Practical Spirituality

[Music] then it makes me wonder [Music] I shadow [Music] then she's back stairway [Applause] everybody we're not starting very professionally lately on our live feed but that's just because we the media club has new equipment and we're just kind of learning how to use it so please god it's gonna go great make a Bravo I don't know how : even want to shut that doe you guys going out can you shut the door please you guys want to sing with me there's enough men in here I think that you guys could do some singing yeah doesn't do something okay so I will do a song here's a little song about uh the song is about here's the thing when you're when you're when you're involved in meeting lots of Jewish people you often find them not to be particularly aligned with our tribal rights meaning our tribal traditions you know there's a lot of do's and don'ts like any relationship so you know in every relationship there's do's and don'ts and here's two spots right here I'd prefer you grab those so there's a lot of do's and don'ts and relationships and there's no such thing it was a relationship without do's and don'ts another way of saying that that there's do's and don'ts is uh we got any pens here another way of saying it is love and fear I mean why would you do something for somebody guys you love why would you avoid doing certain things because you fear losing them every relationship comes with do's and don'ts you understand because they because the things you do or cuz you love them and the things you don't because you don't wanna lose them and that's life and that's just life if you want relationships the only exception obviously is his boyfriend and girlfriend but that's why no one should ever have no girl should ever have a boyfriend um no boy should ever have a girlfriend and if anyone is interested in making you his girlfriend he deserves a cold shower and probably a slap and and the why because why would I give my heart to someone who's not willing to take responsibility for it with a ring with a ring why would I get anywhere why would I get near such a man and they and there's an answer for that question it's a sad answer I hate to say it that I'm going to I'm always a little rough in here and the sad answer is that is that that's how desperate I am that's how desperate I am I'm willing to pretend someone's holding my heart even though there's no way I could really let him hold my heart because it's just not safe to give my heart to a person who has not yet put that insurance policy on my finger so so I'll just pretend he's holding my heart because I'm that desperate which is really sad and then and the worst part is if you all you have do is go to town you know even in Jerusalem at night which is the most embarrassing thing in the world is and see the way the girls are dressed not that you should be looking at how the girls are dressed but it's kind of hard to miss but late at night throughout Jerusalem you see the way the girls are dressed it's a little embarrassing and certainly doesn't make a lot of sense after the meet to movement you know it's made it splash doesn't make a ton of sense for women to dress that way I would I would think the answer the me to movement is women start dressing with tremendous dignity you know and then and then treated treated with such you know dressed dress the part be treated the part you know and anyway but the the but but thing is if you're dressing that way obviously you're interested in attracting someone who has a gender your way but why does he like you and the answer is because your body which is gonna last you know however long and it's like you know that's a great way to spend your rest you're like disappointed his attractive man based on your looks you know it's just the whole thing such a joke and it's and it's just beyond belief how people miss that and what victims people are to like base desire like I mean we are not we are not you know this is not a safari you know we're actually human beings with intellect and dignity and and values and you know this is not we're not under we're not in South Africa on safari here you know there's such a thing as dignity and to be treated with dignity based on how you're presenting yourself to the world that's anyway but they the when you meet Jews many of sorry love and fear is that is that love is something you have and you do stuff for someone in fear is what you avoid and it's in all relationships I said with the exception of boyfriend and girlfriend because because the because there they will know I mean they'll just dump you basically if you let them know what if you let them know what it really takes what all the real don'ts are and and what all the dues are if you really let them know they're you're gonna get dumped so quick because of it's a liability and and I've interviewed a lot of men you know number one thing men want in a relationship I know you're gonna say his looks right know the number one thing men want it's really much sicker and you ladies are all gonna want to kill me for saying this but I'm not the one who says that the men say the number one thing that men want what no yeah low maintenance yeah he's not saying that from experience he's just heard me say it before probably so he's a dear student so so the answer is that most men want low maintenance the the man just wants to come home when he comes home and and she's just happy he came home you know like that's what I mean that's why so many Jews married Filipinos because marrying a Jewish woman is not luminol it comes to God there's there's also a lot of do's and don'ts but those do's and don'ts really depend on they depend on your relationship meaning well you know what it's kind of interesting girlfriend a boyfriend have only this much liability so there's only this much there's only so much do's and don'ts cuz you're not gonna lay it on so thick with someone who's not committed because that's a quick way to lose them marriage is where you lay it on thick because now you got a there's an insurance policy for your heart and everyone knows that if your marriage doesn't work out you know welcome to hell you know and especially if there's kids you're you're together forever and it's a just a natural disaster and so because there's disaster it's got an impending disaster at all times you are careful never to to fall in your in your marriage because meaning you'll fall but you're not gonna fall that hard because you're not gonna blow it because it you just have hell to pay if you do that's one and - meaning one is it safeguards you - is that that you will that you allow it allows for intimacy as I've discussed many times it allows for intimacy because no one's going anywhere so you can actually now finally share truthfully and the key to the glue of relationships is how honest you are with each other and so you can really share truthfully when you're when you're married and that's really important and the but but here's the kicker the kicker is that that you can have you can have was the word I was looking for I think I got a I think I'm gonna say it like this and then I'll come back the Gentiles of the world are God's girlfriend thirteen Commandments do you know many laws there are in the Torah you know many laws there are because every commandment no Commandments explained in the Torah not one of them when you meet people who don't like the oral law you got to realize what Joker's those people are because not one commandments explain so here's a document that says keep this stuff with with serious repercussions and not one thing explain nothing just explained but nothing and so you know I'm not gonna teach in another let yes I taught an entire class with a guitar me and I didn't play it yet till the end so I think we'll put it here just remind me to play it you know anyway the what was the point I was just son someone kept me back oh nothing in the tours explained nothing these sits is require a lot to know what they are Shabbos forget about it I mean it's only one word in the whole Torah called melaka yeah that translates in the oral law to 39 creative acts where people manipulate where you manipulate something like from radha cooked off to on some kind of manipulation that you that you do on it which by the way is the masculine is to assert yourself on some kind of matter and manipulate it in some way in mysticism that's the masculine in Shabbat s-- the feminine and so we we refrain from asserting ourselves on the creation on the on the feminine day of Shabbat where we're there just to be in the feminine which is not the assertive but the receiver yeah just receiving on Shabbat and in the I keep I've been up all night by the way last night was meditation night so once when I do all-nighter meditations and so I'm losing track once so are you taking notes ok just write down like just as a favor to me write down beside subject matters because normally when I do an all-nighter I'll at least nap a little except this this meditation took place in the north of the country so I never got my nap which is great like I'll teach a wonderful class just I'll forget what I'm talking about once in a while where was it I do I do a lot of meditation and once when I'll do a full stretch like a lot of breath there was actually a lot of singing it's a very special night amazing we're the best so listen listen you can't have I found it again you can't have a written law without an oral law because it explains zero now there's 613 commandments how many laws are there Sanchez there's 55 thousand laws we counted the laws in the Rambam here at aja Tara and there's 55 thousand laws that's that's marriage that's marriage whereas the Gentiles who never they weren't at Mount Sinai they're still in full-on relationship with God but they have seven commandments keep the seven go to heaven there's seven commandments which five of which are negative Commandments two are positive the two positives are to believe in God they're allowed to believe in God Jews aren't we have to know you have to actually figure it out intellectually you have to pass your threshold of evidence Jews are Gentiles are allowed to believe in God Jews have to know it's not enough to believe and the other is to set up courts of justice that's another positive commandment and then they have five more negative Commandments cruelty to animals forbidden cruelty to animals I should really mention the first is serving anything but God you cannot thank your waiter so to speak meaning you can thank your waiter you could tip a waiter but get to the kitchen and think the guy who made your food God's the source and we never pay homage we never give reverence to the medium so like you can't live without a son but don't thank the son the universe has amazing energy I mean you can like you can like just work vibrationally with the universe and it will feed back to you whatever your vibrations are so if you have very high vibrations you'll have you know it just opens doors everywhere you go it's just really something but don't thank the universe God created it that way God created universe that it would conspire with your will that's why we say in prayer put Santa's you're dead hot you open your hands God must be out and you satisfy the whole everyone Kairat son who has a living Rutzen everyone who has a strong powerful height vibrational Russell God will fulfill that that Russell that desire and and the very good it's funny normally I can loop back all my I naturally digress because I always loop it back today I'm not looping back very well it's lovely much better tomorrow except tomorrow we're going on a trip oh my gosh I need a teacher for tomorrow I didn't even tell Ezra tour that I'm not coming I'm so crazy and we're on our way back from the north when I got a whatsapp saying we are so sorry you're 11 o'clock class has been canceled this morning the group's running late it's like I wrote back I'm like that's cool that was like it was like in the Jordan Valley you know like on my way back with a bunch of knuckleheads in a four-wheel-drive truck you know I forgot to look at my calendar now the but how am I gonna you mind letting rubbish Schwartz know that I'm perfect no way there's no class tomorrow maybe that's Wednesday or Tuesday Tuesday okay let's stick with things rabbi you stick with things okay now the so there's thousands of laws why did the Jews have thousands and the Gentiles have seven I was doing the negatives no other gods no cruelty to animals no killing no no sorry no murder no stealing and that means kidnapping I'm pretty sure for the Gentiles it also means kidnapping anything does anyone know if the Gentiles is kidnapping or stealing because the Ten Commandments no one knows this but thou shalt not steal this kidnapping you know that reason if you knew that you did not did you know that no one ever knows this did you know you know you know that might Val not steal in the ten commandments the top ten list is is kidnapping but here's the big question interesting question because Gentiles don't have they don't have the laws of the bond between couples so what's adultery see Jews have these laws where you have to get married just according to this contract and you can only get divorced based on the scribed like little um parchment with a whole ceremony like to get divorced if they skip that and go and have you know they have a civil divorce and go get married like it marries someone else that woman's a married woman 100% married and the children are what's called are called mum's errs which are not well translated to bastards and can't marry into the Jewish people forever which is like pretty freaky and so so they the way they deal with it in America is because a lot of we think about a ton of women Ton Ton a second women got their civil divorce and went and got married without getting without going through the ceremony with the parchment and the and they so what happened was the chief rabbi of America Reb moshus Feinstein's that song nullified all the merchants to begin with why because nothing was done right at the first place in the first place you understand meaning they didn't do anything right in the first place and so what's interesting about that by the way is that when people become observant who are already married they renew their vows and get a proper contract written with witnesses and everything because they're not really married it's an ending are illegitimate and by the way illegitimate children is no problem with the Jewish people it's not a great thing to be illegitimate but it's not it doesn't affect your connection to the tribe however however children born out of wedlock but children born is someone who where she only got a civil divorce those children are are no longer able to marry into the Jewish people and they could be raised totally Jewish and they are and these kids are probably everywhere but because that's where rabbi finds thing had to like play big rabbi that's big rabbis to say like all the marriages in America that were not observant marriages meaning fully observe it's a weird loophole but like we consider them all married unless something goes wrong and they get a civil divorce and then and then that couples declared never they were never married in order to prevent this situation and the truth is they weren't really married because they didn't go through that ceremony now what about Gentiles they don't have any of these laws of marriage so so you know what the rule is for Gentiles they have to have monogamous relationship they're allowed to choose out they could choose out you go be with someone else they don't have to have a ceremony although many countries obligate them just do a ceremony like I mean us you have to do a ceremony you know it could be a you know it could just be a wham bam Vegas thing but but there's got to be something and some countries don't care but the but but Judaism doesn't require anything for Gentiles other than commit all they have to do is be committed to each other and then they can just decide to uncommit and reap and commit to somebody else now yeah it's like boyfriend/girlfriend they just got to be committed to be with each other that is they don't even say anything it's just a given that that Gentiles who keep the seven laws would stick with one relationship at a time long as he committed so you can have a new commitment every hour but I don't think you know most people who are keep the 7 or not Joker's like that like they're not gonna play games I've noticed most people what we call banane know off the people keep the seven Noahide laws are pretty serious people they take things seriously they're not gonna fool around with you and you're right they could do it but they could do it but they don't do it okay moving on so here's the question why do Gentiles only have seven commandments and Jews have 55,000 laws and here's the amazing answer the amazing answer is that when the Jews saw the nakedness of God at Sinai they were obligated in the 55,000 loss before they saw the nakedness of God they were obligated I guess in like some basics maybe the even the seven only I don't know exactly what they were obligated in but only after they saw the nakedness of God where they I'm getting to sixth yeah fifty five thousand laws what's the connection what's the connection now we're gonna bring it back to couples and what I was gonna say before going back to couples is that now you gotta erase the last like 50 years because after the night when in the nineteen in the nineteen from the 1960s until about 67 there was no such thing as birth control and so what happened was was women had to they basically if they wanted to be a good girl they had to basically wait till marriage to to offer these kinds of favors to people in the opposite gender and and so and so what happened was men married them we're good oh do you need an extension cord I don't know where one is why do you come in close and oh oh good she keep going I can give up okay before the advent of birth control women didn't have the luxury of you know offering favors you know meaning sexually they it just was too big a liability to do that and so and so but the thing is is when they used to do that med man would marry them because that was the only way to get them you know you gotta marry her that's the way it was it was like that for thousands years and there's always like yeah and that's the way it was but what happened with birth control and this also was connected to feminism is the feminist movement was like doing everything they could could to be like men except for they had one last card and that last card was feminism was way before the late 60s their one last card was you know no tickee no Washee you know yeah you know you don't give me you don't get put a ring on this finger you ain't get nothing you know and the that was their last card but meanwhile they're watching the men be absolute you know you know like Playboy's and just wasn't fair because they get men get to do whatever they want and the girls had to be good and so when they when they finally discovered you know an effective birth control pill the women just took that card and just put it on the table and ever since that day ever since that day men have rented why buy when you can rent and the marriage age went from like teens to like twenties like that you know and the parents should have stopped it right there you know the parents generation who did get married in their teens should have stopped right there but you know what they were doing they were like well that's a little easier I don't have to marry off my kids because they're not getting married and then the next thing you know the kids got to get a job now they were like you know they finished rewritten how they're working they're like they're gonna be able to pay for themselves these kids uni will pay for their marriage but like they're gonna be a lot more independent later so the parents let this kind of let it slide except they didn't realize there was a major problem with this and that is that their kids aren't gonna know how to marry themselves oscar's how do you marry yourself up you ever thought about that yeah it's pretty serious issue how do you get that done throughout all of world history every culture in the world your parents were in charge of marrying you to someone that was the way it was every culture including Westerners you didn't are you gonna marry yourself off you can't marry yourself up it's just not possible for you to do that I mean then gelée maybe when you're 38 or something you know within the you know 18 years from 22:38 maybe you could somehow wind up married you know just just playing bumper cars you know eventually you can tag one and paint a target around it as if she was what you always wanted you know shoot the arrow first and then paint the target and the he was who I've always wanted I mean how many of us have been in relationships because they loved us he was the worst person for me possible but they love me you know so that I mean that's a quick way to get divorced you know marry someone who loves you as opposed to the right person I actually had a guy in this class who was engaged to a Gentile and he announced it to the whole class and I was like on my way to the board to like right it was a class on the history of Kabbalah was not about intermarriage and I was like I'm the way to the board to write a point in it I just like dropped my pen I was like what did you say and he's like I'm gay so gentle like what he could do that you know and I was like I said do we have to kill him he says he says he says you have to kill me first by the way I was kidding but he said you have to kill me first and I said I said ah it's love and all the women in the room were like you really love I said what do you think gang should he marry her and other class like half the class of like yeah you know of course all the yeshiva Boys and Seminary girls who were ditching that day we're like you know and and then and then anyway but they were like yes and I said and then this word gob just sends God sends you divine inspiration sometimes when others need it so this was their marriage this guy's married or they're married I don't know who's right so I asked the guy tell me why do you love her I had no idea where this came from but it was the most amazing thing ever and you can use you can try this at home by the way I said tell me why you love her so he gives me this amazing list of nine reasons like that boom boom boom nine reasons and I wrote down the one word for her reason said a row here five had four more here and he fell right into a trap that I didn't even know I was setting all nine were about him everyone she loves him she makes him feel smart she makes him feel confident she takes care of him she cooked for Oh like nine things and and I what I do I said it's love should he marry you know the old guys like yes even the yeshiva people just kidding me we're not saying that and and then you know what I did I took a red pin and came back to the board I wrote the word me either in front of or behind every word so it takes care of me or makes me feel confident or I just wrote me on all nine and the whole class was like they were like shriveling up in their chairs and and and then he was like and then I said I said who does he love you know the whole class said himself and I said no and this he's trying to marry his band-aid meaning he's got a fifty stitch wound that needs emergency care and she's a little butterfly banded that's gonna somehow that's gonna somehow like make it better you know what I did instead of teaching the history of Kabbalah for the next 50 minutes 5o taught a class about me horribly low self-esteem of our generation and the disastrous relationships people get into to feel better about themselves and that's why you cannot in our generation you cannot forego personal growth before marriage and even during marriage if you already got married you can't forego it forgo it you got to do intensive there's no growth and don't trust yourself to get it done and don't find it in books cuz you just won't grow you have to put yourself in the line of fire of whatever that fire is I don't care if it's Tony Robbins care if it's my seminar which is by the way is coming to New York next week and London the week after and it's coming in sorry at two weeks the 8th is Brooklyn but you've got to put yourself in the line of fire something just don't try to do it alone cuz you'll fail and and and by the way the more put-together you are the less likely you think you need it you're the biggest bluffer of all you're a joker you're not serious at all I mean the people who come would like have serious issues like there was a divorce or molested or where there was like someone died on them when you know the sibling died in life never got over it or you know something crazy happen and so they're coming to a seminar ok that's obvious who's the loser loses the guy's got these Bluff totally put together and and mister put together and he doesn't need it and or she doesn't need seminars those are the people who belong in seminars the other people they can go to a therapist you know we're their issue but it's the people or the the the big bluffers who belong in seminars I love this this analogy that I'm not gonna do it going to forget sorry so what we were talking about was was the the Gentiles who have these seven commandments are we're not at Sinai they didn't see everything there the girlfriend they only have this much they only have so much liability the Jews who saw everything like they got they got the full girdle yeah meaning they got thinking they got the full experience of God when you see that it comes with heavy responsibility now again I'm not to make girlfriends in the last 4050 years I'm timeout throughout history when you were dating somebody which was for marriage in the old days we were gaining somebody there were only so many do's and dont's cuz you're not gonna lay too much liability on somebody who you never you know you haven't had that level of intimacy with them whereas in marriage we do have that level of intimacy here come the do's and don'ts now you got the rules now they're gonna lay on it lay it on thick but what it takes to bear the burden of that person's soul I mean that really I mean heart like that person's heart what it means to bear the yeah I ignore that part ignore that part I'm just giving an analogy that's not because God's considered in the masculine you know our relationship with God because we're always receiving and he's always asserting creation god I search the world into existence we always receive it so we're all in the feminine okay but here's here's the kicker you ready for the kicker anti-semitism which is just God's long hand of retribution for blowing the marriage the Jewish people have suffered horrendous persecution horrendous like just in every generation just terrible persecution and and repetitively over a thousands of years and and it just doesn't make a lot of sense because if anything we've done for this world it's given to it all we do is give to the world we're not vicious people we're not even like 2,000 of the years we went through we didn't even have our own government or anything we didn't even live in Israel it's like if there was any people to leave alone it would have been the Jews but quite the opposite took place and you know we were hardly the bully we were people like just leave us alone to like learn our Torah and and feed our children and just leave us alone and the we went through absolute hell and the reason why isn't really the Gentiles fault that much it's harmful because what's God gonna do we were in exile everywhere what's he gonna do because there are a lot of Jews in Germany he's gonna send an earthquake thanking me like 100 years ago a lot of Jews in France he can't send an earthquake to France and knock out all the Gentiles because there's a bunch of Jews living there the way God does his targeting is through anti-semites anti-semites are God's wave targeting the Jews now now why so let's put it like this let's bring the analogy here this is kind of a rough analogy but but uh let's say a guy has a girlfriend which means he's taking her out for movies and he's you know whatever you know done nice things for her bought her flowers he's done the things for her here and there and and then he goes out of town for a week decides to come back a day early to surprise her and finds her with someone else you know what he's gonna do he's gonna go drink a 12-pack of beer and wrap his car around a tree no no no that's something else okay that's girlfriend marriage marriage comes back a day early to his bedroom his bed his sheets his house his marriage everybody's gonna die that's Oh J you know out comes the shotgun and so this same analogy that we've been talking about this whole time plays out in the actual repercussions mod two is that if Jews want to take the Covenant off if they want to get out of the covenant which they can't get out of so then God's gonna like basically let them know that there's no way out of this like you can't get out of the Covenant now some of you might think well why are so many observant Jews targeted and the answer is is that we're all one people the Jewish people are really just all one people we're all just part of one body you know if you're like really industrious and make a bunch of money so you're the hands of the Jews and if you're like a super good thinker you're the head of the Jews and if you're like really good at implementing things you're the feet of the Jews you know there's just each one of us has our job amongst in the body of the Jewish people and when God exacts Metra bution for our blowing off the Covenant and it's not simple you should know our blowing off the Covenant because if you look at history there's obviously two plans for our creation there was creation and then there was there was two thousand four hundred and forty eight years till Sinai since Sinai there's only been three thousand three in 31 years so it's a close to the same amount you understand we have like a little less than half of history was till Sinai and then we got a little more since Sinai in other words when God gave the turret Sinai that was Plan B for this creation there is no Plan C much to the Hamshire Christians don't like to hear that or Muslims I guess we're playing D I guess in their opinion but that can't be if you notice God kept us around all these years and the seven predictions for Israel the seven wonders of Jewish history which you can look up online seven wonders you like all these contradicting predictions that meaning contradicting in that it says you'll be aligned into the nation meaning we're gonna have this great influence yet it said we'll be few in number and we're gonna be persecuted make up your mind are we gonna be influential are we gonna be persecuted are we gonna be influential are we gonna be small in number anyway there's seven of these conflicting predictions and they only all come true towards the last leg century there's no plan there's no plan see and and so it's a big deal that's the point it's a big deal do not be an observant Jew is a big deal it's not just some choice you make like some personal personal millennial you know me generation choice you make now on the other hand like God gives us free will and in a very beginning of our this week's partial talks about so it's there's clearly free will but the equations much more sophisticated or complex I don't understand the equation of your choosing it's not just you choosing dinner or a movie man it's it's massive ramifications that are proven to have taken place for generations and continue to and we're living in a generation you all saw it happen in your own lifetimes everyone who saw this is saw that anti-semitism started and that there is now an official organization that's a recognised internationally recognized anti-semitic organization that's international called BDS it's like you try that after the Holocaust like that was not possible until a good 70 years had to go by and then you could start with an anti-semitic organization that that just would perfectly infiltrate the whole left-wing millennial world including the Jews what they call self-hating Jews and imagine being God like gods like let's prevent BDS and then he sees his own people promoting it you understand like like you imagine God wanted to prevent BDS accept accepted you know when he sees his own people his own people backing it God's like what do you want from me good timing the mosques anyways so so the four Gentiles to blow off the Covenant like after things have to go really south before like earthquakes are gonna happen you know things have to be like really crazy it's like and by the way I don't we'll never know why in earthquake happen here or there I mean how we ever gonna know that you know I mean once the wilds obvious like the the last major LA earthquake the epicenter was in the was in the headquarters of the headquarters of pornography production which was a place called Northridge California that was the epicenter now I would never say shows everything except our Tomlin says that earthquakes hit over sexual impropriety and and that one I get just nailed the epicenter was at that point I'm sure it's different today but at that point North which was was the capital of porn for production but for the Gentiles to tilt the scales like that it's a you know it takes a lot because they don't have a covenant like we have they're not we on the other hand the Jewish people on the other hand are like held to super high standard so earlier in this class is going to say that that when you when you meet secular Jews who are like you know they're gonna wait you know let me finish my story so I had a control today let me finish my story so when I finished that class of that remember the guy was gonna marry the Gentile when I finished that class so there's like 40 people in the room so I was kind of hiding walking I didn't want to deal with this guy cuz I really took him as like a he was my Corbin Isaac Corbin in English she was he was my sacrificial lamb like I mean I slaughtered this guy but I figured he's already engaged like let's save the few that aren't engaged you know and we'll just we're just gonna slaughter this guy and I made a judgment called forty kids in the room 39 kids not yet committed to anyone I engaged to a Gentile what slaughter the guy engaged the Gentile and will and will make a difference for the 39 we're not yet engaged by the way I don't know what you guys think about this idea of picketing intermarriages like with signs and stuff what do you think of that and also taking out billboards in Jewish areas yeah protests like you can go to the inner marriage just got to get through our little picket line what do you think of that it wouldn't be me or anyone like you'd send people from like Williamsburg another ustah protests and stuff they protest anything over there what do you think that protesting intermarriages cuz right now we're all just silent it's just a silent scream nobody's hearing it you know we've lost as many Jews were killed in the Holocaust as many Jews were killed in the Holocaust have disappeared from the US Census as marking themselves down as Jewish a couple years ago they they've had six million Jews disappear based on what the gross should have been six million Jews have already disappeared from the Jewish people since the Holocaust and it was all part of the American dream which of course we call the American Nightmare you know there was a there was a woman studying here in the you know women's seminary called eaat it was a seminary that was kind of a sister school to Asia tour although the girls were not allowed to date each boys because we weren't observant enough and know yet had different standards anyway they said there was a girl studying it yeah meaning the girls there in shorts and tank tops I mean they're like that no they are they become they become very observant there but they you know they come in in shorts and tank tops and they leave in like Taliban outfits and in the anyway so the so anyway this girl in her shorts and tank top would it happen she an uncle who was observant and he said to her listen marry your Jen she was about to get married marry your Gentile fiancee marry the guy but you I want you to make a choice like I want to be powerful I can make a real choice in your life and she was like what do you want me to do and he's like well you know nothing about Judaism so so like so like I'm paying for a ticket just go three weeks to Jerusalem and study and then marry the guy if you love him fine but like make a real choice and she took him up on it food to Israel came to age went to eaat three weeks at the end of that she was like I can't marry this guy she she wanted to study more tour obviously she didn't want to go fly back but where's he gonna get break off the engagement by phone so she flies back she's crying and telling him like I love you but you know can't marry you and and the guy looks at her as Hitler should have finished the job yeah her skin crawl she had the chills she flies back to his rail a few days later she went to Rebbetzin Weinberg rough North Weinberg hutsuls wife and tells the story and she says in Europe they killed a US Europe they killed us in America they marry us the great disappearing act of the Jewish people in the American dream but here's the thing how did this lady study for three weeks and already know that whatever she studied for three weeks and knew that that she's not marrying a Gentile what does that tell you about all the Jewish people you meet who don't even know what Chaves when a Chaves who don't know they should be dating too American dating Jews to marry Jews what about all those Jews what can you say about every secular Jew you meet what can you say about them based on that story if she could know to break up for engagement in three weeks no pressure at all the guy said marry the jente just studied for three weeks so the answer the answers they've never studied they never studied Judaism or they were force-fed and turned off you know that might be there is those people whose were robbed you know I was a with a Hasidic guy this morning tonight I noticed he didn't pray the evening afternoon service before our meditation absent notice he didn't pay the evenings there was during our meditation and I also noticed he wasn't really not gonna be dominating Chakri's in the morning sit a guy and I was like dude haven't I just was blond like do you dammit meaning in Dobbin means prayer pray do you pray and because Jews prayed three times a day and Shabbat we pray four times it so so do you pray and he says he says I put on my tefillin I put on my black boxes and there's a guy with pay is and sits is something he I didn't ask him why he doesn't pray I know why he doesn't pray is because this the education system killed prayer for him and so did his parents and his grandparents and you know like they just kill it because they make it part of school forced prayer thing that is a do a prayer dead on arrival force prayer will kill your pair now in truth is we are supposed to brave but but let them come to it on their own and of course I'm stuck with that too because I raised my kids and the system as well and they're being forced to pray and my kids interest in prayers mm-hmm is nil until they mature but you know till they mature and obviously I have to talk a lot about prayer and I have to be the guy who makes super long brushes and I have to be the guy who stares a god's name while meditating for an hour day you know like I had take things very seriously I mean I walk around with my own incense from the temple yeah let's burn some now with the AC on you probably will smell it oh it's all crusted over here this is the this is lavona it's one it's one of the eleven spices you might be able to smell that eventually my toothpick has lavona on it now that could be bad smell it yet hopefully it'll get around the room Acey oh he's got poked anyway you got it so that's lavona command in jerusalem was like you gotta go yeah we all go you want you want to take off I'm just gonna play this I'm just playing a song and we're done so so that anyway that's the point is that that's the point is whenever you meet a Jew besides the ones I just described the ones who were force-fed but whenever you meet a Jew who's making all the wrong choices when it comes to Judaism one thing they all have in common is Jewish illiteracy Jewish illiteracy they're illiterate Jews and that's killed us that has killed us that's silent scream no one would marry Gentile they had any clue who our people are and what what their tribe is about they would never everyone I'm not saying they're gonna become God's gift to Judaism either but they're for sure not gonna be the end of the line cuz you marry gentle it's over three thousand three hundred and thirty one years of Jews knowing what they're doing and therefore choosing to perpetuate our nation our tribe the world needs us it's got in God's playing hardball here like you're gonna be the end of line how dare you like who the hell do you think you are and the answer is I'll go free will okay exercise some by learning terror for a little while and then go marry your Gentile but don't say you got free will and you don't know what the hell you're choosing not that's not cold choice choices are when you know both sides of the equation and you make a choice that's not called choice it's called ignorance and someone who's ignorant there's a term for that and that's ignoramus don't mean ignoramus especially today when you can just go online and watch videos and study all you want it's just commute to it you know there was a there was a group of commuters to New York City from upstate and they every day they come in for an hour from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. every morning and they had one commuter with them it was Hasidic Jews and you know they don't know squat about how we know there's a god they don't know squat about how we know tour is actually true because they've been force-fed all these points and you're not allowed to ask because a Shila straight because Sheil isn't asking questions is not kosher in their environment in their man and and so what happens the atheist in the car who knew his stuff he was like a real what's that guy's name same hair they were even Sam Harris guy and rigid Dawkins and this guy knew his stuff and he was crushing these guys and so the guy one of the guys who said like we can't commute this guy anymore except they're all committed you know like there's a committed group to be in this ride share and so and meanwhile these guys are like ready to stop keeping Chavez I think they're like what are we even doing like we're a bunch of fools and and you know what happened I don't mean to brag I generally don't brag but they wouldn't ask someone and they said put yom tov glaser on from tour anytime during your commute and let the guy just listen to it and five days later he's a believer and I think by now he's probably observant because he totally turned himself around and he's a seed and were vindicated not that they know anything but they were vindicated by by this commute they have and thank God this class is on every morning during the New York commute a lot of people commute to and think of I got this lapel mic because the media Club finally purchased some equipment and we've also hired a few people which is really exciting except I can't afford them yet so please join the [Music] [Laughter] [Music] [Laughter] [Applause]
