this store class is brought to you by torahanytime.com yeah turn 180 and and uh he was once in an airport and uh he somebody recognizes him and somebody runs over to him and he says Rabbi Rabbi is that you is that you and remember and his personality he's introspective he's not one to take in the uh attention and adoration so he sort of sheepishly uh says yeah nice to meet you nice to see you and the guy doesn't let off he says do you understand you've literally changed my life I've heard thousands of your tapes I've always read many of your books everyone I know reads your newspaper article in fact in my show alone at least a dozen people read your books during the rabbis Russia do you know how you've changed so many people's lives and Rabbi wine has heard enough he's not really interested in hearing this in the airport and he said you know thank you so much I really appreciate it and the guy doesn't let up he says uh you don't understand I've heard over 10 000 of your teeth I followed you all over the place and right wine said taste on the shawline have a safe flight he turns around and the guy is back at it he said I just wanted to uh you don't know rabbi it's you right that behind every great man is an even greater woman please do me a favor and send my best regards to rabbits and Friends I don't usually travel with her but the next time I see her I'll be sure to tell him moreover I say in life sometimes you could completely miss the build you know the story which song and he said you know let me explain to you what the world to come is like the world to come is like a cold Pepsi after a heisa children heard the shoes and one of some of them came back to Shalom a few days later he said rebe rebe you've changed my life forever so if someone said why are you you're convinced that how great is so no I don't even hear that part but I never tried Pepsi after I had children so in life sometimes you could miss the boat sometimes you can miss the point sometimes you hear the words and you miss the message and very often it doesn't really make a big difference the end of the world at the end of the day okay so you call Rabbi wine Rabbi soccer fan big deal but other times in life if you make a mistake and you miss the point and you miss the message it could have eternal ramifications so let's begin today's discussion what's a very important question this is a question that any thinking person should ask themselves about the order of the young man we know that the year begins with Rosh Hashanah and uh 10 days later of course we have yamaki for him and if you think about the way that Hashem arranged it seems in a way very out of order let me explain what I mean what happens judges us and what is it going some judge us based on our Mitzi samas and Tobin says it's rather simple someone who has right midsize is inscribed and sealed for a good year someone who has Roy baboy noise the fade is not good and then you have those in the middle and we like to think of ourselves this way the banana people who are 50 50. and their judgment is pending and then 10 days later we go to show and we fast and we try to do chuva and the revolution is think about it for a moment the order of the young Narayan is completely backward it's completely opposite what's the of judging us based on Mitzvah navarros and then afterwards we launched some coming along and forgiving our others let's imagine somebody they have 500 midways 550 others so if that's what they're if that's what their status is it can be good and then 10 days later the amount of gives us a Yom Kippur so we're macapara bye guys okay but it's too late it's 10 days too late we'll clean up all of our day right and then 10 days later we'll have the Rosh Hashanah and we'll have 500 minutes and all our videos why hasn't Rebellion arranged to system completely backwards that is the question of the primary disciple of rabiso salanta ravitzilla petterberg I had this close to be by Robertson a number of times I'm very attached to the summer of it so Patrick this is a question of rabbit's law so one question deserves another and in my humble opinion the next question that we're going to ask is the single most important question that any thinking person who is alive in this world can ever ask of themselves in their entire lifetime if anybody looks around at the world one thing that is clear in the world is that everything in this world has plan and purpose that's obvious we don't know who made it let's put that aside but clearly everything in this world has plan and purpose so for example you take a simple fruit you take an Appalachian before an apple is ripe it's green it's inconspicuous on the tree you can't see it on the tree it's not attractive it doesn't grab your attention and you almost don't notice it and then the apple ripens and all of a sudden it turns red and you notice it and you see it and you want to eat it it's it calls out at you now is that a coincidence is that an accident for sure certainly whoever created this apple had a plan and a purpose he understood that he doesn't want someone to eat an apple that's not ripe but when that apple is ripe whoever created it wants you to eat it anybody happen to have an apple on them I can't believe you guys I came to speak you don't have an apple unbelievable process I just noticed thank you everybody it's amazing how I got them this is what the apple looks like before it's ripe it's green you don't notice it you don't recognize it you don't want to eat it it's bland and then somehow miraculously as soon as the Apple ripens somebody paints it red amazing house love a fella same thing with the orange the orange before it's ripe you don't notice this land you don't recognize it all of a sudden it's ripe somebody Paints the orange somebody wants you to notice it somebody wants you to recognize it anybody have an orange on them you want to hear an amazing thing in this bag somebody painted this Orange only when it right now before it ripened it was green it was Bland it was unnoticeable it was unrecognizable and we could speak about the wonders of a kalashbaraku from today and we could speak for hours and hours and hours and never stop describing the plan and purpose of creation yes when I was above her I used to walk to Glenda with Victor Miller Show I grew up on Avenue and he's 31st I used to walk 45 minutes every single shot is so I I heard them say that I'll give you one simple thing people in America they like to eat meat I spoke this afternoon maybe two hours ago to a mesista in big China so and I just want to eat chicken they don't really know about what meat is but in America you know people like to eat steak how do you digest steak so the stomach has very powerful acids the acids are so powerful that if you would put it on the piano you would eat right through the piano that's how powerful a stomach acid is so you eat the steak and the body produces an acid that literally Burns through the steak that you're eating and somehow miraculously the acid doesn't burn through the body how's that possible and the answer is clearly whoever made the stomach has the wisdom and the foresight and the create an entity that could produce the strongest acids in the world and produce a protective coating for the stomach so that while it's digesting an animal's stomach it doesn't digest your own okay very simple and easy everything in nature has great plan and purpose there's only one item one entity in this world we are the wisdom of the Creator seems to have been slightly off kilter and it's not the plants and it's not the animals it's not the sun it's not the Moon the creation that seems to have gone Haywire is a human being as a person because you ever noticed that there's a phenomenon in people there's this uh mood with which people act and behave that people no matter how much they have people are never satisfied you can have the wealthiest person in the world within months within weeks they want more they need more somebody could go on vacation to somewhere in this country the next year they need to leave the country and the year after they have to go to somewhere more exotic somebody could have all the clothing in the world the next season they need more the people in the East they're traveling to the West people in the north they're traveling to the South no matter how much a person has they always want more there was never someone who said well uh I'm just happy in the house I had and I don't need anything else unless somebody really really works against their nature there's a phenomenon in The Human Condition the gemara Tells uses if you have a hundred you want 200 . nobody ever left this world having half of what they really want out of life and who made us that way three butter saliva did the Roboto make an animal that way absolutely not if you give a cow enough grass and a shady spot under a tree the cow will be happy indefinitely and even the most successful wealthiest people in this world slowly grow very restless and dissatisfied and discontent why did the reborn Islam create man in a way why did I have some pretty human being in awake that a human being is just never ever satisfied and happy why did Hashem make us this way was it a mistake did the Revenge some get it wrong constipation when he made a human being that this is the most fundamental question in all of yahadas why did we banish some create us in a way that we are not satisfied in this world birds are happy fish are happy everybody else is happy all the animals are happy and yet we banish them made a person in a way that he's not happy and satisfied in this world and the missiles to charm says the answer to this question is the most fundamental idea there's a very fundamental error we make almost every day of Our Lives as we wake up in the morning and we go outside and we see signs and advertisements and billboards and other people and attitudes and you know what everything in this world cries out at us and screams out at us and the message that we get is that this world is where it's at this our creation is only about oil Amazon and if a person thinks that creation is about this world then the creation of man was an overwhelming disaster of epic proportions then if Hashem created man was the biggest mistake ever created says don't miss the boat over here because if you miss this one this will be the biggest error because replenishment did not create US foreign whatsoever and this is Young gives us the famous uh analogy you heard the story The Princess you heard about the princess she got married to a schlepper it was on the front page of uh The Jewish Home you didn't see it last week the princess of England got married to a schlepper the guy's such a schleper he wears Rags he wears a shmata his mask for Corona is an old tissue he couldn't even buy a suit for the wedding and he married the princess and she used to live in the palace and she agreed to go move into a Hut in the forest what's wrong with this lady she agreed to do it and he brings her back to the hut and he's trying to make this princess happy you see she's hungry so she he gets out his old rusty parks and he get takes an old uh rotted onion and uh moldy potato and some old beans and he starts stirring it up and she smells the most wretched smell she ever smelled in her life and he says isn't it delicious isn't it scrumptious if she says yeah it's really great and she tries to eat it and she she spits it out and he says what's wrong dear what what are you lacking what are you missing this is the best onion I had this is the best potatoes I had it's got my best beans oh you want music so he takes some pot out of his cupboard and he starts banging with a metal spoon on the hot Bang Bang there's nothing he could do to make her happy and the reason is the matter says because she comes from a different world she comes from the palace she's used to the cuisine of the palace she's used to the Fine Symphonies of the palace there is no food or music or pleasure the sky could give her that will mean anything created every person with their most valuable commodity the most valuable thing that we have is our nashama but we've got a problem you know what the problem is the nashama is overqualified for this world so the nashama comes down to this world and the body like a schlepper tries to make the nashama happy okay nishama what can I get you would you like food and then the shama is uh no thanks that doesn't do anything for me and the body says would you like pleasure would you like new shoes a new pocketbook a new house what would you like you want a vacation and then there's summer says are you kidding me I'm used to the Palace I'm used to shamayam I'm used to the pleasures of the shamayan which are only Tyra Mitzvah is [Music] that's the only thing that gives in the shama any happiness and satisfaction in this world so the mashaba comes down to this world and the nashama is very lonely and very disconsolate and very empty and basically the unhappiness of the nashama is really the roots of all the ills of society all of the despondency and all the anxiety and all of the fears and all of the addictions it's all rooted in the fact that Hashem created person that they're not really satisfied with this world so then what some got it wrong why did Hashem make us so overqualified we're basically in a place where nothing does anything for us to show him this is the single greatest act of kindness that the ivanisha did for man because if rebanisha made us like a cow then you know what we would do we would eat breakfast every day and then we would eat lunch and then we would eat dinner and we would go shopping in between and we would do that for 20 30 40 50 60 years and then we would call it a day and we would accomplish absolutely nothing with our lives celebration did us a great favor and he put us in a place where nothing in this place does anything for us except for the things that we need to get to a different place so if Hashem created a person we are an abysmal failure and if Hashem created a person foreign to recognize what our function is in this world you ever hear of the city of swats splits close to a famous city in Europe and the road in the city of splitsk was none other than the rizvaz the advise wrote a famous commentary on to you xiaomi you're adviserable David wallowsky and in the city of Switzerland there was a doctor and this doctor was an epicurist and one day he would take a stroll every day toward the end of the day and one fine day he's patching passing by The Butcher Shop and he hears that the butcher is telling all his customers get out get out leave I gotta run I gotta run I have to in 15 minutes everyone else and the doctor says this guy's out of his mind this is Thursday night this is his most important day of the week this is when all the customers are here why would he be kicking everybody out late in the day and he's crisis come back in an hour for seven minutes back in an hour and he's literally kicking the customers out of the storm now this doctor he didn't believe in anything so he was very bothered by this he comes running to the butch he says you out of your mind you barely have any money how could you kick customers out of your store so the butcher said look I gotta go to Minka I gotta learn a Bissell I gotta go to Maris and then he said something that really hit the doctor he said and besides I gotta worry about my oil so the doctor says yeah it's no such thing as well the butcher said that's right for you there's no such thing as I remember but I'm hoping to get there and having some so the doctor was so upset he says to the butcher you know what you believe in oil here's one Ruble excuse me you give me one ruble I will sell you all of my other mama so the purchase this is real here's a Ruble I'll take you on my ball and the butcher runs to mental math years past ten years passed 25 years pass the butcher's now an old man and into his butcher shop walks an older lady A well-dressed woman she introduces herself and she says how are you I am the almana of the doctor which doctor remember the doctor he used to argue with you sure I have a question for you the last couple of nights I've been having a recurring dream and my husband's been coming to me in a dream and he claims that he sold and they were adjudicating his final decision and they brought in hundreds and hundreds of others and the doctor was waiting for all of his mentalists to be brought in after all he wasn't a big mom and he didn't keep so many missiles but he used to treat poor people for free and he was waiting for all the missiles to be brought into the courtroom and he said we are my midst of what about all the people I treated and they said uh yeah those were good deeds but pal you shot yourself in the foot you stole your Island above to the butcher so sorry pal we hope you have some ice cubes with you because you're headed to a very hot place even hotter than this room and yeah it's funny okay so so she said is there any truth to this dream is there any truth to this story I mean honestly I would not pay attention at my grandmother Allah hashan was just her yard side she was the daughter of the last rub of sakuchon and she would say over you know in Europe one of the main roles of the Rabon and people would come to the rub on him and tell them their dreams and the road would have to interpret the dream it's actually you know I used to be around in uh Queens so we had a lot of inspired them so I was doing much more uh dream interpretation than in the five towns I don't not sure why but many events but I don't do that anymore I'm not I'm well I don't do a dream interpretation anyway so she said is there any truth to the fact that he's my my husband sold to you all of us but she said yeah I've never very clearly like yesterday I remember you came to me he offered me a Ruble and I offered him a Ruble and I bought she said that he's screaming to me every night I literally cannot sleep he needs his oil back otherwise he's gonna end up in a bad place so the butcher said absolutely not I tell you the truth I have so few missiles in my replica I have so such Few Good Deeds I'm worried I'm not gonna have any oil on Hava but now that you're telling me that your husband said that an oil they were about to wheel in all of his misfies but he couldn't reap the benefits because he sold them there's not a chance in the world that I'm gonna give up all of those midsize the lady it's been nice knowing you but no way am I giving back so that night the woman goes to sleep and she has another dream and her husband is screaming her husband is crying please please I need an epic a mix of two minutes or three minutes with whatever you can get I need you to buy the item how about back the lady comes to the guy the guy says absolutely not I'm not even giving you a tenths of a Mitzvah how once I bought it how can I trade it in because lady said I'm going to best then he said what you're going to test them or you can't go take what's the case what do you mean what's the case you bought his oil we want the Mr Zach we're taking the case to Bez then so she knocks on the Rob's door and she tells her advise the whole story and there's vows amazingly says it's Taco a big case I want you to put up signs throughout the city that today there's going to be a din Tyra and the two parties are the butcher and the almana the people cannot believe this is the most exciting thing that has ever happened in the city of slots the entire city packs into the shore they're waiting for the revised to convene to adjudicate this case the advice comes in and their advice here is the side of the butcher so we're advised here I'm okay I'm just joking thank you and the advice here is it's out of the the next time I come prepare them that night the results here is the side of the butcher here's the side of the Amana and he says this is the toughest Shiloh that I've ever heard in my life it's gonna take me 45 minutes to deliberate about this one so their advised thinks and he thinks and he's in his room and he's harveying and he's opening up sparring and he's contemplating and 45 minutes later the revised comes out of the his Chambers and their advances this case has three parts to it part number one says revise the sale is bottom the butcher was never able to sell his oil to the the doctor was never able to sell his uh so everybody breathes a great sigh of relief Hashem the doctor is going to get his oil and the revised explains not an entity it's not a tangible item you can't transfer from one person to another is the life that you achieve by the performance of mixed voice it's not transferable you cannot give oil in my butt from one person to another your advice says you know what it's like it's like you have a Forester you hire a Forester to chop wood for you in the forest and the Foresters chopping he's chopping and chopping you owe him 500. and at the end of the month the Forester says listen instead of paying me the 500 bucks give it to somebody else give it to plane that's all the Forester could do that he could transfer money as a transferable item instead of you giving it to the Forester you could give it to somebody else but besides the money the Forester earned think about it the Forester has been chopping wood for 30 days he's exercising he's breathing in the Mountaineer he's out in the sun all of the health benefits that the Forester got he can't transfer the sunshine he got to somebody else he can't transfer the exercise he got for somebody else you can transfer oil on my boat to somebody else it's part of your nashama part of your soul it's part of your mercy as you can't transfer it so everybody breathes a sigh of relief the Amana is ecstatic everyone feels good for this doctor says your advice sack number two the doctor has no hair like in oil everybody guys why it says the gemara tells us that even though there's nothing that anybody could do to take away a mitzvah but if somebody regrets doing the Mitzvah if somebody is if somebody disparages amidst love someone disparages Torah they cannot cash in they cannot reap the benefits of it says the revised if this doctor was mafaza in his Mis Voice by selling it for a Ruble he's not machipara he's and they take they took it away from him the doctor has no share in the world to come and the amanas crying and everybody is very emotional everybody feels terrible for this doctor but the revised says this sock has one third part says they're advised there's one last clause and that is before this court case everybody believed but everybody believed in it like a concept yeah you pay lip service one day there's oil but nobody really lives nobody considered it a reality that they're worried about that they think about that they're trying to get that they're focused on that they're living toward it it was just an idea it was just the concept but now that there's a court case and people are fighting over and people recognize that something real it's the whole purpose of this world is just a short hallway until we get there and people are taking all of us seriously and people are actually believing in it like a reality this has been the kid there's Hashem that the world has been waiting for and who created the kids Hashem the doctor and in that Merit the doctor has a great failure that's the story of the river when we come to Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur you need to have one little reality check you know why we have a question that Rosh Hashanah should come after Yom Kippur that first Revenge comes to forget our videos and then he should judge us it's because all we are trained to think about is this world am I gonna be healthy this year am I gonna have money this year am I gonna have clothing this year am I gonna have friends this year we're always focused we're only thinking about this world and to us it's all about Rosh Hashanah Rosh Hashanah Rosh Hashanah what's three brothers I'm going to grant me on Rosh Hashanah and I wish young Kippur would come first so that I wouldn't have any others so the devotional will give me good health and happiness and livelihood and so on and so forth because we're focused on Islam haza but since we'll be so cilant there are one little mistake is almost negligible in comparison it's all about and therefore it's all about Yom Kippur and therefore Yom Kippur is the most important day of the year because Yom Kippur is going to decide what we will be like in oil well we have midsize the most important day of the year is Yom Kippur and the Republic knew that it's the first day of Yom Kippur first day of the year was Yom Kippur we would come to show and we would turn Matt what am I doing here today how come I'm not eating what do you mean uh we're here we're here to do chuva well why am I doing Shiva because I'm trying to get on we're trying to get over our berries why do we want to get up for our virus because we want to have a good hit like an island huh who's that where is that what block is it on how do I find it who sings if Yom Kippur would be the first day of the year it would be completely meaningless to us who thinks about oil so they banish them gives us an exercise sometimes it's called Rosh Hashanah vasham says come to school and recognize me and do chuva and start thinking about yourself start thinking about bettering yourself think about improving yourself so you say ma what am I doing here what do you mean you want good health right you want money right you want clothing you want friends you want all the needs of this world yeah yeah yeah those are that talks to me I know what else is I know what friends are I know what my needs in this world are so where shashana is a warm-up to the great day and once we've been trained once we begin to think about ourselves that our Muslim that our midsize that our virus for our needs that is now we could start warming up to think about the most important day of the year and that is young children let me just conclude with one big story there were a bunch of bahren in Nashville and the Nazis were hovering over them and they heard gunshots in the background the Russians were coming the Russians were coming it was 1945 the war was about to be over and the Nazis pulled these buffering listen up your hour will never come we will eradicate you before the Russians get here and the next thing they know the Russians are running into the cab and the Nazis Flee for their life and these both of them are talking and they're saying you know what was the hardest part of the War what was the hardest part of the camp was it the starvation was it the thirst and they all agreed the hardest part of the camp it was the bitter cold it was a cold that they felt in their bones they could never get rid of that bitter cold they felt it with every fiber of their being in one particular buffer now that they were free ran to the storage room and he whipped out of the storage room a very warm fur coat of a Nazi officer it's on the fur coat and then he put on the fur cap of the Nazi officer and he for the first time in six years he felt so warm he was so comfortable he was he felt like he was in the next world and the next thing he knows his tap on his back the Russian officer said you're a Nazi grabs him and he puts him on the cattle car with the other Nazis who are headed off to be killed if you imagine what the sand was feeling the sucker was feeling seconds ago freedom and now he's being pulled off his totally out of place and he's screaming Israel and all the Nazis were saying they were all trying to say they were Jewish not nothing Doom and the train is moving and finally the train stops and they're about to take them out and kill them and there was a Russian officer marching back and forth and he didn't know what to do so this year the Shabbat sticks his head out of the gate and he screams out smile you throw a shadow and the Russian officer who was a kid he listens and he marches off two hours later he comes back he says you're a Jew you're a Jew what's with the costume I was freezing cold he said did you go to hey there how about I went to dinner what's the first mission I brought us so get out of here any freedom you imagine that buffer on the car how lonely he felt how out of place he felt he's in an existence he's in a he's in a car with Nazis he is so lonely is so disconsolated so empty you know what the nashama feels like in this world and the shama is so lonely in this world and the shama is so empty in this world and the whole year the body tries to tell them the summer don't worry try this go here do that and then ashama is screaming I don't want I love I want is the banana sauce but there's one day a year foreign there's one day a year where the nashama has a little peace of mind a little contentment and through that one great day a year Hashem saves us he finally puts us in touch with the day which with which we use as our compass as our point of Direction now we know what we want in this world now we know we know what we're after now we know what to focus on foreign you've just experienced another Torah class brought to you by
