okura page
131 in the nasa no alias
we're in the middle of talking about
what is the avoider of krishna abita
let's continue
uh
and and and that ebba
enumerated five different points to
think about
how your day should have been
and then to look at how the day was
and how
you wasted so much energy
and you caused your health to be
to be
you know
to be
not great because of the stress
to be compromised
so let's go now we're on one two three
four five six lines from the top of 131
after the parentheses in the yiddish
is that
regardless
uh in addition sorry in addition to
not losing your health
from the stress
you would be involved if you would have
been involved in albertans hashem and
you would be dealing with godly
interaction
and this is the main reason why the soul
came into the body
i
as i made earth
will be shrila adam it's because of man
and the reason why i created man is
because of borosi
which means shikayam tariyak mitzvos the
gamatri of the word barassi 6 13.
why did i make man
on earth
fulfill the 6 13 you were saying what
yeah that that's relevant for this
week's power show where we where hashem
says to moshe
yes
my friend
wrote a book
uh
it's called
part of the title is anoki
and he documents each and every time
it's an app where the word onoki is
mentioned that he explains
many relevant things to adafri
marazzao and as the saying had to say to
say
his name
in my separations
that hashem
made an agreement with creation in makab
muslim if the eden accepted a mother of
great
on page 131 about 11 lines from the top
the ultimate of creation who best feel
our tata is for the purpose of tata
okay
in actuality
when a person
reflects on this with depth of mind
and sees in
with in actuality
whatever he did be this will be that
it's a quote this is a player play on
words on the passage in tehillim that we
say in hallelujah
it is only the advice of god that is
eternal and everlasting
but everything else
is
a shot in the dark
zoysia therefore i say hess game a
person who realizes this makes
a heskem a resolution
and not just a resolution
strong resolution
within himself
within the his soul
the heckler
with abs in an absolute way
a second
that he will not return to his following
anymore
to be bothered and anxious and disturbed
with the many thoughts
of
trivial matter
rak
this is part of his
miata from here on
is kazakh
he strengthened himself the kabbalah
obama
accepting the yoko hashem la
to get up early all the hot effort to go
to sleep later at this level
and the rabbit heads with patience
not to rush your dominique
to hear what's coming out of his lips if
they are doing called before the master
of all
with set
times of learning real made
dna
to learn the laws of traitor
with malay there's a
so he one should know what to do how to
behave
bikini my mistress
by fulfilling first by fulfilling
firstly the mitzvous as the law dictates
and then begitor
not just to do it according to law but
to do it more than that with beautifying
the mitzvah called hitor mitzvah
right you can get a parrot filling you
know that's bare bones
or you can ask motion to write you a
beautiful
set of large filling and alter epic save
even though
many people some say that the nebba also
had
filling
of the arizona because in europe
many people that's the way they wrote in
other countries as well whatever the
case
truth is in russia
my show probably knows more about this
in russia many so from wrote the
alternative sound but they didn't maybe
know it was the alternative but they
didn't write it in the proper way and
that's why there's a lot of
controversy
about it but the point is
that that's in a more of it it's more of
an expense why because
of the average cipher doesn't know the
alternate south
so he has to
take apprenticeship and practice more
and learn more and all that
well therefore he charges more
so
that's the way it was in my time
when someone wanted the altitude
there was a sofa no if he's still alive
yerushalayim rabbi hennig
he wrote i think the first children's
safer torah he was the the the the sofer
and he wrote the altar
and he happened to have a beautiful
handwriting
so i remember the the talk in the around
chabad was how expensive it was and you
could have gotten you know a cypher for
half the price
but it wouldn't be so beautiful that's
called hiddle mitzvah
and the same is true with a lullaby and
an esrig and moxes and everything else
so we go into a store and buy a pound of
mozzarella 25 or 20 25
and we say this is highway robbery and
frankly it is highway robbery
but
that's their husband
that the producers have to answer and
they'll have an answer an excuse for you
shipping is more and baking is more and
the cost of per hour for employees more
it's true
but twenty five dollars an hour
anyway that's their street hashem
our husband is that i'm beautifying the
mitzvah if i have that that money
instead of buying baseball cards or
football cards if it's still
in today in my days we used to be into
football cards and baseball cards
and i guess those that have a mickey
mental card or today or a babe ruth carr
or joe dimaggio card
uh it's worth a lot of money on the
market
but be that as may
the point is that instead of spending
your money on a fine scotch that's 100
years old
i recall it brings back memories as i'm
talking
when i was in marin county
in a city called san anselmo
i don't know if you ever heard of it
a it's a city in marin county and it's
it's one of these cities that
part of it has this culture that brings
you back
like to um
to hate ashbury you know
to the hippie culture to the counter
culture
anyway
um i remember i i
heard about a jew
forget his name harry either frankfurter
or something
and and
who was the owner of a liquor store
so i went to see him
and to put till now with him and he was
a jew i think he might have been
actually from chicago he was a yidd
at the time he was living married to a
oriental woman
and he he was very far from yiddish kite
but he had this uh
this love and feeling for when i came in
he like embraced me any any any you know
he saw a jew with a beard
you know he had a beard too but you know
he was living a very unholy lifestyle of
many different ways
so he said as i said to him i hear that
you you know you have special clients
and customers he says yeah it takes me
over to some bottles of wine that were
thousands and thousands of dollars
because they were aged well and long and
and you know
and mamish and then i was there you know
in and out over the over the or so and i
saw different people coming in and
buying
expensive wine from him
what am i saying what i'm saying is you
can beautify
you can spend money on buying a bottle
of wine is 500 or take that 500 and make
sure you have
a mezuzah that cost a hundred dollars
each
so you get five measures for the cost of
one big one bottle of wine aged wine
so the shine is what you do with your
money
and i'm using i'm saying this and you
know maybe larger numbers the same is
true with smaller numbers
and a person even a person who hashem
has blessed them with money and funds
a yid a a a from jew a hasidic jew
learns this mimer he has to ask himself
what do i want to spend my money on how
do i want to beautify
what do i want my money to go towards
and even if i have lots of money i'll
put my money into beautifying mitzvahs
i'm sure there are an artists role but
here also i know people here in brooklyn
who god has blessed them you know with
lots of funds and you go to their house
it's not fixed up it's the way it was 40
50 years ago
the same old carpet and the same table
and no no frills and they're very very
wealthy people
and it's not because they're cheap
because i know them they're not cheap
just they spend their money on a rule of
an estimate that's two thousand dollars
or a mezuzah or twilight or a safety
they'll use their money that hashem has
blessed them to beautify mitsuo give to
dhaka to put up institutions so anyway
well we're learning here in the mind but
i took a moment to digress is not only
does he make a decision
to learn and to dominate to do mitzvahs
but to beautify mitzvahs
you know we have to get rid of this
attitude heaven
you know we can get away with it what's
the minimal i can get away with to do a
mitzvah
it's such a unholy attitude
that i it should be just the opposite
what's the minimalist get away with to
exist
and have whatever material matter i need
for myself and family
that's
the
the minimal and and to get away with and
what i want to spend and enrich and
enhance
that's the mitzvah let's continue
yes
you smile the fun of his body that ever
says and he should even do more than his
ability
in beautifying
himself
before hashem be mixed with mitsubishi
and he should make a candy for his
partner here too we have to we have to
say
we're not talking about looking for
handouts make it kaylee
whatever the kaylee may be whether it's
an investment
whether it's a phone call
you have to make it kaylee how the chips
will fall
that's in the ambitious hands but we
have to make it
the gift of bashem and we have to have
trust in hashem
that he will give us
you see how much you need
sometimes people
get more and they spend it on doctor
bills
or headaches and stress is it worth it
is it worth it
no
i'd rather have less
and less people are always asking me why
don't you bring so many more books and
get a distributor and put it out and and
again i said you know why because i have
more stress from that
why
i won't be able to dive into learning to
teach as well and to write and research
i make it kaylee i have my customers i
have my clients and so that's it
and barack hashem at the end of the day
i have less stress and i think i make
more than they do
because
you know the the the larger picture many
times comes with a big price
comes at a big price
just just just picky of us you know what
is the same picture of us uh avi
marvin
marble
much property much real estate much
headaches
much anxiety
you can own a lot of real estate
and the plumbing is broken and it's
frozen the pipes and now that the rent
can't
they're because of cover they're not
paying rent
and you know entire
multi-millionaires are
declaring bankruptcy i just saw online
uh uh
i guess uh you know support hasidic
builder in williamsburg massive
buildings are put on hold there
right they went bankrupt now
i i don't know the behind the scene
but i was thinking
about hashem he's able to do this and
he's doing it i'm sure for his community
but at the same time
it's marvin the huss and marvin
so we have to
you know the balance that's the trick of
rum
the trick is the balance between making
a caylee for parnosa
and getting stressed out because of
pynosa
that's
that takes art
expertise
that takes a real
thoughtfulness and consultation with a
your spouse
be with experts in the field and c
following the advice
not going off on your cocka mating
own ways and and and saying excuse me
screw you and i'll do what i want
because then you end up in a deep black
hole with lots of problems headaches and
heartache and unfortunately sometimes
illness and death
so why go down why go that down that
route
why go down that road look what the
rabbit says here and follow the script
here i'm telling you
as an experienced man
being on both sides in my work
i i the level
of accomplishment
and stress-free in the last 25 years
that i've had
completely
are is much better than than before
it's not a guy of a thing it's not an
eagle thing
and of course at the end of the day it's
the a bister
it's god you have but you you thank god
and you
from your perspective
you have to calculate this
and you know where i'm going to live you
and your wife are asking yourself a
question
where are you going to live i remember
you
he moved there yeah he asked me about
where to live i remember we had a
discussion in kayla once about that five
years ago
i'm just saying
these are good these are these are
important issues
and and and they need to really be
thought out well
and at the end of the day
if you're believing that's
write to him talk to him
laugh with him cry with him
and get his input and you could get his
input
if you're willing to listen
if you want to say i know
then don't don't trade him a cup don't
waste his time he has enough people to
help
but if you're willing to listen and i
mean listen
and listen means that whether you
communicate through the ohio through the
igor's kaidish through 770
through your safer on your desk
whatever or through your mashpia or
through your wrath or through your good
friend
whatever it is you have to listen
and that's something parenthetically
that's missing today
we're not listening it's all talk
it's all talked by most people
so we have to listen
that ever hear he talks to us and gives
us such a beautiful script
and such a beautiful way of being
stress-free
we just have to follow what he says
and it's not complicated it's not zohar
it's not kabbalah
he's telling us what to do make it
california
have trusted hashem that whatever hashem
gives you is what you need
that means
not to say i could have made more
which we tend to say
no
what you have through the kayla you made
is what you need and your family needs
without the stress
i will say sometimes it doesn't pay the
bills so make a bigger calendar
and if hashem feels that
this is what you need you're going to
get it
you're going to get it
at some later point maybe i'll tell you
a story to support this i'm not ready to
say it yet because it's i'm a midst of
something but
it's clear it's crystal clear
the story that i told you yesterday
which i i didn't end off is
i ended up but i just you know
wasting a year on a property and being
told that it has a leakage
that's an example of
so you'll say but how did you know
how did you know and you and you were
doing it not for yourself you were going
to buy the property to build a cabaret
house for yiddish
and that's true
that's true
but the i look thinking back i didn't
consult enough people
it was my you know my own
my own doing and
with good intent
but it could be that if i would have
consulted some more people they would
have said from the beginning stay away
even though it's so enticing and there's
no other property
and the proof is what's the proof
that after they notified me of the
leakage i went and contracted on the
largest
home which used to be the original
farmhouse in that 528
zone community and i bought that home
and that's where the cabaret house is
today
on on idle berry road it had 28 fruit
trees with a large pool
and a 5 000 square foot building so i
put the shule downstairs and the other
rabbi upstairs and we were in business
and i built a mig for their men's mikveh
the women's mikveh
and barakasha
and it stands today and it continues
so the what does that show
for some reason i had to go through the
stress of that year
but davis just said
no
and and then davis to i guess
felt compassion on us
and he sent us an ability and and it was
the last moment that i got that cabarrus
because the neighbors
were against
chabad being in their neighborhood
because of sony you know stuff and all
that
and at the last minute they tried to
offer the owner of that uh they were
from hawaii i remember
hawaiians they offered them more money
and i already had them in contract so
they couldn't get out they wanted at the
last moment to renege and and get out
it's all hash practice
it's all hashgog
so remember that as we continue let's
continue inside the
is part of what we're supposed to think
about
at night
before we retire we make the
account
we have to make the account what
happened in the past
simultaneously if i ask him
and the agreement
the resolution because of the strong one
alahaba on the future
i don't want to go back
there to the bed
vasaytov and i want to continue doing
good
yet
look what it says i've rung
then your sleep will be sweet
you want sweet sleep sweet dreams
follow the script
say krishna make a husband yeah
and including the husband how you messed
up and make a resolution to not do it
again and only to do good
why is it that if you do this before you
go to sleep your sleep will be sweet
says that heaven because it's brought in
the swarm in the holy books that at the
time when you're sleeping
your soul ascends to heaven
they show everest
and it fetches
life
it fetches a new aspect of life
during sleep you hear that
over male and therefore and
automatically how they become a
missionary
when you rise in the morning from your
night from your sleep
beside it be sad is good you aroused
with a great arousal
you don't just say it half
asleep
you jump out of your bed you say my
daughter knee
why because at night you got new hymn
you got new life
you're not the same person you see it's
so different the way we think
i'm groggy i'm tired
no way
as soon as you open eyes
and you realize i'm alive i've told you
that story of that hustle in may asharim
rabbi kastel
who told
rabbi yosel weinberg the ainaku the
grandson of the solana mareda who was
his shamish
when he was a bucker in mayor sharim
and robert castell was an older husset
and he was already you know getting
close to his passing and all that
and one and he slept
in this apartment and
and weinberg was like a little
assistant to him
so weinberg is up sitting there and he
hears from the room he says
and he jumps into the room thinking
something happened
and he sees a man full of kayaks saying
i'm alive
[Music]
i'm alive
huh i'm 85 year old man getting up that
way
because it's all in the mind
it's on the cup
this is whatever says
and if you understand that you believe
that at night
after having a good krishna mita
you have an opportunity to shep to fetch
new hayem
in the morning your demonstrative of
that new high that new life
with an arousal of the heart
that hashem returns to you
the peacock you know what picado means
[Applause]
alone
hashem gave us alone the cold and the
sham of the soul
at night we return the pecan to hashem
it's his it's not ours
joining
so in the morning when he returns to us
alone each morning
we're so grateful
now however
i
yes yes go ahead and then i'll say
deposit chicago needs a deposit now
[Music]
i'm sorry i did not hear you
yeah picardon is
a deposit a deposit thank you
thank you
now
that's right
um
how many how many of us
knew that this is the
avodah of krishna mita
how were you taught by sure you were
chappelle's yeshiva how did they teach
you about krishna
could you tell me
i can't really comment on it because
frankly it wasn't it wasn't something
that we it wasn't something that was
discussed
um let's say in public when i was there
not because
because it wasn't okay okay got it but
but yeah avraham
what did you know about krishna
shalamita before you learned this
you're you're still on youtube ron take
yourself mute yourself you're on youth
take it off
[Music]
i'm gonna always be i've been doing it
for years so i always knew that it's
like a hedge fund that fast before you
go to sleep
you go to bed clean you wake up clean
yes i like what you say you go to bed
like a line you wake up like a lion yes
right but they did you know that these
five
the five steps
that you know the five steps the five
steps that they're enumerated here
towards the beginning of the paragraph
five steps are you supposed to think
about
hello
here he is did you did you did you
were you aware of these five things that
he suggests
not specifically okay
so that's that's
the addition to what you've been doing
till now that you should consider
thinking about
people always ask the question how do i
make a husband on fish
how do i make an account
and the general answer is you think
about how you were the day the week the
month and you know you do truva and you
you say i won't do it again i'll improve
that's very general and guess what
usually it's meaningless
it has no impact
a heisman requires details
how much money did you make how much
money did you make this year oh i made a
lot of money it was a good year how much
i i don't know i didn't make an
accounting
that's not a good question when it comes
definitely to spiritual matters and even
to financial matters
that's why we have an accountant
not to just tell you you lost or you
made
but to give you details so that you
could look back and a
not make the same mistakes in those
areas that you lost money
and then to to find ways of doing it to
use those things that did bring you
money and to to to augment them and to
to to develop them so that you can make
more the same is true or luckily
and that's what we're learning in this
paragraph
so we have to now move
that's exactly why i i asked you emotion
the the the question i mean to discuss
it we have to move from cli to prati
and then the krishna mita will be more
therapeutic
in general krishna mita
we can ask you innocent because he's a
uh a yeshiva
yeshiva
probably in yeshiva i know for myself we
had
more interest and time to engage in this
activity but as you get married and you
have kids and you have responsibility
and you're tired
you come home you eat supper and you sit
on the couch you go
and the next thing you know you're in
your bed sleeping and if you get to say
schmack great
well this is an avoider
this is the bed that she prepared
for the ish kadosh if you want to be a
holy person and i talk for myself
you got to do this if not you're not yet
a holy person you're a good person
you're a nice person you're a smart
person
you're charismatic you're lovable but
you're not a holy person you want to be
holy you have to engage in this avi what
do you say avi i want to hear from you
avi
i always thought that uh
in the morning we thank hashem for
getting up and we hope we have a good
day
minsa was uh
for
uh
hoping that the day continues to go well
we don't get into any stumbling blocks
we'd be successful
and then the evening is to review the
day
what happened
and the sale cash end i did the best i
could
i'm giving my neshama up to you
and
hope i did okay and i hope that you'll
see that
i'm worthy to get it back again tomorrow
in the morning
was prior to my looking at the way
the mimer specifies it
well
was the way i had looked at the
shakrit mint
well
and and uh this is just the beginning
and i i i heard you said that
and so you're on the right trajectory
that this mimer
really is one that we should keep close
to us for the rest of our life because
it's this now we spoke about the evening
krishna that is going to now go over to
the morning so uh get ready for the next
three things the shohan
um the ki the kise the shohan and the
have menorah
good day everyone will see everyone
tomorrow's i guess
and bye bye thank you goodbye thank you
