Rabbi. >> Yes. >> What is a real sinroa in your eyes? [sighs] >> You know, in an ideal world cuz set up the Tyra and and Yahadus that it should be ideal. Okay. If it's not ideal, we figure out what to do. Um uh [clears throat] I think it was Ruperman from who said I think that he said hash will tell you what to do in any situation. Hashk tells you what situations to be in. So if you know there's what happens but as the kashwist newsletter says not recommended then you should behave in a way. So let's say you did it right. Yeah. So you went through all of Elo and you used Elo as that preparation that Hashem loves me. And then you had Rash where we were. We made him the king and he's in charge of the entire world. Right. At least us. At least us he's in charge of Yeah. And then we did a made to live our best life to become as as Hashem. He comes closer and closer and closer to us. And on Yin Kipper, we mamish walk into the kosher kadoshim. We're on the highest level. We're like we say dressed in way out loud. And then we have four days where the say there's so much energy that's pushing you forward. You don't even have a time to do a that's why it says on the first day that you're possible to do anything wrong because you couldn't do it during those four days. You were had so much energy from Kipper. Then we go into sukus where we're half in this world and half out where we have the roof over our head has been taken away and replaced with the which is being is being uh puts the suka over us and we stay there for a week and we enjoy being in Hashem's presence and then at the end we have to pick up the safetra that stood in the middle of the beimma and we danced around it with our dal minimum. We put down the dal minimum and we pick up the safetra and we dance around with it. So a real sustra you know my mother used to stay in a hotel for sukis and uh we come and join them sustra was not a sustra because should be the people you spent rashashana with and kip with and made with and with and built sukus with and then when you reach that end then you have that crescendo where we celebrate the It's I love the Torah. It's It's my entire life. The words of Torah are greater than gold and silver. We sing all these things to about how precious the Torah is. Everybody is supposed to get a hakafa and hold the safety Torah and embrace it and say, "Wow, I'm taking the safetra with me. I'm taking all of these times hosana is hosa n is 51 because if you go from el 30 days of el and then 21 days of t that's 51 that finishes it is 22. The 22nd day is where we get that celebration of taking everything we've done and bringing it back into our lives and into our regular walk.
