the thing is like this kades has nothing
to do kades basically what happens in
the Kadesh for 11 months or for 12
months then goes through trial we say 11
months kades because we say a trial ofad
is 11 months is 12 months so the kadish
for 11 months the words that come out of
the kadish it explained that every word
that every letter that comes out creates
these millions of angels that go and WRA
the n and the is being safe the whole
journey up from all theik and the and
all the bad spirits however you want to
call it to come to harm the Nish so you
do this barrier around the Nish that's
it trial is over you stop the kades the
mishna if you look at the word mishna
it's the same of so it basically does
the same thing it protects the but it
doesn't give the you know a merit then
if you go and you you know you donate
things on the person's name so if the
person Shalom the scale is not so great
and he needs a little thing maybe you're
this Mitzvah or your Mitzvah will til
the scale but it's not the of
the now if the already after the trial
is already sitting in GED it's just like
a little bonus it's not the of what the
did in this world obviously it's a big
thing and I'm not telling you not to do
it the N gets this amazing pleasure the
N the greatest pleasure n gets is
looking down and seeing its kids
grandkids great grandkids all in the
path of Torah that's the that's that's
the the gets because it's they're
showing this is what your offsprings are
doing and the N gets a credit for that
so it's like a multi-level marketing so
you have K you have kids they do mitz
you you get fir of it cuz you educated
them to do yeah you exactly you send
them to Yesa and they have kids and they
have kids so you have yeah it's a multi
level marketing and what if you didn't
then you have a problem no no no but
what
that's a whole different the kids they
go away they come back what if the is
the person who didn't send their kid to
Yesa kid went TOA like you did then
that's the that's the they still get a
reward for for that's the concept of the
diamonds in the jewelry store they
missed a few boxes of diamonds and to
kind of put it in a more physical way
it's almost like somebody coming and
telling you give me now $1,000 I'm going
to invest it in this company I guarantee
you in 10 years you're a billionaire and
you're like ah it sounds a little bit
too risky or I don't want to put my
money in there I forget about it that 10
years pass and this guy comes and tells
you here you could have made that money
so your reaction is that you want to
kick yourself in the head how how did I
miss it but you didn't really miss you
just missed what you could have
gained so for example when I came to to
New York 17 years ago somebody told me
you know there's a new company now went
to out to the market and their Shares
are very very cheap and if you invest
now I guarantee you you make a lot of
money and I was like I didn't believe
and the companies called crispy creams
it's like a Dunkin Donuts it's like a
massive country company that 17 years
ago I could have B bought shares for
nothing so it means now I'm suffering no
but I could have been a millionaire so
the Nish could have sent the child to
Yeshiva
so she could have gained a lot a lot of
mitv but it didn't then anyways if he
has the Merit then the kid anyways you
know let's say my my parents they didn't
send me to Yeshiva but they obviously
had the Merit that I'll do Chua and I'm
back to Yeshiva when I'm 30 soem that's
exactly what what it says the
says
doesn't whoever needs to get what what
you're supposed to get you get it hasem
will make it in such a way that you get
what you're supposed to get and whatever
bonus you're supposed to get you'll get
but yes when you miss things out I'll
give you an example now other day a few
months ago I made I had a lecture in
Westchester I finished like at 3:00 in
the morning I was very like my mind was
like exploding already so I was like
okay I have an hour and a half to drive
down to Brooklyn all I wanted to do is
open the window put some nice music and
relax during the drive so I put the CD
in I put the music on and then I tell
myself wait a minute I have an hour and
a half now in the car I can now sit like
this for an hour and a half and I'm not
going to gain anything out of it or I
can put a CD with a sheer and listen to
Torah now for an hour and a half what am
I going to get here I'm going to get an
hour and a half of Torah you can't even
imagine the reward in the world to come
if I'm already being very stingy and I'm
looking at the reward or I'm just going
to have wind on my face and my thoughts
will be wondering so I was like
obviously I want to listen out to air
for an hour and a half so but sometimes
your mind can take it I'm just giving an
example sometimes yes sometimes you need
to go out and clear your mind a little
bit but the point what I'm trying to say
is that every day of every minute of
your day you can say I can now sit down
and read two capitals of the or I can uh
I don't know what go on Facebook and and
reach toot for 5 minutes
it's all you know doesn't mean a person
who doesn't do it that he's going to be
barbecued in G but he's missing another
Mitzvah another five minutes another
Mitzvah another closeness the point is
that this is like an investment this
world is a is
a time when you invest because every
Mitzvah that you do it's another when
you're sitting in G another closest to
that's that's very very simple
