okay we're on page 91
based on what we learned earlier in the
beginning of chapter 17
[Music]
you've no different i've been saying
this
virtues
of hasidis
that this is the idea of siddhis you
know like with canal but
there are rights like we learned in the
very beginning
of the sikha
that siddhas came to revive the jewish
people from this devastation and moral
spiritual devastation
so this is a taste of mashiach tata
those are all
individual and specific
details
i see this canal
although as we said earlier
in the very beginning
that these
that these details are mustafa's they
are results
of the core essence of hasidis
we call making nevertheless
baptist oxfords
it is in the details that express the
essence and and mohus
the essence of what this is
me
because what is the proof
that the an experience is what we call a
asami an essential experience
it is
it's when it penetrates and permeates
and is found in all the details
if you don't find velvet in a detail
then the kuda of hasidis that means that
the good of siddhas has not reached
there
and he says
and the essence of siddhis
needs to penetrate and permeate
the most my new detail who could now be
and i have three shebang gila vietnam as
we explained earlier that deep the
difference between what we call
revelation gillui and essen essence
well pr
and based on the general rule she knows
the beginning is wedged at the end
specifically
in other words in the end the final
product yani
it's where
you'll see and experience the beginning
if the beginning
makes its way and permeates the end
so the person the man on the street
the average man on the street
if they're living with siddhis
if they i'm sorry if they have the
essence of sidness it will be
seen in their footsteps and their basic
behavior in the world as we know it and
he says
where it
it it it transforms the nature of the
animal drive
which is
the outside
within man right hillel we know the
balchemt balsham
said
mashiach
when will my ma your master come
when the well springs will spread
says
means sheba adam atsuma it also includes
not just in the street in new mexico
putting on film with a jew and a
ponytail on top of a mountain
hutza means within yourself
there is that part of my being which is
excited about hashem
and there's that part that doesn't care
that's the khutsa sheba
see this
to to
to to test oneself and to know
whether i'm there i'm living with taurus
about shampoo sitters it needs to impact
and make a difference
even in that part
which is
and even lower
vader
this would be refining a person's
portion in the world so say he is living
in oslo norway
why is there yes though he was there
because he was sent there as a doctor
a scientist or in alaska in anchorage
alaska
and that becomes
you know each and every one of us has a
helix in the world there is a part
somewhere in the world
that that
place is designated only for us
and not any no one else has the
obligation and the mission our neshama
has to obligate has to refine that part
now of course
one how does one know right that yeah
right
okay so we discussed that but saddik
sees the soul and you know but
the point is
whatever your helix is that's the hutzah
that's the man on the street
and that's
why
you're there
you think you're there because you're a
shliya or you're a rabbi or you're a
scholar or you're a doctor and really
you're there because someone passed away
and didn't have
relatives and you needed to find get
them jewish burial
and it could be that's why you were sent
there yes yay
now tell your story
my my uh it's vanish on this topic
my wife's ian passed away
[Music]
green acre or something like that it's
like um
it's near westwood
okay that's where my wife's grandparents
are buried and aunt's uncle
so the only people in the family
that are
that are non-cohan is me the whole
family's khan
wife's family okay so
they'd have a minion
there's no minion because everybody was
sharing
and the kayam have to stay out right
there's a place for the kahana so they
go like you know to the side and they
can't really be there for the condition
so um i got i got in touch with um yasi
schneerson
i told him what's going on this and that
thing they made 15 minutes we already
had a minion and
like i organized it you know i was there
i looked at artsy stroll i went for the
funeral like when i found out there was
a you know the funeral was going to be
tomorrow i got on the plane that night
got there
and like literally i didn't have a
minion i didn't realize i didn't realize
it's going to be
this and that and i saw my mamas don't
have a minion just like you know they
don't know so many people they're not
you know she she herself for amp wasn't
orthodox
and whoever it was i thought it was okay
and it was like within 15 minutes we had
a minute and we had a big minion like
you know he called up like he called it
sent a bunch of people and then um
from
his name uh rabbi
you cover you you cover in other words
there is this is the point here
so one will say hey i'm working on my
khuta sheba adam it's very nice
but hey fella you have
and if you don't cover that means you
don't have the essence of siddhis
and this is a very this is a an argument
that not everyone accepts
the the basically many of the other
hasidic groups don't believe that you
should go on the streets and then put on
filling eating
if they come into your shoe and they
didn't put on filling you know you want
to do a nice thing do it
but that amber's argument there we're
going to see it soon at length for the
next few days is know
that teresa
wants khutsa and not just
so don't think that this is a a small
piece of change here but rather very
important next page 93.
shouldn't remain aloof
but needs to be brought into actuality
into polo
avoid
when you're in the operating room
that's where see this counts
that you're operating on a patient a jew
or a half dollar guy
like a husset
and and and and and if you're a husset
which you are
so it should be recognizable in every
cut in every movement
then it's a husset that's doing it
and the same
how is that different than than to the
entire like living torah and behaving
like a mentor it's the same it's the
same thing but you need this with the
emphasis of see this of course
but there's a ben toyota that's not a
hostage
you want
to answer your question elaborately is a
long discussion
the difference between a hustler and a
non-cluster but i think i think you know
it's uh you know it's it's it's that
story that i've told you many times
the little herring
the little herring and schnapps
after davening
is where siddhis is siddhis
uh who needs herring
who needs schnapps
big deal no
when you today is that results your site
right
and the sure just came from there was no
lakayam
and the gabba has a rule
moshe metzker you must know him yoni the
god by sheikh shabbas and 13th 53rd
you don't bring lachaim even on the yard
side of a big saddiq you have to say
which for me is good because kabat says
talk to them on new york site
even a yard said of the rebbe
but
what's my point
my point is
so i was talking to a sid who was
walking out of shul
and i and i said something
and i said it feels like i'm a snack
there's a shoe there there's no i saw a
lot of candles being lit but there's no
lachaim what's going on
so he made a comment
about uh the leadership in that show
they're more on the mystery side they
really aren't we stopped them at all but
you know they went to tells you what i'm
saying this like and that and that's the
answer to your question
that's the difference between a bentaira
and a khasit
for a husid the and the schnapps is more
important
than anything else
and and that's an age-old difference and
a disagreement then life goes on you
know it's you know everyone's entitled
if you want to know it's the it's the
the fetch the kishkis the
you know that that makes the titusa
special
so when the bodhi of strelisk
has a dream and his mother says to him
i can forgive you for not remembering
with my your side and not saying goddess
you're not learning the schneider's i'm
not going to the caver there's one thing
i can't forgive you for
for not bringing
to show for people to make a brother and
say look i am
that's a husset
that's that's question and i'm not
talking about
the override all idea that's
demonstrative of what see this is
so i'm telling velvel that when he
operates in the operating room there's a
hasidisa way of operating
naturally it's enclosed and then in the
white carp he's wearing and everything
he has to do
to take care and make sure everything's
a hundred percent
but there's the way a yield goes about
it a shame potato misfits and it is the
way a hustler goes about it
that ever says here
that
all of your philosophy and all of your
learning
and all of your argumentation and you
know see this and you cannot explain
this and that
if it doesn't come before my mish
it doesn't come down
in this world
you don't have the eczema cedars
you have a manifestation of cedars
you can chuckle you can put on six
garlic one bigger than the other
you can put on a striable that's this
thick or that thick or this thick you
know to show how much money you spent on
this drive or five thousand ten thousand
it's all very nice
but the essence of see this is
employal mamas let's continue
your tests page 93
just as the infinity that siddhis brings
is throughout every aspect of that ken
gambitu himself
is not only is siddhis
it's his citizens infinity
recognizable in all aspects of tight as
we explained at length until now but
also until the lowest part of the world
it explains
is clearly course and this is the rebel
shita it's khabar
hit it on the nail
to transform and make everything in the
world a vessel for godliness
is it's so generally see he supports
what you said before yoni overall this
is true for in torah for abandoner
but
where where is this most felt in this
resolve
[Music]
seemingly this is this is uh
problematic it's it's it's it's it's a
wonder
the kuala lumpur in all worlds
this world is the lowest shane tackle
and mataman nothing lower than this
world
or violin has that goof in this
[Music]
[Applause]
and since all the spiritual worlds in
comparison to the traitor
therefore
praise the trade
that all the spiritual worlds and all
the lower worlds
depend
on one mitzvah of tata nana shall say he
was he was punished
and the alternative by the way explains
in tanya and he gets a koi dish you're
innocent why was he punished of it
because
he
he kind of misread
the nakuda the essence
he he he he uh boxed in god into a
detail
even david
that was a mistake
[Applause]
we need to give spice to the yeast
look at look at note number 38 from
conducion.30 on page 92 on the bottom
the talmud continues if you occupy
yourself with tita then you will not
fall into it the evil inclinations
clutches
but
if you don't occupy yourself with
tighter then you will fall into it
it's hands
so so that's why we use the word spices
whatever
the point being
how can you say that emma's question is
just as david
is blamed
that he pinpointed one mitzvah as the
mitzvah you know the bliss melee showed
his bliss miller is the mitzi then
calculates all of the encapsulates all
of that and hashem says that's a mistake
because you're limiting god you're
limiting it
him so the gemara over here
seems to be limiting hashem and says
that you know what it was was created so
the yay sahara shouldn't get in our way
so when we have a taivo we have a torah
to grab onto
says the remember that's his rhetorical
question and here is his answer
well we are now moving based on what we
said earlier it could be understood
expressed itself specifically when
trader becomes a toddler the spice fly
hates her he explains
96 95
mc
95 mckeeve and shot coyote
with toppo states autoloaf
how do you have the ability to transform
the eight zahara
and to transform them to good
only through
so spice the river is interpreting the
gemura
spice doesn't mean
hey
i have a tiva right now
i better
hang on to this idea in torah
and that's what you'll hear in most
musser schmoozin
and even in some hasidic circles
you have a taiwan do this you have a
type
that ever says here
that when the gemara says i created the
yate sahara and i created toyota to be
tavelin spice
when the yates are hotter bothers you so
you grab onto tata it means to get to
the essence of toyota just like spices
give the essence of flavor to food
so it's not that listen to this it's not
that
not just
the way they teach us in yeshiva
you know
uh you have this problem
don't look there
you have this problem don't say this you
have this problem memorize this part of
titan that's all true
but that's not the essence
the essence is connect with the essence
of today god almighty
that's why toyota was created so when
the the rebbe is interpreting top lane
unisim
as the exit
top
meaning spice
spices
take the food which is the body
which is the
uh practical
and gives us a depth
and that's
it let's see how he explains it
it's a long beard but it's worth
looking at
collectively in gamayation island all
revelations even the greatest ones
since they're boxed into light
and revelation energy revelation
hillary if someone who has the ears use
yourself
[Applause]
evil which is the opposite of light
opposes them over male 1 therefore
you have to fight with it right like the
guy told me
in the um the breast lift shule yeshiva
it may assure him
we cannot fight with the taiwanese that
are in the kibbutzim
we have to stay here in may ashore
only when you identify with the essence
who pushes batacla
god being
stripped
from any box and condition any gether
or muslim the quality urine and is
rejects any kinds of images and forms
the game is
guess what on that level
there cannot be anyone that opposes god
when you have that attitude you can
change it so in other words
i mean this is hard a hard pill to
swallow
you look at something as someone as an
opponent
and not just much as an opponent evil
bad
that ever says
in the level of
in light
yes
but if you come from a different
perspective
it's only there
to test you to make you higher and
greater
so if that's the case
you could work on transforming that bad
as well
and that's the secret to life and the
secret to happiness
is to train ourselves and it's a hard
job a very hard job
to see an opponent and opposition
to what we believe and what we
what we live with
as an opportunity for greater growth
growth
and when you train yourself this way
and the only way you could
get this is if you live with essence ask
me atmos
atmos has no gadora
so the guy comes with the shoe
and you see him wearing shorts
and i'm not talking about to show where
it's maybe more common but here in
brooklyn
and you know in borough park flatbush
you know that you know they look at you
strange
right
comes into a chabad house in in new york
the rabbi embraces him and the rabbi
hugs him
what's the difference
both are keeping aloha both are from
jews
the difference is what's your
perspective
and i'm not talking about a jew that
doesn't know better i'm not talking
about some someone who knows better
for whatever reason that's
right
and and and it just i i just had it in
florida
and i'm not the you know a world sonic
but
whatever someone who's a learner that he
learned
and he's a great guy he's my age
so i saw that during darwin he wasn't
wearing socks
the altar according to the altar rapper
you need to wear pus mccoys
so it's clear in the altar
i believe the mission of bruno doesn't
pass them that way but the altar effort
does
so he has a laboratory in israel
babachir
who you know went through the system
we should have pus mccoy's
socks when we die
and i noticed he didn't so i went over
to him and
embraced him put my head my mouth next
to his ear and i said are you aware of
this
he says yeah sure
you know any but then he started to you
know
whatever i didn't say another word i
said
do what you do what you think is right
that's all
that's one level guess what there's a
higher level
there's a higher level where a person is
so in tune with asthma
he doesn't see he doesn't see that he
doesn't see him not wearing socks
yes
it's a higher level
now he doesn't see it because he's a
fool
he sees that he's not wearing socks but
his consciousness is
on a much deeper level connected with
hashem that this is a child of god this
is a person of god and he has to deal
with his avoider
of course
not going into
you know alternate says in chapter 32
how we should give musa when we should
give muslim all that
let's just continue please i want to
finish
when we talk about this level of traitor
that's associated with the essence
it says
it's a game it's a play it's a game it's
a the torah is like a game before god
you know how you get a game you're
playful
how are you playful
you take darkness you make light out of
it that's real playfulness
not silly playfulness
transformation of darkness delight the
zelda
specifically through
transforming darkness to light
that's called the game within toyota
miss batas next page 97
nimiyusa
the essence the inner
intent of tata is expressed
expressed it united with the essence of
god
and and
uses the word in the gemara messiah
moshe
what's the ponemeous of god the
playfulness of god what's the
playfulness of god velveo transforming
darkness to light
or as the rabbit says in basiligani
to take
the um
and make of the kadusa
so the rad the kumara says
went to the simcha and he's miraculous
dancing with the body and they're making
the sim card for the costume
and then he does
he picks up women he starts
doing acrobats or balancing with women
i see this not muslim it's a gemara
what's the shot in the mother says the
previous rabbin the mahmud basligani
he was at the level of massachusetts
he played
he used those
which goes to the point which was
in a way outwardly not sneers
but he took the
the opposite of kedusha and he elevated
it yes uh hitler
was he was he the titan that didn't have
children
uh
no i think that's benaza you know
um would the body look
i i don't know after
