How To Make This Tisha B'Av the Most Meaningful Ever

this store class is brought to you by torahanytime.com who I'm a big admirer of uh I know really Wicken is very well respected throughout the community for his leadership and asham so it's a covered to speak for his kahila Corbin based hamiktokudash over the destruction of the based submitters that was torn down and trampled upon Esports I will eulogize every year a new eulogy these are the words that were blessed we're basically says that every year he'll compose a new eulogy a new morning mean that every year he will compose a new morning nothing new happened we know the story same old it is what it is the story is static nothing has changed the same English has been destroyed it lays in ruins for two thousand years nothing has changed with the situation what does mean that every year he will compose a new eulogy as last year this may be a very difficult tissue above last year we were coming after an entire year of a global pandemic financial crisis who doesn't know someone whose life was lost whose life has not been profoundly affected but we thought this year things were getting back to normal and then blow after blow Myron Stalin Surfside and to add insult to injury we have to sit on the floor on Tish above again and mourn and try to connect with the basic dust that we have a hard time relating to is there any way that the tragedies that we've experienced over the last year can somehow make Tisch above more meaningful to us and somehow connect with Tish above in a more profound way the medicine is salad the gamara tells us the story of a tsubras and a woman in the neighborhood of Robin camlio says she had a young child or mace and the child died and this woman would cry for her child every night would hear her voice says remember the destruction of the temple until his eyelashes fell out and the tamidam ram gamil basically had to ask her to relocate because it was causing the rebbe physical and emotional distress but what is very curious is that which the murderer says that one ram Gamaliel heard the Cry of the woman he too cried for the destruction of the base hamiktas what about the woman's cry reminded Ramen gamliel about the destruction of Basa miktas says with gifter from this matter if we learn a great principle that Ram gam Leo with his Discerning ear and his sensitive heart and his attuned soul he was able to perceive and Trace back the root cause of This Woman's personal Tsar that it wasn't an isolated situation it wasn't one particular difficult circumstance Ram gamlia was a was able to trace back the rash of herzar was horben Besame and therefore rangamleel instead of crying for this woman woman's personal tragedy he cried for the source of it namely the destruction of the basement basically from this matter says of gift that we see all personal suffering all personal challenge is rooted in the Corbin by the way the mission says at the end of says every day is the worst than the day before when the Dew Falls it's bad you know there's something called fruits you ever hear there's this thing in the store they grow on trees there's something called fruits people used to eat it why does anyone eat fruits anymore because they don't taste good because the day the base was destroyed fruit lost the states and by the way says physical pleasure it's not the same anymore rice the world plummets daily even from a physical standpoint life just gets worse and worse and worse everything about it every aspect of it says the monkey Rabbi just came back from the cover of the monkey River just a few days ago it says the monkeyach this is what rebelsa khalir means I will eulogize every year a new eulogy because every year since all trouble is rooted in the horben so the tragedy of the Corbin compounds every year every year the Korman based hamidosh is worse because it's not just horben it's Corbin and kovid it's not just Corbin it's Corbin and Stalin it's not just Corbin so every year you need to ride a new Cana you need to write akinah for kova 19 you need to write a kinna for Surfside it's part of Corbin Besame you need to write a kinner for imploding Society most people think that you know the great empires of yesteryear the Roman Empire the Greek Empire what happened a new Empire came and conquered them it's like however I never none of these Empires were conquered by Invaders the Roman Empire and most powerful Empire in the world imploded from within there was disillusionment with the government and the papal leaders and it crumbled from within people think you know America will stand forever no one's going to conquer America of course no one's going to conquer America it will implode from within which it's doing now like every great Empire nobody conquered Rome nobody's going to conquer America it implodes from within anti-government anti-established defund all authority that's what happened to every great Empire says with gift her all trouble is rooted in the corpsman remember last year new safer came out new shoutsky and they asked is could you dive in for a cure for kova 19. answered [Music] ulai F sharp but according to what we're learning the answer would be of course Corona unstable Society crumbling buildings should Inspire us to dab in for the source of all trouble according to of gifter a world without this I'm sure you've heard this idea I personally have trouble fully accepting this idea I don't think it's unanimously maintained that the basement is a source of all trouble is commentary to the Kenneth asks a brilliant question here's the question we commemorate so many tragedies on Tish above burning in the Swarm 1240 Crusades Holocaust there's one particular tragedy that there's no mention of in the Kines and that is 1648 1649 there's no mention of it and it's even stranger because they're actually slikers that were ripped in to commemorate that tragedy and they're recited on the 20th day of Sivan which is a fast day brought by the noise and why don't we incorporate this we incorporate all other tragedies why not to come and escape the grounds this is the question of Salvation he asked in a very powerful way I want to read to you his words I do not know why there are no Kenneth reciting on Tish above which commemorate the hamaninsky persecutions the kidneys that were composed to commemorate Kaminsky and which are ReSound the twins of Sivan are not said on Tish above that's the Kasha so I would like to try to tackle this question is ask a different question a very well-known question why is there no National fast day for the worst disaster ever to happen to the Jewish people the Holocaust by the way I'm gonna see that tomorrow there was a big philosophical dilemma where the tragedies of the Holocaust paralleled in Jewish history or are they unparalleled and the H koi Dash in his Russia he came in Hanukkah 1941 he writes Claus Israel strengthen yourself we've been there done that we've been through this before we've emerged Victorious we've emerged with aramuna we've been here before and then a year later he wrote an amendation to his Russia that was until 1942 but once the Germans instituted Mass exterminary systematic approach erratically cloudy soil this was unparalleled in Jewish history so this is the greatest tragedy ever attempt of people why don't we fast uh why don't we have a tightness to commemorate the Holocaust and ramosha answers and the Brisco rub gives the same answer but ramosha has a an amazing fadush says ramosa the reason why there's no fast day to commemorate the Holocaust is because all tragedy inflicted by the prevailing government is rooted in the horben what about this programs because that day we have a fast day on a different calendar date on the 20th day of Sivan so why don't we have a fast day for the Holocaust on a different day sister moisha there's a big Skillet between hamaninsky programs and the Holocaust any tragedy that is inflicted by the prevailing government as a result of the Corbin because power monarchy sovereignty belong to the Jewish people and then the Babylonians came and they took away our sovereignty and then the Persians took the sovereignty from the Babylonians that belonged to us and then the Greeks took it and then their own so any time the prevailing government is inflicting harm on the Jewish people that is a direct result of the Corbin but helenitsky pogroms was not inflicted by the government Kaminski was there were Rebels they were anti-government anti-government is not rooted in the horben the government itself when they inflict to harm that's rooted in the Corbin the reason there's no separate kindness for the Holocaust is because the Holocaust is rooted in foreign does that have anything to do with Tish above no how does a global pandemic what would Ramos say about meron Stalin it's got nothing to do with this about ramesha completely disagrees with this well well-known oft-quoted idea that all troubles Rudy and Tisha bombs so then how can a tissue box like this after Kaliso has been reeling from disaster after disaster be any more meaningful for us so I want to share with you an idea I once heard personally from and perhaps we could apply it to this day there's apostles on a good day be good on a bad day look what does this mean it doesn't know you ever wonder you make breakfast and you thank Hashem foreign that makes sense if you have food you need land to produce the food or to sell is the best land we'll thank our champ but then we thank Hashem thank you Hashem for Bismillah I just ate a salami sandwich why am I thanking Hashem for Bismillah and then I thank what's Tora got to do with with the food that I get then I thank him for taking me out of matzrayim what's this whole list of things that we're thanked to rebanish them we don't thank Hashem for Brits any other time of the day only after you eat bread what's the bread got to do with Bismillah why do we thank Hashem for you after you ate a sandwich why do you thank Hashem for all of these benefits after you ate bread sister Miller because here you have a guy he's the middle of the work day and he's going to grouchy lousy mood you know 12 o'clock in the afternoon the guys I don't know what he's doing he's trading stocks he's seeing a patient thank Hashem for Bismillah what's that all right now I'm too busy I'm not thinking that I don't really care well I'm not in a good mood why would I thank hashema that brings me Lana why would I think there's something about you now see the problem is that actions are within our control feelings less so emotions less so a person is not in full control of their emotions but after you ate a good meal you're in a good mood you know everybody knows don't talk to a man when he's hungry he's in a lousy mood you need something wait until after he's full after you flow you're in a good mood you're happy you have a good frame of mind we say rabbit we want you now to channel and harness your frame of mind your good mood and your feelings of well-being channel that good perspective you had to thank you for the benefits in your life because why waste your feeling of contentment on just being content channel that to thank Hashem to be grateful to our colors thank Hashem for Bismillah thank Hashem for Torah thank us don't forget to use my time now's the perfect opportunity don't let the opportunity go by the way the morale writes the same thing yaakovino hasn't seen Yosemite for 22 years it's probably the most emotionally charged moment of yakovino's life he's about to reunite with your safe so what what should he do he should give him a big hug he should give him a big kiss now what does yakovino do say Shima foreign so he could have wasted it and he could have hugged his son with great Ava avino didn't want the opportunity to be lost so he decided to Channel all of that emotion and all of that feeling and all of that love he was going to harness it and channel it towards so that all that love he was feeling toward yourself he would Channel it to shamavior that's what we do it and I believe this is a very good is what happened to mayron connected to Tish above it may have nothing to do with that it's the crumbling building in Miami Beach is that connected to hormones perhaps not was the woman crying in Ram gamliel's neighborhood that reminded him of the Corbin was that connected to the Corbin I would argue according to emotion I wasn't connected to the Corbin but Ram gamil understood human dynamic and that is you can't just turn on the faucet and say hey oh it's Tish above let me cry over the basement now oh it's it's the ninth day about good now I'm gonna sit on the floor and cry until and then I'm gonna yeah we don't work like that so you need a passage how do you get the emotions going in his neighborhood and when that almana would cry over her personal situation whose heart would not break hearing a woman cry over the loss of a son I was completely floored I give a sheer in Queens youngest are up to Garden Hills on Fridays and sometimes there's a sponsor so before this Friday sheer the guy it's a shirt to seniors most of the people they are grandfathers great grandfathers and the guy knows today's sponsor Jack is sponsoring today's shares to expect Jack sponsoring Leela nishmaster's grandfathers Jack is sponsoring Lilo nishmas his son and then you know your heart drops Daniel said whose yard side was tishabath huh and then the guy making the announcement said the guy's name was Donald and I'm also sponsoring nishmas my daughter and like that I'm ready to call it a day whose yard side was tishov just happened Friday that's tishabot for us was very smart he knew that you can't just turn on the faucet and cry it was born based on mcdosh but when he heard that woman cry and it broke his heart and he was crying he had the opportunity to channel those feelings toward the destruction of the basement and that's perhaps the PESA for us this year in tishov tuftshin payalif sometimes it's very difficult to connect with what it means not to have a basement somebody once came to the spasmus who said Reba I can't cry so summer said so cry that you're so far from that you're not able to cry but if you can't cry over the basement it's more Within Reach to be able to cry for families that probably we all know who perhaps have suffered the loss of loved ones and recent tragedies that happen be it in mayron be it in Surfside and be it throughout the last year and a half through the global pandemic and if we're able to focus on that and soften our hearts and open up the Wellsprings of Tears through these uh tragedies that we could relate to and we could connect to it could be a passage for us to feel a little bit more sour over the hormone thank everybody for giving me the opportunity to share some thoughts okay you've just experienced another Torah class brought
