welcome to our special class on the
topic of be Tohono you're never alone so
I'm going to give you an outline the
class and then went to get into the
class so the class we're going to start
with a story from the Torah a Bible
story and the way the Reber explains the
story in depth in one of his Holy See
haut then we're going to talk about what
actually is be Tohono and what we can do
to activate it and why at times do we
find that Beto flying is not necessarily
working for us and we're going to finish
off the class with a very very powerful
statement on Beto phone from the fourth
car at bad rubber the rubber Mirage
so let's start with our class our story
in the in the Torah
it's a story we all know dream a story
we're Yaakov who was living in his
parents home and we all know Yaakov was
a home boy
so the Torah tells us that Yakka was an
East um Yoshi bear all them he was home
he was home with his parents but
unfortunately his brother ISA wanted to
kill him so his parents sent him away to
the house of blame and his uncle in the
city of Harlan which is interesting is
that Horan almost sounds like Corona not
exactly but close to it so I'm sure
there's a lot of a spiritual metaphors
meeting Horan and Corona but we'll leave
that for another time
so Yaakov goes to horror so think about
this for a moment
yokka is living in his parents home he
has everything he has his bed he has his
room he has his parents he has
physically whatever he needs he has
spiritually ironies life is great you
can't get better
living in Yaakov's parents house a
patriarch in the matriarch gets hooked
on his wife but here he has to leave
and sure enough we know I've been his
parents gave him what he needed for the
trip but we also know that ISA wanted to
kill him and he sent Ali pha's brought
to run after him and a leaf has caught
up with him and said listen I have to
kill you she's how can you kill me his
instructions my dad she sell tell you
what the rule is that someone's poor
they're considered like they're dead so
I'll give you all my money
everything I'll be poor and I'm poor I'm
spiritually dead and you can go back and
say you killed me so sure enough it
leave us like that he can get some nice
loot and he took everything away from
Yaakov yeah Khalid goes to her owner
empty-handed empty-handed and as we all
recall the emotional interaction when
Yaakov meets Rafael so the Torah tells
us that he met her and he cried and
Rashi says there's two reasons why he
cried one reason is because he saw that
he would not be buried with her that's a
reason to cry but then Rashi gives a
second reason and the actor says look I
came for a sinner and I have nothing
nothing and he cried because he was
empty-handed
so here's the actor there's nothing fine
so Yonkers away from his house away from
his parents away from all the comforts
in a different country and of the Land
of Israel in Horan and he has nothing
not only these you have nothing there
ever says if you ever look in the Torah
the Torah tells us besides the fact that
he had nothing usually if you have
nothing you have family his family
wouldn't help him and as the Torah tells
us clearly what happened with his family
his uncle Laban what happened with
Leoben Leoben cheated him tried to cheat
him cheated him
so Yaakov has nothing that is the image
we have of Yaakov the a grave left
tremendously
says she meant let all the comforts and
he's out in a different country called
Horan and he has nothing nothing nothing
so you would think someone like that
that's it he'd put his head in the
ground he would give up and life would
be over but what is the torah' tell us
no Yaakov doesn't do that the Torah
tells us that ya crave walked strong
with Hashem as the Midrash actually says
that the based on the verse in in in
proverbs oz tailor
Lavetta their cattle then you will go
your way safely and surely Lavetta who
is that referring to Yaakov then Yaakov
even though he had every reason to give
up and he had every reason to put his
head in the ground but nevertheless
Ukraine stood strong and he went would
be toppling he went with me to finish em
he had trust in us and then ashamed will
take care of him and give him everything
he needs and actually the verse actually
says um the my geese I got a Fraggle of
the Yaakov picked up his feet mean to
say is that and Rashi tells us that
because Hashem promised him he walked he
was dancing he was happy and life is
great and the rebus says hey you see
something very very powerful about the
story yeah Chloe's had nothing and the
proof is we know later on when he met
his brother
if somebody says keep Immokalee a party
the only thing I had when I came there
as well as one thing I had a staff
commander being in another country the
only gonna have a stick but nevertheless
even though he had nothing what did ya
crave saying he was extremely happy and
the revver says because he was so happy
so he became extremely successful and we
all know an actor finally left love on
he was a very very wealthy man so he was
wealthy a materially
there's possessions when modern America
to call him huge assets he had huge
wealth but besides the material wealth
it says me toss Lena his whole family
was complete he brought up a beautiful
whole fat fat balance family and never
explains it he says look I've Rama B
know his grandfather Yitzhak his father
that lived a narrative stir all the
lives in Israel we all know how Abraham
had two children yet talking his smile
you took we know followed Abraham and
Ishmael didn't Yitzhak we know had two
children yankem and a sub Yaakov lived
the life of his father and ASA was a
rebel the only one yeah Khalid who was
out of the Israel in a different country
he was able to bring off a balance
family what is the reason why he was
health Riggins to balance family and
there have explains very clearly because
he had be tough finish em he went with
trust in Hashem so therefore he was at
peace he was happy he was a pleasure to
be around and therefore he had all the
blessings from a Shem and therefore he
was extremely successful so that is a
Bible story home Astoria tourist story
where you see clearly that when someone
is going through the worst possible
experience think for a moment yeah
Calise he had to leave his family he was
all my money was taken away from him he
had nothing his family in Carlin was not
there for him his uncle trying to cheat
him nevertheless yes he did work hard
and he worked very very hard but he was
extremely successful both financially
and both emotionally and both with his
whole beautiful family he had the
biggest possible success but again the
key reason is because he had something
which we called B Tohono botella means
he trusted 100% in a sense so now the
question is what is this idea of be
tough on that causes you to be able to
stay strong and I said
with a fem despite all different
challenges that you're going through so
I'm going to share with you a Pacific
discourse the classic discourse of the
Rebbe wherever explains what is be talk
on them and their ever says as follows
the tone is based on a verse in the
Prophet Malachi and I'll quote the verse
and the verse says as follows
Hashem says to the Jewish people through
the Prophet Malachi 1/2 the s-pen Omer
Hashem Hashem says I loved it's coming
from a prophet it's a prophecy Hashem
says 1/2 the SM Omer Hashem Hashem the
infinite named mishima saying what I
love you think for a moment
Hashem is saying to each and every one
of us wherever we are at any stage in
her life Hashem is saying I love you
so when a person realizes that a son
really loves you
what happens then Hashem is infinite I
shouldn't creating the world that
maintains the world house that was the
one that runs the world so this has shed
that loves us could and will give us
everything so if there's anything that
you need and as we know it says in the
message about yokoi's
What did he say my when my grandfather
said that he has a freshen up he set
them with all the wealth what do I have
I have one thing as really e ma Shem I
don't have any possessions I have help
for my sin so in other words when a
person realizes that Shem loves you so
were you gonna get everything you need
as you miss them everything that we need
we will get from a sin you need a smile
you need a good day material things
physical things a good mood whatever it
may be how some will give it to you why
cam loves you and if our son loves you
he's gonna give you our baby
that is the basis would be done but now
we're going to go into a Kabbalistic
journey so and we're gonna try and
understand on a deep level what does it
mean when we say because Hashem loves us
and we have trust in that therefore
everything's gonna get good great so we
all know in this erode there's the the
way it's broken up we'll start from the
top see something which will Kessler the
highest fear is cancer the crown now the
crown Li is broken down to two parts
Roxanne and I look so tan it means a
deep sensation of real pleasure and then
there's Robson what it means I want
something it's not intellect it's not
emotions not saying I want it it's very
very deep within the soul of every
single person's human being as one of
the spirit of Kessler which means Rock
saying and we know this stuff that this
expression says ain't love double shame
in the faaaa rocks if somebody really
wants something they'll get it why
because Russia is very powerful
that's Casimir then you have the Habad
that cause mabini das which is the
intellectual world of the spirit and
that's more ready connected to a to
logic logic intellect a holy holy logic
then you have the emotions starting with
us and ending with malice now we know
even though there's 10 zeros but each
one is intertwined with all them that
means in rough zone you have all the
intellect and you have all the emotions
in intellect yeah brought sanity of all
the emotions and in the emotions you
have all the intellect at all and also
rotten as well so now so the Rebbe takes
on a beautiful journey salacious Hashem
loves us therefore we have beat Auckland
in our shame that our son is going to
give us everything so what does that
mean we have been talking we have trust
in the shell because the son loves us so
think about what is love love is the
attribute of Allah which comes from have
set the means of sham is going to be
curser to us but we all know in the
world of the Sphero it is the right left
and is the middle path sin is a rights
viewer Casa means to give why because
customs all about giving it's all about
doing it's all about just giving but the
other side of Casa de segura so just
like acid wants to give
ruler has reasons emotional reasons why
not to give so think about it on a
simple level let's say you like somebody
so you like someone you're going to give
to them what's flowing has said but it's
flowing because you like them what
happens roles in a person that you like
you don't like them all of a sudden you
they upset you and the whole
relationship walls because you like them
because they made you feel good
the flow is going to stop so the rebus
is what happens is if you have trust in
the show because you believe your son
loves you coming from a place of
castithan one of the emotions you can
think for a second you can feel oh maybe
I don't deserve it right now maybe I did
something wrong maybe I thought
something wrong maybe I did smelly who
does what I did that shamans not
necessarily want to give me right now so
you're gonna think for a minute he's not
gonna give you so what happens do you
trust Nichelle you trust nacelles that
weekend because the only reason why
you're trusting our son because you
believe my son is gonna go to you when
he's gonna give you but if you feel like
have some some reason we're kicked in
and there's a reason not to give what's
gonna happen to be taught home you're
not gonna have that strong be talking on
a sham you're not gonna the stronger
trust in the shell so then it's gonna go
away but let's pick up be tough the
emotional cat said the way it's rooted
in my friend in intellect so in
intellect has said that seeded intellect
takes on the seat of cooled Rahman rock
from him is compassion Rocklin is not in
the emotions Rock room is actually an
intellect and the Rebbe explains why
very simple because we all know it's
Essen ethics our fathers our tardiness
Comerica arches a BLM claim I don't
judge your friend until you come into
his place what does that mean someone
your friend he's nice to you know things
are not nice to you so now you're gonna
be upset so emotional say oh I'm not as
friend anymore I will be upset right now
intellect says relax why are you judging
him maybe he's going through a tough
time
or is it Al Gore's timorous
in ethics our fathers what does it say
have a dawn this color are done if you
want ready what knows if you're already
judging you should judge them like half
scores find a positive reason why
they're doing what they're doing that
they're going through what they're going
through once you're done the caps goes
so in Kabbalah it's called moisten the
godless big intellect that means if it's
just emotions okay right now I'm set so
you're not gonna talk to the person
you're gonna get along with the person
but in my opinion you can handle the
fact that you're upset at that but on
them and at them but you can never last
be nice to them that's called money from
the godless and that's a rock Simon
kicks in so in other words so if our be
tough and we have trust in the show-me
say you know the truth is this reason
that should be there for me and this
reasons he shouldn't be there for me but
I have be tough right in what not in the
emotions of a sin but in the intellect
so guess what I sure will find Okhotsk
or so some will judge me favorable Eve
have some knows I'm going through a
tough time I some knows that I'm
frustrated and therefore it'll give me
the benefit of the doubt so that will
allow they be talking to still be strong
on my part but their ever says in the
mind but even in the intellect there
could be you can say to yourself oh my
gosh maybe he's not gonna find the cops
clothes maybe ashen won't find their
reason to justify my negative behavior
or my negative thoughts guess what
happens now so therefore he's not gonna
be be there for me even in the world of
intellect where it's already more it's
the relationship is much stronger but
there is room to to create a a friction
of the relationship and destroy past the
relationship because there's no scoffs
cause although I can't find one
justification why should do something
for the person you right I'm gonna
overlook this overlooked that but so far
so then you have to climb up be tougher
into a higher level
what's the higher level the higher
levels where you go into a rough side
what does that mean so on the lowest
level we say
son loves us because we're good to him I
shall miss guitars and if you're not
good doesn't work on the next level up
we said okay it's intellect I'll be down
the coast will judge favorably challenge
others are favorably in rod Serena shun
loves us just because no logic no reason
Hashem loves us too one reason one
reason only just because now if that's
the case and we are be talking that
something's going to be good to us what
what could break that on the level of
ruts and nothing can break that and
based on this theory explains the
version that says beat Colossians which
is trust nur Shem and they act what is a
beyond so they're ever said these three
definitions some say I trust in a shell
okay Shannon loves me but guess what
you didn't have a problem on that level
and that's why if you just believe I
shall be loves you because he's nice to
you working kicking or if you go to the
next of all shun loves me and he's
willing to give me the benefit of the
doubt five - we can't find better friend
out but what happens when you have beats
kubishime Ave and you go to a level or
shun loves me you know why just because
then it's just because so which just
because I shall will always love me so
back to the point so there ever says one
because it says FPS from Hashem loves
you and He loves us on the highest level
just because so therefore R be tough
finding Hashem is without any reason
without any logic we have trust in
Hashem because we know our son who loves
us just because and because of some
losses just because I shall always be
defeated for us so in other words yeah
quite like in the story in the Bible he
laughed and he had nothing but he had
Yaakov had trust in ash hamman - Evan
loves him just because and therefore
maybe there's no reason to give him and
maybe he felt like you know when he used
the balls credits but he lost some loves
me just because and I think the lesson
is a very very powerful and practical
lesson if and when we were gonna be
talking in a sentence we have to work on
it that means I'll be talking less on me
I have trust neshama she loves me and I
shall be there for me but not because
stuck giving emotional reasons because
that could be thought that can be
canceled out not to give intellectual
reasons could that also could be
canceled out but you know why she loves
me just because it's a guess what of it
just because the shop will love me and
take care of me and give me everything I
need and I want to finish off we all
know in the world of a solute there's
different levels of teachings of the
rebellion there's something which is
called a seeker with dirty were talking
public and they share different our
thoughts and then the something which is
called a minor which a minor we know is
a Pacific discourse which we all know
that when do REME would say absolute
this course in the Hebrew it's called
Shekinah made the barest me turn Brennan
literally Hashem is talking through his
through him and it's like a path to
literally divine prophecy so the
teaching there are be teachers from a
considered discourse obviously is a very
very powerful stuff so one of the
Hasidic discourses of the river Mirage
the fourth Chabad rather so in the
discourse there brush asked the question
and answer themselves and he's telling
this he says Hashem will not let atomic
for a shovel never got a solid fall and
he brings from the ZOA that though it is
or says that any Jew that was
circumcised is considered at Sonic that
means that I'm a Coulomb tsadikim every
Jew is a topic so since every Jew is a
child ik and a shovel will not let a Jew
fool so therefore Shem has to give
everybody everything he's not naughty
for materialism Scrooge everything has
to give you so in the discourse the nut
Mirage ass that's the case how come so
many people are falling how come so many
people are struggling and in the
discourse the herb Menasha ants is very
very simple and he said the reason why
is not because Koster selling gone
through his summers not giving us
because Hashem will not let us fool
Hashem gave and gives us
every single thing we need if there's
something we need it's there right there
ready for you new sacrum I don't see it
and they're everywhere I said and this
is an ascetic discourse oh it's divine
prophecy the Mirage said the reason why
we don't see it not because it's not
there it's there the problem is because
we're lacking and be Tohono and when
you're lacking and be tahan the example
he gives it's like you have we all have
workshop we live in the countries we
have water in our house how do you get
the water all chief do is it you open
the faucet providing you paid your water
bill but if you we all have water in a
house and you all zip do is open the
faucet so if I ask you is there water in
your house to show this water I don't
see it running open the faucet it'll run
so in other words the water is there we
have to open the faucet and there
everyone said the same thing also
everything we need is there right there
everything we have the problem is that
when we're lacking and be tahan when
we're lacking in trust in the shamon
we're keeping a faucet closed and by
opening the faucet which means
practically by having be Tohono we'll
open up the faucet and we'll see all the
blessings and and all the miracles and
everything that we need from the
smallest of the biggest things so
another branch is saying in a very
simple level a Jew and every single
person Hashem gives you everything you
need there's nothing that you need
that's not there for you I don't see it
you need a key what's the key be tougher
if we have be tough line if we have
trust Michele we're sure that our son
loves us and not for a reason because we
did this and we prayed and we studied
and that's all external stuff we shine
loves us because Hashem said 1/2 the
Eskimo Hashem Hashem loves us just
because and if we believe there are Sun
loves us just because that is be tough
line and if and when we have to be tough
line we will merit for the greatest
blessings and
every one of us need in a real revealed
way that's what a finish off saying we
all know this time going through tough
times everyone has their own challenges
whether it's personally whether it's a
family member no one's belittling it
it's real challenges however we do have
the key to create a flow of positive
energy for ourselves for our family for
our community and as the repertoire said
just work on opening up your vltava and
just like just like walking over to the
forces and pulling the opening up the
forces and the water is going to start
running there's everything available for
us we talk horn is key and when we
activate be tough fighting will merit to
see all the greatest blessings and let's
hope and pray that we all merit to see
this whole pandemic behind us and we're
all able to be reunited again not have
to have classes behind the video and
behind the screen and but be able to be
connected once together and more
importantly we connected together what
Michelle said cainy we'll all be in your
shall I am Iroquois - and may it happen
speedily our main
