Shalom Rabbi omov Glazer here in yush on
my way to go mountain biking I've been
waiting for the cameraman to get here
but just took some time and so now that
torney time has arrived well I was
already in my gear and I was like I
could shoot the video in my gear I
suppose and maybe the right thing to
talk about right now is practical
spirituality because normally when you
think of practical people you don't
think of very spiritual people and when
you think about spiritual people they're
usually not very practical but Judaism
is the exact Nexus of practical and
spiritual meaning we are where gosh me
some meat and that's God creating a
world that he would have a dwelling
below a a Dwelling Place in the physical
world now I understand that not every
person's cut out for it meaning there
are certain people they just they wind
up what's called migam stuck in gmas in
material and there's other people who
are like so afraid of being stuck in GM
that they're just going to be like cut
off from all physicality and they're
just going to be purely spiritual but
the biggest NAS from hasem is when GM
and Rus meet together so I just want to
share with you that the Mitzvah of this
particular is actually eating the
holiday of PES is the holiday where we
put the Mitzvah in our mouth you know
sukus we put the we put ourselves in the
mitzvah
on on P we put the Mitzvah inside us and
both times we don't we filling during
that time so there was once a time where
a student called me he was at aaor and
he was saying I'm not feeling it I'm not
happppy I'm depressed you know I'm
having a terrible sukus and I said to
him so have you been spending your time
in sukus he says no I said do you have a
place to sleep in a sukki he says no
sleeping in the dorm room I said well
you better put on your tfillin he's like
you want me to put on my toillon said
well not really but the point of that
during suas we don't we toiling it's
because we're in the toiling we're
inside the Suka and the point in in PES
is that we're eating the matah that
we're actually em bibing in this in this
bread of of humility of just flour and
water gash and come together with cl
Israel and that's also one of the things
that a lot of people went off the D
because our overemphasis in r I.E
learning Terra and teila there's a lot
of kids who don't hop that stuff they're
more like physical type kids you know
the ADHD types what I call Builder yids
and so they feel like totally
disenfranchised because if like I don't
relate to toy maybe I don't relate to
anything and so I'll just be mam I'll
just be the guy into materialist stuff
but in fact I once had a group of these
guys about 40 of them in uh
Lakewood and I put on the board two
circles the vend diagrams that I'm
famous for putting up and I put in one
Circle they're overlapping circles I put
in one 612 in the other one I put one so
they all figured it out that 612 most
likely is the 612 Commandments but I
said what do you think that one is on
the other Circle and they couldn't
figure it out so I said that's
tetura but there are
612 other mitzah waiting for you they're
M waiting for you the tour was built for
those guys meaning the guys who can't
sit and learn all day have like the
whole Torah to do and the and the Torah
is really asking us to be involved in
the physical like like fully you know
whether whether it be the the strapping
ourselves with leather straps you know
whether it be um eating the matah
drinking the wine partying on sucus it's
it's a there most of these Mitzvah are
Mitzvah myis or negative Commandments
what not to do what to do what not to do
and the world of doing is you know
that's the physical world and we bring
Hashem into that physical we bring the
spiritual into the physical which is
called spiritual Spirit meaning the
world of Rus and ritual the world of G
gmas when you put them together you get
the spiritual well with no further Ado
in shab is coming our way and I'd also
like to go get a shitz I am going to hit
the road so blessing is everybody and a
good young
there job is Jump
there beautiful um
