[Music] first of all this is a very very special day it's p one of the most amazing special days on the calendar so we're going to talk about p in a few moments first we're going to start by thanking rabbits and folks and anybody who's involved in creating this wonderful event and thank you for coming and we're going to very very quickly just dedicate a few names for the for this lecture uh with your permission I'll just going to read the names very quickly should have success in everything that they're struggling with and also for and her daughters Gabriela sisel and Le alexandraa raisel should have all the good things that hasem what to give us and I'm going to wish you already now and everybody who needs and everything that your heart desires hasem should bless us all with great happiness and health in these difficult times that we're going through so we have uh a very powerful opportunity today to some extent many of the Great Sages say that is like so how many do we have a year we have we have P we have coming up and we don't have much and today is in the same level the same aspect of a y so you have to pay attention because we have an opportunity when the K gives opportunity you have to be focused on the opportunity and and and to know when to seize the opportun so I see this as a huge opportunity I'm not talking right now the because I booked this ticket really last minute and when I was looking for flights with all the situation going on in Israel there's barely any flights not talking about the prices right now but to find a flight and the only flight that I found was to P I was like okay want me p in New York so everything is planned by the I wanted to be here for it didn't work out so I'm here for the residents of Miami will enjoy me but in life you need to know when to jump on an opportunity especially when Hashem puts an opportunity in your face so P really the title of P should be M aood nothing is ever lost nothing can be a a a titled as okay this is a done deal and or as many people say always you can fix and this is the beauty of this of this that you can always fix everything doesn't matter how far you went or whatever you did the great teachings of the of I'm sure you know the term everybody likes throwing the term which is and a lot of people think it's some type of slang or some type of like a to make a bumper s sticker out of it a slogan but the reality is that when RAB said he basically told us hasem didn't create despair he created hate he created happiness he created love he created everything he didn't create y so and Y it's not on the catalog even the comes and tells you oh by the I want you to to be depressed and sad and I want you to fall into despair but there's no such a thing it's almost like saying I don't like the color red and somebody will come tell you there's no such a color this is not red it's brown so says it's not even created but the approach is if you believe that you can damage something again believe that you can fix it so this is really the title of because really when you're thinking about it there's no nothing on the calendar Shen there's no there's no Shabbat sh there's nothing sh why why PES do we get another chance why da specifically on the holiday of PES does the concept of a rerun or another option so the concept of p is that you can always fix every situation now in essence everything in this world has a point where it starts from the teachings of cabala calls it the r sh of everything I'll explain R when do we celebrate it Al that's not the beginning of the year the beginning of the year is Al that's the beginning of the year is not the beginning R is the head if we would need to define the right way we should call it the beginning of the year but that doesn't apply for the first day of so means is where everything is originated from likees what does it meanes it should have been called the beginning of the month why head of the month doesn't even make sense not Gramm in any other way R means that everything is included in that so the the hand is the essence of everything so will be applied to almost anything in my life that I can say this is the for that concept so when we're looking at the concept of and I can fix everything and the the is the root of the root and the essence of the beginning that I can always fix everything that's that's that you can fix everything that you ever damaged now we're on a very special day today is the 20 the the the sorry the 14th day of Y but we read yesterday night and today is the 29th day of the OM so the 14th day of Y and the 29th day of the there's a significance to both of them together and not only that there's a very special connection between the 29th day of of the to King David to David a and we'll go through this very shortly because David has a what's called a an ESS that is eternal we have great sages prophets leaders in our past but only a handful of them we have a close relationship on a daily basis everyone in this room and out of this room has a personal relationship with David a first of all you read in any a given opportunity and if you don't read then you pray Shar as inar and almost everything that you do is based around the life of David and David is one of the most abused individuals in history you would think our king would be glorified and would be taken as the greatest leader in history which now we're looking at that but when David was was the king and before that he didn't have much followers and much supporters soav is what's called of you can break me and step on me and and trash me and hurt me and do anything they can just can you imagine davik's life and he still was holding his he was still holding his and he understood and that's part of what he needs to do and what needs to go through so we're going to elaborate that very soon but the the 29th day of the OM which is right now even though we counted it yesterday but we are in the 29th day will very soon touch the connection to David and one of the PO the most important thing is that David doesn't matter what happened he always fell but he knew how to get up he always knew how to get up and the from that is brought to us that we're going to run through challenges and difficulties and so many things in our life we need a source of power that will allow me to get up that I can get up in the morning deal with my life deal with my challenges deal with whatever right now hem is throwing into my Direction Where do we draw the for that from DAV from all that he had to go through he P paved the way for us to be able to deal with challenges so we'll get to that in a second I want to talk a little bit a few moments about the idea of P first of all we have to understand something very important that the the nation of Israel only celebrated two PES when they left MIT they did the first P the first year no no in the in the desert in MIT they didn't celebrate PES they left for PES so they didn't celebrate PES they just left when do they celebr celebrate the first PES a year later and from that point explains they didn't do PES the entire 39 years in the desert because they didn't circumcise themselves 39 years in the desert they didn't circumcise themselves the talud explains because there wasn't a northern wind in the desert and and that's the wind that heals people from sicknesses and they couldn't they they didn't have that wind in the desert so they didn't circumcise themselves for 39 years therefore they didn't celebrate PES for 39 years so celebrated two p in the desert the first year I mean like the first year after leaving and P and that's it and only once they came into is and then they started celebrating PES again what's the difference no there wasn't any more PES once they entered is then their status changed question so yes so hold the question and and I'll address it when we're done so the first year that they celebrated p in the desert that's the day when the man first came down so if we need to make a calculation when they left MIT they made mat how long did the matot last them for 30 days when did the mat finish when did the man started coming down so for 30 days they were eating the mat that they came out with from MIT and once that finished they already came into P there were enough people who didn't celebrate pen because there were many different individuals that we know of that were and they couldn't celebrate P so they couldn't celebrate first P they had to wait for Sor so what we know from that is that the first year of P the first month they were eating their own matot and then the matot ended and that day started coming down the man now we have to understand the says the T was only given to the ones who ate the man so what came first the Torah or the man the man the man came way before getting the Torah now what do we know was the aspect of the man the as the aspect of man was our sustenance our par they didn't have to go and work so the essence of man is my sustenance what is the one of the biggest challenges that we all have in our life is how am I going to pay my bills how I'm going to make money how am I going to support my family how am I going to support my kids the concept of man is bringing you that's really what man means many people when they have a lot of struggles they read every day is all about giving you and not only that giving you what's called the the the the air to survive the that you have to have the for so on that day that's when the man came down on the 15th day of well technically the 29th day of and not only that that we know that the man signifies is 29th day of yeah what did I say oh I'm sorry after a know thank you so much want to hear we'll do the so in order for the nation of Israel to receive the and by the way what's going to happen in a few weeks in the holiday of sh is a repetition of mat T we're going to receive the Torah again in a few weeks if you are worthy of receiving the Torah and you did the right action throughout the OM then you'll receive the Tor and Sh sh is not about cheesecakes shab is about me receiving the Torah because there's a very good chance that I didn't receive it in pre previous years and of course I'm talking about receiving it in the spiritual level we not we already got the Torah in the physical level but sh is the day that I can receive the Torah how can I receive the Torah only healthy people could receive the Torah so the man had partnership in healing everybody and prior to the receiving of the Torah everybody was healed when they all stood in har the the were able to walk the blind saw the deaf heard I mean they had to come perfectly healthy to receiving the Torah so we learn from that that in order to receive the Torah I have to come healthy to mat and the man is what they did that now interestingly here everything in this world that has the potential to give power to something else it will exist prior to the what we need to to to receive from I I'll I'll tell it in a different way from the fact when I understand and I apply that that everything could be fixed that gives the for the man to come down and that's what happened then so I'm going to say it again maybe my Hebrew sometimes doesn't fall well with the English because I believe firmly that I can fix everything that gives the power for the man to come down that's the engine so to say so what happened is that they came and they approached walking to Har with understanding that any doesn't matter how bad the situation is doesn't matter how many dead ends I ran into doesn't matter how many challenges puts in front of me the candle burns you can still fix so the attitude of everything can be fixed was the engine it gave the power for the man to come down and what did the man do eventually heal them all so they would be ready to receive the Tor with that said we have to understand that since everything has an Essence then the man was the essence of par and Paran like I told is one of the biggest struggles everybody has in all generations it was always like that because that's the curse that gave you're going have to sweat and work hard to make make a living so we have two major things that we're battling here when it comes to this concept is how it comes about the K is going to Turn the World Around that I will be challenged with means belief and that I have faith and trust in God this every person not only in this room in this entire world is dealing with and the throws to your direction the challenge that is the hardest for you to digest and we all have challenges if it's not witha then it's with health and if it's not with health then it's with aund million other things I don't need to elaborate and I don't see any difference in any place that I go whether it's New York London or yam we're all going through struggles so one person doesn't have struggles in this department but the struggles in this department the wants us on how do you say the America on your toes on your Edge keeping you alert who wants us to reach to a point of true and unfortunately most people when it comes to that test if the test is a little bit too much then the and the cease to exist and the example to that and I'll give you one example out of many this is just a parable to understand the idea imagine a situation there's a a young man he decided decides to to be to do okay I'm sure if some of you are then the first few years is easy Shem says okay I'll let you go what you need to do after 5 years 10 years then then life kicks in and the challenges start so in my example imagine a young man he does Chua they let him go for 2 three years after a few years the committee in the L Court they come all together and they say okay let's who are we talking about today case 3452 M okay uh okay he's been about cha very good for a few years we have to test him now everybody has to go through a test so the comedian shamim sits and like how we going to test him so then all the IDS come up let's tempt him with a beautiful woman let's tempt him with this let's tempt him with that one of the members of the committee says no no no no no why don't we just with money we do it to everybody it always works perfect okay all in favor all in favor the next day M loses $5 you know what's his reaction is so good thank you I'm happy I lost the $5 and Sham you know what's going on with the committee they're all 10 9.8 they're all wow he passed the test amazingly the same member of the committee says $5 a little bit higher at a zero let's see his reaction the next day he loses $50 same reaction to hasem is amazing he's removing all my sins Hashem is a they're all dancing enjoying sh how did he do it the same guy says $50 that's not a test add a few dollars add a few zeros next day he loses $50,000 suddenly no no does everything is good why is AEM doing it to me I've been B cha for 10 years that's what I get son the goes out of the window the doesn't exist anymore all I did is added a few zeros what's the difference between 50 and 50,000 three zeros a nothing but went out of the and that's what happens to all of us when we dealing with something small just add a little bit pressure on the T suddenly why is AEM doing it to me I'm such a good person why do do I deserve this why do I need to do that why are they talking about me like that why is this doing like this and this the zor says that right before mashia is going to come the ultimate test we're going to be challenged with is that's it that's the test of Our Generation not love to hem not to do I think our generation has such a a huge amount of TV that was not like this for many many years if you go in the history of our nation where did you find in history yes from here to tomorrow we're talking here like massive but everywhere in the world everywhere in the world I don't think we ever had such a status as our nation that we have so much Tah so muched I don't even know a number I'm assuming we're talking about billions of dollars a year are being moved into sedak when did we have such a thing so as a nation in regards to Torah and Sak know I think we're doing good we're doing actually pretty pretty good from previous generations because now we can learn to everywhere the toora is on the internet 80 years ago who Le put Torah in public they had to learn T Qui okay everything quiet our test right now is not how much Torah we learn and how much we do and of course we tested with basic things but the ultimate test is and hasem knows the zeros that he needs to add to you that will put all the pressure and especially I'm telling zeros CU zero is a nothing has no m zero but yet between 50 to 50,000 there's a huge difference but there's not it's only zeros soem knows exactly what's your weak point Hashem knows exactly where you have the most potential and when Hashem knows where you have the most potential that's where Thea is going to kick in that's when the challenges are going to kick in that's where the failures are going to kick in CU on their left sign the doesn't want you to be successful but on the other hand hasm says that's the path of this world you didn't come to this world to do nothing you came to this world to deal with challenges because a challenge for us is a challenge but really a challenge is a ladder a challenge is a ladder for you to grow to the next level if I'm want to reach to a high level I need something underneath me I need something to raise me higher so we said that in order to receive the Torah first of all you have to be healthy second of all from the power that I know that everything can be corrected and fixed that's the engine the source that the man can come down and the man really signifies that I just sit and I do what a once and everything comes to me and you know with the man it was very interesting there were three types of pickup locations for sikim the man came to their door for less than Sim they had to it was around them but the had to go all the way to the Ed Edge of the camp why why the rame had to go all the way to the other side of the camp because the person woke up in the morning he opened his doorstep where where's the man oh if the man is not on my doorstep means I did something he goes and starts looking around for it he can't find it so he has to go to the edge of the M of the camp for him to realize what did I do yesterday that today the man didn't come to my doorstep for a person to say stop I didn't get the man I did something most people he did something she how many people sayit I did something what did I do I must have done something maybe I spoke maybe I was very judgmental maybe I was wrong in my decision I don't know but I did something tells me I will give you the signs that you know where you're holding and if you didn't get your man run right to your doorstep there's only one person to complain to you you did something fix your ways and you go back you get the man FedEx to your door the the system is the perfect system because if I don't know that I did something I might live my entire life not knowing that I did something wrong and you know what happened to me a few years ago like any man who prays a lot or a woman you know the prayer off by heart so I would go to Min and I think it was about 8 years eight years I would pray M and say a off my heart and 8 years later I found out that I'm missing one word in that changes the meaning even eight years I was proud that I know I can walk since that day I understood that you don't pray off by heart you pray from the S the go from Vila was very very particular that you look at the Sid at every letter and every word and pronounce it from the Sid can you imagine the devastation on my side 8 years I'm praying and I'm saying the wrong word I don't know if to say if it's embarrassing or it's I I don't but theem puts in front of you all the roads blocks all the steps that you need to know in order to understand where you're holding and this is all connected to P because p is the heart that I can switch everything I can change everything on now the man when you're looking at the concept of the man man gave them the the security in hasem that Hashem will give me everything that I need but on that day it doesn't come what I need today tomorrow or vice versa I need to have a that hm is going to give me today what I need whether it's Mya whether it's my challenge where there whether whatever I need to do today that's what hasem is going to give me today that's a very high level of because in the physical world we wake up every day in the morning to to go and work and you know a lot of people they don't think about it mechanically but every day I have to get up to get my and if I don't have that is going to pay me then I'm I beat the whole point now many trust their boss okay my boss is going to pay me dam is the man who will trust another man you trust another man to give you your paycheck I'm very very uh I don't know if the word adamant would be appropriate here but I'm very concerned about the Jews who live in North America that they should move to Israel if you listen to if you listen to me long enough you'll probably heard it 50 times that we belong in Israel we don't belong here in America Hashem is showing you very clearly right now that you don't belong here there's no much there don't to elaborate to elaborate to to continue everybody has their understanding that hem is now telling you all we don't belong here yesterday I sat in a restaurant and there was a few people was very very nice Gathering we're talking and we're talking about what's going on right now and semitism and the war in Israel and who's going to win Trump Biden what's going to happen so we talking about current events one guy comes up from the back he's like listen I couldn't help myself I heard you talking and he comes and tells us a beautiful quote from kazal that after the nation of Israel was kicked out of Y and is with the destruction of the temple needless to say to the slap to their face that they got can you imagine 420 years I'm here we have a beta mikdash now hasm is destroying bet and giving me a kick to my to get out of here but miraculously 70 years later they're back to is how many people came back to Earth Israel you said 50 yeah you know a fraction of the nation came back then unfortunately 70 years later comes the second destruction when they request questioning how come the this second destruction came so fast then says cuz he didn't come back home we came back home we set everything up we fixed everything and then we sent you letters come back and you know what they all said oh we're good here my kids are settled I havea I I don't need to come back comes a second destruction hasem gives you your land and gives you your bet mdash you grab it you don't s sit 5,000 Mi away and say no no no I'm good here so what we going through now as a nation we're going through a very very difficult time as a nation not thinking right now as a human race that hasem is now going to is now making with everything everything that we're seeing unfolding in front of our eyes let hm do his thing this is an account of 4,000 years that hem is now going to make s means organize everything every gets what they deserve the zor says to the extreme that all the leaders that ever existed that went against the nation of Israel will all be incarnated in the last generations to the leaders of the world which means that we have here and and we have everybody here they're all incarnated in the leaders of the world why is now going to pay back to all the ones who made bad wrong and evil to the nation of Israel so was organizing the entire world in a way for us to see one step after the other the writing on the wall and what will be the result from that a huge test of when you see certain things that will shake your tremendously if you look back 7 months ago to the event in in October 7 there's a a certain amount of people that it actually changed their perspective and they became closer to AEM but many had the I don't know have to say the right but many had the claim of how can AEM do such a thing how can hasem do such a thing now I don't like that question at all because we saw Hashem did that 70 plus years ago we're not allowed to question AEM what he's doing why he's doing how is he doing yeah our human mind won't get it don't try to get it even and definitely don't question hasem cuz we can question hasem not only what happened in October 7 months ago what happened in all the history and not that I'm beling anything but can you compare October 7 to the Holocaust October 7 was every day in the Holocaust and one of other progams in Soviet Union before that and the the Spanish Inquisition and how much back we going and so we can't question AEM we can't doubt AEM and that's a huge huge test in amuna now comes a different question why has the power to fix not P oruka or anything why P sh was chosen in the teachings of cabala the essence of p is the of Mal and our sages explain there are two P Isa that failed that failed and and didn't exist and and then sustain is the king king Kingdom of King David that's what the teachings of kabala explains therefore since PES is the concept of and freedom and all all this the teachings that we know but the real Eternal one is the since p is connected to I told you in the beginning we'll elaborate on that more the day the 29th day of of the OM is connected not because we have in the you don't have to have the word in the in order to be connected it's just a very powerful day that is connected to David So com our sages and explain why D on P you can let it to fix because P corresponds to the Mal and the Mal means a kingship that's where you can fix something the in this physical world you can fix things in the spiritual world you can't so the teachings of K explains okay theere that's what gives you the essence to fix the ability to fix now I started talking a little bit about what's going on now in here unfortunately in Isel in many different places but I recently came across an unbelievable H I can even call it a prophecy from a great Rabbi called who lived about 60 years ago in El isra and uh with no question Hades you read his text you see that it's not a regular author or a rabbi and he has a book that is called translation will be the love of life that book is about the the the process of the Redemption and he said something there you have to understand that this was written uh maybe 6070 years ago in he passed away in with we're talking here about close to seven years ago and he says that the Redemption of MIT is the Redemption of the Soul not of the body and then he says in the complete and Final Redemption as we pray is is the nation of Israel will will be redeemed and saved with AEM but that's this Redemption is eternal it's not like when we made out of MIT that was a temporary Redemption he explains that the MIT is GES which we needed that to start with but obviously was required the thousands of years of Exile so we have gulat the Redemption of the body but it can only happen this Redemption can only happen by hasem so if we're putting our trust in the IDF in metan Biden trump it doesn't matter the names the G is only going to come with hem it's not going to come in any type of a way which means that we have to believe only in hem and now I'm in America people ask me who do you think will win Trump or Biden does it matter to you who wins you think one of them is going to change anything in this country if Trump Trump wins expect a disaster they're going to turn this country upside down if you're seeing these riots in the in colleges this is nothing what they're going to do if he loses then I don't have to continue either way you're looking at it I spoke about it yesterday we'll probably elaborate about it also tonight in the lecture in in in grey neck there's no much future for this country start heading towards our land because that's where we belong is writing on the wall all the signs that you need to know another sign and another sign and another sign knocks all the time all the time knocks are you there are you there we read in the verse The Voice the sound of my he's knocking and the continuation of the verse is here it is it's coming is everybody's doors wake up wake up wake up the challenges that I'm throwing towards you is not to punish you it's not to make you your life hard is to wake you up because the Redemption is coming are you ready to receive the Torah are you healthy spiritually physically emotionally are you ready to receive the Tor do you want to pass another sh and you don't receive the Tor wake up is now turning this world world upside down so the great he says when we're going to start the Redemption will be great Darkness there's going to be a lot of a lot of problems and a lot of and a lot of Wars so we see all this with our own eyes one can take this and say Darkness was for the last 3,000 years right we always have we always have wow you didn't reveal anything so he comes and he adds and I wrote it down so I can quote I could come with books with me he says everybody will hate the nation of Israel and will go against us and you see with your own eyes the whole world is going against us now yesterday the prime minister of Spain announced that on May 28 they will recognize Palestine as an individual State and every day like that one world leader comes and says something and your great president two weeks ago what he said about about is it's it's embarrassing there's some reporter who answered him back and says how UNG great ful you are half the Jews voted for you that's how you talk about the Jews your own president there's going to be Darkness there's going to be a lot of problems there's going to be Wars and more than that is everybody will start hating am Isel and you see it with your own eyes you might not notice it a CU you live here be because you can get away with looking Jewish when I land here there's no way of me hiding yesterday I was in a storm and I'm I'm talking with my son and this guy suddenly tells me in Hebrew you okay everything they're helping you I didn't expect that so he tells me oh yeah yeah I'm I'm is an Israeli I'm I'm I'm Israeli I'm Jewish and he says but nobody knows that I'm Jewish nobody knows here though I said okay so you can go stealth [Music] what are we going to do I do this and I feel the strong hate towards us you can't even imagine a good friend of us went with us no I'm not talking about the last trip we went somewhere and she couldn't believe how hostile and how much anti-Semitism was directed to us cuz she's a lady she looks like a can be any faith I feel it and I'm sure many others now listen what he says this great after he says is after everybody will hate is look at this which is the United Nations we should not believe to the United Nations America and not in America this is 60 years ago and don't even go with the rest of the Nations we are going to be isolated now from all nations of the world and you know why CU wants to fulfill the prophecy gather us all from all corners of the world so a you have to start preparing for it emotionally psychologically financially we all want the Redemption doesn't say we're going to get it how we want it it doesn't say anywhere that we have any promise that the Redemption will come how we want it will come but maybe not how we want it maybe with a lot of darkness and can you argue with that we see it with our own eyes but he ends by saying we should strengthen with our because hem is the one who's going to take us out of this horrible situation so it's all about how much do you have how much belief and Faith you have in the K now you might not feel Nations going against you but you will experience horrible challenges in your life whether it's in dis respect of hate or whether you just all day long occupied with challenges in your life and of course you always know that the main cliches that the grass of the neighbor is always greener my problems are the biggest I wish I had your problems the fact is that don't wish for you to change your problems the proof to that is I'll tell you a quick story that there was once a very God-fearing amazing man all his life prayed did s learned T he was really the the perfect example of a person who horrible life horrible life never had money kids went against him the wife divorced him sick operation you can't even imagine and how does he end his life he goes out to the road and he gets run over and dies he goes up to Sham all Angry the first angel that meets him he's like I want to see the master of the universe I want to see AEM this is unacceptable okay they take him in front of hasem tells him what's wrong what's the problem he says listen I did everything you told me to do I led my life according to the Torah and you gave me the most horrible life I I disagree I want you to send me back to this world I want to have a near death experience and be on YouTube that's my addition uh I want to go I want to go back to this world and I want you to give me a better life so hasem says okay I'll grant you your wish but you you know everybody has to have problems in this world which means that you going to need to come down to the world with some type of problems so you got to choose some problems so he sends him to the end of the corridor and he tells him you see at the end of the corridor there's a door knock on the door ask for the angel tell them that I send you and he will let you choose uh uh your problems he follows the orders he goes to the door and he sees like a warehouse like a Home Depot aisles and Isles and aisles and shelves to a height that he can barely see all the shelves are covered with with are a full of bags full of problems and he tells the angel what are all these bags he says every bag is a bag of problems for one okay go around choose your bag he runs up and down the aisles he's going crosss he's he's like I'm finding the smallest bag here after hours and hours and hours of searching finally he moves a few bags he finds like a little bag like this he pulls it out he runs all happy to the angel beep he scans it okay go back to Hashem he goes all back to Hashem all happy and Hashem says no you chose a bag of problems he says yeah this one he says why did you choose the bag you had last life we all have to have problems in this world the depends how you deal with it don't try to extend your problems you don't know how to deal with other people's problems deal with your own problems hem wants you close to him he ends this paragraph by saying that's it it's all for our benefit every challenge that I go every difficulty every tear every pain it's for my good I don't see it right now but it's for my good the problem is that we came to a place you can see it with your own eyes don't even try to argue the whole world is against us okay there's some good people not some there's a lot there's a lot of good people who don't hate us but in general the screen that we're standing in front of is hate towards am is we are in a period also that I'm sure you are familiar that we are mourning the death of the 24,000 students of RAB AA the tracted the tracted says page 62 that 244 students sorry sorry 24,000 students of R AA died which is you're talking about 750 funerals a day just imagine RAB AKA has to say kadish for each one 750 kadim now of course you know I don't need to elaborate why did they all die they didn't treat each other with with with respect that's in itself a lesson for us to understand that if these great sages didn't treat each other with respect and died as a result then what about us do I really treat every body with respect the sad reality is that no very few people not respect other people respect their time respect their privacy respect their needs the majority of most people don't know how to respect other people they think of myself it's my needs it's my thought my opinion you wrong should I saymore if these great sages died k then so much more so for us it says that when when the quote is they didn't treat each other with respect it says that that they the sin was between they didn't have an issue with AEM they just didn't treat each other the right way after the disaster RAB AKA picked up the wounds which you can compare now RAB everything that we're talking can you imagine losing your 25 24,000 students can you imagine the tragedy and you're the leader the Tor always says there's a problem someway go to the leader Hebrew we have a more interesting term we say in Hebrew the fish stinks from the head there's a problem go to the Head where where is the problem you imagine the devastating situation for RAB AKA nevertheless he picks up all the pieces he gathers five students and he builds the Torah all over again he takes who today five students and he says you are going to build rebuild the Tor many quotes from kazal say that the reason why they pass passed away these students okay they didn't treat each other the right way didn't treat each other with cavod but more than that they didn't see each other as equal and many other issues that they have but once R AKA took these five students he gave them one class many years later came many more classes but the first class thata gave his five students first of all he he explained to them that the reason why these students died because their purpose in the world was to bring over the Torah to the Next Generation and the Next Generation and the Next Generation when failed in their task then Hashem killed them that's it they didn't fulfill their purpose what was the quote in the first class of of of of RAB AKA he says don't be like your friends don't repeat what they did that's that was his class he didn't tell them Hashem created the world here and there he didn't teach them he told them don't do what your friends did okay now I have another big question why did they die now why couldn't they die in Kev why was it chosen between PES and L shm does everything everything is might not in the summer or maybe in the winter every person has a in this world means a purpose a job a meaning a calling and when you fulfill your call your purpose and you're done you leave the world which means when somebody leaves this world we have to understand that they fulfill the purpose when we see a child dies the the the the comfort that we need to take from that he he or she finished a purpose we should be happy for that they graduated but every person has a purpose no such a thing that you came to the world just to eat drink sleep and watch videos on Facebook you came with a purpose now if I will now make a questionnaire in each and every one of you do you know your purpose how many will you answer and then I'll ask you another question are you fulfilling your purpose how many of you will answer so that's another big question that you need to internalize and you need to go home with that and saying a am I fulfilling my purpose B what is my purpose and by the way the purposes changes all the time because when you are a young mother your purpose right now is to be a mother for 20 years or 30 years and then when the kids grow up then purpose changes purposes change all the time but nevertheless we all have Aid in this world the that the purpose of these 24,000 students like I told you was to give on the Tora and they failed very very simple the quote says Tor if you don't have the respect to one another you'll never be able to give over the Torah and that's it now why specifically in this time so we do have a that during the from we read the ethics of the fathers and the entire is about refining myself it's not about sins it's not about it's not about anything but refining myself in the and the introduction of the famous book of sh he says that the main purpose of us in this world is to refine my characteristics T it's different terms to that but T the refined refinement of character that's really what we need to focus on the to will give me the R the Tora will give me the ability but nevertheless I need to refine myself so if I'm born with anger and sadness or depression or impatience or whatever it is we all have a long list of bad qualities then I need to work on it and if I have to work on the Mida of anger then Hashem is going to put in my world in my life all the people who would make me angry all day long if I lose my temper I I didn't do anything if I work on my myself then I'm starting to apply my so doing P from P to it's a period that our sages have instated that this is a good time for why the winter we're kind of like cold and we're in the house we're H hibernating in the in in the house at summer everybody okay so short sleeves let's go out to the beach to the pool to have fun to camps and now you're going out to the world there's going to be a lot of danger out there so take with you a good charge of of M and go out to the warm months of the Summer where the yet also becomes very warm so our s says now is a good time to learn how to refine myself therefore the that the students of that's when they died Tora they had they had the midot was a problem their characteristics was the problem but it says if you are familiar with if not start reading it it's very inspiring I can tell you as extreme that can change your life if you follow what it says if you read it just to pass the time it's one not going to affect you but if you read it in order to apply it will change your life now if you are familiar great if not I will tell you it says constantly in a repeating way in the mishna he used to say and referring to the T to the sage that was giving the quote or teaching the mishna comes a big question why do you have to add so many just say he said why do you have to add I get such a big deal out of it the answer is that each and every one of these that said whatever quote M when it says means that he was that thing and then if I tell you be patient then first I have to be patient for 60 years then I can teach you about patience Comm now he tells you that was the Great a a advantage of these T that they lived their life a certain way then they come and say this is my examples this is my experience this is what I have to give over so the period of the is here for us to fix I need to fix whatever I have between you and you and my friends and the Tor and MIT is one thing the the between me and another person is totally different more than that when I fix between me and another person what's called Ben that's when I'm going to bring the most she the energy the abundance to help me with most of us I need some type of power to help me with that so what's the is that on P that's the highest highest highest day in the calendar when a we can do CH when I can understand everything can be corrected doesn't matter if it's 40 years ago 30 years ago 20 years ago yesterday if you believe that you can ruin believe that you can fix so right now we're standing in a very very asici time on one hand very very powerful Day to a point the great and great says he should treat it like a almost like a y add be dressed nicer many have the custom that they eat matah now in Ben in the evening they eat matah a little bit of matah each one has their own custom if you can then there's a suff if you can wash for the matah right now what the right thing to do is to wash for bread and then eat the matah cuz there is all sorts of questions if I can now wash for a matah they say not even on on on matah throughout the year but not only that can I do another P so better to wash on bread to make a nice meal and then eat a little a little matah which we know the Z says that matah is the bread OFA that gives youa in in in outside of Israel you have two days the first day the matah ISA and the second day the eating the m is in Israel we combine it in one day so when I when I hate another person then I bring down the name to the world I bring down judg ments to the world and I basically ruin it for us and for everybody else so if we want to take all the key points that we were discussing now first of all I have an approach not it's not that I it's I'm not the Pioneer I'm just saying I adapted that approach and that approach is that actions speak louder than words and the Biblical term to that is wake up talk is cheap I can give you now all the American slog what do you do what did you do how do you apply what you learned to actions when is your learning great when you know how to apply it to an action when I became observant my dear friend bought me a present I have it up until today in my fing bag underneath the he brought me a beautiful version from the letter of he told me read this and I would read it every day as it says in the in the letter read this again every day no it says once a week if you can't if you it says once a week if you can't to read it once a day see you already you'll relate with what I'm saying he says there go through what you learned and see how you can apply it in your life if the brought you to learn a certain thing today the brought you to learn something today what are you going to take from this lecture depends on you in five minutes I'm done and I'm heading to my next lecture the question is what are you going out from the room with why did you come you came to hear and now I'm telling you now apply cuz every day that you learn something that's what the says looking what you learn and how you can apply it into your life so the trick here is not how you came in is how you go out whether you came here to support to be inspired to listen to learn maybe this's good food I didn't see uh but the right answer is I came to learn and to apply so we learned for the last hour now apply we are in such a place right now in the world in the time in this generation that we are under attack from all directions we're under attack from the hate towards the nation but don't worry it's all I call it it's all for our good but nevertheless now I'm attacked with all the challenges that hasem is throwing to my direction and every day they come in boatloads the challenges it doesn't end the one ends three new ones come call it's all for our good wants you to be alert he wants you to be on the edge of your seat and he wants you to understand the messages that he's sending you and he wants you to apply call it's all for our good so when you're seeing the disasters around the world and you have to take a deep breath it's going to become worse before the Redemption will come it will have to become worse worse it doesn't mean worse for us don't get me wrong by saying I'm telling you it's going to come worse for us it's going to become worse I might stand over here it's not nothing's going to hit me a thousand will fall on one side a 10,000 on the other side nothing will come to you so I'm not worried or afraid of anything I have AEM I'm not worried in Israel I'm not worried in America I'm not concerned it's not in in my place to be concerned about anything that's going on in the world right now my concern is how am I serving a the best way possible and how am I inspiring people to do more CH and that's it that's my concern Trump Biden is going to win what's going to do with me well the situation in Israel the situation is bad there's no other way of saying it it's never been that bad and it's going to become worse because has wants to destroy has wants to destroy all the evil go controlling the world for thousands of years and to prepare the world for mashia so you have a reason to be upet or sad or angry or afraid you see the gulan folding in front of your eyes but when it comes to my own personal challenges Shem is cleaning each and every one of us when I sin when I speak L and many cases I don't speak the L I hear it just as guilty and many other situations we're not going to lay now on the table all the problems that we do but we're not that it's all blue so I have to understand that when I sin when I go against Hashem it brings on me impurity what's the whole concept of P if a person [Music] was means he was impure means he was far away he couldn't make it to but the reality is it's me and you that we live a life of Torah and here and there we stumble that's tamish something small if you catch it on the point and you do your correction okay nothing happened and there's no such a thing that a will live in this world and won't sin you did a little sin I will fix everything that's that the nees was imputed by an act all you need to do is do cha at the end of the day comes the the the last moments of the day finish with it it's one of the most important prayers of the day cuz during the day you don't have much the Yeshua D to pray 11:00 at night you by yourself do you do but when it says we understand that they were far away they couldn't make it to says means means a path far it means they're so far away from hem that the path is so far then they can't do theban p they have no chance of doing any CH or going out of their Exile because they're so far away so what are you are you Shalom you're just so I have to understand when I do something wrong is going to turn on a red light a warning light so my challenges and difficulties half the time is just to keep me in good paste half the time it's my actions I do so comes this wonderful powerful once of a year day and happens to be that we're all together here now how do you take what we learned in the last hour and you pry it into your life that's your challenge right now take everything that I said in this hour and luckily for you it's recorded you can review it 50 times now and internalize every word that I say to understand I have to apply something in my life my challenges won't disappear you fulfill or you complete one thing the next one will come says there's no peace in this world right now you relaxing G now it's work and now mashia is coming then we have to catch up for what whatever we didn't do the last 20 30 years so really what I would say to you is what I started any nothing is unfixable I have the ability to fix any situation and when I do I go to the next step it doesn't mean life will become easier and happier challenges you'll have till the last day you die a few years ago we initiated uh it's not really a Yesa but I have where I live in spat a small group of older men all older than me and men who become 60 years old 70 years old I'm the youngest of all them I'm 50 they're all older than me so there was one there's one man who comes and attends the classes he's in his mid 80s and one one of the days as we talk after class we eat and he says you think your challenges ends when you're 70 or when you're 80 no he quoted then his age I don't remember 83 84 he's like I have challenges up until today if it's not this then it's that till your last breath you're going to have challenges and when I told you before that this day the 29th day of the OM is connected to David David knew how to suffer he knew how to accept it he knew it's from AEM and he knew how to rise up he knew how to brush off all the dirt we read that every every Friday in fourth paragraph shake up all the dirt you did a sin you did something wrong you fell on the ground pick up yourself Shake something happened in your life okay move on so David is the is the essence that gives me the to say can I compare my life to I hope nobody here in this room can compare their life to David we all have challenges I know I also have a lot of challenges I have a lot of difficulties too I'm in the game with you it's not that I'm sitting like this all day long I'm licking honey all day long I also have kids to deal with and I also have to deal with and many other things but I take from David and many other great sages that that's part of life the Rhythm of Life is I go up and down and I up and down and I came here to this world to to deal with struggles wants to see how I'm dealing with the struggles and when you deal with them the right way they don't diminish but they kind of quieten down a little bit doesn't bother you as much as it Shalom is so my strong recommendation and wish for you is that take everything that we learned today and find a way to apply it I strongly believe I said it years ago in all lectures that I gave and I still say that I strongly believe that every person that attends any class not just my class is under the private in invitation of Hashem which means that each and every one of you were invited from Hashem to come here many wanted to come couldn't find the place couldn't get off work had to be with the kids KS and many other things look how many empty seats there are which means the she wanted you here so he made it available for you how come you saw the ad and somebody else from the entire area here didn't see the ad wants you here it's not only me any she that you're going to go any class that you're going to go and forget about classes any person you bump into the street there's a message there there's a here don't brush off the person so fast K put a person in your life this moment whether it's your husband whether it's your child whether it's a random person on the street everything is the kadh putting the right people in front of you to direct you where you need to go so I strongly believe that in every place that I go and I look at the faces of everybody I get some type of satisfaction to know oh so that's the guest list okay obviously whoever wasn't invited is not here so my words and my advice is that we have to apply what we learn take the talm take what you learned and transform it into action which means that today you have to do something something you have to do some type of a Chua my recommendation do a nice meal tonight make a nice meal or go out wash for bread that you make a nice sud if you have if you can eat matah better mat not the square ones that's not real matah you want like a handmade matah and make the day a little bit special a little bit more happier ignore right now your issues saym is giving me today special energy that I can wake up rejuvenated and okay what do I need to do instead of falling to Des spair and and and hugging my pillow and covering myself with a a blanket what what can I do I have an opportunity the main part is to take a good decision and say okay today I'm taking on myself a b and c and don't try to conquer the world because too much you don't do nothing my recommendation in unless you don't do it some of you were at the lecture yesterdaytime when people come and tell me they have health issues emotional issues psychological issues fears anxieties etc etc first question do you think and the the most that I get answered is no oh the answer is oh yeah yeah yeah yeah once a or I just say no that's not that's not I am not going to elaborate too much if you need to take something on yourself that's my recommendation today why because when you do it's when you sit you uh make an account of the entire day how was my day oh I owe money to so and so oh I said that to that person maybe I insulted her oh I forgot to pay this and I forgot to do that you do cha for the end of the day cuz the next day you don't remember anymore few years ago I come home late at night after the conversation with my wife she tells me oh by the way remind me I owe $40 to the neighbor because I didn't have cash to pay the cleaning lady and I borrowed the money from the neighbor so I gave her $40 says go and pay it right now I no it's 10:00 at night just she has many kids she's not sleeping go pay it right now no no no I'll pay it tomorrow why are you so particular that I'll pay it now cuz I told her cuz tomorrow you'll forget to pay her cuz you have a lot of your mind you have kids to take care of you have responsibilities this is not such a big thing $40 and you'll forget to pay her tomorrow and after a day or two you know what's going to happen she's going to start looking at you in the hall why is she paying me I gave her $40 so she can give it back to me and two days later you know that you didn't pay me and now I give her $40 she didn't pay me another whole building and everybody's looking at you why could you pay the $40 just pay it now finish with it tomorrow you will forget and now what's going to happen a year will pass down she remembers you I actually owe $40 and you don't remember $40 what's $40 it's like who remembers that so that's one example out of many that you need to take care of things right away and that's the power of that I sit at the end of the day no phone no kids no headache no nothing you me and AEM now do read the the word read the text accept on yourself that's the real not to say and to go to bed accept on yourself do you do that every night I will guarantee to you now I will sign to you you'll see a huge change in your life not once consistent but you'll see a huge change in your life you'll be more relaxed more happy less worried health will be stronger you'll sleep much better I'm going to be tossing and turning and sweating and up and down and waking up tired and many other things I guarantee to you that I'm I'm I hold by what I say so maybe today is a good opportunity for each and every one of you to say okay maybe c m is a little bit above my ability but I'll start with something the point is that you want to leave this room a different person if you came to the room the same way you're going out I don't know if you if you even get the of learning T because you didn't listen and if you didn't listen and you didn't apply what you learn there's not much of a of the learning of the Torah here besides the opportunity we are in one of the most powerful days on the calendar I know it's not celebrated that much but with no doubt it's one of the most powerful days on the calendar so you have an opportunity today to change your life and I'll give you in a little secret if you change your life you are going to affect 20 30 other people by default your spouse your kids your parents your neighbors cuz you are a better person you are nicer to be around you're more patient you're more loving you're more caring so you affect other people why would you want to affect other people in a positive way so I learned in my past when an opportunity comes to you away you grab it you don't ask too many questions you grab it so I will wish you all besides and I wish you and I'll even go to the extent of wishing you a good but I'm also going to wish for you success that you actually hold what I said and with that I will wish you to be able to apply it and to change your life that hasem should bless you with true happiness CU even even when I'm challenged with so many things I can find happiness in everything I'm not belittling any challenge you have don't get me wrong I'm just saying that even in the darkest place you can still find light and if you look for that light you'll find light in that place and that's how you're going to light up that darkness and the pain will go a little bit less and the the the discomfort will be a little bit eased so I'm going to finish by first of all thank you for your patience and for listening that's H that's H has to be re thanked and I also going to wish you and most of all I'm going to wish you all to find true happiness in your heart and to see the good and the kindness that hasem does for you to be truly healthy to be truly in peace that you should fulfill your purpose in this world that you should find your goals that you should be able to affect many people that your chuva should be accepted that you should be a evem a true servant to hem and be blessed by the generosity of hem and to have the ability even if I walk in the valley of darkness which is that's what we're walking in I have no fear cuz you with me but more than that I want to just touch one little thing about the is I I I won't have any fear of the evil but I ask you to twist it a little bit and says same letters just you read it different that you should not see evil in in anything you should not see bad in anything will take me through the valley of darkness we all going through Darkness I don't see that it's evil as says it's for your good and then we need you just to appreciate it and thank hasem for all the good that he does for us thank you for the opportunity and before you leave to a quick announce an ments a if you look at the table in the back I have a book that I wrote about it's a powerful powerful guide even though I know L people says we're halfway through I don't know how good you're doing so far besides we have next week so you can purchase the book H today more than that in two words I have had and have the long story but I'm going give you the two minutes of it uh many many years ago I had a dream to create my own wine for many different reasons K and and and many other things if you look all the great sages in history had Vineyards soem gave me a huge sco that I had a few years ago and I have a few Vineyards very very special Vineyards they're all on the border of Lebanon unbelievable and hasem gave me unbelievable to make my own wine it's my wine I I do everything this is not a pack Tre it's me but I made it to myself no offense so but now there was a great and we have a lot a lot of produce it happened in October 7 that all my Vineyards are on the border of Lebanon we picked 20 tons of grapes Under Fire as missiles are falling on front of us on top of us an Israeli tank comes out of nowhere breaks the Gate of the vineyard ruins half the vineyard and starts shooting into Lebanon and we're cutting grapes this wine is amazingly tasty all organic no sulfites and not only that my personal love is my spiritual partner he gave a blessing to all the wine all our produce it the wine is called an each brand has each one has a different name but the brand is anava so I have some of it left here that I brought from Israel you're more than
