[Music] to be a cabalist you have to be more than we're not even yet you understand understand so that's the that's the that's the reality this I'll give you an understanding of like it's not just cabala it's like the wisdom of the Sages is beyond our comprehension so to give you small understanding there is a dis story of disin a major sadik huge but not regular wisdom like we think is like someone that maybe remembers of a few books by heart or someone that uh speaks a bunch of languages that's what we think is a the was known as someone that can look at a tree and within a few moments he knows exactly how many leaves are on the tree amaz so some people didn't believe it so one time a student asked the r Rabbi how many leaves are on this tree and the rabbi looked at the tree and he gave him some big number so then the rabbi left and the students were talking amongst each other like yeah but how do we know he's right like he just said a big number like we didn't actually count the leaves how do we know he's right so one of the students was clever he's like okay you know what this is what I'm going to do I'm going to take off 10 leaves I mean this 50,000 leaves here he said he has 47,800 on this tree goes oh it's the same number I gave you before minus amazing wow wow you understand so that is that is a wisdom that's to us Beyond nature Beyond nature so when you talk about cabala and people that deal with cabala these are people that are not just smart these are people that are they could change nature they do things that are unnatural I have a friend who's an in uh with the uh same um as R FR he doesn't do it often but he knows a little bit of cabala he's able to bend metal with his mind you take a spoon you look at the spoon the spoon would Bel would melt with uh Bend but you only show it to people that know him really well that he studies with them all day he doesn't go and you know circus show now he doesn't do it in front of people because even though he can make money off of it or this it's not that's not for that people that really know cabala which there's very very few they don't deal with it for that they they do things for to show the power of hem has nothing to do with them they're humble people they're pure people so all of these people that are running this multi-billion dollar Operation cabala Center or selling the books first of all a lot of them are not even Jewish yeah a lot of them are not even Jewish nothing they're not even Jewish then you have other ones that are Jewish but they they're complete Heretics they don't follow they don't keep Shabbat they don't keep nothing um so it's all capitalism it's all money the reality of it is that in order for us to live good lives enjoy both this world and the next to basic level Judaism nothing more nothing less you remember that the story you told us when you went to Israel last year huh you said the place you were the hospital was across that oh yeah yeah yeah yeah across the street from uh in Jerusalem uh R FR lives on in a place called HOV in Jerusalem which is a few buildings away from um maybe three four buildings away from where R um oad used to live few buildings away uh and uh but across the street like you know you have all these buildings apartment buildings across the street there's a huge fence and it's a big big area that's surrounding this you know complex what is this complex it's a hospital it's a mental institution but what's this mental institution doing in the middle of Jerusalem I mean there's plenty of places to put a mental institution in right why over there because this mental institution is for people that went crazy from learning zor learning kabala and they weren't ready for it but I I thought even to have a sore in your house with you is is a blessing and this Chang having a book in your house and learning it are two different things you know again also learning it and learning it talking about yeah learning it cabala is part of the Z learning it the real and learning just a few words it's two different things most people don't know how to read the Z it's a completely different language and when you're really dealing dealing with deep Z and cabala it has to do with saying uh Angels names God's names this I'll show you a few things I'll show you guys something that this is don't think don't don't think don't think that I am uh cabala anything this is just something that I learned with just to give you an understanding of what it is okay this this right here is page this is the basic Foundation of all cabala yeah and it's different names of God the the uh then you spell out the word UD and spell out the word hey and so on it's it's the basic level basic Foundation of Al cabala based on the 72 names yeah to some extent I guess yes now this is completely not to me and to anyone else but if you delve into things like this and you're not ready you start saying God's name and you're not ready to say the certain name or you start saying one of his Angel's names and your soul is not pure enough to say that name that angel will hurt you he'll take it it'll take it offensively who are you to say my name so the people that went crazy they didn't go crazy because it was a uh you know so uh amazing that uh they went a different world no it's punishment you have to be Ultra Pure soul to learn cabala you have to be Ultra Pure soul to learn Z it's not for everyone yes there are basic things you can learn from the zor like things that it says that we even mention in lectures you know things that it says commentary that it says about CH commentary that says about certain commentary that says about certain things that have to do with day-to-day life yes there are certain things you can learn and there certain things that uh certain rabbis teach very basic stuff but it's like very very basic stuff honestly for anyone that likes my mystical stuff I have a student in name is sunny I think I mentioned him earlier he loves mystical stuff and really if somebody likes the mystical stuff they don't need to go to laar gar Gar has more mystical stuff than you can imagine go to thear if that you want something simpler go to the mid basic real the real commentary behind the scenes of what happened in the Torah it's called the mid it's huge it's endless hundreds of books it's better than any comic book you'll ever read you'll all the characters you have from comic books whether it's the Incredible Hulk or the people that fly or the people that ran really fast all of them are based on characters in The tah matter of fact big part of them is the 12 tribes so people so people that mystical stuff they have it they have it in a basic level T you don't need to go to a place like the zor or the cabala uh and put your life in risk for something that you probably not going to understand anyway and if you understand it it's a problem cuz if you understand it but you're not ready for it it could be a problem naali was the one that was fast each one of them each one of them isud Do's uh the Incredible Hulk is similar to him all right so there's a there's a lot there's a lot of amazing teachings that kazal can uh that has it's that's beyond our understanding [Music]
