Purim: Why Your Every Wish Will Be Fulfilled and More - The Torah of Rav Asher Weiss

this Torah class is brought to you by Torah anytime.com okay Mar I want to share with you some insights into the that I came across in the on there's a famous yii says regarding on we have a rule called anyone who stretches out his hand we give to him by that's if they're an and they're collecting for thems not if they're collecting for aad or you know somebody collecting for an institution either one either one but similar to that you have to check people out you don't have to no it's a free country you know you you should do your due diligence if you want to make sure you're using your money properly likewise we find in we're not even if during the rest of the year we're more careful where we give our money on we're sort of more liberal more free into who we give the money this is the statement but what's interesting is all the and the they bring down a remz that we we have the practice of likewise is that person be and anything from that's the famous idea of is also going on the re but ask this seems to be wishful thinking theor says that on whoever sticks out their hand you give to him oh you know who it's talking about it's talking about God it's little it's wishful thinking that's not what the is talking about the is talking about you anyone who sticks out their hand to you you need to give them from where do the derive it seems to be somewhat baseless to hopefully and wishfully oh it's talking about God no it's not you could hope it is you could write in your book it is but that's not what it's talking how do we know that it applies to in other words what is the of this tradition that a person could be anything from on says very beautiful theab says that when gave the to he basically shoved it down our throat right soar asks and makes a statement this is an escape hatch in other words a person doesn't have and hasem says what are you doing I told you not to do it and a person says okay you told me not to I never said yes I never accepted it yeah you did say yeah I said yeah when the mountain was suspended over my head but I never agreed to it and therefore I'm not liable right say but says not so fast we accepted it wholeheartedly and it was says now thear continues what does it mean thear quotes ra what did R say R said had a conversation with a saduki rabba was learning he was sort of crushing his hand he was B eeding blood was gushing forth from him and the sedi said to him I'm a paza you're a impetuous Nation your mouth spoke before what before thinking you said and R responded no we go B we don't ask any questions we to us we apply the rash explains that means we walk with God wholeheartedly like those who do out of AA and we rely on God that he's not going to ask of us anything that we can't handle meaning the saduki was wondering how are you Ma the without asking Hashem why didn't you ask Hashem God what is it going to say in the T maybe you're going to tell me not to talk by daving I don't know what it's going to say in the T no we relied on Hashem that whatever he asks us to do we be able to fulfill okay says every PM we reach MGA of kab where we say to Hashem Hashem we're not asking any questions of you we're not making any request you gave usra whatever you give us we were mael wholeheartedly without any no questions asked so since on of no questions asked meaning whatever you going to give us we're since we guarantee we say God give us a whatever you ask of us we're going to Grant your every request that's what happens every P we say to whatever you ask of me I'm going to Grant your request so toid Hashem says to us if you will grant my every request on Pam I will grant your every request on Pam but now we're we're uh we're a little bit in trouble and this is what we're worried about cuz if we're a little bit in trouble and we're we're able to Grant Hashem will grant our every request we're a little sheepish we're a little embarrassed I mean accept his request first before he grants our yeah I mean we're don't we on it comes through being on the madrea that we're wholeheartedly accept the T whatever God asks of us but the problem is we're a little bit embarrassed to really ask ask of hasem what we need isn't it a little bit uh we're hesitant so hasem says don't be hesitant drink a Bissell you won't be so embarrassed to ask me but now the question is but now if we drink too much then we might ask for who knows what says not too much that's the inion of drinking on per in other words to remove the inhibitions to be able to ask Hashem what what you really would like okay now on that note we're going to explain now two meanings of the so our first offering Today Was an explanation of the tradition that you could ask God for anything on pm and the explanation is since we reached to madga we sayem Hashem will do whatever you want you don't even have to tell us what it is Hashem says I will likewise do for you okay so what is the meaning of this concept such a strange idea such a strange concept and there are so many different perim but the simple explanation seems to be quite hidden and mysterious say the following we know on pm and actually I'm remembering now I heard him say this last year pm time I hear him say this personally um I was invited to eat um a shabas sud with him in the home of and this is what he said over a beautiful he said the whole year everyone's busy being politically correct let's just explain the following way say on per you should drink so much that you don't know the difference between and so the question is what what do we want the we want this little kid to drink and say I mean that's what seem to be saying drink so much that you don't know the difference between how could you how could we even bring ourselves to say such Words Answer is like this the whole year around everyone is focused on doing the right thing and saying the right thing so everybody comes to sh they say oh my gosh I have to be here now for 45 minutes shakas [Music] okay let me wind myself up okay I'm wound up enough that should give me 120 sh shuckles four bows two claps by SLU this amount of okay and I'm looking around oh everyone's finished one now okay now I'm going to take oh everyone's bowing okay everyone is busy the at theim everyone comes at this time oh everyone gives this present oh everyone says this everyone's always worried to do and say the right thing what's everybody else doing nobody does anything because they mean it nobody says anything cuz they mean it nothing that we do is heartfelt it's all a matter of just playing the game it's playing the game you know let me do what everyone else is doing lip service Hashem says I don't want your lip service the of is to reveal what's hidden in your heart I want it to be what you really mean and I want it to be coming out of your heart so you know what we're going to do we're going to get you so drunk that you don't know the difference between Aram and now you know what you're going to do you're going to say but not because everyone else is doing it and you're looking around and you're embarrassed not to you're going to remove all your inhibitions and you're still going to do the right thing you know why cuz you really meaning that's really who you are it's not that you're going to drink and you don't know the difference and you're going to say the wrong thing it's you're going to drink you don't no difference and you do the right thing at this time you're going to do it because you're not doing it from your SE it's not some calculated decision that you made so not to be embarrassed it has to flow from your heart who you really are that's the concept you're not going to act like uh improper or inappropriate you're going to act properly because that's what you really want to do not because everybody else is doing it the problem is rebi that if the whole year by Road you're doing what you just described when you drink a little bit and your inhibitions are removed you're likely to what are you going to say going to be worse than the the real bakha that you doing without and so so it's what kazal are recommending is you better make sure to work on yourself before p and on pm to reach the madga then now you're going to do it not because it's a calculated move but because you really are feeling it and you really on that madga okay here's another shot this one mros is going to like it's about another dimension of so there's an and and everybody's dancing and everybody's and everybody's jumping around and this his heart is burning with fervor and love for the Tyra and you know what he wants to do he wants to dance and jump and be and be happy the problem is can't he can't he can't move can't move arthritis and rheumatiz and other iises and all kinds of crank kite and Etc so what does he do he goes over to a guy and he tells the go go how could you just sit there onim you know what today is you're s sitting there like it' be just a regular day why are you not being why you not rejoicing why the GU says Tyra what's Tyra I don't know anything about Tyra so the yid says come here open up the jacket he gives him a 64 botle of Johnny Walker he gives a go he say you want some guy says no why not and he Downs the whole bottle now the go is the you says put me on your shoulders now oh now the old is dancing around like nobody's business he could have moved before but that's only because he didn't have the capacity but now he he was he gave some to the the Gentile now the Gentile is dancing around the Gen is not dancing because of he's dancing because he had what to drink but the Jew is dancing because he he's rejoicing with the T ah so what does it have to do with anything you really need a GU uh only so the answer is like this p is the time of every bad every wants to Rejoice with tremendous that today is the day of the problem is the is saying gof wake up Rejoice today is the go says huh what's Tyra I'm tired so the says hey goof take some of this and the the Nish feeds the Goof so now the Goof is happy and the nisham is able to so to speak harness and and direct and um focus hone the Goof in on the Sim that the is feeling so this is another in um one more tell us and a med it's brought in the that the says Esther wanted to know why are the Jewish people and the matter says well the Jewish people have become M and Rush poor and poor so what did Esther say k k and they say over from that we're is and our is M and both of these things only um if you take out kale or Kaye what are you left with if you take out K from is you get rash you take k out of M you get so they told Esther Esther big problem you're M and rush so you have nothing left so Esther said if that's case k Kay why' you come out of is Kay why' you come out of mik but the deeper meaning is like like this the truth is we have no Mal we have nothing in this world we're not like other nations of the world other nations of the world have their connection to a to a angel a ministering Angel that's how they have K CL Isel has no angels we only have one thing when we're close to Reish we're good when we're not close toam we have nothing in the times of P we lost our connection to hasem when is loses their K he becomes Rush becomes when M loses K becomes M he becomes poor that's the meaning has no without the es was able to us to do CH she restored the K to to M and that's why we're going to have a very joyous wishing everybody you've just experienced another Torah class brought
