Making Torah Your Business - MUSSAR Pirkei Avot (11)

[Music] n always good to be here in Miami it's a uh amazing to see the group continuing to grow bring more people bring more people with the and this series this M series is really getting a lot of good feedback a lot of people are saying that this is the stuff they've been looking to hear they heard the par they heard different things but they're always looking for things to apply in their life you know what could I use from the Torah from the stories of abah andov in my business what can I use from mosenu in my marriage what can I use fromon or DAV with raising my kids what can I do so it's each one of the sages is taken the wisdom that they got all the way from Mount saai and is minimizing it into a simple sentence into a simple oneliner or two liner and as we've seen from the series analyzing even one of these sentences we could analyze it for 6 years not 6 hours or 2 hours but six years and still learn more it's unbelievable how much wisdom they were able to fit in such few words so we have a lot of uh things a lot of things that we're learning together before I forget let's do the and also the uh anyone that wants to watch it online later on go to Torah anytime.com or our website.org uh also this sh will be to elmat your U your mother's name you said yeah yeah is oh Elish Flores and also to meloto I'm of Balu ruven Joseph Ben Rifka Sarah batara Gladis Nunes edin Guerero Isabel Perez Josephina Matos Marcela matut Alondra matut Anna chedo guo Solano Jose Aila Bill dman herbf Raquel Sandler lardis Garcia lardis rensi Yoshua Mikel Ben hadasa David Ben SAR ruven Pablos and Guero one doesn't not on the list next week they all have and all of whoever we've mentioned we didn't mention all of them have the beauty of Tora is that the Torah is the cure for the nefes and sometimes if you do enough nees enough enough of the U I'm sorry enough neish you have the Goof also sometimes you learn enough Tora that hasem rewards you with having also also of the body also this is my own personal story was sick for seven years a lot of suffering a lot of surgeries a lot of craziness but you learn enough to says okay you know what it's not really worth it for me to keep you sick you could use this body that I gave you to go publicize to to go publicize the word of hem to go publicize what we need to do okay so we'll make you healthy and that's what happens to is the cure for everything you have doubts in life to is the cure you have schite problems to is the cure you have a any type ofuna issues toah is the cure you have a business problems Torah is the cure you have children issues Torah is the cure for everything it actually even says in if you have a headache learn Torah headache not don't take Advil they don't prescribe Advil say you have a headache go learn to so it's amazing that you could literally solve any problem you want with the Torah obviously this is the uh the simple it's uh in order to get to a point where the Torah could literally cure a headache or it could literally solve a schlom bite problem or it could solve any type of issue you can't just learn one verse you know for half hour and that's it okay it solves all your problems obviously you have to dig deep into it and hm has to give you the the help from Heaven to solve the problem in reality it's AEM solving the problem but the Torah is the key the Torah is the key now as we learned in last night sh and also the last couple of years that we've been learning together the Torah is not a history book Torah is not just an instruction said that's nice to hear it's like a Harry Potter book SL self-help you could listen to it if you want you don't really have to sometimes yes sometimes no as Jews we're obligated to listen to the Torah and comply with everything it says same thing with non-jews non-jews also have to comply with the Torah and everything that it says obviously they have slightly different rules they have less rules than the Jews do they have the seven noahide laws and everything that's common sense meaning it's not just seven laws they have all the seven laws which we know from no we also have all the laws that are common sense so for example respecting your parents respecting your parents is not one of the seven noahide laws but it's a law that is obvious that anyone with a brain would know you have to follow follow it whether you're Jew or Gentile doesn't make a difference you have to respect your parents not being angry is not something that's part of the seven noahide laws but it's obviously something that we need to do developing your character being a better person and so on so all the things that are common sense both Jews and Gentiles must follow now and the reason why it's important to say must follow and now it's good to follow because when you say it's good to follow it it makes it sound like it's a um it's just you know it's like a hobby it's okay if you do it's okay if you don't some people like baseball some people like football it's nice but that's not what Hashem said Hashem never said it's nice if you're going to follow my laws it's nice if you listen to me he didn't say it's nice he said you must listen to me these are the laws there's no option kind of option meaning that this is the law you must follow it anyone who does doesn't follow it there's a punishment and that's why the 13 principles of Faith one of the most these are the 13 things that the rambam says whoever doesn't believe in these 13 principles of faith is not considered Jewish they could have the hat and the beard and everything else but if they don't believe in these 13 principles of Faith they're excluding themselves out of the nation one of those 13 principles of faith is believing in reward and Punishment if you do good you get rewarded not necessarily always in this life sometimes in this life you get part of the reward but the real reward is in the next life and punishment is sometimes a lot in this world but the real punishment is in the next World also so they ask the sages okay wait a minute you have plenty of people that are righteous that are going to be that are praying that are giving that are doing all these wonderful things but if you espe people that are people learn t for for a living go to Jerusalem have all these all they do is learn T nothing else they don't have any business they don't have anything else all they wake up in the morning they go learn T in the afternoon they learn to at night they learn to when they come home after they help the wife handle the kids and everything else what do they do no TV no internet no hanging out with the guys over a couple of beers what do they do they learn more Tora that's that's it but if if you look at their life some cases not all of them but in many many cases in our eyes especially Living in America where everything is lavish and convenience is a is a uh something we we take for granted their life is miserable no money they're struggling on a daily basis I hear some of these stories from some of these that I know connected to you want to cry M you want to cry just two days ago this my who's his his wisdom is beyond anything I could explain he tells me this other guy is a go so when someone that's a genius call somebody else a genius you know the other guy's a big deal he says to me I saw he couldn't come to the cola today because he's having a lot of issues because the wife found out that um he's been hiding a 50,000 shekele debt that they have because she just figured you know they're married for only a few years and maybe he had some money and she thought oh he's going to K cuz they only make 1,500 shekels 2,000 shekels a month which is 500 bucks a month nothing even as a single person you can't live with $500 a month doesn't matter where can't live like that in Israel 500 shek $500 a month wife couple of kids the wife is not working she finds out that in reality been living off of debt all of a sudden the landlord wants to kick them out the bank is calling him like he just robbed the bank cuz they want the loan back and all of a sudden his whole world is collapsing and the wife is losing her mind and he they can't afford anything and he my my R says I saw his daughter walking around the street with ripped clothes cuz they don't have money to pay for her clothes for little girl with clothes she's ripped she's ripped in her clothes this is a genius in Tora the world revolves and is moving because of people like him because of people like him the world still exist in the book of Jeremiah Hashem told us if it's not for my Covenant meaning for learning of Torah if it's not for that for a moment there's somebody out there is not learning T eliminate the world instantly no Second Chances no way listen guys you should start learning t no warnings if for a moment someone is not learning T no more world so this person is learning toah Non-Stop he has a little girl doesn't have clothes she has rips in her clothes they can't afford clothes this is every week I hear this one other guy he he borrowed he borrowed ingredients to make soup so you can return it another guy said to the other guy listen you made soup you had chicken soup give me the bones so at least my kids have flavor bones of chicken not bad this is T this is real this is peopleim M you want to cry when you hear this sometimes I do so now you ask yourself how could how you explain this this is the and this is the this is the reward they get how do you explain this so first and foremost we have to understand we don't know the we don't know the accounting of sh just because we learn a little doesn't know it doesn't mean that we can run the world if we understood him we would be him that's what the rambam said if he understood God he would be God so first and foremost we have to understand we don't understand we don't know the accounting of sham number two everybody gets a test at their own level we barely are able to have uh you know meet certain guidelines to them it's not even a test some people just started doing cha they call me or email me or text me 50 times before Shabbat no what happened what Shabbat coming what's what's the matter why are you testing me or calling me or whatever 50 times I don't know if I can keep the Shabbat what just sleep the whole Shabbat what's such a big deal I don't know I don't know if I could stop touching my phone throw the phone in the garbage put it in a pool I don't know put it in a drawer lock it put it in a safe don't don't don't have the combination give it to somebody else you can't not touch your phone for 25 hours that's his test me scan the guy can't can't he cannot touch his phone I have another guy me scan every other day I'm sorry I know I watch your wasting Seed video so many times but I'm still failing still failing it's an addiction according to the it says that the addiction of wasting seed is more than anything else in this world once someone gets addicted to wasting seed it's more addictive than crack cocaine that's how bad and I'm not talking about somebody B CH doesn't know anything I'm talking about in America people in America go to go to Yesa kids calling me telling me listen listen I never knew it was that bad but now that I know it's that bad I'm trying to stop I can't stop I can't stop I can't I stop for a week two weeks three weeks I fall I said okay try again try again try again they're getting out of it but it's hard it's hard test for them but this he doesn't have these tests you think he's wasting you think he has problems with problems do his in the morning wake up on time no have these tests his test is like a different world for us we can't even see his level it's like mosu for us it's not we don't know what this is a test little girl doesn't have clothes we can't even imagine something like that in America the poor people eat better than some rich people in other countries you're talking about South America some people in South America I know from some people that watch the sh they tell me what they see he's like listen some people are rich some people are very poor yeah some people got plenty and here in America even the poor person is eating better than some of the rich people they have value meals for $1 in America $1 you get yourself a whole uh five course meal for McDonald's so different tests so that's the second that's another thing that we have to understand different levels different tests and most importantly we have to understand that Hashem doesn't have to give accounting to anyone doesn't have to explain himself to anyone that's why he's hasem when we start saying he's not fair he's not this he's not that it's 100% it's 100% heresy the fact that he even has enough Mercy on us to say those words shows how merciful he really is if I was got to destroy the world every day that's why I tell my R all the time I see all the bad things in the world I see rabbis talking bad about other rabbis I see people going against chuva I see people going against the Torah public doing all these different types of horrible things if I was got to destroy the world like no every day create it and Destroy just just just to do it just that's how bad certain things are in the world but Hashem is merciful so we can't say oh why did he do this why did he do this so now you ask the next question why is it that some people do get rewarded then so we have to understand kazal explains to us and we learned this a few weeks ago maybe about a month ago in one of the sh here I think it was the rambam explains that the reason why Hashem gives somebody reward let's say for example somebody works really hard starts learning toah a few hours a day all of a sudden he starts seeing his business starts to work out all of a sudden he sees a new contract 70 $80,000 came in more money than he can imagine next week after that a half a million dollars next week after that all of a sudden he's a millionaire few months what he do learn some two hours every day what do he do all the became a millionaire has given him so much reward so rambam explains he says Hashem saw that that person when he had a little bit of money he was giving oh you're making a mitvah my son is making a Mitzvah so let me give you more money so you make more MIT I'm going to help your Mitzvah you want to make Mitzvah so I'll give you more tools to make more mitv he didn't give you the money because that money is the reward he gave you the money so you can make more mitvah more that's the point of the money he didn't heal you so you could tell everybody oh look I'm not sick anymore to your friends that are around you that saw you when you're sick he made you healthy so you could tell the whole world look what hashm did for me not just your friends your friends are or know or not going to know it doesn't make a difference but the rest of the world he didn't give you the reward because that's the reward for the chuva he's giving you the reward so you can sanctify his name so you can do K so you can he can he's trying to help you make more mitv that's the point of because the real reward it's so big that kazal explains to us that the reward for the smallest Mitzvah pick any Mitzvah you want we don't really know which one's the biggest which one's the smallest we know things based on sin we know that violating Shabbat is the worst sin in Judaism we know that also is up there and also wasting seed on purpose those are the three biggest sins in Judaism are those three but as far as level of reward what's the B what's the best what's the worst we don't know the details tells us don't measure the big ones of the small ones because we don't know the accountings of but we do know that the reward for the smallest Mitzvah whatever the smallest Mitzvah is whichever one it is the smallest Mitzvah you can think of the reward for it is is bigger than all of the wealth and all of the good that everyone has ever had combined in this world for the smallest Mitzvah so what hasm giving you a couple of million dollars a couple of houses a couple of kids a wife whatever all these things you think that's enough of the reward for one of these mitvah no so the money that he's giving you the P the all those things that's just to help you make more mitv when we make more mitv we're giving AEM an incentive to give us more we're making more sins we're giving AEM an incentive to take it back so now as we see from all of these aim all of these different difficulties that they all deal with we have to ask ourselves what are we doing for hem what are we doing for okay for us okay we learned TOS for us it's not for hasm already has the T he doesn't need your T it's for you it's it's forem also it's for you it's not hm has all the money in the worldi says minus the um silver minus the gold he has all the money in the world he doesn't need your money the uh getting married is for you having kids for you everything's for you what are you doing for hem there's only a couple of things we can do for hasem that in essence is he's going to do anyway way but we could partner up with him if you will one is helping helping people that are learning to offer a living helping these people being the messenger being the messenger of hasem and saying listen listen here's $100 I don't have much here a $100 buy your daughter some clothes here's uh $50 here has food for uh you know for the next couple of days without them asking you and having these big uh campaigns on the internet most of them don't even have computers you connect you know if someone really wants to do they find who's who's connected to a you connect to a all of these people most of them are poor people like to help poor people but they don't like to help toah the good news here is most people learned to poor in today's world so that's one way you publicize a to why because they're the reason why we exist second thing is add more Jews to the nation add more Jews to the nation there's two ways there's two ways of doing it one is the Jews Among Us that don't have a clue of what being Jewish is we have millions of them we have 80% of the nation still thinks it's okay to drive on Shabbat no for the I'm driving to sh where is the right where does it say in the Torah that you're allowed to drive to shabat where does it say that doesn't say that it says you're not the light of Fire according to one of my students who's an engineer sadik that he is he did a report he knows cars says listen you always mention how to drive on Shabbat it's a fire it's a fire so I did an analysis how much fire is in a car and he says every time you drive a car in Shabbat in a matter of moments let's say you you drive the car 60 M an hour which he calculated a certain amount of RPM that that requires he said says it's no less it's never going to be less than 6,000 fires not one fire you didn't drive the car one time it's one fire you got to the sh that's it one fire one violation but I go to the B cancels it out people think things cancel out I made mitvah because I went to sh I drove to sh it's so it cancels out I'm even at least I have my friends and I can eat some chin for free doesn't work like that why he drove to Sho 15 minutes each moment there was 6,000 fires meaning by the time you arrive to the Sho with the nice bends that the rabbi said you could Park right next to the synagogue what happens you violated chabbat somewhere in a neighborhood of 3 to 400,000 times that's just to go there another 4 500,000 times on the way back or maybe you want to go to the coffee shop just in case going back home you go back home it's another 400,000 times to go in the sh to make this big mitvah you violated Shabbat million times with a million fires and that's not including the radio That's not including the phone just to navigation system Shalom you know we remember you know the uh the direction by heart I don't know directions by heart so we use navigation so you press the phone so you go to be you think you makv no I'm part of they're not going to have a m without me but what we learn here a Jew that violat Shabbat cannot be counted as part of a minan cannot be count as part of a this is a systemic problem for why because most of us don't know this I didn't know this I used to think before I did Chua I said okay listen I remember when I was a kid I went to religious school I remember they told me not to work on Shabbat so when I made some money I said okay I'm not a religious Jew so I'm not but I'm not going to work on Shabbat I never worked on Shabbat a day in my life instead I'll have fun I'll relax what was relaxing to me 10 years ago going a casino playing poker that was relaxing to me to me playing poker and the casino is relaxing I didn't realize that that's also not allowed and it's actually also and I'm adding more sins and on top of that every time you win gambling it's considered stealing cuz the guy that you're winning it from doesn't want to give it to you so in that s you're taking it against his will so now you're not only violating shab with being in a place you're not allowed to be being in a place that's immodest on top of it you're a thief so you're having you're Gathering sins and you have no idea and you're no I'm relaxing I'm relaxing I'm having a good time not a clue not a clue what's happening so we have to tell this so we have to tell this to all the people go to conservative shs not everybody wants to be rash not everybody wants to go against hm some people go to because they want to beim they just listen I'm not at that level of being Orthodox I want to be conservative they think that there's levels in Judaism there's no levels everything we teach is standard Judaism is minimum requirement we don't teach anything above minimum we're not allowed to teach anything above minimum why because at our level in this generation where we are very very very few people can handle anything above the average very few people and those people don't go to sh they teach they run they run the people that can handle they handle you know stringencies the rest of us 99.9% of the nation standard minimum requirement don't drive on Shabbat don't use your phone don't use electricity if you're going to wash dishes make sure that the uh sponge is not a sponge it's one of these a um mesh where the water goes through it and not uh you're not squeezing it so you're not squeezing on Shabbat the water out you need to learn a lot of these so we don't violate Shabbat I used to think that Hey listen I'm going to make food on Shabbat I'm not going to cook on Shabbat but I'm going make sauce I used to make uh tomato sauce so i' grind a tomato this is when I first started keeping shab I didn't know much I'd grind a tomato to make sure that's off to honor Shabbat fresh sauce now realizing that grinding is also not allowed so unless you learn all these things you're not going to know you're violating Shabbat thinking you're keeping it so not everybody's doing it intentionally but not learning and that being the reason that we don't know because we didn't learn turns the unintentional sin into intentional which means that we have to put ourselves in a situation where we learn to we must learn to so you have the ability to help people learn T you have a way to arrange a Shure like this you have a way to bring a rabbi to sh you have a way to bring a rabbi to a synagogue you have a way to give out CDs get people get is to become is again and then last but not least there's plenty of people that are willing to sacrifice their life to become Jewish either because they have you know Heritage of the anusim people that were forced to convert out of Judaism several Generations ago a few hundred years ago even and they found out hey I'm connected to am is and I want to be back so I have to convert or people that just discovered that Christianity is complete nonsense fake Islam is heresy and fake and nonsense and the only real religion the only real Divine truth is the to they want to join it and they want to do everything for it sacrifice their life get divorce change houses change cars change this change everything doesn't matter to them why because they discovered the truth once you discover the truth you can't go back can't go back to oh no no it's okay I'm going to stay this way you can't you can't undo it they're want to give everything for it help them help them any way you can help them bring them to the community show them around bring them for Shabbat sayy listen you're a brand new Jew you're in a process of your conversion let me show you the beauty of Judaism let me introduce you to this to that make them welcome and this brings us to a very big difficulty in our generation because on one end the page four says that at the end of times we're going to have an enormous amount of converts a lot of people are going to want to convert to Judaism but the reality we have today is that most bet most of the are not following the of how to convert people like it used to be like it's written in and the third Al of conversion it says if someone comes to the bed a non-jew comes to the bed he says listen I want to convert I want to be a Jew they say listen but we're persecuted Nation everybody's beating us up killing us on top of that in the past you were able to drive on Shabbat now you drive on Shabbat it's going to be the worst possible death skila which is stoning I don't even want to describe what stoning is people think it's just a few people throwing rocks at somebody oh no it's a much much more vicious death than that it's hard horrible horrible situation on top of that you were able to eat whatever you want now you're not going to be able to eat what you want being a Jew is not it's a big deal it's not like you know you could undo it once you become a Jew there's no turning back a Jew can never convert to a different religion he convert 500 times to Christianity he's still a Jew meaning you'll be punished or rewarded as a Jew but once you become a Jew you can't undo it tell listen you can undo all these things if he says this is if he says yes yes that's the nation the persecuted nation that one that's the one I want to be in according to they convert him on the spot no teaching no uh seminars no listen you need to learn this you need to learn that nothing not even Brit that they do after some cases they say they do it within 30 days some case they they do it right before but nonetheless the point is that they convert him on the spot meaning he starts and finishes his conversion within that time frame there of when the happens with it's right there and then and then they convert them or they do within 30 days either way the point is it happens right there there's no like foure wait we have to come to my shim we have to send 500 emails we have to beg the bed we have to be like one of my other new students from Arizona tells me listen my friend wants to convert and he went to to some Rabbi and the rabbi said listen you want to convert $111,000 to $1,000 I convert you right away and then I told them about you and I showed them uh the uh list there's a list of rabbis that are recognized rabbis meaning not every Rabbi can convert a person you according to technically just three juice any three juice can convert anyone but that's not the way we work anymore why because there's a lot of fake converts unfortunately there's a lot of people that converted for marriage or for money or for different reasons that are not the the the right reason so they and also there's a lot of rabbis that have turned it into a business where they just convert people purely for money like this guy charging 11 $112,000 for converts is another place told me they charge for each person $10,000 and another place $25,000 pretty much you want to con you want to be become millionaire convert people for a year you're a millionaire and that's in the states right it's in the states it's in Israel it's in different places you want to be a millionaire convert people cuz people want to be Jewish and they're willing to do whatever they want listen I'll sell my house to convert that's what people tell me I'll sell my house just to convert what I have a choice I know the truth now I know the truth now why am I say no no I'm not going to I'm not going to live the truth because I need my money I don't care about my money anymore so I tell him listen there's a list list of of rabbis that are accepted that are recognized by the Bine of Israel why is this important because if someone converts with a rabbi that's not on the list and they want to do Aliyah they want to go to Israel want to move to Israel they want to go to a they want to join the army they want to just live there they go over there like hey I'm Jewish like okay let me see your certificate your conversion certificate let me see they compare to the list oh he's not on the list you're not Jewish wow you're not Jewish sorry now some people are not going to check because they say listen I already have money I don't need the government to help me do alah so I don't need their assistance I'm not going I don't need their rabbis to recognize me what do I care if they recognize me don't recognize me I know hasm recognizes me right want to be a hero recognized me that's enough here's the problem okay you for you it's enough but you have kids though right they kids the kids are going to grow up they're not going to live inside the mother's womb forever they're going to one day they're going to go outside they're want to get married the little boy is going to be a big boy one day he wants to get married he has a girlfriend ABA look I went to Yesa I did this I did that I want to get married look this is my girlfriend this is this this is that sh everything is good okay oh sir you are convert okay we have to part of the background check to make sure that our daughter is going to marry a Jew we want to see your certificate of your conversion they look at the certificate like oh it's not on a list you're not Jewish our daughter is going with a non-jew Yesa boy is not Jewish that's what we going to tell you shake it make a whole embarrassment of it and what happens your son's going to hate you forever not just in this world forever after it also he's going to hate you for the embarrassment you caused them why because you want to be a hero you don't want you want to just pick your own this is what people need to understand listen there's a system I know it sucks I know it's annoying I know it's a heartache I know it's a headache but it's a system and that's what we have to work with we work with what we have now there's enough rabbis that don't charge an arm and aik for conversion there's enough rabbis that charge a decent amount of money where they can make a living but at the same token not bankrupt everyone there's a decent amount of rabbis that are righteous people that're going to help you convert for the right reasons but you have to understand in order for you to truly convert it's all about it's all about help from Hashem if you're planning on being a fake Jew Hashem is going to S you to the fake Rabbi you're a good match he's fake you're fake perfect get married maybe play poker together on Shabbat I'm not coming anymore I keep sh but if you're planning to be a righteous Jew yes he may take you to on a big test maybe even as big of a test as this a that has a girl with ripped clothes but eventually you're going to get to the promised land eventually you're going to call yourself I'm one of the chosen is there anything better in this world or not arm isra was slaves for 210 years they were in Egypt 86 years of hard slavery you want to join the chosen people just because you have a couple of thousand to pay a rabbi you think it's going to be that easy because you like Shabbat you want to take vacation once a week obviously it's going to take some heartache obviously it's going to take some headache obviously it's going to be difficult but then you call yourself part of the chosen people so yes there are issues there are problems and unfortunately a lot of the problems are created by our own where there's so much politics in it that sometimes it creates where the rabbis that are supposed to be righteous are more wicked than the rabbis that we know are wicked you see you see rabbis that convert people in you know one person sadik I have give you a real story of one guy one guy going to conversion for 10 years 10 years already 10 years ago he was probably more righteous than most people he probably knew more Tora 10 years ago than most people 10 years he's going to conversion his children a couple of his children that were born throughout the process they don't know they're not Jewish the wife works in a mik but they won't let her dip in 10 years they're going through conversion and even at the end of the 10 years conversion and everything else it's happening as we speak they're still giving them problems yes you can do it but you have to leave the house you have to leave your wife and kids for 3 months why let him get married the same day that's it why you getting just driving the guy crazy you know he's married it's not a rumor it's not a uh people are making things more difficult than need to be if you really cared about Al you would have converted him N9 years ago now all of a sudden you start caring I have another guy this also is not this is before they come to me they go to this hell another guy when he found out the truth he left Christianity then he realized okay I have to learn what Hashem said where is hasem where did hasm write what book did hasm write Tor he starts learning Tor he gets to ABR ainu he finds out oh abah ainu had Brit Mila I didn't have Brit Mila so he goes to the doctor and he says I want to have doctor says this is not covered by your insurance it's going to cost $115,000 says I had $15 but that's what hasm wants he goes home he gives himself Brit he goes home he gives himself Brit show me one Jew Natural Born Jew that's going to give himself Brit me thinking about it I'm already in pain found out the truth gave himself know him he goes to the bed he goes to the bed like oh listen he learns he goes he learns to 2 24 hours a day he knows he knows he knows an immense amount of T goes to the you have to continue coming to classes let's see maybe another year or two what year or two convert the on the spot what what year or two he already knows more to than the entire the entire what year or two but then another woman who doesn't know anything nothing she knows absolutely nothing the day before her conversion she first for the first time in her life she found out what there's something called M on Shabbat you know you Cann let to touch a phone even not only not let to turn on a phone not to touch a phone on on Shabbat why because if you touch a phone it's more likely that you'll turn it on and violate Shabbat you're not allow to touch a pen not because you're really not to touch a pen because if you touch the pen maybe you'll pick it up and write so a certain thing called M it's laws of Shabbat which is basic level Judaism it's like in the beginning we learn about the of Shabbat this what we learn modesty non-existent to her she never even heard that modesty is a requirement in Judaism nothing she knows nothing she go to the because she knows somebody from the they convert her on a spot explain that to me if that's not what is if that's not what is BET like that I wouldn't go to if you pay me I wouldn't even go inside the place so yes I know that all this stuff happens I know it's and it's problems and it's this and it's that but that's what it is at the end of time there going to be a lot of converts but at the same time there's also at the end of page 4 9 it says people going to hate the truth which means we're going to have to go find it cuz that's what we need the truth is going to be hated they're going to go against rabbis that tell you the truth they're going to go against rabbis that like RI every other day there's a different rash journalist or Rabbi that talks about him in a negative way every day the guy made more people do chuva than anybody else in our generation they talk bad about him what are you talking bad about him for you made people do CH you made even one person do do cha that you talking bad about him one person he makes hundreds of people do cha every week how do I know I know cuz I'm in it I help him he helps me I see his emails he sees mine I see people like calls phone calls text message I see it it's not like I heard it from somebody who told somebody I'm in it I'm in the business with him I see his emails I see messages I see all the things cuz we help each other different things Facebook all these different things to publicize toah hundreds and hundreds of people doing chva every week every week these rabbis that are going against us one person in their life didn't make du chuv one person didn't make du Chua one but what Satan Satan Satan is goes against kiru why because we're stealing his employees so so the same Satan is also going to go and influence people that are supposed to be righteous to be Wicked he's going to make the conversion more difficult he's going to make the chuva more difficult he's going to make the you know the good things look like they're bad he's going to make the sweet taste like it's bitter in the beginning everything is the opposite but we have to fight it we have to fight it how do we fight it and this is where we get to our Mish which is 15 Shay you know we had Shay and bet last couple of weeks last couple as we learn about what he who was the N the president or the prince said and shamai was his they' learn and they'd also debate about everything so now we hear what shamai says sh was the the head of theed sh Shay says make your Torah study a fixed practice say little and do much and greet everyone with a pleasant countenance okay so here we see the one liner here is a lot of information first of all who is Shai Shay aside from being one of the every page in there's different debates so on you see it's always this before first century right H before first century right right like so first of all we see okay shamai is a giant giant in Torah they say that shamai and he used to get ready for Shabbat already on Sunday already on Sunday both of them in different ways were getting ready for Shabbat that's coming up and every day they would buy something and get ready on Sunday they get something on Monday they get something else on the whole week they're getting ready just for Shabbat the whole week Revol just waiting for shabat not like a Shabbat comes oh Shabbat now an hour before Shabbat we realize that Shabbat and then we run huh and then we run then we catch up oh I have to clean I have to cook yeah Shabbat comes in 5 it's 420 420 yeah 40 minutes buddy oh okay I'll leave work they're already getting ready on Sunday that's number one shamai also his name was shamai because that's actually what was his job his job was being a shamai what's a shamai a shamai is similar to a mixed of a consultant a developer and an adjuster all at once meaning that if they wanted to build a building they' ask they H Shai to analyze what would it take how much cement it needs how much sand how much water how much how many employees he would analyze all of this and give them an analysis of what uh what it would take and also you would measure things so shamai this has a full-time job he's working very hard but he's also at the same time only in recent Generations did it get to a point where if you want to be a t you learn to all day and you don't work cuz we're at such a low level that we can't you can't be a and have a full-time job at the same time very very few could actually handle one of them let alone both so it's not the end of the world but in the old Generations the had full-time jobs businesses and everything the which we learned he wrote several historic books about M he used to be a Diamond Cutter so while he was practicing cabala and teaching cabala and teaching all these mystical amazing things he also was a Diamond Cutter and many of the sages we learned that they all had very serious professions so this that is also successful businessman is telling you first thing say listen you have a few things to I have a lot of Tor I could tell you this is the first thing I want you to learn from me make your Torah study a fixed practice meaning he goes I know you work I work too but if you want to have any shot of going to ganeden you want have any shot of connecting to Hashem the real Hem theem of the Tor not the elect of hem that only gives you stuff people treat hashm like he Santa Claus he just wants him to give us stuff give me give me give me give me we don't want to give hm anything we don't want to pray we don't want to learn we don't want to do we don't want to do anything we just want hm to give us we get sick we remember hem we lose money remember Hashem we have problems we remember hem but when it's the rest of the year when everything is good oh hasem you're there oh I didn't even know I didn't notice you he says I work too you want to have any chance of connecting to this real hem the of the Tor you must make the Torah a fixed practice in your life now what does it mean k k like a fixed practice or a fixture in your life means several things would it be a way of life of course it's a way of life but there's different parts of how you implement this way of life it's go beyond that right it goes beyond it so oh so first and foremost he tells you listen if you're working if you're if your person not works you're a businessman like most people they work they work for this company that company their own company whatever he says that your work schedule and your work in general can never be the primary focus of your life meaning that your work schedule needs to accommodate your Torah schedule not the opposite we think of a mindset I'm going to make an hour a day of to so I could do it in the morning before work I'll do a half hour and a half hour night so I have an hour of to after work half hour before work half hour after work an hour before work an hour after work we think that we think of work as the central part of our life business central part of our life shmay is telling you here you're looking at it completely the wrong way you didn't come to the world to work my friend you didn't come to the world to be a business man please you didn't come to the world to be a businessman you came to the world to fulfill the Torah so you have to start looking at things in a way where your work thank [Music] you so you didn't come to the world to work you came to the world to fulfill the Torah which means that your job should cater to your real focus in life which is T yes of course we all need to work we all need to make a living but if you have the type of job that's like the job I used to have running a Wall Street firm it's a very consuming business it's not 9 to5 especially when you work for yourself you have your own company it's 24 hours a day why because you have to know what's going on during the market hours you have to know what's going on after market hours to prepare for the next day and now with today's technology pretty much the markets open 24 hours a day CU either the domestic Market foreign markets foreign government US Government everything there 24 hours a day you can find out new news and you have to digest all of this news and break it down and figure it out what's going to happen tomorrow and what's going to happen next week and what's going to everybody becomes a propit in the business everybody's a prophit everybody things in on and then every everyone's wrong at the end no one knows what really what's going on everyone's a prophet but everyone realiz they're all false prophets but we all get paid for it but it's a consuming business why because even if you want to relax okay you know what I'm only going to work 9: to5 I'm going to go right half hour before the Market opens I'm going to leave an hour after the market closes that's it it's a good job right what happened when the times are good you're going to try to take advantage of it you're going to work that extra hour or 2 hours or 3 hours to get that extra client or two so you can take that extra vacation but let's say you don't times are bad one day at least once every 10 years there's a breakdown in the market everything fails everything collapses everyone loses except the giant conglomerates that somehow always managed to be top now you want to take a break you want to go home at 5:00 but all of your hysterical clients they're calling at 12:00 at night at 8:00 at night at 1:00 in the morning they don't care about your free time my portfolio is collapsing my friend what can you do they care less about your little kids they care less about your free time your Torah your this your that why cuz you have control of their money should we sell should we buy should we this should we that they cry they yell they scream they this they that you become now instead of a prophet what do you become psychiatrist but this time you don't get paid people ask me how do you know so much about schom and different things and managing people's this I'm like I was a psychiatrist for 16 years you're in an investment business you have to be a psychiatrist too so now it's a consuming job if you have one of those jobs you have to you have to think twice is it really worth it if you really want to fulfill the will of hasem usually not and saying that you're going to figure it out good luck maybe you can some people have figured it out but most people can't there are easier jobs not you don't necessarily need to be a millionaire or you don't necessarily need to think that that's the only way to be a millionaire there are millionaires in every job even simple ones there are people that that make minimum wage in a CED business and there are people that are billionaires in a CED business there are people that make minimum wage working for a restaurant and there are people that are billionaires running restaurants there's a millionaire and a billionaire in every business and there's a poor guy earning minimum wage or less in every business meaning that AEM decides on what you're going to get it doesn't matter what job you have doesn't matter if you're an engineer if you're a stock broker if you're an insurance salesman if you're this you're that if has wants you to be rich it has nothing to do with your profession according to the both of them saym decides what you're going to get on regardless of how many hours you work whether you work 40 hours a week 100 hours a week a million hours doesn't make a difference meaning that if you have an ounce of amuna in the AEM that we're talking about the real Hashem you're never going to work overtime once in your life I wish I would have known this you know how much overtime I worked in my life is a very very hard to put this into practice but it's possible Shai is telling you the only way to do it is by making the Torah a permanent fixture in your life why if the Torah is something that's a permanent fixture in your life then you're obviously going to comply with what it says if you're reading it in order to apply it then you're going to do the right thing if you're reading it like it's a history book you might as well read the history book already might as well read Harry Potter but if you're can to apply it then they're going to go up to Sham the first question they ask you when someone goes to shamim after 120 or after they get to fulfill their chuva did you conduct your business Faithfully meaning that you have when you had when you dealing with business that's the first question so they ask wait a minute if they're going to ask you if you had emuna in your business doesn't that mean that business comes first more than to says no no contradiction why if you conducted your business witha if you conducted it with fa Faithfully that means that you had to have Torah in your life there's no way that you could have in your business without Tor because conducting your business Faithfully means you never worked overtime because you knew that Hashem is really doing it not you because you know that Hashem is the one that's bringing the clients not your Google AdWords because you know that Hashem is giving you the wisdom to create this new product or new patent or new this or knew that not your Genius that you learned at Harvard University it has nothing to do with you so you're conducting your business Faithfully can only be done if you are living tah and that's why shamai is telling you make the Torah a permanent fixture the second thing he means is that treat Torah like a business the reason why in our prayers in the morning prayers we pray for hasem to give us the right to deal and be involved in Torah comes from the word means business that's it businesses why does it say to learn to right away or it says says if you treat Torah like you treat your business you're much more likely to be a millionaire in MIT you're much more likely to succeed for eternity because in your business what do you do in your business every day you look for new customers non-stop you're looking for customers customer here customer here customer here customer here customer leaves you want to bring break the whole store custom you let the customer leave how could you let the customer leave she wasn't interested she wanted to buy paper we don't even sell paper we sell screwdrivers still sell a screwdriver Until It's Paper maybe she's going to need a screwdriver one day customer leaves you want to lose your mind you're looking for customers all day Shai is telling you treat the Torah like it's like it's business look for mitv look for opportunities help this guy do look for oh yeah you know what I just ate I should do the last blessing I just came out of the bathroom oh I should have a poster outside the bathroom to remind me to say and even if I remember maybe somebody else doesn't remember wow I should have a extra nice feeling not just the ones for a couple hundreds because it's the cheapest thing I could buy on eBay I should make sure the is kosher comes from an honorable with because if if someone that doesn't have that's not a kosher Jew write your doesn't matter if you paid $200 for it or $2 million for it it's not Kosher it's worthless if a writes a SE T you can't use it burn it it's worth nothing falls ifom falls on the floor everyone has to fast seph Falls everyone has to fast but if writes a seph you could burn it it's worth nothing they have machines now writing machines they made a machine to write seph T it's not Kosher can't use it someone writ someone that writes your someone writes your has to be a koser Jew what are you looking for a discount you should be excited to find out this fine is expensive because it took the guy a year and a half to make him should be excited the mizza is not $12 like it's uh on on Amazon or Ebay it's a little more expensive because it's going to protect you inside and outside of the house and by the way who taught us the Minag of kissing the who taught us we learned that onos the convert he's the one that taught us onos the convert when the emperor found out that he converted the Judaism said kill him bring him to me I'm going to kill him myself he sent a few uh soldiers to the house they came into the house they started talking to him he said a couple of words they all converted so he sent said to the next don't talk to him don't let him talk it all to speed up the story they come in they don't talk they say you don't talk you talk we're going to kill you they pull him out of the house and before they pull him out of the house he kisses the mizza takes his hand kisses the muza he goes what are you doing what are you kissing the door for they couldn't stop themselves like kissing the door go oh because your king is protecting you only when you're outside my king protects me when I'm inside and outside that's what he said who was this guyos onos all of the commentary you see on Tora is onos commentary you see on the Kash you see encos yeah Unos the righteous convert he was in line to be the next Emperor wow he was instead of being an emperor he became a Jew simple Jew look at the reward he got why because he treated the T as the greatest business in the world he was constantly looking for mitv that he treated like a 100 karat def flawless diamond he's looking for looking to kiss the we kissed the why we kiss the we're not obligated to kiss theza why do we kiss the M why do we kiss the why do we kiss the because we're telling hem we love your so much we we love them I'm so excited for the seph that you gave me I'm so excited for this fine that I have the right to to use for six days a week I'm so excited that you give me this m it's going to protect me inside and outside the house I'm not looking for discounts I'm excited about it so Shai is telling you deal with the Tor like you deal with your business go chase mitv go make sure that the Torah is something that you're studying not because you feel like oh I'm obligated I'm this I'm that you're excited for it just like you're excited for the next customer CU he's going to be the one that's going to make you rich the to the one that's going to get you eternity and then he says but if you actually want to do that you want to succeed say little and do much so this means a couple of things first and foremost when it comes comes to Tora don't publicize to the world like hey guys nice seeing you I'm going to learn to for two hours don't publicize it to the world that you going to learn T why because as soon as you make a statement there's an audience but there's an audience that you don't know he's in the room he's always in the room his name is Satan as soon as you say I'm going to learn to for two hours what does he do he brings all of his soldiers he says okay we're going to do everything we can to make sure he doesn't get there make sure that we give him every distraction we sent a girlfriend from 20 years ago we send a client that all of a sudden wants to buy we're going to send this we're going to send that we're going to do everything we possibly can to make sure he doesn't show up to the sh know you're not going you publicize you're going to your audience Satan himself is there I'm sorry my friend you've been working for me for 30 years all of a sudden you want to do chuva you crazy you want to go work for hem no way I'm going to send you the girlfriend I'm going to send you the kids I'm going to send you the problems I'm going to send you the flat tire I'm going to send you this I'm going to you going do everything everything if he was allowed he would have show show you himself to scare you to death if he was permitted from hasm to do it just to make sure you don't go learn toah you go learn toah quiet somebody asked you where you going I'm going to meet some friends technically you are you're not lying you don't lie you are going to meet some friends cuz there going to be other people there your friends friendly with them go to meet some friends want to come what are you guys going to do just come it's friendly it's nice next thing you know you have 18 people with you coming to hey I thought you going to have friends I'm here my friends look there water IC teas delicious every week nice people what's better than this Oh I thought we're going to watch the game okay the game after learn to off first it's only a little while how long it's a little while 2 hours later oh I thought it's only little while yeah 2 hours is only a little while you live 24 hours a day 2 hours what is not even 10% Be Clever don't announce to the I'm going to sh I have sh every Wednesday I have Shield every Tuesday I have this I have that don't announce anything to the world quiet say little and then when you get there you do much when you get there don't joke around do nothing okay let's hang out let's do this let's do that by the time you get to the Tora really you were there for 4 hours you learn to for 15 minutes that's what happens sometimes people organize sh T I know the rabbis mean well they organized for especially for teenagers in today's world unfortunately it's very very difficult to entice teenagers to come learn to they have no interest whatsoever they think they know everything already even before they know what how to spell the word to they already think they know what's in the Torah on top of that there's no iPhones in uh Moses Moses didn't have an iPhone in the desert so they're not interested in him either Steve Jobs is not a character in so they're not interested in that either only obligates you so they're not really interested it's hard to get them to come if they're secular if they're religious they're saying listen if we're religious we already learned enough to in school what AM we going to learn more to after school let me live let me play basketball let me watch basketball let me go do this let me go do that it's hard it's hard to get him so what some rabbis are clever what they try to do they try to entice people what do you entice Jews with food entice him with food you make food you make sushi Sharma this that you make a bunch of food come come eat food have drinks smoke hookah do all these things have fun then they throw somebody like me in there to teach them some to some do it successfully they get some of these people to eat a little bit Jo enjoy the thing but then they actually get the Torah but some forget the Torah they go there they're there for 4 hours 4 hours they're eating drinking laughing this that last five minutes oh by the way guys let's learn to 5 minutes to for four hours of food you got to make the to the the key part yes I know everyone's trying to be clever just to get them in there but come on you have to has to be fair can't spend four hours eating food chewing drinking this that and the other thing has two minutes of T got actually teach him to and especially we have in some cases where the kids are so uninterested that even when you get to the Torah they're not really listening they're just joking around and no one tells them anything cuz no one wants to insult them no one wants to hurt their feelings listen you're giving them food you're investing money you're investing time the least you could you know ask from people is decency be quiet for the next hour be quiet just listen to what I'm saying what's the worst going to happen you do shalom what's going to happen listen to to have some some respect this is why in aure that I had in the breast of Center in Aventura and anyone that watched it was like uh first I don't know maybe 40 minutes yeah a lot of noise in the background all young kids all teenagers teenagers 20-year-olds and you hear a lot of noise in the background and eventually after about a half hour so I stop and I tell him okay are you guys going to continue laughing and making this a joke we're going to actually learn here you cuz you're not paying me I'm not doing this for for you it's not like I work here I'm doing you a favor I'm teaching you Tora to give you meaning meaning to your life but I don't have to be here everyone was shocked they never heard such a thing like as if I told them I'm Moses first time they heard somebody tell them they're not doing something good and you would think you know why didn't why didn't anybody ever tell them this because everyone's always scared the kids are going to run away if you yell at them what ended up happening all of them every single one of them stopped started paying attention and we went on for the next three and a half hours they didn't want to let me leave all of them came they came closer enough with the food enough with the jokes all of them like okay this guy's serious okay what do you have to say start asking questions debates da da da three and a half hours they ask they didn't want me to leave cuz finally somebody stood up and it's like Hey listen enough's enough so many people are so scared of offending people and hurting people and is what happens the kids take advantage of it treat them like an adult tell them they need to be adults tell them you're an adult treat them like you're they're supposed to be treated that's it I'm not telling you beat them up but don't let them walk all over you just because you're a rabbi just because you have a beard just because you're supposed to represent to no one no one in the T said that it's a mitvah to let people walk on top of you so when you're going and you're doing these MIT any Mitzvah where it's learning Tor or it's going to do you're going to donate money you're going to do all these things he says speak little and do much this is a common problem today with people that want to do a lot one of the requirements of being a Jew how we know that someone is the one of the descendants of is when they're generous generous people obviously generally if you look statistically as far as donations even whether it's secular or religious doesn't matter the biggest donators in the world are am are Jews the universities the hospitals and even things that are anti-em they're still they're donated by Jews we're very generous people unfort when it comes to kiru when it comes to actually helping people do chva everyone wants to do it but they forget or it's not convenient or for this they don't have money or for this this the Satan is going to do everything he possibly can to make sure you don't do kiru to make sure you don't help other Jews do cha why because it's the biggest possible thing you can do we had a whole sh in California about it and several other sh about it of the the significance of kiru anyone that wants to M like 100% this is proven correct with evidence and Witnesses you want miracles in your life get involved with kiru on a regular basis sometimes the miracles happen right away sometimes they take time but they happen I've seen it with my own life I've seen it with my students I've seen it with my helpers it's unbelievable someone wants to have miracles in their life whether it's or they want to have a career a better career or or Z or anything anything nothing is beyond AEM the most convincing argument you can give him is saving his kids and this is what I said before what are you doing for hem learning to is for you is for you getting married is for you having kids is for you everything is for you what's for hem bring back his kids bring them home bring him home they don't know who Hashem is they don't believe him they think we all came from some explosion they think we all came from some monkey how come the monkey still here then if we all came from monkeys why is the monkey still here why didn't he evolve also mkin people think we came from monkeys from lizards from fish everything but Hashem they think some uh you know some guy that was a Jew he gave us a get out of jail free card we don't have to do anything anymore they call that Christianity we think some illiterate discovered God in the middle of the desert and he says okay you have to pray five times a day and then beat up your wife they call that Islam they think some fat guy with no clothes on says you don't have to do anything just say and that's said everything's fine meditate keep all the anger inside they call that Buddha or Buddhism everything but Hashem everything but Torah by the way you know how he di no h how no I don't know how he di I do how in the English uh uh encyclopedia he said that he poisoned himself eating some uh poison uh mushrooms that's I die oh wow is that a shame yeah so I'm and and the people around the world 7 and a half billion people doing everything but the truth everything but T so when you bring back another child of Hashem back to him you know how excited he is he's been looking for him for 20 years 30 years 40 years just in this world not considering the fact that he's been here already three or four gilim reincarnations hundreds of years hasm is waiting for him to do chuba finally you bring him you give him a CD that cost $1 gave him a CD the guy started keeping Shabbat you know excited AEM is for that you send him a link for free on Facebook on YouTube on this one on that one the guy started keeping Shabbat started keeping no excited hasm is about that why wouldn't he give you a miracle you saved this Kitt he's waiting for for 500 years but what happens when it comes to kiru all of a sudden bills all of a sudden accidents all of a sudden responsibilities all of a sudden I'm busy all of a sudden everything in the world's happening to get in the way of your KY you had $5,000 ready for uh I mean you have $5,000 ready for what do you do you get $50 for kiru 40 4950 for Hanah party who's going to do from Hanah party who's going to do from Hanah party you had $10,000 to donate $99,900 is is going to pouring party $90 to buy some book that you're never going to read and $10 you're going to give CDs oh 10 CDs 10 CDs like you're doing a favor why because Satan is going to convince you to do everything but save the children of hem the only way to have theot the Merit to do K is to listen to Shai make the Torah your business be involved in it be involved in a business of saving Jews if you have money make sure that's the number one thing you don't have money find time it's 24 hours in a day Hashem gave you a box of 24 delicious chocolates yes you give me one give me one chocolate 24 I gave you give me one chocolate you going say no is that greedy one chocolate he's asking for take one hour invest it in one chocolate but don't like eat half of it and give it to all it's like a half hour it's like K but at the same time you're also like watching sports in the background it's to but in reality you're listening to music at the same time no I like to listen to music when I study about mhu it's like an eaten chocolate no one wants to eaten chocolate give them the one with the wrapper on still brand new in the box he gave you 24 make it your business make it your business to do chuva and to help others do chuva and also by the way when you help others do chuva your chuva becomes easy all of a sudden you want to keep Shabbat you've been suffering with your Shabbat since you started keeping Shabbat for six months all of a sudden you help your friend do chuva all of a sudden you want to keep Shabbat nothing changed in your life but all of a sudden the got weaker just cut off two of his legs all of a sudden doesn't bother you anymore not to use your phone on Shabbat all of a sudden you want to wake up in the morning to go to be all of a sudden your yet is getting smaller when it was a giant a month ago before you helped the guy do Chua your Chua becomes easier you have problems overcoming a certain sin help somebody else overcome it a lot of the guys that tell me listen I have problems with wasting seed unfortunately there's many many many guys that have this problem I tell them the best thing you can do aside from learning tah with serious serious focus and so on aside from learning T do K why you help other kids stop wasting seed by publicizing the Shure about wasting seed your is going to die all of is connected you help somebody else beat their is going to fight for you because in reality the Tor already told us we can't beat the actually out right says it the is so big so powerful so strong so wise so old we can't beat him we can't it's always there he's always there he never leaves Works 24 hours a day matter of fact I learned something very scary from one time AEM everything that he created he created an equal or an opposite to it so for example mosu the prophet of the Jews bam the wicked prophet of the of the Gentiles black white tall short fat skinny and so on but just like Hashem has the the Throne of Glory he created the same Throne of Glory for the Satan and Satan has many workers that do his will and all of these workers are our own Creations because every time according to every time somebody makes a Mitzvah they create an angel every time somebody makes a sin they create a demon where are these demons they're right next to us the says that if we actually saw what's really next to us we'd go crazy there was a way one of the sages actually did it there's a way to actually find out what's next to you seeing all these things and he actually almost went crazy anyway each time we create a we make a sin we make a demon this demon is going to overcome us he's going to try to influence to make more demons just like the if we make a Mitzvah the the the angel is going to influence to make more mitv so for a lot of the sins that we make is really because of previous sin we've made and they we're constantly giving more power to the evil angels to the demons making our life much more difficult when it comes to CH if you made a lot of sense but in general all of this is from the employees of the Satan but there are certain times as Satan himself gets off the chair himself himself he gets off the chair one of those conditions is if you start recruiting his employees by doing K you start doing K Satan is going to get off the chair himself to go meet you he's going to send you the ex-girlfriend he's going to send you the customer he'll give you money they'll give you millions of dollars just don't do K just don't go learn to he himself is going to get off the Throne of Glory that he has to go stop you from doing K so it's a big deal only way to beat this already told us first remember there's a God second learn toah what Shai is telling us over here make Torah your business make it something that you're constantly involved in your day is everything revolves around Torah not Torah has to fit in somewhere get to a point where Torah is the focus everything else is extra and last but not least he says remind them of the days going to die that's what the says why remind them of the day going to die because if you think about listen one day this world ends not that Hashem wants us to be depressed but rather hashm wants us to focus on the prize meaning that we know that one day we're going to have to pay the bill for the sins we're making or get the reward for the Mitzvah that we're making if we're constantly involved in mitv for constantly involved in doing k for constantly involved in doing good things who's better than us in the book of Samuel Samuel 1 first verse it says Ben there was a certain man from rathan Z from Mountain epim whose name was El Son of yoham son of who son of so who is who is this El with today we learned together gave this amazing was Samuel's father says okay so this the says that Samuel in his generation was the weight as far of his his prophecy his righteousness and so on like Moshe and Aon now we already know that Moshe raenu spoke to Hashem face to face the only one the greatest of all Prophets The Prophet of prophets humblest man that ever lived Moshe Moses my servant he's the only one that Hashem specifically called in my servant or the first one I mean endless compliments from hasem himself abouton was also first Coen everyone that's a Coen is descendants of Aon greatest of great and here we have kazal telling us that Samuel sh was like both of them needless to say if shuel is great who's his father here in the first verse of the book of Samuel says who's his father El what did his father do to Merit having such an amazing son it's not just uh he got lucky his son his son went to good Yeshiva and had a nice rabbi with good stories and great M you don't get a son like that you don't get Moses to be your son just because you're a nice guy what did El can do to deserve the Merit of having shoel as his son the says like it says that El was sort of like a publicist but publicist for what to convince and entice his entire generation to go to Shilo and worship hasem and every year he would go there four times three during the holidays and one extra that he took upon himself and every year he would go there in a different direction and he would publicize this event each time each time he would go there four times a year he would publicize it on the road that he's going making signs going door too come with me to Shilo AEM this to the point where his entire generation went to Shilo with him the ultimate KY publicist in history he got the entire nation to go to Shilo to go worship hasem to go pray to go do chuva entire generation sh says entire generation of my children came to see me because of you I'm going to give you a son that's greater than great you want Miracles you want Miracle children you want Miracle life don't care of but you can't do it occasionally here and there once a month you have to constantly be involved in it constantly I know not everybody's in the business of doing kiru I know that every not everybody has time to go on the internet all day and publicize it but just make it your business always have a few CDs to give to whoever is is available always have a lecture in mind that Hey listen I listen to this lecture automatically as soon as you finish a lecture share it wasn't to take you an extra two minutes you watch two hour lecture three- hour lecture an hour lecture whatever you watched it's going to take you another 2 minutes to share it with a few people it's it's not your business if they watch or not it's your business to spread it Hashem is rewarding you for the effort not for the execution why because the execution is not your business has nothing to do with you the execution of what actually is an outcome of all of this is in his hands it's in hashem's hands whether you make money or not is not up to you A lot of people work hard not everybody's a millionaire plenty of people out there work harder than anyone else and they make a dollar a day in China a dollar a day or in India $1 a day they live on they work harder than any American in the world $1 a day so hard work doesn't necessarily mean you're going to be a millionaire you're going to be successful the beauty of Torah is that hasem pays you for the work not for the outcome outcome is in his hands so you getting involved in K on a regular basis you watch a lecture you spread it you constantly set up okay you know what can I get a few friends religious not religious keep don't keep Wicked righteous doesn't matter can I get a few friends together to get a rabbi to come give a lecture or make them watch a lecture together at my house get a few people give a few CDs spread out on on the internet whatever you can do something every day something every day make it your business because it's also going to help you with the first problem which is learning toah when we first start learning toah it's bitter in the beginning it's hard we're used to the business we you used to reading financial statements and weather reports tell the guy learn about mosu like mosu again didn't we learn about him last year already again mosenu okay we know he was born baby this that again I have to learn about him Yes again why because this year's going to be different this you're going to learn something new from M the same baby that became M you're going to learn something different this year the same story is going to teach you something different every is something different and then when you do that then you do then you do M then you do all of these T never ends it's constant lessons we can have the same sh the same Mish five million times not five times 5 million times and every time it's going to be new every time we won't even have to repeat the same word twice or the same story twice that's how much there is in tah but in the beginning when you first start learning it's hard it's bitter it's difficult it's beyond you you have yet you have the girlfriend you have the boyfriend you have the sports you have this you have that you have the stock report you have everything else you have the Satan himself came and sitting next to you scaring you how you going to overcome all this hasem says number one sayma number two learn to number three remind yourself of the day you're going to die but if you have a hard time you have a hard time even getting to the point of saying kma you have a hard time of even learning to you have a hard time even thinking about death because you're not a morbid person you don't want to be negative you don't want to be this you don't want to be that okay fine go up another guy do some Chua give him a CD invite him to study with you study with him already things are going to become easier already things is going to be easier and on top of it you get rewarded for both every Mitzvah he ever makes or she makes goes to your account also that's the mercy of AEM that's the graciousness of hasem and that's what shamai is telling us here as the last part he says and greet everyone with a pleasant countenance now anyone that knows the debates between Shay and H or bet Shay and bet they know that shamai is known and bet Shai in general known as the more stringent more difficult more strict House of Torah H seems like it's calmer demeanor nicer flexible more flexible more lenient so here we're seeing this businessman telling us learn Tor make it your business say little do much all wonderful things but then all sound like either but then he says something completely off make sure you greet everyone with a smile H said that makes sense that's h Shay is saying it with a smile if you reading page 30 he says three different kind three different came to shamai to convert the first one comes to him knocks on his door say I want to convert to Judaism how many Tas do you have so we have two we have the oral tah we have the written tah goes okay I don't want to believe this oral toah I just want to learn the written toah so I want to learn written tah and I want you to convert me based on only me keeping the written T like the carites or the reform I want to do that Shai kicked them out with not even a question no no you should do you should this nothing no argument out threw him out surely later another guy comes in he says to him I want to learn a T I want to learn the entire Tor on one foot on one foot I want to stand on one foot and teach me meaning in a simple way somebody says one second he goes he brings the measuring stick that he has for his job for his business starts beating him up with it and kicks him out of the house you're on your one foot and then third one comes in says listen I heard you guys are accepting converts I want to be a qu guy's not even a Jew but he already wants to be a quen because I want to convert right now and I want to also I want you to help me get measured for the clothes for the qu he's like hold on one second let me get the stick again he kicks him out also so we hear from the story of bet Shi tough cookie tough all three by the way all three went to bet and he converted all of them and they all became big the of worked Shai didn't work for those three but why does the gar says that in reality in many cases even though Shai is more strict and and even though most of the time goes as he the more lenient option they say in the next World in is going to be like Shay not like the more strict it's going to be like shamai is right all along in reality Shai is right exactly because of this Shai says listen you as a righteous Jew as a righteous noahide as a righteous person that loves hasem you always have to welcome everyone with a smile as long as you know they're serious as long as they're not making fun of the Torah as long as you know that they have the good intentions but the minute the Torah is being shamed the minute someone is mocking the Torah like wanting to learn it on one foot or wanting to become a when before they even know what T is saying that one Tor is not good the other one is good like the conservative and the reform that's what they say they only want to learn one Tor the reform they don't even want to learn the one because now we've got to the point where they give Bar Mitzvah to dogs and a conservative slowly but surely a following suit this is why according to our Torah if someone did a a conservative conversion they won't be counted in Israel won't be counted as part of am why because even though the process itself is the same you go in front of three judges they ask you questions you answer the questions you finish the questions you go to the mikve you go into the mik you dip in the mik you come out Hallelujah you're a Jew according to not a Jew why because the judges are not cons considered aim are not considered Fair people because they create different laws or modify the Torah they say you can listen to this but not to this say you can keep kosher but only in the house you don't have to do it outside you could keep Shabbat but as long as you keep coming to Bess even if you have to drive they modify the Torah when someone modifies the Torah they're no longer reliable you it doesn't matter they can know the whole Torah by heart or they think they know it if someone doesn't have enough to listen to the Torah and know that they have to minimize themselves in front of our sages in front of our Almighty to know that we're nothing we're nothing in comparison to everyone that came before us even just one generation ago can't listen to them so even though the process is the same in reality it's not about the process in reality Judaism and the mitv is not about the mitv it's not about you L it's not about you eating kosher or not Kosher you really think hem cares if you eat a bird or you eat aaz or you eat this one you eat that one you think he cares if you eat the cow or you eat the uh the pig or you eat the horse you think he cares you think hasem cares if you drive or you don't drive on Shabbat like a changes him he's perfect doesn't change him he doesn't benefit out of it the whole purpose of all of the mitv is to connect to him to connect to him by following the instructions that he gave you by giving him the respect he deserves and you're obligated to give that's the point of all of the MIT the reason we have all 620 mitv 613 biblical and seven rabinal total 620 mitv the reason why we have them is not because hem needs you to do the mitzvot is because that's what he created you for and in order for you to connect to him you do it through the MIT in order to occupy your mind with Torah you have to do the mitv because if you just read to like it's just for scholarly reasons you want to be a scholar you want to go on the History Channel and tell people what happened 3,000 years ago that's not connecting to Hashem that's just reading a book and saying what it says you're not special but connecting to the almighty 24 hours a day by minimizing yourself and re realizing that you're a servant of Hashem realizing that the only reason you exist is because of asem making yourself a vessel of his Torah by publicizing his Torah making yourself a servant of Hashem by constantly doing his will and eliminating your own opinion that's what makes you special the more you minimize yourself in front of Hashem the bigger you are to him but the way you have to do it is by doing the you can't say I love hem but go against him at the same time you're just like your kids can't say Aba IMA we love you but at the same time they destroy your house every day even though you told them not to Aba I love you but they rob your bank account AB I love you but they lock you out of the house just because they think it's funny do me a favor don't love me just don't lock me out of the house don't talk to me that way have some respect have some decency he gave you and he's giving you everything and the only reason why you exist is to connect to him that's what the MIT is for it's not you're not being put into this world to be a robot when you go to betet 3 seconds praying and already you're out oh I prayed prayed I prayed I prayed this I prayed that do you even know was your head there did you pray or did you just say a bunch of words just thinking about the business deal you have to do 3 hours we eat first course second course fourth course fifth course fish meat chicken this salads chocolates par meat whatever eat three hours we're eating 30 seconds finished 3 hours you eat and you can't spend 2 minutes actually saying hashem's name the right way you're chewing for three hours you can't use that same mouth that's been chewing for three hours to say like a human being say it out loud make sure everybody says amen you can't thank the almighty for giving you the five course meal for 3 minutes 4 minutes most people has live to have a privilege of not being sick to the point of not being able to go to the bathroom we don't realize how much of a privilege it is to go to the bathroom we don't realize we go to the bathroom like it's supposed to be the body is supposed to work that way like some idiot told me one day you know the body is so inefficient oh yeah let me see the next time you're constipated tell me how inefficient it is let me see the next time that you can't go to the bathroom for 4 days tell me how inefficient the body is let me see the next time that you see blurry vision you can't see tell me how inefficient the body is let me see the next time you find out you have cancer there a cell that's growing for absolutely no reason whatsoever inside your body and killing everything in sight tell me what happens tell me how inefficient the body is some guy inefficient we go to the bathroom everything is fine everything works we thinking no big deal you say you thank hem for letting everything work for all the pipes everything is working everything came in everything came out doesn't matter if it's ice cream or if it's steak or if it's burgers or if it's shma or if it's everything turned into blood who told us to turn into blood everything turned into BL whatever didn't turn into blood came out of the body body whatever can be used to make you better to make you healthier stayed in whatever is not good came out perfectly efficient machine and you think it's supposed to be that way you come out of the bathroom you forgot about God it's supposed to be take it for you do you do oh yeah yeah I do have not even one second yeah finished why you can't think about it for a second why are you doing a you're playing with your phone you're looking at the stock portfolio you're watching TV 20 seconds it takes you say say it like a human being say like like someone that loves hem that's appreciating the fact that your body worked you chewed for three hours you can't say with some that's the thing that we have we take a lot of things for granted and all starts we don't take the Torah seriously when you have leadership in places like conservative and reform schs where they tell you it's okay to modify the Torah and we're ignorant we don't know enough to know if it's right if it's wrong they're rabbis they're rabanes they're this they're that that's why the Torah says with them you kicked them out you beat him up with the stick just like shamai did why because they're going against the Torah their conversions Don't Count Their Shabbat Don't Count Their mitv don't count their prayers are not even heard as a matter of fact when one of them says kadish not even allowed to say Amen someone violates Shabbat says kadish not allowed to say amen that's how bad it is according to the Torah of of why because they modified they had the nerve to modify the Torah something perfect you don't modify if you modify the things you're makes you look like and what you're saying is that you think you're better that you're Divine that it's subject to translation and this is why now we're continuing to evolve as we are at the end of timesm told us we're going to have a lot of converts a lot of people going to become righteous Jews a lot of people going to do chuva but he also says they also going to have a big war part of that war when a mashia comes will be from the a of Wicked Jews we've already had problems with since Mount Si but how we going to know who's the a of and who's the rav because sometimes the a of has a beard in the Hat also it's not just conservative and reform sometimes it's Orthodox also how are we going to know first and foremost easiest way way easiest way is we see who followed this mishna who made Torah a permanent fixture within their life as it is not as they customize it to be as we got it from Mount sonai not as we cut off this piece cut off that piece p no the skirt's too long let's make it shorter no the scarf on the head is not nice anymore let's put a wig oh you know what even the wig is not good enough let's make it a long wig oh the kosher it doesn't have to do this doesn't have to do that the ones that are modifying the Torah you already know that's much more likely to be the AR but aside from that hasem is actually having Mercy on us and the ones that have pretty much no connection whatsoever to hasem he's making it more obvious just like when Hashem allowed Christianity to be born initially the original Christians from 2,000 years ago were very similar to Jews some of them are actually Jews they're much more religious than the Christians of today but a few hundred years later the sages implemented a plan and it told one of the sages go start a new version of Christianity and make it so different from our religion that it's obvious everything that we're not allowed to do do Catholicism was born they turned idol worship into an everyday thing they have saints different strange holidays different weird things things that are completely obviously antito this is happening again now 2,000 years later the reform are now becoming humanists humanists they call themselves many of them and the humanists have a new rule no more no more circumcision why it's not fair we're not accepting humans as they're born we're saying to them that they're not good enough by cutting a piece of them they're good enough as they are we don't want to offend the little 8 day old baby stupid idiots like the baby remembers he's going to remember when one day he wants to be a Jew wants to marry a Jew and he doesn't have a circumcision he's going to remember you then we don't want to offend the baby and tell him that he's not good enough and give him a circumcision he's perfect as he is no more circumcision we don't want to offend the dog why wouldn't the dog get a Mitzvah let's put on him too we don't want to offend the women let's make them rabbis also why not we don't want to offend anyone everyone is good everyone gets a trophy first place gets a trophy 80th Place gets a trophy everyone wins everyone's a winner which is the opposite of reality CU in reality most people are not winners in real life most people do not win but AEM is separating them to make it obvious to give us a choice which side are you on you're either with the humanist and no no circumcision and the Dog Bar Mitzvah and the fake conversions and the fake and to fake everything or you're 100% you're going to have to make a chice choice either Torah is real or it's fake it's either 100% real or it's fake with 99% truth but it's still still fake it's either true or it's false you have to make a choice hm is making it easy for us because the and reform and the conservative and the humanist and the restruction and whatever other names they have every other day he's making it obvious and even the Orthodox that call themselves real but in reality the just Haman in Disguise is making you see them also why because they're the ones that are signing letters against kiru they're the ones that are taking CDs to help people do chuva instead of giving it to people to do chuva instead of supporting bringing the rabbi to help people do Chua publicizing it or at the very least being quiet and not getting in the way what do they do they take the C they break them they throw them in a garbage they publicize a bad name against the rabbi because Shalom someone will tell the the truth and help people do Chu so if you're looking for the truth as it says in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 4 if you look for me you'll find me if you look for me with all of your heart and all of your soul if you're looking for hem you're looking for the truth Hashem is making it easy for you don't come to me when the mashiah comes and say oh I didn't know you knew you knew that being given Bar Mitzvah to dogs is not is not in the Torah you knew that you can't go against kiru you knew that modesty is very important to hasem you knew that there's nobody in the Torah wearing a wig you knew it's not it's not it's not some mystical thing the Torah is not in heaven it's here you have it in front of you read the book it's in there commentary make it easy for you you don't even have to know Hebrew you can e English Spanish Russian whatever language you want don't come with the Mas oh I didn't know you knew everyone knows everyone knows you have to make a choice who's your god the one of Satan you have to pick and that's what people have to understand that it's people say wait a minute they came to is it true that all of these people that are not following the Tora are going to go to G all of them it's the majority of the world and wasn't exactly known for yelling and screaming you know men of truth but he's old man already at that time that's is everybody going to go to Gom really smashed on the tables of course better they going to go to G what do you mean what kind of question is that what is it like he says it's like you're walking around in the desert there's no food for Miles there's no water for Miles there's nothing your next door neighbor is a scorpion and the other one is a snake both of them want to kill you and all of a sudden you see a castle brand new Castle middle of the desert you go inside the castle Everything Is Beautiful clean brand new immediately you see a kitchen with all amazing food and cakes apple and chicken and steaks and everything is fresh and hot already ready and right next to it the plates are made out of diamonds so you help yourself to a couple of diamonds in the pocket and you help yourself to an apple and then a steak then an ice cream cuz it's parve and this and that and all of a sudden there's a hand that grabs your shoulder hey hey what are you doing here who told you you could eat this food who told you could be in this castle like no what do you mean it was here I didn't know anybody owned it they throw you in front of the judge say listen this thief just went the castle and started stealing the King's food so the judge asks you what were you thinking what were you thinking going into the King's Castle and stealing his food and diamonds on top of it and rasman says when the fool says I didn't know anyone owned it the judge will punish him twice one for stealing and one for stupidity for thinking that it all came from nothing the castle came from nothing the food is warm without anyone cooking it the ice cream didn't melt and it's waiting for you only without nothing from an explosion that's another reason you go to the Gom what was said this you knew you knew the dog is not supposed to wear it feeling you know you're not supposed to drive on Shabbat you knew mhia comes you can't say I didn't know can't say I didn't know and this is what the next mishna says relatively quickly we'll go through it the mishna was written by rebi RAB that all of the sages agreed that if the mashiah was coming at that time it would be him it would be Rabbi it's the perfect human being in this next Mish 16 is his son raban gel so like we learned before if the father is great he's going to Bear good fruit and was amazing we saw what was that's why the enti says anytime raan gel says his opinion on something that's the by default doesn't matter makes sense doesn't make sense he says something that's it he rules ra it could be anybody else ra G says that's it that's how great was was accustomed to say make yourself a raav make yourself a teacher remove yourself from uncertainty and do not give excess tithes by estimating instead of measuring so first and foremost is repeating what we already learned a few weeks ago which is make yourself a rabbi why is he repeating it we already learned make yourself a rabbi here he's telling us even if you're a rabbi make yourself a rabbi it's so important for you to have a rabbi that it has to be repeated because even if you learned the other mishna that we learned several weeks ago and already by now you've taken it all and you became a rabbi don't think you know too much because you're going to need a rabbi to strain you out it's not always going to be a rabbi that you need to know for maybe you don't know you need to go to Rabbi for you need to learn from him but once in a while you're going to need a rabbi for I don't know I'm learning to two three four hours a day but my kids are still failing at school my wife hates me my husband's this my wife this panasa is not coming my kids's walking around with ripped clothes explain this to me how could it be you're going to need a rabbi to tell you what's going to what's happening you need somebody to straighten you out need somebody to explain to you listen my son Hashem is only going to give a test to those he loves if he's not giving you test if all you're getting is reward you should be worried if you just W won 100 ,000 but you're you should be worried my friend hasem is paying you a reward in this life if you're driving a Ferrari on Shabbat you should be worried if you found a z after two weeks of looking you should be worried supposed to be a little harder supposed to be a little more difficult maybe you didn't ask the right questions maybe you didn't ask her if she has maybe she doesn't agree to keep Shabbat maybe she doesn't agree to do what she needs to do to to to build a Jewish home so to finalize all of it he's telling you you need a r you need a r to remind you of what God said because sometimes you're going to have a suff sometimes you're going to have a doubt you're going to have uncertainty you have a moment of weakness and only the r that knows you is going to be able to help you only the one that you told the deepest dirtiest secret you have he's the one that can help you the one that teaches you Al can't help you what going to tell you go wash your hands out the better way what is he going to tell you keep Shabbat you keep Shabbat already learn to you already learning 2 3 four 5 hours a day only the r that knows that you have you have problems with SCH that you don't know how to treat your wife he's going to know he doesn't treat his wife good of course you going have P problems of course you're not going to have any money the P comes from the wife not from the husband you can work 500 hours a day you're not nice to your wife no parasa is coming to your house and even if you're getting parasa and without being nice to your wife if you actually nice to your wife you'd get 500 million times more if you're a millionaire you would be a billionaire if you were nice to your wife a man that's goes against his wife but thinks he's a sadik cuz he wears white he wears white in but he yells at his wife every day there's no one stupid in him he's losing money with every yell he's losing his with every yell he says only the that knows these things about you because your wife keeps coming to him crying he beat me up again he yelled at me he this he did this every day she's crying to the the RAB only that Rabbi is GNA get you out of the he's gonna tell oh yeah you lost all your money in the stock market let me tell you why cuz for the last 6 months your wife is coming here crying every day and every time I try to call you you hang up on me that's why oh your kids are failing in school oh let me tell you why because every day the principal calls because your kids keep cutting class but you don't want to pick up the phone you just think that as long as you pay $22,000 a month they're going to keep accepting your kids okay they accepted them they accepted her $2,000 a month but the kid is not going to pass he's going to stay in first grade forever he's going to be 30 years old first grade kid has a beard he's still in first grade cuz you didn't want to answer the phone cuz you thought money buys everything you didn't pay attention to your kids oh your kid's doing drugs yeah of course he's doing drugs why cuz you watch TV and his favorite movie star is doing drugs on TV oh your daughter has a boyfriend of course she has a boyfriend cuz she goes to public school who is she going to be friends with what sadik from from yav who she going to be a friends with it's the rabbi that knows you he's going to tell you these things the rabbi that knows these things going to tell you he's going to get you out of the out of the doubt that you have he going to straighten you out and last but not least he tells us something that literally doesn't mean much but when we

give 160 don't give like approximately 150 cuz 150 is better than 160 and don't even give 200 cuz 160 is the 10 yes you can give excess that's 200 but the point here is not necessarily the money the
