[Music] we don't really understand what real truva is we don't understand what real truva is you ask people what else do you do for AEM goes no I go to mikve I go to mikve the extra cold one at least two three times a week at least two three times a week and I fast I fast once twice a month so you fast you go to m you have a beard you look like a your payers are already reaching your ankles but you don't know yet kosher you're not really sure how you could possibly eat kosher vegetables only at a kosher place I had somebody Post online today he says doesn't it mean if I'm if there's no such thing as meat in a certain restaurant that means that by default it's kosher right he says listen I'm there's no meat it's a vegan place it's a vegan place if it's a vegan place there's no meat that means by default it's kosher right it only means you haven't learned Kosh because the vegetables also have to be kosher not that they they grow them in a specific farm this is a kosher farm this is a tame Farm no that you have to wash the vegetables to make sure that when you're eating the the lettuce you're not eating worms with it because every time you eat worms it's six different sins meaning it's a bigger sin than eating pig so if you don't wash your vegetables 100% you're violating the lon everybody thinks no no but I bought the salad at Starbucks or I bought it at uh this one or some fancy restaurants of course they clean it absolutely not absolutely not they do not clean it the way Jews clean it why because they don't have to they don't have to put the lettuce and make sure that all the leaves are going into water three different times with salt or maybe with soap you have to wash it you have to make sure you have to look at it I mean it's like a science project just to get some salad they don't do that you think anybody even in the kosher places many places don't do it it's a lot of work it's a lot of work just assume that they're washing no they're not washing what you think you haven't eaten a few flies a few worms a few maggots a few this if you ate in any of these places you ate a bunch of them and each time it's six different sins so people complain oh why did I have a flat tire today why I lose money today why does my wife hate me why does my boss want to fire me why cuz you're eating worms every day that's why something that's tame only generates more tame something that's impure creates more impurity you're bringing impurity into your body whatever comes out is also T so the beard and the hat and the jacket and all that stuff means absolutely nothing nothing the fast nonsense absolute nonsense unless it's an oblig obligatory fast as a matter of fact unless you are be meaning an expert on all of the all of the basic all of them everything you're you're like a in this generation you're not even allowed to touch any of those things according to the rambam the rambam inim says that many people look at the stories of theik like look this sadik used to fast from from Shabbat till Friday I can't fast for a week but I'll fast for a day why no reason I want to fast I want to make myself holy make yourself holy learn some make yourself holy learn Al make yourself holy learn learn something you're fast and meaningless no no I go to mik if you're T before the mik you're T after the mik it's not the water is not going to help you if you're not learning to it's not going to help you might as well go to a pool Le maybe you have some fun if you're before the mik it's not going to help you if you're not learning to every single day it's not going to help help you whoever is giving you this illusion that you can go to the mikve once a week once a month once a year whatever it is and that's going to somehow fix it that's 100% idol worship it has nothing to do with Judaism it's complete stupidity these are the words of the rambam the rambam says those people that take theim of the the things the the Deeds the acts of theim and do it themselves are completely stupid this the ram says this they're stupid people because they have no idea why the sikim even did what they did and yet they compare themselves to the sikim by doing it they think that theim became because of the mik became because they fasted they became tadik because of the Torah they learned not because of the beer they grew not because of the payers and the hats so instead of focusing on All These Little Things says first and foremost understand what's foundation and what's not [Music]
