okay the date everybody we're learning
the mine the hot lady lacrosse Kalwa in
these the safer my mother will cut them
here of the previous rather we're on
page 150 just to recap briefly what we
learned yesterday the last few times
that there's the horse and collar and
just like we greet Shabbos we greet the
hosts in the collar or Broca's come from
Shabbos for the rest of the week of the
previous week he doesn't say that but
that's the implication
APA so to through the greeting the
customer caller one receives or bless
the source of blessings and that he
enumerates the caballes pregnant for
four points four stages and the greeting
of the hussy there is the going with the
fussing to the caller there is the CFO
the failing of the caller and then
there's going together through the
hopper and then he said that under
Hooper's when you have the essential
experience of having the essence of God
revealed as you stand under the chuppah
who stands on the Kaabah the fussing and
the power the fussing cyclist protocol
the collars bidets well the the Eden the
Jews and so too
there's between the physical cross link
Allah and that he says that before the
Hupa why is it necessary
this was Boaz this question yesterday
thank you boys for bringing it to our
attention
what's the what's the what's the
metaphor and the lesson from the failing
of the column so he said that's called
the cockpit of Cathay knee of the must
fear the external closeness of the must
fear to cause the recipient the Makabe
to want to feel comfortable and Ray and
raise herself to the cussin and then the
question is able to give the color of
the Kabbalah
here's the they have spoken is the inner
essence of what he really wants to
communicate let's continuously how it
says this inside bearing in who to
understand this better denominator
saving us all our rabbi saying the
governor of stuff here again page 150
ice Baines
listen to this young it's a beautiful
Gomorrah rather become at the possible
hood upon them robber before he opened
to teach he began before he began
teaching the rabbis imam moussa the
difícil he said a riddle knows the
biggest amis a riddle a joke of
vaudeville next page each one fifty
one-vote who rap on them and the rabbi's
left of them safe Yosef the answer and
the end result was that they sat with
all of fear they they they sat they sat
there listening and and and really
respecting with reverence the rabbi the
teacher robber or possibly smite and
then he began teaching the halacha the
sukhiya of the Gemara that he was
teaching what happened over here what
happened is very simple that guy's rabbi
the the rabbi has a class of students he
comes in they all know he's this
humongous scholar right and they're you
know students so there is a gap between
them and there's a gap that's really
seemingly irreversible so it takes the
rabbi the teacher to initiate a
particular method to break hide a blazer
to break the good morning to break it
takes it takes the teacher rapper to
break the fear so what does he do it
basically does what a what a many
speakers do today before they begin with
the real
content they make a joke they say a
riddle they say something you know that
that's that's easygoing that everyone
gets more into the comfort zone that's
what the governor says insulting Robert
did for with his tummy them and once he
saw they were all comfortable and they
were relaxed as we say English they were
chilled out then a pulse of the shmita
he was able to really give them the meat
and potatoes so before you get meat and
potatoes you have to have an appetizer
that's the idea here
let's continue gamma-sphere sort of with
they Allah who let up on them
it takes the must fear it takes the
teacher to initiate the process with and
for his rabbis meaning his students the
high knew losses as amicable it's up to
the torture they must fear to make the
recipient or ro irritable virus for that
he be suitable to receive the
information I adapt sequence a king of a
who's-who salary how does it do that by
opening his vessels and his talents in
other words every student every macabre
has Huson and caleb right the question
is how do you open them how do you find
them so the rebus says that takes a
teacher there must fear to figure out a
way to create that opening in the
student but you guys see how important
it is to have a good teacher I mean the
same you know school you can have
there's great teachers but if they don't
know how to access and get the students
to be interested enough to write you
remember when I'm talking about laser
to actuality in actuality to do it the
words in the mind we look at the words
in the second line at 1:51 behind new la
sauce that's havoc Abu rabu you what is
the word hill route will mean suitable
ready so in other words not that we're
doing it now it's not being done yet but
it's I should be ready to do it if like
the chance presents itself that's what
growing needs and it continues with
service with TIA
might sir shall year the virus
fall if he Erica macaque then he says
once you you open up that comfort level
for the students you need to then open a
halacha smites in his Asuka a lot of
meat and potatoes right CEO governor has
spoiled if he tried it with the Arahama
Kabul it can overwhelm I yoni if you
overwhelm the student with some you know
flute and tootin you know trigonometry
equations and they basically know basic
mathematics you talking to a wall
did you like that what are you doing
what are you doing here you want to show
how great you are go to a wall talk to
the wall you know no you not so if what
he saying is even even even after you
open up the talents of each student in
the room then and then you start
teaching there I'm hoping that they'll
use their talents to understand what
you're teaching them or giving them if
you give them a house world that's way
over their head they ain't getting
anything you're wasting your time that's
what he says let's continue
and he says village A's therefore he may
become at the pulse of what I belong
before the the robber the teacher opened
the the glass with the information the
shemites at Halawa the suger
ah safes in Black Lake up although to to
make them a vessel for receiving the
halacha
on my mills of the business sir what did
he do first he said a riddle he said a
joke he cracked the joke he made them
comfortable
that's why princeless our wonderful
pencils is always making nice jokes he
wants us to feel comfortable to learn by
the flow by myself
he's the one that provides for us the
most of the difícil mill said this is a
post sickness but III was I was hoping
I'd get a comment out of him anyway well
mill said that because he was cooler now
the other says here the riddle is not a
riddle of total rhythm you know I have
these Torah riddles the new server D
system the riddle is secret school
encircles cocoon is mundane conversation
it's not sick as kodesh the lubavitcher
rebbe is the rebels a citizen called the
seekers kodesh the holy seahawks the
holy talks
it's a schooling it's it's conversation
of which its content is human right from
the word whole mundane secular the
emails and although this he has Hulu
shall be the common system we both now
this is a rhetorical remark the Gemara
says in suka that the conversation
you'll discuss cooling of the ordinary
mundane tell me this a common scholars
sleep in Nemeth we need to study when
you hear a common custom speak what
sounds to you like mundane conversation
comes to the Marisa and says you have to
explore it and study it because there's
brilliance of Torah there
so the rebus question is the previous
question is if that's the case why do
you tell me that the way to open up the
talents of the top of his students today
feel coaster
is with ceaseless cooling when the
Gemara says in suka that secrets cooling
itself needs it has a lot of death
that's his question and his and his
report his immediate retort is any was
dose that was still the fish yes my
cross parappa this is still part of the
the rhetorical question if you see has
been caught by rapper because Cephas
huland there is much wisdom to it was
holy I'm looking and deep intellectual
thoughts and here comes the retort when
we call Malcolm he well is the retort to
the words of two lines above the Mao so
they may use implies rhetorical question
who Macomb Oakland is nevertheless is
the report to the to the to the
rhetorical question only call my own and
nevertheless who previously Chinese yes
yes he was cooling the Gemara is right
of course she was cooling we need to
explore no question about it
however however compared to what's going
down compared to the thing it's only
it's only fits ideas it's only external
you can't compare a high level of sugar
a cup of question of content to see for
schooling
in other words he's saying that okay
another designed this the Gemara is
right to say that ceaseless cooling
recently worked but the chimeric doesn't
mean to say that cephus cooling is
equivalent to - what - the content
it's that said that's what is Nicole
Markham nevertheless
secrets : it's still pretty sweet
rainiest it's still external in
comparison to the content I'm Tanisha
Bogle Jason and although the greater one
is her Adama
the solution oi handed my belated
guevara yes and then the persons that
the persons conversation the greater one
is a comic often right but then that
person secret school of mundane
conversation is greater
she has rumored mayhem higher than your
in the voyage you could learn much
wondrous things many wondrous things
from listening to a common custom have
mundane conversation and I'm one of this
for a second tell you this is not this
is not something that's just to be taken
lightly sometimes if you have a chance
that you're in the school or you're in a
trap of tone or you're on a vacation if
you have to tell me there's a husband
and and and they're sitting and speaking
what seems to be ordinary conversation
if you're able to eavesdrops on them and
listen to the conversation because this
will alert again because since they're
both tell me they're coming
their secret schooling is not like the
citrus woman of the ordinary person
their mundane conversation is much more
sophisticated elevated spiritually
even though compared to really learning
the modern on that its secrets :
that's what it says here say yes Ruben
there have had a big young women for him
we one can learn many wondrous things
from listening to the mundane
conversation of tammy holman the ins
lt's there the incas l rap legless
Hoffman
Mavis pill vibe it's only Navy's enables
reasons like I'm not the fruit itself
it's something that falls off the fruit
you know a branch a twig
it's not the very thing itself only
Coleman hain hang goofy customer the
episodes but never forget that the
sisters who lead affirmative comin it's
novelist Hosmer but it's still hot
Smurfs Torah it's not to be dick today
mother's life
tell them to say that the conversation
of the Vedic economy is secular and
mundane and in its very coarse form or
even in this regular form no the mother
says amico monkey did we say become open
heyn heyn goofy hokhmah that itself is
customer my beloved signals ow and
that's the mother say the rabbi's say
supers were saying - I prefer the term
terminology of Cohanim is blessed we're
saying how come I said the words of the
Cohanim is wealth
we're saying ha ha me MARTA the words of
how common is healing the who she Musa
she'll Taylor and this is called the
apprenticeship of Torah and you all know
the famous saying that the that the lead
said he learned more from the way the
maggot tied his shoes I forget which
Rebbe said this he was a student of the
maggot of miss rich who's your cyclist
you test his luck next week on Tuesday a
week from today so he said I learned
more from the way by Rebbe ties and
shoes than from the teachings how do you
support that and by the way you probably
don't know you probably know this has
been a kind of a contested issue over
the years between the Hasidic world and
the Litvak world you know what cretins
do you give to Shenmue special Torah in
other words what you know do you spend
your time learning learning learning and
just stop with this you know learning
from a Rebbe how he eats and how he
sleeps and how he walks you know or from
atomic awesome
for that matter for example you know in
brisk right the Brit the brisker are
very very like against this type of
activity of you know paying attention to
the the
the drugs you know personal behavior in
his conversation they don't of course
they know the Gemara the camera sucker
but they types the gomorian super that
refers to mundane conversation within
the realm of Torah I'll give you an
example rabbi is is Flo Jacobson was a
Jew Kate alerted hub and Labov each in
the 1900s and then it came to America in
1926 and and and he was a someone who
helped establish kabadi in in America so
I read in his memoirs I read that he
said he was it was traveling somewhere
this is 1938 I think actually Poland he
came here to see the Rebbe and he was a
he was very tired so he was at a train
station waiting for a train or something
around the train and he says you took
out a certainly safer and he read it and
he said it and and he said because he
was too tired to deeply study of Sylvia
so you see there's a difference between
studying a piece of the murder of the
you know looking into a Rashi with great
depth and and you know toiling and
Harvey it's a wit versus just you know
reading something but that's all of
Torah that's all in the realm of Torah
so that's what we're saying over here
that's that's in the realm of learning
tone so that's how the brisker look at
this Gomorrah but many others look at
the Gemara in a very simple way she Musa
Jelena means being Masonic serving
aiding taurah and taurah and a common
culture so the and and you know whether
this has been overdone there is a
criticism out there that has been really
overdone but forget about the you know
the the practical aspect now where
people go off you know on a pageant and
they decide they have to spend so much
time looking at the Rebbe shoes i
remember i want to tell you guys i
remember selling plants with their ever
okay
out ne ne ne ne out of shouted but he
got upset this is what he is standing
outside here and waiting for me to come
home the repple would go to the oh hell
normally eras eras rascal dish and on
the 15th of the month every month every
month and he would come back the red
would leave like you know afternoon one
early afternoon and it would come back
when you could dive amirev already
unless you were a software error and you
get avid and much much later and and and
the rabbit because he was diving for
Eden and there was traffic and
everything else you know in there he
couldn't get back to 717 PI me actually
the earlier days he did in the 1950s and
60s but later that workload with the
amount of people that wrote them that he
should diving for them Hashem at the Oh
health became so much that he had so
much reading of the of the petition
notes and the tech loss of the letters
that he couldn't make it back on time
earlier so anyway sometimes so the
buckram stood outside 770 and waiting
and waiting and the keys the car coming
from Easter back way and I remember a
few times there episode and he said stop
wasting your time go inside a murderer
but what are you doing how come a
compliment hunt and we'll dive into it
he didn't say those words you know but
he did so I'm saying is that this idea
of emotional cater can be abused as well
but but at the same time there's
something to be with Shama so Tom
McLoughlin to be the shaman Tom
accustomed to do apprenticeship is the
practicality of whole learning you could
learn and philosophize and until you do
this she was the actual attendance and
work and apprenticeship you're not
you're not doing it so that's why she
must return and though so you know a rug
or of a real rough a real post sake
needs to have Simlish you know what does
that mean so for your some those that
those that want to be you know real
and they hang that and hanging around
other up on them older than them and
they go with them to the schwa place to
the slaughterhouse and they hear the
silence of cosmas and they hear the
silence of neither you know you take
Simlish I did a little humorous before I
went out to California as weakness in 84
I went to a few Bunyan and and took
emotion a few in a few areas so that I
see and hear and see how they apply how
dr. nerd I love her to the practical
situation but I get a little ugly but
they don't you know ruffles full time a
rough past in silence really they need
that and without that it's all very nice
from a book from a safer from a base
mesh but they're missing the shimu she's
a player so this is what we're talking
about it's continued back in the - a
says for I'm gonna sound he quotes the
good mother brothers powerful Gerber the
damage the bushes from failure against
them in the Buddha greater is serving
the cleaner the apprenticeship more yes
I know about the Gemara
but I didn't want to use that example
but I know I know about the camera you
know I think today laser we could
there's so many other areas before we
get to sleeping in on our readies
private bedroom and let us continue
anyway anyway so the governor says the
how the Gerber says a breakfast today
Lisa Moussa cetera Yosemite Buddha great
greater is the CMOS of Torah
more so than
actually you hear that is greater to be
Misamis be its Amish be of aid for Torah
more than the learning authority cinema
and the government agrees and brothers
approve to that statement from here it
says shall Emma play it says over here
in maluf him in Kings 2 chapter 3 verse
11 it says like this at least have been
so
I'll show you upset my in my a daily Oh
elisha the son of shaphat comport water
throughout the head and hands of le oh
it doesn't say what my glowing them are
it doesn't say that he learnt with him
and layup suck he poured water little I
made this teaches us Shagga Taylor she
Musha yeh said Millie Bordeaux that
great is greater is He Bush is assisting
more than learning that's the proof of
the come on so now he continues going
back to the next sex next part that he
began with in this chapter the he name
would say after Robert opened up his
teaching his students with a riddle
Yosef the answer the students act with
or Hooper softish might sir and then he
began teaching them the content the
sugar the Halawa that he wanted he was
teaching them the lead with updated
Sutter who is be the sabayon that effort
says motion listen to the rabbit takes
of the murder the good mother literally
means what you'll need they sat with
fear you know and there's only a Habad
rabbit could do there ever says that
doesn't mean they were sitting there
with trepidation shaking it doesn't only
mean that it means that they were
permeated
was you know session you know Somalia
that's what Robert camp
accomplished by getting them to feel
comfortable and to allow their senses to
open up it reminds me of you know a
mother not story but it's something that
there was not deacon there was a deacon
on their desk was money
why was the money on the desk usually
and people would come in they would see
the money on the desk you know in a way
it's that's not not not nice you know
people would give exotic a red bird they
would give him a a petition though the
letter asked them to pray to a shell and
for them and their needs and they would
give money they would give that'sthat's
was been the tradition if they're able
to and then and and by the way there's
it's not just you know there's holy
sources for this idea of giving school
opinion but as a pig in mean a
Redemption my father Homer was a
hospital Babbage Utley says you know you
want the rabbit to go and and and and
now he for you and ask a sham you
believe that the rapper has a cleft that
you know more than yours that you davon
and he's you know he'd go straight up
there what are you giving him he's like
what are you giving him what are you
giving him what are you giving your
guests to give sadaqa that's what he
said and and and and and you should know
I mean I bother people who who they
wouldn't give a check they would get
cash for the bank and they would put the
cash and send the cash in and they were
hopeful that the Rebbe accepted their
cats anyway it's just a whole thing of
money it's something that I don't know
if you've heard about or read or what
nuts not it's not a joke it's a it
there's holiness to it if it's if it's
done right and authentic and the
person's authentic so but then there
were rebels who had money on their debts
so when you came in to ask for abruptly
a sword why and the explanation that
that fact it doesn't it doesn't look
nice the answer is they needed the money
in a way to cause them her harvest
hadass harvest bees broaden into the
you know in other words they feel uh you
know they don't have to worry how
they're gonna support their wife and
children and then community the money
was trying to open her like I said
before an appetizer so so was saying
over here was saying over here and that
just a remark and I wanted it reminds me
I went to see of a couple ones with a
group of people in Dimona I don't know
if I ever told you but I had the
experience to meet the woman that was
possessed with a did book I went to
interview her about the 15 of so years
ago more in there too strong and she had
time with the bear Sheva but the actual
the Dippold everything else happened in
Dimona on the way to Damona I stopped
off at the Baba's all his great nephew
called Makalu philosophy I don't anyone
was around at a time they took about 15
20 years ago he lived out in it'll come
to me I forget but maybe he lived in
Dimona he lived at the moment I think so
I when I went to see him because the
people told me you're selling me told me
to go so I took him along and we won't
gave you some money you know I mean what
he did than what he said I recorded and
put out a video you can actually see the
way I'm a kugel does Cibola on us it's
very interesting
so I documented it and I have it out in
a video so so we gave you some money and
all the sudden he spoke on the Arabic
they start to understand the word and
the interpreter says he's like he's like
saying it's not enough money so okay we
gave my but it I was I was very
surprised like here you are you're kind
of a
you are I'm a couple and you're
authentic that's to tell me and and I'm
not saying he was using it you know to
buy a more comfortable couch your Xiaomi
interpreter said you know you didn't
raise Maestas but I still was a little a
little taken back you know but you know
I'm not gonna be judgmental of just
telling you what happened so why am I
saying this because we're talking about
the the milk's of the disaster that
causes you yet your assertion the proof
is in the pudding
he here this how do you know if your
joke and your opening and your riddle is
kosher and acceptable and has done its
job
only if you create in the recipients of
the students who sit there now and
listen to the lecture your assertion
that's the proof and if user in it and
if not that means you use the wrong joke
the wrong riddle the wrong opener I
think it's a great lesson for public
speakers to you know sometimes they the
public speaker will throw out a joke or
a riddle or something and and and what
follows is just their board and not
interested in a way and they walk away
not moved and in this case they walk
away without you not Somalian so the
inker is they get is from I am anyway
will continue to borrow everyone sizes
aunt romesco what we they Moscow then
I'm great and pulling with a mask okay
desires waiting for a week we're gonna
be gonna be in the air okay have a safe
trip everybody I will see when you get
back take care
