so we're here continuing today the hack
domus have a look at the introduction
to Target it's on page gimmel folio B
the second side
and we are four lines from the bottom
where the word starts
let me just briefly briefly give you uh
a recap
in this letter which is an introduction
to the first part of the tadio
he he he's justifying why a safer that
he wrote called the target is an
adequate substitute
for yehidis for the private private
meetings and engagements that has even
came to seek his counsel primarily in
spiritual matters
and he says
seemingly a safe for a book cannot
substitute private conversation
today their studies how with all the
beautiful Virtues Of Us sitting here
virtually it doesn't compare to if we
were face to face it you know in their
studies
and there's a lot there are pluses and
there are a lot of minuses you know
people are more roofed from each other
yesterday I heard how New York City uh
the income is suffering the the the the
flowers and the barbershops are going
out of business and the pubs and the it
is no longer a strong happy hour after
work
why 50
of workers don't come in anymore it's
not online
so the city is suffering financially so
there's disadvantages the doubt that
every here in this Tanya says
when you came to see me
you you you shared your issues
in a book
and and he said and I would love to see
you
he didn't say this I'm paraphrasing him
however I just can't see anyone everyone
anymore it's it's overwhelming more and
more Yeadon seek my counsel take away
time I just don't have the time
so and I discussed this at length in the
last year
so therefore I write a cipher called the
Tanya and in it you'll have the same
advice he says wait a minute how could
that be if someone is walking in
darkness
even if the light
the light that the advice is gavaldic is
tremendous in the book of Rome
nevertheless
those are his words
I'm confused I'm flattered I'm mixed up
I'm famished I got worries bills kids
producer health I'm all over the place
clients
so you could give me a gem of a book
and in it there's tremendous advice how
to dive and better learn better and and
and and connect better to Hashem but I
don't see it because I'm working with
blinders
that's the first complaint
that the altareba seeks to address in
this introduction number two he says
even if somehow that's not an issue
which it is at least at this point in
the introduction
How could a book be in a book that's
written surely a book that's written by
human intelligence and you know good
writing and good ideas and even a terror
book which doesn't go into very specific
details as far as I'm concerned we're
concerned our particular issues for for
us it's not tailored made how can it be
an adequate substitute that's his
question
and we're just at the end of this of of
of the the question the second question
that's what we're going to learn today
and continue to his answer let's go
Hindi
we find regarding the laws of what's
prohibited and permissible food and
culturals
by the way it doesn't mean only that it
means you know anything that's
prohibited is permissible that's been
revealed to us and our children but
we find disagreements between the sages
known as
from one extreme to The Other Extreme
actually Manish
in a very tangible way
a Sharma says you're allowed to basila
says you're not allowed to
and so Devin was telling me about the
learning your mother you learned a piece
of Gomorrah is there a page you can
borrow where you don't find
argumentation no there isn't
I mean maybe he got a short page
somewhere in shots where there's only I
got the story
one second one second
there's one page Asia mccoman I remember
learning that this year okay
okay thank you for that thank you for
the correction let's go on
it's a thousand ever since
that [ __ ] niggling means during Field
park and I'll be referring to this word
I want you guys have to get used to it
this niggler has said this [ __ ] means
the revealed part of Torah and Allah
so that's called mister
muscle is not really Mister it's ethics
but Mr refers to Kabbalah and hasidus
niggler is a is a short one word to
refer to everything else so in in in in
these sections of Toyota have neglows
the word niggler means apparent revealed
that have been revealed
to us in other words we can understand
it we can argue with we can debate it
we find extreme opposite opinions
throughout the Talbot
they will be able difference
both opinions are the words of the
Living God
says
it doesn't say hello
say
a-level Halo the words of beshabai and
the words of basilu
devre elokai high are the words of the
Living God what God
the term used is different elokim plural
God forbid it sounds like there are many
gods
not high high is for the singular
is for the plural
and that's the doctor never says
Russian Robin why
he says you know why it looks away from
the connection
because we're referring to the the
source of life
where the service Israel to all Jewish
Souls
that are generally divided into three
groups
the amen smile next page page darling
the empsa the right the left and the
middle
which are morphically to our wording
understanding and life has said kindness
and judgment
Etc and the ferris would be you know in
between Etc
foreign
and favor
kindness
to be lenient in their rulings and in
their approach Etc holy Canada as is
known in the from the the the Kabula
he says listen
why does it say
that it's the tiger is coming from
different Kim Kai now look it should say
like is one God
the answer is of course there's one
Hashem
I've robbed there's only one God
but God had makes within himself
different approaches
so it's all within God but within God
itself there are different ways of
expressing God and that's why it says
Elohim not high not elukai
you that we should know this is a very
important point that we should know
that it all begins in that little kid in
other words Hillel when you ask someone
there's been
they'll tell you yeah was more strictly
was more lenient
okay
that's why someone might even tell you
though why because beshama's Soul comes
from gavora
and they still also comes from hazard
but that's an individual right
right and for that matter you could
argue why are some people more strict
and stringent some people more lenient
you look at their nature some people are
born this way some people are born that
way
what we're learning over here is
something very different
it's not just that but actually it
begins in God
it's no longer a human trait a
psychological trait
or even a spiritual trait it's a Godly
trait
it's a big hiddish
to say that I call this barkle himself
has
not just room once that's it to Ferris
he wants it God with a capillation he
wants the apostolone so God wants it
that's God
and if if if if if you strip God from
gavora you don't have God
now you have God but you don't have a
part of it you don't have him
because Hashem has everything in it that
this is such an important thought
especially when it comes you know to
people arguing the positions and this
and that Akiva
right
but keep his company he says no Hashem
just loves Crescent and they see some of
the students of Arabic acting with they
say out you don't belong here there's no
room to lead this is out of here
the other ones say wait a minute
Hashem
likes only leniuses and doesn't want
string to see get out of it you don't
belong here
they died
they died like what it says like noble
coverage happens they didn't respect
each other there was a plague and like
buddy Mary stopped dying so that's one
of the reasons for the simcha what do we
see
that explains this that Rabbi Akiva as a
rabbi had room for both
and what we're adding here in this piece
of Tanya is that it begins in God it
begins in Hashem
and that's why it says hi
it's as though this plurality in God
even though God is what
what does not deliver saying this for
he's saying this
because here we're talking about hey
find your place in Torah that identifies
your particular issue and through my
book which is quoting a collecting from
Torah you'll find your answers so he
says look
there are differences within Hashem to
Ferris and it's not clear which which is
for me how do I know which is for me in
other words like this if I begin of rum
you know I have a tendency to be very
strict so I'm going to look into the
Torah into those parts that are very
strict really
maybe you're you're part of tiger is
actually the part which is lenient
but it happens to that's where it's
found how do you know where it's found
that's what he's saying here that
there's different
there's plenty different place within
Hashem for different approaches and
therefore a book doesn't give you that
information but at Sadiq who knows your
soul does give you that information and
therefore his question is how could a
book replace
that's that's the reason for this let me
just finish this paragraph
third line needless to say
foreign
things that are concealed not negloss
revealed
but how these thoroughs the word this
star hidden
hidden things that only God the Hashem
okay knew only God knows
man cannot figure this out
what is this refer to trilo it's an
Aramaic for era or fear
Arabic for love forever
that resonates with a within a person's
mind and heart the wholehearted delay
every person has their own amount of Ava
and year of love and fear the full
mother
based on what they come to in their
heart
of the standing in the heart which
causes it says literally
they become known in the gates
Bilo
the husband
the the more the desire explains
Kyle correct
she becomes known right
the bat becomes the the desire says
how is the bow the bow goes by look
how is the woman going on become known
to her husband referring to God Basha
Aaron from the word
delay delayed
their measure their gate their approach
in other words the relationship between
the woman and the man Asus Kyle the
spiritual context is an individual one
so know that this when it comes to law
love it comes to law you say take out
the sugar give a look look what the law
is well guess what
we have differences between Beijing
this time and that tana and later and
everyone has an opinion
why because opinions are within hashems
without within Hashem Hashem allows and
wants opinions so therefore
you can't tell me to look into the Torah
book which is obvious it says this is
this is
you find differences needless to say
when it comes to issues of the heart
feelings
how can you tell me that a book can give
answers to everyone's feelings when
everyone's feelings are different
so in other words you're going to quote
you're going to quote ethics right say
this Musser Kabbalah very nice but
everyone then takes it and and and and
and and you know internalizes it
and based on their internalization of
the issue and who they are they come up
with a feeling of love and awe and
everyone's different so that's why his
question is that's why he says coach
gave a couple claimer and needless to
say
when it comes to Allah you would think
it's dry Cut and Clear and nevertheless
there's differences surely when it comes
to uh emotional issues and spiritual
issues there are vast differences
between people and therefore a book is
not adequate in giving me a solution for
my particular problem but when I if I
talk to the rabbit and I go into this
and it's one-on-one and especially as I
said in the previous class or two that
is the connection between the soul of
the Rebel and the soul
of the individual
so then you know you tell me exactly
what you sense in My Soul Rebel and you
say this is what you need okay
and I don't and and if the husband
believes that the rabbit knows those
things which otherwise she wouldn't come
to him usually
so therefore he now can act upon it
so this strengthens the second question
that the altareba has how can I justify
telling them don't come to me anymore to
have a face-to-face encounter a meeting
a discussion
and it's being substituted with a book
called The Tanya
that's the end of the two questions now
let's go to the answers
do we have time what time is it now
about seven minutes after three yeah
third time ah says the out to them but
he answers
the
he answers
the second question first
this is an answer now to the second
question
foreign
you know fellas he says I'm writing the
safer for people who I know you'll die
after the word that your Daya
um
who I recognize hey we know each other
we know each other a long time
we've been having lots of conversations
it's each individual one of the of the
Chabad fraternity called anage
say no
that's within our country I.E Russia you
know Ukraine etc those countries
belarusia and all that
White Russian law and those that are
nearby probably a reference to Ukraine
whatever
the words of closeness and warmth and
love were found between ourselves
we had very warm conversations when we
when we met personally
regularly funny and it's revealed before
because
all the hidden
Secrets kind of of their heart their
hidden issues those things that are
deeply think in their mind that they
thought about and they wouldn't share
with anyone but they shared with me
it matters about Vegas Hashem
at least believe
that it dependent on Hashem in other
words you guys came to discuss with me
the issues that are on your heart and
this thought and that thought how you
can't tell them it's the issues that
every serious
Avid Hashem
should bother you know and you discussed
it with me so therefore
you're telling me that my book can't
help you I know you guys
so
what's that they they ain't anything I
don't know
so there's nothing new Under the Sun I
mean that's
I know all of you so why can't my book
be a replacement for that if I didn't
know you I can hear it but I know you
I lay him teeth let me finish the
thought and then I want to say something
else
upon them my words shall drip will the
Shady and my my language
eight safer through the pen Of The
Scribe who could trace the mainland
these pamphlets had the crime of
Shameless which we call collection of
sayings we'll cut them gatherly be sweat
him from the mouth of the swarim praying
to the rambam the Shalom and be safe him
in the mouth of the Scribe foreign
which we are we know we we know in other
words we all know who these remedies
that we learned from doctor I was saying
kind of who I'm sharing these thoughts
from
the tasks
some of them include
Scholars that have alluded to in the
igles in the Holy letters that we
received from our teachers drama here is
referring to remnants
who was one of the Refuge of the Alta
Reba before he left in
1777 I believe to Eric's Israel
he was like the student who took over
for the market and who passed away
right 1773 and when he left the Earth's
row
the the
um he he appointed the outer rabbit to
take care of that particular region
called White Russia for her so he they
they they wrote to each other so the
altanaba says I'm also including letters
and guidance that I got from my rebbe
May Come Close very soon
Victor some shall Mighty VPN some of
this advice I heard from their actual
mouths are colors their holy mouths and
play mother when they were with us still
in white Russia the Kula made sure this
and all of them are responses to the
many questions I shall show you a number
eight sir that are I've been asked for
advice
of our countries
everyone constantly asks based on where
they are in their life luscious eights
obnoxious to seek advice for their soul
sometimes
the memory um loss of memory
is common so even once if if someone
heard from the advice
they go home and his wife says what did
the rabbit say he says uh I don't
remember
uh maybe this maybe that
right you come out of a sheer you come
up your wife see you wow wow wow it's
great cheer what did he say uh I can't
repeat it
right
man say I resemble that remark yes
so drama saying the exact same thing
that's why I'm writing it down says the
algorithm once you have it in writing
you don't need memory open the pager
look okay
I've noted I've written down all the
responses I'll call her shyless
and all the questions
for an everlasting
the ice sign and memory
for everyone should be a memory between
their eyes
stop pushing yourself to come to see me
and try to use protection to get in
he says the word keep ahead because in
this Tanya you must say about in these
pamphlets you must see my which became
the Tanya you must see my gold actually
you'll find
peace for you so the eights in the rain
and the right advice the whole governor
of course you loved everything that's
difficult for you by the Sherman Sam
there's nothing year Libra and your
heart will be secure but two of Hashem
securing God gave me but they know
forever
so basically Dr Pepper says my dear
friends he says I understand your issue
I know you are it's better you're having
a writing you don't forget and it's
everything here so of course everyone
will ask out the question hey the doubt
that ever know me they didn't know hello
didn't know your innocent enough and
everybody else
was exotic and he saw that whoever picks
up this safer the Tanya and learns him
he knew him
and that's a tradition
no one can prove that to you no one if
they tell you tell you they can they're
a liar
but it's a amnesty tradition and the
truth is if you want to just for a
moment extrapolate I've seen this and I
would think some of you saw it those
people that have learned to Tanya
seriously throughout during their
lifetime and live with it and think
about it
they feel mummish
that they left out to them
because and I'm not talking about
cursory learning I'm talking about
learning it over and over each year
and that dialogue about it and then
implementing it and it becomes Who You
Are
like you know you watch Lego boss in the
morning you put on your Kipper living
with the spiritual advice and guidance
that the outer ever gives a yeet in this
Tanya and you live with it and it has
nothing to do with being a habbatic it
could be a lit [ __ ] an asphartic and it
could be anyone we're talking about this
is a safer avoidance Hashem
thought today but wanted this safer to
be what's called
for the entire Jewish people
is Hashem advice Hashem doesn't have
senses on it and avoids Hashem doesn't
have a beard on it and I think the sheb
doesn't have a strible on it a voice
Hashem is serving God
and I tell you from
from this urine that was starting to
give and many others I get emails and
and messages and comments from people
all over many of them will never learn
to grow up in literacy yeshivas foreign
you will see as you'll feel as though
you're talking to an individual called
The Slayer Salma the balatanya but again
that only you could say I could I could
talk about and encourage it and you know
but only the person who after learning
Tanya again I emphasize seriously not
reading Couch Potato Tanya let's you
know while you're half asleep you know
I'm not talking about that I'm talking
about an engaging experience with a
mahabir with an author at Sadiq it is
safer and the same thing by the way
Hillel is with the safer with the
Slender Man and with the commander and
all the Sadiq and like I told you when I
went that poor him and this young man
probably twice his age is sitting there
poor him with the swarm of the civil and
it has the candles and he has a chair
and he was living with the company to
the trailer rapper
and it's not my business to say he's a
faker he's not a faker that's between
him and Hashem I'm not his judge
but is it possible yeah it's possible
so when a person learns the Tanya says
the altered
but you're Dyer Makita
I know them
I know in other words
and and if you think about it as we'll
learn later you'll see David
like after I dressed as every issue like
I mean he addresses the issues of of of
um nocturnal you know omissions uh you
know which is common for the Youth all
youth religious are not religious
he addresses Lush and Huron he addresses
anger he addresses conceit what doesn't
he address here can you tell me what's
missing everything's here if you re if
you really want to be open everything is
natanya every Melody
and he speaks about when I doubt them
and thoughts come into my mind and he
asks what kind of thoughts are they this
isn't talking about 20 chapter 26-34
what thoughts are they are they coming
at this time at that time he makes mama
she split hairs any any and he analyzes
when the thoughts are coming what type
of thoughts are coming
and that's why the safer atanya has
become
especially today especially today with
organizations like you know uh summer
there to throw and and by your note and
on and on and on
and what I would love to see I would
love to see every roof and every school
offer a package here
to their country
all that grabbing millinowitz all of us
did he said to me you have to teach
Tanya my shoe so I said to remember but
lindowitz you're you're much greater
than my and you learned Tanya but if
you'll come for four years
he says no no you're a bad picture you
know the Messiah you know the tradition
therefore every one of us has to the
teacher should be someone who knows the
the Messiah I said fine
and then after we finish six weeks this
was in the shoe and their his shoe I
finished he said no
where is the syllabus the core syllabus
for the next six to ten weeks I said why
do we need I have already my five ten
guys they come at 9 15.
Tuesday Wednesday night whatever it was
with learning where we became
a lot of your friends hello from from
from from uh it's called this attended a
lot some
and and it's great with learning
he says no no no no no no I want a
course syllabus and he paid himself to
put an ad a full page ad in the Ramadan
uh you know newspaper or whatever they
give out every shot every week yeah
that's that's really what be a Vivaldi
if you had in more places yes you will
I just wanted to say that that this week
they announced that Yehuda the son of
Robert shapira at a Scottish is going to
start a time this year
that's it I think Moshe was involved in
organizing I don't know oh that's great
that's great what time is it now yes yes
yes yes
