Where Can I Do Kiruv These Days?

Where can I kill you these days? [music] [music] >> [music] [music] >> Hey, [music] [music] hey, hey. >> [music] >> Rabbi Ruven AI speaking here. Let me be very clear. You're never allowed to listen to secular music, whether it's from a man or woman. The only music you're allowed to listen to is music that will help you connect to hakadosh. Music that contains vulgarity, swear words, immodesty or arrogance like rock and roll, hip-hop, and most music with lyrics today is strictly forbidden as it puts tuma in your head and makes you become a kofheer silently. If you must listen to music, I recommend either Jewish music with holy lyrics praising Hashem or instrumental music like classical that's calming. Even with instrumental music, avoid aggressive styles like techno or heavy metal as they can make you aggressive in behavior and language. Remember, the tune itself isn't what makes music kosher or non-cooser. It's the words and behavior associated with it. Our kachamim say that if a person listens to or speaks curses, they can lose 70 years of blessings from just one curse word. Let me remind you what Rabo Vadia said when asked about music. He said, "Hakadosh Boex, whose house has been destroyed for 2,000 years. Who says you're even allowed to listen to it? [music] Hakadosh, who is homeless right now, you think you can listen to music? There's only a leniency for music that connects you to Hashem. Anything else is forbidden. The music you allow into your mind affects your nisha. So be very very careful with what you choose to listen to. One mitzvah leads to another. [music] And one sin drags in the next. But it's [music] not just momentum, it's allegiance. Whose kingdom are you building? [music] Picture a man just a worker on [music] payroll, but now he's in service to a king with control. He ain't royalty, he ain't rich on his own, but he [music] walks through palace's golden throne. A jet's first class sweets in the sky. Not cuz he earned it, but who he stands by. He's just a servant, but he rides in grace. Cuz when you [music] serve the king, you rise to his place. Two and a ben to serve the me, the one we all owe. [music] Each mitzvah is a mission in order divine. And the ship supplies so light can shine. You learn adapt and suddenly [music] too you guard your eyes and more strength comes through. It's not luck, it's not your own [music] plan. It's the world reshaping to fit a servant a man. >> It's not momentum, it's royal provision. You chose your king. [music] Now comes the mission, but flip that coin. The path ain't the same. There's another kingdom [music] with another name. Who you serve shapes your world. [music] Your rise, your fall, your fire unfolds. Every deed [music] digs your lane, builds a chain. Are you a soldier in [music] the king's holy name or a pawn in the hands of a darker flame? Now flip the lens. The sinner's route starts with [music] one slip, then more leak out. He steps from light into shadows den and thinks it's random, but look again. He [music] served the yet. No big deal. But now temptations got iron and steel. [music] Doors open where they once were shut. Sins call louder and he's stuck in the rut. Why? cuz he switched his team. Now impurity [music] fuels his dreams. The Satan don't pay with golden wine. He pays with cravings that twist your mind. You wanted escape, you [music] got a chain, you wanted through. Now it's silent pain. Sin empowers but not for good. It builds your prison. Bricks in in one.
