Why Is My Life Flooded With Anxiety?

[Music] okay sorry but okay welcome everybody to a new year of learning hasem a new of learning a new semester of learning should be a year for everybody on all levels and the range of blessings that we're experiencing this morning in quite an intense fashion should flow in all aspects of our life be filled with So today we're going to begin the first MIM of the balat in just to clarify are really the same safer it's just because of Russian bureaucracy and the difficulty in printing Jewish books so they they close down the printing press that published and they couldn't who publish these mym couldn't continue publishing the mym with the same name so he changed the name from to look so the first say and then the second one is that's why they have two names but it's really one set so to speak but again because of the bureaucracy of government issues this is in the 1800s so when the SW were printed they had to do a change of names that's why there's a change of names including the holidays of like and and then includes that and of those months like excuse me so this is the first it's page 16 and your page 16 in the Hebrew it's column 3 you see middle of the page it starts now there's two the second one is about the tower the the tower that they built we learned that a few years ago about the three worlds and a very very deep MIM we learned a few years ago this a second M of the first one we learned on shabas once but we didn't learn it in the middle of the week so we're going to learn that one now the balatan said it would mean 1807 and he said it in the city of schav shov is one of the was one of the very very distinguished Jewish community in Lithuania schav is a city in Lithuania it was a fortress of very big that's where he said it actually begins with a not from but from the end of the song of songs but as we will see the connection to if you want to give a title to this m it's basically the purpose of anxiety that's how you could Define it why is my life flooded with anxiety and I use the word flooded because that's the word he uses flooded flood I mean in Hebrew and what's the purpose of it how to find meaning in it obviously anxiety itself comes in so many different VAR variants there's no one type and no one description and no one diagnosis and therefore no one solution but here we're going to get a a general approach to the theme of anxiety which applies at least to many people's lives and a spiritual approach to it so let's begin this is a PK at the end of those who say on Friday or other times of the year you know this PK well it's chter 8 means Raging Waters strong multitudes of waters cannot extinguish cannot destroy cannot obliterate the love and rivers cannot flood it cannot drown it cannot overwhelm it if a person thinks he's going to give away all of his money all all of his assets all of the finances of his home in order to buy such love they're going to scorn him they're going to make fun of him he's going to become a a busher boys that're going to scorn him that he thinks that you could buy such love with money and that somebody will sell such love for money that's what says so he says there a love that no water in the world and obviously he's using the term of water not stom because the love is compared to fire so usually fire could be extinguished by rivers and floods and flash floods and Rain Torrens of rain like we have this morning can extinguish can extinguish many of fire but this love he says there's nothing they can do to extinguish it and no river in the world can overwhelm it that's what yua means like flood iton you know when something like a tsunami that floods a city and nobody if somebody thinks he could he could pay for this love he's going to give to buy this love it's an embarrassing thought that's the explains the what does this verse refer to what is it referring to so one of the explanations is there's different explanations in the is a symbol it's a metaphor it's a metaphor for all the stress tius is stress tud a person is tud you're overwhelmed you're anxious all the stress that has to do with parosa that has to do with making a living and here making a living doesn't only mean to bring home a salary that too can be very very stressful but all the stress that's connected with life you know it's connected with life it could be connected to marriage could be connected to raising children could be connected to making a living could be connected to functioning in the world and all the all of the Raging thoughts that people have about anything that's connected to the world their the world that their place in the world and every person knows in their life these are the May and the metaphor is my because it's some sometimes like literally a turrent of water it's like a a tsunami a hurricane hits you in the head in the head sometimes a person is experiencing raging War Waters and the waters are very intense and they're very powerful that's that's the metaphor all the te this of and his emphasis here is tiis when a person does something obviously I have to think what I'm doing whatever profession you're in if you have no in it you won't be able to do it a person has to function on some level of thought but the ti is not thinking about it the ti is the overwhelming the being overwhelmed the ti is that I'm I'm I'm consumed I have no mental space sometimes you have to do something and you do something but sometimes when I have a pressure it's not just a pressure becomes an overwhelming pressure there's nothing else going on you know you understand what I'm talking about anybody relates to this just you two you're the poster boys you're the poster boys nonetheless despite this being so true they can't extinguish the love which [Music] love which love despite the fact that these thoughts can be powerful and they can be demoralizing and they can be anxiety ridden and they can be overwhelming nonetheless nothing can extinguish nothing no thought can extinguish the natural inner state of the Soul where there's a love what love he says an means a concealed love concealed means it's embedded it's interwoven into the fabric of the person which every single Jewish Soul has and it has it by Nature it's not you'd have it because you achieved it necessarily through efforts through tremendous work obviously somebody who works opens themselves up more to it but this is something that is your essential state of being it's part of it and why is it because of the because every single person has and is a Divine Consciousness a NE is and by Nature it by Nature it ascends and it always wants to be connected and always wants to be means from the word to be subsumed to be subsumed with the reality of one is the reality of hem and it's like a it's compared to a flame which a sends on its own you may have to light a fire in the beginning but once the fire catches on the candle whatever is being lit the log it may take time but once it's burning it's and it says says what's by the even if you're not holding a match this fire is burning there's a burning fire there a burning love the inner state of the soul is that it's in love it's love it's full of love it's full of love to truth it's full of love to reality it's full of love to oness it's full of love and this is what it says how do you know this is the we're talking about he says look in the previous right before this this is he says if you look in the previous right before it says are glowing coals you know if you make a bonfire you have those coals and the coals after the burning through and through they're glowing and you don't want to touch them that's called burning glowing Co so her C are are burning with fire it's a fire of so continuing this P he says and don't think that the water is there can extinguish this fire nothing can extinguish this fire it's called shal it's a shal it's a flame you say no me and my case it doesn't exist because I never created it I don't have this fire I never felt the fire if I made the fire maybe I have but I never made the fire he says that's not that's not that's not a that doesn't refute it because this is a sh that comes a flame that comes from above what do we mean it comes from above above here doesn't mean it comes from the ceiling it means it's something that the person doesn't have to make and therefore you can't destroy and therefore nobody can destroy it so you say but I'm having all of these thoughts and I have all these overwhelming raging anxious thoughts he says that's maybe true it's called may but this this this state of being this state of Oneness this state of of Love of connection that the soul has is innate it's intrinsic it's intrinsic to its very being it's why is that it doesn't even it's it's pre-birth because it's the Divine soul and the Divine Soul nothing is going to obliterate nothing is going to make it not Divine nothing is going to kill it and Destroy its properties even before it was manifested and embodied in the physical properties of a person in other words even before birth before it was malish malish means enclothed like when you put on a garment before it became embodied in the vehicle that we call the physical body it basked in the radiance of the divine presence and was absolutely one with infinity Blessed Be he now those are very strong words there's no separation between the two because it is a it's a so to speak derivative of birth is that this reality is now manifested in a body and I get to know myself only through my body but it doesn't change the essential properties of the soul the soul is it's completely one with this is so prior to its birth in the gashi that was the only reality what was the pure Infinity one with infinity after it's embodied in the body and now and it can become immersed in any what so any matter that's connected to our world which is material and this is what we call the Raging Waters that exist in everybody's journey in life everybody according to who they are and where they are nobody has the Same River floating them you got your River I got my River you know every house has its own River its own pond it's own May every every has its own that's none of these Waters can ever extinguish the fire nothing can extinguish this state that there is an AA a love and a Chuka Chuka is desire and it's not it's it's unbelievable it's extraordinary N means stupendous it's aell it's wondrous and what's the and Thea is I want to be one with to to be subsumed above above means with the reality of abess with the perspective of Life which Isa the Divine perspective of an so this is a confidence that a person ought to have that I may I may have to go deeper I have to go deeper but I should never doubt this state of being this AA and this intense and and exceptional and Powerful desire for love and connection nothing can obliterate even if the May Rim seem overwhelming so what do you mean you can have a big fire that's not extinguished by a regular rain it's all Z but sometimes you have a tsunami you have a hurricane right and the whole ocean the ocean comes up Kal and it floods even the most beautiful city with tall buildings and houses and so forth there's no protection so sometimes emotionally we know what that feeling is it's like atan so this is the statement inim that no because if you're talking about a flame that was created by a person and it has an expiration date and it has a certain finite power I understand it could be extinguished but since you're talking about something that is rooted in a pre-creation reality it's rooted in the Creator himself it's the ins it's infinity and that is the most natural state of being of the soul that it wants to be one one with a and when you say one with a it doesn't mean one with a one with something abstract that uh we don't even know what it is it means one with the ins and everything it wants to be one with with real reality with with the with hasem and everything and in everybody including in itself so nothing can extinguish this this even if it's concealed as he calls it an a because the state of the Soul pre birth and after birth that remains but now he adds two lines which is really the of the smim because the question obviously is you know don't give me your honey and don't give me your sting you're coming into a world with a lot of challenges and then you tell me but by the way you're still a good boy you don't have to send me out into the desert and call me a good boy he [Music] says truth is that precisely through the enclo itself the journey through in in the Mayim in the Raging Waters the soul can reach a much deeper ER State much deeper than it was before it came into the will be explained and this now Begins the explanation we don't only want to redeem the person we want to redeem the anxiety of the person we don't only want to redeem the person and say beyond all the layers you know deep down you're good I'm not deep down I'm here I'm at the surface so we want to redeem also the you understand we want to redeem the the the the the Raging thoughts he also wants to redeem and that's what integration could mean these are also called the Waters of it says in says to the nvi I have made an oath that the Waters of n will never pass again on the earth there will never be another flood that will destroy all of the earth and the same I have made an oath not to be angry at you not to be upset at you not to burn my wrath against you so he calls this flood May and that's that's and that's a metaphor for anger for for for negative passion again screaming at you that's considered I made an oath not to do this is talking about the of the future but what does this mean it's interesting that the Waters of the flood are called May it's his Waters it's God's waters on the contrary he's the one who was protected from the waters and he saved the world from these Waters cuz he had his T he calls it may the Waters of so he could say well it was the Waters of his time it's called says those words are very what does the word mean is not just the one who rescued the world from the flood the word and the flood are two opposite words cuz the word means relaxed what we would call in English serenity means the spirit is relaxed the this is an expression from The Zo it's like when a person relaxes from work in the of what do we say right so take a look in the ation is which is the letters of so shabus that's what chabas is the word chabas in Aramaic is he relaxed he rested it's a state of rest there's two there's two states of Serenity there's something called a lower level of shabas the higher level of shabas a higher level of a lower level of there's something called that's the future shabas the lower level of shabas you can't say it's K shabas so in itself there's two states and shabas itself there's two states remember in the the whole M was based on two levels of shabas that's why the gor says if they keep two shabas they'll be redeemed and the other gar says only one shabas explain there's two levels in chabas so one second May then means what the Waters of Serenity so now the words may seem almost very very bizarre and very surreal the Waters of Serenity really that's how you define those Waters so this is the opening to the explanation that sometimes the Mayim Bring It's called The Waters of the Waters of but those Waters were the very antithesis of ran away from the waters whole mble doesn't seem to make sense if it was just to remove and destroy all the people who were so corrupt and sinful what do you need so much drama so much fanfare such a rash such a TL such a commotion in one moment hem could eliminate them even without a flood this whole you know para it's very very detailed how it happens 40 days and 40 nights and has to build a Tav for 120 years and bringing all the it's very very dramatic take marus what happened by marus in a moment they passed away you have it by in different stories of tanak what was this whole thing in a whole year it's a whole year but the Raging Waters and everything was flooded what what what do you need it for the truth is that was only one part of it the truth is the flood came to cleanse the earth the earth needed a t cleansing a washing it needed a if you look in he keeps on emphasizing the Earth is filled with robbery the Earth is filled with corruption the the planet the planet was ruined it [Music] needed the mble the flood was basically a cosmic M the Earth was put into a mik and just like aik is 40 why 40 so the says because you need water that the whole goof should be able to be submerged in it not even a finger or even my strands of here should be out of the m so you need me because less you won't be able to put your whole body in it so the mble had to come for 40 days which are equivalent to 40 what does it say in the PK that even the tallest mountain right was submerged in the water so the whole earth was in a mik and nothing was sticking out why is that so important that even the tallest mountain it say the tallest mountains were submerged in the water and if not if the peak of the mountain was sticking out of the water then it's so the 40 days the number 40 is like the 40 we don't need to be in the m 40 days because a person has a limited amount you have the whole planet so to get it all into a Mikvah the whole earth into a Mikvah it the 40 days and what did the Mikvah accomplish it wasn't just to eliminate the corruption and the Sinners that could have happened in a moment but it was a cleansing process to transform the very fabric the very chemistry so to speak of the earth that's where the T keeps on emphasizing [Music] the the whole erit the whole erit needed to be cleansed usually ah you you're also touching the ground in the m standing up you're not fully in the water you're not you're not in the water no so land is not you have to surround the whole yeah but it says it says that the the water from below and the water from the Met so the Earth was from both sides the went up and go ship the whole world was ship FL The Waters from above met the waters from below it was like [Music] pre-creation that's what it says you take a look at yeah yeah he's just quoting the so this is the V of the [Music] that's why it's called May it's Waters that created a new a new Serenity a new reality on one level the Mable was terrifying he's not taking away that it's terrifying it was terrifying but it was also something else because because anxiety is terrifying that's going to be the metaphor it's terrifying it's overwhelming he's not turning the mble here into you know a bliss G the mble was the mble but if it was just to eliminate the Sinners and get rid of them you didn't need a mble there was a whole other element of mble and that is a new world was created as a result Say by he saw a new world it was a new a new planet Earth a new planet Earth a different Consciousness a different state of being the waters created a new type of a new type of a new type of and essentially this also gives perspective in the whole story because if you think about it what really happened if you look at the PUK of the Mable it's very interesting it really it's a description of what the Earth looked like in the beginning of creation if you go to the beginning it says so there's hovering over the water so state of water and then what happens hasem says suddenly now the waters should have a separation with the firmament but it's still everything is water and then on the third day let the waters Retreat into oceans and rivers and seas and let Yash emerge what basically happened by the mble it went back to that place it says the came up the windows of Heaven and the rain came down so the two waters met and met and it went back to the it was a second creation that's saying the mble wasn't to destroy the mble was to recreate the world you know reset right what do you do Control Alt Elite what do you guys brilliant programmers do I just shut it off complete you know rebooting but not just rebooting not just the software the hardware a a complet like a a new Bri Asylum a new Bri Asylum a New Covenant a new bris civilization a new civilization but not just in the sense ofch technically you had to start everything a new but he says Also spiritually and and and something changed in the process it was a different type of creation how do you know because after the first creation God said I'm going to destroy it it it's not capable of healing after the second one he says there's never going to be a mble again I'm never going to do this again why not why not what wow you never thought of this huh a hold it and the ver say it's expressing the rainbow the ma say what's this rainbow rainbow is a natural phenomenon after rain you go out the sun is refracted it's reflected you have a rainbow it's a sign that it's push to Natural reality so the mam explained that before the mble there was no rainbow because there was a density that didn't allow the Sun be reflected that way so there was no rainbow after the Mable there was a lightness there was a refinement in the atmosphere that allowed for the rainbow so the physical rainbow was also a result of the Tyra of the mble what does it represent spiritually and this is going to be a very powerful point before the mble you see that people lived who knows how long close to A Thousand Years Adam lived 930 years there was a man yet had lived 962 the oldest man lived 969 even those who lived Who had who lived less died very young you know he was 300 and change after the Mable it says 120 years that's already you know that's Schamus so everything changed the world became weaker you don't have the Giants you're not living a thousand years so after the mble the world becomes much weaker on the other hand after the mble the world is secured so does it become weaker does it become stronger the answer is that that's that's exactly the change Preble the world was living off God's grace Hashem said I'm the custodian I'm the boss this is my ship it's my world I run it as long as you're in my classroom good the moment you run away from the classro you don't have a world anymore and that's why they were living close to a thousand years they were loing living off Infinity's Grace the mble God said now it's your world it's your world it's now yours so the number of years is much smaller because it's it's it's now it's now the persons and the mble allowed the cleansing allowed that you should always be able to find within yourself the ability to rejuvenate it's there inside nothing will be able to destroy that so you always have the resources to come back the ne on gave a metaphor he says there's two types of teachers we're talking about real real teachers there's a teacher he said this Marshall a teacher who's a brilliant man and he sits with the students and he knows how to explain things amazingly and whatever he says they could repeat to other people but if they have to teach something that they never heard from their teacher about they have nothing to say he didn't teach them how to think on their own he taught them amazing material that they can then communicate and communicate brilliantly cuz they get it but all they they can be is they could be recipients so it's not a real teacher a real teacher teaches the student not what to say but he teaches them the methodology how to get there yeah you see it in every field in music you see it in therapist for example the therapist they read textbooks and they may be smart so they know all the information but they don't own it you don't own it that's ultimately I'm I'm a parrot I know how to say over things it's a Galan a student who hears and hears and hears But ultimately he could say over it's not his it's not hers and then you have you know you have a leader who creates followers and you have a leader who creates leaders it's a different experience to create leaders you can't just give them information you have to give them everything you have to give them what you have you understand it's not a teacher who gives classes he gives explanations he teaches them how he got there that's much much harder it's methodology it's formula it's perspective it's teaching the person how to think so now this teacher has changed this student has changed forever even if he's not in the presence of the teacher and even if he's dealing with something the teacher never told him he has it in himself it's a different type of gift he says pre the mble Hashem was like teacher number one after the mble it's like teacher number two pre the mble Hashem says it's all this is my world you want to be in my class unbelievable so as long as they were close to God it was a beautiful World A Thousand Years the moment they detach from God there's no life anymore they didn't he didn't destroy them they destroy themselves you know a person takes drugs non-stop you fry your brain there's nothing left they destroy themselves the mble was already stage two they destroy themselves why CU they detached from the source of life we need oxygen right if I if I cut off the source of oxygen I can't live that's because the oxygen was coming from above and after the mble the oxygen is within the spiritual oxygen is within so even when you step away from God you didn't step away cuz it's inside of you that's the they went through a Mikvah it's a different now know world he turned the human being into a true partner you're not my students anymore you're now my you're now my partners that's the mik is talking about that mik creates a different type of water a different type of May a mik creates now a mikah is scary why is a Mikvah scary because if you stay in the Mikvah too long you know what happens yeah you don't come out a Mikvah means I'm going into a space where there's potential of death why is that the prerequisite for that's the point in order to be able to go through that transformation from pre mobble to post mobble I have to go through an experience where everything I know about myself I almost lose to the point that if I stay there too long there's nothing left of me why does a Mikvah create cleansing what's this idea take a shower take a shower people always ask take a shower I don't mean here and people so today have spas and they're beautiful and they're like jacuzzi which is a d God right but I'm mik weren't always uh I don't know if you know the B once said that he has 10 10 big things that uh he uh he feels he was saved from prison and one of them was I don't know if you know that he created the mechanism in Eastern Europe to be able to heat up mikas it was not non-existing it's a whole story but uh it was was a going to the Mikvah for women was not a p thing was very very complicated especially in terms of coldness you're talking about Eastern Europe you're talking here about bellus and Russia and Ukraine winter can get uh winter huh muddy muddy and and free freezing so so so what happens in a Mikvah what happens in a mik why can't you have a outside of the Mikvah and the answer is because if part of me is outside of the Mikvah then the Mikvah can't create that transformation the mik creates a transformation where I'm going into a place where I really don't exist at the moment and if I stay there I'm not going to exist I'm going to I won't live emotionally what does that mean emotionally there's a place here it's like a mobble it's essentially a place of of of Destruction and it's that that allows a new a new a new Serenity that's what allows the transformation because of that M that's why it's called May so this is the beginning of the explanation why there is the are not just to make your life hard the May are not here to make your life hard the Mayim are here to create May a different type of Serenity so you'll say really you know my mble my mble ain't creating no Serenity right so it's it's a very this is an important question because these are not small words here you know if he just says okay it's a and and you'll get through it and you'll go TOA and you're going to get a lot of uh you know brownie points for your anxiety somebody once told me you know I'm I have anxiety non-stop but it's worth it cuz I'm going to have that's not what the balatan is saying here he's not saying this world is supposed to be miserable and the more anxiety you have it's like you have tickets you know when you go to amusement parks right and you get tickets and you can go on rides so you know I have anxiety for 90 years I have like 9,000 tickets I can go on every roller coaster in so some people see it that way but that's not the ver the ver is that the May is called May so this is a very sensitive uh very sensitive n okay so this is where we're going to stop here and tomorrow morning we'll continue the discussion 7 45 everybody have a beautiful day and a Serene day together with all the Mayim that Hashem has blessed us with today h and when the may come into the brain today ask them if if if they want to give you they want to destroy you they may have an interesting answer for you it's a nice idea God didn't know that before the first creation of course he knew it Rashi says the famous Rashi at the end of BAS but that itself is the process I guess first the student needs to sit at the feet of the master and just receive you can't become a Masia before you become a maval you can't skip you can't be a leader before you're a follower you can't be a Reb if you're not a student right they're not called they're called tal why you should be called a you never thought about this right in Yesa they never called you a for the man for writes this you call it why at one point there's a rabbi in Atlanta is today Rabbi Emanuel Feldman he wrote a book it's called Tales out of as Tales out of a it's a very funny book so he writes he came to Atlanta as a rabbi in the early 1950s on a train so he writes how the ignorance of American balam in the 1950s so once after M he was sitting in the library and he was learning Stark he saw that the president of the board of the synagogue is looking and he didn't he seemed very discontent and later he heard that he called the board meeting and he said the rabbi deceived us what happened the rabbi told us at the first meeting that he graduated 10 years ago but I saw him learning it was obviously he was preparing for an exam and he didn't graduate 10 years ago right so he said the fact that he was learning that was a very bad sign it's like you're supposed to know your stuff already the moment you become is right one of the most dangerous things for a for a rabbi really any person in an influential career is to say I know everything there is to know right if you come into a doctor and he tells you everything there is to know about medicine I know everything choose another doctor if you're com to a therapist and he says everything there is to know about the human brain about human behavior I know Choose Yourself another therapist if you come into a rabbi and he says everything there is to know about truth everything I know Choose Yourself another person because uh talal cuz you're dealing with infinity what do you mean you know everything there is to know the AR speaks about a level of godliness that's called is the head that's unknown so the balat writes it's unknown even to itself it's unknowing even to itself to understand what it means but so so so that's the process I can't just become uh did I answer your question or no h no obviously obviously the level of corruption was such that it was not salvageable the civilization couldn't go anywhere that's what I was explaining when all you give a student is the connection with you the moment he's out of the classroom the moment he's disconnected right it's like cutting off the oxygen line so then ultimately there's not going to be any life anymore they detached themselves from the source and when they detach themselves their life was going nowhere they were destroying themselves and each other the mble the mik created that the relationship is internal it's innate it's who you are so you can't connect you can't disconnect you can only think you're disconnected that was a transformation that's a very big difference being really disconnected Ed that can't happen if they could really happen so then there's sometimes no hope but if it's only an appear in disconnection I feel disconnected I'm not experiencing the connection but if the light is inside of me or put it this way this is who I really am it just may be an exile so now what I need is I need a search I need to go deeper you tell what I'm saying so the potential for Perpetual healing was created because there could never be a situation where you're so damaged you're just damaged sometimes it looks like it right do you ever look at a person and say you're damaged Beyond repair you ever do it with a patient you want to do it some times right like you mobble mobble you the mble you want to do it sometimes right that the guy is so there's like no hope so it sometimes looks like it and with each of us it can look at it that way but that that's the Mikvah it's a new the mble wasn't a punishment he says only it was a new creation it was a new Bri it was a second Bri and a different type of came out it was that went through the Mikvah so if there's a 50th level of tumor because the light is now inside each one of usel world could corrup and each person could remain connected is not an inent well so that's what he's saying that somewhere in the earth there is the potentiality for Rejuvenation in the Earth yeah yeah yeah this doesn't mean the world can't become a dark place we all know what happened with Nazi Germany we all know what happens uh in uh you know uh fundamentalist uh Islamic locals we know what's happening in Iran now this doesn't mean the world can't become a corrupt Place Redemption but Redemption he says there won't be a mble again so why are we so weak we're so strong the answer is that's why we're so weak because now the strength is from within yeah you can't live a thousand years you can't live a thousand years you're almost your inspiration is coming from within yourself God says now it's your world it's your world you you you have it you're Divine it's your world huh is the Messianic period the period of redemption the reset now yeah so in other words we we don't have to be destroyed right to be recreated there's there's a different sort of transformation is that the idea yeah even though it seems yeah yeah yeah notv the whole thing why could should could have just made a plague and killed everybody how does the mamos of land get corrupt how can land become corrup you see that the took over all the cities it's a good question how could land become corrupt people took over all Landes right it's a great question and the answer is just like you have doesn't mean a land where Jews live right the first rash is why does the T to start with the story of Bas it's a Jewish Constitution start with with with with uh you want to tell me history fine give a history lesson says is a book doesn't start off with the creation of the world it starts off how you wake up in the morning say that's rashi's question what's his answer his answer is that one day Jews are going to be approached by the Nations Rashi wrote this in the 10 hundreds how did he know and they're going to tell the Jews list them at them list them then the Jews they were Crusaders Jews didn't never they said it was ours Rashi says they're going to say to the Jews list at you're a bunch of thugs cuz you conquered the nations of Shiva and for that purpose the whole title was written that Jews should be able to speak to the United Nations and have a good answer the whole title that's what Rashi says Yeah question is what's this list mam your thieves what you never heard of War what the Jews are the only one who conquered land theat is is a different idea is not a land where Jews live is a land of jewishness the earth of is different Earth says says unbelievable V I look at the is a mountain like a boulder like big tall rocks or mountains I look at the peak of all the mountains of AR and what do I see in the mountains I see a mirror of the Jewish soul I see I it's like you see a mountain and you see a person in the mountain that's what B says it's not er a land where Jews happen to live like Jew people live in America people live in Australia people no it's a yeah in Israel secular Israelis still debate Herzel wrote a book yeah Juden Juden means the Jewish State what does that mean is it the state of the Jews or is it a Jewish state was a very very secular Jew but what does really mean not a land of the Jews land there's mitv on the earth there's Mitzvah on the earth what do you want from the earth if I grow tomatoes if I grow vegetables if I grow apples here in M no problem suddenly the Earth has Mitzvah what do you want from the earth is a Mitzvah on the Earth it's a different type of Earth it's a different and the reason is because Earth is organic you know we look at Earth as just Earth how do you contaminate Earth but really it's a dynamic Planet it's a dynamic and the human being has a symbiotic relationship with everything Rashi says the animals became corrupt how do animals become corrupt the answer is because a person is at the vortex of of creation you're the eyee of the storm so therefore there is a very deep organic relationship between the man and the universe there's a there's a in unbelievable who did he say let's make who's NASA rash says who's let's make I make so it says Hashem turned remember Man was created last he turned to the all of creation everything and he said NASA let's make man in other words man is made up of what of everything he turned to the squirrels and he turned to the elephants he turns to the flamingos and he turned to the giraffes he turned to the zebras and he turned to the black holes he turned to the vegetation and he turned to the Sun and the Moon and the galaxies and the planets and he Ser turned to Every Mountain and every ocean and he said nasam Adam is made up of everything that's why Adam could be masak and everything and Adam could be malal everything he turned to the whole universe and he said Nas together we're going to make man and that's why people are m m why am I a flamingo some days I'm a flamingo other days I'm a giraffe other days I'm a squirrel other days I'm a monkey other days I'm a chimpanzee other days I'm a groundhog right other days I'm the Sun and other days I feel like Earth who are you and the answer is [Music] hear not no not I saw from the turned to he said all the and all the of the world and the whole un said we're all together you're all part of this you're all so the human being is is is is is very is is interconnected our nervous system is interconnected to every n of the right we take responsibility for the world why because we're made up of the world I don't look at the Moon and say oh that's a nice moon no no no no the Moon is inside of me I look at the sun it's not a nice sun the sun is inside of me I look even at an animal an insect it's it's part of me there's there's a ship it says that Adam had relations with every animal what is that supposed to mean Rashi says it right right what what does that mean he had relations with every animal really every beh every what do that mean and then when he came to he said oh finally what's that supposed to mean huh you ever thought about it this is it this is itna the human being has kinship with every part of the the world every animal has a connection to us doesn't doesn't mean it's internal it's in us that's why you can only have a relationship for something that's that that's recognizable the is it's not it's not it's not it's not it's a is a different level of kinship because is like Adam with Adam and the animal he's a mas and she's a m with they're similar so so that's the answer how man can corrupt so so so so the Earth can become corrupted the right right right can't be anything off for is not be it's made from offer but offer itself is not you saying how can the Earth corupt corrup destroyed later so that's the your robbers it's not robbers that you took the land it's robbers that you transform the land it can't become anymore it's still called right rash brings that any other nations that settled there they were never successful the Romans the byzantines yeah the Crusaders the the the Turks they settled but they were never successful it never blossomed why the Jews were not there anymore but it's still it was a different msus it's a a different msus that's lism that's you're a real thug you come into a physical world and you transform it and the Jews answered you're making a mistake it's not a physical world it's a spiritual World your premise is wrong it's not a physical world it's a spiritual world is just a revelation of that just on a spiritual level we take we take if we corrup it looks like we're doing anti-semites are never off saying off they're off in the way in the way they're interpreting their obsession with Jews right they're never off unfortunately they're they're they're they're terribly off of course in the way they interpret who they are and what the Jew means for them came from well theas was the beginning of a process that allowed the person to experience himself or her as self-conscious as distant but that process obviously you know it spiraled downward for 10 Generations from Adam to so the Mable essentially was a was a a recreation but a different type of world says in saw a new world so it doesn't only mean he saw a new world because you know there was nobody there but it's also he saw spiritually a new world everybody have a beautiful day thank you for coming very offensive the n the gelt such a such a huh pleasure to have you regards to
