Maamar Kol #5 - The Echad of Shema is Guarantee to Living Long - Daven w Minyan

okay good morning we're starting now this year we're on page 206 in the last paragraph in the in the last paragraph in the last paragraph no wait wait wait wait wait wait wait no no hold on i'm sorry 205. they'll call my record so the last in this paragraph that is now starting to sum up the answers to the questions that he asked in the beginning beginning on the uh ghazal of colombia that one has to spend time not only emphasizing and elaborating lengthening the word effort but the concept of a hood hi nisha behold embroidery in every matter that a person sees yosemite he should make his heart be attentive to hashem's hashem's unity so of course if you if you spend time doing this that everything everything that you do you're going to focus on the actors on the unity of hashem it's going to take you quite a while it's definitely going to be what we call arrijus b it matters that one sees with himself with divine providence by nigeria last week to himself one sees how hashem provides for him and how hashem protects him so thinking about that spending time and thought about that as we say hashem will take time it will be barricus so to kane who asked we are one sheep among 70 wolves the mistah and this one sheep is guided as protected and if you think about it especially all of you and that it's just all you know how real this is okay my mid as the saying the sages would say this on facebook not only does is there one enemy who stands against uh but it's many in every generation there's an enemy and nevertheless saves us from their hands so you think about this is very real sorry hashem therefore this should lead a person to strengthen themselves in service of god between but david with a minion well the creators eat them with us setting aside of the lengthening need to be on the f of the word of the shema not just the word i'm sorry the dollar refers to the four sides of the world east west south and north chicago every person must know that the place that i live in and my environment that causes it spurs the the involvement sure right and arguing the following medina zoo in this medina this country after the time tournament says it's possible next page 206 but in another medina and another country efsa but somewhere else where there is no freedom it is impossible god forbid to say so he makes if it i scattered you you the jewish people in the four corners of the world all over us just as it's impossible for the universe to be uh exist without the four sides the four corners of the earth without the winds there needs to be winds the absolutely used after all the world the non-jewish world cannot exist without israel without jews from hashem that man's steps are specified m so therefore the fact that you find yourself in timbuktu or the fact that you find yourself in a country that doesn't allow learning and david and all that it makes no difference that you are a yidd and you have an obligation to god and you need to find a way to do it and as we saw with our brothers and sisters in russia during the hard time that they managed to do this and those that stayed and and fought stalin and they did it in the underground yes they could they didn't do it openly because that would be uh you know a death sentence but they did it on the ground unfortunately some or many were also caught and sent away never came back but the fact is that they let an underground of taylor misfits the zelda is the echo where should you put the emphasis of the arichos of the lengthening in dallas you have to lengthen it and say to yourself that in every country east west south north makes no difference wherever the country is wherever i am over there i'm going to ex find god and unite hashem with whatever i'm doing okay so this is the devil's explanation why the artichokes is on the dollar that was one of the questions so this is an answer to the question okay because it's it's in the dollar where we find a struggle it's in the ballot where sometimes we justify we can't do it so that ever says specifically in the ballot you have to meditate on your personalized practice so it goes back to the khazal the sages learned which means not only here it means realize in their yiddish their health it doesn't mean just hurt hercules listen dead heart means it goes through your bones it's in your it's in your dna you got it you realize you recognize you feel what do you feel the hashem right the locator we learned earlier comes to the word our power and vitality is from shame hashem it's from the name youth k wolfgang which is above nature it was a shame of the king nature is through shame of the king and when we say hashem allah was saying that our kayak our nature itself is the supernatural the of says here this realization comes from the stand the show means from the understanding of the soul meaning like i said yesterday even if you're goof if your body doesn't understand that your body is tired your body is sleepy or your body is uninterested or your body opposes these ideas then the show my first state the soul is pure even the soul of someone who is a sinner the soul of someone who is not interested etc etc even that person's soul understands hashem and it's that it's that aspect of the jew of the eid that we need to tap into hashem eloquenu that alokeno is really hashem hainu akhtos in simple words in hasidis it means we have to bring cause unity of god with the world so that every what is means in everything that you do in driving your car and walking on the street and going to the market and playing with your grandchildren and taking the teal and touring with people every in each place and every experience needs to somehow be ah you had and and and one second and if you didn't find it you need to explore more how is this particular issue that i'm doing in a moment i'm going to let you talk yani and this explains to us why there's no such a thing you see when you learn and you and you and and and you really learn it you you there's like no room for pleasure for wasted pleasure from or for unholy pleasure what do you mean i'm going to a concert what do you mean i'm going to a baseball game you're going to a concert fine how are you going to bring actors hashem and experience action of the concert you're going to a game how are you going to experience after the shame of the game so all of a sudden your entire you go to the concert you go to the baseball game and and you go to have a tu absolutely but your mindset is hashem so it's a whole different experience and then at some point if you feel that the hashem is being lost you go back home yes yay so as i see the the rebel likes to to uh keep hammering at the same you know the same ideas throughout like what we learned earlier in the week about the dalit in in right how we have to bring everything together the actus part like the dalit the words he keeps to he keeps from repeating this message that that it's all it's all about unity it keeps repeating this in this mimer it's a very very important uh yes i'm saying we need the khazar meaning it's something that he feels that we have to put an emphasis on on the repetition absolutely absolutely but again over here in this section he's emphasizing that it's valid within the effort so you before what you quoted before he made a general statement which is now he says within the word itself it's the dalit which you should think about wait a minute i'm now living in texas i'm living now in vienna so one is in the east one is in the west whatever you know whatever wherever so over there you have to find the actress so but the overall theme you correct is actus and and by the way this is this is if someone asks you what does khabad khasiddha's want of a jew what is the contribution of khabad to classical judaism the answer is the daily and and recognition of hashem and everything you do which of course is tita it's all of tida it's not it's inseparable but hasidis emphasizes this thing yes yes hillel yeah you wanted to say something i just was an illustration from a personal example of how i learned to employ this principle when i back when i lived in this state i was a uh i'd go a couple of times a year to a an nfl game i was kind of a fan and uh it would often the football season would often begin around the same time as a as a chuva season you know it's uh same time of year and often when we'd read the tokuka and um yes any anyway so it says over there that all these things will come upon you yes because you didn't uh you didn't learn these things with with joy and with good-hearted good hearts so um and i i learned from the terror from the arizona that says that you didn't show as much enthusiasm for your voters hashem this yeshua other thing so uh um so i'd go to the game and see how enthusiastic i'd get and i know that would be the the marker i had to surpass during the year even though where i am in order to uh oh but it's it's it's it's it's a consciousness you know it's a consciousness that you develop that you develop that that whatever i'm going to do i should look for actors hashem i should and and and as you go about it in a very different way it's not like i'm just going to to eat and to sleep and to enjoy no i'm going to experience god what what no you can ignore him because one of the schmidt's communities yes of course that's where yaakov was saying it's one of the six constant mitzvahs that we have every moment is hashem correct you're right but i'm saying there is a in in a paper there isn't a seiko and then there is it in hergish and regis in in in feeling that's a different avoider it's it so you know of course uh it's just it makes us tweet this but let's let's let's practice that okay let's continue i will call oh she says comes along with the way we explained it in the mimer is all about his burning this meditation this and that and the mayor says until the echo you need to have cabonas alev intent of the heart no it's kavanaugh which leads to ryohafter loving god with the heart so what does that may have mean outcome so he explains although it's true the uh the knowledge the idea and the sudden the comprehension that yudkev is united with with the world this is true as it must be begins the tanya with it that before the soul descends on earth we administer an oath hashem administers an oath to the soul be righteous to the seemingly how can god give us a a a an oath how can the god make the soul make an oath to be righteous if if it's about the body in this world so it's like you're talking to the wrong party and you're talking at the wrong time that's the question ella peters what's the explanation the words was associated with sovereignty that it should be able to overpower the body and the natural soul meaning the animal soul the yatsuhara lavare to refine it to make it a vessel to god so in other words the question is the of course the question is how can the goof on earth overcome the urges the answer is you have it within yourself how do i have it within myself because you have a soul and a soul is it was given a schwa meaning not it it not just took an oath it was satiated with an oath it has the tool it's like how can you fix a broken cabinet you need a screwdriver where's the screwdriver if i don't have a screwdriver you have the screwdriver it you have the mechanism just reveal it yes uh my understanding is that there's a connection between the word must be with lesson surveyor yes that's what he's saying okay beautiful yeah and then there's another there's there's there's it's a famous explanation that the word for has three meanings shivua oath so they are to seven soul powers are what god satiates the body with to be able to access on earth to overcome the urges so to use to say i don't i don't have it you do have it you were given that okay the um is a continuation of before says [Music] this idea late to show you should not only remain in the mind it needs to come into the heart amen to derive of it good character so it's not that here's the yakov not that mayor doesn't he doesn't mean to exclude kavanaugh he's saying that the purpose of capone is good middles and if you have if you meditate that you reflect something is wrong in your destiny this is not abstract philosophy for the sake of philosophy aristotle with all of his genius when he's caught in a in an uncompromising way in a shameful way and they asked him how could you do this you're aristotle he says at that moment i wasn't aristotle that's an example of someone who could meditate on israel and no middle slaves comes from it and this is an ongoing battle it's not you know all or nothing we we have this daily every day of our life and as the alternative says in the holy tanya the kagnazarto this is why we were created we were created for this struggle in battle so embrace it very powerful worlds words of the altered don't shun it don't become depressed to say i i've been working on this for years and years and years and this i'm still the same old guy guess what you're going to be the same old guy till the day that you return to the shrama and it's not about being the same old guy it's about the battle the struggle which way the heading in which what's your direction your direction is up you're good hashem doesn't expect and that's the whole theme of tanya being the bani sadiq it's a different it's a different realm a different discussion it's not our concern sadiq we need to be concerned about our struggles what the different ballgame exactly is so we're all different here everyone else has a different brain capacity every one of us has a different knowledge capacity every one of us has a different heart capacity but we all have capacities so we need to be mad more or less we need to be with business he has to set up sad times to learn even simple people can't learn on their own listen to people teaching twitter in public but don't tell me i don't know how to learn no excuse zelsh on my next page 207. and they make leniencies for themselves the tigers shall heaven with nourished kite nonsense arguments at giving excuses why they're not traveling with the minion while they're not learning and all that yet comes along he says hey you said you should be married on the dollar of the hood as long as you don't swallow the hess of the echoed so what's the spiritual significance of this idea says soul into his body is for the purpose of the sabbath to make a home for god on earth this refers to the seven heavens and the earth you have to make a in a boat for god all over this me the fact that the soul descends from the um from the seven heavens and it comes into the earth investing itself in a physical body in the either zoo this descent he beshville aliyah for the purpose of an ascent which will take place through man learning toyota the kia mitsubis borders of those gospels in this physical world and the verse says how it is a host to man to humanity to people upon earth and like the days of a hired employee worker are a person's days peter shirashi comes along and says just as this uh employer chinese i'm sorry just that this employee who was hired for a year the idea is and he knows the contract is going to end you're innocent you're here you have a you have a contract and then and then you know at the end the contract is going to end canaan get ready for some heavy words the three weeks person who must know law simply be deeply a person must pay attention should eat in those [Music] god created your days the whole ef person's days and his years are measured that's why it says get with it today don't procrastinate do it today a building collapses overnight and they don't have a chance the next day to put on film to learn to do mitzvah to get to dhaka to help that's the way it is say some don't don't push off even for a day later in the learning of trader to know what to do not just to learn to philosophize but to learn for the purpose of practice and implementation [Laughter] here in this world okay as holy and good we talk about down here now what we do here now is greater than everything later later as a reward we have oh you can't put on twilight and we're at citizens and get sadaka and go with someone in a nursing home and help a heat and make a phone call to someone and do it all that in habba only here that's why hashem sent our own on earth says all of this what i just said he says is included in the concept do not swallow the quest their men's zone is and when he will in involve himself in this idea with truthfully he knew the mainland dallas that will make him lengthen the dollars of the echoed and he explains so again what desire came i want to summarize what the the quest represent the seven heavens and the earth meaning the place you're at the place when you will realize that the plate i'm sorry i'm sorry no that that refers to the mission design the mission that god gave your soul on earth is represented by the hess when you will realize your mission so then the ballot you'll be able to be myrich you'll do it wherever you are if you don't have a mission then you find an excuse that wherever you are and it's not convenient to the way you had your year this guide before you're tight and all that you find an excuse to lay back to to to goof off that's what he says should dedicate himself and spend elaborate time in publicizing all over hine when we do that of god gives us a reward but the reward is not an adjunct to what we do it's what we do itself the revelation of what we do look at this i want to spend a moment this is a very important concept in chapter 37 in tanya it's called mitzvah because i'll say that the reward for a mix was a mitzvah yakov how do you learn but pasta is that gemura that if you do a mitzvah you'll get you'll get rewarded with an uh not doing another mitzvah having an opportunity in the midst says a deeper shot in that hazard the reward for doing a mitzvah is the mix itself what's the what does that mean now when i put on till in the morning i don't see the dalit and the four supernovan that illuminate the person when you put on film now when a woman likes shopping lights up the house it lights up the world we don't see the spiritual editor we believe about it we understand it we learn about it but you don't feel it it's har mitzvah mitzvah means the reward for doing the minute is that you will feel the mitzvah itself and it will you'll see what that mitzvah accomplishes the same is here the ques one second one said the question was what's the connection between being myrick and at and having long life that was the rapper's question the beginning of the moment the answer is because if you do the hess and the dalit and you're myra from the dalit in other words if you realize what your mission is and purpose in life is and you do it in every single place that you are then hashem says hey this fellow is doing what i want so therefore let me he should have more life longer more days more life because he crescendo so the i the reward of arikas yamin is not something additional to what he's doing it is what he's doing so i think this is a tremendous insight so they're ever saying that that that that what the gemara is saying there is a kesher odd look a very tight connection between the two i just want to finish the paragraph to impact the world with the dissemination of tata and the study of tata in his in saskatchewan to be involved in the in prayer is in order to marry to reveal the kavanaugh is having an abundance of good physical and spiritual who wanted to say something before today someone wanted to say that yes and then it seems like uh he's making a um a play or uh uh expanding the meaning of the phrase arihas yaman that rick has your man we'd normally think of it as as many days length of days how amount of days and he's saying uh that that the day itself would be longer it'd be fuller it'll be uh more opportunities for being married than the service of a chef yeah but i i i yes and no that's correct but not to exclude he says clearly that when you do this mission of the hess and then the dalit hashem will grant you many more days and many more years why because you're doing the mission so he's not ex it's not excluding he you're right he's he's looking at the spiritual notion of and he's saying so therefore since you you're involved in the spiritual notion of our best i'm going to give you more time to to do it because you're doing it so i want you god wants us to do more that's what he wants yes so just so what he's talking about the scarves as a mitzvah right so you get that that's the pleasure that's the benefit you're getting from the star mixture you're getting a mitzvah so but you only stop wait wait i want to make sure you understand the sky mitzvah is saying is the mitzvah itself you put on twill in the morning what you're doing because it says put on film do we feel something do we know what's accomplished so the answer is that if you put on the film the right way then the reward will be that you will feel that the very same mitzvah not another mitzvah not you'll be rewarded another mitzvah this mitzvot will become realized by you what it accomplished you get it right yes i'm saying so with that with that today yeah i i think i think the comparison or correlation between that and the fact of when you when you give you're getting more than what you get right within you're doing for others you're not really doing for uh you're you're really doing for yourself right the benefit like you're getting more of a benefit by giving to the person that needs whatever it is whatever it is yeah and the guy that's actually moving this yeah yeah yeah very good that's a good a good good example yeah very good you wanted to say something while you're driving or no okay no good thank you thank you but i do like those sunglasses anyway you want to say one thing i do want to say one thing i want to say one thing how is it i know i find that sometimes if i try to if i try to uh meditate be misboning and the kimonos that we've been speaking about sometimes i find i'm not able to get it i just i'm not able to recall them exactly and then i feel as if now i'm not thinking of anything and so i'm wondering is it better maybe if a person when they're when they're when they're dabbling and if they can't remember that is exactly what we're speaking about right then is it better for him just to say okay and all all um that's better when you go to the midfield it says supposed something called kavanagh when you go to the mikvah which i don't know where they are so you have a mind whatever the camera is under the water but when it comes to davening wait i said it comes to davening the first thing you need to do is you have to know this you have to understand and know the subject matter or the particular meditation very well and that's learning that's not meditation that's understanding if you understand it well then just focus on that one thought don't don't don't mix in 20 thoughts because then you'll get confused and if you do that you will see that it'll be beneficial that's what i'm saying so so for example um you take this you know earlier in the mind we spoke about hashem eloquenu that's a that's a meditation itself that we learned about hashem that's another meditation today we're learning about calamari the idea of the arrika's that's a third and fourth meditation you don't have to do them all one week you focus on one and again there's no when you feel that you really got it and the meditation is sinking in then you go on to another one that's the way hasidim did their davening and doing it that way you won't have confusion i i i could really say the confusion because you know i've gone through this experienced it the confusion is when we don't understand it well that's where the confusion begins and and and that is the first thing so with us what and i think also you don't have to worry about yeah but the use of the issue absolutely but that's of course if you don't have yeshua and you're bothered by this and you're worried about this you got to cover the bank and and and and employ you know all the issues yeah yeah 100 you're 100 right there so that a person before he goes into his david and he asked like i told you abu khan told me told us once that when a person davans he said that he used the word in yiddish as which means he says bye bye world have a nice day i'm leaving on a trip now so if y'all said that the period of davening is when you say i'm going into an island and i'm blocking out everything that's that itself takes willpower and and and for that even if it's one particular trilo one particular sentence the rabbi the rabbit told rabbi gaffney of zfas who had a balthrov yeshiva in krakow for many years and he darvened he prayed he learned hasidis and he prayed for a long time and it was interfering with his ability to come on time to his students and he asked the reb about it and the rebbe said to him you're obligated to your students daily you're also obligated to him like like a heat so what you should do is the what has all did and there's an expression what did hasidum do they made a knach every day in their sitter on the page means they bent they folded the cinder the page they said today i dive into this word but wait a minute you said the rest of the prayers anyway yeah but i didn't govern i said words governing i made a line a note until this word in this line so the rabbit told rabbi ghasni very important he told him that's what you need to do not that you shouldn't doubt me but you have to you're obligated to come at a certain time to teach your students and to be with them so you aren't able to spend more time in doubt and no problem you continue tomorrow and tomorrow you continue the next day every day you will make a fold and bend on which word you defined until and the same as with us over here to to to go into davening and these meditations all or nothing moisture your hands are right it's overwhelming and it's better enough better but you have very little of it you need to take one thought spend know well then meditate and reflect on it as you darken for quite a while till it seeps in and it becomes part of your dna hebrew have a great shabbos shabbos it's the only shabbos with him that the father himself is monogamous he consoles us so it's the epitome of of of of destruction brings the ultimate menachem of may we see the basal and together we'll be together monday we're starting a new mimer the next mimer same safer the next mimer have a good shabbos everyone bye bye thank you everybody
