today is
the yard site of uh the neighbors Kaiser
who happens to be
at Shiva
Khan Khan
he has a strong child because
he was there from 1935 to 1950.
for five years old till 20
he received his channel
and his
education in Eric Israel between his
father and all the Sid them and it was a
tremendous environment and it happens to
be out of all places it was between
Ramadan
where they initially lived and I went to
visit the shoals in the area and it's
it's on YouTube if you want to see it
and
um Tel Aviv the
that was
originally started in 1924 but it wasn't
called
Yeshiva Morgan office
but later in 1938
it became officially a Chabad
institution under the Frida karebo
and the rabbi Eliezer karasik who was
also contemporary of the khans and the
gararis and goldschmidts and the Le
babita families he was appointed as the
menial of the Yeshiva and
his friends all learned in that Trader
where today I'm very proud to say that
my daughter has an international Jewish
gun
it's called The Garden Place on the in
the same location and she took this
building which we if you look at it from
the outside it still looks dilapidated
a one-story uh I think brick
a little building what seems like a
built little building
and
um that same building was the Raider in
1938 and my daughter uh
took it and made of it a a gem you go
inside it's totally renovated
and they are children there from both
anglo-speaking homes and even some
Israelis but mostly anglos
who wanted their children to have kind
to The Best of Both Worlds to get either
scheit
at the same time to get you know
Hebrew even though it's an
English-speaking gun
so they they send their children there
and some very very important affluent
people send their children there and
there's a major waiting list and they
don't have a bigger place yet but this
is the same location it's called of 16
harav cook
but at a time when the Joel Khan went
there's a as a eight-year-old boy
in 1938 and 39 in those years it was
called hayam
because it's one block from the ocean
it's
it's like four or five houses from
you cross over ayakon this is in Tel
Aviv and then yet you get to the yacht
the ocean right there so that's why it
was called 16 but they changed it later
and
um he learned there so we'll dedicate
the the sheer today
and really all the student that I'm
teaching you and sharing with you is
inspired by him because I learned Tanya
by him and I prepared to see your room
based on listening to him this morning
at six o'clock I was listening to the
sheer here and to refresh my memory and
to see what I wanted to say
so it's really
in his house
that
so much cities
has been brought to the greater Jewish
World in all languages
anyone that's a teacher the serious
teacher
has either learned directly from him or
today through his tapes and videos so um
and um
you know his passing was so
so unconspicuous
so private
and you know every time I think about it
he passed away exactly the way
because it wants to really pass away no
one should notice them
Etc I remember when my father-in-law who
was a contemporary of yoyos even though
they were two different parts of the
world
when he passed away people came up to me
like two three weeks after he said I
haven't seen your father in a long time
where is he because he was a shoot every
day I said he passed away I said what
it's like
it didn't want noise he didn't you know
it's like when your time comes you just
I shouldn't take you back I did my
mission and I didn't want a big deal to
be made about me and it's a real lesson
for us because
so much of of today's Yiddish kite and
Judaism Eternal Judaism is all about the
the splash the Fanfare and all the name
of Tyra right you have to be mastered
the Gomorrah says Adolfo says if you're
not masp it uh
you're you're be you know you're
outrageous and it's true but it's also
not true it depends how you're being a
must be the person I don't want to go
there right now because we got to learn
Tanya but uh I see them in particular
it wasn't that way and that's why
there's no husband we don't we don't
want we don't make a eulogy whether you
bury someone who very much against the
eulogy like to the to the nth degree yes
yes sir
I was also told that uh
uh only for greatness of the him and
that uh in general we don't make husband
because it's bad for the Mason it's bad
for the mosfet because it's being just
in the oil of my Ms yeah and people have
a tendency to exaggerate that's correct
and when they do so if they're judged on
on every iota of exaggeration if it's
not Ms you're right that's that's a
basic reason correct
okay so so but I'm saying here
it's so interesting to me that a person
who lived his life because you know I
knew I knew many students I knew many
all and everyone was there but in this
element of humility and not you know no
self-recognition he excelled in you know
and he excelled him not because he made
himself excellent that's who he was so
it's interesting how such a personal my
father-in-law was similar that way how
you know God from Heaven says okay
I'm gonna I'm gonna have you when you
pass away in the same way it won't be
recognized it's the middle of the summer
right just his levia was on a Friday and
I was I was there by in in the funeral
home you know in Borough Park
and and the place was full but
nevertheless it was Friday at 10 30 11
in the morning most people already have
gone to the country Thursday night
Thursday or some that go I'm just saying
you know it's like
out of mind out of sight you know
except that's what he would want someone
I've run could you mute yourself please
and I'm hearing noise okay
let's go now we're on page 62. let's
continue so we're learning here about
the concept of Allah
how the taters near you
of course they say in your mouth and
your heart and to act upon
this is the concluding chapter
in which he started his thought in
chapter 18. in chapter 18 uses the words
omisha daitik Sara
someone whose mind is is kind of narrow
and short and unable to comprehend God
to understand God and develop a love for
God about 10 episodes don't worry
there's another way and that's something
you don't have to create something you
have to reveal you have it within you
it's called the albums that is the
innate love that's when he started in 18
and therefore it is near you and very
near you because of my old because it's
you you just got to take off the covers
and the layers of the Schmutz undress
yourself and get to the essence how to
do that he spent chapter 18 through 24
explaining that now I'm 25 it puts it
all together so we're at the point where
he's he he said
that when it comes to surmeera
right when it comes to preventing
yourself from doing bad
he says look at look at the line line
four line three and the three into four
on page 62.
it says
um
I actually look at look at the look at
line two element key the coast came to
Sri sativa akala surely a person can
shatter
their Indulgence their light their easy
light type of indulgence for this type
and that type of Misa
from which is so much easier than the
thought of dying for God
which we learned about earlier where
even the Council of a column the most
lenient person won't bow to the idol but
rather
rather give up his life so here you
don't have to give up your life you have
to control your tivus Chicago
you see it says the word from the word
it's very near you it's it's much easier
for you sir to conquer your inclination
whether it be preventing yourself from
doing bad I feel my favorite college of
the criticization
his point being that every time you do
an Avera you're severing the
relationship
and you don't want to do that so
therefore when it comes to Surah when
you think about this it it helps you
overcome the type of now jump down to
where we are today
which speaks about the premise I say Tov
that's a middle of page after the word
connoida there's a period like smack the
middle of the page
and he has the same dedication to God
when it comes to doing good with
gabrikari to to strengthen himself like
a lion a big Buddha with the amen to
live with strength and power of the
heart
negregatesa against the inclination
what is the age of do it makes you
sluggish
at the end of chapter one of Kanye this
comes from the element of dust Shepherd
bomb is within the animal tribe
and therefore it causes you milaatriots
you're lazy you're heavy you're sluggish
and you don't want to exert your body
with alacrity you cross around you find
excuses and everything else
and you're and you're lazy and you're
procrastinating with all kinds of effort
regarding serving Hashem you don't do
that
any time that it takes
[Applause]
effort and work
you seem to be you're you're you're
heavy of sluggish and all that could go
into ammo potato
to to work was entirely what does it
mean to work with entire to be even
with your mind but doubt that ever ends
up there's two separate things available
there is using the cup
right many times we read and we learn
but we're not really using our head
imagine when you were in school
or or now even today you have to figure
out an issue valve over there how should
you how should you operate how should
you deal with it you gotta use Ian
sometimes you got to take out the book
sometimes you got to consult another
doctor it's beyond it's effort it's mind
work when it comes to titles the same
thing there's there's this reading
Taylor like a couch potato which is very
good when you're you know when you're
not in the mood of learning but
relearning just be you they
then there's a separate thing prepare to
articulate those words that's a separate
thing says
in both areas in the area of eon and in
the area of pear you have to exert
yourself
continuing inside not to seize your lips
from saying the words
should dedicate himself to the words of
Taylor like an ox with his yoke with his
yoke and a donkey with its package the
saddle
so this was an example of assetov one
example in in in in the idea of Torah
now he speaks about avoid the thriller
so regarding trilo within intent and
focus
to exert one's entire faculties in
davening
right so there are two the person
doesn't do that so that the Sahara was
the exam is creating a a a a a a a a a
blockage between the way you should dive
in and the way you are Dominic
it's not hard for him to give whether
you have you don't have depending on the
situation
the person is not exerting himself Dr
NEPA says in all these situations
creates available
when it comes to in these areas of theta
Avada and Wilson and you battle against
the age of a double life of it it
schemes
which creates 100 seeks to cool off the
soul of man shalalah
he shouldn't
make his money public you know like I
have to get from the word Healthcare
go for it you can have it
he's too careful right if I don't get up
and I don't do this and I don't do that
he he's he's too worried about his
girlfriend's body Shalom
he doesn't have the he doesn't it
display the kayak to stand stand up
against this
anti
um you know tobacca giving the anti
avoid the giving personal dampen and
dabbing and not eat and it's late and
and and they'll say what are you doing
eat already right I told you the story
from rehears from the other day the same
idea says doubted me like the arguments
close to a person to battle all this and
to overcome this laziness and the
sluggishness and to act like alacrity
when
using a thought using a meditation this
is the Chabad
within the chapter right it doesn't say
just do it because you're a Jew and you
have a soul it's not what he says look
what he says coming up
when a person will be attentive will
make his heart attentive she'll not say
it in order to overcome the inclination
the whole saviorations in the above
Manner and even more so the Los Angeles
and to do the opposite of the age of
Wands we're going on to page Islamic
Bays now
hey he says it's much easier than
death
Hashem and got to be death I am a God
will be available you're ready to accept
with love and willingness
that you shouldn't be for a moment I
feel if he's sure you shouldn't be
separate from God
to bow down even though you can do
trouba later right
remember what he says in panic 18 the
chapter Tanya even even the cow should
call him it will not bow for a moment
right that's the attitude says the
alternative here in chapter 25
ask yourself think about this you're
ready to let yourself die be out of a
wrestle look what his words are with
with a feeling of love I'm so happy and
we saw this in the holocaustrialism
Spanish acquisition
where people will be available
and that's it
yeah I think everyone was bad but many
were that way and they weren't the most
religious people they came to realize
that this is this is the call of the
hour right so you're willing to give up
your life
with death
and you're not willing to curtail your
Indulgence
what are you it doesn't add up
that's why Dr never says over here
the coach came the next line the coast
game line number three needless to say
because she usually the cop would be so
for sure you have to accept with love
and willingness
to curtail your tivus and to invest
yourself in doing Mitzvahs in the three
aforementioned way in Torah avoda
so that you should be attached Hashem
forever
when you will engage in doing God's word
in work in this activity is
an alien God's inner will be revealed by
Prince
his face will shine the metaphorically
speaking the countenance of God will be
revealed relay by Hester it won't be
concealed at all because
there's no concealment of God's
continents
there's nothing separating you for God
and for you to be an ego self-driven
individual
with ego because
of humans your Godly soul and your
vivifying soul he verifying Eunice
refers to the nethership
and their garments
bound United
with the will of God infinite God can
now
I want to make a few points because it's
important
here uses suram
so at the beginning on top of page 62 I
pointed out to you that he says that
when it comes to separating yourself
from God by doing a sin you're ready to
have mercyless message
if you know just like avoid desire that
they're gonna kill you right
then he says but but if not you're not
so interested
you're ready to give in to your Clipper
to you to you Sahara when it comes to
Torah of avoids the same thing you don't
have enough as strong as with intensity
you don't give sadaka with intensity and
to everybody at all times and when it
comes to learning you don't use your
mind you rather just take the shortcut
the art scroll gamara versus an old
Chasse where you have to break your head
to understand shot and rushing places
you know on and on and on
you're ready to jump into the fire for
God even even though it's only a
temporary thing because in Your Heart of
heart you don't believe in the idol so
when someone says bow down to the idol
or I'll kill you and you say kill me why
you know it's in the Heart of heart you
don't you don't even you don't believe
in it nevertheless you don't want even
for a second there should be a
perception that you believe in the idol
so you're not going to bow down and you
allow yourself to be killed that you're
ready to do
but who comes controlling your tiva or
it comes to exerting yourself in the
Mitzvah no one's home South America says
that's a coast game it's needless to say
but there's another detail for the coast
in here for the calvokome
and that is that the the the difference
between
and the exertion is that avoida Zara is
is a heavy one it's idolatry and and the
the idea of learning title with exertion
and giving sadaka with uh to everybody
and and and and
um and darwining with such intensity all
of that
it it is is much easier so if you're
this is his kind of home I'm just
explaining the wording the kosuke the on
the third line on page lamic base
that it's a the culture came and said
call The Homer needless to say that in
these areas you should exert yourself
now another Point here is it's
interesting when it comes to surmeera on
the third line on page 62 bow Thriller
makes a blanket statement you're ready
to you're ready to to you you're ready
to you don't want to desecrate any Avera
regardless he doesn't specify examples
of averas when it comes to a Saito
when it comes to doing good he specifies
in Torah
in in davening avoida and Equipment why
the difference
cerebral explains I heard from him and
he says like this that that when it
comes it's an explanation of the
rabbit's father but he he brought it in
capitalistic words and the Reba and and
he took it and explained it in a simple
way when it comes to surmeira
any and every Avera as regardless
whether it's brushing your teeth or
Shabbos and causing blood from your gums
which the rabbis say is a rabbinic
Prohibition right
and you don't care and you do it anyway
if that's the way that says that should
not be done it's a it's a breach
as far as the breach is concerned
there's no difference between that and
eating on your keeper not at all
because your keeper see well you Kipper
it's in the terror yeah but what's the
nakuda Don't Preach
it's Lavera do not desecrate so what as
far as the breach is concerned the
breach is the same in every Avera
when it comes to a mitzvah
there we're looking if you look at the
autorabba's lotion I want you to see if
Heather look at the fourth line on Paige
llamic base
the middle of smacking the line he says
look at the Cabo rushing could they look
Dusty
I think some one is one of you asked me
a few weeks ago what's the idea of Vegas
here we seek vacas when it comes to
draco's attachment cleaning binding
there's a difference between in the in
in every detail every Mitzvah
accomplishes a different vehicles
the dragons that you get when you study
tired of being with depth is different
than the vehicles you get when you're
diving with the cover on them and the
vehicles when you give Sudoku freely is
different than than than Dominic the
California
and so it's true for every Mitzvah
that's why Delta Reba enumerates three
areas of Torah avoided to give us three
examples how when it comes to dracos I.E
I.E
Memphis assay over there the detail of
the Mitzvah is relevant
when it comes to our favor it's really
not relevant what's the difference and
this is a hard time hard thing for
people to get because they don't think
and that stuff is trying to make us
think here every Aveda is a breach
finished
you know for one to say oh this one is a
heavy one and this one who cares sorry
chap that's as far as
um the you know reward and Punishment
and and and how you feel about it but as
far as the essential issue that anavera
is all about which is not desecrating
the will of God not breaching the will
of God it's all to say
when it comes to a Mitzvah there are
different the Mitzvah what are you
seeking to Vehicles so the question is
what type of vehicles what type of
attachment
so one person it's entire one person is
an avoidal one person is
saying here
that in all areas that vehicles in all
areas make a simple husband that will
help you
come to Vegas in more areas of your life
and and the husband and the thought
process one second one moment the third
process is simple the thought process is
you're willing to allow yourself to be
killed but you're not willing to dab and
become honor it doesn't make any sense
foreign accomplishes
at Vegas in a way more than not being
killed why
buy an Avera
and the Messina snap is there you're
reuniting with who you are you're not
creating anything new
you are a Jew you have a nation you're
connected and an Aveda seeks to
unconnect you disconnect you so you
return back when you don't do the Avera
you return back to who you are
that's what happens by a Mitzvah you
create something new
so that's the answer to whoever asked
the question what's the virtue of Vegas
the virtue of Vegas is a new creation of
a bond vis-a-vis the Mitzvah that you
use to use the vehicles
and that's why is there Dr ever used the
words the coast game
if you understand this various aspects
to the Congo comment that's what I'm
elaborating on if you're ready
to give yourself for God when it doesn't
involve anything creative it's just who
you are how much more so when you can
accomplish a new creation in your life a
new bound with God surely you should
do it
it's a phenomenal thought you know you
didn't think of it a long time to do
like relearning this chapter but that's
what he's saying here this chapter so
far is that the Mitzvah whatever the
Mitzvah say is it's a new opportunity
for creating something new in your life
vis-a-vis yes Johnny what do you want to
say
my question last week I think it was
Thursday because we talked about about
if there's you know a small Mitzvah and
a big Mitzvah and then there's different
car if you use moment so you give a guy
a shackle right or or you go to visit
someone in a hospital obviously there's
a different measuring stick so I don't
understand how this drives with what we
just learned maybe I'm just not getting
it I came a little late I was stuck in
the meeting but am I missing something
yes you're missing you
don't weigh
it's picky of us our teacher do not
weigh the stringency or the leniency of
Mitzvahs you shouldn't do that
foreign
you shouldn't do that
why because a mitzvah's all the will of
God
so therefore so therefore
whether it's
considered by you a little Mitzvah
considered a big mix where it's all
God's will
nevertheless that so that's what we
learned last week what you're referring
to
and again it should pick you up it's not
actually this is
but what what is what we're learning now
is that when it comes to vehicles
you have an opportunity to
to recreate to to create something he's
not telling you not he's telling you
dracus in every area he's not telling
you choose an area
the the the nakuta here is that the
difference between the surmeira is
returning to just to who you are versus
the vehicles Hashem says I'm giving you
an opportunity to create something new
Visa Vida Mitzvah now that you should
choose mistress
and oh and I was and and what he's
saying what I was saying is that each so
therefore
don't be lazy when it comes to using
your mind to learn tired of the Eon in
depth don't be lazy to diving with
passion and intensity and don't be lazy
in the sense and don't be effortless in
giving to DACA but give it a broad hand
those are three General
avoided like it says
it's not only these three it's a general
it's a prototype for the rest of the
Mitzvahs that each of the mythses
creates a bond
okay tomorrow Mr Shem we will finish the
chapter I believe and and uh we'll learn
anyway have a great day everyone again
the fear is dedicated to the summit of
your benefits
bye bye
all right
