paige maisha give me the page 166 right
[Music]
still in the
what
you know i think we're in the the top
paragraph yeah yes
[Music]
okay
the rebbe said something very powerful
here
which is another thing it's hard to
digest but you need we need to
and that is
that
a person can understand concepts godly
ideas understand them well
but he doesn't feel
this is the issue we've been talking
about for for a few weeks
[Music]
and in this miner that ever says the
reason why he doesn't feel it is because
he is he said because he has he is bound
he's bound to
to materialism
he says clearly
to to um
eating drinking
and anger
that's what he those are the three
issues that he identifies in this mimer
and
and it's inside him
it's inside him
[Music]
meaning meaning
[Music]
even
in his subconscious
it's there
so even when consciously he's not angry
but if he has anger in him
it's gonna
block so that's that's very important
sometimes you ask yourself
i'm in a good mood
i just learned
why don't i feel something
that ever says the reason is because you
have anger inside you
and until you get rid of that anger
subconsciously he doesn't use those
words i'm paraphrasing subconsciously
that anger is going to be a blockage
and the same is true for the indulgences
from food to sleep to all kinds of other
pleasures and everything else
an indulgence creates a state of being
in in in the persona
now i i think you know those that know a
little about you know the psychoanalysis
probably freud would would agree with
with some of that or all of it
right philip
that's that's pretty much it
yeah i i think that that's a accepted
idea in psychology right
so that's you know here you see that
amber wasn't a psychologist
see this is
i always say because it is the best
psychology if you learn it properly you
think about what he's saying
it's it's so much you know there's so
many similarities
and
anyway so that that's the recorder that
we learned last week but
our objective is
it's yesterday because in a week and a
half we're walking out of messiah
or better said we need to walk out up
inside him every day
so now we're going to get to now that
ever is going to explain that part let's
go inside the minor okay
oh and one more thing he said that that
i didn't
emphasize enough last week
he says
how do you bring
what's up here into here he's in this
minor he says
use coil sound voice music
singing
and this is also important
sometimes as much as you rationalize and
you understand
it doesn't sometimes most times it
doesn't bring to that feeling says that
ever go into a mode of singing of music
of coyo
beginning with the simple idea of
video say the words out with your lips
when you read them
right you could you could just read the
text like this scan the text you know
like some skin on zohar
right
you can scan the talmud
you can say the words out with your
mouth that's one what one simple thing
that's hazal teaches
then there is what is brought in in
siddhis another swarm the idea of coil
and here too we see a we see differences
in coil from the from the the yeshiva
bakar whose
there's a coil there's a sound there's a
music there's a tone
to the one who's singing you look at
some hasidic art from
that they're singing they're singing the
song
right in some of the chapad old
you'll see they go like this they they i
don't know what's the knack with the
cannot queen he get it to say knocked
middle finger
finger cannot go like this whatever the
english word for that is
snap your finger
okay
that isn't just a mistake in the in the
artist
that was the way khabad khasid
when they when they
identified with with what's called the
imus
the sweetness of godliness by
understanding it they expressed it with
a knack of the finger a knock of the
finger
ah
that
that ah
that's not here
that's
coil
and that's why they think they sang the
goodness sometimes a happy [ __ ]
some type of meditative ignorant that
could sound
you know morbid but it's not morbid but
you know more vegas
so coil
coil is a very powerful tool
and
and there too
you know
we have to
explain that there's
there's coil that's healthy and there's
coil that's frankly foolish
you
know has to show them to say that a
certain
derek of yidden
their coil is foolish that's not what
i'm saying
but i'm saying as an individual
come on come on you know
know yourself if you really believe that
screaming
is helpful to you then scream
don't scream [ __ ] by disturbing 20
people around you
but if that's your voice
yeah i i believe me
i go to carleen when i need to get a
boost when i need some uh what do we
call that not gatorade what's that other
drink i think
red bull yeah
yeah
so instead of that you're going to
carleen no but the point is
just in in morning in davao and it was
coming from chakras right
if i don't raise my voice usually the
the the minion is like
it's like a cemetery
you know what you hardly hear anybody
so sometimes especially just having a
little louder part of that and then all
of a sudden i hear people get it people
are starting to dive in a little louder
that's all it should feel like we're
dabbing with simple not in the cemetery
you know
all these things are semantics but that
ever saying here the individual
if you feel so this is an answer one
answer to your issue
to your issue is that you identify your
issue our issue but you brought it out
why is it that i understand the pain and
i don't feel it
so we spoke about
possibly why
because there are other blockages within
your subconscious
i don't mean you i don't mean because i
mean us us within our subconscious
and what's the solution more importantly
is in this mimer and his others our
answer is nothing my mother he says
quail
use nagina
in khabad
you should know that nagina played
played and plays a very big role
and i don't mean just a good song good
music i'm talking about in aveda when
davening when especially when davening
if you
if you get into a good niggin and you
allow the niggin to
take you
to swallow you
uh very therapeutic
very cathartic
so a negan which is coil is another step
i would say a step two
to the idea of the dibata bomb and
that's what the rabbit suggests here
and by the way this is very unique you
won't find a lot of this indifferent my
modern in other words this is a unique
uh
advice let's imagine a tanya and agarose
akaidis but
to bring it here in a mimer i think is a
very unique thing any question on that
okay
let's go up whatever says now
yes
it ever says
you know when you talk about leaving
egypt
there are different great gradations
there's barely getting out of the
problem you better get out of here bro
this place is terrible i have to leave
i met sharpest someone because of covert
who's living out of potomac maryland
and he does
it's amazing amazing the world we live
in he checks
he's a he's a pathologist with a phd
from kansas university
he checks
for
cancer
online on the screen
in s thomas the virgin islands
while listening
to rabbi gordonhabad.org
imagine he's working for that that
famous that big pharmaceutical company
as their 10k what is it yeah hillel
azer azer you know the major company in
america that uh
azer i forget the name how do you
pronounce it
i'm not sure which one you mean yeah
thank you thank you that's the one
that's the one yes sir they made they
made one of the vaccines right they were
in one of the
groups that produced a vaccine i don't
know
he says yeah he says
right
so he's sitting he says i'm doing it
online what's the difference so he ran
when covet came he ran to the to the
virgin islands
it's gorgeous and beautiful
so him and his mother-in-law they bought
a villa there and and you know you know
they don't have kennels that's an issue
there's a schliere there
well why am i saying this
because you see us from a triumph cove
it comes you run away
then afterwards you come back
what's the next step so that rabbit says
here
that the first step of is to vacate get
away from the problem you'd see us with
zeraya
then you have to internalize it look
further the whooing in
the next thing is where it becomes
this escape the great escape from egypt
an egyptian culture and mindset
needs to become the will of your heart
this is brought into zara
usa is the aramaic for razon the liba is
the aramaic for life the will of of the
heart
is there an implicit distinction here
when he's talking about the rats on de
liba from from what we normally think of
as ratzen which is more associated with
the moa absolutely well said oh
there's pages and pages on what you just
said now considers pages
especially in the discourses on rosh
hashanah
because rosh hashanah it says it's a
cult muhammad it's a it's a a sound that
comes from very deep within
so there are in in it's brought a
kabbalah but
this really delve into this concept and
they say that the the the coil coming
from the chauffeur is coming from us
so there's a lot a lot of work over
there if you if you care to when it
comes to the time i can give you some
references where to learn but in in a
nutshell he said is correct
russell liba is not the russian of moa
right guys i don't know if you let me
you understand what hillary said he said
a very important thing there is a will
coming from an intellectual
understanding that's not what we're
talking about here here we're talking
about something much deeper in the
subconscious
which it becomes like from inside
yourself and we call that russo the
liberals
how do you transform doctors to light
you have to have rusev
and what does this mean
yes
subjugate yourself control yourself
moisture get away from the problem
but running away from the problem
doesn't solve the problem the problem is
still there
comes step two
which is
his topical
transformation
oh
trust in other words
internalize what your the escape
internalize
what you did and why you did it and it
should become part of you that you will
never do it again
that can only come from very deep within
which we call it who's in the libra
is it clear
and that's why he calls it
[Applause]
when we left egypt
we were goofballs
we were into the avoid desire
you think we changed overnight no god
did us a big favor he said get out of
here move
it is not for you leave
and i'm forcing you out so we had no
choice we left
then came
what happens to you
we
internalized
why did god do this
hey we had a great life in egypt
we have all the comforts
oh there's something wrong it's a
christian culture it's an egyptian
culture
there's lots of
things that tempt us
and their disguise with a mask
like someone at the fabregas shabbos
says
i know you guys some of you guys are
going to these peso programs
he's talking to the babbages he says but
i let me tell you something
it would be better if you went to a
non-bra to a gabrex program with a weak
hatcher so then you know that you're
doing something wrong
instead of going to the program
with
10 hectares
and you feel ah
oh i'm so holy i'm so religious i can't
even keep right he says so the guy who's
mentioned this rabbit is stepping from
yerushalayim from from mayank he
happened to be with us for shabbos too
so he was telling them and i thought was
great he said to them no
you shouldn't feel good about being at
the pacer program
yeah your wife wanted you there you know
whatever you're there
but my friend we usually we don't
celebrate praise and pesach programs we
celebrated the house that's the way we
were trained as kids and that's the way
the real you know
because pay success anyway
why am i saying this
because we left with slime yeah okay
we were we we had it good
yes we were slaves but in many other
ways you know it was great and and the
proof is that we actually
worship their culture
so that's why comes feeder saliva says
it's a big mistake
hashem took you out of here because he
saw if he doesn't what does it say
madrish
hillary what does it say there was we
were sunk 49 58 yeah
yeah
we were almost gone
and it was beating
yeah swept away
exactly hashem
had mercy think about that when it comes
pace at night next friday night just
think about the passion how we owe
thanks and and gratefulness hashem for
for saving us although we wouldn't be
here we would not be here
okay
it's hard to imagine how can you say the
jewish people wouldn't be here well
when you assimilate and
we all know what that means
because
never you know i'm sure
we know people relatives others who
married out and all that and what's left
i told you in petaluma california north
of marin county
where
i was
that it was a conservative shoe
and i went into the social hall one time
and i saw pictures on the wall black and
white large pictures of gatherings in
the show from the 1920s and 30s
that that should
so i asked where are their grandchildren
and i was told they're lutherans
most of them are lutherans
yeah in petaluma they're dead heads
okay maybe the dead heads too
maybe the dennis
that's like that's like the regional
flag of petaluma california okay
well
i i i m my my neighboring town town was
petaluma
and with the chicken farms i have a lot
to tell you about that but not now but
anyway
so
they wanted to start the keyboards
movement there you know that
the the original settlers were
socialists bundes from russia and they
were hoping to make there the kibbutzim
that they made an urges role not of
course anti-religious and all that
and what's the result that they're all
the grandkids are all going with
lutherans not just [ __ ]
bachmann islam
how you see it
so
guess what we weren't far from that
within science we were not
it's it's to me it's like such a scary
thought
so that ever says
what saved us
now here's the question god took us out
saved us right the answer is we would
have gone right back in
we would have been lured right back into
the michigans
what saved us is the next process fear
of
transformation
taking the darkness and converting it to
light that's what he says back to the
text
is
the activity of serving god with logic
only
brings one to subjugation
to control
i will avoid it
but the avoider known as the service of
the the will of the heart coming from
the very deep
subconscious
this vacates you
from the entire
notion of limitations
in other words there is
a limitation
and i need to understand that i'm
limited by it and
be careful from it and find ways to get
out of it
but moshe even when you get out of such
a limitation the limitation still exists
[Applause]
and that ebba says that as important as
that is to vacate that limitation you
have to know it's only a beginning and
if you get stuck there
you're playing with fire because and we
see this we see this today too
how many people do not graduate
and leave the first step of their truva
in
everyone from the ffb to the bt makes no
difference they fall right back into it
i see it today we see this so so much
more
where people are 50 60 years old
they fall back
what hap what's going on
it used to be that it's teenager and
young adults that are having issues with
god and all of that in religion
what happens a person is 20 30 years
religious has a family and all of a
sudden he checks out what's going on
so it you know
and it's happening
it's happening and it's not happening
he's just dropping his wife and going
with another woman or for another woman
that's
that's also an issue
it's in every area from religion the
answer is that there was no graduation
there was a there was a a coasting on a
certain level for many years
and kids family and community kept you
coasting and then when
you're you're a empty nester and and and
you're by yourself with your wife
i i know someone i'm thinking someone
particularly now he just left new york
went to florida hanging out on south
beach and like my god what what what are
you doing
what are you doing
and i and i asked him because it's a
friend i asked him like well i uh my
kids are out of the house
wow
what are you this guy
that that that's judy isn't
and this is happening in various ways
so how do you change that says that ever
it comes through
adapting an attitude and coming to a
point that your yiddish guy your
connection to god goes beyond
limitations
in other words if you want it to be
permanent and real it
it needs to
it needs to you need to come to a point
where you're experiencing
limitless
you're experiencing gurusa deliba in the
language of the minor
then
regardless of where you are and when you
are and how old you are it makes no
difference
you understand
so if my rabbi's not around my wife's
not around my kids are not around
my god is around because he's in me
that's what and it's a gomura right
uh ain't miss following ella
covert roche
you don't you're not supposed to get up
the damage ministry without the sense of
covadrosh heaviness of the head meaning
year is your mind what does that mean
that feeler is independent
of your surroundings
you don't need a shoe to be a yiddish
mayan
so if you're in wyoming or new mexico
and you find yourself there and there's
no minion you get up and down in the
same way like you would have in a big
chamber you're on borough park
what's the difference
for whatever reason that's where you
have to be right now and there's no
minion and there's no rabbi there's no
wife and there's no kids and you're by
yourself
that's the proof
and that can only come
when you have inculcated the the the
connection
where it goes beyond just a you'd see
a vacating
you'd see at the train
it becomes your reality that's what he's
saying here
let me just finish the two lines two
words
they say who is happy
that's how you cause
transformation of darkness to goodness
so that's the answer to a very powerful
question
how do we accomplish
moisture how do we accomplish
the answer is you have to
work on yourself to the point where
you've taken the problem and transformed
it
now hilo probably this is
i'm
part of the philosophy of of the 12-step
program i i'm not
you know very well versed in it but
only when you hit rock bottom so
could we say that the hitting rock
bottom would be the moment of
transformation
would that be fair to say is there
hillel would that be fair to say well
that that is certainly the way it is the
way it's looked at
you know and almost uh it needs to be uh
it's understood as being an essential
component
you say what what's your thoughts
um it's really not in my uh wheelhouse
at that level but but it reminds me of
the
of the uh comparison of claudia israel
leaving the triumph to a seed
that decomposes in the ground before it
sprouts
upward
that
that if it stays you know if it
decomposes one
a little just a little bit more it's
destroyed but it has to go to that state
of
right before total loss and then from
that sprouts the new plant
right right
what's that phrase from those
um
the key the high usa but that
are you referring to like the sprout
right because it's sprouting
brings this analogy in many places right
and that's the room try to remember the
phrase and that's what he uses right
right
but this is uh you know you learn them i
don't know i learned this it's so real
to me this it's like
it's happening this is not like you know
oh
the rebels said this mimer in 1940 in
lakewood it's now 9
2022. uh that's um at 72 years later or
whatever
you know
it's it's it's real it's really real and
uh
it's an avoider it's an avoider so
you know
yes pesach has about it's here
the emphasis is on the seer
right abram here with me
leaving
vacating
but we need to know
that if you wanted to be permanent you
have to make much you have to take that
you'd see here and and and inculcate it
internalize it otherwise
you can fall right back in
and it's true from you know from dieting
you see it there's so many ways it's
it's a constant avoider
any final thoughts questions kevin any
anyway i want you all to get ready on
wednesday we're releasing a wonderful
video
that i did i interviewed my chef ron
here red moisture
so um
we'll send it out i want you to forward
you to everyone a bit chemist
i think you'll uh learn a lot and um
it's it's uh i want to thank moisha for
cooperating
you know it's not easy to get yourself
on the screen and be interviewed and
then have the world see it
once it goes online the world sees it
but what hashem the interviews that i've
done have been received very very well
from label wolf last week i did lisa
neliez lavuten from australia
who i learned with him tanya for 10
years i told you about him and uh very
important he talks about
mashiach he talks about many things you
know and again he's you know he has a he
has a medical degree a law degree and he
decided to go into insurance
very interesting story and um there's a
lot to learn from these interviews i
feel that's why i'm doing them i'm not
doing it you know for myself i'm doing
it for people to learn
from the messages that we share so we'll
do look forward to that see everyone
zeitgeist have a good day
bye bye
take care
