forgave us is that sin god forgave us for the golden calf god forgave us for going against moshe all that there were ten sins in the desert god forgive us for all these sins for one sin he never forgave is the sin of the spies why hashem says don't talk to don't lie about my land this is my land this is eresakodish don't lie about my land and you going and lying about my land excuse me the whole world is lying about this land that's it's it's one of the biggest global lies that there is right now and and hashem says you you thought you lied about my land that's it i'm not go i'm not gonna forgive you and he never forgave us for the sin so my understanding is don't lie don't lie hashem hates liars he can't stand liars be honest you messed up i'm sorry three times a day our sages taught us to bang on our heart and to say asham gazano i have stolen i have slandered i've taken admit hashem says i'll forgive admit don't lie don't live in denial it wasn't me i didn't say so admit when you admit then you're ready to do suga so one of the first things that i needed to do is to stop lying so you know what i did you're asking a little bit of the methods i bought myself a little notebook that cost me 99 cents and i bought a pen that cost me a dollar and every time that a lie came out of my mouth i pressed the pause button i stopped and i wrote down in this 99 cents book what was the line and what time did i say it came the end of the day at the time i wasn't saying but the bedtime shma but i made about some type of a reborn efficient account i would open this notebook to find 200 lies 150 lies of nonsense nonsense not lies now that i have to save somebody nonsense i'll give you one example remaining this is very common people are driving on their way and they're late to a meeting the person that is waiting for them is calling them now they see on the collard either the number they don't answer like as if the universe followed them suddenly you don't answer the person calls the second time and the third time you ignore the person what do you think the person will not talk to you then you finally answer the call where are you says the person he's angry you're late you're looking at the gps the gps tells you you're there in 90 minutes i'm there in five minutes no you're not you're liar you're there 19 minutes so i would write down every lie and every time that i would say a lie i would catch myself no no no no no no it's not the truth you know so repeating this months i started cutting off i would come to say a lie i would stop no no that's a lie i can't say that back off and it's about how you change your pattern of thought we think it's okay to lie it's not okay to lie we think it's okay to slander another person no it's not it's a so if i change how i'm thinking then i see things completely different so the whole pattern the whole way how i was refining myself so to say is you have to go back to the original thought uproot it and let a new thought come again we're going to the concept of the tree cut the tree new branches will come out i'm in no way a farmer but i know that if you cut a little bit of the branches more grows and even better healthier so when you go to the root like i told you when i used to smoke all i did is i went to a session of hypnotism they hypnotized me go back to the subconscious dismantle there the thought that smoking is okay that's it you stop smoking so the method here is really you have to go to the root of things and change how you think and the easiest example is like i told you i resented religious people and i hated them and i hated religious people completely exactly what rabbi akiva says in the talmud if you would bring me would bite him like a donkey that's what i'll be akiva said why do you want to bite the person i had distorted thoughts about religious people i thought religious people are these aliens they're dressed weird they talk weird they behave weird i never had the thought maybe i'm weird a secular person looks at the religious person oh he's weird he has hair sticking out from his ears he has a bushy look how he looks maybe you're the weird one who who said so society defines to people what to think i'll give you another example in a minute i give a little watch it's so true we're all totally brainwashed and don't know it don't see it bingo i'll give you another example i do a lot of counseling to to young people they need to get married unfortunately this is another epidemic in our generation people don't get married they're picky they're whatever and there's a lot of lying when it comes to this how many times they come to make a shidduch a match don't tell her my age what do you think that one day she's not going to open your passport and see your age why would you want to lie to the person on the first date about your age how many women tell me don't tell him my real age tell him i'm 41 but you're 47. i don't want him to know that i'm old don't you think he's going to figure that out that one day how bad are you going to look when he figures out two years into the match you're not 41 i wrote on the birthday wishes happy 41th birthday you're 47 what you lied to me now you shatter the entire foundation of trust in this in this relationship come right away and say the truth what are you afraid of the truth so when it comes to marriages the problem with marriages in our generation is people watch movies and they think that marriage is about holding hands honey i love you and walking into the sunsets and hugging that's not marriage i don't know maybe marriage couple married couples that are walking into the sunset hugging each other usually is honey where's my food and not honey why didn't you iron my clothes why did you do this why are you talking to her so society defines to people what is marriage what is marital relations what is but it's all wrong this is not marriage i also thought marriage is finding a gorgeous woman and we're gonna dine and whine and go to cancun this is not marriage if you squeeze in a vacation once in five years you're lucky but the point is that it's the the the media in society it's brainwashing us to a point that i'll give you another we'll go we'll completely sidetrack for a second we're experiencing right now in our generation unbelievable anti-semitism especially in europe and now in america hashemi regime what's going on there you know that the majority of anti-semitism is brainwashed people you know how many people that i meet and they're like oh you know up until i met you i hated jews now i see you know you're actually a nice guy so why do you hate me you know how many times i travel around the world people look at me like oh jew you don't even know me you know that maybe if you'll get hurt now in a car accident i will be the one that comes to help you instead of your friends why are you judging me because how i look so our thoughts are distorted from day one i have a class where i teach the severity of lying and mainly the class is about emunah our entire connection and hashem and existence in this world is based on one thread that is called means to believe most people don't really believe in hashem if they would believe in hashem they would be completely different people why people don't believe not because they're bad people they're good people everybody's good people they have a good shama the problem i'll tell you what's the problem it's very easy to believe when things are easy when things are hard the emunah flies out of the window i'll give you one example out of many one time you know we all become belchuva the first year or two we have an easy run hashem tells you everything's for free two years three years into the chuva chuvas suddenly you'll start getting bashed by the kadosh bogo so as a quick story there was once an individual he became jose bichuva became observant after two years the heavenly committee decided to get together listen we're going to send him a test he's already observing for two years let's test him with something okay everybody started saying let's test him with the maybe send him an attractive woman to distract him no no we do that to everybody uh how about we testing with money okay let's test him with money oh in favor everybody in the heavenly committee they raise their hands okay the next day the guy loses five dollars you know what was his reaction thank god hashem akoletova everything is good capac it's an atonement of my sins hashem you are amazing thank you so much and shamim in the heavens wow look at him they pick up the numbers you know 9.9 look how he passed the test with flying colors one member of the committee says come on guys five dollars bump it up the next day he loses 50 dollars the same reaction i call me everything is good everything that hashem does is amazing everything that hashem does is amazing the same guy from the committee says fifty dollars is nothing give him a test the next day he loses fifty thousand dollars suddenly it's not from hashem not everything is good this is not kaparita no this is not a tournament for sin hashem why are you doing this to me i'm becoming observant this is not fair suddenly all you do is you add a few zeros up and then muna flies out of the window why don't we have a muna we are called why don't we have them now you know we are built with them or not we are born with a in my system why don't i have a muna because when i reach to a level when i'm two years old give or take and i have a little bit of common sense you know what happens my mom lies to me if you're not going to fix the room you're not getting ice cream and then i don't fix the room and i still got ice cream huh mommy's a liar and then my father lies to me and then my teacher lies to me and then people in school lie to him and before you know it i'm seven years old i don't believe anyone go now to my six-year-old try to tell her anything she'll question you right away and then when you become 13 14 15 you don't believe nothing why because society parents educators educating system don't lie to you so the emunah it crumbles and it gets hidden in the depth of my heart now go believe that there's a god now go believe that mashiach can come any second if you i tell people is coming and but it all is in the thought go to the root unwire it or decode it however you want to say it put a new thought there oh suddenly the band doesn't look so bad suddenly the good is actually not that good you know for many years i thought that coca-cola is good it's healthy it's tasty who told you that it's good you know you go to the supermarket all healthy natural present not natural ingredients no they're not it's not natural if it's on the shelf it's not natural by the way but we are lied we are lied by the the the the food companies by the food industry you go into the supermarket 90 of the food is not really food it's plastic it's chemicals it's gmo all natural no preservative oh no preservative yeah it's sitting on the shelf for half a year but there's no preservatives there and people buy that so we are so to say controlled we are like machines we are controlled by the media one actor goes online and she puts her hair like this the next day everybody's with her hair like that why she did it so the point to make long story short the point is to go back to the root change it not easy but first of all the first foundation is amit truth don't believe anything that everybody says follow the truth run after the truth look for the truth now we're ready excuse me you said something you said something in the very beginning which i think really goes like the subtext of everything you're saying which is that we are we start out perfect the world started out perfect you know and perfection here machine is here is here our own perfectionist is available and we just have to reveal it uncover things i think that's also the core one of the core um correct beliefs that one would want to wire into the brain when you know that underneath you know that what's covering you isn't good and what is what is being covered is good i think that's very motivating for people i think it's really important because people get stuck on the uh you know good you know it's really about unveiling the perfection you can make the perfect more perfect than it is you can damage it but you can cover it now our job is to reveal it and we can do it as an individual and we can do it as a global effort but the point is to bring the truth out the torah is the truth when everybody went against moshe rabino three weeks ago in parashat everybody went against moshe rabino when the sons of korah fell into the pit a little cliff came out and saved them because they did what did they scream moshe that's the truth now a lot of people don't like admitting to the truth because then it makes me look so not so great and i don't want to not look so great i don't want you to have more more power more success more money but you have to face the truth but i do believe that first of all on a very personal level just for your own personal growth and for your own peace of mind and for your own sanity the thoughts have to be organized the right way most people will give you another example out of many and you have to be honest with yourself at least if they want at least the ones who are listening now how fast do you fall asleep do you fall asleep after an hour after tossing and turning or do you fall asleep after five minutes or do you fall asleep after five seconds the faster you fall asleep that shows how clear your mind is if you takes you a long time to fall asleep something is not at ease there something is bothering you you're thinking why are you thinking at two o'clock in the morning it's not the time to think it's time to sleep right now turn the switch down so if the thoughts are pure clean and they're not bothered time to switch bet you tell hashem i will give you myself lights out go to sleep that's the test if you're worried you have anxiety fears oh you did something you owe somebody money you hurt somebody's feelings you might not know it in your conscience but if i speak lashonda about somebody and i now destroy that person i will come up with all the excuses why what i did is justiful i will justify myself but my subconscious will tell me who are you kidding what you did was wrong and that person is suffering the subconscious i will not hear it in my frontal part of my thoughts the subconscious will tell me that so then you know what in the middle of the night i can't sleep i'm bothered what's bothering me i don't know i'm perfect something is bothering me so i will not sleep well i will not eat well and i won't digest well needless to say that i will start becoming sick why something in the corn than a shama is bothering me because i slandered somebody and i lied to another and i used him and i misled him but in the my existence no no no i i did everything perfect i will come up with all the excuses why what i did is okay he will tell me everything all the loopholes in why what i said is fine but again it's all boils down to the same pla how do you go back to the root now change it change it not for nothing i don't know who who to attribute to some people say it was the semester there some people say it's about shame though there's different opinions who said that think good and it will be good but it doesn't matter who said it in the beginning when i heard that what do you think of it will be good that's kind of a childish slogan no it's not you can change something in your thoughts if you believe if the level of emunah is real you are untouchable you know our sages go ahead you're describing um i hope i can reach towards you're describing a world of reality like the world wherever shield is here where everything's already done where you're already who you're meant to be and it's just covered up and then you're describing you're going into the idea of falsehood versus mn versus truth and i mean what i can see and hearing from what you're saying is that the more we leave the world of falsehood that's designed to protect our ego or whatever the more we're actually in the world of reality and the world of reality is already all good it's not you know just i want to bring that that back text you know that context of what you're saying that um yeah it's like you're stepping from one chamber to another chamber every time you turn your back on something that's not quite true and knowing some that's more true you can change the reality sorry no i'm saying you can actually change the reality with your into a different thoughts which i i guess that holds up to physical level yeah it reveals itself yeah a hundred percent but our mind is so powerful i like sharing always the same example that i do a lot my grandmother may she rest in peace she was a very special individual she survived the holocaust she went through a very hard life but nevertheless she had two qualities two characteristics that if more people will have we would have already the redemption a long time ago she was the these two characteristics that she was always grateful to hashem and she wasn't the most observant woman in the world and she was always always happy why am i saying that she was diagnosed when she was 86 years old with cancer the doctor told her you maybe have three months if you do chemo maybe six months so she told them you're not putting me in a in a microwave you're not keem or anything you're not doing anything goodbye let me die quietly every day she would dance and sing and happy six years she was she was she was alive she died when she was 92. six years medicine and doctors you have three months she was like you telling me when i'm going to die you are going to tell me no he's going to tell me when and right now i'm happy for every day that he's giving me and i'm going to be grateful and happy nope the doctors will tell you don't have any pain every couple months there she would go to treat to be tested they told me you don't have pain i have a little bit of pain in my stomach i think maybe i'm hungry you have cancer no no no so again a strong mind you sometimes you see people in times of despair how people survive unbelievable things why it comes from emunah is way beyond common sense and a strong healthier muna will actually nourish nourish the right thoughts our thoughts are most of our thoughts are impure really and that's the sad reality i'm not going to give too many examples or quotes but the thoughts are not so pure that's why the rebbe from piazzetsun says shem if you know what goes in other people's minds sometimes you're talking to a person you think they're nice and and loving and caring and they're thinking so much bad about you but the point is that if you know how to control your thoughts and some people think that it's impossible you know they heard once a story there is a concept in judaism that is called a foreign thought and where do you experience a foreign thought mainly when you pray you want to focus on your praying suddenly you're thinking of some random thing where is that thought coming from this is called a marshal a random thought that came of it's actually a foreign thought so there's a story once the student came to his rabbi and told him you know today i was praying and i had a foreign thought about so this and that so he told him that's not a foreign thought that was your thought the thoughts of the prey are foreign to you because you're thinking of what you're thinking you're not thinking of the prayer so the other thought is the real thought and the prayer is the foreign thought so i'm not saying it's easy and it's definitely not can be cannot be given in a quick session but what i'm interested in is to at least bring awareness and if i mean people need to leave this interview with something after all if we if somebody doesn't leave with something why did you come or why did we bothered i you know our sages say hamas the action is the most important learn for two hours if you didn't apply something what did you learn for gaddafi the talmud the learning is greater when you apply it if you don't apply it so what if you sit in yeshiva for two hours or 12 hours if you don't know how to apply it i call it the chihuahua syndrome and some people don't relate but there is a restaurant in america it's called taco bell and taco bell had a little dog a chihuahua that you put on the dashboard and when you stop the car it goes like that so a lot of people have the chihuahua syndrome i talk and they oh wow very smart man i love what he says but while you're nodding your head you're gonna get a neck ache take what i said or any other beautiful learning and torah that you apply it apply two percent of what you learn apply it you'll see a massive change in your life that the focus of our life is to bring the redemption people tell me oh i need a solution i have a mahalal pray for mashiach i have problems with my livelihood pray for mashiach i can't get married pray for mashiach that's the solution you don't get it the solution is mashiach there's no other solution especially now the rope is already pray for mashiach that's the solution how do i apply it it starts with me how am i projecting my energy to the world and again you need to start controlling your thoughts thinking think of your thoughts analyze your thoughts a bad thought comes stop press the pause button why did this thought come why do i hate this person right now oh because 20 years ago somebody told me that this this community is not good for now wait a minute let's go back to the thought what poisoned your thought 20 years ago why do you don't like this person because so-and-so told me that he did this and that so what if so-and-so said that who said that it's true go and make your own analogy go and question so again not easy but can be done i believe there are four steps how the thoughts can be reached to a place of purity i'm quickly going to go through them maybe later we can elaborate the first one is what i said is this method that the rebbe from piersetsna teaches which is called indiana is to know how to quieten your thoughts and i'll give it very very briefly he says that once a day the same way that you pray the same way that you do hit the body take 20 minutes out of your day and he gives a very interesting analogy when constantly the shrine is hovering over my head there's a glue there's a revelation above my head what is stopping me from receiving this guillotine my ego my yeshut my existence when am i able to receive something from above when i sleep because when i sleep i don't want anything all the prophets besides moshe rabbenu when did they get the prophecy when they slept when i sleep there's no desire i don't think of anything i don't want anything i'm out on the bed that's why when my thoughts my desires are numb that's when i get the godly revelation numb your thoughts how do you numb your thoughts you take 20 minutes out of your day you shut your phone you this you shut any distraction and you thinking of your thoughts and you're meditating meditating on your thoughts now you don't want bad thoughts to come in a bad thought comes in you push it away what do you meditate you start chanting in your mind holy verses you don't say it with your mouth this is all thoughts and you internalizing the greatness of hashem hashem you are meditating on a good thought the result is you push the bad the good comes in you want the good the bad to be pushed put some good in now i'm giving the method very very briefly he talks a little bit more it's not definitely not hard just requires time so you do this method 20 minutes a day i guarantee to you your life is going to be different you're going to think positive you're going to think completely different the next thing one needs to do is to need to learn because our machine our engine the secret is contaminated from media from commercials from everything that i see around me i go on youtube to learn a torah class on the side i see all the junk and i go to facebook to see a nice torah class and i see all the junk in front of me and don't think for one second it doesn't register on your subconscious they proved it in with it in in hypnotism how much details are being registered in your subconscious just with your eyes going like this in the street so what do i need to do is to elevate my machine my intellect to the level of kedusha and that means you have to learn to wait at least 20 minutes a day but real learning you said to the level to the level of kudusa no the level of kudusa the to the level of holiness if my mind is not holy because excuse my language if i look at a woman and right away i'm thinking of bad things or not pure thoughts as a man my mind is not in a holy place and the story i need to elevate my my intellect to a holy place to dusha the only way of doing it is to connect my mohindu to torah now to watch a video online that's very nice not too long ago some young man came to me in a lecture oh you know i became observant a year ago i go and i learn torah i love your lectures i learn 10 hours a day torah 10 hours a day wow wow which shiva do you go to he tells me no not in yeshiva i watch videos on youtube tell him youtube is not a shiva torah you're learning a yeshiva with a book and you say the words and you look at the letters youtube is great i also put videos on youtube that's when you're working that's when you have nothing else to do or you don't have yeshiva to why you learn from a book not from a video why because in the video there's also a message might be a an advertisement before that or a promo on the side torah has to be learned in in in a room that where you pronounce the words you read you say the holy words you think you know when i give a lecture i hand over me or any speaker i i feed you i like it like a little baby here take take take right when i read from a book i need to read i didn't get it read again i didn't get it read it again why did he say like that i'm using my brain to sit in front of a speaker that's great you didn't use your brain so much i gave it to you i i chewed on it you know if i need to give an hour lecture sometimes i need to prepare six hours just to give an hour lecture why i take all the information i look at all the books and i will squeeze it in here and i'll give it to you now there's nothing wrong with that but you need at least 20 minutes that you read you pronounce the words you think oh i get it minimum 20 minutes i don't think people realize what torah is i don't think they i mean you could speak just a little bit more about that the idea of the divine embrace and you know that he really keep hiding his lies it's god speaking to us well torah is god's wisdom in other words and when i learn the torah and i understand god's wisdom i become united with god's wisdom now i become holy like the torah torah is not a book the torah is not a history book people think the torah is a history book they went out of egypt okay that's okay they went out of egypt but it's not a history book but nevertheless the torah has to be learned in a way that it becomes part of me that i internalize the torah i chew on it and i understand it and and any person men women children everybody you have to learn minimum 20 minutes i mean 20 minutes is nothing i always tell people minimum two hours two hours where am i going to find two hours well get off facebook be instead of three hours on facebook read five minutes on facebook and then learn torah there's nothing else to do so minimum 20 minutes i'll give you a discount i usually say two hours but nevertheless 20 minutes the next thing that is very important this is number three in the in the in the method you want to apply is what you eat and this is one thing that most people don't really realize that i know it sounds like a little bit like a cliche that you are what you eat but what you eat affects you directly first of all if it's not kosher that's already going to affect your machine right away says a person needs something that is not kosher it causes tim tumaseche the mind to be completely clouded you don't think straight you don't see straight so this is in the kosher department but even in the health department you know whatever you eat the way it goes food is very holy there's a positive part in the food and there's a negative part in the food the positive part part gets digested and goes into the heart from the heart it will get digested over there and goes to your mohin the bad part of the food it goes out but even something that is not healthy the way will be digested will affect my thoughts you know i put anybody to the challenge take one day that you only eat fruit one day i'm not telling you to go on a diet one day just eat good fruit and then in the evening learn something and i guarantee to you and take my words your concentration will be ten times better guarantee my husband and i have been on a bridge now boasting fruit diet since right before the summit is early and i think after that we wouldn't be able to keep up with what's important it's amazing that you're saying it does make a difference start your day with a cookie and a coffee full of sugar i guarantee to you your day is not going to be so clear you know we live in sfat here ba hashem and we had to find play schools to our kids i have one kid that is very very special special because he he's not i mean very wise very bright anyways we were looking for the right school for him anyways we got to a school it's not inspired it's outsourced fat and we were interviewed by the men hell by the principal and he didn't ask us if we have internet in the house that's what the other schools asked us if we have internet in the house they didn't ask us this you know what he asked us what do you feed him at home whoa i told him why you're asking that because we have a policy if you're giving sugar to your kid at home we don't want your kid here really if you're gonna give your kid in the morning choco you know in israel it's very popular this little bag and it's with chocolate milk with five kilos of sugar if you give your kid in the morning choco he's gonna be like this the whole day and then the psychiatrist is gonna say he has add adhd no no no give him retalin right away calm him down no take the choco away give him a carrot give him a cucumber he'll sit smiling yes what are we learning today why did we love this school so much i looked at one thing i looked behind the principle the books that he has in his bookshelf that's what captured my heart if you go to a bristol school you'll see in the back like if you go to ahabad school you'll see in the back if you go to asafari school you'll see the banished high you got ashkenazi school you'll see the kafitzkain he had all the books all books give it to me from everybody let me learn from everybody mikol milam das kalti david alexis king david says i have learned from all my teachers why should i narrow myself just for this you know rabbi nachman is just as great at the lubavitch arabian the baby rabbit is just as great as the banished high and the khafiz crime and they're gone from vilnius you think they hate each other and in shaman they're sitting there and learning torah so i looked at the bookshelf i was like wow it's my like my bookshelf it's all the types of the torah and then he gave us the other the the the cream of the crop we don't want treats in the school don't send the kids with candy to the school that's why 90 of the kids now are diagnosed with add and adhd because they the junk that they eat coca-cola on the morning two cups of coca-cola oh sorry to say that you clean toilets with coca-cola whoa in his right mind will give his kid coca-cola and then people don't understand what's going on in their mind ninety percent of what you have on the shelves in supermarket is not food it's chemicals it's gmo it's junk full of preservative why would you wanna eat that and then people don't understand why they depressed why they have anxieties where women can get pregnant of course you put your foot in a microwave i just get fear just to say the word microwave micro wave it takes five minutes to boil water on fire how can this metal box heat water in two minutes in two seconds something's not okay here and then people don't understand i have diseases hashem so the food this is the third component and i put anybody to the challenge put yourself on a strict diet health and kosher i guarantee to you a different person told different person i'll give you another example you know according to judaism we're not prohibited in eating meat of course i'm talking about kosher meat but we're not in any type of a way promoted or have to eat meat and the reality is where does it say that i have to eat meat you know that all the greats that they came i can give you now list of 500 zadikim that never touched meat in their life you're not obligated you don't have to if you want to eat okay i understand you have a tava i have a desire but you don't have to it's a misconception where people say you have to eat meat on shabbat no you don't you don't have to eat meat on shabbat you can elevate other food just the same way so same thing here with the non-jews certain things they don't have to they don't have to keep the diet of kosher but needless to say it will affect you it will affect your nephesh you have a spiritual being the non-jews are a massive part of the redemption you know when i when i was a asked to come on the on the show on the interview so i was what should i talk about and i was very uh i was deciding should i talk about the thoughts and i was about to talk about the nations how are the nations have to do with the redemption because i have a lot what to say about the nations we are doing a big mistake that we're not including the nations then the redemption is also for the nations by the way where do you think all the all the righteous gentiles are going to go to so we do know based on prophecies this is a prophecy from and many others the two-thirds of the world will be destroyed when mashiach comes but that leaves us two and a half billion people of righteous gentiles that they're going to be part of the redemption where are these gentiles bring now 100 million gentiles to become noids the redemption is 10 times faster so i was really debating if to talk about us or the gentiles the gentile has a huge role in the redemption they're part of the redemption they can also lift up their weight we need to of course inspire them and teach them so my opinion is they're not obligated in any culture but i would recommend i recommend a lot of my students i would say maybe 30 40 of my students and followers are not jewish some of them are maybe in the process of converting but the ones who we find that they're not they don't need to convert stay a righteous gentile be a righteous gentile you have a place in the world to come so i take anything that will be as a source of refinement and advise it to anybody but so much more so for us with such a refined and sensitive soul anything you'll feed your neshama will affect you so i take the third component of all the four very serious what we eat and a lot of people think that i'm a joking and exaggerating put it to the test put it to the test you know we don't eat meat i'm not a vegetarian i just don't eat meat and the reason why i don't eat meat is but mainly because of the cashews the cashew the the level of the certification and more than that how the animals are treated before they're even slaughtered but if i will slaughter the animal myself and this is an animal that i know i saw how it was right i'll eat it i'm but i'm i'm not eating it because i'm a vegetarian but i can tell you that when we stopped eating meat total difference and when i tell it to people i don't tell them you don't have to believe me go 40 days without without meat then come back after 40 days tell me how you feel i guarantee you you're going to be feeling much better forget about now the kosher are not kosher just your your mind quiet clean it's not physical and animalistic and full of desires and lusts and so we're not prohibited in eating meat but who says it's good for us you know even if you look at our digesting system our digesting system is not built to the just meat by the way our jaws are not built to chew meat we don't even have teeth to chew meat we're not carnivores up until now we weren't allowed to eat meat by the way afternoon came out of the ark we were allowed to eat meat and that was also if you want so nevertheless that's a whole conversation from itself just to go to the next step of the all four stages so we said silence in your thought learning torah elevating your muhin your intellect to a holy place the food that you eat will which will affect you tremendously i guarantee you that if you eat a lot a lot of heavy food makes you heavy and depressed and sad and and the next the last and not less important is the environment where you put yourself in we are affected by our environment tremendously now in the series that we're learning somebody told me what if i live amongst a lot of people to talk so move i don't associate myself with people who slander and talk like i don't want to be one i'd only be next to you i know it might sound a little bit arrogant or maybe selfish sorry to tell you i choose who who or who's around me i don't want anybody affecting me with their junk and their nonsense and their beliefs and their distorted thoughts so the environment is very very important i'm not saying that it's so easy just to pack up and leave but you want to move yourself to a holy place it's not so easy to be in a place that has a lot of impurity and not to be affected by it it can be done don't get me wrong you can affect the entire environment but that's if you know how to do it some people you know where you see it you see the chabad rabbis they go all around the world and they they affect the community they don't get affected by the community i have many chabad rabbis that they live in different places some of them that are not successful because they didn't project out to the to the to the surroundings but if i come and i project out i will never be affected if i take in that only that i don't affect i swallow everything so i can affect everything around me but very few people know how to affect their surrounding i learned that many years ago when you learn from the oral torah you see that the oral torah is the most mystical thing ever soon when mashiach is going to come he's going to take the oral torah and show us how mystical it is but when you learn to become a rabbi there's different subjects one of the subjects is called meliha when you salt the the meat when after you slaughter it there's a question there the way it's done i will take a piece of meat put salt on it because the salt absorbs the the blood that's in the meat excuse me then i will put another piece of meat on it salt it and so forth now the way to do it is you just put salt on the meal meat now when you're thinking about it millions of people are consuming kosher meat you need stadiums to put all the meats to spread the meat what do they do they take a piece of meat put salt another piece of meat so piece of meat then you have if you go to a kosher factory you'll see piles of pieces of meat there's a question in what happens if one of those pieces is the shrita the slaughtering was not done good something was wrong with the animal what if that piece is not kosher so now all the pile is not kosher the answer is no the answer is very simple whatever is busy to export or to eject the piece of meat is ejecting the blood out of it as long as it's busy ejecting the blood it cannot take in anything so you take that piece out and you throw it and the rest of the meat is kosher this apply this to your life when you are busy exporting or giving out you never take in some people tell me how don't you get affected with people i would let somebody else's energy affect me no no i guard myself very strong i will not let you affect me your mood your anger your lies your stupidity will affect me never i am walled how just give give the more you give you can take in so i can sit in a room full of anger it doesn't affect me i don't let you affect me ever how do you do it very simple just be busy giving so if i go to an environment and i'm a giver nothing will affect me i will not take anything in and people their energy is so powerful sometimes you can sit in a room 20 people 100 people one person walks into the room his energy is hard or angry the whole room is uncomfortable the whole room gets affected from one person but look on the other hand take an amazing speaker an inspirational motivational speaker he walks into a room suddenly a thousand people are why oh he has powerful energy he walked into the room suddenly the whole the whole house the whole true bright energy right it projects can you imagine the energy of moshe revenue i can't even fathom the energy of moshe rabeno standing next to such a beam of light so if i don't want to be affected by my surroundings it's how i hold myself and that's just being a giver constantly you give but how many people know how to just give and give and give so they get affected from the society around them you're angry i get angry you're in a bad mood i will get into a bad mood why are you bringing your junk into my my domains leave your junk out so when i want to summarize it i have ash kata control your thoughts learn torah you elevate your mukhin to a holy place and learn from a book and if you can learn in hebrew then learn in hebrew and if you don't understand hebrew then read the ilim because when you read the illegal you don't have to understand what you're saying just pronounce the word and in our and in our generation there there are siddurim that it's transliterated that you read the english how it sounds in hebrew say the hebrew words you know the rizal says if you want to do a great tikkunto in a jamaa read five pages of zor every day but i don't know how to read people will say doesn't matter just read it just let the words just pronounce the words the third is what i eat which i find it one of the most powerful and dominant anyone and then the environment around me apply all that i can guarantee to you you are going to be a much more calm happy not judgmental not depressed healthy person thinking straight you see things you don't judge it so fast you know become so judgmental so arrogant and so angry i see sometimes people i feel bad for them how do you live with yourself all day long full of anger full of hate and he said that he said and she so we we're living already at the times of mashiach he just needs to pick up the veil shia is here already everything is ready just open your eyes and if you can't open your physical eyes then then change the way how you're thinking i guarantee to anyone to just apply what i said it will work thank you there are some questions but we're at two hours so i think maybe she's sitting for next time i'm sorry everyone that's why i said in the beginning only 90 minutes within 90 days 90 hours in 90 days like every now and then at least i do i can definitely say something that is on the subject but of the subject wherever you are whoever you are is so close we are so you can you can smell his scent just focus on how you are bringing the redemption don't focus on anything else don't focus on other people's behavior don't focus on other people's money don't focus on anything but how do i bring the redemption if i lie all day long then today instead of lying a hundred times like 99 times if you say leonardo one time shut up one time come to say no today this time i'm not gonna say it i constantly what's echo on echoing in my mind how can i be the one that tilts the whole world to a favorable side that mashiach can come and we're all going to benefit from it and the way to really apply that is is the key here is like what i said before the numerical humble yourself you are nothing humble yourself in front of everybody look at moshe rabbenu the greatest of all humbled yourself instead of maybe he's right it's not about you and you bring this unit if we were able to bring this unity the slave that's it we broke the clipper and now the clipper is very very powerful why is it that you what is it that specifically makes me feel that that people is so close that nobody should be preoccupied with anything but making it happen now of course everybody feels it i talk with gentiles from different parts of the world and they're telling me i feel something's in the air because we're starting to feel the energy of mashiach the energy is is is still contained everybody feels one way or another a lot of people's anxieties and fears is because they feel something is changing right absolutely but the reality is that i speak with and i'm especially saying that around the world gentiles come to me and tell me something's happening the world everything is changing [Music] listen this is amazing news 3000 years we're waiting for 3331 years we are waiting for the giula you know why because when the spies when they came back we just read that four weeks ago when they came back they came back on tisch above if they would give good news if they would not slander her at israel then you'd we would pack everything up three day journey yodalif you do it you gimmel of journey you dialed of we conquer the land we build beta best day it's the day the most suspicious day for mashiach to come and what was the cause of it lying cheating you know what the door says about the spies many commentaries says listen and ah and e and ooh the zoll says you know what was the problem of the spies they were niseim nasi is like a prince it's a head head of a tribe they made a quick calculation if we're going into earth israel we are going to be replaced there's going to be re-elections moshe rabeno is going to appoint different nesium we're going to lose our status oh no no no i don't want to lose my fats paycheck and the car and the office with a view let's lie but why are you thinking of yourself are you thinking of your own status think of three million people in the desert it's the same thing history repeats itself we're going out of mitziam all we need is just now to to bring it down to le pol to action and everybody can do it and everybody has to do it and yeah it's in the air you can smell it you can smell the the freshness but still is involved in a little bit of shekel okay so let's let's remove it [Music]
