so good day to everyone we're learning
chapter 36 in
Tanya twice
high and we're on page MV 46 MV in the
Hebrew and we are
at six lines from the
top after the period it's the line
begins with the
words
to briefly
recap in chapter
36 reveals to
us
a and that is that there is no logical
reason why God created this
world it's
simply is not was is a spiritual
infatuation
that God had he woke up one
day and he decided he wants a
world why world how World good world not
good
World
irrelevant and if you think about this I
didn't say this yesterday and I'm
thinking about it now so I share it with
you there are people that argue why
should I marry why should I reproduce
why should I bring in
children into a world that's full of
chaos challenges
Wars
evil
right and logically there is an
argument there is an
argument so the answer is at the end of
the day the answer is because God said
so just like Hashem himself decided he
want wants a world it's
illogical the angels and and and the
celestial beings and the souls are much
greater why didn't he make his world
there and say hey I get pleasure from
talking to the angels from hanging out
with Souls what do I need to have the
physical man and the physical object
Hashem says it's not your business
that's what I want but it it's not fair
who says Fair who says about being fair
you decide and I have to be fair now use
that same
argument with reproducing and bringing
children into the world it's not up to
us and I'm not just saying this about
Jews even about
non-jews it's the same thing God wants
people to inhabit the world and God
knows very well that there are all the
issues so at times you come across this
argument and especially
today I
recall you know I recall having here a a
um a drama student from the Netherlands
from
Amsterdam and she wanted to observe
aabad family so we let her into our
house for a few
days and later it's published and it's
online
uh in the Jewish television St station
of the Netherlands of Amsterdam you
could look it up
probably
anyway so we we said to her she was like
what you would call from a reformed home
from a home of parents who were Jewish
but didn't belong to you know a from
didn't have a from background so she
told
us that she was living with
someone you know and um
and explained to us that in Amsterdam
this is like 10 10 years ago now in
Amsterdam it's surely this way here in
America and in many places all over you
know today because it's so expensive to
get married you know it's expensive to
live and it's expensive to die you got
to pay for
everything so so
so they basically live together you know
what we call shacking up you know and
and and they're wonderful people really
and they live a life what do they need
to have
marriage mean he was not Jewish you
know her boyfriend but I'm saying the
whole concept she was saying is that
there's this Movement by the youth and
more and more young people
that marriage is not necessary from a
from a human perspective it's not
necessary that was the her
argument with the same two people living
in the same bedroom you know and and if
we want to have kids we could try having
kids if not
not that whole that whole point is
contrary to what we'll learn here in
chapter 36 in Tanya that everything is
God it begins and ends with God and he
decides and if he says Humanity should
marry it's healthy and good that's what
he wants in other words not because it's
healthy that's what he wants you want to
find reasons if you can find reasons but
even if you come up with reasons why it
shouldn't be that's too expensive it's
unnecessary I can get out of this
relationship easier and all
that that's not what the T says that's
not what Hashem wants Hashem wants two
people to be committed to each other
under what we call the marriage ceremony
Etc so all of this is part and this is
the answer also to today's issues with
transgenders and and and that whole
movement everything that's going
on at the the end of the day if you use
SE if you use logic they have arguments
they have
positions who says I can't decide how to
you know live my life like a male or a
female even though I was born one way or
the other the answer
is logic allows you to do that the
answer is only God only Hashem so the
Alan chapter
36 makes that very clear to us and in
regard to ourselves to
us if you look at the language on the
bottom of page 90 chapter
36 he
says that's where it begins and that's
where it ends
SOI it ascended in God's
will it didn't begin in a jazz club it
didn't begin in a base medish it didn't
begin in the Army it
began and it
ends it's God's
Will and and you know it's for Western
thinkers like ourselves whether Yesa
educated the college educated or you
know we you
know it's not just Western thinkers but
it's so hard to change the way we think
about something everything must make
sense and if it doesn't make
sense it's not normal and therefore I
should stay away from
it that's the radical 180 degree
paradigm shift that a ye needs to make
in their mind you see and and when you
do that you'll be happier at the end of
the day you'll be happier because you're
going on the shoulders of the TAA and
a you know and and the same is now with
the water I don't want to get get
political and I want to go into it we
have to learn Tanya but there could
there are arguments there are arguments
to be made like why send in young kids
fathers with with families and and
children and and and and already over 40
have been killed why even risk one life
for these animals to you know and the
the answer is one of the an is we have
hostages and we want to get the hostages
okay so those are arguments those are
arguments some say is it worth it is it
not worth
it so what's the answer the answer is
there
a and we look to Hashem and we look
to we look to to to give us an
answer and and and we and we
believe that this is what Hashem wants
you won't get anything better see some
sometimes we think we'll go to the
professional and we'll get something
better and there's a time to go to a
psychiatrist and a psychologist and a
social worker and a rabbi and a doctor
absolutely the our was the first one to
say you know on certain
issues not go to a friend who's an
expert
plural medical
advice at least two doctors if not three
doctors on serious issues ETC business
advice the same thing so the rebba was
the the was an individual who supported
seeking counsel okay but at the end of
the day it's because the T gives a
physician the
r and a physician who doesn't believe
that don't go to him cuz that physician
is on his own clock and it's a big
risk and that said the same thing about
the government in years ago all the
years who are they listening to the
politicians or the or the war
strategists the the the the people who
are around the front and they're telling
you that hey this is dangerous and we
must deal with it not not what
Washington says and not not what the the
the cabinet says the ceset no no those
people on the front if they say we have
to go into sh Shiva hospital because
that's the root of the command center
and everything else that's what you have
to
do because when it comes to Warfare you
have to listen to the experts in Warfare
not to some person who who was a knesset
member and all that yeah so if he's
getting his information from the experts
the is fine but if he if if there any
politics involved and that sways a
government that that's and that then
it's a big problem it's it's basically
you're on your own I remember the faans
after many of the Israeli Wars and the
skirmishes the re's point
was if you walk around saying my great
Army did it Hashem says in the T that's
antithetical to what I
want it's the that he gave and he he was
massak you and he gave you a to to to be
part of it and to be
successful understandably you have to be
prepared and you have to train and you
have no question about it that's the
K but never lose sight of the the core
issue and that's what the AL says
here y only if it's not
politics
okay not politics um the the the one of
the things I mean I don't he doesn't
touch on this but this is just my
understanding the the the Jews are
governed by by by not by feelings
meaning the M with the w I feel this and
I feel that it's all emotions like I
feel like I want to eat whatever I want
to eat I want to CH change my g whatever
it is but we we're governed by
a
it's
not you can't say okay I'm G to feel
something and do something you have to
know it in order to feel it there's no
such thing I I I feel like I'm GNA do
anything you know you have a boss
someone goes into the job if he doesn't
do the job he can feel whatever he wants
but he has to use his because the boss
will fire okay and
therefore what what I'm saying is is
that that what I'm saying is is that
from what I understand understand from
this is is how this is this we asked a
question yesterday what does hasem what
does hasem want from us what what what's
the point hasm created the world
everything it's the follow the T right
but that not but but y that's even
greater than SE what I'm saying today is
that even if you use SE there are
counterarguments to se you're you're
equating SE to to and what I'm what I'm
sharing with you is that se is even
greater than t mean say it transcends to
because just like feelings can bring to
woke and do whatever you want can do the
same and the proof is the Nazis Yak they
rationalize these German Yak Nazis why
they should destroy Gypsies and the Jews
they were Vermin were Vermin were a
disease they literally believed all
these n SE
SE so is not the end
all is a method and a means to implement
the so
therefore says you need to look into the
words so it ascended in God's will it
doesn't
say then you would be right no this is
much deeper than SE this is God that's
what I'm telling you even the arguments
if there are arguments and there are
arguments to justify this and justify
this and all that it's all your SE so
you can't say that se is the governing
fact what you mean I think what you mean
is that you mean t you may basically
mean what the AL is saying here what's
going to say soon about to so let's get
now to the part where he talks about to
look at page me six lines from the top
after the period
was
Israel in order for us to do what we
have to on Earth God gave us gave us
[Music]
to is called might and
power gives power
toik receive their reward in the future
comes so that even though it's the time
of Messiah and there's a great
Revelation they will not become not
but in the light of
God that will be revealed in the
future without any garment so what's the
what is the AL saying
here we're talking about doing hashem's
will and Hashem wants the physical world
that's what he wants to make a home for
him D here
well when this will be realized when
Messiah will come it will be so powerful
how will we be able to withstand it
because normally the sun if it doesn't
have a shield a
cover then we burn up in the ball of the
Sun so the sun needs to have a shield a
cover so too seemingly when Messiah will
come it'll be such a powerful Revelation
how will we exist and the answer is
through t t the world of TAA the
learning of TAA is the way a Jew can be
in their physical being and remain safe
and sound right even though there is a
great Revelation and the AL brings now
three to support
this as it
says it says and we say it I think in
one of
the that there will no longer be a cover
up upon your
instructors in the act in the brackets
it
says
will not cover himself up hide himself
in a garment in a in in
a that's number
one I'm teaching now please stop
talking p number
two and your eyes shall see your
teachers well the difference between see
we see each other
now is different than listening um is
said today's camera is not working he's
hearing it's very nice but he's still
not seeing so there's a an advantage to
seeing and the third verse the AL
brings to will
see the the sun will no longer be to the
light of the
day because God will be this is
comes so the Reb's father asks why does
the AL have to use three different three
different verses to support his point
that when Mia will come there'll be open
Godly Revelation why three all pointing
to the same point and the's father
answers because we know
there we already learned that earlier in
Tanya
three contaminated negative energies
corresponding to each
one brings a that those three
contaminated energies will dissipate
will will will will be obliterated when
Mah comes so each of theim Al alludes to
another removal of the kpo when mashia
comes
that the days of Messiah and
especially when there'll be the
resurrection of the
dead it's the ultimate purpose right we
asked yesterday Yi the question that you
mentioned earlier why did God create the
world and the answer is so that we
should experience the ultimate purpose
of
creation which
is there first the resurrection of the
dead and then there is the coming of the
M the Jewish Messiah the
Mah now the these three
words Mia and this is very important is
not an adjunct to
Judaism
the you know why God initially created
the
world from the beginning for the purpose
of mhia so if we say and argue no no no
the world was created to overcome the
struggles and learn
T and as a reward one day very soon
mashia will come bat here in chapter
36 disagrees with that and he has and he
has support in Kaz and Al Caba for sure
that the initial creation of the
universe of the physical world was for
mashiah for us to experience Messiah
nothing
less and if you understand this and you
identify this idea you can understand
the Reb's call which
wasn't
just similar to the 13 ANS right the
when when the rebba came out in the
1980s really you know pushing the idea
of talking about msia and learning about
mssiah and all that there was big
backlash in the from World what was the
backlash uh you're around from 1902
we're around for thousands of years
including you right
Jews and we say and we know there are 13
principles and one of
them so Columbus was wasn't born
yesterday I know he thought it in 1492
there was a Columbus but guess what
there's a world before Columbus so there
was a world before you and the world
before you knew about Masia too we died
in the camps singing on Imam going into
the guest
Chambers and the Spanish Inquisition so
what did you and the and the answer is
this piece of Tanya
here
of course the knew all that and the I
was at myself with my with everyone
singing and begging for Mas
singing I grew up singing that song it's
not
aish so two things one is it's like it's
like Ari your son comes home from Yesa
you pay to and you ask him so y whatever
your son say what did you learn to today
Tai says ABA I learned about one ax
gring another
ax right Basics right basic basic gor
that you start learning in fifth and
sixth grade like y did in
Yeshiva so he so Ari says to his son for
that I sent you to Yeshiva and paying
good tuition to learn about one Ox going
I don't see in b sheemish or in burrow
Park any oxen I be see a police horse
taking care of the situation once in a y
they send out a police horse they have a
stable with horses right around Ocean
Park where like a five minutes for here
but you never see him I know I know in
May Shula there's many times I almost
got hit with a battalion I came I
arrived and I was walking Gula and there
was a demonstration with the and all
that and the police were whacking they
were on the horses and they were just
swinging their B and and M almost hit me
and I would have been I don't know if I
would be here today to give the
shear but here we don't have horses so
you ask your kid what's the purpose so
what's the answer what's the answer that
to is to and if you believe in the to
it's not about a horse it's not about an
ax it's about God and the to just
because today we don't have ax and
walking around the street and Goring
each other we have be we have human
beings Goring each other other bigger
behas right but nevertheless this is TAA
you learn TAA you you identify with a
certain way of learning a certain way of
thinking and that's why you send your
kid to
Yesa not because the kid will know
another page of or another page of you
send them to be a a and that's why it
there were people who didn't come from
backgrounds backgrounds both in Europe
and America in k for example right there
was only
one in the
1940s and most of the 50s it was called
the laich Yesa and betfred and bet sson
between Williamsburg and
crits and
many and others sented there there was
a but it wasn't
officially
right so parents who came from Hungary
and came from Europe and wanted a
background they had only one choice in
all of New York of all of New York it
was
called
that started the day after he came
1940 March 1940 I
believe and that became until sat re
Yesa at the end of the 40s 50s and the B
reab made the Yesa and all that right
but before that there was a but what's
the
point and the rash who set up the Yesa
writes in the and we should learn it one
day M we will learn it he says the
purpose of this
is how to be a God-fearing Jew it's not
about how much information you have so
why am I saying all this because
the the's call for Mia and the's desire
that choose immers himself in the
learning of Messiah and and and
information is not
because we didn't know it before but to
understand that without this as the
objective we're missing the
boat and that guess what many people
disagreed with and still disagree with
which is fine everyone could
disagree but the balat that followed in
his great great grandfather's way that
the AL says here h
page the world would have never been
created by Hashem oh God
Almighty
5,784 years ago if not for messiah for
the purpose of mhia but why why isn't
overcoming challenges enough why isn't
basking in the ray ofik enough and all
that the answer is it's all gravy um the
stake the stake itself is
Messiah and and it's this Consciousness
that the taught and spoke and and and
hoped that the Jewish people one second
here the Jewish people will understand
and I think there's a much greater
understanding in many in
many um communities
that this is the only answer yes
H
[Music]
question
[Music]
says is it we talk connects that toia
yes Masia that the wind was the Masia
right okay you know but but you know
from
aashi you know what I'm saying it's it's
buried in a
Rashi that never brought it to the table
and and and he said it's K you
know in in every aspect of life so so so
don't Misha you know mentioned the other
day with the issue with learning and
don't be satisfied with with small
change there's something there's
something much more that's that we need
that we need here that that that we're
going for we're we're not going for a
small change now sure you begin with
steps and steps
but the ultimate is G and was from
that's what that's that's that's the ver
that I'm focusing on I heard this from
the that the here because really these
three
words are are are are unnecessary it's
like repetitious and the answer is not
repetitious thees is that that was part
of creation there would never be
creation if not for the objective of
G have a great day and today um have a
mind my granddaughter is having a
procedure her name is um
G
shasa
have be good have again everyone should
have everyone should stay safe to
mention just before you go I want to
mention that you mentioned
I happen to see see on a a list of
podcasts that there's a podcast um uh of
a lot of his teachings um uh I saw it on
a platform called
podbean so for those of us who haven't
heard him speak uh it's there I haven't
I haven't looked into it but I just saw
okay okay and uh when you need help with
his yish let me know I'll try to help
