Israel: How to change enemies from not killing ppl - Is there hope for ceasefire? Rabbi Chaim Dalfin

on page we're on page me me it's in chapter 37 and we are about seven lines from the bottom um the line begins with the word nit who 1 2 3 4 four five six seven actually seven exactly seven lines for the bottom it be the line begins nit were five words into the line briefly has is teaching us here that the purpose of the creation as he ex as he spoke about in chapter 36 to make a Dwelling Place according to is expressed in all aspects of of life from the person to the object to the overall world making a de a home forem only only in one part of your life say only within yourself but not within the world is lacking so you haven't completed the job so if you if if if a person decides I'm going to isolate myself have nothing to do with the world and work on myself it's Tak very good very important but the da is not means down and dirty okay in in the boots like I've told you many times those boots are made for walking in those boots you have to walk with Hashem if you don't walk in those boots with hasem you haven't made a complete and so also the other the other The Other Extreme I'm only going to run around putting on fil with Eden and putting up muas and then going visit people and all that but myself I don't refine and I I have a rough character and I have anger and I have impatience and on and on you also have a made then says and this is really where we're at now that the that you as a Jew are responsible for from on high that you that we are commanded and instructed is to make the da within the whole world within the go and within every object in the world that that's a fascinating idea too because like the argument goes and you've heard it hey you you have to worry about CH you've taken care of all the Jews it's one of the arguments when the Reb came out with they to publicize the the the you know the world the rightwing Orthodox World it says but he took care of all the Jews all the Jews already putting onas what are you running after G for and what's the answer it's a good question the answer is a the ra says it so it's not the it's not his it's a clear RAM so if you have a Tina tinina to the ram that's number one and everyone accepts the rambam even the the good heartcore lit Fox and the uh the uh the brisker you learn a ram the is everything so the r says it but besides that the Reb explained that if you don't touch the if that's not part of our mission then we haven't done the you know my son-in-law um who's in Aviv he was uh he was you know he was called up um for you know on the rabbi side Etc so one of the things that he did I think it went even I if it went viral but that's my son-in-law that he went into a the Army wanted him to go into an Arab School in where in the north somewhere and and he taught them about God it's online that's you know so first first I got like come on you know like how can you trust them maybe someone's going to come there and knife you you know or shoot you but he he did it and but thinking about it the idea putting aside the fear is what Hashem wants Hashem wants that these children who are being raised you know the this is in in you know in Arab schools that are in in Isel where supposedly they are you know uh friendly and Friends of of Isel it's hard to believe but that's what they say so to teach them from their very youth about there's one one God and God you know loves people and killing is not an answer that's not just to the Arabs and you think about it that's what a did what did a do why did a the patriarch the first Jew Abu what does he do he messes around with Wayfarers who come to buy his his lunchette or his dining uh Diner in in the desert and he gives him food and says thank God if in monotheism if not you have to pay a hefty Bill like why B why bother with the scum the answer is that not scum if they made them they not SC it's Bri brius it's creatures of God there's many creatures that mess themselves up and get involved in scum and do SC terrible things but from the aish perspective every Bria is a Bria and that's by the way as you think about it we would never we we the Jewish people even with our enemies you know we're killing them now but no one's cutting off heads of people and babies and burning them in cages and all that you know barbaric uh you know Nazism iism you know it's it's it's not it's not just cuz it's not our nature it's not what God wants of a creature you hear the vot it's not just because we don't have it within us we're we're our DNA as Jews is differently it's it's a lot deeper than that it's because that is anti- anti- God it's anti hasem that of what he wants of humanity so the AL here in this chapter in 37 addresses this by with with one concept as he elaborates and that is that the has to be in the lower and lowest elements of the world let's continue now seven lines from the bottom middle of the line in all the worlds of the four worlds and no spark descended into this world although it has it it takes upon itself this great descent and and and it's captured it's Eng G it can't do what it wants and this applies even to even if person is a complete s serving God with all and love a tremendous abundant love of delights which is tremendous love for God it compares s it it it it pales in comparison to the to the love andus and attachment that the soul had to hasem with awe and love prior prior to its descent to the physical world and he adds the words not not not not a not a trap of it not not a not an aota of it and he adds more verbage more ad and there's no comparison whatsoever as known to every muscul every person who's thoughtful Turn the Page please the top 96 what is every muscle no right V you're a MUSC you'd have to know this the body cannot tolerate an a a Godly experience that's over helming you know yesterday A friend of M sent me some podcast of two the biters you know but with their own ideas talking about angels you're not an angel you can't handle Angelic feelings you you could you could talk about them you could maybe take a taste you're not an angel and and guess what you're not even a soul the way the souls are in heaven so the Goof forget of having an LSD Out of Body Experience or or going on a trip you know we're not talking about that type of supposedly uh an but my body can't handle it and you know and I and I and I and I lose myself as spoke about and of which I'm very well aware of and and wrote a little bit about I'm not going to go into it now whether that's true or not cuz I never took LSD so I can't talk about it but but what I could say is that the here means that the body the physical body of a person cannot tolerate a true love and fear of God the way the soul has pre pre pre- descending into a body okay so even if we'll argue that a kind of an LSD experience is some kind of you know out of body experience it pales in comparison to the true Out of Body Experience when when the soul is not in the body pre pre- body and why is that because the M the DNA the makeup of the physical body the way God created the body everybody every every every person's body from the beginning of time till the end of time time Etc and this is a very important Point especially for students when they you know students are radicals and they if they get into you knowem sometimes they they want to they want to flip out like we had it yesterday in SHO a guy in the morning came into Sho at 5:30 and they tell me I missed the fun I said oh no what happened someone came in he said he was faric and he started to cry and he started to shout that he God doesn't forgive him for his sins that he threw himself on the floor they had to call shme they so he went into the the coffee room I wanted a coffee I went in and and I said to him I said you're a good ye you have a good take it easy and he calmed down he was calm and he left without all without and police they called to police someone I told the police it's fine you can go you know but you know doing chuva with painting yourself and and and and torturing yourself is not the way to do it so let's continue Topline 96 what is the purpose of the Soul it comes into the world to invest itself into this body of ours and this vivifying Soul who look what says here here it is it's to correct only to only correct the body and the and to separate it to to separate it from the real dirty stuff the real schut the negativity of the 33 Clippers how do you do that by playing golf playing tennis by guarding keeping the 365 prohibitions and at the same time I'm sorry skip the line and their branches and simultaneously not only by doing what you're not allowed to do but to elevate the the the vivifying soul with its portion that means each and everyone has a portion in the world we are responsible for not your friend to bind it to unite it with the infinite God how is it done it'll be given to the person this energy when you unite the world through through doing all 248 positive Commandments using your physical your spirit your your animating Soul the the she he he again repeats it it it it that that that ugly thing that we don't like that's in us and makes us want and all that it it is guess what you don't do mitz with the wings of an Angel and you don't do M with uh you know yipper at in over your head you do MIT mes by going into the hospital and not being able to join a sheer and do surgery and save a soul and save alive M my and every one of us in the our way that's that's what it says but I'd rather be in sure I'd rather be yes I'd rather be with my family hey fellow you have time for that chabas yum during the week go out and work cuz that's what hasem wants let's continue as it says portal 26 okay that's our itself does not need TI if you if we think that the soul is here we're doing it a favor in in the pure sense and says wrong the sh sh is pretty is okay it's it's it's good so why does it have to come here if the is all good Let It bask in your Radiance why did you send it down here it's to draw down light through fixing the body in the world so then you draw down an energy that Vis A doing the tick of the world in itself Lo it doesn't need TI The Tick is needed by the world and your so says he get down there help the person be m in the world says this concept is a dma is an example is similar to why The Godly Sparks were put into Gus they're after all of they're they're Godly Sparks Godly Sparks mean they come from God if they come from God they're good they're good why do you have to send them into this mess why they're Godly Sparks and the answer is this is the secret of GS The Secret of Gus is that we need to extract the Sparks from the gmas yeah so you got you go back to America and you happen to be in your hometown and you walk the streets of Westwood of Evon of any University that you went to a Princeton whatever wherever you went to and over there you think TAA you've extracted a spark that's in the street of Princeton Evon UCLA or wherever else you hung out when you were 15 when you're 17 18 1920 and it's been 30 40 years and when you think TA in your head walking on those same cobblestones and side walk you've extracted a spark that's what Hashem wants that's what yes yes yes I wanted to say a quick story that um uh mha sambar was the brother of and he he made his living as a pedler and so one time he asked his brother the rebel why why U when he goes out and he D when he's on the road and he's in the fields his daving is so much better than it is a sure and uh so um reie answered said because uh the the holy Sparks that are in all those places have been waiting for how long for a je to come to attach themselves to that's that's the idea that's the idea let's continue says with this idea we will understand an amazing idea that raved about means raved about adds the the words not only they Rave about but very much so about the virtue of giving let's see what giving is equivalent to all this is a famous quote that that the AL quotes that's always repeated and in the entire Jerusalem tal when you learn Jerusalem tal and you see in in the gar there the mitzvah says the bat that it refers to the specific Mitzvah of because so it was the accustom language to call not by the name but by the name mitvah did you do a Mitzvah today according to in in youri terms it means that you give SED to today so the question is why why why does Seda get the the virtue of being called mitz right it reminds me once a uh a good litvak said to me we had a conversation he said to me why do you the batur call rebba it means there are many rebas he says I'm against that there's this rabba is that rabba like and I said to him huh you really like all rbas you just have an issue with laab just calling St re is re as there's no other rebers uhhuh but you you're you're ready to go to the Carina and to the Buster and to the S right when the last time you showed up fella you know get C you know but the point is there is there is truth there is truth at least in the false world re on the internet means the re it's become that way whether we like it or we don't so in thei in thei the the mitah is called MIT so that's a that's wow we don't have to even say which re we don't have to say which Mitzvah we know it means to doubt but wants to know why is that and he says the following because the is the the end all of all MIT Mitzvah of deed SED is demonstrative of MIT and it it's it's over the it it goes over the top over all the others because all mitzvah what's the purpose of a Mitzvah to elevate your animal drive to God for it is what fulfills the thez and it's the animal drive that invest itself in the to incorporate itself in God there is no other mitah other than the midst of s where there's so much of the animal of the vivifying animal Drive in a right when you put on your arm at that moment is putting on when you give you earned work you earned that means to earn a to earn money you you went to school you studied you learned you got a degree you got a profession or or you went to Yesa right so in other words and then from that you make you have a job and you make parosa and now you take from the parosa the money you made and you give it away the S so in that one giving OFA all of you for all the years that you've invested is expressed in that dollar and that water that you give to that that you give to so it's the only mitvah the balat says here that is all inclusive of all Mitzvah and that's why it's called Mitzvah CH fasting all it's all individual mitv fasting has nothing to do with what you did 30 years ago in school right but giving TOA is a compilation of all the hard work that you did all your life that's what he says that person gives from his hard work all of his animal all of his verifying Drive is invested in the work or another type of job making him earn this money his entire ascends to the anemy okay wait a minute what about someone who doesn't benefit from your so you're telling me that through my it elevates all of me but what if someone doesn't benefits the potential is there the fact that one person gets your T and the other person doesn't means that the potential is within Thea to to vivify and energize and help every person that's also a big a big KES in this chapter that the AL says that the the MIT of elevates all the person at all times even when the Seda doesn't reach a certain person or a certain project but the fact is that that the Seda has that potential so in other words we have to look at the object not at the receiver of the object we go on out to page top ofest say specifically regarding giving that it Hast the Redemption why why doesn't fill and hasten the Redemption because through one act of you elevate much of the vivifying Soul you wouldn't be able to reach as much of the through doing other mitz as you do through so that's why Gula GAA what's Gula what's Redemption the collective Redemption of the Jewish people and all the Divine Sparks with Hashem that means hello please mute yourself oh me I thought I heard a drone anyway sorry joke anyway um the the S one act of s elevates the the the entire person and the entire world because it incorporates everything what's G the same idea everyone and everything will be reunited with Hashem so that's why kazal say specifically about the MIT of not not fastinger but so here to what we see from this idea that the AL brings is is all inclusive if you if we argue that g is only for the ones with big pis or the ones with k rugus or the ones only fighting in the war I'm sorry that's not Gula it's important but it's not Gula Gula means that every single Jew and every single spark world over recognize and says through one act of and that's why the mitvah the plain Mitzvah without identifying that s elevates the entire person it's all of you it's all inclusive and so this is a another maybe new insight for us to think about the importance of giving to duck it's not just you know someone asks they need help and all that the point is that the ACT is is is is is demonstrative of G of in in inclusivity of all people and all things at one time let's continue now asks a rhetorical question hey he says wait a second we have AAL that say the study of is equivalent to everything so what am I making this big deal about this is now his retort is using your mouth and your thought they are considered the inner garments of the soul and also the essence of the soul is has is incorporated when you stud intellectually although it's very nice we can study T but it doesn't change yourid we know that the average person the B who this Tanya was written for the average person his his his or and her uh mid are not transformed to the point where there's no urges that's a not a refes that very important line that's because MOS are much more powerful than the intellect of why and that's because paba the mid tap in to the highest energy intellect is flut and to it's very nice and it's very great and your achievements and you're you know and Professor this and right but it's only flut and to Mid when you're a bid you're a mench and you have refined character you touch the essence so says because it's such a difficult task the ban is not charged with transformation of the mid right and we're not talking here about I don't want you to walk away with those if so you could be a a jerk excuse me no can't you shouldn't be a jerk you should be a mench but to expect transformation of mid that that's that's a wrong expectation and people make this mistake the anger the impatience the U that's our reality and guess what it's our reality till we return our souls to Hashem as long as we maintain it and as we control it and we improve it that's what Hashem wants from us so the AL says here don't you're asking me a question seemingly learning t with the mind is Con right is equal to all Mitzvah so why not just learn why not why why I'm saying why take time to invest ourselves in the act of Mitzvah not everyone has to do a Mitzvah but to emphasize Mitzvah what's the answer the answer is the answer is that that to begin with the the result of Mitzvah if you're if you're if you're looking for transformation you're on the wrong you're on the wrong path you're not a sadic when you learn but but when you learn with your SE says like we're doing in our we're learning we're trying to understand right what happens is our words and our mind which is at the end of the day still right right that comes from that soul that verifies us right gets a transformation so this is this is the this is the bottom line from this piece of T that with and this is why it's a that even by the the of a can have a transformation the mid cannot have a transformation but the SE can have a transformation and that ties in with today is the's yard site and his birthday the second Reb tomorrow is we don't say so those that you know that want to say you're tomorrow like I said three days three days a year you can say you're tomorrow and those three days we don't say everyone agrees there's no disagreement because it says right so so if you want to put on theab hat for three days and really mean it what's theot theot is that the the the ethos of kabad that the Mind should also go along by understanding God that in that you have Choice that's where Einstein and and and laav Aristotle and and all the intellects there they score points in that level to to to to I don't want to use the word radicalize to transform better the the the mind to God can't transform so therefore if you if you learn and you learn and learn you D you D and you still have a tithe and you say what's my learning with what's my doing worth I'm still a beher duh like oh you really expected not to be a beher uhhuh just you're a beher but tame your beh control your Bahamas that you could do and how through the cup through learning through thinking it's no good to be addicted it's no good alcohol Etc it ruins you it hurts you you know you don't need it it's just a wasted experience and you have so much to offer and you have such a wonderful mind let's see how we could take your wonderful mind and and make the world a better place so there is the ability of transformation in the kabad and that's what he says here so that's another very revolutionary thought that the balatan positions here in chapter 37 that for the average person transformation of mid is not possible but transformation of SE is possible stay safe and let's hope we'll have good news and better news and will see everyone tomorrow take care amen byebye take care great
