Gimmel Tammuz Farbrengen - Rebbe's Mashiach drive is fulfilled daily by doing things for Mashiach

so it's um three days before gimbal thomas and uh so let's uh let's update a little bit to talk a little bit about our director this is 28th uh yard site so um as much as we uh we want and demand moshiach not just sitting back on our loins for him to show up and uh inspire us when there's something that's good you have to go out of your way to to demand it that's what the rebel said when he initiated his we want mashiach kind of campaign in the 80s so he said that eden are asking for mashiach for thousands of years 1900 years so what's the kids what's the novelty here and what we understood after he explained the whole idea is that is that it's not enough to animate i believe and means i wait for him for him to come that ever said no longer is waiting good enough now we have to demand and push forward and do activities that are oriented specifically for mashiach and if someone wants to really honor the rebels nishama and and and wants to know what he was driven towards for the 42 years that he was the seventh laboratory and after continues to be the laboratory from there's not even a question and yes he taught so much to you and everything and he and he sent out him and to help jews and even the non-jews in 1983 i believe he started the shepherd mitzvah's name they have campaign it's all true but what what does it all consist of one goal one mission mashiach should come and that's why in that ebba said that sikha which took us for a ride and really uh really surprised us and uh more so it was very painful those that were you know serious about it it was very painful when the rapper said i've done whatever i can and now it's up to you now you could take to bring mashiach now you could take that statement and he said even more so which siddham generally don't repeat because it's too painful that he said whatever i've done till now is it's for naught he said those words so you know when you think about it what do you mean you know you've been sending out rabbis and worldwide you've been teaching tata for 40 years uh your your congregation your your hasidah qasidic movement has grown from from a post holocaust uh you know few to so many etc etc so what do you mean everything you've done is for naught that's a question that a serious lubavitcher or anyone if he wants to he has respect for the barbecue and he wants to understand what he meant and it's very simple very simple you don't need any you know kabbalistic insight he's saying compared my mission this is this is the way i see it my mission is to bring mashiach my mission for claudia's role is mashiach has come depormish everything else is secondary is ancillary so even though i've done all these good things it hasn't brought machia so in the in the greater picture in the greater picture what is it worth now of course we mean a mitzvah's eternal mixes valuable he doesn't need to discount that and you get your scar but bottom line where is mr mashiach it didn't happen and that's that's that was a very very painful thing but the the words that he began that part of that talk were very uh what's the word i'm looking for very uh therapeutic and they were whoever said i did whatever i can and now it's up to you that was empowering the jew empowering the hussain so here again you'll say wait a minute and then what 10 years before that when he when he suggested putting on filling with eden and putting up mezuzah's and then giving to duck and all those mitzvah campaigns that that he that ever initiated the 1970s were not empowering the individual yes they were but the emphasis then wasn't on machia the emphasis now in this kind of last will and statement that he made he empowered the individual and he's saying what it says in the tata and here we go back to a very important point that it's gimbal thomas and it's very important to understand this and emphasize it whether it's the belgentif whether it's they didn't or whether it's they didn't come to create a new toyota that's that's that's heresy and it's against potato they came to reveal within the tater the depth of taylor the mission of tata for the particular generation so there ever at this point in his life in 1991 and it's so interesting that just uh less than a year later he had a this you know debilitating stroke which ultimately led to his passing in 1994 he made that statement it's if you if you look at the the the historical facts it's it's blatant it's blatant that um assadic talks and you know you know in a way like he doesn't you know he talks and there's so much there if you look back that's the script was written and the script was that you know shortly my soul is returning to hashem and therefore i'm empowering you you people and he said get together he said one two three to to a minion and bring machia those were the words and he said it by the way with a lot of emotion and very emphatic so it had the the flavor it had the taste that had the the makeup of what could be considered could be perceived as someone who's desperate and guess what there's positive desperation holy desperation and there's negative desperation and this was positive holy desperation we need machine so i did whatever i can it hasn't happened yet you guys do it maybe you'll succeed in doing it so when we come to this day gimmel tables and this year it's this shabbos you also need to know something very important and the altitude says this in garrison from the zayra kaddish he's found more [Applause] here than he was from when he was alive that has nothing to do with hasidis that's zoya kurdish the outer redder in gary desh explains and he explains that since the content of azadek is faith and god love and all for hashem therefore when are those things more palpable and and less inhibiting after the physical body passes on and not before before yay there is a wife in their hasidim and there's constrictions and conformities as we discussed yesterday as israel brought to the table but after a pass a person passes on all of that is gone so now those that are left and those that fi that that believe and want to continue this reality i'm not going to use the word legacy but this mission have an open door and the proof is that since 1994 28 years ago the amount of chabad houses dissemination of tyrann qasidis and many and everything else is adam finnigan compared to what it was before and that's in the bank that's not you know me saying this here as i wanna be that's take a look at everything that's been done in 28 years it's it's it's really you know and i i come from the generation of the 70s and the 80s okay so i saw with my own eyes and i was part of that um budding chabad movement in the 70s that exploded in the 1990s well how they like the dot-com age they just took off how did it take off so desire says afro it took off because the limitations put on the saddik who was behind this particular movement and this particular approach he's no longer in the physical world so he's able to give all of himself and all of what he represented to the to those that to the world and those that want to fulfill that particular mission and this is true for everything this is not just for the debt but this is true for every subject but in this case it's clear and i i it's clear that the mission was to bring mashiach and and and i want to point out to you something else historically overall the belshamp we're learning now kunta she was the movement and the teaching of bringing mashiach and this is what alarmed an alarm the uh the academic world and the um frankly the ashkenazic lit lichfish world in the past the attitude was like whether you were you know a a uh ashkenaz german jew was like let god worry about those things and just don't don't don't touch that the academics going back even to the mendelssohn's and the and the people they too said like uh just leave that alone then when zionism came along and they came up with the idea of the that's where you know non-religious people and religious people also started to identify with the mashiach concept but of course through a you know zionistic lens and um and a lens of of uh you know of herzl and even those that were religious rough cook and all that it was a different type of lens that but but the lens did did talk about the oola the the the the the belchantov spoke about giula and his whole mission about giula and this this was a this was something innovation so therefore an innovation at least outwardly was an innovation so it alarmed people and there was uh you know fought with there was uh fall back and and upset people and et cetera and to the point where geshen sholum for example who studies the bolshev concocts it's it's fairy tales it's nonsense totally nonsense but he can you can you say more about what what what you mean by that what concocted that well the the you know sholem first of all argues that there was no real belchemtov and and the and the message was a message of you know of of hope of hope but you know there was no real belgento and and if there was an individual who lived and was called that way he was nothing special and he was turned into a a miracle-maker that's that's the message of of sholem and and company he wasn't the only one and until today there is that school of thought martin buber right right martin buber martin buber was even more extreme sholum was a little more uh to the center a little more but boober i meant actually boober thank you for saying that martin buber um it's interesting you mentioned just for a moment the rebbe someone had cited in a in a footnote and any and the rebel checked what he asked the rabbit to check his work and the river course crossed out the reference to boober because the blooper denies the authenticity of the belgentov but that school of thought still exists my friends if you think it doesn't it does it's waned it's much less you know um because we do have today religious professors like uh professor schwartz at barillon uh these are froome professors of benjamin benjamin brown my my good colleague at uh um yerushalayi hebrew university i mean these are these are massive massive you know uh scholars in in their work and and they're from you know then maybe not hasidic but the the you know and they believe that there was about champion the hasidic movement has a value but going back to the point i'm making is that the bashar tov came to to bring to introduce mashiach via citizen so the academics today when they talk about those no it's whether it be the academics who deny belgium or the academics in a sense who do agree they they they pinpoint that has citizen came to give the jewish people hope of salvation via mashiach now every lie has some truth to it right there's truth to that there's absolutely truth to that but the question is in in in in what is the what is the way you spin it that's the question so if you spin it that this is a fable and a bubble myself and it's giving false hope therefore then you know stay away from that and this was the taina of the muslim going back 200 years ago don't think you know i wanted to say for the record in a way don't think that the most not them of 200 years ago didn't have a position didn't have an argument they did their argument was this is going to lead god forbid to devastation where jews will be again disappointed because the khasidic movement has convinced jews that mashiach is a reality and we have to do things to bring mashiach and he doesn't come so again we're back to false messiahs what did the the rabbi that ever dealt with this question by the way indirectly and he said many times that the accusation the fear we understand but now look at the result 200 years later no one who's hasidic i mean you know had dropped their judaism because mashiach is not here we're talking about no one you know we're talking about basically most people so in other words your concern is that this will lead to um devastation uh depression you know giving up hope it didn't happen on the contrary look at hasidic jews how involved they are in thailand so that was their that this that was the rebels counter all the years to the to the literature movement that you know i understand the concern 200 years ago of the vilna going etc and and his people but now the last hundred years uh poland was full of garrett and alexander hasidim hungary was full of hungarian and you know and and then american energy like so okay the fear is over yes major how much i [Music] a question of what you're saying sure um [Music] we have here we we've seen now within the last am this is my this is my opinion but i think we've seen within the last 10 15 years um an emergence of [Music] light which we we've seen what the 15 years of what last fact of fringe no no sex like uh groups like cults almost i would say i i would put them in the i would put them in the category of cults cults you mean like the left to heart yeah that's perfect example okay okay we have here we have i would say there exists what i would put to be people who are probably aligned with wave to thank you um you have tori carter which i'll put into a cartoon when it's different but well the point i'm the point of my question is that um how do we [Music] i mean and by the way any all these groups i didn't i don't even know if if any of these groups i don't know if any of these groups could really claim um that they're tied to the balchemtov but i would say but i would say that some of them particularly in that among certain individuals i would say let's say aggressive there could be people who people who would associate with breast love some there are there are also some breasts on on the real fringe like that i would put is as like almost like in a cult category so what i'm what i'm what i'm asking is um i think we do have today individuals even groups that are on the fringe um and i think that they caused a lot of cause a lot of problems okay and i i i got it i understand what you're asking and the answer is the answer is that um [Music] you always will have i can use a word which i shouldn't use but you always have you use the word cults some people use the word mushugoyan what does the word sugar mean meshuggah means people who are obsessed and convinced that this is the way to do it and we have that in cabaret as you know and i don't want to really go into that but khabad has its share of of of of those you know people like that and uh express of you know any extreme is was not was not tolerated by the was not what the and his tell me them until today want that's it and if a person feels that their particular rebel and hasidim and group is going in that direction they have a right to reassess and make a decision if they want to continue if there's for but the decision has to be from the soul not from the cup you see from the head if you make a decision it's not necessarily legitimate it could be but it could be also not the question is be the soul now what do i mean this ties in actually with the belgento the whole idea of a rebel versus a rav and a godo right what's the difference like you know what we're celebrating the rebels yard site we're talking about the learning with the belsham and the countries right and they're doing they're upon him where did you come along here the answer is and i've told this before and i repeat it the answer is that is a soul geologist no one's gonna say and i've actually took data and questioned people who were telling me them of great rabbanim and russia shivas and i asked them clearly i'll give you an example i spoke to someone who was very close to robbie hutner like a child and he thought and he got engaged and i asked him did you ask for rabbi hutna's blessing to the point that if he would have not blessed you you would have not got married and he said absolutely not not even a question that's the answer a husset if he doesn't get his lapis broca a real husset of any rebel he's not married and if he does he's sorry to say he's not a real cousin he likes his rebbe he gets inspired but he's not yet a real closet and that motion makes the difference so if you're a real hussit you don't do things that fits your fancy or you decide this is the way to do it that's the absolute opposite of balchimtov so do we have those fringe uh elements and groups today yes and you see the result of of a lathe tar i mentioned that because it's all over you know i mean do you need a you know so when you go and do things on your own it's it's and even if it's a group it's fraught with problems but the tendency is human nature that's the way human nature is i want to go back to the brain because time is short so the rebels mission of bringing the shia was very unique amongst jews rebels and even to his predecessors no one before him in chabad put such an emphasis and doing whatever you're doing is to bring bashir a step closer and i could tell you that he succeeded in this because again i'm not bragging but i lived in the 70s i lived when it was kind of pre mashiach fever so i lived before and i lived in and i lived after and there's no question that whatever your your involvement with is by the person who is kind the least misha you know what i'm saying still there's something burning inside that individual above what am i doing today to bring mashiach and that's what he wanted that's what the rebel wanted he wanted every ye to ask himself that question that and that's what he meant with two outs of us do whatever your what it is to feel there's something missing and this message is alive now as it was 28 years ago now naturally one of the arguments is how has chabad blossomed so much for the last 28 with years without a living grabber well there's a a balabati answer to that which i'm sure you've thought about when you don't have someone sitting on the throne you know and directing yes and no you you each everyone makes their own decisions in a way you know and that much it feeds into what you're saying that that's how groups create their own decisions because there's a breakdown on leadership and that ebba and there ever was such a leader that everyone like it was in a way there was no independence although he gave so much the independence but everyone kicked it back to him so what happened after he passed away 28 years ago it's like we're lost but then the baba just say wait a second we're not lost because he said we should do whatever it is so whatever it is that means i ha i have to do it the problem you run in with that is you need leaders we spoke about conformity someone sent me uh youtube who watched the youtube of yesterday is sir and and it was a woman who i know and she happens to she's like a little she's not officially in the barbershop but she learns the barbecue cities about citizens she's really a fire brand and and a serious one and she said you know there is a good thing to conformity conformity to your rough conformity to your rabbit and if that's your conformity that's kevaldig and that's the point my that's the point when groups go into their own fantasies and they don't check with what the literature world calls das torah what the hasidic world calls you know a rebbe what the what the rapper suggests that you deep them within them and things like that then people go off and in their own tangents but going back to gimmel thomas it's a day this shabbos that minimize your sleep minimize your idle conversation it's really full of holy energy and we all have personal needs community needs family needs this is a smart tv because the tsadik's the summer comes into the world on the day of the yard site the shabbos like i said yesterday you know trying to get nalia light a lighter lift a candle before shabbos you know uh try to learn a mimer a part of a mimer from the rubber hasidic for brandon that means yes maybe you have to schlep a little bit in the heat and i'm talking about myself too it's good i'm going to be leading up a brand in boca raton and it's going to be 90 degrees already so that means 90 to 95. so um it's going to be a sweltering heat but that's it that's it you got to do it you know if you don't do it the shabbos and and the treasure is open whatever it's an opportunity moshe was just saying he's doing a kiddish and uh exactly we're on absolutely i am convinced that a lot of people will say look i am and and and a lot of people that maybe that love it today but they were touched by chabad and you know so it's a great opportunity and whether it's moisture yani or issue ever whoever everybody leave people with something practical not just okay like i am and give suggest something concrete you know such a simple thing if if if i'm giving an example if if people can just read online or in the hyena or or through the safe room the hygiene is short and the rebel was the one who compiled it it's not his tradition it's from the previous rebbe's talks and letters but it's something that he put out in 1943 that's a very practical thing and i think it will go a very long way for many people in their avedas hashem the fabregan is not made to make another laboratory there is such a fabric that's a different type but you know this this id you know what i'm saying this is that sadiq who who who mamish put his life and you think about it that ebb was born in 1902 he lived through 1905 to the russian japanese war he lived through world war one he lived through world war ii he lived through you know vietnam he lived through pearl harbor i mean he wasn't there but he mamash passed away right in 1994 that's almost 100 years that's a generation that that's the century it's a person you know and he wasn't the only one who salvation also lived in and others but he somehow because of his uh because of who he was and the style that he used he had a connection with all kinds of people way beyond most other rebels and most other other rabona they that wasn't their cup of tea that wasn't their interest so let's say the moa says godaily amongst themselves and all their people they were very powerful and got together you know what i'm saying but that was a limited group the rca and the mizrahi movement had their group you know what i'm saying with the red bag you see in 1960 61 a whole group of rca rabbis come to see him and ask him if he can help them they're going to go to russia you know soviet united ussr and and you know can him coming from russia can he help them and and this is uh uh you know nothing uh from jm in the am his father um siegel no malcolm siegel's father was rabbi siegel and he was a big man what he's gonna he's gonna play it he has an interview every year he plays he's gonna play it i think tomorrow it's the interview that he interviews i think it was it was an interview with his father about the rebel he does it every year right so so i'm just giving he's one then a few weeks ago i heard a rabbi uh baroque bernard poopka who was an orthodox rabbi in pittsburgh came from russia they have a clip online you have to you have to listen to you he speaks an eloquent english it's you know with an accent a little bit and he speaks about what he saw in russia and he he talks about their ever it blew me away it blew me away you know he's coming from you know a literature background and he says you people don't know who the la babachir ever is and he doesn't divulge because he had a pro they had private conversations about what he says but i could tell you there's no one in the world that knows what's going on in russia it's 1961 or so better than this never sitting in brooklyn new york so you know the sacramento didn't have that lebron cutler didn't have that it just weren't that wasn't their world this would bother china this was his world and because this was his world um he you know it was a a great great way of bringing yiddish kite to all not just to non-religious people that's another mistake people make that the rabbi just like the like i thought yesterday the mistake is with the bolshevik came to address the ignorant it's wrong but shantiv came to address the talmud i'm learning in ponovich as much as the as the guy on the street with the ponytail there's no difference the message here was one way and the message here was another same with this same idea his message was the same in different ways the different groups so these are some things that you could think about over shabbos and to make ah to get some tadaka before to one of the rebels institutions you know it's important to do that to give sadaka stuck his plate of the nephesh a pigeon and those um that want i'll be at the oil tomorrow morning i won't be there giving thomas if you know something that's going to be the gimbal thomas give him your name and names for requests or send it into the oil they have you know what are we meeting tomorrow right now i don't see that it's possible because uh i have to go on a plane but if i'm able to like last time teach from the airport lounge over there i'll do that so but i i don't see it so the answer now is no and if there's a change i'll let you know those that can that can join that's be great i would like to but i you know it's it's it's tight because my daughter's going to camp and uh whatever and you know it's uh the airlines now the delays are the fair and it's july 4th weekend this weekend so i gotta get out early because i got this chavatone that i have to lead so if i don't make it there i'm in trouble so i'm starting rather when are you coming back to new york i don't know we'll see how we see how long uh i could tolerate the 90 degrees and i'm gonna do swimming you know got to keep this goof in shape my son has a pool so we'll see we'll see we'll see we'll see could be three we could be till if i could manage i'd like to come back eric nine days you know i would like if i could tolerate it um but we'll see you know anyway able to help the summer of the rabbit i don't i don't we don't say his name benjana should should have an aliyah and we should all uh be part of that and we should inspire ourselves our children grandchildren family and friends and everyone else and this and taken we should merit that mashiach should come the poem is not a fantasy world with the antennas going up like in mars but right here on earth so everything is good oh man yes i
