[Music] amazing questions about God from Hollywood number nine we've been here for a couple of months already and I think these sh are a phenomenal way to start off the week so also this year will be with to um s anat Rait Leana Leana Sarah Doris David Ben Elish Arena but an knows I tried to pronounce it right will give us it's uh one of the things that I always think about but I don't think I talk enough about is how valuable the is and I'll start you know I'll give you guys a few small things and you know five minutes and then you guys can start asking some questions I have some material if you guys don't have questions but it's something that uh is truly amazing it's truly amazing how hasem manages to do things that M fulfill the verse my thoughts are not like your thoughts every day every day if you look for it you'll find it you see how his thoughts are as distant from from your thoughts as you can imagine beyond that imagination because we figure out we're going to help AEM I'm going to give him ideas of how to give me money I'm gonna give him ideas of how to give me this how to give me that how to give me this how to give me that hasem does it 500 million times better than you so I give you a few things about you know some time ago we did a uh posters about and I value thear posters and thear blessing very dearly anyone that's ever been sick seriously sick in their life should value it very dearly and uh we've been giving them out I mean we printed out tens of thousands and we've intended to try to help people also do the while also raising money for the organization we've given out 99.9% of it for free but the good news is is that nothing goes unnoticed with AEM you're not selling it for money but you're earning so I give you three stories just three stories of three people that doing CH because of the posters so you you know you thinking CDs you if CDs lectures each CD 30 40 hours of lectures they're going to listen to it do Chu or you think in the lectures themselves two three hour lecture people do Chua Clips five minutes 10 minutes get somebody going do Chua you're never going to think somebody's going do cha because the post so one guy tells me listen I saw your CD in different places but I never really picked it up you know the CDs we have soldiers everywhere putting the CDs out in different restaurants kosher restaurants and different shoes and so on I saw your CD in a few placees I just never picked it up and uh but then one day I saw the poster that sh post I said you know what it's a really nice thing it's a really nice blessing I never knew you had to do a blessing before uh after you go to the bathroom what's I looked at the blessing I looked at the body I started thinking about how magical the body is how everything works automatically I said you know what this amazing I see your name on it I see I'm like wa I remember this name I see CD next to it I pick up CD another person another person um when we did uh there was a uh Drive you go to.org our website we have different things once in a while we have our lectures there but we also have a u the movies we come out with once in a while we came out with one last night fr's new movie about very very uh top quality uh good stuff to know about also but uh we also have different things that we have from time to time either articles that I write or different uh campaigns that we have and some time ago there was a family that had a very big disaster with the kids uh you know kids were in the hospital there was a big car accident and so on it touch my heart to hear how you know pretty much most of the families in the hospital two are in critical three are in critical condition what can we do what can we do I said you know what get people to thank for will give these people so we decided to uh give out 4,000 of these posters and uh 8,000 CDs so 4,000 double CDs and 4,000 these post just the people whoever wants to give them out for free don't worry about money just give them for you want to donate donate you don't want to donate don't donate just get people so one of the people that was touched by it was a woman that uh I don't really know what she keeps doesn't look like she was keeping much but she saw the post online and she was touched by it and she said listen I want to donate I want to donate a few hundred for this uh thing it's really uh nice what you're doing and so on and so forth why not so she donated I think I also sent us some posts some CDs and so on anyway months have passed months have passed you can go through it if you come in come in or you could sit here months have past and uh I haven't heard I don't remember everybody but not I haven't heard but this woman sends me a message after the Sho we did last week about the extraordinary woman of The Exodus which is even additions to that just haven't written it up yet um and she says ever since that time I started watching your it's inspiring it's amazing it's changing my life can I start asking questions can you be my Rabbi can you this can you that you never believe it it's it's unbelievable how hasem made you reach this person would have never clicked on any of my sh she wasn't in that world she was in her own world like all of us at some point in our life but something some that we did she happened to see it she wanted to be part of it that apparently was the last thing that hem said okay now we're going to open up we're going to open up the gates of heaven so now you see people are changing their life and doing but this uh when you really think about it it's one of those prayers that we take for granted because you have to do it a bunch of times a day and uh if you're healthy you have to do it a few times a day and it's very easy to memorize it short so it's very easy to do it when you're walking away instead of stand there thinking that your body works stand there think hasm that everything is where it's supposed to be stand there think AEM that you could actually even move we go we walk we go back to our business we can't wait to finish sometimes we don't even do the blessing I can tell you that there are women and men that I know now that wish they had your health wish they had our health because you don't value something until you don't have it but you shouldn't wait till not have it you shouldn't wait till you not have it because sometimes you think ah waking up everybody wakes up eats Everybody Eats goes to the bathroom everybody goes to the bathroom something doesn't work quite right your whole day shot your whole week is shot maybe your whole life is shot so this is just a little bit of for you guys to understand that it's something that you really should put some into it's not a long blessing that 30 40 50 seconds a minute two minutes it takes to actually look at the words that's why we made the posters that's so you have something nice on your wall it's not a picture it's that you actually look at the words and to give you an understanding of what it means to look at the words they uh ask the why you open the S why you open the do when you do every six-year-old boy knows B by heart every little kid knows B by heart in this day six-year old boys apparently knew the by heart today 30y olds don't know it but back then they knew they you reading he says if I don't look at the words I don't have kavana if I don't look at the words it's like I didn't pray it's like I didn't pray I I stole from and that's imagine on we have less than an excuse 30 seconds so please if you don't have it you can get it on the website or you don't I'll send it to you for free or you could just get it here have some in the car also if you somebody remind me I don't I can't stay long tonight because I have a flight in a few hours to uh New York but um uh so after the lecture I'm not going to have that much time for questions above the questions you going ask but remind me there is some uh booklets and if not if you can't get it today I'll give it to you next time I see you there some booklets of Shabbat little small booklets of Shabbat that each one of you should go over even though it's ashkanazi versus Safari there's a few changes if you sign up to the website uh which I forget what it is uh you'll also get a safic as well but either way a lot of it is very similar there's very few that are not similar that are different but nonetheless you need to start learning Al if you have if you're not learning already if you have your it's obviously better if you're Safar if you're asazi then this is obviously perfect for you either way you have to get this to add it to your day-to-day uh learning uh because anyone that doesn't learn alabat for sure guaranteed guaranted is guarant if you don't learn you guaranteed Shabbat with all the Shabbat you think you keeping with the and the and this for sure so if you don't learn for sure why because you don't know what you don't know you don't know what you don't know I had a guy one time told me I tell him listen you have to learn no I know I learn from your lectures I said my lectures is not enough it doesn't go over all you have to learn a lot more than just my my lectur get you get you wired get you on fire to do what but the basics day-to-day stuff you need to learn above the lectures you need to learn from books no I know I know I know I'm like you're probably Shabbat I tell him if you don't learn no I keep Shabbat no I keep Shabbat already three years I said yeah I said how you wash dishes how you wash dishes on Shabbat he go what do you mean how you wash dishes you wash dishes same thing you wash how you wash dishes yeah I wash dishes y up your wife how you wash dishes he said I wash dishes same way you washing the rest of the week with the sponge and the soap and everything oh because what do you mean I said the sponge is sucking the water you're squeezing it's you have to the sponge that you use for for for Shabbat cannot be a sponge it has to be a net or brush something simple yet shock of his life shock of his life I got to start learning so to give you a understanding this is a uh you need to learn you need to learn so if uh you wait until the end I'll give you the booklets I have them in my car so if I can have a little bit of Merit to actually helping you keep Shabbat that would be fantastic otherwise if you can buy some books to learn how old Shabbat that's even better the little booklet that I have is decent to get you by but there's obviously many many more laws uh beyond that so uh with that being said I mean there's much material that I can go over but I'm sure you guys have some questions that are burning you that you want to ask so go ahead who wants to start go ahead have so we know when we wash our hands and we eat bread okay and after that we eat an apple but it's not considered a meal why do we have to say because says that anyone who enjoys anything in the world without think AEM is considered like he stole from hem so now there are many joys in the world there's a there's a book that I recommend to a lot of people I think it's called Don't Hold Me on the name but I recommend it very often I have it on my phone I sent it to I show it to you you should get it every house should have it on their coffee table on their on Shabbat why because it's not a regular blessings first of all it teaches you all the of the blessings as far as the basics of what you need the backgrounds the different P what they say but even more than that it teaches you not just the blessings for food for blessings of anything blessings when you see uh the uh you know uh um uh hurricanes blessings when you see your friend that you haven't seen in a long time blessings of when you see a smart uh y smart you know when you see a very smart Yi very smart Jew blessing blessing if you see a king blessing if you see a smart blessing if you see something nice blessing if you see something beautiful in nature and so on and so forth but on top of that it has pictures of all the different types of food that most houses have where they be cereal and gives you the brands what do you do a blessing on Cheerios what you do blessing on corn flakes it's different blessings what's a blessing on corn flakes no no see you guys are stealing from hasem you have to buy this book but it's in a different form though nonetheless it's still consider in that particular it's not specific case and that specific case is unique it's considered by most other cases you're 100% right that's what you have to have have to see the pictures you see the picture you see the everyone says anyone says gets out of everything but unfortunately creates himself a big problem can't just say sh for everything can't say on on the app can't do sh on everything why I'll give you a story Shalom said one time a woman came to him and she said I had a strange dream had a strange dream this guy came to me in a dream I don't know this guy he says thank you but you could have done a better job I said what did I do says you know you bought a um a uh cucumber in the store today you bought a cucumber and you ate it before you ate it you did you did blessing sh thank you for blessing because I my was inside the Cucumber that was my all the things that I did I G as a cucumber imagine a cucumber is waiting you to eat him but only eat him with a blessing you don't eat him with a blessing has do it again another cucumber can become a whole farm at the end with no blessings so now he's in a cucumber M he's in a cucumber he's waiting for somebody to do a blessing she does a blessing but she does sh he says it was good you helped me get out of the Cucumber but I only got up one level if you would have done the correct blessing which is I would have actually gone back to being a human again so she said for can this be true he said it's 100% true it's 100% true so the the cucumbers are waiting for you guys the cucumbers are waiting for you guys so now back to the amazing question now anytime someone sees and enjoys something in the world whether it's food or it's going to the bathroom or it's anything it's in essence it's it's it's kindness from hasem it's kindness from Hashem for you to be able to enjoy the world it's kindness from hasem for you to be able to enjoy colors imagine everything was gray imagine everything tasted the same we'd be like the snake everything tastes the same to him imagine everyone look the same no black no white no green no yellow no this no Chinese no this everyone looked exactly the same like robots imagine to bring kids to the world would be no joy there' be no kids one person will having a care say some kind of problems you have I'm never doing it I have any kids with this problems that's why in the days of the he pray to hem take away this T take away this uh this uh desire toot accepted their prayer but then they started noticing wait a minute the chickens are not laying any eggs the chickens are not laying any eggs there's no babies coming out why no one has desire no one has desire the world's going to be destroyed one generation so the fact that hasm made everything Joy joyful is it's kindness Fromm so for that we have to thank him the significant is it's the second blessing is the blessing after you enjoy but added a blessing even before because that's the way you're really supposed to do things say thank you before say thank you after is the is the you do the it's after you finish after you finish eating you have to do but in real reality you should also say thank you before so says if you don't say thank you it's like you came to somebody's house you took their stuff without telling them when you left you're Thief it's not nice to steal from people but he said listen can I can I borrow some water can I borrow some water you see if I didn't say if I just started drinking the water who knows it would have looked at me like with face all night say he was drinking my water he didn't say thank you he didn't say nothing you see played along he even thought it was asking for something so see so just imagine that every single time before you eat before you drink before you do anything just imagine a Sim is right next to you and he's looking at you he says you're going to drink that water yeah did you forget something oh thank you yeah thank you hasm okay Hashem say sees you say thank you I'm going to give him one next time also so the more you thank hasem the more he wants to give you the more you forget to thank him the less he wants to give you next question of us already know we have bless we have to bless some beautiful things um now among the beautiful things have if someone come come come it's okay it's okay someone if someone says to himself he's going to look at a beautiful woman and bless on her oh what a good question you had million dollars that question million dollars million dollars that question at least someone says you look at somebody beautiful you have to bless but then someone's going to use what a question so someone says okay if you have to bless every time you see something beautiful you see a beautiful person you have to bless so everyone's going to start using this as an excuse say oh I'm going to look at every woman that walks and say look blessing a I'm doing I'm doing mitvah I'm looking at all the women you know what I'm actually going to get a special channel on television to look at okay so this is a very good question and you actually you intended on asking the same question the asked about aim asked now there are certain tools there are certain tools that by default they're T by default you're not allowed to use them for example if let's say for example you have a uh a wooden stick nothing's wrong with it if you have a wooden plate you don't have to take it to the mik but if the wooden stick is hollow it's Hollow and has a compartment you could open it not let to use it why it's why is he says says in the M this is one of the tools of the thieves of the thie thieves what's another tool of the thieves he said if you have weights weights scale back then you know in the old days it wasn't uh digital like today in the old days you still go to some place in the world it was very manual it says that if you have a scale that's really you know lopsided it's not a honest scale it's not an honest scale it's Tam not allowed to use it you stealing from people and the mishna actually talks about exactly how they make these tools the stick that has hollow how do they use how do the thieves use this stick in a couple of ways one way is if let's say for example in the old days the way they used to do it is they didn't have amazon.com they didn't have Walmart they didn't have supermarkets like today they also didn't have Alibaba where you buy all the wigs they didn't have that what they have somebody wanted to had Goods somebody had Goods so his Amazon of that day is he would have his Goods in the market and different people that wanted to make a living come to him like listen give me his $500 I'll buy the goods from you and he goes resells it but in many case no one had the $500 the guy's trying to make a living He says listen give me $500 worth of goods I'll go sell tell me what price you want I'll go sell for whatever have whatever the difference is you get your share I get my share so the guy would give him a bunch of goods give him $500 worth of goods no payment and it says listen I'm giving you the goods they're not counting listen I gave you three uh whistles five apples no I didn't count them it's based on usually based on the size of the basket size of the basket give or take at the end of the day the guy comes back to him he puts it on the uh on stick and and he puts the baskets on two sides of the stick the guy goes the whole day he sells the goods and he comes back with empty baskets there's no pockets there's no uh no pocket comes like look it's empty in here is the money that I got here your oh you're missing uh I gave you $500 worth the good you give me 400 check my pockets I don't have anything else check I don't have there no there's no ATM Machin no banks no this so you got to take the guy's word so what did he do he hid the extra 100 bucks inside the stick he hid the extra $100 inside the stick that little hollow point says T not allowed to use it another way is the homeless people people that Beggars they would hide all their money inside their KES so if the can was Hollow it was Tam it's impure why cuz they're begging for change begging for change but they have a bunch of money they have $5,000 inside their cake why you begging for change go get a job go give us a job so much money you have in your cane why they're hiding it so point is that the mishna says that these things these tools are T these tools are T leveling rods scale uh yoke poor person's can few different things so on this says was if I say it what to us if I don't say it say listen just closing this how to make these tools you're disclosing how the thieves are stealing how can you do it the thieves are going to read the Mish they're going to learn how to steal like I wrote an article by the way years years ago after this rash that made a big and heard a lot of people burning ma off stole billions and billions of dollars M like a day after he got caught I read the article that he got caught and within five seconds I knew how he stole all the money and I wrote an article that exactly how he stole the money I don't know exact I didn't do the investigation obviously but you're in a business you know whatever I happen to know how what he did and how he did it and uh I explained to not maybe five-page article exactly what Loop holy took advantage of of how he stole $60 billion from all these poor people and rich people and uh this loophole is still very much there based on my you know my my understanding not only is it still open this loophole to this day 10 years after the scam happened and people are still using it to this day but if I had to estimate on the industry a large a good percentage of the financial services industry I still stealing money right now a big good A lot of people that think they have a lot of money their money is gone it's gone there's little made offs everywhere and there was many made offs that were discovered after him and they're still being discovered every day but nonetheless you could say listen you wrote an article people could follow it and they going to learn how to steal money same thing meaning I directed what we're saying in this m is saying wo to us if we say it woe to us if we don't say it wo to us if we say it and the thieves learn from this and they start stealing because of it what was if we don't say it and the thieves thinks that are foolish and the thieves think that people that learn to don't know anything and they're they're fooling us like as if we don't know so what did we decide we decide to listen to what it says in the PUK Ina Chapter 14 verse 10 where the conclusion of the PUK is who is wise and we understand these things understanding and will know them who is understanding and will know them for the ways of hasem are straight the righteous will walk in them and the Sinners will stumble over them in so many words the prophet is saying we don't care what the thieves are going to do we don't care what the rashim are going to do we care what the truth is the way of hem is straight we spread the truth if are going to use the truth to make sense good is a big a g know for them so of course everyone knows that a righteous Jew must watch his eyes must watch his eyes even a woman must watch her eyes she can't start looking everywhere there's no right for a woman to look at other guys it's obviously not the same as it is for a man because different things happen to a man's mind and happen in a woman's mind but nonetheless don't stare at anything don't even stare at your neighbor's grass don't stare your neighbor's car don't stare at anything only thing you could stare at is the book learn tah stare at sik that's what you stare at don't stare at strangers don't be why creates jealousy it creates desires creates all the bad things in the world it creates from there so of course every Jew has to protect their eyes but why don't you tell people listen if you see something beautiful you should be a blessing even if you see a beautiful person and R is GNA say okay I'm going to start looking at every girl that walks and do blessings we don't care about such a person why he's looking for excuses to make more sins and hasem is looking for more volunteers to go to gum forever so which show it's a good match it's a good match next question anyone okay yeah regarding uh the blessing of the food um some cultures people have like foods that you know includes many different categories of food like from you know D and food from you know all these things yeah allowing you learn from is that it's whatever the is whatever the most significant is so for example if you have a um if you have a meal where the vast majority of the Mast majority of the plate is m vast majority of his M then you can go and just do and it covers everything what a righteous people do what do people that are considered Pious considered do and have what do they do if there's let's say a few different types let's say for example you have rice with a little Pebbles of corn and a little bit of meat in there can you get by with just doing me yes you can technically you can what you should do what we try to do each one do the rice first then you do the on the corn and then you and obviously rice eat the rice by itself corn blessing eat the corn that's ad then a little piece of meat that's sh finished but even better even better with the meat instead of doing a specific blessing on the meat because there may be some meat that's already in the in the rice it's better that you do a Shak on some drink something that you're drinking something that you're drinking it's better to do blessing on each one of the things in general uh number one that gives you more blessings uh which you need to do 100 blessings a day according to um but aside from that aside from that it's it's being more Pious it's being more careful with everything that you're you're enjoying in the world in general if you're going to have a meal unless you absolutely can't for whatever reason or another you should try to eat bread because that covers everything you do bread then you eat bread it covers everything you don't have to do individual blessings you do and you cover everything so that answers question number one question number two is again I don't know where you're eating or what you're eating so I'm just going to assume you don't know and if you know good good for you somebody on the camera doesn't know so don't take it offensive you cannot eat you cannot eat anywhere again you cannot just decide to eat anywhere you can't just decide oh no he's my friend I'm GNA eat at his house oh no it's my mom I'm to eat at a house you can't just decide to eat anywhere why the food may not be kosher so yeah you doing a blessing you're doing a blessing but doing a blessing on a pork sandwich is not a blessing you get extra extra punishment for it you understand so you can't just decide to eat at people's houses or different places just because you have to come come we're waiting for you we left two chairs for you just in case you got fatter since last time give it two chair so you can't just decide to eat anywhere first and foremost you should know if the person is not Jewish under no condition can you eat at their house if the restaurant is not a kosher restaurant under no condition can you eat there even if it's your food you can't bring your food to a non- kosher restaurant you cannot again you cannot bring your kosher food to a non- kosher restaurant it's not because the food's not Kosher it's because the place is not Kosher and if someone that doesn't know better sees you religious Jew woman or man looks religious you're not one of these Pretenders you have a keepa you have K they know you're Jewish they see you in the kosher in a non- kosher restaurant you're the kosher sign you've officially become the kosher sign so even if you're just eating salad even if you're not eating it doesn't make a difference you're still making possibly a why somebody sees you oh look it's a kosher place I'm GNA eat here I'm gonna come here later with my wife I'm gonna eat here or even worse they say look fake Jew I'm not doing Chua now because there's more fake Jews in the world that's the biggest the biggest excuse for a non-religious Jew is fake Jews how do I know I was one of them I was one of those people that use it as an excuse for 10 years I'm not doing chat cuz everybody's a fake Jew so you cannot eat at a non koser Place cannot eat at a nonosa person's house you could also cannot eat a a Shabbat house if someone's a Shabbat someone does not keep Shabbat you're not allowed to eat their food not allowed why if they don't care about their own soul why would they care about yours how so in Israel they have a very very important stringency is that the raban does not give a kosher stamp on the restaurant if the owner does not keep Shabbat so the food itself the meat might as well be kosher I mean it's very easy to get kosher food in Israel you can just imagine there's a lot of Jews there but if the owner does not keep Shabbat restaurant's not Kosher even if the food's kosher it's not Kosher does not get the kosher stamp why he doesn't care enough about his own to keep Shabbat why would he care enough about your n and make sure that every everything he's buying is really kosher why would he care enough about his about you to make sure that he cooks it in a kosher way he doesn't add milk to it by accident doesn't add trfe on it if it's if he sees something wrong if there's blood in the uh in the in the meat if there's blood in the eggs if there's bugs in the vegetables that's why this imbecile that wrote a article and Confused a lot of people he calls himself the Orthodox Rabbi he's as close to Orthodox as JC Penny was this guy wrote an article that you could eat practically at every vegan restaurant kosher or non kosher this is 100% wrong there's no such thing you have to eat at only kosher place the reason why is because the people that work at these restaurants told me they worked at these places like listen I worked at vegan places vegetables nothing wrong with the vegetables vegetables are fine the bugs are the problem and when you're not Jewish you don't have an obligation to clean the bugs you're going to clean the stuff that you can see clearly you're not going to work extra hard to to clean it with soap to make sure to you know put the leaf out of the way to see maybe there's a little worm there a little maggot there a little this there a little that there even if there is one oh I'm sorry sir we'll give you a new one that's all that happens they find oh I'm sorry sir we'll give you a new one we'll give you credit for next month you can eat it for free it's not a big deal to them why is not obligated to it so we are obligated every time you eat a bug it's like eating pig five times so you cannot eat at any non- kosher place now if your friend is not Kosher you can't eat at his place why because he's not watching all these things he's not if he's not keeping Shabbat he's definitely not keeping all the kosher laws even if he says like I used to say I'm eating kosher I keep kosher I only eat pizza on dominoes that's it it's only it's cheese what's the big deal with cheese then you do Chua you start learning I say oh yeah the cheese is not a problem it's the pig that's inside the cheese is the problem that's the problem the cheese itself is not a problem it's good it's the pig inside the cheese that's the problem so people say no no but I went to the mik okay you went inside the mik with the pig neither one of you is kosher neither one of you is kosher so you cannot eat just anywhere I know want do a lecture at his place in New York Tuesday night I've never seen him eat not only me no one's ever seen him eat why he doesn't eat anywhere other than his own house why he used to be a butcher in Argentina all over the world or a all over the world he says I know what's in the food I know it's in the food trust me you wouldn't want to eat anywhere either no restaurants no people's houses no he go no one knows how to keep kosi says no one knows how to keep kosi goes I can't he knows doesn't eat what does he eat when there sud or there in his own Sho give me a cookie but look at all the salads look at all this I'm like it's it's fine I'm not saying it's says for me I'm not I'm okay I'm full well you Haven eaten since yesterday I'm full I'm full I'm that's ises that's why you ask him a question he gives you a page number a line where it is on the page like computer faster than the computer computer is asking oh slow down I'm still I'm still looking why it's isad so when someone wants to be kados they have to be very careful with what they put in their mouth so you can't just eat anywhere but if the person is has if the person's a kosher person no problem you can e that house no problem I'm not telling you guys not to eat anywhere just telling you that you have to be careful because no one is going to care about your soul as much as you that's just a fact no one's going to care and if you tell people listen uh you keep kosher hey what do you think I'm a go what do you think I'm not Jewish what's wrong with you no no I'm just asking then you look at their kitchen you see the woman is cooking on Shabbat kosher it's your version of kosher it's not really kosher I'm sorry it's your version of kosher okay for your version of K it's a new religion in Judaism so again you have to be careful on some things uh and to make light of the issue now there is an a leniency for the sake of Shalom for new that need to learn to work on their mid also need to learn on the is important mid is even more important to learn Everyone likes why you memorize it like when you're in fifth grade you memorize it test you know everything you feel like a genius it's a little more difficult and the reason why is because it obligates you obligates you to change doesn't obligate anything just obligate you to remember stuff so a lot of B have problems with their families because they terrorize everyone they learn a new law they start telling everybody what to do oh rash everybody's rash all a everybody's ham everybody's IM can't believe you you why I do I give you birth you call me oh look what kind of salt you're using it's not even the ma version relax relax don't torture your family because you're CH you're supposed to bring them closer relax so obviously you cannot eat you can eat things that are outright not Kosher but if you know that the food itself is kosher you know for sure it's kosher you know that they fall to the best of their abilities that it's kosher not outright intentionally making non kosher there is a even from to eat at your parents house like your mom and dad's house not at strangers houses don't start telling me listen I eat at every person's house I do K don't tell me you're doing K in McDonald's there's no K in McDonald's your parents house your mom cooked your meal don't tell your mom imma I can't eat your food anymore you started doing CH last week I can't eat by you anymore start crying she's not gonna stop IM can't eat your food anymore why I raised you like this I gave you cush of food what's wrong no it's uh it's not closer to my standards what standards last week you were eating pig with me what happened what standards so relax don't torture the world as long as she's cooking kosher food as long as you know she's not putting Mas outright milk and meat and things like that even if she doesn't keep Shabbat you're allowed to eat her food for the purpose of not torturing the world and bringing them closer that's assuming she's Jewish and that's assuming I can't assume anything that's assuming she's Jewish it's assuming that she's not a hater because you would be surprised that theim of today are very different than theim of yesterday the wicked of today they look for different things that are in the T that are forbidden in the T and they do da the homosexuals of today different than the homosexuals of yesterday yesterday meaning past Generations if someone was homosexual did hide it be it's embarrassing I'm a sinner I'm a bu SI of the world I'm going against nature I'm G to go I'm going to publicize to the world even the dog knows better than me but what could I do I have this desire and I can't get fine they will hide it today not only they don't hide it that proud about proud about it in the past a thief would hide it he stole he stole this he stole this he'd be ashamed he pretend he has a real job you work at the store yeah but how do you have a million house you make $500 a week I you have a million dollar house no no no it's my father my father he'd hide that he stole the money today they make movies about him to make today the thief they make movies about the thieves look at this guy what a gibo robin Ood he's today's Robinhood yeah give it to the man you don't need to work they're proud of the thief today in the past someone that got off the most of the time be ashamed would go far away didn't cause much trouble today someone goes off the D someone goes from being religious not religious he looks for news outlets to interview him so he could tell everybody the scoop hey I left they tortured me there the education is bad that this is bad the marriage is bad that this is bad that is bad there's whole M shows highlighting these people that became K not only they're not ashamed they're proud of what they're doing and they want more people to do it one of the very famous Kim one of the very famous people that went off the wrote The Following letter this is in 1933 he says your think your your words have reached me your proposal has reached me there's no way that it could be accepted a state of Israel without Shabbat will never be formed in fact it will be destroyed and every I'll just say it in English and all of your work will just go to nothing to build the country this is this is the creation of a Jewish State all of your work will just go to nothing is will never give up on Shabbat this is the foundation of its existence this is the foundation of its spiritual existence without Shabbat the image of God is gone from them [Music] forever in fact without Shabbat there's nothing that distinguishes man from an animal all of the Nations the Civilized Nations accepted from is from is the seven days a week what do you think everybody China has seven days a week the Arabs have seven days a week the Greeks have seven days everybody has seven days a week where do you think seven days a week is from T this was the way that there is a seventh day of rest without it everything goes to nothing Shabbat is not just the foundation of the Civilized people AI you know Civilized Nation it's a civilized people itself this is what protected our nation throughout all of the times throughout all of the difficulties and he summarizes without Shabbat there's no Israel and there's no arm is there's no country and there's no people because Shabbat that's that's that's the that's that's us this is a person that smokes cigarettes on Shabbat his name isik a very famous Zionist who actually used to be a student in they went off the went to one time the rabbi caught him and two other students smoking on Shabbat he asked the first student why you smoking on Shabbat he said oh sorry I forgot Shabbat second St says why you smoking on Shabbat sorry I forgot you not allowed to smoke on Shabbat he as be Alik why you smoking on Shabbat he go oh I'm sorry I forgot to close the door he wasn't a shakan he wasn't a liar he's the only one out of three actually said the truth but nonetheless he had desires and he couldn't overcome them but he didn't become a liar meaning this is a person that caused so many Jews to go off this is a person that caused a lot of harm to is a lot of harm to when people say his name they say may his name be blotted out this is not a good person but even the rash of yesterday still knew the value of Shabbat today you have people making all types of newspapers against Shabbat you have people making all websites against Shabbat you have people making special businesses only to operate on Shabbat the world has changed the world has changed to such an extent that many people are dying to be green they want to be like the green and this is not different in fact from my perception it's actually happening even more so right now ever since the election When Donald Trump surprised the world and won the election got into office many Jews are celebrating it many Jews that are in the Lefty liberal mindset hate him but otherwise the conservative political stance celebrating Donald Trump as if he's the mashah people even send people even send different uh connections between him and the mashia it's the same gatria value mashia Ben David Donald Trump all types of nonsense that people create out of their out of their minds because they're so happy and now he in essence legitimize Jerusalem by moving the American Embassy there or proposing to move it there and he looks like he's a very favorable president for am is or for the state of Israel at least and people are celebrating that we're not we're not ungrateful whatever good he does thank you very much but I'm here to remind you not to forget we've seen this movie before before we've seen the movie before many many times not once not twice we've seen many many non-jewish leaders Fool Am is into thinking that things are so good it might as well be the mashiah one time there was somebody that came to the subka who used to speak against the Germans a lot look how good we're doing in Germany this is so good the Jews are in power the Jews are in government the Jews are rich the Jews are welcomed why you keep speaking against the Germans all the time look how you know how civilized they are you teach M you know how civilized the Germans are the mo they considered the most civilized people in the world why they why they considered so civilized because even when they give you their idea whatever their idea is they say don't you agree as if to ask for your your approval is important to them don't you agree don't you agree I gave an idea don't you agree with my idea like your approval is important to them Jews are not like [Music] that the said said told us it wasn't temporary when told to tell it's not a temporary thing the fakeness of asav is going to fool you that's why the say who screams to hm save me hem from the hand of my brother from the hand of asav when he's as I know to I know I need to be careful he's trying to kill me I'm scared of when he's a when he looks like me he looks like aad I'm scared then sabka says you guys think everything is good but don't forget it's still a don't get so comfortable don't trust anything and that fake behavior that they have eventually they're going to use that same fake Behavior where don't you agree to cut you up into little pieces and unfortunately he was right less than a generation later that's exactly what they did when they would take all the Jews into the concentration camps into the gas Chambers into all the different all types of disasters they put our brothers and sisters into they would say to them don't you agree thank you guy goes he's going to die now he saying thank you to him so but before this before this it also happened about 250 years ago at the time of Napoleon when Napoleon took over large part of the world many people in the Jewish world were very excited very very excited cuz he looked like he was proj looked like he liked the Jews how much did he like the Jews he said to the Jews he had some connection with some rabbis there's actually even a famous meeting between him and R and also the uh kabad rebbi rabne Rabanne and uh he said to them Let's uh let's make a people really believe mashia is here we couldn't make could not make a San in 2,000 years Napoleon is here make a new wow only problem is some of the members are reformed okay no Unity Unity no Unity but everybody thought this is the G this is great salvation is here the ruler of the world even though he's a who cares he likes the Jews things are good things are good what's the problem knew this knew that but there were letters that were discovered recently there were letters that were discovered recently and published about what was the real reason behind it Napoleon's letters and Napoleon when he was making up the sun dream he communicated with some people he told him okay we're going to need some rabbis so these are the two requirements for the rabbis first requirement that they're scared of losing money they're scared of losing their money rabbis that like money but they especially scared of losing their money the second requirement they're scared of taking big risks why if they're scared of losing their money I could always threaten him listen you don't listen to me I'm going to take everything take your house take your car take your this take your that take everything also means I can buy them Hey listen there's a new rule you're allowed to eat whatever I cook new rule I'll give you a million bucks exactly the opposite of what told M told M this how you build the judicial court one of the requirements was rabbis they hate money people that hate money why you can't buy them the second thing he says someone is scared to do big things why big things I don't want anyone to start sacrificing their life for their Judaism we don't need those people need somebody likes their life more than anybody else's and that's why you got a lot of Reform a lot of Reform rabbis joined him and some Orthodox joined him as well too if they had an opportunity and the first Sedin meeting the reform specifically made sure that it's on Shabbat to show look who want to sacrifice our life for Napoleon what are you guys doing you're not going to show up to the meeting the first meeting of s you're not going to show up how serious are you about running this country how serious about Judaism and so on and so forth and they made sure to write to the meeting on their Caravans which you're not allowed to with the horses like look we're allowed it's considered it's considered P for for Napoleon the honor of The King and I made sure to take the ballots the election on Shabbat you have to write so the reform daa would write on Shabbat the the Orthodox rabbis the few that were that were there made sure to write it already on they knew they couldn't miss the meeting because they know would lose the election and it really did become so they made sure to already brought write the cards before Shabbat but something that happened that was Masha Miracle is all this is happening in France by the way is that the person that won the head of the sun was Rabbi David sit Rabbi David s was actually an orthodox Rabbi with a lot of and for the rest of his tenure the rest of his life all he did was fight the reform all he did was fight their lies so the have always existed Wicked people have always existed the difference between then and now is that we had Rabbi David back then today we don't have that many that are willing to fight against the because today everybody wants to be Napoleon forget about support Napoleon everybody wants to be Napoleon everybody's so worried about their job and their house and their cars and competing with the Joneses and competing with money and competing with stature and competing with this competing with that no one wants to listen to Rabbi everyone wants to be the rabbi you know how many times a week I have people tell me you know what yeah I think I'm gonna be a rabbi said why don't you become a Jew first no no I I like what you're doing I'm going to become a rabbi for what what do you think you're becoming a rabbi no I like to tell I like to tell people what to do that's what you think being a rabbi is just telling people what to do people like are buying into stature they're buying into Fame Fortune no one is doing it's you're doing the right move for the for wrong reasons and it's sad but the Jews at that time of a couple hundred years ago in France were in such a bad way that the real rabbis became very very scared to such an extent that there a very famous story of the kabad reab saying it's better when they asked what's better Napoleon's going to about to go to war with Russia isn't it better the Napoleon wins and he said no it's better than the Russians win yeah but Russians are anti-semitic they hate us they're going to kill us they're going to torture us they're going to enslave us they what they're going to do to us Napo is nice to us why we want him to lose he says it's better that our physical bodies suffer than our souls be lost the way that it's going right now with Napoleon is so many Jews are so comfortable that they're becoming French they're becoming green there's uh um the assimilation that's happening is killing am within oh they're nice to us let's have dinner with them oh they're nice to us let's work with them oh they're nice to us let's do this with them all of a sudden you became French all of a sudden you became an Egyptian all of a sudden you became Greek all of a sudden you became American and kabad RB say it's better that you lose how far did he go there's actually a very famous story we actually sent a double agent he sent a to be a double agent to go up the ladder in the army of Napoleon for what so you can report everything to the Russians why why are you going to go against your government says in you should pray for your government this for your government go yeah I'm pray for my nation if it continues if it continues there's going to be no Army but we keep making the same mistakes and unfortunately a lot of people today you see what they talk about on the internet you see what they talk about in shabat you see what they talk about on a day-to-day basis I saw one there was a video someone sent to me about again one of these uh religious communities they made a video about them and a woman was an Israeli woman religious 100% from husband from these people religious religious and they're interviewing them in their house and so on they live in some community and uh he says also how is it like to you know be an Israeli goes oh oh I'm an American Jew she corrected the the journalist I'm an America she's Israeli 100% she's only living here for 15 20 years half our life more than half our life she lives in in Israel no no no I'm an American Jew I'm an American Jew support your country now I'm not telling everybody to are going against the government Shalom I'm not telling anybody to become anti what I'm trying to imply to you is that we're making the same mistake we are forgetting where we came from We're forgetting that at the end at the end you're a Jew first everything else second if there is time for anything else we made that mistake in Egypt we made that mistake in Greece we made the mistake in every single every single time there was a major program Inquisition Holocaust something we made that mistake now in last week's par we had this secret that if anybody didn't hear this should hear it it's worth say it again with an additive there was a few very special women that were mentioned last week's and the women were the mother of Moshe Aon should be Aon Moshe andam also Elish the wife of Aron also the daughter of puel which is another name for yet um Jethro the mother of Pinas and it was also the V the um the which is really another name for the Dina Four Women now these four women are in essence like a map for us of they're a map for us of what to do and what not to do in the days of mashia which is the days we find ourselves in now in the mid and also in the page 11 it says that Isel had the Merit to be saved from Egypt because of the righteous women but in a different mid it says that had the Merit of being saved from Egypt because they didn't change their language because they didn't change their clothes because they didn't change their name and also another mid says because they didn't make any sex crimes they didn't assimilate with the green some Sayes three things some Sayes four things nonetheless they did a few things right so we see how the two mid are both right and are both right why if it's the righteous women then of course they're not going to change their name of course they're not going to change their clothes and becoming modest of course they're not going to act like the go of course they're not going to make any sex crimes and so on so it it matches both are right but we never hear too much about these women how who who did this when was this it's in this this par the Paras says first and foremost there is y y says that and a few other places also says and is a that says that the uh sh and Pua they were the mate servants that saved the Jewish babies when par said go kill them they didn't kill them when he said to them why didn't you kill them like no no they're they're not like the Jew they're not like the Egyptians they're like uh they give birth too fast they don't need our help we don't have a chance to kill them in reality they lied why they lied they didn't kill the Jewish babies why they because they had mind they were afraid of God for that fear of God for that fear of God what did she get she got a son by the name of Aon Aon that all of Amel depends on him because he's the coin everybody needs to be purified you got to go to Aron got to go to coin she got for that she gotu prophet of all prophets speaks to God face to face and what else did she get she got Miram there's a mid also mentioned it also in it says thatav comes from so one of of our sons is the coin another son is bigger than anyone that's ever going to be or was even the mashia is not going to be as big ASU and the last one her daughter comes also for what didn't say listen she she didn't open she didn't do K yes but still over over 1.2 million in history why she get at the time A Moment of Truth she was willing to put her life on the line something special she got rewarded to Eternity the next one is Elish comes she was married toon married to it's good it's good good at least $10,000 for that but she also comes from a good family her brother Ison nakon happens to be the one that jumped and had fulla at the moment of truth to jump into the sea of reeds and say listen Hashem brought us here behind us are the Egyptians that want to kill us right or left are scorpions and snakes they're going to kill us in front of us is water Hashem wants us to go forward how I don't know it's hashem's problem I'm going in the water at the moment of truth when other people want to become you know uh slaves again commit suicide go to war whatever it was he says I'm going with hem at the moment of truth and comes from he's from the tribe of Yuda that's Elisha's brother meaning she comes from the same family as the mhia same family on top of it a husband coad it's not so easy to be married to a coin Gad everybody wants his attention all the time it's not just a few thousand emails it's uh doesn't stop last but not least the daughter of puel daughter of puel married the son of Aon and had the Merit to have a son named pinhas Pinas saved the nation when we all sinned and I say we because we were there when we all sinned and went with the Goot and because we couldn't control ourselves Hashem decided okay no warning I'm just going to kill all of them and he gave and put a plague on that within moments 24,000 people died moments it wasn't like he got sick oh on Tuesday he had a cold on Wednesday his head hurt on Thursday he started coughing no no no moments people died the page 88 says P saw this he came to mosenu he said Moshe isn't the that you taught us yourself that when a Jew and a non-jew are together you're allowed to kill them when they're physically actually together in the moment that they're actually together you're allowed to kill them forgot why he forget the he remembers everything why does he forget specifically wanted to give so M tells P go you remembered you said it go do it he goes into the camp of the tribe of Shimon Shimon was like a president had millions of people surrounding him Paparazzi and everything he goes he says oh let me see let me see what's going on here I'm one of you I'm one of you I'm one of you he goes inside the camp he goes inside the place he see Shimon that leader of Shimon um uh Zim cohabitating with kby the non-jew he kills them in the middle of the ACT he kills them in the middle of the ACT gives specifics of how and who and what 10 Miracles 10 Miracles that happened during this moment one of them was the fact that Pinas as soon as he killed them his people came in they saw him killed their leader they wanted to kill him he died P died from Fear he died hasem put first miracle hasem took his put it back inside but with extra strength now extra strength to pick up both bodies on his Spear and push everyone out of the way and to show it to all the camps this is what happens when you go against hem and then he threw the bodies and he says for this hasem you killed 24,000 for this for these people for these sinners and from P comes some say p when he died reincarnated ASI some say he never died he became who never died nonetheless this Eli The Book of Malachi says has to come three days before mashia soai we see here here three special women so far all connected to mhia First you have P he has to come three days before mashia has to come three days before mashia then mashia has to come from the tribe of Yuda then obviously the mhia is gonna have to be is going to be able to the books are saying the book of Jeremiah also Zakaria says he going to be able to smell what because I'm coming from our daughter from how can we be saved don't make the mistake the can made what the what mistake did thean make why is she called Kanan her name is Dina why is she calledit she's called because in chapter 34 verse one the Book of Genesis it says din went to look what everyone else was doing what are the go doing why you care what the go are doing why aren't you proud to be a Jew why do you care about who and what he has this house he has that house he has this building he has that building what do you care you're a prince of God you're Prince you're a Son of God you want more you're a daughter of God you want more what do you care what they have you know what you're supposed to do when it says in the morning the morning blessings you're supposed to say thank you God for not making me a non-jew for for making me not making me a in reality the rler Shalom he didn't care anything about politics didn't care about anything about Tor you whisper T to his ear he starts smiling even in a hospital bed somebody whispered T and is just the word t not like just wh of the word to all of a he got strength so one day he comes to the in the morning to his bet mid and he says who who won the American election all the students are like since when do you care about American election because no no I need to do I need to say thank you God for not making me a I need to know who to who to who to have in mind which president one I want to make sure it's in mind thank you for not making me him the best one of them thank you for not making me him thank you that's what the value of being that's someone understands what it means to be a Jew everyone looks up to Donald Trump and Bill Gates and Warren Buffett and whatever nonsense they they they achieved in the world are they bringing mashia no can you yes so this is some stuff that you can take with you for the rest rest of the week and for the rest of your life to learn from these four holy women because all four of them were holy even Dina if Dena wasn't holy she wouldn't be mentioning the to at all but she made a mistake she didn't go make a mistake like some of us where we became a go for a while she just looked just looked what are they doing why do you care why do you care what they do and I see this all the time where a lot of young kids young kids 20 25 15 even and I see them and they're all dying to be LeBron James they're all dying to be I don't know Warren Buffett they're all dying to be somebody that's not part of am and the reality is that it all starts at home it all starts with their parents if the parents talk about basketball baseball stock market real estate all of those things on Shabbat or throughout the whole week that's what you kids are going to want to be if the kids are going to talk about RAB AKA if you're going to talk about mosu you talk about something that's meaningful for when a mhia arrives something meaningful for when the clock ends and we have to go up to theed of sh then your kids are going to know what to say when they show up there and the worst thing that you can do to a child is put him in a life where he has to do Chua for being in your house worst thing you can do is give the kid a life where at some point in his life when he's 15 20 25 35 45 55 has to do Chua why because you're his father you're his mother and you didn't teach him anything valuable he taught him about the stock market instead it's very difficult to do TR it's very difficult because you have to admit that everything you know is wrong naturally you don't want to do that even when you know you're wrong you don't want to do that no one wants to admit that they're wrong it's hard to admit that you're wrong you have to be mosu for a moment you don't even know who he is yet how you gonna be like him so the best gift you can give your kids the best gift you can give each other the best gift you can give yourselves is be proud Jew be proud you stop hiding it stop uh thinking that you could have been better oh no but if I had his money I would do this this and this if hasem wanted you to have the money'd have it which means that if you don't have it it's good for you don't have it because you wouldn't do what you're saying you're going to do you wouldn't do it so this is a little bit of information that you can learn from last week's par I mean there's obviously plenty more but I'm sure you guys have some more questions go ahead how can somebody for you have to learn you have to learn toah day and night you have to learn make literally meaning that you have to learn toah in the day and you have to learn toah at night during the day you can work whatever your job is you know whether you're a consultant or you're a investor or you're a bus driver or you're what whatever you are that's your day but that also is just part of your life when you make the mistake that I made for many years which is you make your job your life then you have no life when your job is your life you have no life again third time when your job is your life you have no life yeah but I like it exactly you have no life you're not going to work cuz you like it you're going to work to make money cuz you need to eat and the proof in the pudding is is if you didn't make money and something else gave you money you do that so you don't like your job as much as you think you like it the reality is is that once you address and and and use your job for what it is number one you'll be better at it you're not going to go there and waste time if I know that my job is to do this this and this go sell stocks go sell cars go sell houses go whatever it is that you're doing you're selling something everyone just salesman lawyer a Salesman doctor a Salesman a nurse is a Sal everybody's a sales you're always selling something selling yourself selling your service selling your time selling your intellect everyone's selling something don't fool yourself everyone's a Salesman what are you selling if you know this is just a job and it's not your life then you're going to make sure that when you're there you're doing your job and you're leaving as soon as you're out of there the job stays at the job your wife to your husband you're husband to your wife you're a Son of God you're a daughter of God you're Life Begins the job is just part of it if your job is your life you can't do that why because as soon as you leave you're already thinking about tomorrow you're trying to think you know what maybe I should do extra work now so I catch up for tomorrow you're going to be catching up throughout a 25 year career you're never going to finish there's never an end to the work never an end because if your job is the type of job that exists in the world today that means there's always going to be more work tomorrow if there's no work tomorrow that means you're gon to go out to business tomorrow there has to be more work so if your job is your life you have no life why because you're not going to have the mental capacity to serve God you're not going to have the mental capacity to be a husband you're not going to have the mental capacity to connect to your your wife to connect to your children to connect to God himself all you're going to connect to is things that are material so you're going to pray to God you're going to go to be pray to God but for what money one time somebody came to ra again shalom in the morning prayers sh after sh he give him a check and this guy again says this guy was worth at least $100 million had some money could do something good with that money gave a check again can't go wrong now he says give me a blessing please and ra again says you know I wanted to know what is somebody that has so much material want there a $100 million plus what could he possibly want so I told him you know what ask me for one thing like that's how you know if somebody really wants if you tell them ask me for 15 things he give you I want this I want this I want this I want you don't know what he wants what he doesn't really want I want bumba I want beastley I want the carrot I want a house here what house what do you want get chopping list give me one thing one thing you has to think about it so a guy makes has a100 million what does he ask for the uh good kids what what does he ask for good income you have a100 million it's not enough it's not enough Asar said you give him 100 he want 200 he want 200 he go 100 that's a person has no God he's so poor all he has is money he's so poor all he has is money there's many people like that so when your job is your life you have no life your life needs to be something that's beyond your job because your job will end at some point either you'll retire or you'll pick a new job or you'll change a job whatever it is if your job is your life you're looking for trouble so that's why Hashem gave us a program a program that will begin and complete your day a way to do business a way to fulfill your role as a husband or a wife a way to fulfill your your role as a brother or a sister give us the mitv give us 613 mitv and the rabis added another seven not the other way around like some people think that it's seven from the Torah and 63 from rabbis it's not 613 from hasem Seven from the rabbis and those seven by the way that everyone that likes to go against the rabbis those seven other the favorites what is it everybody likes to go against the rabbis no the rabbis did this the rabis you know the rabbis they made Hanukah who doesn't like kanuka the rabbis made the puim who doesn't like puim and so on and so forth the rabis made a keeper keeper everyone that's a Jew or non-jew likes to wear keeper now all of a sudden it's stylish to be to be a Jew to wear keeper every time you see somebody that's a Messianic for sure he says a Messianic Jew how you how do you represent your Messianic Judaism where talit where talit and the keep keep is bigger than his head and talit so everyone's worried about exterior Judaism you have many many non-jews in the world today they look more Jewish than any Jew in the world why they beard is to the floor they they have cish clothes not from today not like they have Kish clothes from the days of the ramb every looks like the r they'll start quoting you verses they have the profile pictures on the internet they always have t on always always at Mount saai everyone's at Mount Si 24 hours a day or you tell the guy okay you're Mount sign I want to convert at least oh no no it's a uh I can't fight the right Community if that's religious enough for me no one's religious enough for you and mount sa no one everybody's exterior Judaism exterior Judaism and they always want to tell the world how they feel about everyone else that's not religious enough for them no one's religious enough for them so so the key is to make sure that first and foremost you fix the inside you work on your inside of course you have to be modest of course you have to look the part of course you have to be proud of what you are you have a reason to be proud but hm gave you these MIT to take up your day to keep you focused on him all the time because if if you're not focused on him you're going to fail a few months ago I gave you guys a uh K about when uh the uh Rabbi um Lee that wrote the book from for art scroll the Anthology where he put all the different commentaries in it he had some of his own words in and one of the things that he said is that according to his understanding of the page 52b is that if you're ever gonna give a rabbi money or or even a tip even a tip to your counselors and for your kids uh camp on summer camp always give it in a me way in a way that's respectable put it in an envelope don't give it to them in their hands they'll give them $20 $50 20,000 if it's 20,000 you give it in hands but if it's $20 $200 if something smaller don't give it to them in their hands don't give it to them in their hands put it in an envelope why it's not it's not respectable for the Torah that they have for the responsibility that they have to just give them cast like they're paper boy when I was a kid I was a newspaper boy and I didn't mind if they gave me 5 10 15 $100,000 in cash in their hands didn't make a difference but now you learned to he says no don't take it in hands so says he says no don't give it to them in their hands what's the really this is an understanding from the what's the really thear really says that when ignorant person person doesn't know much sees a rabbi for the first time and initially how does he view him says initially he's like a golden jar beautiful perfect gold untouched pure Priceless once he starts talking nonsense to him like Hey so what do you think of trump hey so what do you think of the stock market hey what do you think of Bitcoin or this coin or that coin hey what do you think of I know some sport as soon as he starts just one conversation not on a regular basis one first conversation we talked about instead of mhu we talked about some sports star or some president of some country immediately gar says he drops to Silver but if the rabbi accepts a gift from him he immediately drops to Clay which once broken can never be fixed meaning as soon as that line is broken he starts accepting gifts like it a that's my boy oh Rabbi so and so that's my boy like one guy I I remember in boka and boa in a synagogue and uh I I was meeting some people over there and uh somehow the the name RAB mrai came up I said yeah he's a uh mrai Kad he's amazing and one of these little Heroes says oh Yosi yeah yeah yeah Yosi I know Yosi I'm like wait who's Yosi who's Yosi Oh you mean Yi M I'm like you mean RAB M yeah yeah Yosi Yi so I to me I was like I don't know like would you just come out of a rock like who are you like you don't understand you have to give a rabbi some honor I mean something like who's this guy he goes no I know him from years ago and he start telling me like a brief history so I actually I called at some other point like yeah you know I met this guy that knows you goes oh yeah yeah you should these guys him and his brother I saved both them both of them were the biggest Kim in the world both of them were the biggest Kim in the world they didn't know what they were right or left I took them out out of whatever horrible situation they were in 25 years ago 20 years ago and the kids are going to school the part of a now how they doing he tells me nice you know how they doing how they doing I haven't se him a long time I said oh yeah they're doing fine I didn't tell him hopefully he doesn't watch the you I'm gonna see him tomorrow see him tomorrow so but I'm thinking to myself this this ungrateful person that had his family and his brother's family saved can't even give the rabbi enough respect to call him Rabbi Yosi even if the Rabbi says yeah call me Yosi call me whatever you want you still can't do it why he's not your friend what happened what happened I don't know I didn't ask I'm just assuming they f failed in this gar they failed in this gar and said maybe there's some money exchange T maybe they gave some money as soon as they gave money they thought they bought the rabbi they bought the they bought the rabbi so now they don't call Rabbi They Call Yosi instead like no other unfortunately where's the source for this there's a source of the source a source you guys following the original sour so original thing we said in sh five six months ago was don't give a rabbi money in in in a hand envelope source to what's the source to this source to this is why kak how do you think kak got 250 of the the biggest rabbis in the world to sign off say not only do we agree with kak we agree with going against M that speaks to God face to face I mean you have to be really stupid to do such a thing if you like he wasn't a originally he was actually he was a he was a prophet he was from the he was from the family of Lev it's good if you like him there's no problem you like him it's not a problem liking him what's the problem he just went against M it's something wrong with you the same mosenu that saved all is the same M that all of is owes their life to the same the same M that speaks to God face to face the same that just got the Tor the same that was willing to die for all of is when hasem says let me destroy them and I'll start a new nation from you he says if you're going to destroy them destroy me first the same he just went against him how could 220 of the 250 of the biggest rabbis in the world agree to go against mosenu because of korak how korak gave him a little bit of money korak whined and DED them they started enjoying the material world so much and they said you know what kak maybe you should be president maybe you should be president we'll support you we'll vote for for you we vote for you kak and with that little bit of tip that he gave them they became friendly so friendly they're still together in G together says so friendly no that's says you guys keep think talk about Gom all the time what the says what do you want for my life says they in Gom together why they became friends they became friends they called them Yosi you understand so you have to understand the Tor teaches us things that seem like everything you do wrong it's the worst punishment somebody wrote a comment the other day like come on this two death penalty this two death everything is death penalty so let me explain that everything is death penalty let me explain that and then you could ask questions and we'll finish for the night it's not that everything in a Tor that you violate is a death penalty there's plenty of things that if you violate it it's not death penalty for example if a person Steals and they get caught they have to pay back double so he stole 100 gives 200 so mid has to give $130 billion back um and many many other things things that people do the punishment is not death penalty but why is a death penalty mentioned at least once in every sh that we make Shalom we're not morbid people we don't like to think about death in such a way such a disrespectful way but we talk about it because based on the punishment we understand the magnitude of the mitzvah if I see there's one Mitzvah that if you fulfill it it's good if you don't fulfill it you get slapped in the face you get a whip okay have have next to it 36 other mitv that if you don't do it it's not only a slap it's Eternal punishment which one would you like for me to mention the one you're just going to get a slap for it's not going to help you why the one you're going to get a slap for you're going to go up to sh G say listen you know I didn't do this I didn't do this I didn't do this okay listen those little things you didn't do is not really such a big deal it's the one big thing you didn't do you didn't keep Shabbat you didn't keep you didn't do these big things the little things okay it's not good you have to pay for it but that's temporary at six months three months three hours five hours a year five years punishment whatever it is not good but it's not Eternal that's why we mention it do you understand so it's not that everything is death penalty is that I rather I don't know how much I'm gonna how many times I'm going to see you that's the way I told somebody that it's a very very smart big I started doing k and succeeding in it but initially he was getting a few people to Cha but lately he's on a rooll on a rooll I'm telling you he does a lecture 10 people do cha on the spot in Israel what changed do like already for a while what changed one time we had a conversation I told him listen this is my This Is My Philosophy I go to a lecture and I look whoever is there I don't know if I'm ever going to see them again there's no guarantee I'm ever going to see them again maybe they like the lecture and so much that they don't come back again maybe they like me so much they don't want to see me again maybe they move maybe their internet breaks down maybe what whatever Satan had one guy came to one lecture did Chua never came to another lecture again but he can't text me on the phone all the time tells me on the phone I did cha you changed my life I I'm going to come to the lecture no I'm busy I'm you did cha after one lecture you don't come to any more lectures imagine did you after one lecture what would happen after 10 you become one lecture the guy changed his whole life one lecture I'm telling T everything I said one lecture you did everything he goes everything I keep I'm like so why don't you come to my le I'm busy I watch you online I do this I do I'm like one next to you came look what happened if you come 10 next es mashia so anyway it says some people like so much they don't come to the lecture so my understanding is maybe I'm never going to see you again so I talk if I'm never going to see you again at least you could take this with you you can take this one mitvah with you where you know don't do this one thing I learned from this guy maybe he's this guys maybe could tell a lot of things about me but you know what this one thing I know for sure don't violate Shabbat don't mess with God on Shabbat don't mess with with God on modesty don't mess with I know one thing I learned from the lecture I like it didn't like it bottom line you learned it that's one thing that you can take home something that's practical it's practical Judaism if I see you again we'll learn more together but if I don't at least I know you learn one thing that maybe is going to save you eternity maybe you're doing everything else who knows so that's what this said you know what I'm going to try it before he was doing lectures and it was very nice things very smart things but he said once in a while I uh see Chua here and there but now every lecture I go into I tell him it was always the truth but now there's a sense of urgency where you know what listen there's this one thing Shabbat modesty whatever it is there's one thing he always picks the different lectures whatever Hashem wants him to say he picks it he says at the end of the lecture there's at least a few people that said you know what this one thing changed everything for me and that's the way you got to be because you don't know who you're going to see you don't know what you're going to see you gota you got to look at things that way and that makes you a lot more successful when you're doing K now this is when you're a speaker when you're not a speaker the way you can apply the same principle is don't overthink you a lot of people ask me oh listen I have the his friend and uh I want to give him a CD I want to give him a lecture but I'm not really sure if he's going to like this lecture do you have any ideas of what lecture I should give him and when I should send it to him should I send it to him on a Tuesday should I send him on a Friday should I bring him to here should I really do this and they overthink the whole thing yeah but he really doesn't this but I'm not sure if he's gonna like this one this one you said something about this this one you said something about that do you have something else do you have something this you have they think it's like a menu for food yeah have something this you have something this no but over here no no but you said something about this you said something about that you have something else you have something else you have something else I think it's like uh you know the the supermarket no no not that burger the burger with the out the little seeds in it no no not the burger with the seeds the one with the leaves no no no not that one the one without the leaves no you know what the Le bring back the leaves hey you think it's like a butcher no with the breast on in the leg and the head and the don't overthink it pick something sent it doesn't matter to who so that's why everybody says oh you know what can you call him I don't have anything to do my my day I'm I'm waiting for your call to tell me to call somebody else I said listen the system works like this I need to make sure that they're willing to help themselves now in order for them to be willing to help themselves that means they need to know they need help so the first thing is is that I need to see that they understand they need something something needs to change second thing is that that will to do the work I can't do it for them I can talk to them until I'm blew in the face if they're not willing to change they're not willing to learn nothing's going to change so I sent an introductory letter with a letter with a uh link of my personal story why two things are going to happen here number one if they're willing to entertain anything new they'll click they'll listen after they listen they'll decide if I am the vehicle that they're willing to listen to because even if you like the way I speak and you like the things that I say they may not so there's no point of me calling them and speaking to them until I'm blew in the face if they're if I'm not the vehicle they're not willing to accept the information from me so the first thing is I need them to watch the lecture the second thing is if they're not then you say o but it's a long lecture it's two hours exactly if they're not willing to watch a two-hour lecture there's no point point they're not willing to do the work to be a Jew you have to be willing to do the work you can't be a Jew for free you can't be a Jew after five minute clips for all those people that think that they're doing chuva just watching Clips all day that's not chuva that's nice we make the clips so it gives you gives you a little strength to get through the day while you're outside I don't know if you're smoking a cigarette still or if you're still uh you're on a bus or you're waiting for the bus or you're at the store waiting for the kosher sandwich or whatever it is you have something to do instead of looking at the things you're not supposed to look at you could watch a five or 10 minute clip but that's not your Torah that's something to keep you going it's something to keep you going but if all you're watching is Clips it's not enough you learn Torah from books you learn Torah from Full lectures not from five minute Clips yeah but what if I watch 20 Clips a day great good for you why can't you why can't you read a book too why you being spiritually lazy and this is what I'm going to finish it with I'm going to finish it with something that all of you need to take home today we've talked what we've talked we've said what we've said we heard about the go that we don't want to be like anymore we heard about the that we don't want to be like we heard about the of yesterday we heard about the of today wored about the mssiah wor about the people going to bring the mashiah back then and today where all these wonderful things now we all know that at some point there's going to be a bed de we have to face either here or up there before you let the yet win the next time he comes to you because he's gonna come and he tells you don't come to a lecture or the says don't open the book go do something else don't press play don't open the book don't go to Sho don't do this don't be modest before the next time the next time that he tells you don't learn more just imagine this wouldn't it suck that they're GNA tell you in sham it's like you know what Shabbat passed this passed this passed this passed but failed what do you mean I passed all these things yeah you passed the minimum requirement but to get to ganeden you didn't pass why you were spiritually lazy you were spiritually lazy you passed a few things you slept all of Shabbat you slept all of Shabbat good for you you slept the whole Shabbat you have on Shabbat you did but with no you learned T but only through Clips here and there once in a blue moon just when you had nothing to do you gave but not enough you did this but not so much you did this but not so much you did everything was lazy work most ambitious guy on Wall Street work you were the most ambitious guy in whatever street you work on and the best career the best salary the best guy they wrote papers about you college kids are admiring your ambition they want to be a scientist like you they want to be a entrepreneur like you you were the most ambitious person in the world when it came to being like everyone else when it came to being Like benem Son of God daughter of God you were spiritually lazy for that my son for that my daughter you failed wouldn't it suck you worked your whole life 70 80 90 100 years you thinking you're sadik you give Saka you went to this you did this you you you think did a lot you go up to Sham spiritually lazy failed cuz everything you did not enough not because you didn't do enough per se you didn't do anything but because when you compare business that was your life religion part of your life Judaism is part of your life business that was your life supposed to be the opposite that's what makes you a Jew any questions before we finish they say so tomorrow we're going to have the uh sh and queens there is a uh I mean it seems like it's going to happen uh that we're gonna be able to put it on live uh on the internet you'll be able to watch it on
