we're on page um
page 136.
so we learned in yesterday's year
about the kisei the chair that the issue
namaste mentioned should be made for the
holy person that passes by and was
setting up a room for him
so we spoke about the chair the third of
the four or four items that the
zayarakadi says
are relevant and important to make a
tickle to be to be with taking the
shrine that's in ghost
and the representation refers to shema
literally without siddhis
you could also understand it because
when you when you say shema is supposed
to be sitting kissing
but siddhis and as the rebbe here
calls from his ancestors
and puts it into
his language
says that this refers to this refers to
making a kaley making a vessel
so that the nepheshabamis
should relate ultimately to what the
nephew shall accuse his teaching it
and the way to do it is through the
intermediary which is called the nephesh
in his language the secretary the human
intelligence soul the human intelligence
human intelligence which there there is
where free will is as i elaborated upon
yesterday so through that
you you make it possible
for the animal for the for the for the
indulgence to calm itself and tame
itself
that ebber uh said that this is also the
meaning of
means not just to listen but to gather
you need to gather together
your your your your faculties
you see when we dive in in the morning
whatever we dive
especially in the morning
our faculties are all over the place why
we just got up and we're going to work
so you don't know are you are you do you
have your pants on do you have your
pants off you know you you're the gun
some five amish
and then you go to school and someone
dives fast and someone dives slow this
morning um one person wanted the door
open and the other guy's banging the
door and the guys inside are going crazy
you let the cold air in it's 19 degrees
outside so therefore the door has to be
locked and i'm sitting right next to the
door and i like air what do we do we got
chaos
brother hashem we have a good a good
group of guys at the at the basic minion
so uh we usually stay together but the
point is there is like michigan chaos so
there's a there's a there's an
aftershock bomb it says no officially
says i don't care i want to just be
under my talos and i want to focus on
halal me alone with all this stuff later
in the day i can have time for
to be nervous and anxious and and
worried and make money and lose money
and and hear about this issue and all of
that i have plenty of time during the
day but give me this one half hour of
peace
you know rashi says
with joseph
um
yaakov
yaakov wanted to sit finally in peace
i've told you you know yaakov
yanko yanko yaakov yanko wants to sit
quiet unassuming leave me alone let me
just live
hashem says
no way yankale if you came to this world
this is not a world of peace this is a
world of chaos you have to turn the
chaos into the peace so rashi says krift
say all kafsa all of right
hashem throws the wrath of joseph onto
yaakov to make him move get off your
loins
that ebb always repeated yelling at
govalda kazakh about his defeat the
cabbage
tomorrow's the yard side tonight
tomorrow so we might as well say in the
story
and a story of earth he said my
father-in-law my schwere
was always about
you hear that
he always wasn't dead
you know we always want to be settled
have money in the bank and be peaceful
and they never said my and my
father-in-law saw that as a virtue as a
milo
not as a sorrow not as a deficiency why
not
because if you have a debt
you got to get up and and raise the
money to clear the debt
if you have the money in the bank and
everything is going smooth and dandy no
you you're not compelled to to act
so when you're compelled to act and to
move around to to pay off your debts
meanwhile
how does that ever suggest paying off
our debts we're making greater debts
because
the debts are for the purpose of tata
so this uh this is this for this
barbecue in crown heights who who um you
know didn't have much
and he goes to the ramp and he says i
have an opportunity to buy a building i
think in manhattan on the b street over
there in the lower east side
and he shows that a small house or
building and that ever says why why why
why small why not big
well the same person today owns
the buildings on ebbets field in
brooklyn in crown heights on bedford
avenue where the brooklyn dodgers used
to play before they moved to los angeles
so if you think next time you're in
crown heights
you pass by you'll see large buildings
built mama's like 30 40 right
well a a a yiddle uh lubavitcher owns
those buildings border hashem and that
came because the rabbit told him when he
said i have a little money and i have an
opportunity to buy a little and ever
said no no no why why not big so he went
and
spent found another building that was
bigger and he bought it and today
he's a very wealthy man and about zadoka
in other words what was it ever telling
him
you want to satisfy you want to be
satisfied with something little because
you can afford that i'm telling you to
buy something big you can't afford right
now but
hashem will help you
now
i'm not saying that
told everyone to go into debt to buy a
house or buy a building i didn't say
that
but
he you know
for example to my father
and to others my father told me that you
know he had this response from the river
the river told him to buy a two-family
house
so they could have a an apartment a a a
a hal a
house an apartment for himself and then
have an income from the second unit
and and that was a shita of that
in the 1960s for people like my father
who were
you know this was the babbage and it's
it's growth you know and they were
building a family and it was it was a
whole you know they weren't from the
babbage background they weren't russians
my father was a romanian this one was a
polish this one's hungarian they're
coming into khabad
and uh and not just not but not only
them even the real carbonics they're the
ones from from russia that ever had this
thing of buying a two-family house in in
brooklyn we have two family houses
because he wants you to have an income
so he gave you an intelligent way
of being able to make the you know
the point but but going back to our
point
that the idea of of the struggle
and this is really what it says in
chapter 27 and tanya
the struggle should be embraced
don't reject struggle hug it
embrace it because it's for our benefit
as it says
love criticism
for it puts you on a higher and special
plateau
look forward to someone who's genuine to
criticize you
to criticize
because he's doing it for your benefits
so you'll grow
so why am i saying all this because when
we say shima
when we say shima
we're sitting down we're now able to sit
and think with our talos over ahead our
eyes covered or just quiet
and at that time
we
reflect on
shema
again from the meaning
gather that's what i was telling
doesn't only mean listen means gather
yourself together
get gather the disparate parts
in your being and bring them together
israel you is yasir yasser kale k refers
to the middle of the never shallow kiss
in this mimer that's the way he explains
it
and you have to make it yashar now he's
going to the word yashar with a shin
yashar with a shin means proper right
one
you have to make for multiplicity
oneness unity
and this is a job this is an aveda
we all know
one of the biggest mitzvahs that we say
in indonesia
when you bring peace between husband and
wife
you're guaranteed a box seat and gun
aiden
and those that have a talent in that
area
should should really
do it because
you mamish
will keep yiddish families together
and here i want to
you know for a moment divert and say
because you know my urim are heard by
many people who are not you know in the
class but online so
it's important to share messages for the
larger jewish world
and that is
that
it's better to be in a marriage
that maybe according to you or your wife
isn't rosie and dozy
then
give giving i'm making a general
statement so don't you know given
that there's no abuse
on and on and on
then
breaking it up
i've seen and you probably imagine
you've seen
people break up many times and they're
so miserable and they end their life in
misery and loneliness
okay your marriage wasn't
the greatest
right
i
that that that's a fact i'm not going to
dispute that dispute that that could be
the case
but first of all if you're a believer
and and especially if you got a broker
from
or even if you didn't you believe that
god sanctified your marriage through the
rabbi officiating and making a barakah
with hashem's name that's from heaven
you understand who says you're going to
be happier on the other side it's it's
it's it's it's not necessarily true
could it be of course it could be and
and this and the arizona by the way
already talks about that second
marriages second souls but i don't want
to discuss that now it's a very delicate
subject and i'm not prepared to talk
about it
but
the idea
that it's greener
the grass is greener on the other side
it is not greener on the other side
okay
yeah so sometimes
the macholicus the screaming and the
arguing and everything else dissipates
but that comes with a price
that ebb is shita you know if we've just
listened to the rabbit followed the
laboratory
and he spoke and i i i documented my
book rebbe's advice and every type of
issue you want to
ask and think about he had some advice
from schizophrenia
to pictures
to um to intimacy
to having children to investing in
stocks versus real estate
it's all there i'm telling you because i
translated the letters i know it's all
there
so what's the episode advice that ever
told people
who didn't have a harmonious marriage
wait till you chill for your children to
grow up before you
you divorce
and i know
people
who did that i
i know that
not that they ever told them to to
divorce but if they with their free will
came to this determination
that ever respects that
i know a case i was involved in this
case
someone whose wife
as someone who he and his wife were
having a lot of discord
and his wife wanted to teach him a
lesson so she decided not to go to the
mikveh
so he comes to me he says i can't
anymore i have to i have to you know
it's not this this is evil
rabbi do you give me the go-ahead
divorce i say i i was a much younger
rabbi at the time
this is 30 35 years ago i said i'm not
prepared to give you a green light
so
do what you you know what should i tell
you write to the river so he listened
the lucky thing is he listened to me he
wrote to the rebel
and within hours the rebbe answered the
rebels said
quote say
great how great shalom bias is
how great keeping a marriage together is
and i will mention you at my
father-in-law's gravesite the o hill
which basically means the rabbi said to
him stay put
the next miracle is he listens to the
rapper
and today he's happily married with
grandchildren
yeah yeah she didn't go to the midfield
because she was getting back at you but
you were doing some jerky stuff to her
that really upset her she didn't want to
go to the mix before you
it's a two-way street
and that eva could have easily said yeah
it's it's three six months you know i
said what knows what i told him i didn't
tell you i told him let's give it
another three months so three months and
three months and six months and it's
still the same situation he says rabbi
now grant me give me you know let me you
know you bless you bless me to get
divorced
so you know so there's no there's no in
a way there's no rules in a way there is
rules you know
my point is we're learning here
about
the take making oh
take one second
making of multiplicity oneness the
greatest thing is to bring people
together
in business
disputes
in
teenagers with their parents
adults with their parents
if a person has the ability to sit down
with people this is such a great mitzvah
they tell a story i don't know the
details i don't there are details where
once the the ribbon and this and the
rabbits and disappeared no one knew when
they found them on eastern parkway
blocks away this is probably the 50s and
60s 50s and they were in someone's house
they heard that there was discord
and it was online i think my and
the rabbit the rebecca went themselves
there to try to bring showing between
people
yes moisha
river dolphins quick question for you um
based on what you've been sharing
in your opinion
do you feel that
most marriages not all
but most marriages
can be
uh
not just saved but turned around
for the good
if both
husband and wife
are willing to roll up their sleeves
and really really do the work
to
to improve
i that that for sure i believe
i i'm even saying more even if they if
either
doesn't want to roll up their sleeves
as a general statement
it's better to stay together than to
break up
again
if there's abuse
if there's you know screaming and
hollering and and hitting and and and
total nuts you know
it's another
right right but but in other words if
it's just kind of uh between it's never
just you know it always impacts the kids
but you know that there is no
the normal disagreements and discord and
then there is cocoa ones you know
you know i i just want to tell you i i
think i've told you you know
in holocaust homes you know post
holocaust homes
there's a lot a lot of tension you know
i don't think any of you are from those
homes
and there's a lot of stress you know
today it's less because you know we're
up towards the end of the that era
but this was this was common and and the
pressures and and and the and the scars
you know
it it it it
made you know like in communities like
ours here boro parks williamsburg
you know even flatbush you know
it was um
a very big reality you know
and what i heard from
from my grandmother who was a polish
woman and a survivor
you know
like
she was always i think it's she would
quote it i think from the gemara i'm not
sure if it's the gemara but it's
somewhere
you know
if you would say if the word divorce is
mentioned of this house god rises from
his chair
and you know she and she said it with a
way of like scaring you know
scaring everyone don't you ever mention
but meanwhile this bickering and there's
this and there's that
that's normal
those oh you understand that
that generation
and and culture
it was a whole different way of looking
at things now
in america they're just royal today in
today's free world and
it's not it's not that way but
you know i'm an american but i i'm very
much european because my influence on my
parents and grandparents and my culture
i see
in many americas
that didn't grow up with the european
uh culture impact
there is this you know
kind of you know
formal
attitude like if it doesn't work we'll
go on we'll find someone else we won't
there isn't
the it's like not in your blood like you
know the way i was raised and my friends
and my culture is like
it's in your blood you marry that's it
for good bad of the ugly that's it
it's from heaven you have to go through
what you have to go through avraham
avraham are you following this are you
are you familiar at all with with what
i'm saying uh um is this uh a new uh new
thinking for you new ideas no i've been
married to 33 years with my daughter
beautiful no no i understand but but i
know but i've been i've been through
these different phases of relationships
right right but but when i was in it
yeah and work you know yeah what what
i'm saying is so so
it just hit me when the rebber speaks in
this mimer about making of multiplicity
of two right he speaks about um uh
making uh yashar israel is your
yashar kale
making things that are disparate and
separate making it yashar making it
proper and one so this just fell into
you know the importance of
of shalom bayes of bringing people
together
i know you know moshe you know you
you're you're not being in shul and you
know you know you you're exposed to all
kinds of things i'm just saying that
you know
whether it's you or someone else who has
a
talent in this area it's it's a
tremendous horse
and it's hard work and it's like again i
gotta you know it
but that's right
people have all their life till 120
they they if they if they had us
a talent and bringing people together
they did it
and it took away time for their family
took away time for their job and and
there was a headache and and
but you can't imagine the great
host of doing such a thing so in the
mimer you're innocent the mimer
that ever talks about it
you know
bringing from making two to one i i was
recently in florida by my son
and two sisters
had a yard sight for their mother i had
a slation i think for their mother or it
was the first year i forget they and
they gave after myra mildweek they gave
us a sudah
and the rabbi the khabad rabbi you know
mentions all the mentioned that
and then one of the sisters starts
speaking and it was it was you know it
was all
we didn't know them she didn't know us
she says
for years
my sister and i
didn't speak and the sister standing
there
we didn't get along
and it was and it ate up my mother
she
and her mother
died
not knowing
that the death brought them together
they were standing together and they
made up to live in peace
now i'm asking you
you know
i was thinking about it sitting there
it's wonderful on one hand the other
hand is very sad
you need death
death should
death should bring you together
why
why couldn't you make her before so your
mother could witness
as she's dying
her two sisters her two daughters
together or maybe maybe i'd say maybe
she saw them the last few weeks or
months together but the point is most of
the life
she was she was so upset that her two
daughters don't get along don't talk to
each other
so
it's it's important to to know this
and especially when it comes to wills
and estates and parents leaving over uh
yerushas and the fights and it's
well i can tell you my friends when you
make your will
make it clear
and and do it in a way where everyone
knows ahead of time what you're doing
and you call the shots
don't leave it up to your kids that's
what i can tell you because
the best of the best
have different ways of doing things and
understanding and one's upset and was
not upset
but if you pre you know set the rules
and it's in writing
that's it
it's like um
why she and i spoke about the uh
what's the rabbi the the son of the
rabbi uh your rabbi
his son is married to the family of the
rebel
saudi guard
the fact
that the
previous rebbe of sadikor
left clear instruction that he wants his
youngest son to be a rabbit
dispute it or not like it or not
that's what he said now
now it's up to the people too and to
listen not to listen
but he made himself clear
he made himself clear so now everyone
has to be honest themselves and say do i
want to listen to my rebbe who i was his
cousin
hey see this this this is where it
becomes very tricky
do i listen or do i say rebbe you made a
mistake
you miscalculated then you thought your
younger son is the one that should be
because maybe he's less political maybe
he has the future ahead of him whatever
whatever these are these are issues to
making from
from multiplicity
is the greatest thing let's learn some
cities inside because
we can keep on for bringing here we have
to learn some citizens inside page 136
fahine now he goes to the fourth
item that she made
minera she made a candelabra for him
says that ever in the name of the
zayatesh
the standing prayer the amidah that's
why it's called amidal to stand
the krishna slice of the yoshi of
krishna is called the prayer of sinning
prayer
meditation reflection of godliness
in a comprehensible way which is known
as beena
this is the idea of shema
now here he translates mod
with mind with analysis with
comprehension
and here he quotes the verse da bear
speak
kisho maya of
for your servant understands listens in
the sense of understanding so go ahead
speak i understand what you're talking
about
[Music]
the comprehension of god's exaltedness
in the of the infinite god
five days above his spirals alive
and because one understands the
godliness that one reflects upon
[Applause]
all
emotionalism is exciting excitability
mortgage like jonas said the other day
when you're using your cycle to
understand godliness it's not just
saying words
well when you say abram in the morning
you have to stop and think not just the
translation of the words
but the ideas that we've been learning
here
the meditation
the reflection and understanding
subservient is is is is humble is
totally annulled
here mush is not the place monastery
to be
in the reflection mood in the meditative
mood here is to be in the expert
experiential mode
mode sorry mode in the experiential mode
you're innocent
of
allowing yourself to be uplifted through
prayer for whatever you're doing for
this monastery
as it says
and after the man
i'm sorry
and after the fire there was a silent
silent sound the age he next page 137
urdish bay
ace refers to
a burning desired
your heart's on fire you're storming i
want god
god is so delicious i understand him i
love him i want him
you're all all worked up
by dying
very nice
but because you're in a sitting position
and in a sitting mindset
that means that your metsyout
your being in existence
is still associated with yeshua's of ego
it's a very refined ego
a humbled ego but it's still ego there's
still an eye
who wants you hear that there's an eye
that wants god
that's why
you're all emotion charged up and and
noisy
you see
when are you noisy and charged up when
it's not you
right
when we breathe in the morning do we get
all excited dancing and laughing and no
it's natural because that's who we are
breathing
but imagine
[Music]
if you can't got to breathe well then
you put on a breathing machine and
things like that
boy are you excited and i can tell you
that from
you know from from people who've had you
know sleep apnea and things like that
and they need oxygen and in
other words it's not natural for them to
have that and then yet they have it they
get all excited and worked up and they
see that it's the best thing since the
creation of of of uh mayonnaise and um
and wonder bread right
so
the volume
is words i love these words
if one's
entire existence my which there
because say yes
his ego
would be
miss battle would be nullified
like how you manage
he wouldn't make noise
oh come
take a log of fire that's burnt through
fire in a closed martial arts like this
as long as the the fire hasn't burned
through and through the log
it's bustling and making noise from the
fire that's that's going into every part
of the of the log
advocation is of course just aids but
when the the physical material log has
been totally consumed and burnt us in a
modest cloud
but if you put your finger in you get
burnt
and if you stick in you know you'll see
a spark come out
and you know when the primary heat
of the log is not when it's still
catching on fire and crick and crackling
and making noise but rather after it's
consumed and from the outside it looks
like there's no fire there you touch it
you're really going to burn yourself
how do you like that muscle i love it
[Applause]
yes you still have some ego there
foreign
and passionate way
but but so it's not you
so the the yes still exists
because that represents my one second
that represents complete unknown on a
nullification of self yes my
you know previous learning didn't we um
discuss that krishma
is connected or representative of um
there's an element of like touhou
and schwann
is that does that ring about
my
i feel like i feel like we we touched on
this um
okay
all right i don't want to take this off
if
no no i i i
anyway if if you could find that you
know send me a
no a message i'll look into it
okay we'll stop him tomorrow we're going
to have a fabric for you
and you want to make sure to light a
candle tonight
learning
speak to your family about the freedom
and what he did there's many secrets
many videos many clips
and they should help jab mashiach right
away did i should be back with us
and uh we'll have everyone wanna mind at
the oh hell let me just share them if
you have a special request or any
request you could what's up me and
berlinette when i get to the oil we'll
have it in mind
have a good day
