we're learning Panic youth Zion today
starting on page 44. let's get right to
it
or you read these words with this we'll
understand with what
I've run you have to ask yourself
what what
and the answer is with what we learned
in chapter 16
that an intellectual love is adequate
to
create
the the feeling of being careful in
thought speech and action
which is the avoid of the pain in the
end
more so as a continuation Abram if you
don't mind doing yourself more so as a
continuation of chapter 15 which the
banging that's called the over dealer
Kim Bain and he so you got 15 16 now 17
over Zay yuvan
with this idea
that the taluma islami the the the the
the trunas the tuna and and
which is the intellectual love the cold
love although it's not pulsating with
love for God
which you would think you need
so that you are meticulous and forth
speech in action so the outer rabbit was
mahadish Dr Reba came up with a novel
idea
one that we don't find elsewhere and he
says that even if you just have this
intellectual cold love how could this
but he brings the modern condition
God combines it
to the action and it's adequate for you
and your service of God has abandoned me
so with this idea he continues now
chapter 17 which is gamatria Tov 17
equals tell you
well
if he goes back to the
to what we call in marketing the tagline
though the mission statement of Tanya
it's impossible children
to act upon it
Rashi says this refers to all of Terror
Mitzvahs it's easy only to do terrorism
in action in speech and in thought
although there are commentators that say
when that the word
what does the word referred to so there
are commentaries that say it refers to
the mitzvah chuba
that chuva is an easy Mitzvah to
accomplish in thought speech in action
but most commentators do not
learn that way shot in the verse in the
Torah and they said the word the word
refers to all of Tara Mitzvahs not just
the specific Mitzvah of chuva and the
altarabus question is look further
inside
the idea that is close to your heart
is is kind of a reality in your heart
where you feel it with with a sense of
of heart
it's contrary to our reality
right
what what's what's
what's
easy and and and given
of rum
to us
sleeping eating pleasuring you know
goshmias material
s is
this was the question that the balotania
posed on the title page of Tanya and the
entire Tanya is based on this one verse
and passes itself
in the next bracket something very
interesting
is eternal why does he say that duh of
course Titan is eternal
the reason is
one might think that this verse in
Passionate servant was said
dirt to my and to the Jews during
moshe's time
so the number was
eternal it's not just for the generation
of minor motion and therefore it's for
every single generation for eternity
that titles Eternal but that itself is
problematic
why would you think otherwise if if a
Jew has a thought that Tehran Menses is
not Eternal guess what it's a violation
of the 13 principles of the rambamely
the 13th principle of faith
this Toyota will never be exchanged the
entire title the way it was given to
moisha and harcina shavu was two weeks
ago
so what is the out that episode
thank you very much
so did ever once explained this a
beautiful short explanation and the
devil said
you might have thought potato he
his
is referring to the mitzvahs
the Mitzvahs are eternal
and the total study is eternal but guess
what
that person impartials
with savim is a simple it's a it's it's
said in a simple in a story-like way
because the person
has a person before
this mitzvah for these Mitzvahs that I'm
giving you they are near you
available do me a favor yeah mute
yourself
in other words in other words
the the soaking impressions
are not written and said in a Mitzvah
fashion
in in an instruction fashion in a
command fashion in a seaweed fashion
it's rather said in a simple Bahama
Hashem told Masha kind of a story for
you know telling you telling you about
Mitzvahs very nice
so you might think
that's not eternal
what's Eternal are the Commandments are
the mitzvahs
but the story
the story that the the story the tagline
that motion that God used to motion hey
Moshe I want to tell you something about
the special thing I gave you you know it
happened
it happens to be that it's something so
great that it's close to your heart and
your mind and your action
oh so Moshe says thank you very much oh
very nice swimming thank you what a
wonderful thing
that
if that's the shot then that's not
eternal
that was a story time that a Pastime
story that Hashem told Moses and which
at the time it's not relevant to us and
if it's not relevant to us that means
that
tournaments is not
currently late
that's why Dalton ever says in the
brackets
not only did she voy him
not only the Commandments but the secret
of Torah
the stories of Torah the taglines of
Torah the marketing of theta if it comes
from Hashem
it's all nitrus and therefore doubt that
ever has a right to say if it's if it's
Eternal what does it mean I don't get it
I can understand the Commandment the
direction the directive that that's
eternal
hey that the story line of Memphis is oh
Eternal that's not necessarily so that's
why I doubt that episode's wrong
wrong
if it's part of Tata
it's it's
begs the question how can it be color of
me all right how could it be so close to
us if ice cream and popcorn and sleeping
and honor and pleasure is more close to
us that I can relate to
that's that's why he says that and now
we'll continue the next long line number
four on page 44.
in chapter 17
for its seemingly reality it is not
close to you boy one is not close to you
to transform your heart
from the indulgences of the world Hashem
to have love for God and Truth
okay
yes you can come to shoe have a great
darling have a great Kiddush and then in
the afternoon you're laying there on
your best puffing away from Wild from
the strong that you stuffed yourself
with or sometimes the Russian Harry you
heard at the kiddish and you have to
kind of throw it all out in the shop
this afternoon so at that time you ate
you ain't in love with God your love
with your belly you're hoping your
stomach doesn't have stomach pains from
so much stronger
and and and and and Herrick and of
course the alcohol and the scotch anyway
brings proof from the gamada that Torah
Mitzvahs is not an easy thing up to year
right it says
what does God want of you
know I say to fear Him asks the gamada
oh that's all God wants of you it's a
very easy thing to have dearest Hashem
come on
what do we see from that gamora's
question
Avi what do we see that yira and and
needless to say Ava a true fear is not
easy exactly
exactly right that's the implication
exactly exactly so if year is hard how
much more so is Ava heart the coast gain
needless to say how difficult to have
love real love for God is hard so the
outerame employs this kimara
this Kimura to support hit the question
the rhetorical question that is that
that that he's asking on himself because
he says that Tanya is based on the verse
contradiction and that's what the gemara
is asking and now he brings a mentorish
to also contradict this this economic
and economic statement
whose control of the heart only the
righteous ones only the sadika are able
to have
dominance and control we regular
ordinary people we go up and down
what do you see from that madrish basket
what are we talking about here in Tanya
that means
so this is all till this start over here
is the part it ends the question we're
in middle of a question
this is a question
the question that the autism is asking
on himself
and that is how could you say that it's
easy
hello says
you're right
if you're talking about Ava bisgaude
the revealed love the generated love the
palpable love the passionate love it
ain't close to us velveil don't kid
yourself
the first thing that flame karlberg's
brother if I bring with us in L.A
in the show on librarian third at that
time was owned by the naftali astulian
the laboratory for Russian Jews
this is 1981-82 I was there
and one of my friends was blowing
smoke smoking and blowing making circles
I told you this
got so upset and he said
you're damn fool
he said it's bad enough you're smoking
you have to make circles in middle of a
fibranion when he spoke to focus on
something higher and you're pleasuring
yourself with making circles right
and he said that the first thing that he
was taught when he came from Lakewood to
Lubavitch in 1944 when he transferred
yeshivas was that he heard from his
teachers mashpium the older hasidim of
the rabbi seventies still at the time at
the first thing we learned about which
is zaynet don't be a fool
get that Gnar out of you get that
foolish childish ego I'm better I'm
great
and we're going to show you how to get
it out of you I'm gonna going to level
you
and you're going to hear from bringing
sharp things to put you in your place
because you're coming from Lakewood
you're coming with all this Tyra you're
coming from Harvard you're coming from
Colombia you're coming from Here There
and Everywhere oh really
we'll see what you're really made of and
that that's what happened yes yes hello
I don't hear you Hilla don't hear you
don't hear you
Ellie Malik and slow will come at the
same time his name was not Ellen Miller
his name was
oh uh okay they come at the same time
yes and no never was a student in
the Bible Shiva it's a mistake people
make
okay
registered first they didn't want to
accept them because Lakewood was upset
he pushed himself in so the whole story
I wrote about it in my book and he
became he was accepted and ill as
official student of 770.
listened to his parents who wanted them
back in Lakewood and he went back the
story is they were on the bus and the
bus was by the uh the uh the tunnel you
know the tunnel between New York and New
Jersey the Hudson tunnel leverage called
Holland Tunnel yeah and um
Elohim said slame said I'm getting off
he said this is the last stop
before going back he got off
it went to 770 and Selena continued on
back to Lakewood that's the story okay
but but but but he was but he was he was
in 770 in and out that he already
accepted the free decrebes his Rebels he
became a husted already
hundred percent but his parents he had
tremendous which is a lesson for us okay
although and and you should know that
there are Yas the previous rabbit took
the sign of the carnival boys the twins
of Schlage
and he wrote a letter I printed the
letter because I felt it was very
important
wrote to the administration of of
Lakewood probably Robert Cutler and
everyone else
I will take you to a din Tera
because these are my boys
it's a it's a one-of-a-kind letter you
you
get chills reading that letter he calls
them like my children
and for a rabbit to call two two boys
you know his children that's that itself
is tremendous and number two to say if
you want we'll go to it didn't tell you
let's find out it didn't tell you that
but nevertheless
didn't want to create more you know his
parents to be more upset and he went
back
but he was in and out of 770 the entire
time you know the whole throughout the
40s and you can see that picture of the
fabrina in 1950 I think no it was 52.
you see him standing sitting right there
anyway let's go back to Tanya okay
so right now we're at the point where
Dr LeBus is asking themselves like this
when when when the person says
does not mean the palpable passionate
love which we call out of this Galas
that is
sorry chap it don't work that way for
that you got to be very refined and
basically be
on a higher level what is
and this is the way down the revolution
it's a type of love that's associated
with action
it's an action-oriented love not a pure
love of the heart what's an
action-oriented love what we learned in
chapter 16. the taluma slave the cold
intellectual love that is a love that is
adequate to get you to do what you need
to do
is key
it's the type of love that leads you to
do the Mitzvah itself alone that itself
is adequate
the lib is the will of the hardships
within the recess of the heart
although even though it is not revealed
in a passionate ways now
like a burning fire
says
and this thing this
in other words I'm sorry
not built obviously the way you have to
learn the Posse according to the altered
here and explaining the Bengali is not
bill is an issue for itself it's a
subordinate clause to create the Las I
say the behavior
foreign
for every man
yes
as long as a person has a brain in his
head he can use his brain and his brain
will help him generate the thought the
cult intellectual thought within the
heart to control and do what needs to be
done
foreign
ever believes
that every person's
mayak isai
that's right when it's already an
addiction pillow in the heart
is
an addiction of the heart you're out of
control
but
so you need to kick back and get back to
Birches maybe we could say that's what
we call the cognitive therapy you know
get to the cognitions
focus on the cognition
and once you get once you get to the
brain to the intellect to the mind which
is in Europe in your domain in your
shoes you can reflect on it
whatever you wish to think about she's
blinded by abdulous
when you will contemplate the
awesomeness and greatness of God
automatically
you will give birth
in your mind I'll call upon him at least
what type of Love of the heart
if you take us enough to say I want to
cleave to God right in other words
you'll say this is the right thing I
don't yet feel it I don't have those
passion and the palpitation but I know
that this is the right thing to do
and and and and I I say over and over
this is so important because this is
enough
to get started and more to and to keep
us going
in other words someone will say well I
don't feel putting on film The the
passion I don't feel dominant the
passion I don't feel through the midst
of them
Tanya hears okay okay you work harder
hopefully you will feel one day but
that's not an excuse why because if you
understand that this is right and for
that I want you to think about it and to
contemplate on God and come to the
conclusion that this is what God wants
and therefore I'm a subject of God that
that should create the feeling that I
need to do it I need to be there
and this message is for every man and
when not in Islam happen in the world to
come but rather here
if it says you are to act today
refers to the world of action
after 120 will go back to us goes back
Hulu that's
says elsewhere
says
since we've we've come to a point that
is that we understand that if you had
not if since every person has a mother
because a brain is head
and the Brain can't you are in you are
in control of your thought of your
intellect of your mind
and we already learned in chapter 12.
but the brain the Maya the Mind controls
naturally we told us
over the left ventricle of the heart the
alpief and over the mouth while calling
vitaminola limbs shame clear myself
which is Clea Meister the out the Debbie
here adds a fascinating thing and this
I want you to jot this down either in
your mind or on paper or your tongues
whatever you're using this
of chapter 17 is not the same
veil of chapter 12.
number one down to that but doesn't say
there
he doesn't say it he just says
Mind Over the heart
here Delta remember adds
smallish I believe why is
upon the the Mind Over the left
ventricle in the heart who cares where
over the heart everyone knows the
emotions the heart the hates her
and the reason why because the
alternative here is talking about a much
deeper mind in chapter 12. in chapter 12
drama is not talking about you have
control over your heart you don't
your heart is wild and loose and going
in different directions but you have
enough brains you have enough Mind of a
matter to control the your hands your
feet your ears your nose your mouth
from doing what the heart wants
that's the chapter chapter 12. he and
doubted them is saying even more
if you employ the chapter 16 cold
intellectual love and you access that
you can actually have control over your
heart
over the homeless Mali over the left
ventricle not only on things that lead
to the heart
not not only instruments and tools of
the heart I.E the limbs and and your
body and your body and everything that
does what the heart wants but you
actually can make a change in the heart
it's a much higher level
and I'll deliver it because it's now in
chapter 16 after 15 to 17 after 15 and
16. so now in 17 he says now you're
ready for a deeper experience you been
in your level ready for a deeper
experience now mind you you're not a
Sonic
you still have urges
but now you can actually
control not transform right transforming
the heart transform the Yates
so always remember that chapter 12
all these chapters we're not talking but
it's Saturday we're talking about
abandoning abandoning the ability can
various levels of being in them but one
general rule that's true in all the
levels of being in the
there's no permanent transformation from
Yates
that's only an atsabic and even in
chapter 12 when he mentioned during
diving you have a exotic-like feeling of
chapter 14 when he said you're
impregnated with the soul of a something
it's a temporary thing you're pregnant
today and tomorrow you're no longer
pregnant okay so you're inspired today
during davening and then after Davina
you're back to your same old self
so being in this general rule avram is
that he did not transform permanently
yesterday
what can the pain lead to
a control the situation which is the my
through the Maya of chapter 12.
and more so you can actually not only
control the tools and instruments of the
of the Netflix Obama's in yatesahara you
can actually control your heart
see so controlling the heart does not
equal transforming the heart transform
the heart with mean is you have no more
urge urges no way a banging will always
have an urge
the question is how much of how how much
of the urge will penetrate the behavior
of the baby
so there is one level where the the
control is you can't your urge cannot
get through to action or to speech
you want to say something that's vulgar
you shut your mouth and you don't say it
you keep quiet
they're just there but you control
yourself
in that situation Hillel
the heart still feels like he wants to
speak the vulgar the vulgar conversation
's here if you were to take the time and
use
and realize that vulgar speech makes you
look like an animal and like an indecent
person and like you're you're you know
you're outrageous you're hurting
yourself
and why would you want to do that if
you're normal you don't want to hurt
yourself if you're not normal okay but
if you're a normal person and that
believes that we are normal people
because we have a healthy mind
therefore you don't want to hurt
yourself I want you to think about that
and if you think about it the more and
the more you think about it you actually
not only will control the Earth the
tools of the heart but the heart itself
so we have her three different
experiences and this is what I I wish
drabetes would have would have shared
and brought into psychological terms and
maybe he wrote about it and one day
we'll have a book about it because I
know for me it's a very hard thing to
not come from that background you know
what is the psychological
um idea of of of
of eliminating an urge what is the
psychological idea of controlling the
urge
the the tools and instruments that lead
to
from the urge to action controlling that
and what is the third stage that he
talks about here in chapter 17 that Maya
Talib of chapter 17 that the control is
Mali Sheba live not only al-halev but on
the left ventricle what is that a
psychological terms so I've given you
some Homer killer
but that's what he says here
that's what he says here in chapter 17.
you know then you it really would do so
I mean I tried writing about it in my
book on Tanya mental health but I feel
still we need more verbiage and more
discussion you know more practical uh
you know situations when we can document
clearly the different stages so that it
becomes crystal clear to the average
person
okay let's see what overload no problem
tomorrow Mr shared we'll learn any
questions before any questions I want
anything I said please anything you guys
want to say
no okay
anyway have a great day leave use your
cup
and remember if someone tells you I
can't control myself asking me because
human being or behema if he walks an old
four say okay I can understand you don't
walk an old Fork you're a human being
then use your head
please use your head and help them and
help him develop his head as I just love
you all take care
because
