Parshas Behar: 2 People, 1 Glass of Water...Priority in Halacha

this Torah class is brought to you by Torah anytime.com okay par Bahar this evening we have a very complex topic so to really fully grasp what we're going to learn this evening it's not enough to listen with a half an ear or even 99% today we're going to experience what we call critical thinking you know people could be involved in many different Endeavors in life and people could may have studied many disciplines but nevertheless if one has not trained his mind in the process of gamar logic their mind has not really been fully tuned and honed in to be able to think clearly and analytically so we're going to learn this evening is a lesson in what we call gamar thinking halic thinking but you have to play very close attention Okay the tells us very wellknown the tells us a story okay two people were going on the road they're in the desert and one of them has a jug of water okay beautiful wonderful story who cares that one of them has a a glass of water says the if they both are going to drink the water they're going to split the water let's say they have a 20 oz bottle of Poland Spring if ruan's going to drink 10 oz Shimon is going to drink 10 o they are both going to die the sun is scorching the heat is impossible if they both split the water they will both die if one of them drinks the water he'll have enough hydration to be able to reach civilization and he'll survive so now you have a great dilemma what do you do with the water right ruan's holding on to the water should he be a nice guy and split it what would the logic of that be they're both going to die should he take it for himself isn't that selfish should he give it to his friend that's like suicide what should he do darash p then P Advanced the following argument better that they both drink the water and they both die why how could one person witness bear to see the death of his friend if ruin drinks the water and Shimon is going to expire from dehydration and ruan's going to look and drink that water while his friend another yid dies how could a Jew bear to see another you dying especially at your own expense no says better they both should die than that ruen drink the water and see Shimon Die Why should anyone let them both die together but that ruen should live and bear to see his friend die no you can't do that that is what Ben patura argued and guess who agreed with him everyone it was unanimous all the agreed with until a great man by the name of stood up untila came and taught the following your brother should live with you which means like this yes you have to make sure your friend lives but only with you only if your life is taken care of first in other words what we learned from here my life takes precedence over anybody else that was the great teaching of RAB taught the world you come first yes you have to love your neighbor like yourself you have to be kind you have to be generous you have to be a good person you come first the person's own life comes first so you hear the case you have two people in the desert there's enough water for one of them if they both drink it they both die if one of them drinks it whole live the other guy will die P says let them both drink the water and both drop dead how could one Jew beer to see his friend's demise until RAB AA comes along and he says no you come first Raba says drink the water feel bad for your friend mourn him eulogize him bury him and move on that is what rabik says your own life comes first now he say what does that have to do with Pas Bahar because the p that RAB Dar comes from this week's para p says look at number two don't take usury don't take interest fear your God your brother should live with you you want to care about your friend care about yourself first that is the teaching re your life comes first okay a very important rule right a very important rule your life comes first don't try to save someone if you're going to risk your own life okay and we going to talk about that here's the problem problem number one is could someone explain to me what was Ben patura thinking Ben p is a wise guy right he's a smart man he's an intelligent person he's an Amira he has what we call dasra he has proper thinking what is the logic of both drinking the water and both dying it's like it's like from that's what they do in they don't know you know one guy could survive who do we give the water too it's like Po let's pour it out on the ground let's let's throw it out nobody should have the water I mean that doesn't make any sense unlogical at least let one guy live why should they both die what's Ben P saying understand reab says your life takes precence you drink the water but what does B say you should both die so we have a very important explanation of the NV in number seven in the the's commentary on the shelters and the says like this yes if if we both drink the water we're both going to die when what in a minute no before we get out of this desert in other words if one guy drinks the water he'll be able to travel 3 days and he'll survive if we both drink the water they're not going to drop dead immediately they'll both let's say live one day but they're not either none of them are going to make it out so Ben P says like this you never know both of you should drink the water you'll both extend your Life by 24 hours who knows in the meantime a helicopter may pass by you'll a text message SOS you'll make a fire and the smoke will call the nous uh Indian tribe on the other side of the river who knows what will happen the NV explains B holds you never know right you never know both of you should extend your life what we call temporary life then have one person live forever and the other person die immediately says then P they both should drink the water I it's in all likelihood neither of them are going to get out of the desert no let them both at least have the chance to survive then have one guy definitely live and one guy definitely die until RAB AA says no be selfish don't say you know what we'll both live for one day and who knows rabika says you got to take care of your own life first God gave you life your primary responsibility is to yourself once you've taken care of yourself you have to take care of someone else it's a rule inas when it comes to Saka when it comes to anything SOA holds even though if you give to drink to both of you you both may live a day but Reika says in all likelihood you're not going to survive neither of you going to survive what's the logic of you both dying says rabika drink the water what's the other guy going to do it's an unfortunate situation how do we passin what does the rambam say the rambam says absolutely nothing what does say about this issue says absolutely nothing so what do we do most like why so it's interesting brings down a couple of reasons why the gamar implies we Pas like R because the gar doesn't say Ben says Raba says says like this P gave an argument until came that implies until settling the matter for good until RAB AA came and closed the book on the issue once Raba came along to the world Raba said you come first Case Closed additionally there are those who say then benur never meant you're both obligated to drink the water and both die batur just meant that would be the pious thing to do the sanly thing to do the but not that you're required to do that so if you want to know what the is we like okay so far so good let's talk about the following case somebody comes over to you all these cases are theoretical a g of comes over to you a robber comes over to you puts a gun to your head he says we are shess otherwise I'm going to shoot you so what do you do do you viate the word of God or do you save your life so what do you do save your life as important as the word of God is human life Reigns Supreme a person's life is more important even than a specific commandment in what if someone comes and says speak lashara or I'm going to kill you as bad as lashara is you got to do it somebody says talk by or I'm going to shoot you so then you're going to have to talk you're going to have to what could you do someone's going to shoot you have to risk you don't have to risk your life not to talk by karash you don't have to okay what if someone comes over to you and says commit adultery or I'm going to kill you you have to give up your life someone says take out go to the Buddha store whip out you know a little doll of the Buddha and bow down to the Buddha or I'm going to kill you you have to give up your life what if somebody says to Ruan Ruan kill shine or I'm going to kill you does is Ruan allowed to I don't want to pick on that name right um let's say somebody comes over to Abraham he says abah I'm goingon to kill you unless you kill y don't so what's is a person allowed to save their skin by killing their friend no you're not allowed to kill someone else to save your skin so gamar asks why not why can't I save why can't I save my skin to why can't I uh save my skin by killing someone why can't I save my skin by killing someone why not so thear says a logic the logic is like this right now you have a dilemma should I save my life by killing Should Abraham save his life by killing or Should Abraham say you know what I will be killed so on the one hand AB says look I'm allowed to violate anything in the Torah to save my life why can't I kill y to save my life says the G logic you know what the logic is says who says your blood is redder maybe the blood of that guy is rder in other words what are you doing you want to save your skin by killing Shimon Ruan wants to save his skin by killing Shimon so what's Ruan saying ru's saying the value of my life is greater than the value of shimon's Life how do you have a right to say that how do you know whose life is more valuable in the eyes of God well I learn more than him and I'm more important than him and I'm this and that no you can't play God says the gamar one may not kill someone to save their own life because who says that my blood is rder than his blood you get the logic you can't play God you can't put a value on human life you can't put a value you in life you cannot kill someone to save your skin fine that's a well-known gamar right I think most of you have heard that before you can't kill someone to save your life who says your blood is R than his what about the following case someone comes over to you and says you stand there like a gum I'm gonna push you someone comes over to to Abraham he says Abraham I'm going to push you on baby and you know Y is going to be killed but you're not going to be the RO you're not going to be the murderer because I'm pushing you you just stay there like a goam you don't move do whatever you want you could be whatever on your phone while I'm doing it you could be uh writing a letter you just passively stand there while I push you on to the next guy otherwise I'm going to kill you you hear the case you can't actively kill someone to save your life could you passively kill someone to save your life could you stand there again right a guy comes over he says either I kill you or stand there and allow yourself to kill someone else are you allowed to save your skin no by passively killing the next guy no absolutely yes a Jew a Jew is allowed to save their own skin in other words what do you mean you're standing you're not sa you have an opportunity to save another Jew's life more than that you are the instrument that is killing the next Jew no you could passively stand there like a Golem save your skin and be the instrument that kills shim says T San and andar and in this case the logic of who says that my blood is redder works the opposite way in other words I can't actively kill you to save my life because I can't take into my own hands a decision that my life is more important than your life but what if I'm not making that decision what if someone else is making that decision the guy says either I kill you or I'm going to push you on to the next guy so why do I have to let myself be killed who says his blood is rder than my blood so I'm allowed to stand there and allow myself to be pushed because what I should say no kill me why should who says his blood is better than my blood I can take the decision into my own hands and kill him to save my skin but if I'm not making that decision if I'm passive I'ma I'm just a passive Stander by I'm the even though I'm the instrument in his hand I'm all to stand there and allow myself to kill someone to save my own skin that is what tus writes throughout take a look in number five T says like this the murderer himself when does someone have to give up their life not to kill someone actively but if you're not doing an act you're standing there and they're throwing you onto a child and the child is being crushed it is logical you're not obligated to give up your life why because you know what I could say why should I give up my life who says his blood is better than my blood who says that the blood of my friend is maybe my blood is in other words I can't shoot Ruben can't shoot shine to save his life because who says Ruben's life is more valuable but if Ruben's goingon to be the instrument to kill shim then Ru say I could be the instrument I'm not deciding that my life is more valuable why should I give up my life who says his life is more valuable in other words there's a logic to say a human being cannot take into his own hands a decision whose life is more valuable and therefore if you're not acting you could just passively sit there and allow whatever happens to happen but you can do it you can kill but you could be passive okay you got it this is just the beginning you can actively kill someone to save your life you could passively kill someone to save your life understand then two people walking in the desert Ruan has the water what does Ben patur say split it why how could anybody bear to see their friend die what's the problem why can't I take the water for myself what's the problem why can't I save my life by drinking the water am I actively killing you of course not I'm not actively killing you I'm not shooting you you're dying of thirst any time we learned I can't actively kill you to save my life but I could passively kill you to save my life so why wouldn't Ben patura say drink the water shimon's going to die I could even be the instrument that kills Shimon so certainly I could drink the water and Shimon is stuck with that water also why does Rua have to come and say you know why Ruben could drink the water cuz Ruben could say I come first I'm more important and let's say ruen can't say that even if ruen was equal to sh ruen could still drink the water you know why why not but I should give it to you who says your blood is better than my blood in other words if I'm not making the decision if I'm not actively killing you then of course I'm going to save my skin it doesn't matter what the ramifications are what the repercussions are I can't actively kill you because that's saying I'm more important than you but if I'm not actively killing you if I'm just the instrument in the other guy's hand or if there's only one cup of water why can't I drink the water at your expense what do I need RAB AA you know the great Raba comes into the b n he says I come first forget about I come first of course you could drink the water I'm not pass I'm not actively killing you I'm passively killing you yeah if you get this if you could say over this question you're worth a million bucks this is a very complicated question but we're saying it very clear okay again we've established based on the logic of who says that your blood is better than mine that I can't save myself by actively killing you but I could save myself by passively killing you so if that's the case why isn't it obvious that two people in the desert the guy with the water he could drink it who says shim possibly wait until R is going to drink his water if ruin drinks the water why is Shimon going to die any because of anything ruin actively did to him no it's because he's stuck in a circumstance that he has nothing to drink so the same way ruin could be the instrument in the gu's hand to to kill shim certainly ruen could pick up the water and drink it I what's going to happen to Shimon it's not ru's problem maybe there's a problem no one that that is going to lead Shimon to kill Ru to get his water to drink it shimon's a Nicea he's an no if you're worried if you know if Shimon is standing there with you know but you don't have to okay whose question is this this is the of in the again the question is if you could be the instrument in one's hands to save your skin then why can't I drink the water I'm not actively killing you I'm drinking the water and now you're stuck in a situation where you know you're going to die but I didn't do that to you okay so rmha answers this question with the following brainstorm it's like a flash of lightning okay you have the two end cases clear I can't actively kill you to save my skin I can passively save you to say I can't I can passively kill you to save my skin no no active yes passive I'm going to carve out a middle case you ready for this case like this you see your friend he fell into a pit there's snakes in the pit yeah the snakes are big teeth you smell the Venom coming out if this guy remains there for three more seconds he's dead meat luckily there's a ladder so he's just going to climb up the ladder and get out the problem is you're standing on top of the ladder and there's a GU saying like this either I'm going to kill you or kick away the ladder are you actively killing the guy or are you passively killing the guy on the one hand you could say I'm not killing him who's killing him the snake he has the way to get out I'm removing his method of being saved so ultimately he's not I'm not killing him actively it's indirect or do we say no to actively remove his method of being saved that's akin to Bloodshed that is like murder in other words I can't shoot someone to save my skin for sure I can't stand there doing absolutely nothing and have myself being pushed on someone to save my own skin but what about a case where somebody's threatening me to kill me unless I actively destroy someone else's method of being saved says it is obvious not so obvious but he says it's obvious that you have to give up your life not to kick away the ladder where the person could be saved why is that different than not having to give up your life and you could stand there and have someone push you on the next person cuz if you're just standing there you're not doing anything you're not acting you're not doing AA you're standing there completely passive the next guy is pushing you onto the so oh are you a good guy you're not a great guy but you're allowed to do it to save your skin but but says to actively remove his method of being saved that is like murder oh that is like murder you can't do that to save your skin okay say m two people going in the desert Ruan has a cup of water if ruan's gonna drink that water is he passively killing shiman or is he actively removing the way that shimon's skin could be saved he's actively removing it's like removing the ladder it's exactly analogous to someone kicking away the ladder from from the guy in the pit what but in that case the other guy has a ladder and here's my water yeah but if in an ordinary circumstance I would be required to give you that water because I have responsibility to save you so since I have responsibility to save you the fact that I own it is meaningless I am obligated to give it to you once I'm obligated to give it to you it's like you have the ladder standing there and if I'm going to drink it it's like kicking away the ladder say I can kill someone to save my skin I can sit there like a gum to save my skin but I also can't actively kick away your method of being saved from a dangerous situation and since I can't do that Ben patura is 1,000% correct why we're both in the desert I have water I drink it I live you I give it to you you live so what am I going to do I'm going to drink the water this water is your ladder by me drinking the water it's actively removing your method of being saved I can't do that to save my skin so why is vura not correct and Raba says my water is not like the ladder in your pit you know why cuz it's mine and if it's mine it has no connection to you you can't view Shimon can't say don't drink my water don't drink it it's my ladder say it's not your ladder I own the water my I come first that's why you need Raba to say I come first because if we were both equal if if we both had equal responsibilities toward each other then you know what the would be I can't drink the water because it's like kicking away your ladder so you hear what Raa is saying Raa has carved out an in between case you can't actively kill someone to save your skin you could passively kill someone to save your skin what about actively removing your method of being saved that's the is this gar this Kamar is the medium between actively killing someone and passively killing someone and Raa says act um actively removing his method of being saved is analogous to what kicking away your ladder okay let's just Define one more thing okay what is the logic why can't I kill you to save my skin what's the logic of that why can't I kill you to save my skin because I'm taking into my own authority that my blood is R than your blood so what what's in a and the T to say my blood is I'm allow to wear shinness to save my skin I'm allow to speak lushan heart to save my skin why can't I kill you to save my skin ah so you ready Rashi explains that you know what the logic is the logic is like this the logic is you know why I could wear shinness to save my life I could wear shinness to save my life because as valuable as it is to listen to Hashem Hashem values life more than a specific Mitzvah Hashem values life more than lar more than Li Jewish life is of utmost importance but if someone comes to me and says shoot shim or I'm going to kill you so what I'm going to say oh I really don't want to do this a but life is so important no you can't invoke the concept that life is so important you know why cuz either way someone's going to die I'm allowed to wear shinness to save my skin cuz I could say life is more important than shinness but what are you going to say life is more important than killing either way someone's going to die so now think about it if I kill sh Ru kill sh sh's going to die if ruin doesn't kill shine he's going to die so either way someone's going to die so what should ruin do why add a a into the equation also so don't do the AA that's the logic the logic is you know why you can kill someone to save your life because normally you're allowed to do any a think of it this way life is worth $100 and a Mitzvah is worth $10 let's say so I am allowed to violate an a to save my life because my life's 100 bucks and this is only 10 but if either way 100 bucks is going to be lost because either way someone's going to die why add insult to injury and throw an a into the question into the equation why kill you and do the a of killing you should get killed yourself what about so if that's the logic then I should not be allowed to kill someone even passively yeah what about someone who not Jewish they fall that's a very important question we value all human life and for the specific we're going to speak about it after why can't weo this um extend both lives and rely on maybe a helicopter will come and save them no that's uh you can't have on someone else's account someone comes to you for what get a job have in God that is for you not to tell the next guy right so so that that's that's not into in the equation okay so the question is if human life is of most importance and I either way someone's going to die so how could I do the AA why am I allowed to passively kill you why am I allowed to passively kill you if either way someone's going to die why what why throw an AA into the equation of passively killing you so you have to say that there's no AA passively killing someone I'm not the murderer he he's the murderer he's pushing me my AA is not saving you there is no AA of not saving someone if it means your own life is at stake okay you're not required to save another person person if it means your own life so what do you mean but he's about to die you're not required to save him if it means risking your own life okay so basically what we've done so far is we've created a very subtle uh very fine Middle Ground between active and passive okay now I want to move on to another case okay we once discussed this this uh topic before when we spoke about organ donation right and we said like this is the person allowed to risk their life to save their friend are you allowed to risk your life put your life in jeopardy to save your friend and the exact case is like this the governor comes over to you and he says that real that nice hand of yours you see this saw in my hand either I am going to kill your friend or I'm going to saw off your hand yeah it's not such a pleasant share right either right do you have to allow your hand to be S off cut off to save your friend's life now is anything going to happen to you yes let's say nothing let's see if the best doctors right there there were they're ready to you know close up the wound do you have to give up your pinky to save your friend's life no no you don't have to why a number of different reasons the says you have it on your sheets we once spoke this out that a person is not required to give up a limb to save their friend one reason being the torah's ways are the torah's ways are Pleasant the Torah would never require you to do such a difficult thing to save someone else's life sayar Advance what if it's a matter of risking your life to save your friend are you allowed to risk your life to save your friend are you allowed to you want to be a good person you want you're not allowed to you're not allowed to a what are you says you're you're a foolish Pious person you're a lot of Pious people they think they're doing the right thing they think they're being good no you're not allowed to do it you have to worry about your own life that's what we just learned froma your saake life takes precedence over your friends V life but what do you mean you know chances are nothing will happen to me you're not authorized to give to risk your life to save your friend by the way thei disagrees we want to had a share on this and we hold like the Bley fine so you're not what would you say about the following case you have one pill and you have two people that could be saved this pill is a life-saving pill yeah you need to know if you're pharmacist right yeah you have one pill there are two people one guy may die may not die the other guy definitely will die or you have one cup of water one guy will definitely die if you don't give it to him the other guy might die and might not die who should you give it to was the again no you don't you have you have ex you don't need the pill yeah so who do you give the pill to the guy who definitely needs it or the guy who might need it of course so I understand if you have to give the pill to the guy who definitely needs it then why why can't I risk my life to save you after all definite is more valuable than maybe so why am I not allowed to risk my life to save your life definite is much more important than maybe that's why if I don't know who to give it to I give it to the guy who definitely needs it so if I'm a maybe and I might need it and you definitely need it I should give it to you no you know what the difference is if I'm if I'm a third person and I don't know who to give it to of course I give it to the guy who definitely needs it and not the guy who maybe needs it but if I'm the maybe and you're the definite keep it then you the maybe keep you're allowed to keep it and you have to keep it cannot be polic you can't risk your own you can't risk your life to save another Jew you no did sitz learns their advise you can't you can't about what danger oh if you're a soldier that's a good question how you I be a soldier doesn't depend on the asked that question I forgot about that you know says a fighting of War which is Mitzvah is by very definition that mitzvah to risk your life that's the definition of the Mitzvah but it has to be if you're just you know I want to be if you're not involved in M mitvah you can't risk your life we once spoke about we once touched on this Roy himself on a grenade to protect his so are we going to learn out from what this person saers he saved five people yeah yeah what about the two tablets let's say you know so one second if somebody is saving um a number of people that may be different but in general one is not allowed to risk their life to save someone else not allowed to what if Rabbi Rabbi or their parent in Israel what might be different it might be different might be different there one may be allowed to give up their life to save someone don't understand very tough question okay now I want to talk about a tougher question okay you ready for this okay three people walking in the desert one guy has water but he's hydrated he's on IV he's taken care of he's attached to like there's a Poland Spring uh machine and he has like IV stuck into it he'll be hydrated for the next month he has one cup of water two people who does he give it to so this is you find interesting who does he give it to would it beus between R and benur would benur say one cup of water two people let them both drink in and they both die and what would RAB AA say re only said you're allowed to drink it because it's yours but here you're a third person so maybe in this case RAB say where you're a third person with a cup of one you have two people everyone would agree you should spill it out and they should both die or both drink it half and they or they should both drink it and both drop dead you know who passin that way why let's think about it if there two people in the desert there are two people in the desert and one of them has a cup of water why does Rea say I could drink it why doesn't he agree of vemp that we should both drink it I could drink it because it's mine but in this case I'm a third person I don't need the water and there are two guys over here who should you give it to Ruan and what's going happen to Shimon give it to Shimon what's going to happen to ruin so who you going to give it to who are you going to give it to you give it to ruin ruin can't drink it because he would only be allowed to drink it if it's his but it's not his so he'd have to get the shim says the in number 15 has a picture Evena would agree you give it to both and they both die the only reason Raba says you could drink it is why yours cuz yours but if it's not mine then I give it to both of you by the way this is a perfect lesson you know there's a there's a rule that the laws of the T are exactly the opposite of what you would think naturally the exact opposite if you if you read you say hey I think just the opposite right you hear this now that's what the k writes in his footnotes Onis the first first however is not so sure about this because in his footnotes on he says not like this says doesn't make sense to say that if you're a third person you give it to both of them no you should give it to at least one of them let one of them live who should you give it to does age play a factor that's a good Pointes madana number 29 Sim age does not play a factor and deciding who to give something to what about if you're a k yeah you know after the lastek maybe I shouldn't say this right good you know remember the Titanic was going so they said who save first right so that's how you know what is a just the [Laughter] opposite man takes precedence now not for everything there's certain things women take precedents for for a number of [Laughter] things what about two people on aen takes precence over Ley one's a Ley one's is give the water to the Ley one guy is a m and one guy is in a sin you give it to the m what if the m is a and the you give it to the over do these Supply nowadays no right in not only because of last week's share because says right but even aside from that writes number 19 that which the tell us that what that a precedes a a precedes is and so forth very difficult to follow that nowadays just imagine you have two guys in the pit and you can only bring one of them you want to come out yeah yeah yeah let me ask you a question uh do you remember did your father ever take five silver coins uh for the Redemption he said why what are you talking about get me out of here no this very important question did your father ever buy the first alyia get me out of here right you're can give him an interview with like or then imagine they're both equal so you say you know what does it say you don't know okay shim what you know you going to give them a you give them a test you're going to start submitting you know okay here here's your test with a number two pencil the other guy you send down the pit a test whoever gets a higher Mark is going to you're going to save him what time did you get to the rabbi Shar Wednesday night 8:32 and you you know and you're going to start you're going to have a bed who's who's yeah uh with respect to Ruben and Shimon yeah you said well it's my water yeah there for uh I it's my I take residence over right what if you have a different middle ground where ruen is holding shimon's water oh so but if Ruan owns it if Ruan owns the water then uh then it's ruan's there's an interesting question could Shimon steal the water to save his life after all I'm allow to I'm allowed to steal to save my life in this case you're not allowed to steal to save your life because it's killing okay so what would the be three people one guy has the water and you have two people who need the water who do you give it to some say you give it to both you have to let them both die right you're a doctor you only have an hour of time you could do surgery on one of two people who do you do surgery on they're both Kim they both know 15 and a half blot of gamar right who do you do some would say you do half hour on one half hour on both and let them you know yeah the Kish has such a possibility the says that's what you do if you only have one glass of water to give to two people says he can choose has a possibility that you should you should choose okay two more minutes let me just tell you one question one question on this whole idea that your life takes precedence over your friend's life okay that's an important rule even if you look in the you know it says you should love your friend like yourself raan say not doesn't really mean that you know you shouldn't love your friend like yourself you come first raan says when the T says love your friend like yourself it's it's an exaggeration you come first okay who told us that the is and R says this is a great rule in the T there's one word that R adds that is completely Superfluous of course it's a great rule in the T what is a great rule in the encyclopedia it's a great rule in the comic books why would he have to say B just say this is a great rule why say says because when reaba got up on his feet and he said love your neighbor like yourself he didn't mean it cuz I don't have to love you like myself you know why cuz I come first if I have the water it's mine if I have the pill it's mine I come first re AO was talking about a limited circumstance when he said you have to love your friend like yourself you know what it is B when it comes to spirituality which means like this if I have one cup of water I drink it but what if I have one hour of time should I learn or should I teach you what if I have one day what if I have one opportunity should I learn with myself or should I give up of my own and spirituality to teach you says you know saying when it comes to the physical world I come first when it comes to the you come first so is you know why says it's only when it comes to water when it comes to Medicine when it comes to me me me me me selfish that's
