so we're learning chapter
42 says
page says that the that the the the
the that itself has to be predicated
because I'm sorry
theem your love for God needs to be
predicated on
on why do I put on cuz God said
so not because I love
God you love God is a side it's a side
fact good very good I'll give you a big
award for and what's the
reason why must we say I want you why
must we say that the year that the a
itself must be
predicated on the Y and the reason is
because
AA brings brings with it the I the
yesh I
love
in the eye is
squashed or better said the eye is
suspended right I fear Him and because I
fear Him I put myself in a little corner
don't don't see me you know I'm scared
so the eye is
suspended so Y is more
pure IE less yes less I and when a comes
to serving
hasem there's an expression
in AA is greater in like quantity but Y
is greater in quality in the and and the
way we sum it up is y is
deeper
om
depth depth
doesn't Express itself how much
territory you
conquer depth expresses itself in the
quality of the
Conquering what's the quality of the
Conquering when it comes to that the ey
is
squashed there's less I there's less
there's less yesh that's quality that's
depth when it comes to
AA you you'll notice that the the eye is
very much potent in the
experience and and and if you if you
think of AA and this way it's so true in
relationships from from from with with
spouses and children and employers and
all types of relationships you have to
ask yourself sit back is my relationship
based on Ava or is it based on y so the
average person will say
love I love I'm falling in love I am in
love I'm out of love I'm in love right
if you
learn you learn these trap you
understand that's all a uh I'm not going
to use the word fallacy because it's not
a fallacy always but it's not the
ultimate the ultimate is respect which
is an element of Y if you respect
someone you really love them if you
don't respect them at the end of the day
you love yourself not them and they
happen to fulfill what you what you need
what you want and it's that way in
marriage it's that way in business right
how many people I told you how many
people could say I love what I do and I
even get paid for it right but first I
love what I do you really love what you
do or or or or you love yourself but you
really would would prefer doing
something
else
this is the difference CL between
aema one MOA the notion of love and the
notion of Y and that's why the balat
says
here that in chapter 41 he says that the
ye that the AA itself must be predicated
on the Y for the AA to be genuine and if
not it's not genuine doesn't mean you're
a bad guy it doesn't mean you're not
doing the right thing can you imagine
you see someone who 365 a year 24/7 is
doing the right thing and yet he's
missing the
nuda doesn't make him a bad guy he's
doing the right thing the script is
right the prescription is right you know
what's missing the soul is missing we'll
talk about that later in this
chapter and that's really we have an
artist that's really what art
is I can
draw the same circles and lines that MOA
draws just I'll draw a circle I draw a
line and I can even imitate his drawing
I'm not saying I can but someone can
right but guess
what if you're not a real
artist that you're that art from that
person who drew circles and lines and
was able to put them together is
worthless it's
garbage why why it's the same circles
the same lines because the soul doesn't
come
through the soul is what makes the
artist art
art and this art and the soul is not
created by lines and
circles the soul is created
by
soul and if you live with soul and you
experience soul you can share soul and
everyone in their
way let's say you know is a physician
you come in and we all you come into to
one doctor and he's very uh what's the
word St stagy I just learned a new word
yest
stagi D dull it means dull I think the
word is stagi anyway forgive me if I
have the wrong word
anyway and and what it's an Old English
word yeah whole English word study okay
study thank you if someone else someone
else is maybe another
physician comes in he doesn't know as
much he smiles you know he makes you
feel at home most
people will will will gravitate to the
one who is with a smile and a warm
hello how are you you
know even though the other person might
be a bigger bigger doctor no more you
know and all
that because what we're looking for in a
relationship is the soul the
Thea the
technicalities are
important as we know if you go to a a
doctor who we call a Shuster you know
AUST is a shoe repair
man he knows he knows how to repair you
he has good set of
hands and sometimes that's
necessary but but many times when when
when you visit a physician and and and
the smile itself
is it's here for the
ru I just heard yesterday from someone I
met him in the street the laab he told
me he was at NYU once and um there was
uh in the waiting room the emergency
room there was a woman kasic woman you
know with with the with the total you
know cop kiss and coverage and all that
and um he saw that she wasn't something
wasn't right so he asked her so she said
she's been waiting in the in the
emergency room for hours so he said did
you eat he said she said no I haven't
eaten all day so he says I'm also hungry
I'm going I'm going to the cafeteria
and there's a kosher cafeteria there and
I'm buying food I want to bring you back
some food or you can come with me and he
was shocked that she said I'll actually
come with you you understand going from
one Hospital in NYU up there on you know
Fifth Avenue at the end uh to the
cafeteria you have to go through tunnels
and usually cidic women don't like to
walk through tunnels with the
men but uh she did it she did it he told
me this last night this is fresh off the
press so um and it's a long walk from
the emergency room to the
cafeteria and silence you know walk you
know it's like here is this
Rabbi uh and
this woman and it's like you know you it
was impossible not to make some
conversation because otherwise it would
be
like walking silently in tunnels
okay so he he he says to her how how you
know you're waiting so many hours and
you know there's all kinds of noises and
people are sick you you know emergency
room it's not not
fun so she says to him and this is I
want to share with you she says to him
the waiting
itself is helps the refu the
healing The Waiting itself amongst all
the everyone that is in an emergency
room the
amuna that belief that the that this is
what Hashem wants and I'm here because
of of an emergency and I have to wait
amongst all these people that itself she
said to him is part of the reu I thought
it was very powerful so why am I sharing
it because in every experience it's the
soul see so that would be the kind of
the soul of the emergency room
waiting right there waiting you got to
wait on line there's emergencies you
like it you don't like it you know you
got to wait but when you understand the
Nish the soul you understand there
something much deeper happening here
that itself is Solace that itself
already gives you part of
the Misha your turn what do you want to
say yeah I was just going to go back to
we were talking about the issue of
Happiness um no I spoke about love love
and fear love and a a
and you brought up the question of uh a
person does he enjoy what he does oh
yes okay so I just wanted to
say like often times a person may not NE
necessarily find what they do is
enjoyable depends some some parts are
not enjoyable it could be lots of Parts
but they could be getting a lot of seuk
tremendous amount of satisfaction that
they're using their
skills to do
something and
so so I I I I bring it up because you
mentioned you mentioned a few minutes
ago we're discussing the issue of like
you know we don't we don't just do
something because I don't remember
exactly I'm paraphrasing what you said
yeah we don't just let say do something
because it makes us
happy I just I bring I I I I I I know
but but I brought that you know as as an
example for the concept that the year
has to be the foundation of the Ava
which means means
that that that that the doing of work if
it's the right thing to do even if
you're La if even if you're lacking the
excitement but it's the right thing
it'll bring good results that's one the
that I brought then I brought another
the I brought a few a few points then I
brought a
point of the example of the person who
imitates the artist by drawing the
circles and the lines but doesn't the
soul is not there that's another aspect
right right so what you're saying is
that even if you don't but but I if I
understand you correctly it seems to be
a contradiction what you're saying
because if you're getting
seuk if you're getting satisfaction seuk
means satisfaction that's what you use
you use the word SE
that's that means you love doing
it am I
wrong I don't know I'll give you an
example what maybe I'm give a little bit
of example what I'm talking
about
[Music]
um people ask people have been asking us
since the war started they say oh your
son your son's in gazi his son's you
know in like the front of the
combat um is he he they ask like is
he how's he doing is he people say like
is he don't say he's is he happy but
they're like is he
like I don't
know trying to remember know how people
said it people didn't I guess people
didn't you know some people said was
he I don't remember exact I don't
remember exactly can I suggest because I
have the same situation they ask how's
his spirits how are his spirits how's he
feeling that kind of thing Mo just a
second hang on one second let let me
just finish so what I I respond to
people is
um you know what he
he he has a lot of
he's there's a lot of uh satisfaction
seuk seuk there's a lot of he feels that
he is using his he's using his skills
and the motivation is very high okay I'm
trying to remember
I use the word cuk now I'm try now okay
but the but get the point being the
point being go ahead the point
being yeah the point being I guess the
point is simply and
I'm many times you know we're doing
something and we don't necessarily enjoy
it okay so but if it's the if it's the
right thing to do exactly we're good at
but by doing the right thing it there's
a certain it reinforces
okay so that would be an so that's fine
so that's an example of what Al said in
chapter 41 that if you have kab soil
this needs to be done
now it's the right thing what you're
you're you're adding a caveat I think
and I told you the RAB rashab talks
about it and we should learn that
Continuum of my moram one day he talks
about the servant who serves the master
and does with the master once but also
has
satisfaction that's what we call in in
in the rash's uh language evid
NE a loyal
servant but before that there is what we
call evid
pasut a simple
servant simple servant means you want me
to do this I do it I don't think about I
do enjoy it I don't enjoy it I do care I
know you're my master I have fear for
you and if you want me to do it I'm
there that's called EV push
then there is EV
neon EV neon a loyal
servant
not does it and understands why he's
doing it that's a different type of
evid so it could it could be that what
you're expressing is more of the EV neon
type anyway let's get back to the text
okay okay let's
go
based on what we learned in chapter 41
it will be well
understood and now
Jews
now what does God want of you a very
little thing I only ask a little thing
of
you to fear me fear
[Applause]
Him that's the way you're supposed to
read
it is fear is a small small change in
our
language some small
thing that's the G question answers the
gar a not in in in a not a means no in
means
yeah how is that small thing fearing
God
in in regards
to Etc it's a small thing asks the balat
the
no-brainer seemingly this is totally not
understood this piece
of the answer of
the the G is asking it says in
the what does God want of not
M what does the
answer you know you know why it's easy
by you because it's easy
for what's the connection between the
andash other words one one have to do
with the other I'm
I'm that's the question of the balatan
chapter 42 and Tanya the now answers his
own
question the idea
is every single Jew every
single it has an element of M in
it with the mosu inside
yourself hi M with the m everyone has a
little
m
because he's amongst the Seven
Shepherds that draw down Godly
energy
all it's a a Ru that there
seven Etc
right on and on who's the ch
the
so is the one who was given the task and
he draws
down
godliness to every single ye AB gives
every one of
us gives every one of
us what does
give look at the
words he draws down
that's why all the seven are called
Shepherds is the gener the general one
the one that represents all
seven and is called
Loyal
Shepherd faithful
Shepherd R is means Ro it's Aramaic
m in other words we don't call a
the we don't
call specifically only is
called
only
says you know why
because it's not we made a before
general statement he draws down
godliness to every Jew in what
particular way through
Das what is D focus and
concentration he gives every Jew the
ability to know God not just to believe
in God but to know him to understand
him the
therefore the pur every ye's source and
his
nourishment in this aspect of knowing
god comes
from which is rooted in
theal this is the Tactical place where
this issue of Das is formed in theer of
the 10er of
because they're spos therefore they're
United with
their meaning the Creator but in the
world ofus we call it we don't call it
bem and
his one and he is the knower and the
knowledge as we quoted in chapter two in
T and in another place that the for the
r Hashem is the knower the the knowing
and the thing that's known and all that
it's all one so who gives a Jew this
idea and that's whyu is
called I point out to you something very
interesting and important to know that
all the other six Shepherds the six
are galic they're our Shepherds right
they're giving us something but not
giving us the
key the key is given to us by as it says
in z quotes it
later the key is
given to the mid right there's the six
midles is the to open up the heart is
through
D won't do it won't do it will only do
and only do I'm doing go but what key do
you have to open up all
the
pipes D and what's Das to understand God
and who gives us
Das and that's why he's called the
faithful
Shepherd he's not called a faithful
Shepherd people make a mistake I don't
to it's a
mistake that faithful Shepherd means he
gives AA yes he gives AA but it's the
predicated it's not H one second one
second don't jump it's not a an amuna
that's kind of a childish amuna I
believe everyone believes what what do
you believe what do you know to
believe right you need to know to
believe that although you know and
understand belief is even greater but if
you don't know your belief is
rudimentary
so the AL says here that the the is
called the faithful Shepherd because he
instills D in every single Jew iser what
do you want to
say yeah I would I would understand if
it all came through tus yakob or through
y
from and now we say the Das is
above and epod but mosha
is how do we that no that's you're
you're you're you're counting the
spheros what you're doing which is
correct right so we have the Seven
Shepherds and each one of them is
connected connected an energy
representative of us right that's one
calculation and one observation which is
true but that's not what is ConEd the en
energy of NSA right that's when you're
looking at the spheros we're not looking
at the
spheros we're looking we're looking at
another aspect your yourin and your
thinking is correct and it's brought
down in cab when we look at the spheros
we're not looking at the spheros we're
looking now at
the the the roim as they are only seven
not 10 there's 10 spheros how does it
match with the
seven and and and and in thisin and in
this
perspective this is
not this comes from the
calls so the AL is asking why is he
called now it could be I would have to
you know look further it could be that
the aspect of n is also associated with
um that actually I remind myself that's
what it says in
B in bani it says that n is the most
powerful thing why because endurance and
P and
perseverance is is is is more powerful
than anything else
and I think that may be the key is if
it's endurance or eternity and
perseverance it's from mosha comes down
to every Jew in every generation okay
okay okay so make that Association okay
so in bosani by the way over the years
the Reb said it
for from 1911 1951 to 19 the
1980s especially the last 10 years he
spoke a lot about the n and um in the
last mimer that we consider the last
will in Testament before he became ill
the which they they they published as
like the last MIM of the Reb although
was said in 1981 way before he became
ill um there is conversation about and I
don't recall if he focuses on but but
what I'm saying is here I don't I the AL
here I don't see him tackling that that
issue he he's not he's not coming from
that issue he's talking now about the
sh the Seven Shepherds and why m is
called R and the others aren't and his
his answer is
because and is the is the key to
Faith that's what it says here in
Tanya so so it seems to me that he's
he's going on a a different trajectory
than what you mentioned iser which is
another
another another way of of of of dealing
I'm not dealing with the issue but not
as the issue pertains to what we're
learning here here he asked a very
simple question it says that every
Jew should fear me fear God and just
simple and it's easy and the gor says
yes for mha it's easy so the Bal asks
how could that be what does mosa have to
do with me and the answer is every one
of us has a little mosa in it then he
goes out to say you know how great this
MOA that you have is and why you
needu in other words by explaining here
that what M does it
justifies the gamar the in other words
this is explaining a gamor so we have to
understand the
gamorra there might be other
explanations in the gor but the Al's
explanation of the gor is that why does
the gor say it's easy
for to have because it's easy for mha
and the answer he says is because he has
a part of mha in him how does he have a
part of mha so then he and this is going
to be much of this chapter he's going to
open it up and show very much thatu is
in the Consciousness and the reality of
every Jew and we'll continue tomorrow
talking about it more have a great day Z
