it's time for rabbi Minko it's weekly
Torah lesson a place where life's most
difficult questions are answered here
with his spiritual perspective and
insight
rabbi Mingo it welcome to this week's
Torah lesson this week's Torah portion
is practice for a the question of the
week is how can we kosher our animal
soul so this week's Torah portion
process where we learn about the laws
about kosher animals and the Torah tells
us that in order for an animal to be
kosher - it needs to two qualifications
one is it has that split hooked and D it
has to chew it's cut and that is the
laws for a kosher animal but the Rebbe
explains what does that mean practically
in our lives and everything stranger
scholars what is the idea spiritually
why it has to have a split house because
split it means it's split you means you
have a right and you ever left in other
words many people have this tendency
that right oriented or the left oriented
more acid more Gora
more positive more critical excetera
comes along the Torah and tourists alike
this when it comes to your animal if
you're one way sided whether it's right
or left positive or negative that's not
a kosher animal a kosher animal is one
that is right
endless that means that you naturally do
something a certain way you have to work
on doing things that you're not
comfortable doing and those if you only
do the things that you're comfortable
doing then it's not a kosher animal a
kosher animals one that has to do things
they're not comfortable doing this way
you're serving on from your right which
you're comfortable doing but you're also
serving God's in your left then you're
not comfortable doing it so that acai
number one and sign number two is you
have to chew the cud which means you
have to keep on repeating it sometimes
we do things okay I'm done I did it and
I feel the obligation but the torez I
don't know you want to elevate you
animals all you have to not only do it
you have to keep on doing it so the
answer the question how can you elevate
animal soul to make sure that you do
things to the right and to the left
means any things that you're comfortable
doing and things that you're
uncomfortable doing and to keep on
repeating the process
until it becomes second nature this
week's Torah lesson is a memory of bora
pandari leave and Ben Yosef may
their souls the elevator to the Torah
that we're studying in their memory
