[Music] if uh you a person never gets married um or marri a divorce never gets married and married and divorce are two completely different animals why because someone that never gets married assuming that they tried to get married they weren't like one of these people that just became depressed and decided they're not going to get married or they Wast their Time dating people and pretending to be married like some people do in a secular world where they live together for 15 years without getting married you know that's that's that's a mistake that's a person that's going to get punished severely for such a thing but if they L literally they looked for a I have a cousin he's an enormous enormous something out of this world he only learns to doesn't work he only learns to from morning tonight he's a rabbi gives in Hebrew you're never going to see him on the internet you're never going to see him holding a phone even but he is already almost 50 years old 48 49 years old and he's still single never been married he wants to get married but he cannot find a girl that's willing to marry someone that's not willing to work only wants to learn toah can't fine everybody wants him to work everybody wants him to work at least part-time he's not willing to part with the Torah he says he's only going to learn to life she wants him to work in and until this day he hasn't had the married to find a and of course this Kal has to be very special has to be somebody that uh is willing to marry someone that's a full-time with no intention whatsoever of ever working even if it's like oh why don't to become a rabbi that makes a living no not even that he wants to learn to day and night that's what he wants in his life he's a handsome guy enormous to have find a special woman hasm hasn't sent it yet hasn't sent yet does that mean he's never going to get married I you hopefully he does get married you know it's I I even tried myself to see maybe I know somebody but he only speaks Hebrew doesn't speak a word of English so I don't really know that many people that speak only Hebrew and that are in that caliber where they're you know willing to marry uh and also he doesn't necessarily want a uh a woman that's married with uh you know that's Divorced with three kids he doesn't want that he wants you know he wants a woman that's also never got married and he wants to have kids so he doesn't want to marry someone that's a uh you know can't have kids so again he what knows what he wants and uh he hasn't found it yet hasm hasn't sent it yet does that mean that he'll get punished for it no he's trying he tried he went on it just it hasn't succeeded he's not going to get punished for it there are some people in the world Shalom on him on anybody but there are certain people in the world that their tun of marriage was already completed in the previous Carnation and it's decreed from heaven for them not to get married during this life so they try and it simply won't won't happen there are some people like that but again you still have to try that no one is absolved from trying everybody has to try to get married everybody has to try to to find someone I I know several people that uh told me when they were younger when they were in their 30s they thought they had more time when they were in their 40s they didn't really feel like getting married anymore they like their freedom now that they're in their late 50s and in one case in her 60s says she can't wait to die why she feels lonely and she knows she made a mistake she didn't have kids and she didn't get married and she thought she's going to be free like a 30-year-old uh for the rest of her life and you know in essence she realized she made a mistake of her life so don't be a fool it doesn't matter how old you are you're 20 you're 30 you're 50 you're 60 don't give up try to get married try to get married I uh I have a um one of the MIM one of the MIM one of the biggest MIM that I in a previous Name Escapes Me Shalom after his first wife passed away uh he married a uh a woman that was I think something like 40 years younger than him uh something out of this world he he got married at 80 something years old maybe even 90 years old he got married and she would fit him she uh lunch what was his lunchi was only ate bambba anybody knows bambba is let's only ate breakfast lunch and dinner your lunch is ready your lunch is ready what's lunch bambba that's all he ate what she would get anyway she was a big sadika big big sadik because she wanted to be married to one of the biggest rabbis in the world even though he was literally double her age or more and she uh she she is very praiseworthy woman and uh she did it for all the right reasons there's not many women in the world like that but the point being is that we see that even even the biggest rabbis in the world got married multiple times after uh you know you know they uh their first wives passed away uh you know before them uh in some cases some rabbis got married multiple times uh R AKA got married multiple times the G believe got married a couple of times several several big Aban got married a few times so uh the point is is that everybody has to try to get married to have a spouse and it's not just for the intimate reasons there are other reasons to have a partner than just intimacy surely intimacy is a very big deal it's very important but nonetheless it's not the only reason to be married so uh a person should always try to get married never give up never have the attitude that oh maybe I'm not destined to to uh to get married because Rabbi said it inure so I already fixed my T no don't take what I said that way there are some people if they died without getting married and they tried then you can conclude they already complete their tun of marriage in the previous Carnation but so long as someone's alive they have to try to get married and it's very very important for the get married and to answer your question more directly if somebody was destined to not get married married in this Carnation in this life because he already fixed it or she already fixed it in the previous Carnation what happens when they get resurrected they get resurrected with the person that they completed that tun with in the previous life they get resurrected and usually it's very uh the uh the um say I believe I saw it by and also the it says that usually the persons uh and I think they're quoting the Z uh that uh usually the person remarries the same spouse in every reincarnation usually when he has to do a tun usually the wife has to do a t and when she has to do a t he has to do a tun usually their T are connected to each other somewhere or another and they end up remarrying each other over and over again so it's that's another thing that a lot of people don't know not necessarily rule of thumb she doesn't have to come back if she was aad and he was a rash she doesn't have to come back but it's very uncommon for her to be a and him be a very very uncommon it's not very rare it's more likely that they're both or they're both uh as it says a woman build a woman destroys so the righteousness of the husband is a lot to do with the with the uh with the wife and vice versa let's say you don't have enough time to complete the whole sh service while being at home before work you do the required are you penalized for not completing or you just lose the Merit if for some reason you never get married or marry and divorce wrong person will you be reunited with a soulmate in the next life oh she asking double header okay so first question is a when you're praying when you do part part of the prayer instead of the uh full prayer if you fulfilled the main parts such that that are then you have fulfilled your obligation of prayer and not praying the rest of it you lost the Merit you lost the uh you know the the uh the extra stuff that does not mean that you should continue just praying that you should pray more than that but the point is is that yeah it's not a uh sin like you missed the whole prayer or something like that we learned that hem maintains the world because of Torah study otherwise the world would cease is this the is this only study of or any study like M fantastic question fantastic question so the goes says to the Prophet Jeremiah that if it's not from my Covenant my Torah being learned day and night the rules of the world will cease to exist whether it be gravity or it be the way that the uh chemicals and atoms and so on connect to each other or simply our ability to breathe world will simply cease to exist now so he says what's is my Covenant what's my Covenant Tor what's Tor T is everything that's related to T the oral t or the T either WR reading in or learning a or learning or learning a t or giving a or learning some or learning some and so on any part of the to anything anything even you learning even you learning and actually even I would say not even it's a uh it's a high level of learning with what you learn with your kids you learn the little kids you got a little four five six seven year old kid tell long time ago there was a sadik named abam what is sadik Aba what sadik sadik is someone that's really righteous does everything hasem says oh what's hem what's AEM hem he's the one that created the whole world everything that you see Hashem made it so who made the sun hasem who made the sky Hashem who made you Hashem who made everything Hashem that is tah that is tah and guess what don't that little kid he's going to say okay well you know he doesn't he doesn't know how to read yet so but he know he's starting to learn letters alive bit say when a boy girl learn that's when a boy or girl learn Al that's T that's so if it's not for that the world could simply disintegrate so all everything everything everything is a is maintaining the world and that's also part of the reason I think we answered this question last week part of the reason of why who made the world in such a fashion that there is a uh North Pole South Pole and there's different people with different hours meaning that here I'm in America it's a 7 hours behind Israel and it's 17h hour difference I believe to uh to Australia and uh so on and so forth it's different times why would Hashem made make the world different hours where it's day here but night there and so on and so forth in order to make sure that his world continues in order to make sure that his world continues because sometimes somebody's going to be able to learn at night but not during the day so what happens hasem makees sure that there's somebody else in the world that well when it's day for that guy that he can't learn there's somebody else in the world that's learning somebody else in the world that's learning during that time so that way there someone always learning 24 hours a day in the world because over there it's day over there it's night over there is busy over there is less busy and so on and so forth uh Ruben says sh says that gay people come back as rabbits yeah you're right because the the rabbits are promiscuous uh animals as everyone knows and obviously the homosexuals whether male or female homosexuals are by far the most promiscuous beasts that exist in the world even more than animals uh the only thing that's on their mind is uh intimacy and uh like like pure animals which actually by the way is also the reason why uh why brought the the plague of the wild beasts that came to attack the Egyptians because the Egyptians like to uh not only be homosexual but they like to be homosexual in uh with with with many people and uhem says just like you acted like animals I'm going to bring animals but just like you acted like animals with many I'm going to bring many different type of animals because you act like different type of animals and this is in midash Raba uh section 15 uh peric 15 Section 27 so yeah being homosexual is definitely a uh a disaster and punishes very very harshly one of the punishments is for a person has to be reincarnated as a rabbit now don't think that it's a Fluff cute rabbit that has a good time continuing being promiscuous that rabbit is suffering every single second that it exists because it knows that has a in it are nohy women obligated to keep the laws of modesty uh technically there's there's more leniencies for for noahides but it's highly recommended for noahides to keep modesty because when a woman is immodest it leads to a lot of sins that uh are sins for no hides that are in Ence a permanent death penalty uh so in essence it's highly highly recommended at least highly recommended for a woman to be modest but uh in most opinions would tell you that it's also obligated because if a woman is not modest she could lead other men to uh be promiscuous with themselves with her with other people and that will go on her bill and in essence that will destroy her n so uh in so many words yes obligated to be uh to be modest no hide or not how do you know your previous life from praying we do we ask to not bring up past trans transgressions and ask for full forgiveness or sin transgressions why would we still pay for our past sins and present sins uh because some sins uh a person did not uh pay for them yet you know sometimes a person has to be reincarnated in order to pay for his sins like we learned from the many times there are certain people that were born with certain uh uh deformities if you will in order to pay for previous sin a person is uh uh let's say born uh without the a mute he's not able to speak perhaps it could be the according to that a person said a lot of in the previous life so in order for him to fix himself he has to live a whole life without speaking a single word uh you know so there are certain things but we also learned from uh from this week's par uh that we're introduced to the 12 tribes they they were righteous they were sikim they were amazing uh but we also see in thear that uh the leading opinion is that the uh 12 tribes the 10 of them had to uh or nine of them 10 of 10 of them had to be uh reincarnated as the 10 Martyrs that were uh the biggest R AKA and uh and many of theim that were murdered in Cold Blood and in vicious ways at the time of the where theim would literally peel their bodies sell their meat in the market and so on and so forth the worst possible days death that could ever uh be in this world they they got and the say that the these Martyrs these 10 Martyrs were the 12 tribes were the the the you know UD and and so on and so forth why would it why would theim our a our 12 tribes have to be reincarnated they were complete sikim why they have to be reincarnated because we find out that at the end of that story that YF YF died 10 years before his brothers he uh died at age 110 unlike his brothers that died at 120 and say that that's because he never he got punished for not forgiving his brothers he got punished for not forgiving his brothers uh but uh so he got punished for it how did they get punished for him not forgiving them they had to be reincarnated because he never completely forgave them says they had to be reincarnated they had to be reincarnated as the 10 Martyrs so that means that although they were extremely righteous and they did and they said I'm sorry part of that chuva required a reincarnation part of that chva required a reincarnation but surely they didn't have the same test in the next life as they did in the first life but point being is that uh sometimes reincarnation is a necessity how can kanuk and be relevant to today's attack against Jews and Judaism uh well I mean listen the whole the whole uh story of kanuka that we discussed earlier today is that you have a uh constant attack against Judaism not just physically but spiritually by spiritually and and unfortunately in the last generation it's going to look like the uh the the wicked people are winning so the only way that a person can survive and stay a sadik stay a sadik and not become a helist is by having in the 13 principles of Faith which is that hasem rewards the righteous and punishes the wicked you know so it's very important for a person to have in the promises of the Tor if a person does not have does not have confidence inm's promises he could easily become a helist and unfortunately that's what happens a lot of times that people you know start doing certain MIT because they expect good things right away they don't get it and they you know they say listen if Hashem doesn't do this for me I'm going to stop being religious and that's not uh that's not the right way to to do things it's a very stupid thing to do unfortunately but unfortunately many people think that hasm works for them and that's a mistake that's a mistake so having is critical because if you have if you have confidence in hm you know that in the end in the end you will be rewarded in the end you'll be rewarded even if it looks like you're losing in the end you'll be rewarded uh and in the inter term it may look like you're losing but in the end you'll be rewarded the guy that uh you know like I mentioned an example yesterday that uh I learned a lot of M from of uh how when you see bodybuilders uh that were like uh walking tanks during their uh peak of their life it look like they're always going to be winning they're always going to look good they're always going to uh look healthy and so on but if you see them several years after their career is over uh many of them die many of them look very sickly many of them do get sick become paralyzed and start losing their mind become depressed and so on so the works that way where he makes the wicked people look like the bodybuilder is looking in the competition he makes them look like that but what Hashem is trying to teach us is that remember that bodybuilder that athlete that celebrity that Hollywood person it's only temporary it's only temporary why CU if they are wicked they're going to get punished they're going to get punished in this world and the next it just looks like they're winning it's an illusion but it looks like they're winning now you may look like you're not winning because you're just sitting there you know just you know putting the shoe together and you're a little you know blue collar job and and learning some K and doing some it looks like you are not winning don't worry hasem says you'll win you'll win you'll win in a big way one of the things that I could tell you is a fantastic example is that an average person today thinks that they need to make a lot more money than they need uh in order to survive you know so many times people don't have kids uh or as many kids as they could have because they think they don't have enough money now Shalom he never you know went to work at some uh you know at stores and malls and businesses and so on he was dedicated his life to the tah you know he was a also but the point is he didn't Focus his life on business now if you knew if you knew about his life and you say listen this guy he shouldn't he shouldn't have more than one or two kids cuz you wouldn't be able to afford them by the time he passed away by time left this world over 100 years old he had over a thousand a thousand grandkids a thousand grandkids great grandkids great grandkids great grandkids great grandkids he was actually invited to the breit of his grandson's grandson of his grandson's grandson he was invited to the just imagine now you would think a thousand people you need to be billionaire billionaire to afford this thing no you need to believe inm believe inm you have the kids we need to have kids you have the house we need the whatever you need is going to provide you and that's it you trust hm 100% hasm provides provides you can say no but he didn't pay for all of them what do you mean he didn't pay for all of them you think that Torah that he learned didn't Finance everything didn't give life to all of his children all of his daughters and sons and you don't think he did of course he did so that's the thing a person has in's promise of of of reward to the righteous and punishment for the wicked they're going to succeed in life when they don't have they're already partly if not completely hellenized judges for as we learned from you well for me I guess uh but how does he determine the person's income relative to the local average income because $20,000 a year in Cambodia but not in Miami or does he base it on purchasing power or fixed standard like gold where is opens his hands with no limitations and he feeds every single one of his Creations he gives the ant as much food as it needs he gives the lion as much food as it needs he gives the human being much food it needs and needless to say he gives the Jew as much food as he needs now sometimes gives a person even more than he needs for different reasons sometimes it's because he sees that it's a this person is a good partner so also says that decides what a person is going to get on until meaning the year in advance is already decided how much a person is going to get but what's not included what's not included in that decision is the money that he's going to get for the use of MIT why that's determined by the person himself because hasem pays for that full full full price for that meaning AEM could decide for a person to make let's say $100,000 for the year regardless of whether he lives in Cambodia or lives somewhere else obviously he's going to it's an amount that is substantial regardless of where you live obviously it's more in one place than the other but let's just call it he gives them enough money to be mid uh middle size income type of place uh types of living okay so he's not Filthy Rich he's not poor he's somewhere in the middle so let's just call that $100,000 now hasem decides to give that $100,000 but that $100,000 does not include MIT money meaning whatever money that person he or she decides to spend On's mitem says that money I'm going to pay you back and sometimes multiple fault it's not considered part of that income so you made $100,000 you gave $10,000 in m in a tithe or you gave aish of 20% you gave $220,000 Hashem says okay you trusted me by giving my every time you got a check you gave 10% every got a check you gave 20% right for the sake of t for the sake of so you gave that 10% what the reward is twofold number one it's a it's a reward that I said if you give you get protection if you give the vill says you'll get you'll become rich in your life so that's one reward but that reward doesn't have a Time doesn't have a clock it could be next year it could be 5 years from now it could be whatever it is but in your lifetime you'll become rich or your money will be protected right that's for the M that's one reward another reward that hasm gives a person is that during that year he says I'm going to pay you full price for that meaning you made $100,000 hasm gave you $100,000 you gave $10,000 hasem gives you back the $10,000 how does it give you that that money back in many many different ways in many different ways sometimes it gives it to you from a place you never thought he's going to you going to have to get it sometimes he takes away a certain expense from you so in essence you end up keeping more of your money than you would have kept otherwise the point being is whatever you have left whatever you have in essence whatever you enjoyed whatever you have left as your net income is the money that hasem gave you that is an Essence includes that mitv money because if let's say you made $100,000 and you're used to let's say having a $50,000 in expenses so in essence at the end of the year you're supposed to have $50,000 left I'm not considering taxes at this point so if let's say you made 50 $100,000 you have $50,000 in expenses that means you should have $50,000 left now if you now decided okay you know what mathematically I'm supposed to have I'm going to spend 50,000 out of my 100,000 right that's what I spend usually but this year I'm going to give M I'm going to give 10% for KY okay I'm going to go to b.org or the app I'm going to donate $10,000 right you do big mitvah now says now the money that you're going to keep is going to include that $10,000 meaning at this point you're supposed to technically keep less right because mathematically if you spend uh yet $50,000 of expenses you're supposed to have $50,000 left now since you're giving m in essence now your expenses increase to 60,000 which means that your income should be 40 makes it work where you actually end up keeping 50,000 how I don't know I do it for years already and somehow it all works in fact the money keeps going higher I don't know how it works it just works it's not something that works logically it's not something that works mathematically it just works now this is also part of the reason why I don't uh spend much time looking at my bank accounts or anything like that I usually look at my account once a month once a month which is the only time I look at it is when I have to give my M every month I give it on one day that's the only time that I know what I what came in and uh and uh what what I need to give I don't actually don't even calculate what came out I just look at what came in how much do I have to give I give 20% and I I write the check and that's it why because that's all that matters and now how do I know it's working because somehow I see that uh you know when I went to Canada when I went to Canada one of the uh uh young kids that uh came to the lecture he says listen you know I love your stuff and you're good but you know one of these says yeah this your own Ruben he's only doing it for money he said he makes a lot of money and he says I told him you're not even charging so I don't know what he's talking about but how could I defend it like hold on here you go right in front of those people there was I think it was before after the lecture I'm not really sure I told me hold on a second I open my phone I told me let me show you something what you going to show me I'm going show my bank account I'm show my bank account so you can tell your friend you can take a picture of it if you want so show I open my account on my phone and say here you go see here in the account there is a uh $1,700 out of $1,700 like ,600 or ,700 of it came that day meaning this morning I had zero like the day I went I came to Canada I had zero I no money whatsoever in my account but that money came up obviously $1,700 is not a lot of money but but the point being is tell your friend that if I was doing it for money I think I would have a little bit more than that money I think I would have a little bit more now why am I telling you the story number one that there is constant tests meaning that at some point I have to see a zero balance I had to see a zero balance now is is the balance still zero no it's not it's grown how it works it works you dedicate yourself to hem you give M you give you do all different types of things that hm says to do and the money works and different times different people would send money or give money or different things for me personally cuz I don't take a salary from the organization so it literally I depend on a miracle from Hashem every single month and it works now it doesn't mean it's not hard doesn't mean that it wasn't big test different times uh but the reality is that you see it works but it's not one of those things that works in a way where you could make logic of it where oh yeah I know that it's going to come in because I have this contract and I have this deal have that no when a person trusts in hem he simply shows hem that he trusts based on how he acts and Hashem says you trusted me I'm going to give you everything you need and if you continuously show me trust I'm going to give you even more than what you need why because I see that not only trust me by giving but you also give to the right places and you're investing into toah by your own time your own efforts and even your own resources hasem starts giving you even more than you need but that means that at times you're going to have test that he has to see whether you really whether you really love him or you're just trying to see if you can make a quick buck with AEM by saying oh yeah let me give like $20,000 to the rabbi and uh maybe hashem's going to give me 200,000 next month it doesn't work that way Hashem has his own timing Hashem has his own places where he does test but I promise you I've seen with my own eyes that when you actually uh uh trust in hasem he sends you money in a million and a half different ways in ways that you would have never even imagined never even imagine I have one guy that I know that uh before Corona virus he was uh barely making a living I don't know maybe making 50 60 70,000 a year 100,000 a year was okay was you know was fine wasn't like uh but he lives in a very expensive place so it's uh pretty much there was never any money left so you would think like everybody else almost everybody lost money as a result of this Corona virus opposite Hashem decided to reward this guy Millions of dollars in the last year he doesn't even know what to do with himself millions of dollars he was rewarded he did a lot of good things in his life and so on but hasm decided to reward him in a huge way another guy that I know before Corona was he told me himself he was making between five and $10 million a year printing money spending it obnoxiously but he knew he was making it in over and over again Corona happened his business went to zero z z literally why decided to take from him and give to him even though they're not related even though they're not same businesses but Ence the that was giving one guy he gave it to another guy why one guy was investing in t with the little that he had the other guy was investing into sports into to to car into all types of things says this is a bad investment so he switched switch simple this happens all the time but that means that both had their share of tests some they passed some they fail andm makes things work that way so when it comes to giving a person surely the the the all knowing the the one that knows what's hidden the one that knows what's in our mind also knows not only what we need but also the per capita ratios and the society ratios and our liking ratios and our desire ratios and our wies ratios and our kids ratios surely knows all of those things and a will give you based on your faith in him based on your faith in him in practice if you use the money that he uh that he gives you for the sake of his different ways use the money not just to give him staka I'm not just talking about staka let say that's one thing but also the money that you have you buy kosher food that's worth it for hm to give you more money you buy your kids more books for for learning to that's worth it for hm to to to you use that money to buy your wife uh kosher clothes for modesty it's worth ver to give you more money but if you use the money that give you to gamble to to to eat non kosher to do things that are illegal and things of that nature it's not worth it for to give you blessings so the way you see that is not necessarily with the income but rather with the the what people actually end up enjoying out of their money where many times you I see certain people they make a lot of money make a huge income their W2 or their 1099 you know their statement of you know what they show the IRS shows a big number like I used to have a huge number on the on the statement but what they actually end up enjoying out of it is literally a fraction of a fraction a lot of money goes to medical bills or taxes or lawsuits or all types of problems so the way you know you have blessing in your money is not necessarily based on income but simply based on your life if you live a life where you're not missing anything you have everything you need it's already a blessed life but I don't mean you're not missing anything where you're eating uh you know peanut butter and jelly jelly once a day not say that's your food for the week no meaning you're eating normally you're drinking normally you live in a nice house normally you have a nice car normally like you have the things that you would want you're not missing for anything that's blessing that's that's shef that's shefa you don't need to necessarily live in a you know 30 story uh house with uh 87 garages to be blessed she is simply wanting for nothing you have a bunch a bunch more than you need perhaps even that's that's she that sometimes is not necessarily Millions sometimes it is depending on the person but if a person is using his money the right way Hashem will give him such a life where they'll want for nothing whatever they want because it tends to be good stuff he'll give it to them so this is the real blessing and it's a uh and that blessing comes in a uh you know in in different amounts per the place that the person is living in if he lives in Cambodia he'll give him a life that's Cambodian type of wanting for nothing type of living if he lives in the United States depending on where he lives if he lives in La that means he probably has to make about a half a million dollars a year to live running for nothing uh if he lives in New York probably almost that as well3 $400,000 if he lives I don't know in a in Utah probably need $50,000 he's already rich it all depends depends where he lives but hem is going to give
