as we continue the preparations for giml
tamas the Reb calendar what was the's
calendar people ask what type of
calendar did he have let me tell you
what type of calendar he had and I heard
this from Rabbi mosa hen the dean of
theab Yesa marown the rabinal College of
America who said it in the name of Rabbi
khov the Reb's closest secretary who
told him this and he shared it with us
at ofan and he said that by the his
calendar began and ended from yat till
yat yat is the day when his
father-in-law the
six passed away it was his
yard the on that day started his cycle
for the year not R not y not not
but
onat if this is so for the re we as
today understand that this is so for us
for his own yard site which is giml
tamas yesterday in a dagger went through
my heart when I
heard the B Fila the one
announcing the upcoming month it was
shabas
shabas it's t in yish we say say of
their
V what is tamas tas's son Thomas is
heat Thomas is outdoors Thomas is the
Catskills Thomas is the
mountains ladies and gentlemen Tam is
giml
and what is
giml giml is the day when the cycle
starts new it's
our but not like ra in which we dress a
certain way we act a certain way we must
be in a certain box and
behavior listening to the shaer saying
to Hill him
for some it's tears for others it's
happiness all kinds
of
conditions gim is
conditions what do I mean it's
conditionalist every
ye that has a desire to connect to the
rebba to this
sadic says to themselves andas
that my calendar for the year begins
today with these positive
resolutions and when we talk about
that's the Hebrew word for
resolution it's not like lail a New
Year's
resolution it's not even like a rashash
resolution it's a a resolution that is
condition
lless and has no resp
restrictions you don't have to feel
boxed
in you can come with your
suspenders and you could
come with however you
dress and say there's a re of their
V the
re the sadic the M of Our
Generation continues to influence us
daily
and an Our details from where from on
high the moment mhia will come and
there'll be the resurrection of the dead
and the Reb and everyone else will rise
we'll have him back theof gashi in a
physical body seeing his face and
hearing his his talk his speech but
until then the operation has shifted for
now why send an email to God if that's
not good enough do a fax if a fax is too
old to
Instagram I don't care what your age is
and what your background
is the fact is that R is spirituality is
a reality more than the physical
material material reality why because
the physical material reality is here
today and gone
tomorrow it doesn't
last wealth doesn't last houses don't
last investment don't
last and many and other things that we
consider important and special don't
last you're not going to the Grave with
your money it ain't
happening if you give
Saka
and people appreciate it you
help desperate people broke
people you help an institution a Yeshiva
a girl school build you build a
mikah you help people with food whatever
the tadu is whatever the charity is
whatever the good cause is that
lasts so here it is
giml the choice is in our hands do we
want to join the Reb's calendar or do we
want to have our own
calendar and it's very hard to have that
paradigm shift to
change from thinking
oh those days the days of war and
absolutely those are days of war and
those are so powerful and those are
necessary but
remember it's a certain cut it's a
certain style many people
today are losing their feeling and
connection
to Judaism to
Taya to tradition why because they don't
find it
relevant ladies and
gentlemen if you go along with the Reb's
calendar y Judaism is so
relevant more than it'll ever be because
the re teaches us how to live t Judaism
and God today in 2024
but you need to study his
teachings and more importantly than
studying is implementing them in your
own life and your family life so what is
the bottom line from all of this it's 30
years since the de yard site
giml giml 1994 it's upcoming in a week
or so you
giml
2024 30 years it's a milestone what's
the Milestone what am I celebrating a
milestone of
death so we know that a yard site is an
alyah is an
Ascension it's an opportunity that never
before was on Earth especially 30
years
the the Ascension the alyah the
opportunity is beyond anything else and
if we go along with this attitude and we
understand it and we learn about it and
we faing about it and we share it with
our family family children
grandchildren and we instill in them the
importance of writing to the
Reb learning his talks his myor his
discourses his letters going to 770
where he daved for 1941 to 1994
he DED in 770 and we D in 770 pick your
choice Upstairs Downstairs left wing
right wing Center forward makes no
difference in 770 somewhere and we go
toes his holy resting place at the
ohel and we pour our heart
out whatever it is and we share with him
good news that abber told me once when I
had an issue in California with a with a
a zoning issue and my father and I came
to theb for bras and theb gave us bras
theb answered me in
letters and then we had Victory and one
morning I remember I get a call from RAB
label Groner and he says did you write
to the Reb and ask him for bras when you
had the difficult times and you didn't
know if you're going to win or
lose the court issue I said yes
soab Groner said to me isn't it only
right that you tell the Reb thank you
and let him know the result I said yes
so why didn't you he asks me I said I
messed
up I forgot that those words forget
forgot terrible
words the cause of all problems is I
forgot and RAB Groner told me the RE
just told me this is what he told
me I just came came from him and he said
why didn't I hear
from from RAB
doin that they won the court case
somehow the word got to
him Andor he had Divine prophecy which
of course he did whatever I I don't know
and that's not my
department but grona told me clearly I
remember
this he chastised
me the wants to hear good news not only
sour news so you come gim thas you go to
the O you go to 770 or you're in your
house you can't get there and you think
about giml thas and you want to do
something because the calendar starts

for some aspect of yish K of Judaism of
t ofus with 30
people it doesn't mean you they're going
to become religious it doesn't mean
