[Music] chuttan welcome to practical spirituality here in the old city of Jerusalem in Asia tour overlooking the Western Wall today we're going to talk about some of the most important foundations of of life and reality and perhaps debunk certain misconceptions that people wind up stuck in and so I think what we'll do is we're gonna take it in six steps anyone who's heard a lot of my classes might have heard these six steps but let's see if we can take a little further today and the first step is that before there was something there was nothing we're just using text messaging here when saving Asia tours Inc that's my way of donating today so the before there was something there was nothing and this is something that's universally held whether into religion whether you're into physics science before there was something there was nothing now this is very uncomfortable for scientists because if there was really nothing then there should never been anything because nothing makes nothing so there should never been anything and so that makes things very uncomfortable and then comes theories and that's why every almost every large University has a department called theoretical physics theoretical physics and that's a lot of fun there sometimes I wonder if those guys are on psychedelics or something cuz they're they're really creative theoretical physicists are really creative guys and they're usually hippies but they but I've met a few over the years and I've had a few in this class and we've had really some great conversations with them and what is their job their jumps to theorize because nothing makes nothing and since so there obviously has to be something other than nothing here comes the theories of what must have made this place now we don't believe in any of those theories necessarily I mean it could be though hid it but they probably won't because we believe we've hit it and what is it it's exactly what the atheists say and we've discussed this yesterday ends and what the atheists say and what the Jews say is the same thing is that it's nothing it actually is nothing like really nothing not like the physicists say that it must be something we're gonna figure it out or at least accept all kinds of money from grants and stuff to say we're gonna figure it out and you can imagine that the atheists have a very strong not all atheist but some would really want the physicist to figure out something out there but I would tell the atheist not to try to figure out what's out there because they are they already got the answer the answer is it's not there's nothing out there and that's great because that's what Judaism says it's Judaism nay theist we get along we say the same thing that before there was something there was nothing now the obviously it's very problematic to say it's nothing because nothing makes nothing and that's why we call it God and that's why they have theories but it makes them a lot more sense to say it's God why does it makes more sense says God then just start coming up with random theories like staring at your belly button on big grants and university theories why would you why would why is it better to say it's God I don't mean better for you it's definitely better for you who meant you know our whole if we really went with the pure you know that there is no God then it's not just that it was nothing but but it's nothing and no God meaning it's just it's just something that we have yet to discover then our entire civilization would literally unravel and fall apart and half the people would probably wind up depressed and suicidal because it always devolves pure atheism always devolves to nihilism always develops anyone know what I'm talking about everyone felt that feeling of emptiness and meaninglessness the walls not nihilism when segments come to you in a second but the issue of that meaninglessness that Dean is in the nihilism that leads to suicides and and and can lead to resentment of society and that resentment of the suffering people go through and to start finding victims of meaning meeting were the victims of someone who's the perpetrator then you start pointing fingers at some patriarchy or God knows what you're gonna point your fingers at and the next thing you know people are getting killed sometimes by the government but sometimes by some kid with a gun in a high school but you know once you go into nihilism and things unravel real quick hopefully they only kill themselves and I don't want anyone killing themself but the you know and I'm thinking I'm batting a thousand I've stopped no I don't even know how many suicides but I've got a perfect track record so far preventing anyone that gave any suicide that got to me was prevent which is not that many as a couple year four five six year so so the anyway but it lead in but the whole fabric of society cuz we don't realize yet everyone's walking around with wrong and right and it's keeping the fabric of society together it's not unraveling because of this sense of wrong right now atheists also have to deal with wrong awright what are they gonna say about that inner voice that compass inside of all humanity that does not exist in primates primates will rip each other to shreds primates have no mercy when there's territory at stake or or hierarchy battles they will they will tear a tribe of monkeys limb from limb and viciously you know all of you think monkeys are cute yeah they're cute behind bars maybe in cages that's that's where their cuteness ends and those kids are there for a reason they wouldn't be giving you up bear hugs for sure so so the human beings have this conscience and that's very hard for an atheist to grapple with but nevertheless it's there and what is it doing there and where to come from and and why does everyone have it now the the actual with where I'm looking for the the conscience the the material that the conscience of uses the criterias the the words gone but meaning where however you were educated might be different than how she was educated in there for you but you both have the conscience you understand you'll have maybe to conscience about different things and then there's like super massive OCD conscience of people who are in the ultra-orthodox world because I mean you imagine like feeling bad about like drinking that water without a blessing maybe but you imagine feeling bad about it that you didn't wash your hands six times this morning maybe or if you imagine spending your whole day feeling bad about the fact that you miss sanction ah by 9:30 4:00 this morning you read you feel bad about that so it's like conscience on steroids and not to mention you can't speak disparage something about anyone and and the rules are quite strict and what's called disparaging and so maybe they're just good but there's detail after detail to detail and you can understand the atheist by the way because they want to get rid of con you except you can as much as Hitler said that conscience is a Jewish invention and he's come to rid the world of of the what he called the false vision of conscience and morality those were his words quote unquote Hitler came to do that but the crazy thing is why did he try to do that because he thought it was the right thing to do what's what's back conscience he was actually trying to do something good for the world get rid of conscience cuz he felt on his conscience that conscience is bad it was insane I mean the guy obviously he seemed to have a pretty high IQ but he blew that one that's for sure you know because to go out of your way that much to do something obviously means you have a conscience know his conscience what's that no not at all you go to on you watch who's the famous atheist that I always forget his name what sam harris is sam Harris's variant happy there's conscience and he can't just you can't explain why there's conscience that's where he stumbles is because how do you explain it it's not doesn't make any sense evolutionary it in evolutionary terms the conscience is anti evolutionary meaning you'll wind up giving all your stuff away just because you feel so good when you give it away and now you have nothing not very evolutionary evolutionarily beneficial well they're in evolution the prime prime me the primary theory is is that there's something called a survival the fittest and so you the more you have the more ability you have to survive and the more you give which is you know the jewish way is like how could I possibly give away everything I've got you know like like that's that's we think about oh yeah that's that too but the but the thing is is that people are hell-bent on letting go of what would make them survive best because in the animal kingdom survival comes from reproduction you know that's the genetic side and then you've got the survival which is from having you know if you're a lion it's good to have big giant you know canine teeth and if you're in good claws and if your bare claws are helpful and strong jaw if you're a human being a big fat bank account it's pretty nice and and you know a nice home with some security cameras and your own ability to survive every animal human every animal forget DNA every that's a part of reproduction every human every animal is specifically designed according the evolutionists for its survival that's the teeth that's the claws the muscles it's everything and human beings we have the ability to survive but we tend towards feeling better about our lives which is back to conscience feeling better about our lives when we're givers yeah you could say it's society beneficial and there are a lot of animals that will take a hit for the tribe then then there's there's hits you'd want to take there our sacrifice you want to make for the betterment of it and the survival of the whole community yeah on that level you have it there you have a good survival technique and that's to be a giver it helps the tribe in general what's that selfish it's in your self-interest maybe I get to meet a lot of really generous people who I think are almost crazy but but like I'm talking about like like there's one guy who's there's one guy who goes to whom on every year wealthy guy who's like hell-bent on feeding like yeah you just what he needs to feed like 20,000 people and there's much more money the biggest party maybe on the earth is a Jewish party believe it or not though I don't know any party bigger than it it's called LACMA Omer and you have you know seven eight hundred thousand people who all kind of take this pilgrimage to this tomb of the author of the of the Zohar of the Kabbalah and you cannot spend money there everything's free and people are just like you literally get off your bus and someone's like cold-drink you know and you'll find you come back six hours later get back on the bus there he is there he is spinners hold a cold drink tray of cold cold drink cold drink called you so I mean I get to meet people like this a lot and some of our dear friends of mine but the spiritually you could even get as bad as some Buddhist monk a celibate Buddhist monk and and that's what happens if you really follow the soul which is the source of the conscience the soul is the source of the conscience that it's a yak and action would you like me to Wow how do we prove that the soul is the source of the conscience so human beings by the way there's many definition of soul for example I canna milles in Judaism we say have a certain soul but we're talking about specifically here the human soul the one that gets you to be able to talk because you notice any animal that doesn't have the human soul cannot talk it might be able to be like a parrot you know like that kind of talk but but no they're not going to be expressing themselves and the human beings which are called in Hebrew mid bear because they're the inanimate is domain vegetables so math animals are high humans are called mid bear why because of the soul the soul is how you're able to actually put together speech now we have this entire kingdom of plant animal and humans are they're only beings that have conscience no other beings have conscience now there's some pretty advanced features of beings like I just saw an article that a dog has waited now for four years where its owner dropped him off I guess the owner must have died in a crash afterwards forgot his dog there no dog hasn't left now for four years people just come and feed it they're still waiting for its owner there's a story in Africa where a girl was left behind by her tribe and a lion came and sat next to her until they found her sat for like days just guarding her until the tribe came back so and we know other stories of people were lost in the wilds when they were infants or you know very young toddlers and were raised by a pack of wolves and stuff like that they obviously found no threat by that particular thing and something clicked in or you could just say God did it you know but because gods in control of such things anyway we so the gods in control of such things that's fine keep doing it so one of the ways we know the gods in control of things is the okay but I'll just say quickly is that the that the it says in the Torah that something that no human being would have ever written which is already segwaying to the Torah being divine and that is that human beings that whoever wrote the Torah obviously can control the minds of men and animals if he chooses to and because we see that were commanded three pilgrimages a year and which means that no one's allowed to guard the borders you're not allowed to leave soldiers anywhere near the borders of Israel they're all to come to Jerusalem every able-bodied man must come the women came to but but you know if they just had a baby they don't have to men have to even if they just had a baby and they meaning if their wives just had a baby and they and anyway the Torah says that the hearts of the enemies of Israel and the people who hated us in those generations will not covet your land when you come to Jerusalem on the pilgrimages so who ever offered the book has control over the hearts of the enemies now get back getting back to the soul human beings are the only beings with what's that it doesn't matter we're just a minute you would never author such a book and use it as what would depict be the a societal this the societal laws like it's a law it's not like a nice thing to do to visit Jerusalem you come or if you look on the tour it says it's death penalty it's a spiritual death it's not a based in it's not a court death but the guy's gonna die if he doesn't come to Jerusalem so what is because you can't directly link to God or soul control in consciousness you're just saying that sure lucky me sure locking in st. there there's no other way that's not their exercise that sir venture I was I was on a separate subject than you stolen consciousness I was on the subject just of God being able to control the hearts of men or animals I mean animals be a hell of a lot easier controlling the man and you see that God clear whoever authored the turret has the ability to control the hearts of people and that's an event in history the gun control meaning the man can you point me to a 37 there is I would be you'd be hard-pressed first of all the the pilgrimage festivals in the whole first temple period did take place and the men all did come here and they did not guard the borders but that would be hard to that be hard to prove there are many cases many many cases where God controls the hearts and minds of people in New York on October whatever but to prove it without the guy having a thought meaning for the guy he's controlling to still feel like he has free will I've had my free will taken personally many many many times many times for example this year's someone neat this year someone needed me desperately and did not know how to reach me and it was dire urges and I got this crazy idea in my mind that that I need to go to a specific store that I would normally not even go to but I felt like I had to go to the store and pick up whenever I had to pick up but the thing is I know that stores closed right then but I just had totally amnesia of that cross town go to the store of course it's closed it's been it had been closed for two hours this wasn't like it was closing Hiddink was two hours and I myself know it's hours so I go to the store I see it's closed I'm like what in the world am i doing out here guess we'll figure it out and I literally turn around someone right there like God sent you to me right now and it happens over and over and over again I'll give you another one I had a I had a person who was unstable who was doing my seminar which I don't allow people are unstable do my seminar but I made an exception with this particular present because of the ascent and his emotional instability was such that then I could keep an eye hit him during the seminar and he'd be ok and there's a whole waiver to sign and everything but he did not pass the test to be able to do the seminar but nevertheless he passed my private interview with him to come to this work that I I do with people anyway what had happened we canceled the seminar for that day it was when the seminar used to be an hour a day we canceled the seminar day this guy was the only person coming from out of Jerusalem and all the rest of the group I was gonna see them in the morning so I saw the group in the morning I couldn't reach the guy it was pre cellphones we didn't have cell phones at the time I couldn't reach him I just felt so bad for him and I knew it was gonna the the seminars built to destabilize you the whole point is to destabilize you so that maybe you could create a stable you that's worth having it was opposed to all your nuts nuts eNOS that you've now called stability and so I knew this would just flip this guy out but I literally had no way to reach him to tell him I was canceling he was gonna be coming in from television I returned a phone call with a button on my phone I returned a phone call with a button on my phone and and actually there were cell phones but very few people had them and it had a button that you know you press down and it returns call so I returned I just pressed it cuz didn't know who call solving there was a number there no one left a message but I at least returned it so all of a sudden a payphone answers it's this guy answered a payphone in Israel I don't know where he was a shadow door tell Aviva the phone calls from the morning this was like like four or five in the afternoon oh I don't know this guy didn't call me from a pay phone you didn't call me from any payphone what someone had called me someone called me no way what this guy is doing answering phones like who answers payphones I told he's a little bit off you know so anyways the guy answers a phone he had an unmistakable accent so I said to him I said his name you know I was like Herschel and he was like yes who is this it's Robert glazier I just wanted you to know that the class has cancelled today and he was like how did you know I was at this pay phone you can imagine about the paperboy looking around like maybe windows upstairs mmmm I'm up inside a window you know how'd you know is that this pay phone so I decided just for fun just to mess with him I decided to to save her sure there's a lot of things you don't know about me oh these whatever folks and then and he goes he says and that was it and then oh now things like that happen and it's happening you over and over again you don't remember but you have crazy stuff happening what do you believe it or not yeah this wasn't a higher power story this is what's right so we call it coat in we call it Cohen's so then we spoke when students with an S we spelled coincidence with an S Co inside inside the gods Co inside of every endeavor that we're doing but these things are happening over and over and over and over and crazy later doesn't change that unless it's outside laws of nature it's still a coincidence God obviously prefers laws of nature because otherwise it rips away all free will the whole point of creation is do you make choice if God tells you every time he's gonna usurp your freewill you're gonna have any choice but I will never be able to be well what do you because free well means you have a choice but if one option it's good health and that's freewill that they come to your head how is that pretty well ah I see what you're saying so the reason it's free will is because yes very nice question a very nice question and the question is and we're still talking about souls how we know soul and the conscience is because of the soul but the very nice question about free will is if the Torah tells you you know do the right it says it specifically by the way in the 30th chapter of Deuteronomy it says I have given you life never give you the good and life and I've given you the bad and death or the death in the bad I'm the reason confuses I don't know if death or life and the good or good in life I don't forget the order I think it's the good in life and the bad and death and then it says choose life they're feeling thirsty hopefully they'll stop screaming soon so what kind of free will is that if you choose the wrong thing and the answer is gender is lots of free will have you guys noticed that it doesn't make that big a difference to you in your choices the fact that if you choose the wrong thing you're basically screwed if you don't you still do the wrong thing sometimes you still do the wrong thing even though being badly messed up so the way we're gonna understand this yet you want something what they do earn something from doing it they get a smoke now and they deal with the with the disease later choice in life means are going to Starbucks I get the great and the price difference and other factors right that's a short it still do you mind coming up a seat so that my microphone picks you up you have two mics over there no sit next to him neither right here just that it's gonna be a lousy class for the camera if it's if you're if they can't hear you say it again I was just saying if you're if you're gonna say that every choice in life has consequences which it does I'll argue that is choosing tea or coffee at Starbucks and choosing heaven or hell like tea or coffee Starbucks there's gonna be price difference one is gonna be hotter than the other whatever their differences in measure people stops when somebody puts a gun to my head and says choose coffee and I kill you which is essentially what the Bible is living in in a way it is free will exist even with consequences but when the consequences are life or death it's not free will anymore right so it's a little different I think the best way to understand this would be the alternative what if God decided not to tell you about the downside of bad choices what if we just said there's that you left it out how would you do very few people [Music] we still have laws thankfully and first for okay there's civil law and stuff like that but it's so much of so much stuff's going on when you're alone yeah and most of most of religions are also only not killing others because of civil law right civil law is not gonna help us much here but but I'm saying that civil laws I'm saying this person today and people been religion I'm just I'm at your personal relationship they don't have religion and people are killing there less than here and in New York they have less to kill for crabs what's that my point is that yeah they have less religion them therefore less to kill for listen be em but seriously if we think about the alternative that we don't know the downside how would your free will be so in the way you know if you listen this re better if you go with re so now you have like this G wow I have like this big group I can choose a lot of things now because it's not so black of white where I choose suddenly it got real gray because it's not so clear what's the up or down side of any choice and so I can just kind of move along based on my whims more or less it seems like more free will accept what except you don't know the playing field you don't know you have you own no idea where you stand you don't know your GPS at all and by god having through the tour and by the way that obviously seven billion people on the planet don't care what the Torah says really you know you got a billion Muslims of completely ignore the Torah and why shouldn't they Amy why shouldn't they ignore the Torah they're not from the tribe of you know Jacob and the you know the B'nai Israel are the ones who got the Torah and and they're and then you got a billion more than a billion yeah you got like a billion Christians who have no obligation whatsoever to keep the Torah though they're not the same nothing's ever the same thing for as well you're smart enough to know that but they're never the same and they don't rest on the Sunday okay they the word rest is nothing to do with the cessation of the 39 acts of Melaka on Shabbat there's nothing they don't even bring them up in the same sentence but Jen let's go back to Christian's Christian's is over a billion Christians in the world sorority at 2/7 of the world population who have know that it's not necessary for them to know what's right and wrong based in the Torah besides very broad stroke there's a God don't harm other people like what's harmful for you don't do Tigers like God's gonna want to know why you'd perpetrate something you know very well is harmful you know that's that you're gonna get serious questions if you're gentle the the question about the the tour is actual details which is what a Jew has to wear as his or her conscience is extreme it's a lot of details a lot of details we actually know how many laws there are are in the we counted the laws of 55 thousand laws Judy's they were unloved no the 613 are only hyperlinks but 613 are hyperlinks when you click on each hyper link takes you to a website of that particular law Turin never describes a single law you know I don't even know how to makes it sis if I read the Torah nothing so being fruitful and multiplying seems pretty easy but it's not that easy there's a lot of details of all there's issues regarding uh there's issues regarding certain times there's certain times are allowed to certain times you're allowed to know there's certain times you're allowed to cohabitate miss certain times you're not those are all from the Torah there's also there's also all the laws regarding you know when you can and when you can't are like hundreds and hundreds of laws about that just it's written clearly in the Torah that they that a menstruate cannot cohabitate with her husband so you need all those laws oral torah it has no direct link to got anything written into verbal toward the Camorra Schneider's yeah I would have been those written my people yeah anything any anything again the legitimacy of the original book is also to be questioned but any book after that you don't have a direct link to gather food you do have a direct link because everyone who was there in amongst our nation were there and got the oral tradition you don't have to be there because of the Roman bastards we have it all written down unfortunately fortunately we can learn it unfortunately that it was never supposed to be written down what's that we haven't written down but we have never verified who wrote it down and under we know exactly wrote it down first of my first white person it's not even argued arbitrate under what conditions what did somebody in a cave planning world dominance was it was all communal communities of Jews the Misha was written by Rebbe abuddin nasi we know exactly who is Remy was and all the way and the book itself but know that rib Yuta and as he read the Mishnah you don't need that specifically that no that's not necessary it was a he was they he was the head of the entire Jewish people at the time he wouldn't know who he was and we knew about the Mishnah and believe me he didn't come up with a mission out of nowhere he was writing down all the discussions around the missionary in a very specific way that would cause you to have to have certain discussions that were had orally for the last thousand years now that didn't go that didn't last because the persecution got worse and worse and worse so they worked down the Gomorrah which is the discussions that you're supposed to have off the mission I'm persecuted over the years and there is proof that it's been changed a number of times over the years what has been true of the Gomorrah it's tiny things nothing nothing nothing makes a difference what's that we don't know how many times it's been changed that we don't know about we know a lot about what we've lost him we're also extremely honest about what was lost and we know exactly where we argue and anyway anywhere we argue it's never about important things like for example let's say we're bane of Tom to fill in verses Rashi they argue about the order of the partials inside the the head-tefillin but big deal you're still wearing a black box man you're in a black box there are arguments of whether you can return a pot to a stove that you've taken off the stove on Shabbat they're arguments about that nobody argues with you're allowed to cook on Shabbat you can't 100% the award on the legitimacy of the document that over the course of history has been proven to be altered we're not talking about the biblical thing like the new testicle Testament that's been altered many times we're talking about the Torah which we proven has not been altered and the oral tradition which is just explaining how to keep it I'm questioning the source what oh we're just on a long thing I'm just kind of rolling with it yeah I'm just rolling with it but it doesn't matter how someone ties there sits this in the end you're wearing six it's you understand meaning meaning if there's an argument about how you tie them great you know we're still in senses if there's an argument about what it do with a pot that left the stove no one's arguing whether you're allowed to cook something on Shabbos if there's an argument of how what order the partials are in a hit to film no one's arguing about whether you're wearing to film there's no big arguments on any of the mitzvahs all the arguments are minutia and it's irrelevant completely irrelevant discussion of how well we kept it over the last 2,000 years the it's just not that relevant because what we all agree upon we all agree upon and that is 613 commandments and yeah there are some distinctions between how maybe his sisters are tied in but both of us are in the cosmic dental floss here okay we're both wearing it now back to continent a conscience and soul which is how we segue is is that human beings have this conscience how do you know the soul is the source of the conscience so it's very simple the the conscience is basically saying that's right that's wrong that's right that's wrong that's right that's wrong and it could be very gross things like thou shalt not kill Israel you know it's wrong and and you know mmm helping the poor might be that's right you know not always gonna be wrong you know if you have the money to feed your own kids and you wind up giving it away someone else and the kids starve that's wrong so it's not all it's not that clear but it's pretty clear that giving to the poor's is right so all those strokes are right and wrong so what is it inside of us that has this right thing going on I don't want you not to answer that quickly I want you to think about that everyone just taking their hearts right now what is that right voice inside of you such that if you didn't listen to it if you betrayed it if you breached it and this can go for an atheist what is that thing that says something's right that's inside of you take a moment just think about it what is that wait this is the moment everyone's thinking about it take a moment and I don't want its content that was the word I was missing the content meaning the content of right and wrong for you might be different than hers and you know you meet a Hindu they're gonna have their own content we read plenty of overlap okay so one more SEC just give everyone a second forget the content what that part of you that's interested in right and knows that it's that long is wrong what is that from our side no because they because they the someone else could not have it and they'll they have a logical side of the brain but they don't have that I'm saying that's content without the content well the logic your brain would say well that's the right thing that's all content right this simple way to measure what's right and wrong is do and act in a way or if the entire world acted in that way everyone would be happy meaning you don't want it you don't want your stuff stolen don't steal from others common sense yes you that's the golden rule and that will can be found and of course I never just like to take credit for it but that will can be found in every religion all of the 4,200 4,200 religions out there you all have a version of the Golden Rule which means do to others as you want them to do you and that's using that rule you can know what's right and wrong without having an inner voice aka emotions tell you that little system yeah the only the only answer I've gotten so far is how to identify that voice it's much much much more room with deeper it's not so surfacing that voice I was asking you so your answer was it's deeper wait wait for everybody okay what do you got no my answer Dave is the question is not regarding whether something is right or wrong it's why do you have the voice inside of you I follow it like why they have this need to film these writer options yes tribal instinct there's so many things pushing the human the human mind in certain directions any number of them Thank You Peggy okay well that's again that might be a little bit content still I'm not the fact that it's inborn inside of every human being that there's choices that lead to good and there's choices that will take you away from that good regardless what that good is because one good community has been so it's not without the content why do human beings have this where did it come from what's the source of this what's that it's common sense even if somebody was born in a jungle somewhere they'll still realize that outcome of a might be a outcome of B might be B does agree do you not agree with the Golden Rule I'm pretty sure the entire world agrees with the golden rule the entire world agrees with the golden rule which said that it's insurance no it's interpreted the same way it just different languages I don't think I would some kids you don't agree with the whole room what happens with Dada wants to kill you then you have to kill them in order for them to kill you you would like you would have liked to kill other other and then the Golden Rule will break you don't believe in an eye for an eye yeah but then you have two rules that are that are overlapping and in some cases you would fall one rule and in other kids you would follow another it's because in the cases where you for one or the other it depends on the person and on the logic or another psychological aspects of each single human being right whether every human being right and wrong can be defined as the golden rule and the thing that pushes you to it and we want to do good because we feel good because because we're selfish folk and if we think you put you put good into the world it'll eventually get back to us just one theory but at the end of the day it doesn't necessarily have to be invisible magic a day I'm just saying ask for evidence if you were a woman in a jungle would you still have that to a tree yes it's gonna grow food at some point abandoned rack no nobody you could also has a non tribal instinct if someone was left alone on a deserted island yeah and you know I was gonna live the rest of his life there he would create probably his own code there'd be a code created human beings are moral beings my nature but the knowledge of what's right or wrong that comes from Venice and I don't know I wouldn't have gone to anything about tribal entities in the case that of a human being created creating a morality on a deserted island maybe I wouldn't have gone there but the let's let's just look at what Judaism says about the soul in the conscience and then work our way back so or work our way forward meaning just like let's see what Judaism says about all this so Judaism says that that there was this being called Adam we don't know how long that Adam being was around we don't know and we don't know anything about it and it could have been around for literally millions of years if not billions years tor doesn't say so just doesn't say we know that I'm is greater than a sixth day but we also know that there's no such thing as time until the fourth day meaning we didn't the sun's only created on the fourth day so obviously a day isn't 24 hours cuz 24 hours is the amount of time the Earth rotates on its axis amazingly the Sun with the Sun there until the fourth day so therefore the workday doesn't mean anything regarding 20 definitely not a 24-hour situation what's that that's a laser was there any movement in the world that's any movement whatsoever that's another incredible question which means because if there wasn't there was no time exactly yes so which is also great right time is relative to right then time comes into it well it doesn't actually exist it exists relatively you don't even exist relatively to the moving bodies but anyway so so there's this let's just go back to Taurus so there's this atom being we don't know how long this atom thing's been around but Adam of all the creation stories the only being that gets a double creation first he's created like all the animals and the birds and the fish in the film and all day and everything else that was created meaning God created and God just said let there be and there it was same thing with Adam but then Adam gets this whole secondary thing going on where it says that God blew into his nostrils a living soul okay that's it I'm just going right now with what tourism to the gut blew into his nostrils a living soul okay and then it says it is in a garden okay there's a garden and God decides to make one rule what's one rule here comes rules okay don't eat from the tree now what's the one that he's got if don't eat for the day and that's the one really he's gonna break and next you know he goes for it now what is the tree called aids da Stouffer ah that tree of the knowledge of good and evil and he eats it in his up it says his eyes are opened and all of a sudden he sees because if it says his eyes are open that means in the story before his eyes are closer obviously his eyes weren't closed it wasn't like a deer or wherever they were they're obviously their eyes were open but what it's saying is now there's no some awake alive if there's a conscience beam who's down those good new and good as the Torah tells us in the chapter there on me is going to be attaching you to life which is the life of lights being done which is what is life than me but it means to be oh my when I say I don't mean physically in beats whatever vivifies up down here whatever's causing this projections don't forget in Judaism we believe this is a digital simulation the whole physical world including you so whatever is causing your life to exist is called life and so there's good and life and there is evil and death which means to disconnect from the life of life the life giver of life what's called favor loving the life giver of the words of the physical worlds of the simulation so according to Judaism man is just a just a bag of bones nothing more than a bag of bones but that bag of bones has been given a verifying soul and at the same exact time that the soul comes in so now it's got life it's also done it's also got morality it's got the tree that teachers wouldn't mean one that once you need it the whole world distinguishes itself between light and dark wouldn't either life of that everything that's distinguishing middle and so we're all inside this digital matrix here every single it would be here forward with the coaches know but even like eating from that tree get Adam still didn't have pretty well you can't discuss unfortunately and sadly and somebody gonna want to he say good you can't discuss record of you think about it if he didn't eat for the front we'd never be there would never been a creation I've never been in Turin never been anyone's they were saying so having a free will discussion you have mortality now is that make any sense that pretty well discussion but much each other hmm no we're not in moral now because because Adam ate the apple right we're not what immortal immortality it wasn't that the punishment mortality oh yeah management was mortality well there are any patents one personal Adams never explained to the the degree honest and that's one thing secondly at that time as far as we know there was not know yet citavi answer was there no guess not yeah sounds like a snake right now means there was only the bad side which means he had more peer pressure to go on the wrong side and nothing keeping him on the right side which means there was no fee well in the first place which means like gathering all of his descendants more moral instead of tomorrow God is punishing many people for sin they didn't do and their parents also barely did because there was no free will in there so so we always a lot three welcomed them but it is a great question my daughter Isis yesterday is why we hope you enjoy something that happen all the way back then and my answer to that that wasn't the correct my question is much deeper than that my question was about what's the logic here giving someone no free will tell me someone you can't you can't do it and then you know sending said outsourcing the the Satan part of it to go make him do it dressed up as a snake and all that trickery and then blaming him and all his descendants on that sin this sounds like somebody really would sound like you broke the boilers you can blame the plumbing company I'm not doing it right so what's really going on is this isn't our typical story an archetype story about responsibility because the whole when the whole story was when God came to them he didn't say you didn't bust it like my history teacher didn't say you've been busted he said he said whatever I get her and then their job was to say we ate from the fruit were soaked and then he would have said go back and garden to play and instead he said she he said she made me good she said the snake maybe do it everyone said they went thattaway and God said okay you wanna hide and then they did go hide lovely and name then they'd hide from God which is exactly what was going on there this was all about hiding from what you did but you know they did and it's really just our typical story for us meaning in reality we just have to chose to use it as an are typical story of when you blow it own it normal now you might be saying well that's kind of a big like when you blown it on it that's kind of like you got grabbed overall from when you blown it on it no I was gonna ask something else I was gonna ask if God set this whole thing in motion and had a whole plan for Adam to fail what then you got upset when they failed in a different way with that you didn't intend I was all intending God wasn't upset but but when you own it when you blown it own it yeah that subject when you've blown it own it I'm not gonna say anything now because we've eaten ten minutes into every neck marks class but I just want you to know that if you really go deep into when you clone it opponent you've shocked far down the rabbit hole goes on not you what you wouldn't what you would call blowing it probably in this stuff in the content of this that's meant doing the wrong thing you've no idea how many so things all the time they hinted at that in the seminar we're gonna I said I read a senator that destabilizes your weird way of stability because it affects so many people and you will never own it it'll just explain it it's because that it's because of that because that you'll start to realize that this whole creation is just one giant a story created but you gotta own it now um before I give her a rabid nightmare every Thursday we do our very best to sit lunch about tomorrow feeling good about the fact that we helped a family be pushing on this class so this rabbit is so kind to bring money to in quiet food for family that goes to that that cause so please give generously I'm giving this to Rabbi Meir now let's we're gonna sing together
