We're back here on our Tuesday night war
of series based on the writings
of tonight's shure is uh sponsored for
the of Victoriao Rivera and also for the
lema of our binamit rait sabat anat lean
bats sabat Leana
variat and all of Am is and all the
righteous Noahides that continue to
support us uh continue to sponsor the
lectures continue to help us do all the
wonderful things that Bashm we're doing.
Anyone that wants to donate and support
can go to
beem.org be
z-sh.org. It'll be on the page on the
bottom uh tomorrow when this goes on uh
YouTube. And of course, highly
recommended for everybody to uh get uh
their answers from the AI rabbi app that
we have. I spoke to an AI expert today
who was very very impressed uh by the uh
features in the AI rabbi that uh even
though he's an expert and he actually
has several of his own uh applications
of AI for different uh obviously uh
markets different things he says he
hasn't seen the the features that we
have in it uh in other uh AI
applications. So, AI Rabbi certainly uh
helps a lot of people. It even helps me
when we're uh studying and we're trying
to get specific sources, specific
answers, things we've said before,
things we have uh we need uh information
about. Uh so, Rabbi is certainly a big
uh big plus. So uh we have the uh
extraordinary's words uh still with us
today and uh anyone that is uh familiar
with the era of Msiah series that we did
knows that Raan Vasiman's words are uh
very uh similar to the prophecies we've
had in Tanakh because we see everything
he said back then nearly uh 100 years
ago are very much relevant today and
this lecture is uh not only no different
but in fact this lecture is even more
so. The uh we titled the lecture times
haven't changed but time did. Of course
this sounds like an oxymoron but uh
we'll explain exactly really what that
means. Not a day goes by where we don't
hear people saying uh whether it's
speakers or just regular people uh that
uh times have
changed. The generation is different.
The generation is weak. It's not the
same today as it used to be. Yet Schlam
Melik the wisest man of all said in
Cohel nothing new under the sun. Nothing
is new under the sun. So this sounds
like a
contradiction's war of series will
unravel this contradiction by showing us
a relatively unknown and unwritten
teachings of the who was his uh rabbi
about the
time the whole concept of time
especially when it pertains to the end
of days. Now, this shoe is going to
certainly answer some of your questions.
It's uh certainly going to address some
issues that you've had thoughts about,
that you've asked
about, and uh it's certainly going to be
something
that should entice us to change
something about our life once we have
this new bit of information. in section
22 of the count
by uh
called in essence saying his strategy to
the king. This is what I'm going to do.
This is what we uh we have. This is our
blueprint for how to deal with the war
against Amalikch at the end of days. In
section 22,
says that
the may his memory be blessed used to
say and he starts this is the teachings
of
the meaning at the end of times at the
last
stage of this
world which he was in as
Well, we're going to see
things. What things? He says, "Look at
the times we have
today. We're seeing things
firsthand right now that
are matching what we are supposed to see
at the end of
days. What kind of things are we seeing?
We're seeing things we've never seen
before. But the truth is there's nothing
new under the
sun. Nothing new under the sun. So wait.
So on one end you're saying that we're
seeing things we've never seen
before. On another
end you're saying that nothing's new
under the sun.
So first before we unravel what the is
telling us
here let's see what coit said let's see
what
said in coit in English called
Ecclesiastes chapter 1 verse number nine
and on he says as
follows whatever has been is what will
be and whatever has been done is what
will be done. There's nothing new
beneath the
sun. So
first tells
us
that what happened will
happen.
What people did in the past they'll do
again in the
future. Nothing new in the times that
you live. Rashi says that whoever
pursues secular matters will find
nothing
new. Only that was already that that has
already existed since the six days of
creation. Only in Torah study does one
experience new interpretations
meaning on the other hand comments that
Hashem's creation is perfect and
complete and therefore lacks nothing. So
whatever we view as new has already been
provided by a kadosh in his infinite
wisdom. And as part of creation, Hashem
created the resources, conditions,
concepts for all discoveries and
inventions of succeeding generations
until the end of time. And therefore,
when any generation witnesses an unusual
phenomenon and takes it as if it's new,
they are mistaken. It's only new to
them.
The mid
says
that whatever an eminent scholar will
someday expound already existed and was
communicated as to Mosher Renu at Mount
Sai. This is something we've repeated
many times over the years that both the
written Torah and the oral Torah were
given to Mosherenu at Mount Si. Even
books that are written by that have the
truth were already given
to but back to the point at hand
where is telling us look you're looking
for
something new and you thought you found
it. I'm telling you he says nearly 3,000
years ago 2500 years ago it's not new.
It's always been the case. You are
experiencing as if it's new. It's the
first time you've seen it. It's the
first time your generation has seen it.
But that's not because it's new. It's
new to
you. K continues and says sometimes
there is something of which a person
says look this is new. It has always
exist. It has already existed in the
ages before though. As there is no
recollection of the former ones, so too
the latter ones that are yet to be.
There will be no recollection among
those of still later time. He
says, "You're seeing as new because you
don't have any memory or recollection of
the previous generations that already
had what you have, that already
experienced what you're experiencing.
They spent their entire life chasing
after futile
things, wasting their
time, spending all of their energy and
resources,
accumulating things that only the next
generation will
enjoy, chasing honor that is lost is
much quicker than it's gained.
And Rashi explains sometimes something
will come to you beneath the sun of
which someone might say look this is
new. On this verse he says it's not new.
It's already existed in ages preceding
it. Things only seem new to you because
there is no recollection of what
happened
before. You're not
realizing that this is merely a product
of reorganization of elements that
already existed since
creation
explains that this lack of knowledge
about the past is not a new thing
either. That generation before you that
had what you
have, that did what you
did also thought it was
new. But they forgot or they were not
aware of the previous generation that
had it also. And in fact this will
continue happening in a future where a
similar fate will befall our children
and the children of our children after
them because a generation goes and a
generation
comes and that's why the says that's
why it many times that everything is
futile. You're chasing a bunch of things
as if you're trying to rediscover the
wheel but in
reality it's already been discovered.
All the kings and the mighty empires
says of the ancient times have perished
from the face of the earth with no trace
of them left in the
world and all the toil they exerted in
this world to build their empires.
The only empires that
retained their visibility throughout
eternity are the spiritual
empires. And the same concept goes for
the wicked who perish from the world. No
one remembers
them. Faint stories here and there. But
the righteous are remembered eternally.
For even if they die in this world
physically, they leave behind themselves
a cherished legacy.
Galiko says that is teaching us that the
former generations who strove after
futility left no remembrance after them
and he cautions us not to think that we
can learn from their shortcomings
somehow to ensure our own eternity.
There are some people in the world that
are spending all of their energy to find
a way of how a person can live forever.
either combine them with a robot or some
type of new medicine, stem cells, all
types of things. People are literally
spending billions of dollars to try to
figure out how they could live
forever. The reality is,
Abu, this is not a new thing either.
They tried to do it also in Egypt. They
tried to do it in later generations
after
it. People didn't learn from the past.
They
continued and the
says this goes on from generation to
generation. No one learns from the
previous
generation. And if you think that you're
going to learn from them, you're fooling
yourself because these later generations
who also toil for futility will also
leave no remembrance of themselves in
the previous
one. And therefore, whatever
profit transient man thinks he has
gained from his toil beneath the sun is
only of temporary value and is in
reality futile and worthless.
the money, the cars, the company you
built, the so-called
reputation. These are all things that
have value in your
mind, but they're not going
to do anything in the future.
Now when it comes
to we understand that his writings are
deep but we still have an
issue that it seems
like things are
changing especially now with new
technological developments. artificial
intelligence now trying to get
artificial general
intelligence. Some people speculate that
there's going to be quantum computers
available within the next decade or so.
Others think that it's not coming
anytime soon.
There's also the development or the
attempt to develop AGI which is in so
many words the next stage of artificial
intelligence where it's so many words
it's like Terminator 2 you know where
they're uh robots are going to think for
themselves. They're just hoping it
doesn't turn out to be a uh like a bad
movie. In fact, Elon Musk uh just uh
said today that he's expecting to have
his robots in the market available for
people to purchase within the next 6 to
12 months, perhaps even
less robot cars, robot, you know, that
look like
people. So, it looks like the future is
here. For all of us that are old enough
to remember the different things that
were told in movies and and books and
different things that talked about how
the future's going to look, it looks
like the future is here. There's
robotics. There is there is a all types
of new technology. So, it looks like
things are
changing. No, it's not changing. Looks
like things are moving really fast.
Perhaps
that is an indication in the right
direction.
Says in the name of
the difference between our time and the
previous times is
because the wheel of time
the
controls the speed of
it has changed.
Where has is speeding the wheel of
time where what was done and achieved
and built in previous generation over
hundreds of
years is now done in a very short period
of
time. Here the
gives a
kush about how Hashem runs the world and
how he's running the world
currently
where the wheel of time has
changed. The actions have not. People
chasing after money, people chasing
after different types of immorality,
people chasing honor, people chasing
space, more land, more
control, big buildings, small buildings,
new developments, old
developments, all of that is the same.
The difference is it's happening much
faster. It's happening much much faster.
Why is doing it?
instituted into the world a fast forward
button where things are happening much
faster now than they did in the past. If
you simply compare the technological
development of what happened let's say
500 years ago versus the 1500 years
beforehand. You would see that the
developments whether it's the telescope
or other major developments that
happened at the time literally it seemed
like what happened during the first 1500
those 1500 years versus 500 years ago
that time it was night and day
difference a lot more
advancements a lot more wars a lot more
horrors but then if you compare the last
500 years meaning since that period of
to the last 100
years. You see that there has been more
developments in the last 100
years, more changes, more wars, more
death, more
diseases, more turmoil in the world in
the last hundred
years than there was in the first 2,000
years since the Gregorian calendar.
Obviously, not the beginning of time.
It's even more
so. So, you see
that the last hundred years even
surpassed not just 500 years ago, but
the last 2,000
years. And in fact, if you look at the
last 20
years, you see that there has actually
been more developments in those 20 years
in many respects than there was in the
last 100 years.
So developments,
innovations, wars, change
of major things in the
world are happening much
faster. But the actions themselves are
still the
same. As is telling us, nothing is new
in the world with people or deeds. It's
only that Hashem has sped up the wheel
of time where things that used to take
hundreds of years to happen are now
happening quicker because the world is
running out of
time. And as he continues here, he
says, "And here we see these things
stand out and felt with more
changes today than we saw even
yesterday."
And therefore says
of when the prophet Jeremiah chapter 2
verse
said that your evil will bring you
suffering also is fulfilled with much
faster speed than in previous
generations.
The in
San Page
97A says in the name of Rav
Katina, one of the great sages
Just as the sabbatical year, the causes
cessation one year out of seven
years, so too the world ceases one
millennium out of seven
millennia. As it stated, Hashem alone
will be exalted on that day, which
indicates that there will be a day when
the world is desolate.
where in a uh Psalm 92 verse1
says
Shabbat a psalm a song for the day of
Shabbat which is interpreted as meaning
the day that is completely
Shabbat where it says a thousand years
in your eyes Hashem are like a bygon
yesterday indicating that that day is
referring
to the previous two verses that are
millennium clarifies in simple
language in so many words the world is
destined to exist 6,000
years the first 2,000 years were of
nothingness the second 2,000 years were
of Torah meaning that the first 2,000
years there was No Torah given to AI is
yet. Second 2,000 years, the Torah was
given to
Israel. And the third 2,000 years should
have been the days of Msiah.
But because of our sins, which are
numerous, the years that have gone from
the messianic era of God, in so many
words, instead of enjoying the last
2,000
years, we have suffered due to our
sins. And the salvation will come in the
7,000th year. We are now in the year of
5785 since creation.
Meaning that there's just a little over
200 years left to this
world. But in those 200 years, a lot of
things have to
happen. The Mashiah has to come. The
resurrection of the dead, war of
go. In fact, the also discusses that and
says in the name
ofan the generation of when the mashiach
will come the number of Torah scholars
will decrease the rest of the
people their eyes will be worn out
through grief and anxiety meaning people
are going to suffer a
Even before war, stress,
anxiety, people are
uh literally sick just simply from
living their life full
of stress and misery. Numerous troubles
and harsh decrees will be constantly
appearing a
new. And before the first trouble is
over, the second one will hasten hasten
to appear.
And the seven-year
cycle that precedes the Mashiach's
arrival, meaning that seven years before
Mashia
comes in the first
year, the verse will be fulfilled that
says, I will bring rain on one
town and on one town I will not bring
rain. Meaning there will be sufficiency
in some areas and famine in others. We
see some of that already.
In the second year, the arrows of famine
will be sent forth, meaning that
there'll be limited famine in all
areas. In the third year, there will be
a great famine. Men and women and
children will perish, and so will pious
people and people of good
deeds. The Torah knowledge will be
forgotten by its
students. In the fourth year, there will
be a sufficiency, but not complete
sufficiency.
In the fifth year, there will be a great
sufficiency. People will eat, drink,
rejoice, and Torah knowledge will return
to its students. In the sixth year,
there will be
sounds, all types of strange sounds in
the in the sky, some of which is
happening as we speak. In the seventh
year, there will be
wars. The seventh year is go magog. In
the aftermath of the seventh year,
meaning the eighth
year, Bened will come, the Msiah will
come and also talks about how the
generation is going to be. It's going to
be a full of immorality, lentiousness.
The
uh Torah
scholars will be despised. Those that
teach about fear of Hashem will be
hated,
mocked. The face of the generation will
be like the face of the dog. There'll be
almost no truth available. Truth will be
absent.
And anyone that does cha, the one that
turns away from evil will be considered
foolish in the eyes of people, wicked
people. Of course, there's a lot more,
but is telling
us
that many of the things we see in the
world today
match this end of days to the T.
is telling us one of the signs is that
time is faster. He saw it in his day.
Needless to say, we see it in our
day. But why? What is the
purpose of speeding up
time? If we're running out of
time, shouldn't it slow down the time?
Logically, that's what a person would
think. Maybe things should happen
slower. Rashi tells
us that one of the things that speeds
time is as what the prophet Jeremiah
said, the suffering of people.
Somebody does something
bad, suffering for that will already
happen in their life. The conclusive
outcome of a person's wickedness will be
suffering brought upon them in this
world already.
And one of
the important
reasons of why this is all
happening is because since there's not
much time left before
Hashem ends this stage of the world, a
lot has to happen during these next 215
years which include like I said the
Msiah coming, the war of Gum Magog,
resurrection of the dead. lot has to
happen during these next 200 years
before that 7,000th
year. Which means that each person is
going to be
given their
opportunity to complete their
tikun to complete their mission in this
world. That tikun may require more
suffering, more reward, feelings of
pleasure, feelings of pain.
more payment for the merits that a
person has acquired either in their
current life or previous life that now
will enable that person to do more good
things or the opposite obligations
because he did certain something bad. He
wrote a heretical book now will have
opportunities to do even more bad to
increase the punishment that'll
ultimately get.
Everyone has to get
paid before the store
closes. And continues and says, "The
truth of these matters are seen by every
eye. Anyone that's paying attention in
regards to the wheel of
time, you can see how it's
fastened by simply looking at financial
matters of how people go from poor to
rich or rich to poor. where in previous
generations when someone accumulated
wealth it would last for multiple
generations two three
generations. What do we see today
says that wealth has become like the
kikayon of
yanavi. What is the kayon of
Yunani? Everyone has heard the story of
Yunah. The
prophet told him, commanded him to go
and tell the people of
Ninve that
if they do not change their
acts, Hashem is going to destroy them.
Now even though they were all Gentiles,
Hashem wanted to send a message to
them. Yunah did not want to do this. He
was a Jewish prophet, a holy man, and he
did not want to be the prophet for the
gim. Like
unfortunately many people instead of
going to teach is rabbis teach, they go
and focus only on Guim. There's no
problem if you have a lecture like I'm
having right now and Gim are watching
the lectures and learning and improving
themselves. Ask questions. is no
problem. I have many many good uh
students that are not Jewish. They're
righteous no hides have abandoned
idolatry. But for a rabbi to no longer
teach Jews and only focus on non-Jews is
completely
forbidden. No great pekk in the history
of mankind has ever said that a Jewish
rabbi should focus only on
non-Jews. And unfortunately there are
some organizations like that.
Hashem did not tell Yona to be the rabbi
for the go forever. All he told him to
do is just send one
message. Tell them I'm going to destroy
them if they don't do chuva. And even
that Yona did not want to do. So much so
that he
was running away from it. And of course
everyone knows the story. They the fish
swallowed him and then he realized his
mistake. He asked Hashem to forgive him.
He did chuva while he was inside the
fish. And the
uh says that the fish that swallowed
Yona was
actually taking Yona
initially to uh the
Levitan. Why why you going to the
Levitan? And the fish told Yona that
well today I am uh it's my turn to be
the Levi's lunch.
She says, "What do you mean? I'm inside
you. If he kills you, he kills me, too."
She says, "Hey, listen. I didn't ask you
to come inside. This is what it is. It's
my turn. Everybody has a turn to be the
lunch of the Levitan, the king of the
ocean."
But as soon as they got to the
levatan
says threatened the
levatan with his kesh and said I'm a I'm
a son of
a
when saw this he got so scared
he ran
away. So the fish that swallowed Yuna
was very grateful and said to you now
okay fine listen you saved my life. So
uh because tomorrow somebody else is
already in turn to be eaten by the
levatan. So since you've done uh this
this kindness for me you know if you
want I'll show you around. What do you
want to see? You want to you want me to
show you the entrance to gum? Because
one of the entrance gum is inside the
ocean says you said sure. And he showed
him this and he showed him other things.
Midash goes into and goes into many
different interesting things that you
not saw in the ocean. But eventually
after he did cha and Hashem forgave
him. Hashem told the fish to spit him
out and Yunak came out and then did the
will of Hashem by going to the people of
Ninve and telling
them what Hashem said.
40 days more and Ninve will be
overturned. When the people of Ninve
heard this, the Torah says in chapter 3
of the book of Yuna, the people of Ninve
believed in God and they proclaimed a
fast and ded sackloth from their uh from
their great to their small. everybody,
the the people, the king, the uh
children. When the matter reached the
king of Ninve, which is a side note,
was the midwash
says he rose from his throne, removed
his robe from upon himself and covered
himself with sackcloth and sat on top of
the
ashes. Everybody did cha on the spot.
So, this is good news.
Hashem didn't tell Yah stay and teach
them someh give them some. No, no, no.
Just tell them the message and
leave. Yah gave the message and then
went to the outskirts of the city like a
desert type of area and started crying
asking for Hashem to kill
him. Why? Why you
why? Before we get to the
why, Yuna was being burned in the desert
and
Hashem made a miracle where a certain
plant, a huge plant called
Kikon grew and covered
him and this brought comfort to Yona. He
wasn't suffering from the
heat. But then that night, Hashem sent a
worm to eat the roots of this
kikayon. And by the next morning, the
whole plant withered and
died. When
Yonah saw this, he started crying again
to Hashem, asking him, "Please take my
life." He asked for his soul's death and
said, "Better is my death than my life."
So Hashem says to you now, "Are you so
deeply grieved over the
Kikayon, what are you crying? You crying
about the plant?" You said, "Yes, it's
that's it. I I don't want to live
anymore."
Why? You see, Yah was a
sadik. And Sadik understood how a kadesh
akadesh who runs the world.
He knew that it's much easier to get the
goim to change their ways than it is to
change Jewish people. Why? Because the
evil inclination of the Jews is much
stronger than the evil inclination of
the
goim. And the problem is you not thought
that if I go and tell the goim they have
to do chuva and they do it that's going
to make the Jews look bad because we
haven't done it yet because we're still
doing some certain things that are not
good. I don't want to make my brothers
look bad because if he told them the
going to do chuva and they do it he's
not going to kill them. But if we didn't
do chuva, despite me telling them to do
chuva, despite other prophets telling
him to do chuva, maybe he'll kill us. I
don't want to get my brother and my
sister, my cousin, my mother, my father,
all these people, all my brothers and
sisters to die because the goim look
better temporarily than us. So that's
why I don't want to help them. Let them
help
themselves. That was his logic.
But the truth
is wanted to teach yah mus and wanted to
teach the Jews m and wanted to teach the
goim that are watching this m what's the
m
says something very very important
especially for the anti-semites that
think that the Jewish Torah teaches
against and hates the
says in the Torah, in our prophets, the
prophet Yon, the ultimate
message, chapter 4, verse number 10,
Hashem says to Yona, after he destroyed
the Kikayon and Yonai is crying, wants
to die
again. You took pity on the
kikayon for you, for which you did not
labor, nor did you make it grow. It
lived one night and perished after one
night. And I shall I not take pity on
Ninve, the great city in which there are
more than 120,000 people who do not know
their right hand from their left hand
and many animals as well. in so many
words says to
Yuna, I understand that this is not the
Jewish people, the chosen people, your
brothers and sisters, but they're still
my
creation. They're still my creation. I
still care about them. I still want them
to be good. I still gave Noah Hide
laws. So, I'm not telling you to go
become the rabbi of the goim and abandon
your brothers. But since
you have the
truth, certainly if you can help, an
opportunity arises, go and do it. But
don't forget your
purpose. You thought you should be an
extremist. And you know what? Don't talk
to any goim. Don't help them. Don't say
hello to them. No, no, no. Look, when
push came to shove, you cared about the
tree because it gave you comfort.
because it helped you. You didn't make
it. You didn't plant it. You didn't
water it. But you cried about it like as
if it was the loss of all your
treasures. So what? You expect your
creator not to care about his creation
when it's much greater than the plant? A
city with over 120,000 people, many
animals. What do you want me to just let
them destroy themselves? These people
don't know their right from their left.
They don't understand that Christianity
is idolatry. They don't understand that
Islam is a terrorizing religion.
Literally teaches terrorism inside the
Quran. They don't know. No, no one has
told them. They haven't read. They just
listen to some Joe Schmo that tells them
what to do and they believe him because
that's the way they were brought
up. So I want to give them a chance. I
want to give the world a chance. Give
everybody a chance. Certainly am has the
biggest purpose and has the biggest
opportunity but they also have the
biggest obligation but that doesn't mean
that the rest of the world is just going
to go to waste as the prophet says go
twothirds of the world will be destroyed
onethird will be left obviously there's
not onethird of the world Jews only a
small fraction of that is
Jews even if every single Jew in the
world that we know of 20 million Jews at
at at best let's say all of them do
chuba 20 million so obvious Obviously
third of the world is a lot more than 20
million. You have nearly 8 billion
people by the time uh literally you uh
you blink it may end up be being 9
billion people. 6 billion people
destroyed 3 billion left minus 3 billion
minus 20 million you have
2.98
billion. And that's if every Jew does
but in reality we see that some people
are and they're never going to do chuva
because they don't want they hate hem.
Either
way, who cares about the cares about one
thing doesn't contradict the
other. One thing doesn't contradict the
other. But what a wants is for people to
know about him and not some so-called
messenger that pretended to be God or
his mother said he was God and some
prostitute said he's he he's God. He
doesn't want you to invent new
religions. He don't want you to start
new books. No. No, no. He gave the Torah
in Mount
Si. This is what he wants. Nothing
else. When a
person understands
this, they'll be able to understand
other
things. You
see, is telling
us that this Kayon This tree that was
beautiful,
glorious, brought shade and cover and
comfort that
soothed Yona.
But for a
moment is
also what we should use as the
analogy for
wealth in this generation in this
time where one day a person could be
wealthy have major
fortunes and the next day could lose
everything. One day he doesn't have
anything and the next day he's
extraordinarily rich. We've seen this
time and time again today, especially
with the internet and how everything is
digitized and so on. You see, literally
how a person one day no one even knows
he exists, including some of his
neighbors. The next day he founds a
company, develops an application, he
has people throwing money at him. Eight,
he's worth eight, 10, 15 billion
dollars. 6 months ago, a year ago, he
wasn't even able to pay his rent. Now
billions of dollars people are throwing
at him. You look at some of the people
the famous wealthy people in the world
major
investors. In the last couple of months
there's been major turmoil in the
markets world markets. Initially the
market dropped nearly 30% 40%. In some
cases some stocks dropped 50 60%.
So people would report, oh look, this
guy lost $10 billion in the last uh two
weeks. This guy lost $3 billion in the
last 24 hours. This guy lost5 billion.
Huge fortunes. Huge
fortunes were
erased. Trillions of dollars were
erased, evaporated in an
instant. Much of it has recovered. Not
all but needless to say you see how in
the last 10
years major fortunes were accumulated by
nobodies that of yesterday and became
somebody today. Major fortunes were
lost. Companies like Lehman Brothers
Bear Sterns that were over a hundred
years old made billions of dollars for
themselves for investors evaporated. No
one even remembers him other than a
nightmare. Major fortunes lost, major
fortunes made, new
faces, but all seems like it's
overnight.
In the last 15 years, you had major bull
markets,
crisis, par, you know, the the the uh
the uh the plague that we had and all
the
the different things that revolved
around it. All the conspiracies, all the
scams, the scandals, the opportunities
for thieves to steal money from
governments.
Then you had new innovations,
technological
revolutions, major wars,
terrorism. Israel realized they're not
as strong or secure as they thought.
Where a bunch of degenerate monsters
with flipflops murdered
thousands without even anyone being able
to defend themselves. Till this day,
we're fighting the same losing
battle, celebrating each person we could
get out of the hostage
situation. In the beginning, everyone
said never again. How could this be?
Shortly thereafter, everyone became even
more anti-Semitic than they have been in
the last 80
years. Major things change.
says, "You can see the hand
of your own eyes. Look at what's
happening. Things that used to take a
very long
time to go to war to to have peace used
to take a long time. Today, one, two,
three. India and Pakistan declared war
on each other. Then later in the day,
this is just this past week. Later in a
day declared peace, no more war. Later
in the same day, declared war
again. War, peace, and war all in the
same day, 24
hours. And who is better than Donald
Trump to be the poster boy for the
times of how the wheel of time is
moving. Every single day there is a new
headline of some major policy change,
some major new deal, some major new
disaster with his name on it.
One day everything is great. He's the
new leader. Next day we're going to give
new laws, new tariffs on every single
country. 100%
150%. Market
crashes. Shortly thereafter, ah no, by
the way, I was just kidding about the
tariffs. We're going to make some
deals. We're uh going to go back to what
we were, but we're going to make it seem
as if it's a new
deal. One day he says, "We're going to
destroy Gaza. These people are
terrorists." Next day, yeah, these
people uh were working things out. They
seem like nice
people. One day, the Houthis, they're
our enemies.
Next day, these are good people. Nice.
Very uh very
decent. One day we're going to destroy
Iran. They can't have nuclear weapons.
Next day make a good deal with Iran.
They can stay with whatever they have.
No problem. One
day we're Israel's best friend.
next day gives Israel the worst possible
conditions we could ever
imagine while giving favorable terms to
their enemies Iran, Gaza, and all of the
other terrorizing
countries. Literally, not even a month
passes for you to digest the news. In
the old
days, people knew that the news in the
newspaper is good for a month. How would
they know? Simple. In the old days, they
used to use the newspapers after people
read them and used them or whatever.
They would reuse the newspapers to cover
the fish and sell the fish in the market
inside the
newspapers. This, by the way, as a side
note, was one of the ways that the zados
was discovered. the fool that uh found
it and thought that it's a newspaper, so
he just covered his fish with it. When
one of the Jewish scholars saw this, he
wanted the rest of the pages. Gave him a
bunch of money to give him the rest of
the
pages. But
anyway, people would reuse the
newspapers,
unfold, put the fish aside, and then
read what's on the paper. What read on
on on the paper, and it was still
relevant. Why? Time was moving
slowly. Okay, so a month ago there was a
war. Okay, there's probably still a war
now. Oh, there was a peace. There's
still peace now. Oh, there's a new rule.
The rule
now.
Today, the newspaper you buy in the
morning is already useless by the
afternoon. The news you read in the
morning is literally absolutely
useless by the next day.
New policies, new
terms,
new everything is fast
forward.
Says this is
all due
to fastforwarding the wheel of time in
order to prepare the store to close.
As there's
a parable in
the where there's a famous
story
says where there was one
time
store selling
groceries and I remember this growing up
in Israel it was like that we used to go
to the store the owner's name was Rafi
everybody knew Rafi
And I went to Rafi. Anytime we need
something, we go to Rafi and uh if we
didn't have any money, we just tell him,
"Put it on the tab." And Rafi had little
notebook. You'd write down how much you
spent. And uh sometimes you'd have the
people sign it, sometimes no, but
depending on who it
was. After a while, you have to pay him.
And this is the way it was not just with
Rafi. This was the way this was common
in the old days. Somebody had a grocery
says grocery and people would buy and
there was one
guy that would come to the store and he
would buy a lot of stuff lots and lots
of stuff
shea and put on the tab and every few
months he'd pay it off for years. for
years he's paying it off and
accumulating
again. Buys for a month, two months,
three months, four months, five months,
all on the tab. And then after five, six
months comes tells Rafi, "Here you go.
How much I owe you? 15, 20,000. Here you
go." One day says
the person comes to the store and he
does the
usual. Starts emptying out the shelves,
buying a bunch of stuff.
When he brings it to the
counter, the clerk totals up everything,
tells him, "Okay, this is the bill." He
goes, "Okay, just put it on the tab."
Click says, "No, no, no more tab. You
have to pay cash today." What? What?
What do you mean? I've been doing this
with you for 20 years. Come here, tab. I
always pay. I never give you problems.
No, no, no. It's not that you give me
problems. It's just that I'm closing the
store today. That's it. Shutting down
the store. I'm retiring. I'm
finished. So, there's no more buy today,
pay me in 60 days. Buy today, pay me 90
days. No, no. Today's the last day. You
have to pay cash.
Now you
see this is what's happening in the
world is preparing the
world for the last stage for the last
minute for the last
hour.
and he's speeding up all the things that
are happening in the
world in order to help
people do
chuva fulfill their
tikun.
Sometimes there was a person that was
decreed that he'll have a feeling of
being rich in his life because he did
something good at some point. So, Hashem
makes that person do something that he
didn't even realize is going to be that
good. And all of a sudden, he becomes a
multi-millionaire, billionaire, buying
houses, buying buildings on TV. Everyone
respects him, thinks he's a
genius, and before you know it, he
thinks he's going to have more money for
the next hundred years.
makes a few moves, everything works out
until it doesn't. And he loses all of
his fortune much faster than he gained
it. Why? The decree was for him to feel
rich for a specific amount of time.
Sometimes that's a lifetime, 70 years.
Sometimes it's 70 days, seven years.
Different amount of time for each
person.
Other times he can make a fortune, feel
rich and then lose a bunch and then
recover. Why? Hashem wanted him to feel
poor again because that was also part of
the decree. And then help him recover
again. That happened many times
also. But everything happens
fast. In his 20s he's a
millionaire, 30s
poverty, 40s millionaire.
All things that usually would take
generations, take lifetimes. The
billionaires of the previous generation
literally worked their entire life, 30,
40 years to achieve what they achieved.
Today, it's literally you have 20 year
olds, 20 year
olds that are achieving these major
things.
Why? Hashem is speeding up
everything. Hashem is speeding up
everything. Finalizes the section by
saying all of this
wealth, Hashem is showing it to you,
moving in fast
motion to remind you of the story that's
in the Torah of the Kikayun. It's all an
illusion. It's all
temporary. One day here, one day is
gone. The point of the lesson
is to show you that times have changed
and you're running out of
time. Look at what happens with the
nations. He says the control of
countries is changing rapidly.
World War
I, Germany declared war against the
world. There wasn't even enough time for
them to recover. It seemed they went
under major crisis. Literally, their
their their currency became absolutely
worthless and they already built
themselves back up to declare World War
II.
media
controls for countries, for empires,
gone. The Turkish
Empire ruled the world for years. Who
even knows of the Turkish Empire
today? Great Britain was called Great
Britain because they literally had major
control of the world. Now it's just
England.
Now it's Yeah, they're uh a world power
because they're friends with America. I
mean, because they're world power
somehow. No one is
impressed like they were in the past.
Major control. America was a nobody
before the
wars. Before World War I, before World
War II, America wasn't the America of
today. It was only after new
negotiations and deals they made with
Saudi Arabia, with the UK, with a few
countries, some financial, some for oil,
different things they did. And most
critically, the major development of
their
weapons. They were a weapon empire. They
were able to literally produce more
ships in one year during the war than
they can ship in 10 years today. The
ship building ability of the United
States today is not even onetenth of
what it used to be a 100 years ago.
They're much more powerful today, but
100 years ago their produ productivity
was much
greater. Either
way, before the wars, before all this,
nobody thought that much of America.
They were a relatively new country.
They're only a couple hundred years old.
Back then, they were less 100 years old,
150 years
old. Things changed.
says, "All of this is to show you that
there
is there is a
decree, a horrible
decree in the
world that has to
do
with AmI." He uses the euphemism haters
of of Israel which really means
is because the purpose of the
world can only be achieved by am is
everyone has a purpose. Everyone can
achieve their purpose individually. But
in order for
the Torah to be fulfilled, for the
Mashiach to come, for the salvation,
it's now what is
this
in page
41, there's a story of again
Ravkina, but this
time an angel comes comes toina and
rebukes
him because he was wearing a garment
that was exempt from putting on it. It
had round corners so he didn't have to
put tit on
it. So the angel rebuked him. How are
you not wearing tit right now?
You're wearing a garment. It doesn't
have to wear
tit of katina says well the tit only has
to be worn if there's four corners. I
don't have four corners. So what's the
problem? What you get punished for
possibly avoiding a positive
commandment. It's not like where you're
a Jew is obligated to late feline every
day except Shabbat and holidays.
you only have to wear a tit which is
these strings. If you have a garment
that has four corners. So Afkina says
what? You get punished if I don't wear
tit. No, it's it's a I don't have four
corners. The corners are round. The
angel says
tokina. Yes, you get punished for not
wearing tit
during divine times of
wrath. The times of divine
wrath. There is a punishment for this.
Further in the same page
43b teaches that the punishment for not
wearing the white strings of the tit is
actually more severe than not
wearing why because while may not be
available making you ones making you
pretty much someone that can't fulfill
it the white seat seat is always
available.
So choosing not to wear the white shows
that you don't like the mitzvah. You
have contempt for the
mitzvah. And the also says that during
times of this this times of divine
wrath, the first people that will be
punished are those who don't wear
tit where even though technically you're
only required to wear tit if you have a
four cornered garment. During the times
of judgment, those who actively avoided
a mitzvah by not wearing a four corner
garment are punished first because they
showed
arrogance at their spiritual situation
as if they don't need another mitzvah
when they could have done it thinking
that they have enough merits without
this mitzvah.
So the teaches us not only about tit and
the importance of wearing
tit whether you like it or not whether
it's hot or not hot doesn't make a
difference but also teaches us about
these
times of harsh
decrees says we are in the end of days
which
is a time of harsh decrees. There are
certainly going to be times we are
better than others, but in general we
are at a time of harsh
decrees. And therefore
the and therefore the danger for us to
be vomited from the land
meaning tragedies happening happenings
in the world are much closer much more
common than in the previous generations.
Why? Hashem is closing the
store. He's about to bring
Msiah. The ultimate salvation is coming
for those that are righteous, that have
done
chuva. And the ultimate punishment is
coming for those that don't. So in one
end, Hashem is fast forwarding
everything. Whatever bills have to be
paid, he's paying them. Somebody, this
guy deserves a reward in this temporary
world. Give it to him. Make him a
millionaire. Make him this. Make him
that. She deserves something for
something good she did. No problem. Make
her beautiful. Make her marry a rich
person or she's rich. Whatever it is,
give it to
them. Oh, this guy deserves suffering.
Okay. Give him suffering, whatever it
is. And then he's going to go to heaven
if he's righteous. Everybody's getting
whatever they can in this temporary
world. Why? All of the small bills have
to be
paid before
The
final totality is
calculated. So everything is fast
forward. Everything is faster. And the
way things look right
now, that speed is only going to be
magnified. With the new technological
innovations, it's easy to understand how
everything will be faster. A person that
has a business today if they do not
adjust themselves and their business to
adapt to the
times add the different artificial
intelligence tools, different marketing
tools, different uh accounting whatever
it is to their business. If they don't
add it, they're simply going to become
like an obsolete business.
It's like the stores that took upon
themselves to digitize themselves and
going to cash registers that were
digital versus those that were still
doing everything with a pen and
paper. Those that were digital ended up
winning. It's the same concept for how
people adapted to the computer age, the
internet. Those that thought the
internet is a joke. Who's going to order
books from the internet? Who's going to
order their boat from the internet?
Who's going to order cars from the
internet? No, I'm still going to stay in
my place. Guess what? Most of those
places are out of business
now. There's no such thing as not having
a website. There's no such thing as not
having a functioning technology, and
you're still in business for a long
time. Same concept with what's happening
now. In fact, one of the things that's
happening is that it's not it's not like
the cash register or uh the uh some of
the other uh advancement. This is in so
many words tools that are going to make
each business either function better or
simply not be seen by their audience
because their competitors are doing it.
Things are moving much faster in that
direction. Major corporations are
changing themselves from
within. Insurance companies like
AIG literally revamped the entire multi
multi-billion dollar company by adapting
all types of new artificial intelligence
to make their insurance more profitable.
Whether it's the applications for new
policies or it's the uh determining of
what type of uh payouts to give or a
bunch of other things in
between. Everyone knows the insurance
industry is usually the slowest to
move. But things are changing. But
that's not it. You see the world
geopolitical issues every other day. It
seems like there's a new war being
declared.
You had the war
with Russia and uh
Ukraine. Pretty much everyone thought
that Russia and Ukraine, the war is
going to last maybe maybe a
week. Maybe a week. It's been going on
for years already.
How? the little Nazis from
Ukraine led by a a
picolus intermar Jew who hates
Jews. Apparently, Hashem wants him to
suffer but not be destroyed yet. Why? He
gave them the wherewithal to do
something new. Use
drones made by regular people, not even
major corporations.
use drones as the new army, something
the world hasn't seen, only talked about
over the last few decades. And
literally, they've been
surviving one of the world
powers with their pieces of plastic and
metal drones, tiny little
drones. That's how they're still alive.
How long, longer, who knows? But the
point is is that this war shouldn't have
lasted more than a
week. With the major power of of of
Russia, Ukraine should have uh should
have said, "I'm sorry for even bothering
you." But you
see how that happened. At one end, in
the beginning, everyone was against,
then at four, then against again. In the
meantime, you had obviously the war in
Israel.
Then you have the wars Pakistan and
India. Then you have other countries
either fighting each other or also
fighting Israel also fighting all types
of things. And then the biggest news in
the last couple of months has been the
acknowledgment of
many
major American leaders of corporations
of politics and so on in so many words
realizing that war with
China is only a matter of time. Even
though in the last 24 48 hours it seems
like they've become friends
again. Don't think for a moment that the
opinions have changed. Everyone
views China as an enemy now because
they've shown their colors have really
uh in the last few years that a lot of
people didn't realize they had. A lot of
major corporations are have exited doing
business in China because they realize
that by going to China, yes, you're
making a bunch of money, but the price
you pay for it is that your everything
will be stolen in the end. Your
intellectual property, this
that.
So this was the reason behind why Trump
was so harsh on them and why the
negotiations are certainly not
over. In so many words, everyone is
saying, "Listen, America has to prepare
themselves for a war with China within
the next 5 years, maybe
10." That's a world
war. That's a world war.
And you see that
Iran, no matter what anybody says about
them, they're the most persistent
villains on the planet, care less about
what everybody says. Every day they talk
about destruction of their enemies,
Israel, America, and pretty much anyone
that doesn't agree with their
terrorism. Every day they're declaring,
"Yeah, today is going to be the day
we're going to destroy the world." And
in fact, that's what the Midash says.
That's what the mid says
that first there's going to be a
negotiation
between the king of pas which is Iran
will come to the king of adom
negotiate agree
initially and then go back and destroy
the
world this is something that seems like
it's literally could be happening any
day with the way the the world is going
on one end you're seeing people
prospering on the other end you're
seeing the other side where destruction
is around the
corner now if you remember the said
in mashia is not going to come
until everyone loses their money where
everyone is going to be poor how could
that possibly be one of the things
that you get to see I guess especially
if you're
a little distant from the
picture is on one
end, there's a few things I learned in
the last few months.
One, anyone watching the news is simply
wasting their time because the
newscasters are completely oblivious to
anything useful aside from things you
could find out on your own. They could
only tell you about things that
happened. As far as their projections,
their predictions, their their their
sense of uh understanding of what is
actually going on, they're all clueless
as can possibly I think more clueless
than the average person.
You see that there
is major possibilities for great things
to
happen on a positive event. development,
productivity, product, productivity,
uh, building new
on, another end you're seeing that
literally the end of the world could be
there. A third end that only a few are
really considering is that it could all
happen at the same time. How?
In the last few
years, we've talked about
the predatory business of cash
advance and how these industry lends the
average person, average small business
money with high interest and destroys
them, destroys the business. We've
talked about this. In the same time
frame there was sort of a
rebirth of another part of the credit
industry called private
credit. Now this private credit I mean
has pretty much existed for for
forever practically but it became really
big in the last let's say decade or so.
And in so many words, the difference
between
that and what has been the norm is that
in the past, if you wanted to borrow
money, you have to borrow from a bank.
And they have their policies, their
regulations and fractioning system and
so on.
But after the market crisis of
2008, things changed and private credit
in so many words came and
made investments where they would get
investors, billions of dollars from
investors, and lend that money out to
major companies, businesses, and so
on and made credit more readily
available to certain types of customers,
certain types of people without having
all the bank regulations and so
on. Now on the good end, this is helping
certain companies flourish, certain
companies have easier access to
credit. The same concept goes with
digital currency. Digital currency was a
joke 10 years ago. Somebody bought a
pizza with a bitcoin. I know he regrets
that today because that those bitcoins
that he spent are worth literally
hundreds of millions of dollars today if
he would have kept them. But today many
people have gone into the digital
currency. A lot of regular people and
not just Bitcoin but many others most of
which are a scam literally are outright
scam. People are creating stuff that is
scamming people and ripping people off.
But you see a bunch of people making
small fortunes overnight by scamming
people in public without regulation
without anything. where in so many words
what I'm trying to tell you is that in
the last
decade what has happened is this
digitization of
currency in every
aspect where
everyone in the world for the first time
ever pretty much is part of the world
economic
system. In the past, there's always been
a segment of people that are not a huge
segment of people that are
not. People major poverty, people in
third world countries, people uh that
you know, but today you go to Africa,
they have some applications for
transferring money that are more
advanced than even America. People don't
even use cash anymore. They literally
they all trade with their
phones, exchanging money from one phone
to the other. Certain countries have
literally much more advanced stuff than
than the first
world. But the point is that everybody
is part of this digital system, this
digital currency, whether it be dollar
or cryptocurrency or whatever it is. On
top of that, this give
people much more ready access to
borrowing money.
This also this new private credit is
giving major corporations access much
more readily access to borrowing money.
The amount of money that's being
borrowed
today cannot
compare to any other time in history
including the
wars including the pandemics including
the financial crisises.
So the level of debt that the private
consumer and
company
has is so many words is assuming things
have to continue being good because the
moment things change it'll be a domino
effect unlike any other thing in in
history. Because
now when you had a financial crisis and
the banks
failed, the government can save the
banks. But when you have banks fail, but
also major investors fail because their
money is tied up in credit that they
can't get back anymore. If the economy
collapses and people and comp major
corporations start defaulting, it starts
a domino effect unlike anything else
we've ever seen
before. This
also affects the digitization of
currency that has no intrinsic value.
The person that has one Bitcoin today
that's worth
$100,000 literally could wake up the
next day and that $100,000 is worth zero
or it's worth $1 because simply nobody
wants to buy it. Not because anything
changed with the technology. Certainly
people are saying it's going to be 2
million and two billion and then there's
only 20 million available. All that all
those nonsense. Bottom line is it all
depends on somebody else that's going to
be willing to buy it. The moment that
market dries up for whatever reason or
another, that digital currency is
becomes no different than all of the
other fake digital currency that is in
the market and goes into the market
every day. These meme coins, these other
uh uh fake coins that are Ponzi schemes.
Literally every single day there's a new
one that's fake that they launch it,
they say, "Yes, there's $100 million in
there of uh celebrities and and rich
people." People buy into it. It inflates
it to $200 million. People think they're
they found the next big thing and the
real sponsors, the real scammers behind
it, sell everything that they have and
literally within the same 24 hours, the
thing drops 99%. It becomes worthless
and never recovers
again. If this was done in the stock
market, people be going to jail. In the
cryptocurrency, it's pretty much open
season for scams.
So in so many words why does it
collapse? Because the seller no longer
has a
buyer. So now that the world all dep has
been structured in such a way that
everything is
digital everything is on
credit everything is in everyone is
involved in a much larger capacity than
any other time in
history. On one hand, it subjects the
world to a
major growth if all works out. If the
new technology and innovations produce
more than what they were able to produce
before in much bigger levels, in much
more profitable levels and so on. But if
there's a wrench that's thrown into the
equation where there is a major war, a
major crisis, a major black swan that no
one
expected like we saw sort of in the last
couple of
months. The bubble bursting is not like
is not going to be
like what we saw in the year 2000. It's
not going to be like what we saw in 2007
2008 real estate crisis which is by the
way as a side note already has been
going through a major crisis where
there's literally seems like there's
more empty office buildings than there
are full ones. People are simply
deliluding themselves holding on to real
estate because they think it's going to
turn
around. Now if you're buying because you
need then it doesn't matter what the
value
is. If you're buying because you expect
to need or you think think it's going to
be better then you should think twice.
Why? Because that is already one of the
part of the domino that is already
cracking. Everyone is assuming that the
price of real estate will continue to
increase even though the financials no
longer make sense like they did a few
years ago because interest rates have
gone up because the the uh occupancies
have changed because of the digit
digitization of the world because of how
people work from home and so on and so
forth. In so many words, what I'm trying
to tell
you is that the world is now perfectly
positioned to fast forward a major
boom where things go up. People become
even richer than what they are right
now. People produce a million times more
than what they produce now. companies
grow a whole lot more than they ever did
before
until the show
stops. And when that show
stops, it won't be a
crisis. It'll be a complete and total
collapse. Perhaps even similar to what
the Gar is predicting and telling us
it's going to happen before Mashiah
comes. Again, I have no idea whether
this is going to
be tomorrow, a year from now, 10 years
from now. Only who knows that.
Certainly, there's time to do good.
There's times to benefit.
But to spend your entire
life building
something that's
temporary is telling you even if
you take advantage and piggy back off of
this next
big growth potential
possibly. Know this. It's just like the
kikayon. It's an illusion. You won't
have anything left in the end. The only
thing that you're going to have left is
what Torah and good deeds you'd
have because you could already see a
footsteps in the
creation of how everything is being
magnified. Everything is being fast
forwarded.
Everything is being united and
synchronized in such a way that for the
first time in
history, you can clearly
see how everything can collapse without
any exceptions. In the past, there's
always been exceptions,
pockets that were
disconnected. You weren't in the real
estate market, okay? So, you were
protected. You weren't in the stock
market, so you were protected. You
weren't in America, so you were
protected. You weren't in Israel, you
were protected. There's there always
been different thing exceptions to the
rule.
So when you have a
kadu literally give people the ability
the
wherewithal to
build and magnify
things. On one
end it's to their benefit to have
certain joy of the world.
But that's only a small aspect of it.
The bigger part of it is because he's
telling you and fast forward
everything in order to pay whatever has
to be paid, whatever reward has to be
rewarded for whoever is not going to be
here to see the real show, to see the
real reward.
So if you want to spend your time and
efforts and
resources accumulating more kikayon
trees, go
ahead. But if you want to take those
kikon trees or at least part of them and
invest them into things that will
actually last beyond the next
crisis.
Build a co build a people to do chuva.
build yourself in learning all of the
above, then you're actually using this
gift that Hashem is giving
us for what you're supposed to. Because
just like we have this
major growth and development in the
world and fast forwarding of everything
that I mentioned, you're also seeing
that
doing kiru has
changed. The z says
that it's praiseworthy for a person to
spend his entire life of 70 years
chasing after one person to help him do
chuva. The zah wasn't uh just throwing
70 years. It was literally it took a
long time to convince people in the
past. Maybe not 70 years, but certainly
some people literally you could talk to
them for a few years before they
actually
change. That's changed now. You could
literally have somebody watch
a curse you out, come back again the
next time, but this time he's not
cursing you. Come back again the third
time. This time he actually said a nice
comment. Come back again. By the fourth
lecture, he already became a fan. By the
fifth lecture, he writes you, "Rabbi,
you changed my life. I've changed
everything. He came to you like as if
you are uh trying to kill him." By the
fifth
lecture, you're the best thing in the
world. You're his personal Mashiach.
You're seeing that people can transform
their life, abandon idolatry, abandon
heresy, abandon immorality, abandon bad
relationships, abandon anything that's
against Hashem. Literally after getting
a message in a few minutes, in a few
hours, you literally see people
transform their
life. You see people that do
chuva. In the past, it would be a
struggle just to get the guy to go to
school a few times a
day. It was a struggle to get the guy to
read a book. Today you have some ballet
chuva that literally have the
fastforward speed button on where only a
couple years after they started doing
chuva they already completed the shots.
They're already learning seriously five
six seven hours a day even though they
work
full-time. You already see people
transforming themselves in a very short
period of time and achieve great
milestones in a short period of time.
So just like everything on the negative
end on the uh you know good on the
financial on the a geopolitical all of
that has been sped up. Also the world of
Kiru has sped
up where the souls of each person is now
programmed in such a way where they're
able to receive the
truth and accept or reject it.
much
quicker. On the other hand, it's also
opp works the opposite
way where a person could be
religious and then just abandon
everything just like
that. Just like we last
week, I got horrible news about somebody
that did Chuva a few years ago. Not not
my bala, not my student, but somebody I
knew that from the exterior this person
looked
like the next
Mosheu beard this that said he was
learning. I already knew there was a
problem with him because when I spoke to
him and I asked him who's your rabbi
because he says he watches my lectures
good if you want any guidance anything
no problem but ask your rabbi first
who's your rabbi he said no I don't have
a rabbi already then I knew this guy is
at
risk
why a Judah does not have a rabbi does
not have direction you don't have
direction it's only a matter of time
before you go into the wrong street and
get lost
And
unfortunately this guy looked religious,
looked inspiring, looked good, looked
looked looked
looked. But apparently something
happened. He decided to abandon
everything, shave his beard, take off
the keepa, no more synagogue, no more
this, no more nothing. Literally go back
to being a
What a now I know that he'll come
back on his knees. He's gonna come back.
The problem is that it's gonna hurt the
next time. The first time you do chuva,
the first time you come back
to who helps
you who helps you? He opens up your
heart and you're able to receive the
message and you're able to change. Fast
forward change. But if you leave
Hashem, the next time is not so much
fun. The next time is usually after
Hashem smacks you in the face a few
times. It's after you lose. It's after
you suffer. It's after pain. It's after
agony. It's after you realize, "Oh yeah,
how could I leave Hashem? I'm now in the
middle of lava. I'm burning. It's
painful. Who can save me? The money
can't save me. My friends can't save me.
My cousin can't save me. My wife can't
save me. My brother can't save me. Who
can save me? You cry toad because who
else you going to cry to? And says,
"Yeah, I'm still here. I'm still here.
Hashem, take me out of the
fire." And even if Hashem takes the
person out of the fire, it still hurts
because they got burned and it hurts for
a while.
So I have no doubt in my mind that he
and all the other people that have gone
off the will at some
point get the clear understanding that
they have to come back home and some of
them will succeed in coming back home.
But they'll have to come back
home on their
knees. They'll have to come back home
after they
realize they are in a dead end street
with their current path.
In the past that could have taken a
whole
life person does cha person follows
everything's good but 20 years old
decides to leave it you could wait for
this guy 30 40 years before he comes
back he sees you says yeah rabbi I
haven't put on in 30 years all right
so you're
back today it's not like that today a
person goes off don't be surprised if
you see back in the sh within a one or
two years or even one or two months. But
next time he comes with a cast. Next
time he comes with a broken leg. Next
time he comes with a broken bank
account. Next time he comes with a
broken marriage. Next time he comes
with a lot of tears because death in the
family. Next time he comes, he comes on
his knees and he realizes what did I do
to myself? And the next time to go back
to the same level of connection with is
much more difficult. Why? He doesn't
have the same. So to learn when you were
able to learn in the beginning four,
five, six, 10 hours. Now you're lucky if
you're able to do four, five, six
minutes before you have some type of
distraction. Why? You abandon Hashem
coming back. You have to pay your bill.
Eventually you could go to high levels
even after you come back, but it's much
harder. Either way, the
path has been fast forwarded. It's the
same path. It just happens in less time.
both to do chuva and go after and do
chuva
again. Why as said in the name of
the nothing new under the sun. The only
difference in our times and the previous
times is that Hashem fast forwarded the
wheel of time where the same things that
used to take hundreds of
years now are happening in much less
time. The deeds of people have not
changed. It's just the
outcome for the actions.
those come faster. If somebody does
good, Hashem will make sure they will
see the benefits to it both in this
world and the next. But if somebody goes
against
Hashem, as Jeremiah the prophet said,
the evil you're doing will bring you
suffering.
And Rashi clarifies that the conclusive
outcome of
wickedness is simply going to be
suffering that's brought upon the person
and that
suffering now comes
faster. Even if you were billionaire
yesterday, don't be surprised if you
become broke a week
later. Even if you are on top, don't be
surprised if you lose. Why? You going
against Hashem?
All bets are
off. So
this is something you can hear 50
times and understand it even better each
time because you
have living images of all of this, a
visual of all of this in your day-to-day
life. You look around the world right
now, you'll see everything that said
nearly a hundred years ago in your life
today. And you'll see that even the
biggest
atheists will start
changing one after
another and become more and more
indecisive as far as
what they believe in because now it is
no longer difficult to believe in
Hashem. It's no longer to believe that
there is a creator to the world. Now
it's just a matter of choice. Do you
want to believe in God? Because if you
do, you're subject to his laws. You're
subject to what he said.
If you
don't, you better have a good reason
because your conscience will eat you up
much worse now than ever did before
because it's much clearer that there is
a creator and it's much clear that the
creator is the one and only creator, the
God of Israel.
Them people wake up, realize it, act
upon it, take advantage of the
opportunities for whatever time we have
left in this world with whatever
resources people have. Stop wasting your
efforts on building a temporary
castle. Start using this efforts to help
people do chuva, to help the Torah get
greater, because that's the only thing
that's going to be here beyond this next
chapter that we're in. However long we
have left, whether it be a year or 10
years or whoever it is, doesn't really
make a difference. What you build in
this
world is what you could take. It's what
you could leave in this world. Unless
it's if you take that is something you
could take beyond this world and we all
accumulate as much of that as we
possibly can. Thank you very much for

opportunities to learn. There's many and
there's many ways to get closer to and
be able to have the tools to help us do
whatever it is that we need to do at
work, in marriage, parenting, whatever
it
is with
Hashem in mind at all times. Thanks

again together soon. Kuf, I'd like to
