we are on the 347 in the middle of the
mind man the Umbro have my show for the
Year 1924 in this paragraph that is
explaining to us the first
interpretation of the verse that he
brings at the beginning of the mind map
from the targum garrison Targa says that
in Brewer Michele refers to the Yeats at
her that the 8th Sahara tries covering
governing over the person who controls
the person to do things that are wrong
and bad for the person so V so V like my
melon in his great wisdom understands
that there's way my mother says
therefore don't forsake your Torah
because and an emergence of internal
when you have a feeling in a urge of
something that's hurtful to you
spiritually and even emotionally and
Slade my mother caution says that the
result of that involvement an emergent
will be my pain the effort am that I am
it will be a cure to alleviate all kinds
of sins
so this interpretation Hillel is very
different than what we've been learning
till now which is that the rule
Carmichael refers to who hello know this
that this interpretation what was the
previous one that we spent much time on
who does the rule commercial refer to oh
the ruler very good the ruler the people
the person who's in a position of
authority right he's a ruler right so
then they advise that's way my mother
has given given given to him is don't
forsake your another your humility and
we spoke all about that so in in a way
in a certain way that interpretation
small is but in a sense doesn't apply to
each and every one of us because if
we're not enough if we're not a ruler if
without a mother if we're not a governor
and all that so what's the wise are
relevant to us and he explained what
everybody has some people that they have
I understand truly I understand but you
know it the interpretation lends itself
more easily to to someone who is in that
a position of authority whereas
according to the the Targum Unison's
interpretation it's very obvious that it
applies to every one of us because we
have a Yates Uhuru who who tries
controlling us and therefore that ever
starts in this paragraph to deal with
that issue so since he mentions that
what is the what is the cure that your
is tighter so now he starts speaking
about what is plater
and what type of theta are we talking
about that will help us alleviate the
the issues so from a mystic and and and
and he said that not only is it just
something that the nefesh Atticus will
will overcome the nefesh obamas but he
explained that since there is a slap
shows and when we use the word Hyslop
just means there's an investment that
the nefesh Atticus invests itself in the
nefesh our bomb is so it's not that it
gets rid of the neffenger bombers it
actually benefits from what the bed from
from the from the virtue that the nefesh
obamas has it which which is the virtue
of passion Hashem is Liam agita so when
you learn Taylor you accomplished not
only that your godly soul the gates of
tariffs is it a good place but it gets
more energy and we explained that
yesterday as well so and and and that's
on YouTube for those that means to see
here yes this year it's sheer number six
on the that you can look for okay so now
we continue on 300 D so and one more
point and he said entitled there's two
there's three aspects there's the idea
that taters are yourself and he quotes
the pulsatile achieve a lot of moisture
Geils Yaakov it's an inheritance for
every Jew he also explains that theta is
yogya yet you come to title 3 Adia and
he asked the question well as
contradictory fits of inheritance you
don't need to put effort forth if it's a
through effort you don't it's not an
inheritance so he even spoke about that
too and and and he just he alluded to
that he he mentioned it and he didn't
get clarify everything and he mentioned
is a third level of theta which is the
level of maternal gift and that's why he
Lily said Boris
butterfly touch heaven will make the
brush on Tate it's nice and retainer
show them we don't make the brush a
butterfly a sham Yuri cetera we don't
make the brother but o'clockish and yo
got potato why you could have said
blessed are You Hashem who has given us
the ability to have he gear effort a
butterfly plush and blesses a sham who's
giving us a eurocent inheritance no we
go to the tail you know you quote the
retainer what brother do you make the
shuttle border facto a sham nice st. I
tell you know so it's the idea of my
tongue that's where we're at in the mind
let's go into the mine now
and he elucidates on this third point of
my turner it's about the 12 lines from
the top he said is blocking the line
begins full of hate on the methodical
Millea nation arteaga hey on the Movado
Cemal a whole nation up theta that is
why we make the brother nation i tell
you he gives us the theta Hashem gives
the theta the title penis Matata because
theta is a Meccano gift who could easily
make this robber as it says in the
marriage slave shot 14 maternally a look
there are three gifts that our son gives
to the world
hot IRA my race
the sudden the tail you know the
luminaries the Sun the moon will have
the Sherman Burroughs and the rain
deflation you anime though these three
things
Chabot later came surely schmuck Vegas
car Lucas bets opinion they are three
distinct levels in the very core in
essence don't mix the three the three
aspects of Taylor and explains Marcia of
new Hosking are after the whole imitate
or the statement that the hazael say
prepare yourself to study tater in other
words put forth must much diligence to
learn later he the no violation people
say hot corner Milosh and he clean the
class of the careful in addition to the
interpretation of the word thought of
the word Hosking to mean haha ah
prepare yourself coming from the pro
circuit always quote he claimed the
crowds a la queja prepare yourself
towards Hashem batata game and the
targum says is Kasia the Cibola often
the ricin which means prepare yourself
to receive the study of theta so we see
that the idea of husking how do you
prepare yourself alerted Kato by making
a preparation in the oil Zoe so in
addition to this meaning sort of avoid
the Vidya the dialer in addition to the
meaning that you need to put forth lots
of effort and work lots of work and
effort great amount of work and effort
for the study of theater commercial
papers not banal llena and as a
rebellion the comments on this and this
and this mission empathy office he says
Hostin October called The Meters place
yeah II mean how are you today yourself
to Lynn Taylor summer pastures we said
what to put forth to learn at the heart
of it right to try to understand the
shop
Yunus says look hosta nonsmoker that
meters tables the way of a fair self
understanding Taylor's by having good
Meadows good behavior promote character
today should kill murders are played so
that you should you should learn the
trade of the Sakia and reach l- ha
casinos to the milah to the benefit of
casitas it doesn't mean by the way the
facilities of the Baal Shem Tov
a baby Gator lived many hundreds of
years before the Baal Shem Tov right it
means a minister facility means kind
benevolent character okay so the debate
again is saying that you want to succeed
in your learning of theta that the
effort you put into learning should be
successful work on your character that's
the bravado Uranus interpretation of
that mister empirically others and he
continues by saying before she ain't no
anusha law why do you have to put forth
such effort because this level of theta
is not an inheritance to you the a nerd
a man can my being in a leadership below
debilitated will be deal there is a
level of tighter
that's an inheritance that comes to the
person the light relatively ADEA without
effort and and and bothersome it caused
by the very fact that you are moisture
Myers and you have a bris and you're
born to Jewish parents or you had a
proper conversion whatever the case the
taint is yours that's it you do you
don't you do like it don't like it
I'm sorry you have a gift it's by the
way one of the arguments that I've
always suggested me you talk to people
or not from yet not religious yet
they say what he want from me what he
what he want me to be from what he want
me to believe this what do you want me
to learn to tell you them you said I
don't want anything it's what you have
you were given that you were given out
your new son inheritance
so use your inheritance you're not a
fool if you give them money as an
inheritance boy to your user then you
invest it and you hold it and you think
and you look at it right well the title
is your inheritance so this comes to the
person below K that we again but that's
one level of theta the second level of
theta
Atlas inside of your gear that does
require your gear effort the he may miss
this limit I played a leadership potato
now that ever set introduces hear a howl
of the concept the mitzvah of learning
tater you know we have a mitzvah of
learning it's to not to have knowledge
you dear potato Valhalla dear Bobby gear
doctor your gear comes with effort and
this is important because because we all
fall into a trap we come to a shear we
come to a class we hear a lecture we
hear shear and we don't exert effort
ourselves to make it be to understand
with our own mind in a way it's missing
part of the idea because it's missing
the idea so and at all those that just
read words of Taylor and they don't
understand what they're saying you see
when you quote to the trader it's it
says that your yater
the brother even just by reading the
words of the tate or listening to the
Barclay de right Taylor said itself but
that's not the middle of your dear
sateda your dear sir theta is
specifically a mitzvah that requires
understanding you should understand with
your sample if you're just a parakeet
mimicking what you heard and you don't
understand it in that detail you haven't
done the Mitzvah that's what we're
learning here and how do you come to you
do
be again Africa you gotta Smiths you got
a heart of it you got a toilet
the Yas element little cocktail OE that
this yogya it it makes a difference to
those that hope for it and work for it
the east of Isaiah the man the mad I
agree merely the hospice oh those those
that that are bad iuck they emphasize in
the words of the Cohanim of the trader
they they benefit from it and they and
and it gives them that extra extra
mitzvah idea de la havana Omaha City be
our trader in order to understand the
depths of the trader while today I eight
years through your deal come i'ma your
guide to you mother see because I'll say
York IT boom Excel C so what are the
times I'll say if you say I worked so
hard and understanding and I didn't
figure it out the good mother says
borrow out timing don't trust the person
sure the printer says oh I just read it
and I understand it I'll time and don't
trust the person your guide to you my
saucy time in the person says I put
forth effort and I found the answer time
and do believe him because he put a
forth effort so by the way that was one
of the 12th silk'n that the rebus
suggested all children memorize and if
it's true for children is true for US
adults true too
and why did that ever want every child
to know that because it should be
embedded in the child as the child grows
up and continues developing the
importance of effort if you work hard
you will succeed if you sit back on your
loins you have a big zero let's go
further but remind me of the item
associated the below your gear yes sure
love it was that without yogya
you'll never come to this for the hey
Nisha
if someone was very sharp very witty my
god should have had you for your day or
massive because he's so sharp and witty
he understands the comprehends he has a
good a good cup as we said good head
when we como can exhibit of cloud to
make sure who to my Misha who I'm
pulling you can't compare the head of a
Horus to the head of an uncle so we've
introduced now two types of minds one is
called a cordis sharp and once called
uncle deep since the dead you can't
compare the two the sharp guy yes he
gets it right away sharp but it because
he doesn't have the advantage of Uncas
uncle's coming for the word amok depth
the deepness he doesn't ultimately know
it as strong as good so what this is
what he's saying ends at the end of
cloud there's no comparison at all
between the forest
come on Misha who I'm come to the other
person who's an uncle who takes
everything in a deep way my course of
mitosis appears Yakov so now he goes he
start here dresses the question right
but we but there is a verse that says
made of safety healers Yakov it's an
inheritance
so what's that level of Clara she says
the yes Pina McGregor potato
there is an additional idea and level of
Tina say the previous solution that is a
year Lucia and that regarding that you
don't need to exert effort it's yours
it's yours but guess what just because
you inherited a treasure if you don't
use your brains and you don't know how
to take those funds and it invested you
could end up
losing it all or it just stays there and
it goes on to the next generation
because you did not learn how to take
the inheritance you got and use it
properly and we know so many people who
get inheritance of let's say find out of
money and they aren't they aren't
trained in them investing they
ultimately lose their money
now some people go to an a financial
advisor and you hope that they don't rip
you off and all that but the point is
even that if you're not on top of your
financial adviser and you just trust
them with everything you can make some
very serious mistakes so in other words
this is to separate this is the answer
to the question how to reconcile both
things there is one aspect of theatre
that is a you do show and there's
another aspect that's you give and it's
very practical this if I gave you the
example you go to a seed and you hear it
either see a rooster you want to
understand that are you
you have to reveal this year you have to
reveal it and you have to you have to
study it and and you have to come up
with your own words and to in that shows
that you understand it in other words
you just mimic what you heard you could
be a good parakeet and they're people
you have a good good memory but that's
it if someone will start questioning you
you wouldn't be able to answer them but
but you know all this information well
that's because you have a good memory so
there is the idea of idea of you gear
which the episodes earlier that's the
midst of your dear cetera the midst the
idea of tired of being the Arusha is not
the part of the midst of Udyr Udyr is
with effort with your gear let's go
further the yes Peter Maivia solutions
level of you sure
the Arusha honey next page top of the
3:48 he believes some courtesy
dear cloud there's no effort whatsoever
that's one one one kind of deficiency of
Jerusalem it's given the Jerusha but
it's good for the lazy ones VOCs and
more so the whole her urine stream I'll
be a traitor him shove it we have a
lover if therefore brothers for right
all inherent all inherit excuse me all
inherit according to the tailor they're
all equal all the inheritors the gaim
beauty between us I'm a dish so ok he's
mentioning here DUP so number one write
it down number one a you do sure is
without effort inheritance is without
your effort number two all inheritors
are the same in other words in other
words the father the mother can
legislate I give him 50 $50 have 125
dollars but as far as the inheritance
part you know the same the fact that one
person has a big nose or a small nose or
a good heads or a good job doesn't make
a difference the inheritance inheritance
what yeah okay fine
I'm not talking about the amount of what
each one gets we're talking about the
notion of inheritance the idea of rights
everyone's the same when it comes to the
idea of rights the amount right you said
you only very good that a car gets
double number three three god that's
number three boroughs the gun built a
beauty that he bussiness I made a guess
what
he doesn't have a choice here you don't
have a choice you can scream up and down
if your father and left you over Yahoo
sure you
I don't want anything for you I hate you
your bed you stole the money you're a
goddess
ba-ba-ba-ba-ba we had a terrible Asian
ship I don't need your inheritance well
too bad he left it over for you it's
yours you cannot take the money throw it
out and there in the ocean you can do
whatever you want with it
but it's yours it's not totally but he
does have Moorish there's no bashira
involved inheritance is that clear
ok Oklahoma and as the governor says Oh
amen explain II banila leaders of among
in fo if someone says each plane is a
certain person my son he shouldn't
inherit together with his brothers lay
on the clue she who master I'm Asha
Casas potato because he's making a
condition that violates trader rule
that's the mother in bubble bath sir are
you familiar with that commercial and I
believe that I'm but the Ramban brings
you to that when you make up tonight
when you make a what yeah okay so you do
sure built a penis on my dish right so
the sub so now this ends this ends the
the two levels of Taita
the the level of Arusha that he
explained and the level of your gear and
he answered the question how they're not
a contradiction now he goes to the third
level third level is my ghastly she's a
potato
you know my tongue the third level of
theta is the idea of why the state of my
tongue of a gift then I thought no in
the Bastille
I've read the Vidya
a gift is not for the purpose of work
and effort the Earth's have it's called
kala for Vega if I'm getting something
for the work and my effort then what is
it you need so scar it's a reward hey
left off either in exchange for my work
you work you get paid maternal anus
suffer and my partner is not sorry it's
not a reward so what is this Matunga
so the rebus says the como can
nevertheless and then the bull beliefs
from avoid the cloud you won't get a
mite owner if you do no work at all
become a very famous cuz I'll you guys
should remember this it's very me quote
II loved the of it night it was not sure
if he hadn't done a pleasure for his
soul if he hadn't done something nice
well have a yard lay he wouldn't give it
to him in other words you don't give
gifts to your enemies you don't give
gifts to people who are neutral you give
gifts to people who you like but it
doesn't mean to say that you're giving
him the gifts now specifically because
he did something for you he did nothing
for you now but you have an overall
relationship so comes Hanukkah you sent
the muhammad to give it comes poor him
you something should laugh - why do we
send people who else - it says because
my plot you're giving you want to be
nice you want to show reyes friendship
so on my Tomasello
a gift on one hand it's it's like in
between are you Russa and you give it's
that level of theta it's not that I must
give it to you I don't must give it to
you when you work for someone works for
something you must pay
right you work for an employer the
employer has an obligation to that going
to theta so that's called scart that's
called payment reward right a you do
shell is totally just like we said
whether you deserve it or not you
inherited it
the Matunga is in between if there would
be no relationship whatsoever between
the two people he wouldn't get the gift
he wouldn't give him the gift but
because there is an overall relationship
in a good positive way he gives him a
gift so the level of my plumber is like
an intermediary level between Jerusalem
and yogya clear Moshe my sir Meyers did
you hear me good I want to make sure you
understand my share remember when we
learn we have to understand it's not
just papapapapapap I like a parakeet you
have to understand
okay later and he says now then he says
now the totally between us a nation of a
cait of dye to Jamie says when you do
when the person gives a gift it's up to
the the free will the player of the
giver did no say over Kade of diketon
how see how close he feels to the person
who is giving it to the harder I improve
yes he looked in Billy Kincaid of a vast
nation I'm I thought no we see that
there's a difference in the way the
giver gives the gift of commotion it of
a militia their episodes we fight see
this in actuality the aim that during a
mission way cyclically rasullullah it
you can't compare some who does a
pleasure
he makes clay this rock music makes the
spirit happy in who is or they should be
no you're crazy if it's a stranger or
it's a son or a relative or when someone
does something nice to me there's a big
difference between if it's my son doing
it
my curve or a stranger did is there
Harvey hello that disproves the Levada
play the swath Maxima cover that in
addition to the very fact that something
nice was done for me had a yes killer
for das there is my own feeling towards
the person the totally the Peter Sunde
scene and that does depend on the choice
of the giver in other words in a sense
you're biased right in other words it's
true right we help and we give but most
of the times we help forgive those that
are our children and close to blessed
more than two others that's that's like
a its nature in a way you know in other
words it's it's because the pleasantry
over here is more natural when it's your
own child or your own cut off right but
when it comes to a stranger will give
them but not not with the same in the
same way so we see from all this that
the idea of giving a gift of a Matunga
it is has been it's been is dependent
upon freed the free will of the
individual the giver and now he sums it
up then Cain gave on my Vegas a low so
therefore these three levels came
Caloocan but exiting youngnam they're
very different getting me in the very
essence that totally different three
ways of an aspects of play de hollywood
up the body shine any recaps the bodies
in the first one who wrapped by the way
the Voskhod it comes only through work
and reward payment effort for your work
for sanely the second one being and are
you sure that regarding the inheritance
she bore shall a big year it comes
without effort number two
all the Hawaiian see me suffer and all
the inheritors are equal and three built
a machinist elitist without the choice
of Hira given to the - vastly she and
the third aspect of Tara's maternal a
gift
the truly above hallucination that is
dependent on the Peter of the giver and
this reminds me will conclude with this
of nice story of the phrase of the Bleak
phrase of the bleeding was a very big
topic and in the bleedin and the phrase
of Lublin had a certain custom that when
people came to ask him for sadaqa and it
was always muscle of him coming to the
bleeding he he gave everyone but when a
relative came he gave them more don't
ask me why and how and is that you know
the ultimate way of giving sadaqa that's
that's another discussion and we could
argue it either way but that's not the
point I just want to play this story the
punchline so so uh he came into the
basement dish and he goes over to the
bed and he had heard that the face of
the bleeding will give him more to Dhaka
if he lets the place and know that he's
a relative of his show Malaysia
how are you what's your name what are
you doing and the schmooze and have a
drink so he says the masuleh sets to the
to the phrase of the Rebbe says rather
you know I'm a relative of yours he
looks up he says really I've never seen
you before you're a relative of mine he
says yeah what you're cousins cousins
cousins aunts Bubba's cat somehow was
you know I'm a seven cousin he says wow
wow wow wow wow
so the laser puts his head into his
pocket he takes out and the person's
expecting now an amount that's more than
what he usually gives that the only gift
is really relatives and he gives me the
same amount and and he looks at the fisa
this is an effort but we're relatives
they never said they'd ever said to him
and I be eight when I what I mean
relatives I need my very close relatives
you know because whatever you know it's
a different that's a different thing but
you know a seventh cause he threw
through the world through a cat and a
dog and and and we have and we ate and
has rain together at the table doesn't
make you my relative come on get over it
and the person goes away disappointed
well before he leaves Lube lean to the
next place he has the talent in her like
I just told you in Warsaw and Lublin
Poland it's 3:30 already it's already
getting back she runs into the shoe tada
them in her and the phrases the
everything also with Dominion so amid
lachemann s ray oh and and the laser I'm
sorry the phrase of Davin for the unlit
so he starts small nursery you know the
story right he starts small nest rate
and it says borrow jato Russian McCain
the little kerosene ok Avraham the God
of Abraham and the cake it's called for
the K Yaakov and the guy from the back
of the shoe screams out Iceman I cutters
which means
oh we're related to uh from intricate
Yakov oh really that's me and the K of
Rome but if my god jaco's worth of
Rome's mine yeah I love you see Yakov
Iseman I cut off and he said he was
saying to the face of the plane if I run
you through Yaakov are our relatives
that you're surely my relatives F this
one that's right he gave him more money
so so what we're talking about you know
relatives and you should know this is
it's so true it's so true because I'll
tell you my father when he came from
marriages row he came penniless because
on the boat I think I told you once they
so might say that my grandfather gave
him money they stole his money and if
not forget so Berger the famous
sacre-coeur said who saw this lavalla to
buckler diverting and learning he was so
impressed he gave him some money and he
gave him a coca-cola and he said that he
has one request that when it comes to
Brooklyn he says go see the sock forever
which he didn't go but he happened to be
he worked in the sacrum at Mozza bakery
and Williamsburg in the sapphir ever
walked in so he fulfills the condition
of Kessel burger but but then like my
father came was penniless right that
he's trying to start a life so he had
all of our relatives most of our
relatives cept my grandfather came to
Canada the thousand families very big in
Canada so he went up to Canada and the
same thing happened all of a sudden he
goes to this rail of that relative and
he says I need help I have nothing I
have nothing you know and they weren't
so forthcoming because who are you Oh
our grandfathers and great-grandfather's
were brothers Romania one hundred and
fifty years ago
no so big deal so this story is not just
a bubble mindset it's very real in daily
life and we have to remember I think the
punch life in the place
the bling is that every year relative hi
the place that had another another
Mahalo I don't understand the frankly
whenever I say the story I'm kind of I I
don't understand it it's a good story
I want hand but I don't understand that
then especially such exotic why he had
that there must have been some spiritual
reason that I don't know about and it's
not my business but but I was trained
and we were trained that every single
year does you're cut off and that you
should look at every year like he's your
own brother and sister have a good day
everyone's Igesund
it's not horrible
