[Music] when you don't have a you start you look for emptiness you're looking for a car you get the car okay now I have the car what do I do oh drive the car yeah but I was really a lot more excited about this car before I bought it now I want to return it why I don't know I want a new car cuz I already have this car for a month that's what happens with rich people you buy a car you get the car you're excited you're excited before you get the car you finally get the car you waited a year for this car cuz it's like one of those fancy schy cars you're on a waiting list for a year you tell all your friends you're on a waiting list oh you're not on a waiting list oh you should be on a waiting list wait wait wait finally you get the car 10 minutes after you get the car your border ready why it still drives nothing nothing changed okay house took you three years to build a house and the kitchen you got the marble from Italy and the floor from Jamaica and the uh the ceilings from uh halulu and all these different parts finally buildt the house and next thing you know okay you still sleep in a bed you're still going on the bathroom in the toilet and you're still using a little stool to eat that's it same thing house you finished yeah what about all that fancy stuff you have you have a uh fountain that comes out and the lights and the beams and the movie theater you go yeah I don't use that stuff I don't use that stuff why don't you use that stuff what's time what it's time to use the fountain and the bowling alley and who has time for that stuff I go to sleep in the bed I go to the bathroom in the toilet and uh you uh you eat in a little stool with a little plate plastic plate cuz you don't feel like washing the dishes the whole house a million dollar house $5 million house $10 million becomes meaningless a week after you're in it a week after you're in it I know I had it out a 4 million doll apartment on the 35th floor 400 foot balcony my apartment was bigger than most people's houses it meant nothing so little it meant to me even at that time I never really cared for that stuff I didn't even care to buy window shades who has time to buy window shades people came to the house oh you you just moved here I'm like no I live here 5 years already cuz where's the furniture cuz has time to my furniture nice house though yeah nice house nice house meaningless meaningless it's all meaningless people chase their whole life they chase they chase money they chase girls they chase guys they chase cars they chase and they chase the emptiness of the atom they chase nothing that's the worst part of life without your whole life you're chasing nothing your whole life you're chasing nothing nothing you chase money you have it so what you have money what do you think if you have money you have 10 million 20 million what do you think you count the money all day like Uncle Scrooge and the cartoons one two what do you think you swim in it you have a little cave and you go and jump inside with a gold coin no it's in a bank it's digital you have an account on a computer look on your phone okay whether you have $3,000 like me or you got $400 million you still have the same account on the phone it still means nothing it's still digital you don't even have the C anymore who walks around with a million dollars nobody it's nothing oh okay I need to buy stuff okay so use the PayPal use the credit card use some application to go buy something or you buy something big deal but what did you give up for that money you gave up your wife you gave up your kids you gave up your life you gave up everything you're 80 years old by the time you want to spend the money you die meaningless that's the worst part of the Alika that's the worst part of the world of Lies your whole life you're chasing nothing and you only realize it's nothing when it's too late on the other hand you could be like Joshua here he already started doing CH three four years ago four years ago when I met him he has toah already right now he already knows what the is right now he already knows what he wants right now that's what we got to be we got to be Joshua we got to keep learning T all day all night why because the more you learn the more you have the you have that's the point that's life that's everything money no money okay it's another adom it's another Adam that's it that's all it is that I think is the most important question and important answer if you have to understand without a says you're simply Walking Dead there's no life why whatever you're chasing you're going to find out that once you get it it was a trap it was nothing you chased it you got it you're bored you need something else says there's in the body there's a small member in the male body must someone that feeds it is always hungry someone that starves it is full says what is that it's the male sex member it's the male member why he says the more you satiated the more you use your male member you're always going to need more more more more girls more you more this more more it's never going to be enough until you kill yourself but if you starve it you only do it at a time with your wife and she's kosher she went to the mik and so on guess what you're always going to be happy you're always going to be content you're never going to complain about that part of your life every time you're together it's going to be like like you're the happiest person in the world yeah but how come the superstar in Hollywood he's replacing wives every other day what happened because he's constantly satiating he's constantly const he never has enough that's what the says that's what says person that's promiscuous person that's immoral what happens it first he starts with himself then he's promiscuous with the opposite sex then it's not enough it's not enough taboo he starts going with the same sex then it's not enough he starts going to these uh protests over here these uh gay pride parades and after you realize that's not enough he starts going with animals there over three million people 1% of the of the US population admit that they're with animals they're intimate with animals like like in theora in T it's nothing new homosexuality is nothing new beastality is nothing new it's in the tanak all these would was a homosexual constantly and on top of with with animals Bel his wife was a dog bam his wife was a donkey why would a king so powerful multi-billionaire go with a donkey why would he go with a dog why because Tora says you don't have him met you're going to constantly look for more and more more more of nothing more of nothing when in reality all you need is a Kos you have a you listen to his rules you're going to know how to treat every part of your body every part of your mind every part of your life and you always going to be happy always stress is only something that people that do not have the god of Israel have you have stress that means you have a little bit less AEM doesn't mean you don't have anything at all but the more stress you have the less God you have more God you have the less stress you have doesn't mean you don't have any problems no you have problems but you know God's the one that gave it to you so it's a little more God today you have extra God today you have extra hasem today why I give you more problems today that's what you got to get to you got pain I got more pain I got more what's my attention I'm suffering in pain you care enough about me to remind me that I have an arm that I have a leg that I have a back that I have a stomach cuz it all hurts I forgot I forgot I had a stomach until it hurt I forgot I had a back till it hurt who thinks about their back did any of you guys think about your back today you thought about you know why cuz it hurt you that's why that's why you thought about your back but the average guy didn't think about his back why because it doesn't hurt you have pain say I have an arm that's why I know I have an arm why it hurts sometimes gives me such a present makes my entire body hurt I say I have a bu I have a bud it hurts I'm many many people wake up in a day and say I have a body most people are like ah I need to lose some weight need to lose some weight lose some weight you have a body you have a nose and it works you have ears you have eyes they work all of this starts with recognizing that is everything as soon as you realize he's everything you start fearing fear why because he's in charge of everything but the more you have the more you have you start fall getting to know more you start invol hm is involved in every part of your life you start falling in love with you can't skip steps you can skip step it starts with the basics and then you little by little go up and up one day we'll go up one day we're going to graduate we're going to do something good in our life but the reality is you have to start little by little little by little you start fear of more you have the less you're going to need from this world that's why you see the biggest T in the world you see the rafki you see ra Kadri you see his father the St you see babaali all these these big sikim you see their houses you you would say maybe a homeless shelter looks better than this house but you look at them you look at their face happiest people on earth I saw one time I I saw a picture my friend my friend sent me a picture of a uh of rki learning tah and now you could get a lot of pictures of him learning T but once once in a while you see rki gets you see how his face lights up you see his face and it's like that's happiness you're not seeing any parties any bells any uh funny hats no no you see happiness I said that that's what happiness looks like why he has he has that's his whole life that's it now what you think he got there by not being afraid of hem you think he got there by break dancing in the middle of the streets with his truck D this that no he got it by learning doing adding more and more of a into his life the more you have the less you care about the house and the Jingle Bells over here and all the lights and what light and what shade and what this who cares about that stuff because you realize it's all nothing it's all nothing can you enjoy stuff sure go enjoy it no problem but remember the more you enjoy this world the less room you're giving for this will give us a little needed needed lesson perhaps I needed it you needed it somebody needed it cuz I said it and hasm gives me the words to say this give us a needed the of of really what uh what's important in life because all of us have had these questions either today yesterday tomorrow all of us have these questions what's the point what's the purpose why am I here why is it so tough why is it not tough why is it tough for him why is it easier for him everybody looks at all types of things this reality this is the answer of all answers it's the purpose of life now you can try it the hard way and keep chasing nothing oh could listen to somebody that had a few things in his life I tell you whether you get it or not nothing's going to change money does not change your problems all it does is allows you to arrive to your problems with limo that's it the only thing that's going to change your life in a positive way is only thing that's going to make you happy is a only thing that's going to give you a purpose is a that's it everything else is a trap everything else is emptiness like the atom but it looks full it looks complete you can keep trying to chase it but you're wasting time why why waste time learn as much as you possibly can add to as many parts of your life as you possibly could imagine and I promise you you will be the not only the person that's happier but you'll be the person that uh everyone admires and everyone wants to be like because everyone is looking for what you already have and that way you could be the biggest Kyu personality just by your existence they see you and they want to be they're going to ask you how are you so happy how do you what do you did you you don't have money for rent how are you so happy how you so how come you don't have any anxiety one he wants to give me the money for rent I'll have the money for rent until then I have them in different ways what's the what's the question give us
