The Wise The Fool And The Showoff - MUSSAR Pirkei Avot (97)

[Music] we are up to the number 97 we are going to uh start a new mishna today uh very deep m um there is a chance that it also may take more than one sh depends on how deep we get into it as the M um get further and further to to aot you see that um we're hearing some of the things that uh we heard in the beginning the first initial chapters but the went into more details when you go into more details there's more work to uh it's more of a breakdown for us also to learning talking in general terms it's very easy anyone can have give you a speech about general terms about anything you know you want to talk about uh the trait of uh happiness good you want to trait the arrogance stinginess anger uh you know what have all types of things but when you go into the details you could spend literally a lifetime a lifetime just focusing on one detail if you really go deep enough so as we go with these uh with the aot we see that the details get more extensive and also as the world around us continues to progress with the things that are happening at the end of days that we find ourselves in uh there's a lot of things that are happening in the news that are also we see mamash it's a uh it's coordinating with our Shields it's coordinating with our Shield um and any that's not paying attention to the details in the news can learn him from simply because you see how uh how some of these things that we're learning about directly messages from sh it's time to learn this it's time to fix this it's time to do this and so on and so forth so today will be also for for Leana SAR s Lana Leana Doris B David beniman sah but um Sarah um Elisha SAR Mercedes Ma R Ben Steve liman Ben abam so the uh the thing that's shocking the nation today as you just mentioned uh um moments ago before the cameras went on is the uh the shooting that happened in uh in Florida and like we talked about already throughout this week this is our fourth J this week um and um this is unfortunately unfortunately not the first shooting but we see the same reaction that they've had over the last 20 years of having shootings in schools all over the United States is happening again again same exact thing first everybody is in hysterical for obvious reasons if you have a you have a heart you're a human being of course you're going to be hysterical you don't cry for other people's children even your enemies you wouldn't want such a thing to happen to them but then after that people try to break down the event and start looking at the background of who the killer was and then you start seeing wait a minute he knew he was a killer he knew he was a killer she knew he knew he everybody knew he was a killer okay so how come nobody did anything the FBI knew the CIA knew that this one knew that one knew the guy told it on Facebook and this he admitted it he prophesized it he did he put a whole billboard in the middle of the highway I'm going to do it so what happened same thing happened with every other one of these disasters and in fact in every single disaster that's ever happened in all of history you'll see in the secular world in the religious World always a bunch of Monday morning quarterbacks you call them what's Monday Morning Quarterback Monday Morning Quarterback is the guy where you know usually in the football we don't watch anymore but in the old days they used to play and they used to watch um all the games for the professional football are on Sunday most of them are on Sunday but everybody has something to say on Monday why the game's already over so you have a lot of advice for the guy oh yeah but if you would have done this and if you would have done that and if you would have done this after the fact everybody has advice what about before after it's useless after the game's over your advice is absolutely worth zero game's over why if so if you would have nothing you can't the game's over Monday Morning Quarterback meaning you want to be the quarterback after the game's already over the same thing with all of these people in the media and all of these so-called friends and family of these people oh yeah you know you shouldn't have taken to that school and should have in that neighborhood and should have uh noticed this and should have noticed that all of these different things of people that are trying to make pretend like they care and then the government pretends like they care and they host these people in the white house and then people pretend like they care and by hosting them on their shows and then people pretend that they care even more by having these people come Speak oh share with us the story that we heard a million and a half things about already in the news by know anyway share with us your feelings and everybody pretends like they care and pretends like they cry and why do I say pretend why you see some tears it looks very much legitimate why you don't the tears of every is an actor every Hollywood why do I say pretend pretend because the only way that you can really show you care is if you could do something about it to talk about it is absolutely meaningless and as you will notice from what's going to happen now another prophecy just a simple promise of what's happened based on a track record of humankind everybody will cry another few days a little less another week a little less another month a little less two months forgot about two months everybody's forgotten about maximum it may be even less than that maybe even less than that everybody's going to forget the story everybody's going to move on with their life they're back to stock market they're back to the new disaster that may happen in the future they're back to uh grocery list they're back to uh you know everything else they're back to their life at the most whoever is really you know really enamored by the story and M like glued to the TV right now in the news and wants to find out oh what are this parent doing how's he going to be all these different things two months maximum the rest of us that are pretty much superficially just know about it through a friend by tomorrow why everybody's got their own life no one cares enough why does no one care enough because care means you have to do something and no one wants to do something so you see some of these actors that make themselves or celebrities that make themselves feel good oh so and so donated $500,000 for the campaign of not to have guns yeah good luck with that good luck with that good luck good luck stopping a 500 billion doll industry with $500,000 good luck pal why is he doing it why is he do first of all i' be surprised if it's really his money I'd be surprised if it's really his money second the real reason it's a tax benefit but it's good for publicity why it shows he cares what cares look he's writing a check for $500,000 yeah but when you have a hundred million $500,000 it's like five cents but even so the reality is he's not writing it because he cares so much he's writing it simply because he wants more money the guy that has 100 million wants 200 million the guy that has 200 million want 400 million the people that are inviting them for the White House don't actually care what do they care about more publicity good publicity look wow he picked up the baby oh look wow he hugged the guy that his daughter died he must really care no he just wants good pictures for media when are we going to wake up and realize that the world is full of it full of it rabotai full of it I've seen this my whole life and it's not going to change once in a while you have a hero who's the hero the guy that stood at the door and let all the kids out and M skin died they shot him up and made holes into the guy that guy kid why he did something about it he did something about it people that do something about it they care but how many do have people that do something about it if it doesn't have much money to do with it no one cares and that's the reality sometimes you see these nonprofit organizations have a mission statement we care about yeah but you also care about the fact that this nonprofit organization gives you a half a million dollars a year in benefits and another million dollars in salary and another half a million dollars under the table and you have so many benefits that by then anybody would care the enemies also care for that kind of money that's why you see 98% 98 cents out of every single dollar for the biggest nonprofit organizations in the world goes to the people running it does not go to the actual charity you donate a dollar 98 cents and in some cases 99 Cents go to the people at the top for their Choppers for their planes for their houses for their little things that they do on a side has nothing to do with the misin little poor kid you see in a commercial in the middle of Africa that still has the same fly in his head for the last 30 years has nothing to do with him why because no one cares no one cares but it's no different with unfortunately it's no different the families that has what happened to them a few months ago and a year ago and a year ago before that and 70 years ago and all of those things no one cares really why no one's doing anything about it why you think because you have a Holocaust Memorial you you care cuz you because you built a bunch of statues for a quarter million dollars that somebody else paid for and you have an event a gathering place where a bunch of people just sit there and just you know you know think about the event once a year they think about the event rest of the year you're milking money for the once a year event wait that makes you care no it doesn't make you care what would make you care stop it stop it from happening again stop us from making the same mistakes over and over again stop another holoc from happening stop another tragedy from happening do something about it before it happens after it happens your advice is useless they're already dead M but protect the next next terrorist from protect the kids from the next terrorist protect the nations from the next Holocaust oh you're too much oh you too of course there's gonna be some people no they care look they donated $10 million to so and so okay is it their money no it's somebody else's money they donated 10 million they kept the other 90 the world is full of it it's everywhere we have to understand that we're obligated to see through the cracks to see through the nonsense in a place there's no no leader you be the leader yeah but I'm only 20 yeah but I'm only 30 yeah but I don't speak the language yeah but I don't have any money yeah all the different excuses that the puts in your head doesn't make a difference yeah but I don't know him doesn't make a difference get to know him if he had a million dollars for your business would you get to know him yeah okay so give him a CD why it's worth more than a million because you could save his by get him to do CH and protect him from a real Holocaust Holocaust that's not just in this world a holocaust that's forever so yes it's all sad it's all sad hearing all these disasters but if you look at the statistics like I have you can see without prophecy without prophecy you can see that something much worse is coming not to be a bear of bad news laai but these statistics just keep getting uglier and uglier I already went over statistics early this week week I'm only going to tell you one thing just one thing today and then we're going to get into the sh and explain how we can actually be better how we can protect ourselves and the people around us and whoever wants to listen from disaster happening there's a list that comes out every few years of what's the most popular names popular names in America I'm sure they probably do it every year in Israel they do it I think every few years but this has a significance this has signific ific and the reason why it's because people first of all you they see that they're not so different from everyone else you know sometimes you'll see everybody call their kid David all of a sudden or sometime you see everybody call their kid Daniel or this name or that name and everybody thinks oh it's my unique name no has nothing to do with your nickname you 900,000 people also called their kid David that year you see that people think alike there's also a story in where uh Alexander mdon Alexander the great was told by Sam rash that is wants to uh go against him so he said okay let's go let's go uh destroy them he already took over the rest of the world what's left this little no big deal we could spit and drown it tiny little so he took his entire Army millions and millions of people so somebody came to for himself is coming who Alexander mdon Alexander the Great with all of his army with millions of people so what is a what is if if you told if you told Netanyahu hey all of the Arabs in the world two billion of them are coming to what is he gonna do they start doing what is he gonna do he's GNA call Donald Trump hey can you help us out if he has to call Obama too bring him back from the dead what is he gonna do Misan what is he gonna do what is what does do what if somebody has in somebody that knows that there's two worlds in one God not that there's one God there's two gods in one world like people think there's two worlds and one God this world and the next world and the same God controls both what does he do oh he's coming what's the Mitzvah let's welcome him what welcoming he's coming with an army with uh machetes and machine guns and tanks and uh F16 what do you what do you mean welcome he's coming to Vis let's go welcome him you think anybody said sir I don't think you understand nobody had nobody nobody had a peep why is talking he knows what he's talking about not like today I have a sh one place one time and the Rabbi says you know what let's delay the sh let's delay it a little bit not everybody came yet let's delay this you another 15 20 minutes one Hey listen have to teach them let's have a right now I'm here already I'm here already I have to learn I got to leave in 20 minutes starts yelling at the rabbi my I want to slap the guy it's not my K though so I can't slap him yet I slapped him during the sh though and the sh was looking at him half the time so Abel comes out with all of his people and the night before he's at the top of a mountain and Alexander the Great is at the top of the mountain the next more they both rest the next morning they go down the hill and they meet at the bottom of the hill both sides obviously Alexander has millions of people there a few people both sides stop Alexander gets off of his horse and starts walking towards no one knows what to do with unprecedented has never happened before what is he doing he just telling us to kill people he's getting off the horse he putting his life in danger for what they see him walking walking walking walking all the way to raban gel and he bows to him like you bow to God gives him honor like M you supposed to give to Hashem so everybody says uh your highness bound to some Rabbi some Jew what is this you're the leader of the of the world conquered every country what is this he says every night before I go to sleep there's an image that I see it's the same thing and every night I have the same dream and I see the image and I see the city which I'm seeing right now is jush and I I see also the image of the next Army that I'm supposed to fight and I see the battle take place and there a voice there a voice and as an image that tells me go fight this one go fight that one because of the scoot of what we're doing you're going to win the war and the image is his face his face his crown I see every night every every battle I want is because of whatever he's doing a so every night I see it every night I see it so after that Alexander ask shimik says heard you heard you have a bet mikdash for your god let's put my statue in there let's put my statue in there but if he tells him that he's going to make him into a statue what does do he says n yourness what statues they don't last they don't last well it's a statue okay here today it's gone tomorrow me break and may this and may that I have something better have something better we make a decree every boy born this year will name him after to you Alexander Alexander loved this wow what a Cav even my own people don't call their kids Alexander and that's how we got Alexander is part of the names that's very popular in why did I tell you this story thank you for correcting me abouton it's a descendant is his descendant because the list came out of the names in Israel just came out they said top most popular baby names top most popular baby names meaning this is telling you somewhat of an Insight of people's thinking the Next Generation what's coming I remember a few years ago it's more than a few years ago maybe 10 years ago somebody called their named their kid like like like the like button on Facebook so tells you that people are stupid so now what would you think is the most popular and if you saw it don't say is the most popular name number one name in Israel today for males I didn't see I think it's no it's not Nim that was the previous generation very very foolish people call their kids which is the enemy of hem it literally means enemy of hem that's the ignorance unfortunately ignorance is one of the biggest poisons we have in our generation but we here we have something worse than ignorance it actually got worse the name the number one name in Israel today is Muhammad number one name in Israel right now for babies is Muhammad do you understand where we're at do you understand it might as well call him n at least we have a chance he's connected to the Tora number one name is Muhammad means two things number one it's obviously a lot of Arabs in in Israel and they're number two it means they're having a lot more kids than we are number three we're doing nothing about it because half the government is terrorists in America it's not that much better in America many Jewish people have Christian names many Jewish people have Christian names and they don't even know it they call their kids names based on the Christian New Testament of the Christian thinking it's okay Whoever has a Christian name should make it a priority a priority to not only remove that name from their life but to make sure that he does it or she does it as soon as possible M shows up and you have a name like uh like Jesus or something like that or like John or like Paul or like any one of these names from the New Testament it's not going to look that good not going to look that good the saddest part is that many of these people actually have Jewish names and just don't use it why they're embarrassed of their Jewish names like I used to be I'm also a victim of this too the stupidity I was also stupid at some point still trying to do TR for my stupidity I took I my name is youron but in in the business world you start telling Americans your 20- minute conversation of how to pronounce it they'll make they'll say every other name except the right one even to this day people send me emails you're asking me for help they're sending me emails oh Rabbi you know whatever whatever this it almost 90% of the emails misspell the name it's it's it's it's m funny Reuben Ruby Yuri Yari I don't understand you're writing me an email the email itself says my name you can't write the same thing it's it's Insanity what can we do let's make a why because in a business where I said you know what let's save some time let's take off the first two letters yon is y a r o n let's take out the first two letters run run but by the way it's not good to have a short name according to the cabala it's not good to have a short name it mean short life uh so if you have a Jewish name use it that's what hasm knows you by and your last name is insignificant and Judaism there really isn't such a thing as our last name that's only something that's a modern Creation in the previous generations there was no such thing as a last name your last name was whoever your father was so it would be if let's say your father was ab and your name is bet bet that's your last name that's how we know which there if there's three bet we know that this one is bet abah this one is betov this one is BET David that's how we know it's three different that's you see but if you are one of those people that every other day you're adding a new name to your life a lot of people like to add every time they have a problem they have a flat tie they want to add another name to their life they they got a call they adding another name they have a Asma they had another name Amos they a uh they lost some money in the stock market they had another name Donald they had another every day they add a new name problem with adding all these names first of all it's not DOT it's not the it's not what the biggest in the world recommend it's just they told you maybe you could add one name one they didn't think that you start being a in this and you have 37 names sometimes people write me an email half the email is the name the other half is what they want just to remember the name I have to like M I have to like learn it learn the name to remember the name so you have to know that if you have multiple names you have to go by all of them it's not just like oh yeah really my name is uh Stacy but the real name is Stacy Stevenson uh Wilma Sarah RKA Aon Moshe David scho Smith no no you have to what you have multiple names you have to use all of them you have to use all of them when you say somebody give you a blessing I say the full name so better not necessarily to have all these names if if you have it already said but uh you have to use all of them also when you you know name kids people become a uh a tradition mostly in the ashkanazi world some have done it like some of the biggest in history have done it also but today it's become more of a modernization of of of of us uh people give their kids middle names many of them do it because it creates Less Problems why because as soon as a kid is born everybody wants the kid to be named after them and if you if let's say that you want to name him after the the the the uh the husband's family and the wife's family was like oh putting on you you're out of the will we hate you yeah we never liked you anyway what happened it's just a kid gonna have another kid no how come it's not this one oh it's because you really never likeed me it's one kid you don't want to have kids anymore not because you don't want kids because you don't want to deal with the headache of of the families you name it after the wife's family oh craziness you many craziness happens because of all these names so a little solution is you would think it's a solution people started adding middle names so one name from The Father's Side one name from the mother's side you think that would solve the problem not a chance why oh how come his name is first his family they're not so good we supported you more we should be the first name he should be the middle name it's always a problem why why no T when there's no T there's only problems when there's no tah there's only problems just like the bll the bull that they threw yadik it says has nothing in it what does it mean has nothing in it all it has is snakes and scorpions when a house has no Torah what does it have all it has is snakes and scorpions that's it oh has snakes and scorpions not like if there's no Torah there's something else that good no if there's no Tor all it has snakes and scorpions fights dilemas another that's all you have and people keep trying to you know no no but maybe if I make more money it's going to solve the problem or maybe if I get married it's going to solve the problem or maybe if we're going to have another kid it's going to solve the problem or maybe if we just throw out this kid we're going to solve the problem and they keep trying to solve the problem with everything except the solution the one cure that we have is T and no one wants to use it so the Cure is here for all of these attacks for all of these disasters for all it's called T now many people could tell you listen I learned tah but I still have problems I didn't say that it solves all your problems I said it has a solution the Torah has the solution meaning the Torah is going to tell you who's running the world once you understand who's running the world you already know where it's coming from so already knowing having a diagnosis already help us have to battle the second thing is the Torah is going to teach you how to deal with it how to deal with these problems that you have with its financial problems marriage problems and so on and so forth and this is the things that we need to learn the problem that I see and this is not a new problem unfortunately it's just getting worse every day we've gone over this entire series is that there are some people that learn T but you see them as people not really changing at all in some cases even getting worse how could this be how could the same Torah that take some people out of G and puts them in ganeden the same Tor instead is used in puts these people in G instead how how could it be so this is this Mish we'll talk a little bit about that so is 59 it says [Music] translation seven traits characterize a golm and seven a learned one meaning seven characteristics that characterize an uncultivated person a explained to us is something that's like incomplete undeveloped undeveloped wisdom and seven character traits for a wise person a learned person just give him the whole dish so you guys can stop a learned person does not begin speaking before one who is greater than he is in wisdom or in years he does not interrupt the words of his fellow he does not answer impetuously meaning he doesn't break into the conversation oh yeah yeah I know the I know what you're talking yeah yeah yeah I got it I got it the guy didn't finish the sentence yet he's already completes his sentence without uh anybody asking him to do it he asks relevant questions and he replies appropriately he discusses first things first and last things last and about something he has never heard of he says I never heard this and he acknowledges the truth sees AIT goes that's AIT and the reverse of all of these seven traits characterize the golm that uncultivated person so theat you don't need my help with it's very simple it means a lot but obviously the series and what we're trying to do is to learn in the the details behind the details and how could such a learning help us not only save ourselves from Holocaust both a physical and a spiritual one but also can help save the world if only people would actually Implement these things so first thing says that there is a difference there's a difference difference between a Golem and a the difference the term Golem is an uncultivated person which is meaning it's someone that was given a god-given talent given intelligence he has a brain in his head he's not Shalom he doesn't have any some type of uh retardation or deformity or or any type of thing he's no person he has a brain in his head just like everybody else that Brink and think some people have a special ability with certain subjects over others but in general hasem gives an equal playing field for all but this person decided that he's not going to utilize his intellect decided he's just going to get by it's on the coast what there's 24 hours in a day I mean I'll study for an hour a day but you have 24 though okay no 45 minutes no no just went down no no go go I supposed to go up okay okay we'll go back to an hour okay it's like he doesn't matter what you tell him stay the same want to Coast want to chill out want to hang out want to enjoy life yeah but you have a brain that brain can you could create worlds with that brain become big could be a somebody successful yeah yeah but maybe when I get older I get older I get married now I just want to relax a little bit I have it easy right now I me it's okay what the problem why why you pressuring me says this person 126 say this is like an unformed vessel what's an unformed vessel no one has put any work into it to perfect it just like this Golem did not perfect himself intellectually and morally and socially he just leaving it as is whatever I got I got yeah but if you work at it can be better it's enough whatever I have is you should what doesn't it say well who's happy someone's happy with a share all of a sudden they remember that they know that you should be happy what you have no okay that's what I got from has that's what I got what's the problem what hasem gave me 100,000 that's it I'm going to sell 100,000 gave me a million I a million hem gave me a wife a wife gave you one kid one kid yeah but maybe you could try for another kid maybe you could try for uh happier marriage not just to have a wife like she's a uh a statue in the house maybe have a happy marriage too it's not just getting married is half the battle staying married is the other half it's okay it's okay you know this lethargic mentality which unfortunately is a very very big issue in this generation they call the Millennials or whatever they want to call them the the mishna calls them Golem also has a name for them Golem how do you know someone's a Golem you ask him something give me K give me something tell me what whatever it doesn't make a difference about something could be T it could be your business whatever it is that you're doing in your life what is it you do in your life oh I work on Wall Street oh I work in real estate oh am a plumber whatever it is that you do with your life give me something all of a sudden they're like confused what do you mean but this is what you do all day you don't know anything about what you do what about things you don't do confused they don't know how to answer they don't know how to hold the convers they're confused he ask him okay can you show me something oh yeah and he starts looking the papers everywhere there's a posted here there's a post that there there's no organization whatsoever in their life I just like everything is everywhere how do you function like this oh when I need it I find it when I need it I find it that's the typical respon when I need it I find it I remember in college I went to uh bigton University in Upstate New York and uh I had these uh two roommates in the first semester I mean cleaning or providing anything of any substance for the good of the room was not part of what they were taught if they were there you knew it if there was food it didn't matter if it was theirs they took it I'd bring food to after there was a break I go to my parents my mom would give me enough food for a semester pretty much within two three days gone what happened to the food oh it was yours who else was it be there's three of us you didn't bring food he didn't bring food who else brought the food oh it was yours hungry I was hungry I was hungry why you want me to starve what kind of person are you they blame you now it's your fault disorganized confused they function in properly they're like out of place they don't know where who what when and how it's like an unfinished product like I remember you know when we do different uh different products you have you have to get samples so the manufacturer send you samples along the way before he gives you the finished product has to show you okay so we did this and you get the S goes no this is wrong this is right this is this and you keep going back and forth with it's the CDs or it's posters or things we did in the past and so on and so forth now when you get the the the product and it's unfinished you look at it's like I can never sell this I can never give this to anybody it's unfinished the head is missing the arm is missing eyes are missing it's no writing something it's a Golem it's unfinished Mish is telling us here this is people people that do not develop the talents that hasem gave them some gave the brain they don't develop it they stay exactly the same but he's not talking about somebody that didn't know know he learned and he's a doctor now oh if he's a doctor then he developed no is not what we're talking about not talking about if you have intellect to uh you know to become an architect or a doctor or a lawyer and you passed a bunch of tests has nothing to do with what we're talking about when DAV in Psalm 139 verse 16 says your eyes meaning he's talking to hem your eyes saw my unshaped form what unshaped form he had millions of dollars he was a king of Israel every wife is aad what's the problem what do you mean unformed is unformed Masia is unformed what do you mean telling us has nothing to do with money has nothing to do with money has nothing to do with your profession has nothing to do with whether you're a doctor or a lawyer or a king it has to do with your midot it has to do with your character trait are you still lazy are you still angry are you still cheap are you still a person that has 1% emuna and 99% nothing it's empty it's a hole that has nothing just emptiness 1% when do we have when we see the money in the bank if there's no money in the bank no says I have has to do he says why I have to work on my mid on the other hand is a learned person who uses these these virtues that Hashem gave him whatever he gave him whatever basic material he was given he developed it it's like you have one guy was given a a pile of clay pile of clay the other guy was get a pile of clay one guy says okay this pile of clay is like a little mountain he pokes two eyes in it you put a smiley face on it finished finished you put a high eyes nose mouth he made a something that kind of looks like an arm but not really something that looks like a leg but not so really that's it finished and he put a couple stripes on the top to make it look at his hair that's a good meaning there's something there but everybody know it's a Golem it's unfinished the other guy the he put the shape he cut here he cut there he took this piece off that piece off it's unnecessary it's too much it's too little it's this he put color on it he heated it up he twisted a lot of different things how long it take a lot longer but when you see it finished looks like a real human being that's that's a what do we learn here what do we learn here we learn something that if you understand it it changes everything we understand when you tell somebody do you know anybody that say do you know somebody that's a automatically you're thinking about yeah who knows the by heart who knows the most things by heart who gives who has a long beard you're thinking about who knows the most you're thinking that a is someone wisdom is based on intellect how much you know you go to a guy's house you see a whole wall over here A whole wall over there a whole wall over there it's like a little bet mikdash of even though they're all brand new no one actually ever opened them still you see a lot of so oh this guy look how muchim he has you know how many I I tell people you know it's you have to do CH you know how many I have I said good you have you have books good you have to read them though buying them is half the battle it's nice to have it's good gave youim gave you books half the battle is buying them the other half is reading them the other half is a little more difficult the other half is a little more diff you have to read the books a lot of people buy books every day they buy books you see people put on the internet oh yeah look I just added this new book to my collection they announced to the whole world of how many books they buy why you don't see this I'm the only one that sees this stuff why I'm the only one has every day I see somebody posting look I got this book or that book you see the guy got a boxem he has money for the books a box full of books you got this book and that book and this book and that book and you're seeing the same pictures regularly regular already six months a year two years the guy every so often has another box of books what don't you see you don't see any change in a person he has a library full of books but the same n has hasn't change nothing changed same bad midot same stinginess same excuses same laziness same person nothing changed I have a couple of people that's say it's very difficult very difficult they have I think they have maybe three or four times the amount of books I have now I try when I try I'm not uh perfect with this but I try that whatever books I have I try to read them and we try I have a few people seriously I think I haven't seen it but from what they tell me pretty much they have everything that I have plus two to three times more like a library of books but yet the same questions nothing changed the same no no no still bad still everything nothing changed they tell oh yeah yeah I read it I remember I have that book I have that book read it read the book sometimes people read a little bit of the books but they're like you know they read a page here they skip 50 another page here they skipped 70 they page here they skip another 30 oh yeah yeah it went over that book why you went over that book five pages not going over the book there's 400 Pages you have to read all 400 of them and even the 400 is not enough why you have to actually understand what it says not just read it to tell people I read it people you know yeah I read that book new what did you learn I don't remember what do you mean you you read a whole book you don't remember what you learned from the book why'd you read it then you read the whole book yeah yeah I read the whole book look look you open the book I read it okay no so what did you learn from the book no I don't remember what do you mean you don't remember how do you not remember nothing you don't remember anything oh yeah he said something about M I said everything in the Tor say something about mosu it's called Five Books of Moses if it doesn't say something about mosu it's not SE Tora what it doesn't say m oh yeah it says RAB ohaaa is a guy namea nothing changed nothing changed you ask the guy how do you have why do you have all these books sit down take your time understand what you're reading it's not a race if it takes you 30 times as much time to understand let it take you 30 times as much time if it takes you a whole week to read one page but you understand the page let it take a week who are you racing against what do you think just having the books makes your your house Holy by the way there is a there is actually an opinion by the that specifically with gar specifically with gar you should not have any tractates of you're not reading in your house meaning you shouldn't buy the whole set before you actually buy one book at a time two books at a time three books at a time don't don't have too many unread ones in your house it's not good it's a it's a specifically with it may be with other books but I know specifically with so we learned something extraordinary here we learned that the word a learned person has nothing to do with knowledge if you tell somebody yeah every today anybody that is in favor of wigs holy of holies he's friends with angels they G anybody that's okay with wigs he's the anybody that uh says any p on on a his own opinions usually or he tells you what the said about cabala oh yeah it's the holy of holy even know kiss him like kiss this isia everybody's mashia by the way every day is a mashia you guys notice this you guys don't get those emails every day is a mashia there's at least there's at least a few thousand of them in the world today lot of it also says at the end of day there going to be a lot of follow them there's always a fool there always a fool so it says wisdom is not based on knowledge wisdom is based on midot wisdom is based on your character traits not on your knowledge why because only your midot only your character character traits can prove if you're wise because of the knowledge that you have it's very deep if you learned some books but you're still the same lion giraffe uh you know hippopotamus you've learned or you didn't learn nothing changed doesn't make you wise you can just tell people you read those books T is someone that used the Torah used the wisdom from the Tor and perfected himself he learned about mosenu not just the story oh mosenu was humble I have to be humble mosu was generous I have to be generous mosu was stopped being angry he he never got angry again after same thing he didn't just learned of the story of M was great he learned how can I be like that's and that's why anyone that's a real is called what does me he's still learning he's still learning but a go is the exact opposite is one learn or if he learns he just goes one year out the other why like I'm fine I'm fine as I am he's not interested in developing himself taking advantage of an opportunity he's fine fine everything's fine what's wrong with me no tell me what's wrong with me tell me what's wrong what's wrong nothing's wrong everything is fine everything is fine and this is a sin why hasem didn't bring you to the world to be a Golem hasem brought you into the world to be mosu hasem brought you to the world to be Aron AEM brought you to the world to be hasem brought brought you to the world to be mashia how do we know is a source in the book of Psalm chapter 105 verse says says do not touch my anointed ones M and my prophets don't harm don't touch my Messiahs and don't harm my prophets but we know that mashiach is a prophet so why is it mentioned twice in the same verse first and foremost we should learn that one of the things that theim continuously make a mistake is about the the word mashia the word mhia is not an actual person mhia is an activity something that took place and we actually learn it from this week's in chapter 28 verse 41 tells to it says with them you shall dress Aron he's talking about all the vestments of theim and so on with them you shall dress Aon your brother and his sons with him and you shall anoint him inaugurate them and sanctify them so here we don't see wait just said mashak mashak comes from the same word mashia that's the root of the word mashia so what does mashia actually mean anointed chosen one why is what's what's the relevance of mashia the actual activity of mashak is you would put oil on them you will inaugurate them by putting oil on them there was a special holy oil that was only allowed to be put on the Kim and also on the on the king and that's when David before he became DAV the prophet came to his father he said oh one of your sons hasem sent me to inaugurate one of your sons one of your sons is the new king of Israel it wasn't like today there's no election one of your sons is the uh king of isra he's taking over the position from Sha Shaul is getting thrown out he's made a sin he made a problem decided he's no longer King one of your sons he shy one of your sons is is the new king okay so is had some great Sons each one of them was goodlooking was a tall strong so maybe it's the oldest one so he tries to take the oil the special oil pours it on his head doesn't come out the oil is Defying Gravity it will not leave the bottle okay it's not him tries to put the oil on the Second Son the oil again it's open everything's open oil stays in place doesn't leave the bottle third son fourth son every one of the sons nothing oil will not leave the bottle the prophet says to isai says it's not them you have another son go no no it's it's my sons he goes wait the made a mistake you have another son oh yeah you know there is another son he's in the he's with the Sheep he's with the Sheep he's not uh nothing special little short guy red hair not even sure if he's really my son because of what happened and how he was brought to the world bring him bring him as soon as David enters the room the oil is on the other side of the room it's on the corner of the room the oil flies out of the bottle miraculously and David flies in the air miraculously in the two joint and that's why the says this is what you read with in ones KES you you read the and you read all these different things fores and this one of the says this we know is the hand of something that hasem did it's time to celebrate what is there was no doubt that the was a why a miracle just happened look what happened oil went against gravity David went against gravity everything so Mas comes from the word Mash so that's how the mashiach is selected it's not an election no one is going to have a doubt for all of those people that are wondering if their Rabbi is the Messiah if he died if he's still alive he's not the Messiah why if he was the Messiah it would be no doubt just like there was no doubt that mosenu was the prophet of all prophets because hasem promised I'll talk to you in front of everyone just like hasem said David everyone will know everyone knew why look what happened no one said hey no no this is uh he's not look what happened we saw it with our own eyes even more so at the culmination of this world when the mssiah arrives is not going to be some people agrees mashia and some people disagrees mashia everyone is going to know this is mashia but some will choose to fight him still even though they know he's mashiah some will choose to fight him will choose to fight them they don't care about what the Torah says about the losing they don't believe in the Torah they believe there some guy he calls himself mashiach we're g to kill him why he's ruining our he's telling us we have to do CH so says says don't touch my mashia and don't harm my prophets why does it say mashia and Prophet if both are the same a mhia is a prophet a prophet could be a mhia not all prophets a mashiach but the Messiah is a prophet so why does it say the the two Shalom gave me this phenomenal what's the here he's not talking about the Messiah per se says don't touch my messiah's plural and don't touch my prophets he's telling you is two different things the prophets the one thing don't mess with them but my mashia also don't me mess with who's these mashia babies little kids don't touch them why every single one of them has an opportunity to be the mashiach and every single child has an opportunity to be the mashiach you have no right to remain a Golem you have no right to remain ail a fool you have no right to remain undeveloped you must develop yourself why hem says you have a potential to be mashia you have potential to be mashia you have potential to be the best you have no right to Coast you came to work in this world in the Book of Job job tells us a person what was he born for to work what work on Wall Street and real estate no to work for hem to work for hem how work work till you get to become mashia work you become the most religious person most connected person to to hasem that you know that's a a is someone that understands this that heard this is now going to start doing chuva real chuva not coasting chuva where he's just a that keep Shabbat he like Shabbat because he gets to eat 19 meals he can gain extra 20 pounds every week or she can gain 25 pounds every week every week she looks like she's more pregnant even though there's no kids and she's not even married she like Shabbat though why you like Shabbat you have to be mashia you have to be so how to be is you have to start taking this knowledge you learn from the sh and start applying it that's why I tell you guys always write stuff down why there's no way you can remember everything I'm going to say I don't remember everything I'm going to say you have to write stuff down if you watch a shi multiple times it's even better why is a lot of information it's a lot of information is not like is not like if let's say for example I tell you right now okay is you're not allow to drive on Shabbat it ended you accepted the information finished you don't have to delve on it you don't have to think about it are not allowed to drive on Shabbat I tell you oh you're not allowed to play with your phone on Shabbat now turn on your phone on Shabbat not allowed to touch a pen on Shabbat now let the write on Shabbat not allow all these different things okay information enters finished you're not going you're have to think about it again it enters accepted finished that's Al people love studying Al it's easy why information comes in information enters accept it finished all you got to do is remember it m is world's aart why because m is not I have to tell you okay you can't be angry he oh can't be angry enter okay I'm never going to be angry again Al Al it works that way okay can't be cheap not alled to be cheap okay I'm not cheap anymore I'm generous who wants money have who wants money who wants no V works that way m is something you must have to think about and meditate over and think about and meditate on and think about and meditate on and review and review and review and review for seven years for each character tra years for each character trait was a huge he said it's much more difficult for me to fix one mid one character trait than to finish the entire sh and finish the entire if you do you finish the sh once every seven years approximately it's even more difficult to fix one mid why it's not I just learn about anger and I'm no longer angry it's not like I just learn about lazy I'm no longer lazy it's not like I just learn about generosity and all of a sudden I'm the most generous guy I know I took food off my plate and gave it to a homeless guy no it takes time it takes effort that's a that's a why he learned it and he's trying to find different ways to apply this knowledge apply this new wisdom that's a and that's how we know that wisdom is not based on knowledge but rather it's based on midot if it was based on knowledge if wisdom was purely based on knowledge the whole mishna would look very different why it say that a learned person is someone that has a lot of information that's it end of mishna just read a lot of books that's it finished unfortunately there's many people in the world that have read a lot of books but are worse than horses plenty of people people that read tons of books some of them have written many books you look at him you look at the pig same thing they still have no manners they still eat like uh like they never saw food before in their life you still ask them for for a favor they make it seem like you want them to give birth all types of things M it's like I know to deal with this person why but you wrote 10 books already what's wrong with you didn't apply the information WR it cuz I know the information now not because I'm applying it they know the information they read it in a book but it's superficial it's like telling a story about Harry Potter you know going into the story and believing that some kid actually really flew in the air on a broom or something it's nice whatever it's entertainment and that's why I always tell people sometimes people tell me oh yeah you know I listen to what you said in this clip or this sh I was very offended so Shalom I offended a Jew Shalom what did I say oh yeah you said oh I said oh that's said it yeah but uh it's not right what do you mean it's not right go tell God what do you tell you go complain to hasem it's not my fault he didn't ask me a permission yeah but I was very offended that you said that uh you know somebody that's Shabbat you can't drink their wine if they give it to you because my father doesn't keep Shabbat so what I can't drink is wine it's very offensive what you're saying I said in the beginning I tried to expl explain to them this this but sometimes the person's ail is like a timble it's like somebody that's fool he just doesn't understand he tell them tell them tell them doesn't doesn't matter what you tell them you can tell him this way that way top bottom left right in out north west east doesn't make a difference you could tell the guy in every way in English in Hebrew in every language possible start inventing languages talk to him in in emojis talk to him in emoj he still doesn't understand the guy seal doesn't understand so what do you do then I said I'm sorry listen I can't help you I can't help you why you don't understand it's not that I didn't try I tried no I'm very offended listen I'm not looking for fans and that's usually the response I'm not looking for fans because they always threaten oh I'm not going to watch anymore don't watch will you do me a favor not looking for fans oh not going to donate you never did before you never did now who cares don't donate I'm going to tell people tell people what's what what are you trying to tell I'm not looking for fans this is not a talk show it's not a talk show I'm not David Letterman I'm not looking for Ratings whether there's going to be a 100 people that watch it or 100 million people that watch it I did what I can the rest of it is up to Hashem you want to better yourself listen to the Sho and apply it you want to remain AAL don't watch stay exal it's plenty of placing getting home for you too what's the problem you think I'm working fense and that's the problem when you tell some of these things to most people that speak today and some of them call themselves rabbis and try listen what you said is very offensive what happens M seconds later oh I'm sorry I didn't mean it it I didn't do no I'll come out with a new video and I'll fix it and some of them come out with like a correction letter yes what I said in this video about Shabbat may have been offensive to people but you know it's in Al but I didn't mean to and I'm sorry what do you mean what are you sorry about is that what God Said or not is it your opinion or is it God's opinion if it's your opinion you should say I'm sorry if it's God's opinion you have no right to say I'm sorry but why do people say I'm sorry because they're looking for fans they're looking for popularity contest they know that if they say I'm sorry more people going to oh look he's so sensitive look he's he's he's one with the crowd he really wants people to be attentive and watch him yeah he wants more gener he wants you to be more generous that's all he wants he cares less about whether you do chva or not just do chva one thing give more money that's why all religions all religions have one common Mitzvah whether it's idolatry from the Christians idolatry from the cow in India idolatry from the snakes idolatry from the Buddhas idolatry from everywhere even Muslims everyone every religion has the same mitvah in common one Mitzvah what give money AES that has the truth doesn't need to care about why need to care about CH that's what every single Prophet came to the world to do he told do Chu every Prophet no exceptions every single Prophet came to the world to tell am do chuv what they do many times kill them did he care no why I came here to do CH that's it if that's why I came to the world to help people do CH that's it that's it but they're going to kill you so what they kill me they're not going to like you so what they don't like me so what it's not a popularity contest you're not looking for readings you're not looking for for YouTube views you're not even looking for donations you need it AEM will provide it and that's what people simply just don't understand if you want to be a speaker you have to understand you have a huge responsibility you can't just speak freely and think you could just give your opinion if your opinion is not one with God's opinion you're allowed to State it you're not allowed to State it but unfortunately today all we hear is people's opinions people's opinions of what the really meant even though the said wigs not allowed said not allowed yeah but maybe man it's allowed we don't know but he said not allowed yeah but maybe he meant allowed but he said not allowed though yeah but maybe just maybe just think about be open for a second no come on don't be so much just be open for a second maybe he meant it's lowed nobody said not allowed though but maybe meant it's the same thing 500 times it'sit they won't understand not allow it's idolatry it's natua it's a million and a half other thing not allowed but maybe it same question 500 times in different ways they Chang the language no but the laich said it's all no he didn't say it's allowed he said something else is allowed idolatry is not allowed for any Pake no one say it's allowed and everybody wants to say this why because it makes you popular my Rob said one time listen you want to beor can make make youor in a week in a week everything come out with writing or lecture about how great wigs are that's it come out with a lecture tell everybody it's allowed to do wigs and tell everybody that all you need to do isul just come up with anything you want and just call by some's name no one's going to check anyway make a string make a this finish every time you go Halls will filled up be filled up holes will be filled up they'll call you Kad they'll kiss your hand everything and just tell themad Babu wow it's an honor to meet you that's it that's all you got to do in this generation that's all you got to do everybody's aad everybody no one has to do and everybody's allowed to wear wigs the longer the better wear it to the floor show them show them what you really got show them what you really got so that's this that's this generation that's this generation everybody that wants to be popular talks about either the easy mitv that even the going do because it's just common sense or they talk about things that make people feel good about themselves but in reality no one does Chua so now the we learned that a a learned person is not just someone with knowledge but someone that actually applies this knowledge we have to see where it's used where it's used in the Torah so the next part of the mishna says says there's these seven character traits there's these seven character traits that either make somebody just put over there these seven character traits that is either going to make a person a or Gul same price and the mishna is teach teaching us that the manifestation of these seven character traits will make you one or the other these seven things and then it starts doing something that's unusual for our society which is it starts talking about the seven character traits in a positive perspective meaning instead of it says seven character traits for a Golem and for a learned one and the Learned person does this and the Learned person does this and learned person do this learn learn learn learn learn the does all these things doesn't say anything about the Golem why number one because the Golem is the exact opposite which is what it says at the end and number two the one of the things that the tries to teach us is to always look from the positive perspective of things when it says that um you're supposed to teach t and has to be sweet for people you have to look at things in know like a cup half full type of mentality instead of a cup half empty that's the other argument the more direct the more direct meaning of what I'm trying to tell you what raai is trying to say is that in reality the the the the fool the golm it's nothing to anyway there's no point of talking about him he's not learning learning this Mish the Golem is not learning this Mish Golem is uh I don't know playing PlayStation or something he's not learning this m why even bother talking about him we already know that everything that he doesn't he wants a shortcut the is who have to wor why because that's what we're trying to be we're trying to be like the not the GOL gol don't learn the M that's how you be a gol don't learn the Mish and don't apply it finish you don't have to do anything just don't learn and don't do or learn and don't do whichever one you want learn meaning you waste your time and not do or don't learn either way you win as a Golem but you want to be ah this is what you have to do you have to learn and you have to do so it says the following first character trait of a is he does he does not begin speaking in front of someone that's greater than him in wisdom and in years this is something that's almost unfounded in our society today why Everyone likes to be heard some people talk just to hear themselves talk do you ever see those people you ever meet somebody like this they talk so much not because they care about anything just want to hear themselves talk there was one time a guy in a Yesa didn't let anybody talk half hour 45 minutes an hour a table full of people it's not a lecture it's not a lecture table full of people every time somebody starts talking he starts talking over him oh no no but this but you don't know what talk one of those people very strong personality if you will and one of the big was there and he sat there learning his but he overheard this guy talking the whole time for an hour or two hours and then after two hours the guy says oh you know what what I just told you I actually heard it from Rabbi soand so and immediately the said liar liar he never said it everybody was shock shocked whoa he didn't say anything for 2 hours now you're calling the guy a liar why on this point how do you know how do you know he's lying he's naming a big Rabbi why he's lying in the rabbi's name the guy said what for the why why why you call all of a sudden the guy went into his little shell became a turtle again what happened why you call me a liar go liar he never said it to you CU how does the r know he never said it to me he said it to me he goes no way two hours you never let one person talk talk how you can ever let a rabbi tell you anything there's no way you heard it from him sometimes people just like the sound of their own voice or despise everybody else's whichever one comes first but they talk and they talk and they talk it says the sign of a a character trait that we all have to work on is to learn how to not speak in front of someone that's higher wisdom than us higher in years than us where do we learn this from there several examples in a The Book of Leviticus chapter 10 verse to9 Moshe rebukes the two sons the two remaining Sons son ofar he rebukes them why does he rebuke them they burned the goat on rodes instead of eating it but in reality all they did is they learned from they did the right thing they're right for doing it they follow Al and they listened to what their father Aon said this what you're supposed to do but mhe thought that what they did was a mistake but they didn't respond who responded Aon responded anden told Moshe that no no this is actually the right thing to do and Moshe without being embarrassed for a moment said oh doctor you're right you're 100% right I forgot I forgot hasm actually said this specific thing you're 100% right M admitted to his mistake and remained quiet they didn't respond to Moshe and now they didn't need to so ask why didn't elazar andar respond to Moshe why do they have their father why is their father always going to be there for them says teaching us this lesson what's someone who doesn't speak in front of somebody that's higher wisdom than them first and foremost their father was present who are we to speak if this giant is next to us if he sees something wrong he's going to say something Aon is here forget about the fact that he's our father Aon is here is a CO we're going to talk and he's not going to talk Shalom I'm going to talk and not my Rabbi Shalom yeah but he's rebuking you doesn't make a difference he's here if he sees something wrong in what he's saying he'll deal with it if it's right he won't say anything if it's wrong he'll say something second thing is who are we to respond to a rabbi like this and tell him he's wrong he's he's a Rabbi thear says You must fear your Rabbi like you fear God fear your Rabbi like you fear God people yell at their rabbis today you tell Rabbi tell them listen you gotta learn Tor you gotta do hey Rabbi relax relax Rabbi relax take it easy take a chill pill come back to me tomorrow I'm not going to donate any money the rabbi is turning to an employee and not even a good one they tell him what to do like he's the cleaning lady it's not uh they don't treat him with any respect or anything not that you should disrespect cleaning people but the point I'm trying to say is that people treat the rabbi like he's a slave says who are we to tell our Rabbi mhu anything he said kados even if he's wrong kados why he's the rabbi he has much higher wisdom than us of course he thought about what he said before he said it yeah but it's wrong it doesn't make a difference it's not possible that we're right and he's wrong yeah but you know it's doesn't make a difference he's the rabbi later on maybe at a different time we'll ask him in a different way by the way we saw this maybe but now he said something he's rebuking us accept it do chuva accept it and do chuva so the sons of Aon stayed quiet and for that to get reward thaton actually spoke on their behalf and they actually ended up being right because it will be disrespectful to speak in front of their father all and also in front of their teacher m takes it a step further says even if you know Tor you learn T all day all night you you're in a 100 people 500 people th000 people whatever it is you're talking somebody's saying something something you have a discussion the guy next to you is a bigger than you it's no it's not like it's down no he he's learning for 20 years you're learning for 19 years he's bigger than you why if you're you let him talk why be a learner learn from the wise learn from the wise don't speak so much his incisive mind is no competition to one who has the authentic tradition meaning you learned for 19 years he learned for 19 and a half he learned for 20 you learned from some Rabbi about what the rabbi said he learned from the rabbi you learn through a third party you learned from the actual party different world different world a lot of people like to mention different rabbis names oh yeah I heard so and so this and I heard so and so this and I a lot of people heard okay but did he write it anywhere and some of the biggest mistakes are made about people Mish hearing things and that's why we don't learn Al from hearing things we learn Al from books oh no but if you would have heard speech that thei said about wigs you would know if you would have heard what so and so said about this you would know you did he write it anywhere yeah he wrote that it's okay to wear a wig over yeah but he also said it's you should wear a too he said you also wrote that too no no no no let's focus on the other one let's F cuz he said something else in the speech where where is it said in the speech where's it how come nobody can find the speech how come nobody can find a speech the letter we can find for both sides but that's why you have to know what actually was written the other thing that the say in page 33a that it's not only not to speak in front of someone that's greater in wisdom than you but also not to speak in front of someone that's also older than you older than you has more life experience than you CU of course we're not talking about somebody that's a uh you know is just an old crazy old man that never learned how to read talking about you know B you learned he learned by default he has not only Superior knowledge theoretical knowledge but also experience life experience knowledge and even if he didn't he's not you should still have respect for him where do we see this from 31 verse when was no question no one ever thought was sadik even his name was a lie came and accused Yu after 20 years of working for him he accused him of stealing this that all the everything under the son he accused them and it says in verse 27 andov answered and he told lean meaning he waited for him to finish he didn't interrupt him even though everything he said is sewer everything that he said is wrong he's accusing him of this accusing him of this he's lying he a it he's older than me he's older than me let me let let him finish let him finish what he says so here we see that it's not necessarily just the uh the uh wisdom it's also age in general when they say respect your elders it's not just to get up on the bus and let them sit it's a lot more than that which they don't even do this generation they don't even do this generation just get Rashi and me take it a step further it says even further than wisdom even further than age between rabbis between rabbis how you going to measure who a big he wrote a book he wrote a book he studied for 20 years he studied for 20 years he has a beard he has a beard beard doesn't make you smart by the way the goat has one too free so how how you going to decide who who's going going to speak first page seven says who has more students who has more students why because we learned from David in Psalm 11999 I learned from my students from all my students I learned from everybody everybody was my student every I'm sorry I was the student of everyone anyone want to teach me something I learned from them learn from everyone a good Rabbi learns from everyone someone that has the most amount of students also has the most amount of teachers why because all the students ask questions one student's asking about another one about another one about kosher another one about mid another one about everybody has questions another one now if you have six seven students then you're going to have six seven different people that you're going to learn from because they're going to ask you questions and even if you know the information it sharpens up your brain because you're not always the stuff is not always here if you don't think about it regularly it goes in the back of the brain but your student reminds you hey where do you put it you put it here or you put it here you could put it here if you want but it's not Mitzvah meaning nothing happens all you want to do if you put it over here is you're going to sign up to the zoo they're going to make you the new uh uh the new animal over there in the zoo the new KF ISF KF how isna in English KF Theo RH rhino rhino you go to the the guy from Cuba that's learning Hebrew is teaching the Hebrew speaker the RH the Rhino so if you put it feeling over here on the forehead over here or you go to the zoo they're going to make you Rhino why it's not a Mitzvah it's not a Mitzvah all you a little Rhino why because Tora says you have to put them between your eyes not between these eyes the eyes in your head the eyes over here you have to put theine over here and the box has to end right where your hairline is if you're bald then you have to remember where your hairline was if you put theine like many people if you put it feeling like many people put it on your forehead all you are is a rhino you didn't do MIT there's a lot of rhinos in the world a lot of rhinos feel over here though so if you don't if you don't see this you don't have students you don't see this stuff you think that uh maybe you're Rhino but when you have students you see them and you correct this one you correct that one it reminds you of the of where to put the it reminds you it reminds you all the questions that even if you learned it maybe you learned it last year 5 years ago 10 years ago 20 years ago the student asked you sharpening up your knowledge so a rabbi that has the most amount of students must have the most amount of wisdom why he has the most amount of questions to deal with he has the most amount of questions to deal with it's not easy so P so that's what the rash and say if there's two that are alike they both studied for 20 years they both have uh everything the same you have to look at who has more students who has more students that's the one that speaks first that's the one that is a uh the bigger the bigger why because he has more students that's why the says that I learned a lot from my Rabbi I learned a lot from my K but the most of what I learned I learned from my students so now the next thing that the M says is does not interrupt the words of his fellow do not interrupt him he listens as that's they're talking about something throughout the entire time that the other person is talking it's irrelevant of if he's a big or he's a fool or he's a rabbi or he's a stu it's irrelevant another person the will let him finish what he says he will never interrupt him even if what he says is wrong the will not interrupt him he listens without interrupting him waiting courteously until the speaker finishes his point and before refuting or commenting on what he says this is according to the r andu why why don't interrupt him today that's how you win a debate you interrupt everyone they highlight people on TV that know how to win a debate by interrupting everyone you see the two uh potential presidents the two Elites of the world they don't let the other guy finish at all not even one sentence they have to yell at them like two little kids no let her finish no let him finish do let her finish what well you guys don't know anything read this m now to interrupt people but that's how I went the debate if I interrupt him if I let her talk people are going to believe her ah so that means you're full of it too then why are you so concerned about how finishing because maybe what she's saying is true why are you so concerned about him finishing oh because maybe what he says is true and if he finishes it they're going to believe him it's true oh so what you're saying is not true then so all are trying to do is win the debate by confusing the audience not because your information is true when one party interrupts the other they're not interrupting because their information is true they're interrupting because they fear the other party's information and part of the reason why you subconsciously interrupt the other person is because you want to confuse them you may not even realize that you're doing this but when you're interrupting the other person part of the reason is because you're trying to confuse their thoughts why CU now they're talking they're talking they're talking and you just jumped in the middle of the sentence of course they're going to lose track of thought where they are you're talking now now they not only focusing on talking they're focusing on listening even if they don't want to listen to you they have to listen to you why because you're talking so it becomes very difficult and the toah says that a never does such a thing a learned person never does such a thing why first and foremost if it's someone that is very upset let's say you have one of these people that's a lefty liberal doesn't like one of the things that oh I got really offended when you said that the keeper is supposed to be big my keeper is the size of a quarter but it's very colorful what's the problem I was very offended that you said that my keeper is not good one guy told me this I was very offended so the guy said I want to talk to you so I answered the question then he said I want to talk more and he sent me a MIG so after that I stopped answering I don't have time to read Mig every day so but I let him vent a little bit why a learned person that's the job job is when you know the person is really talking to you not because he has real information or truth or he's even searching for the truth part of the reason of why he's so vocal is because he simply wants the vent he has frustrations maybe he wasn't hugged a child maybe he realizes that he's a fool maybe he realized that you're the one you were referring to him when you talked about roseros cuz he wears his over here maybe all these different things he realizes he's the guy that you're talking about indirectly but you're talking about him he's very upset will let him vent let him talk let him vent his feelings and then talk back after he finishes it after he finishes it cuz some sometimes there's certain types of people I learned this from there certain types of people that it's to listen to them it's a to listen to them not because it's wisdom everything they say everything they say is complete nonsense but it's a to listen to them why no one else is going to do it they have built up frustration no one has listening to them for five years no one wants to talk to them no one wants to nothing you want to do they want to tell you something listen to what they say not because it makes sense not because you're going to learn anything just just be the ear you don't have to agree you disagree nothing just listen to what they just be there just be there don't do this all the time obviously but the point is some people have they have a lot of frustration they need to talk to somebody and if they don't talk it could be the they're going to die can be not a joke not seriously they have so much frustration in their hearts that if they don't get it out and somebody's not going to listen to them they die it could be a mother it could be a father it could be a sister a brother a neighbor a colleague whatever some people have a lot of frustration they need somebody to talk to now if the guy talks non-stop all the time don't worry about being he that's there's no uh Mitzvah over there if the person you see this person is he doesn't talk much or no one really ever wants to listen to him or whatever is and you have a uh 5 minutes 10 minutes 20 minutes even to do is not money it's free just go listen to him go listen to him that's assuming you're not in the middle of learning so sometimes with certain people there's a to do such a thing but the key is to not debate them just to listen if you're going to if you're going to torture them by by debating them and telling them everything they're saying is wrong you're not helping them so now next thing is is that it says an intellectual debate whether it's with a colleague or a student or so on if one person interrupts the other what are they showing him really first of all it's unfair second of all it's arrogant to interrupt the other person and not let them finish why first and foremost you're already assuming that everything that that's going to come out of their mouth is wrong how do you know you haven't heard everything yeah but I knew where he was going well you're Prophet no I used my common sense but how do you know you don't know for sure you're guessing maybe maybe yes maybe no maybe the way he thinks is differently the way you think and at the end he was going to get to the right answer so interrupting him because you think you're right already that shows that you have a lot of arrogance second of all it's unfair maybe he needs to complete his thought and a lot of times I myself I know complete my thoughts through speaking many times I have the K while I'm talking to you I had a part of it at some other point but while I'm talking it's completed so you interrupting him you just stole you just sto stole the completion of his point in sh they're going to judge you for that did not come to the world because you don't know how to hold your patience you don't know how to hold yourself the next thing is is that it shows that you dislike the person why you have zero concern whatsoever for what they want to say all you care about is yourself which shows that not only are you not a not only are you arrogant not only are you selfish but you also have a few other bad needle to go along with it if that's not enough now this if just we finish the mishna here we're not even halfway or third way done if we just finished here right here and everyone applied what I just said myself included Mash would come why there'd never be schite problems there'd never be any problems at all why everyone just listen to each other once you start listening to each other all of a sudden the world starts to make sense all of a sudden there's less arguments all of a sudden you like each other more all of a sudden you're noticing that they respect you more you respect them more all of a sudden the world around you changes why oh that's what he said of course he's been trying to say for 20 years you just never let the guy talk me skin one guy comes to a ra and he says I want to get a get I can't take it my wife is up to here I need your help for the please no I don't want to make it too difficult do this don't convince me otherwise I'm finished 20 years of this woman I know I'm going to ganen it says in the bad wife you don't see you don't go to Gom if you have a bad wife I think 20 years is already a bad life with that's enough I don't need to do my whole life the says okay listen just one last thing please just for one last thing no for one last thing 30 days oh okay 30 days I'll do okay 30 days 30 days 30 days I'm going to go to my room I'm going to get something special for you because I know you're serious I'm G to get something special for you because after use the stuff I never taught you before you know we always want to talk about cabala and stuff like that yeah I'm going to give it to you no problem oh I want to get a divorce he's teaching me cabala now this is good the rabbi comes with a little container little small bottle of water he said this is special water now you have to drink a small tiny sip every day as soon as you enter the house as soon as you enter the house drink the Sip you that's it no no no now that's it that's half the battle the other half is you're not allowed to swallow it for 3 minutes what it's going to clean my teeth what's it it's cabala cabala three minutes hold the water in your mouth and then swallow it if it doesn't work after 30 days no problem I I'll I'll remind you about the get no problem for the love no problem he takes the Magic Water he goes home he knows in 30 days he has a get or he has a magic trick which one of the whichever one comes first same price after 30 days he comes with his wife she both hand in hand they just got married you're the best you're the wild little love bird little doves I don't know where you got this water my husband is the best best husband in the world that I want to say from the deepest heart telling you you are a cabalist you we have to make lectures all over the world with your name and you have to sell this water to people people pay millions for this water telling you my husband's a new man the husband says he says you know I never agreed with her for 20 years right now I agree with her I'm a new man 208 best wife in the world I never I never understood why she's amazing please let's start a business we can make millions off of this tough economy bitcoin's up bitcoin's down we got to do something the ra says yes it was cabala what cabala you just took my my suggestion what suggestion I gave you a bottle of water that I filled up from the faucet goes what do you mean I filled it up the bottle from the faucet regular water you get from the uh ground so how did it work goes no no nothing worked all I knew is that you need to be quiet for three minutes all I knew is that as soon as you got home your wife needed to speak her mind M she was dealing with the kids all day once climbing the walls once climbing the beds once climbing the roof this one's breaking that one's breaking our friends are enemies is it that all she wanted is somebody to hear M what she has to say for three minutes and you don't let anybody talk you want to talk all the time I said if you're quiet for three minutes SCH so if you have the water in your mouth you're not speaking so you have to hear smart Rabbi that's a that's a so here we see if people simply allowed each other to speak life would change life would simply change says that where do we learn this from God himself when hasem told AB ainu abah I'm going to destroy salom and gamorra abam said but what if there's 50 there 50 I won't destroy what if there's 45 if there's 45 I won't destroy what if there's 30 if there's 30 25 why just AEM just jump to the listen AB I love you and everything thank you is nothing there I know I saw I'm God I'm God I don't need you to remember 50 45 nothing zero even Lord is even Lord I'm only saving because of you he knows already hm what means is but hem let aam talk Hashem hem hasem it doesn't get better than that Hem Hem let AB talk why get to say something if AEM let a talk how come we don't let our rabbis talk how come we don't let our parents talk how come we don't let our wives or our husbands talk let AB talk doesn't get better than that so here we understand that it's listening is much more critical than speaking Shalom taught his son a very critical lesson he said in the earlier part of your years instead of trying to find answers to the questions of the tosot this is the deeper part of learning Mar and so on instead of looking for the answers focus on the questions meaning listen to whats is saying and try to understand the question itself the answer focus on the answers later on in your life when your brain is not as strong when you're old already old man you don't have the strength of a young man to go and do and get to the truth you're old already you don't have it then go focus on the answers that's the easy part of course TOS is right now focus on understanding the answer understand I'm sorry understanding the question itself understanding the question itself labor weights had a student come to him who said there a question he wants to give RAB he a question from and I believe that the answer to one he starts he says the question the question is and I believe I thought about this question and I believe that the answer is oh one second hold on a second he tells the student one second let me enjoy the question OFA eager first and then I'll hear what you think is the answer let me enjoy the real question of the and then we'll listen to the answer of whatever you think is the answer is we know it's right we know the question and the answer is right what you think babbe hold on a second let me enjoy the question first the question is critical why there's a u reminds us of a famous quote if it's if it's if it's a if it's a question that comes from a the question itself is already half the answer if the is from the already through the question itself you answer half the question when it's not a it's like what color is the sky simple question the when they they ask questions they're deep questions you could already from the question itself see there's a lot of different moving pieces and this is actually one of the famous stories in the page 84 says that after died he was the of after died they had to replace the k for many many years very sad story and they tried bringing different to andan would uh say something and the would say oh yeah you know what this is a proof of what you're saying you're right here yeah you're right you're right you're right I agree I agree I agree I agree agree everybody says kados whatever he says kados he threw them all out ah I would say one thing he'd ask me 24 different oppos questions on the one answer that I provided you are just G me 24 proofs of what I already said what do you think I don't know your proofs I need why I'm wrong not why I'm right why I'm searching for the truth not to be right I'm searching for the truth whether I'm right or not is irrelevant the truth is more important than whether I'm right or wrong I'm looking for the truth helped me arrive at the truth by asking me 24 different questions that put my answer in Jeopardy and if I can't answer those questions that means I'm wrong you are just telling me I'm right you're not helping me get to the truth you just tell me I'm sadik thank you very much I don't need you to tell me I'm sadik I need to tell me I'm sadik you tell me I'm sadik means nothing and say I'm sadik how do I get to be sadik I have to search for the truth the next thing it says does not answer impetuously sounds similar to what we just said what we said he doesn't interrupt but this is slight different slightly different says that a learned person is never in a rush to answer somebody you see sometimes I make this mistake often so this is definitely just for me probably you guys don't make this mistake but somebody asked you a question right away you answer the question some when you know the answer somebody asked you a question you already know the question already halfway through the question you know the answer if you heard a lot of questions in your life how halfway through the question or even sometimes three words into the question I already know what your question is and instead of thinking about the question again and making sure that the answer is right answer right away like computer you go on Google Google what's the population of America Google spits out 400 million you want to be Google lot of lot of lot of no good no good no good why is in no rush to answer he listens carefully allows the other person to present all of his arguments even all of his arguments put your argument at risk your wife is telling you all the things you did wrong for the last 25 years which is putting your situation at risk why you're looking worse and worse every 5 Seconds cuz she's reminding you of every sin you made in the last 25 years you forgot about it already all you remember is the last week she remembers the last 25 years by the way your wife is never going to forget she she may forget the grocery list she may forget to change the kids she may forget a lot of things but what you did wrong for the last 25 years no chance of know what she's going to forget and every second you're letting her remind you what you're looking worse and worse every second but if you you let her talk you let her talk lets the other person talk present all of the arguments and only after thoroughly weighing the merits of his case meaning your argument you've weighed everything you're about to say you weighed everything he had to say everything that was said then you offer the answer even if that takes a week or it takes a minute he you have to breathe breathe a few times before you answer don't be R by Google don't be R by Google there was one time a fool that was hired to be a bookkeeper looked good wore a suit SC the balab the owner of the phrase didn't know this guy a fool he hire him so he's a bookkeeper he's responsible for numbers and so on after a little while he asked him uh he asked the bookkeeper by the way quick question what's uh what's 300 time 150 300 time immediately the bookkeeper says seven now the guy didn't know the answer what 300 time 150 is which is 45,000 by the way but he knew it's not seven he knew it's not seven says hey no no 300 time 150 seven no no hey 10 300 time50 300 is already bigger than seven 150 is already bigger than seven times each other how much seven what something wrong with you CU listen Maybe it's wrong but what you think about the speed aren't you impressed by the speed that's a that's a fool that's a fool he's worried about how quickly he answered you not about whether it's right or wrong not not whether he's right or wrong a wise person assesses all of the information assesses all of the information before he gives you any answer he does not give you any answer is until he knows every single shape way or form every way you can put now the problem is is that there's nothing new Under the Sun that's what schl says seven times in the Book of Ecclesiastes and in Mish in the Book of Proverbs chapter 26 verse 12 he says says have you ever seen a man that's wise in his own eyes there's even more hope for the fool than him many people think that they're very smart much much smarter than what they really are says yeah we had them also 3,300 years ago goes the guy that thinks he's smart the one that thinks he's smart he views himself is smart the fool has better hope than him the fool has better hope than him the guy that thinks he's smart not the guy that really is smart guy really is wise but the one that just looks smarter than his own eyes there was a rating everyone rated he's not smart but he's convinced he's smart he's convinced he knows everything he's convinced he's better than the rabbi he's better than the Pim he's better than everybody he knows everything and everybody else is wrong he's mhe and everybody else is K says that person even a fool has a better chance than him theal has better chance than him why why why is it so dangerous to be fake smart even more so than a fool you look at the previous verse in Mish 2611 and it says just like a dog returns to his own vomit so does a fool repeat his own foolishness so says a dog has a disgusting trait which is true by the way I had a dog that a dog after if he eats something that doesn't agree with a stomach even though a dog is like a pretty much like a garbage vessel I mean he eats everything but if something doesn't go right he vomits it but five minutes later he'll come back to the vomit and eat his own vomit and he sees nothing wrong with it that's why he's a dog says just like the dog does something disgusting and eats his own vomit the fool repeats his own foolishness the fool Will continuously make the same sin over and over yeah but you know every time you yell at her she doesn't want to talk to you for three days yeah but you know every time you steal they throw you in jail yeah but you know every time you smoke pot at the end you do cocaine you know every time you invest in a market you lose money you know every time you start a business on your own with no Partners you lose you same thing over and over you're doing what you like the dog that's going to eat his own his own vit something wrong with you keep making the same sins that's us by we're talking about us we keep making the same s over and over and over and over and over and over again but even says the one who thinks he's smart is even worse than this this is the fool we're talking about the fool is like the dog that keeps vomiting and and and eating it again the fool keeps making the same sin the guy that thinks he's smart is worse than him why fool eventually he'll stop the fool eventually is going to realize you know what at the end of this is vomit at the end he's going to he's going to run out of money he's going to run out of words at some point he'll do partial chuva the guy that thinks he's smart the guy that thinks he's his own Rabbi he'll never do Chua why he sees nothing wrong with it he thinks he's right the whole time that's makes him dangerous that makes him a danger to not only the people around him but a danger to himself next says the this will be the last one for tonight because it's still very very long says the he asks relevant questions and he replies appropriately now a good student someone is a is going to ask questions that are relevant to what you're talking about if you're talking about let's say for example about Shabbat he's not going to talk to you about I don't know if you're talking about he's not going to ask you about the if you're giving him a about how you can see literally science inside the T he's not going to start asking you questions the two have nothing to do with each other he's not going to expect you to connect the scientific aspect of it to or the scientific aspect of it it's two different things is not going to mix the two knowledges meaning that if uh you are providing logical proof in in regards to he's not going to ask you questions about theories so again there's a time and a place for everything whenever he asks a question it has to do with the subject at hand and many times you see sometimes I try to do my best to answer the questions but sometimes you have when we have a little bit bigger sh there's more people and so every you know raise their hand in the middle of the Sho and try to answer the questions usually but sometimes I say no I don't answer the question I'll answer it later on I'll return you I'll get back to you later on why because we're talking about something specific and this person his brain is like in Alaska he has no correlation whatsoever to the sh we're talking about CH M and so on and so forth and he's thinking about Santa Claus or something like that that do you think Santa Claus was real like some unrelevant questions like really that if I answer that question there's no problem answering the question but the problem is two things will happen number one my train of thought will go there and to go back to where I was is not too easy second of all your train of thought will go there and now we've changed the entire sh for me to do and go back if you have enough experience maybe you can maybe you can't depends how much you have but to have the entire crowd why why put the whole sh at risk for the Santa Claus question like sometimes you have people asking completely irrelevant questions about mashia you know so we talk about I don't know whatever we're talking about M doing CH doing this that do whatever we're talking about and somebody asked me a movie a question do you think that when the mashia comes they're going to the still going to be able to watch movies from Hollywood what does this have to do with anything you shouldn't be watching them now you think you should be watching it when the mashia comes when he can kill you with just but just words you're going to watch a movie while you have somebody next to you that can kill you with words you're going to watch people half naked on on a movie screen like are you where are you thinking but if I answer the question everybody else's Minds going to start thinking about movies oh maybe we should Bish a movie maybe in the m is inside the movie maybe he's in Hollywood maybe who knows where you're going to go with this question so that shows this person is not a person's mind somewhere else but he's also inconsiderate he's also inconsiderate this is also a reminder to everybody to refrain from playing with your phones doing during anything relevant to Tor do not play with your phones and even the people that are watching the Sho online don't make comments you want to make comments in the beginning you know kak from Alaska from Zimbabwe from uh Chicago and so on one comment that's it don't start don't start conversing with each other start asking each other questions and start answering each other's questions why if you want to do that go do it somewhere else you're distracting to everyone else forget about the fact that you shouldn't be doing it anyway you should paying attention to the sh or else while you watching it's not a thread for everybody to converse it's a thread for you to watch the sh and you could say hi and we can see that we have students from Alaska and Australia and different places and you also have Satan coming in different forms you have Christianity and messianics and sometimes kabik that think that the re is mashia or God and sometimes it's people that hate me because I told them the truth about wigs and so on and so forth J comes different ways but if you continuously go back and forth in the thread not not only are you not paying attention to the Sho even if you're hearing it in the background that doesn't mean you're paying attention this is not music this is toah not only you're not paying attention to the shoe but on top of it you're distracting to everyone else because now like whoa there's something going on in the shoe but there's some action on the thread and where do you think the is going to get them to Oh look The guy mention Jesus go go attack him attack him and then they start out everybody forgot about the shoe everybody forgot about the shoe and same thing with the phone same thing with the phone I must have said it on Sunday maybe seven eight times seven eight times I mentioned it stop playing with the phone stop playing with the phone stop playing the phone I'm specifically talking about one person the guy wouldn't hear it m he didn't realize he he keep saying like this and he's the one talking on the phone the whole time he's on the phone it's mamash look thear says a person does not see any wrong in himself he thinks I'm talking about yeah yeah you stop talking about the phone stop understand these people talking yeah what's wrong with you it's you I'm talking about people don't see wrong in themselves why person needs to understand toah is something holy if we're learning holy Tor that means is with us right now hasem is here he's not looking in the sky see right now right here what says in the says in the people study Tor even if two people study Tor is right there three people is there five people is there learned Tor is there so if you knew now you can't see God but if you knew he was here for sure he still play on your phone oh let me check my stock for a second oh no no no no I'm talking I'm talking you have to understand a few things number one if you're playing on your phone you're not paying attention number two number two you're distracting to everyone else why you're getting the also to act why you remind them they also have a phone so now they're going to check their phone they're going to check the text message they're going to check oh yeah yeah yeah he's looking at the phone the rabbi didn't say anything the rabbi didn't say anything so let me check the phone all of a sudden you start and everybody's taking out of their pocket everybody looks like everybody's dancing they keep taking the uh the phones out of the pocket and last but not least the last but not least part is you're distracting to the speaker because unlike what most people think the speaker can see better than everyone else why you're all looking in One Direction the speaker is looking everywhere he sees everything I'm right in front of you I see that you're not paying attention I'm not blind and I see that you're on the phone and the guy under the table like I'm blind I don't know that that his hands under the table an unusual way what's wrong with you just pay attention it's a couple of hours then you go back play with your phone till next year for all I care you're distracted why the is thinking white where's the rabbi thinking where's the speaker thinking first of all he's thinking about his subject at hand but now he sees somebody on a phone and it bothers him why he's like it's not interesting what I'm saying it's not interesting why if it was interesting he wouldn't be on the phone so now the the or whoever the speaker is he's thinking wow I didn't study enough I didn't study enough this is not good I have today you know what maybe I should quit maybe I should have a you think it's funny it's not it's 100% true you're started thinking if I was interesting he wouldn't fall asleep if I was interesting he would actually do Chua if I was interesting he wouldn't play on the phone why is he playing on the fault it's my fault it's not his fault I'm boring he's not he's just doing what he has to do it's a funny joke one time actually RI says it's a real story a guy fell asleep in the middle of a SHO Rabbi he was giving a sh guy fell asleep now it's not look somebody fall asleep in the middle of the sh if somebody falls asleep in a in a uh in a Sho somebody falls asleep in a uh in during prayer you have to wake him up is there get just to honor for the rabbi it's disrespectful is there can't fall asleep so the rabbi saw the guy sleeping okay once in a while you talk for a little while people fall asleep be skinny they're tired whatever so he lets them sleep for 2 minutes 3 minutes 4 minutes 5 minutes 10 20 minutes the guy's sleeping he's sleeping already he's already on his uh REM sleep already the guy's already getting REM sleep he's uh snoring and the whole neighbor can hear so he tells the guy next to him goes no no wake him up wake him up what does the guy say you put him to sleep you you wake him up you pull him to sleep you wake him up but the reality when when when someone sees you someone speaking he sees you playing with the phone he starts thinking I'm not interesting I'm not this he starts having self-conscious issues now what happens you're think ah no no he'll get through it he'll get through it what if he doesn't are you willing to take that on your tab what if he doesn't what if like one day he has the yet he says you know what I'm not g I'm Gonna Cancel The Shield tonight why yesterday I did a Shure half the people were on the phone the other half was sleeping what am I going to do a for you know what I'm going to call in say guys tonight I'm not going to do and that night somebody was supposed to show up to do CH online in person whatever and now she's gone who do you think gets half of the punishment speaker is obviously not good but the guy that led this speaker is partnering a sin he's partnering a sin why instead of doing the opposite why supposed to give the RAB supposed to give the rabbi encouragement to keep going not to show him you're not interested that's why he was like actually somebody was supposed to show up yesterday he didn't stop playing with his phone he did not stop playing with his phone every five minutes he kept getting up playing with the water going to the bathroom coming back playing with the water with the the whole time he was there and he was supposed to come tonight and I couldn't wait to tell him something before this please tonight if you got to be here just learn cuz I don't want to embarrass anybody in public even though you're allowed to in a situation like this cuz this is distracting to everybody else but yesterday I shut up even though two hours I with this guy he was supposed to come I didn't say anything I said tonight I'm GNA have to say something because this cannot become a habit becomes poison becomes a cancer to everybody else they come in they feel like they're the only ones they come into the room cookie the gu dring steak this what there 25 30 50 100 people also watching sh why you're the only one here what everybody else is here too 20 minutes entrance 20 minutes entrance just to enter the place 20 minutes red carpet takes less time president present of himself maybe but the point is you have to understand that this is a problem when you're not conscious of the world around you now to come back this is why page 3B says when a rabbi is engaged in studying one tractate of never question him regarding a different tractate what does it mean what does it mean watch you mean that right now I'm learning don't ask me anything about don't ask me anything else until I finish that may take another month a year 10 years who knows how long it's going to take don't ask any questions no not what it means what it means if right now I'm studying I'm in much if I'm really studying not if I'm like superficially looking at it like it's a movie if you're studying mbat you're in it you you become part of the you become part of the Tora becomes like your life you start thinking in a different way don't start asking hey by the way what's the question you know you remember no no no you ruin why you stole my Tor just now my train of thought was there you just killed it I was in Mount sa with you just took me to s leave me alone says not allowed to do such a thing if he's studying something only ask him about that specific situ at that issue if he's finished and it's General ask him anything you want but at the moment he's actually studying you have to be careful why you have to be conscious of other people like we talked about on Sunday talked about on Sunday most important thing a person needs to do is not just be grateful but also be conscious that their world around them as other people they're not the only one there you're not alone in the world there not there's other people realize your question is not the only question in the world other people also have questions other people also have things to do other people also have problems other people also have Solutions other people have also opinions you're not alone once we start realizing we're not alone things change says something interesting he says a learned person a his intellectual honesty is has one target what's the target emit he doesn't care about whether he's right or wrong as much as he cares about whether it's AIT or not so such a person will only ask questions that are relevant he's only going to ask questions and have discussions if it's relevant to get to the truth he's not going to have an alic discussion just to show you how much he knows which is what you see very often you start telling a guy something he starts going on a completely different rant about something else because he knows it he knows it and he starts talking about it to show you his wisdom yeah but I didn't ask you about this I asked you about something else no but I know this isn't that impressive it's no different than the guy that got the wrong answer said aren't you impressed with the speed how quickly I answer the question yeah but it's a wrong answer 10 is the wrong answer says likewise he answers questions in the most straightforward response rather than engaging in a display that may show you his wisdom meaning that he's not going into like 50 different ways oh what' you ask allowed not allowed allowed if you want to know why it's another question it's allowed because the do but he's not going to tell you oh yeah 1987 I read it in this book but then it wasn't there so 1986 I actually remembered that it was in that book and then 91 December 6th at 6:00 a.m. I said something else had nothing to do with it but we're going to go to December 7th now and he's giving you the whole story the whole theatricks of how he got to the end so he just figured out right now why to show off is wisdom no the is only interested in getting to the emit not an an e EIC display he's only going to show you his straight thinking because his major concern is to discover or to show to highlight the truth we'll finish with a story there was a story that was told to Shalom and he was so impressed with the story that he told it to every single Rabbi that walked into his Yesa during that whole day someone told them that a a problematic student was trying to enter the Yeshiva get accepted and the um nobody wanted this kid he went to this big or which you have to be a big to do it now he already knew the story is guys problematic and so on but he want to help him out and he said okay I'll ask you a question if you know the answer we'll let you in so what do you think the question is question we're already thinking if it's does he know the does he know the with the intricate details of how to tell if it's blood from the teeth or it's blood from the the uterus or it's blood from the just a damage is it it like what do you ask him he said listen what what are you learning right now I learn uh oh okay I'll ask you bet I'll ask you a question wasn't exactly gen this kid said you start learn okay question what do you do if the egg the BET hatched on yum if the egg hatched on Y what do you do what's the what do you do and the unlearned person the guy says you make an omelette the Rabbi says perfect answer you're accepted accepted there was other people there they know it's wrong that's the answer that's the is talking about making omelet what we a kitchen was a diner not the answer so they go the guy you ask the guy an question you ask the guy question if egg hatches on yum what do you do with it and he said make an omelette I mean the guy is in uh different world this guy no no no no all I needed to do is find out if his head thinks straight if he's an honest person I asked him what do you do with an egg that's hatched on yomtov he told me honestly what he would do which is he would make an omelet that's an honest person that means I can teach him Torah as far as making him interested and as far as giving him the right information that's my job I already know he didn't know but I want to know if he thinks straight is he going to make up an answer and tell me oh you know and that and he he start making up a whole thing he's a liar he's he has lies in his veins or he's honest he's going to tell me what he really thinks he told me what he really thinks that's the person I want to teach that's the person I wanted to teach making him interested making them informed having the right answer that's my job that's the rabbi's job andin told this to every single he met he said what would you do would you accept this kid that told you he going to make an omelette cuz that's the right answer accepting the kid that want to make a why all you need is a straight mind you don't need to be a genius all you need is a straight mind I ask you a question you tell me the answer right or wrong is irrelevant the point is are you honest are you intellectually honest if you're intellectually honest I can insert the right information in there but if you're not if you're a liar doesn't matter what I tell you you're going to change the answer anyway to whatever suits your needs and that's what's happening with many people from different sects of Judaism of all types of falsity whether it's Christianity or messianics or some idiots that call themselves o Orthodoxy or reform or conservative all these people everybody wants to make peace there's no peace with terrorists there's no peace with terrorists people that take our tah and pervert it are 100% spiritual terrorists no peace with terrorists they can call themselves whatever they want if they take our Torah and try to change it they are spiritual terrorists there's no peace with them and the reality is these people try to add to to the because they like it better because it suits their needs because it makes more money because it accepts everyone as equals the Torah says everyone is not equal there is no such thing as everyone's equal there is no such thing that's communism Torah doesn't believe in communism everyone is not equal is higher than someone that's not a rabbi is higher than a student a father is higher than than the child a mother is higher than the child is a reality leim are higher than the is and so on and so forth there's no such thing as everyone's equal enough with this communist mentality everyone that perverts T they're only doing it because they care about one thing bank accounts to teach someone T all you need to know are they intellectually honest not are the intellectual where they know all the information already are they intellectually honest meaning you're going to provide them the right answer and I'll say accept it that's the answer that's finished finished that's it not yeah but you know what I understand what you're saying about Shabbat but it doesn't really work for me so can you change that can you change it doesn't work for me can you change that I understand it's you're not supposed to be with your wife for almost half the month but I got a lot of desires so can I just go with a prostitute like like this says you know he says go go with a prostitute if your wife doesn't want to go it's okay it's fine no it's fine no can I do it can't change the Torah we cannot change the Torah we have a single tah like it or not that's the truth like it or not that's the truth if you're intellectually honest you can become a vessel to accept the Torah if you're a liar you're a spiritual terrorist that's it there's no there's nothing in between I saw something that somebody sent me about these open Orthodoxy people you see these people talk if you have any any level of Truth your blood you can't listen to it for more than five minutes why it's it kills you like you see all that they keep adding they they they change the Tora and pervert it in such a way you're like why do you even call why do you even bother call yourself Jewish the guy the guy that leads at this this K uh something where does he go he know from you're not allowed to step into a church why it's a place of a what does he do he goes and he gives lectures in the name of God in the name of Judaism inside a church and he wears his talit like a scarf he wears his talit like a scarf you know Tali supposed to wear it like it's a uh Cape of some kind on your head he wears it like it's a scarf and he gives a lecture to a bunch of think oh yeah we're all one we're all together we should all go together Unison 20,000 of us together okay so go be Christian then why are you tainting am why are you ruining us why why you intellectual liar why why but they use nice words number one ingredient before we get to before we get to being before we get to anything are you intellectually honest it's an ingredient a necessary ingredient for you to become a vessel to accept Tor if you're intellectually honest you're provided the truth and you're going to deal with it accordingly you're a vessel if not you have to go do cha somewhere else I don't know go smash your head against the wall a few times until you become intellectually honest come back we'll teach you again but if you're an INT if you're a liar I can't teach you anything no one can teach you anything why you'll change it into whatever you want anyway what's the point we is just grinding water it's still going to stay water nothing's going to change I'm going to tell you shabbat you're going to say it's Sunday I'm going to tell you K say everything if it doesn't fit or suit suit your needs that's it you know finish so what's the point why waste time why waste time what am I looking for fans we're looking for YouTube H for likes what are you what are you doing so that's the thing it's very very important to be spiritually honest and not just debate because we like for people to see us hear us and so on and so forth this is not what tah is about so with that being said it has a few other things for this Mish but it's already late unless you have some pressing questions we'll call it the night anything specific important critical life-changing I know as soon as I turn off the camera is at least five no no wait five I'll countdown from 1098 or is anybody on the internet that has something really critical or is it uh everybody's tired it's the fourth lecture of the week I think everybody's tired already by now it's overload too much shom we'll have some more lectures next week oh you should know actually by the way there's going to be a lot of traveling coming up uh there's a lot of traveling coming up I'm going to uh I'm trying to set up a couple of trips possibly uh to New York to Canada uh there's one trip that is confirmed as far as the timing I'm going to be away for almost a month during p uh we're going to California we're going to be doing lecture tour over there for for about three weeks uh so uh number one if you have people that you know over there that want to set of shim and they can bring a lot of people not six seven people like a lot of people there A lot of people they both them then let me know we'll connect and we'll try to do a shoe over there but even more so than that you shouldn't miss any between now and then because even between now and P I'm going to be gone a little bit so try to make it to every single lecture we'll continue learning we'll continue this this series and continue doing Chua and sanctifying name amen amen [Music] [Applause] [Music] a [Music]
