Simcha # 2 - Davening requires Organization - Patience - Clear Words - Translation - Ivdu 1938

recap briefly we're learning this mimer that was set in 1938 and dawned on me this morning you know the best thoughts come to a person when they're in middle or dominic anyway um it's possible i didn't look up the dates yet that this mimer was said around the time when it was kristallnacht no what wha wha isn't crystal knock wasn't kristnach started november of 1938 november 1938 i was thinking of that yesterday also 1938 hit me as a uh important change of uh of gears for jews in europe crystal not and the the ghettoization process and the different stuff okay and this one one minute one minute and this mimer was said hi sarah of 38 which i believe when i'll check out the date it's november of 38th november 9th oh you what anyway it's in the it's in november probably so it's just interesting to me that the the previous rabbit of joseph yitzhak um the sixth laboratory set a mimer in uh in poland about that uh about a topic that kind of is an antidote to the to the disturbances in greater europe okay so what did we learned yesterday and just to recap crap recap briefly come before him there no no with song and dance and there ever the previous rabbit says the implication of the verse is such that when will you experience true if you're if you're in a state of simcha therefore he questions what does it mean to be in a state of simcha what is simcha how do i get the simcha what is it and this is the thrust and theme of the mimer but as in in chabad style of hasidis it's only going to get more intellectual as we get along i went through the mimer yesterday so you know we're getting the easy stuff in this first paragraph but then from paragraph from say a paragraph to and on it really starts being very analytical not capitalistic analytical and this is healthy hasidis so i'm just giving you a full warning that you got to put on your thinking caps more and more as we continue but he said the following he said that in order to appreciate simcha we must lay the groundwork and his foundational thought is the following and i found it to be fascinating and that is that the whole concept of out varema mate which is we learned in pity obviously three pillars the world stands a lot of sodium acts of mitzvos and the question is why means benevolent acts even if they're not a mitzvah so how do you put the two together and and yani pointed that out in his question yesterday and i responded that here he doesn't mean camilla's hassodim as just milos hassadin in piercy office he does but but the way that rebbe brings it here in the mimer he's defining him as myself and his logic is the following mitzvahs arose are an opportunity mitzvahs are an opportunity mitchells are an opportunity did you ever think about that it doesn't say because he wanted to get make us meritorious with mitzvahs he gave us mitzvahs it doesn't say the word nassan it says hereby he gave us a lot a multitude rebui rebuy that makes the concept even stronger because hashem sees mitzvos as a benevolent act that is the foundation of the mitzvah so he showers us with that opportunity if he were to only give us a limited amount of mitzvahs and the language would be no san lohan and not here below him then then the implication would be he's giving us just the right amount of medicine why because it's tit for tat you want to make panosa here is a mitzvah you want to make uh you want to have a real long life here's a mitzvah you want to have success with is a mitzvah this is the complete opposite of what mixes are really all about and just for a moment because this is very important very important because there's a big issue in the community in our communities what's segulo say this for this segura say this with this gula as a general rule you should know as a general rules don't you know as a general in chabad we don't we don't really put emphasis on segulas and not only khabad i would say in brisk in certain and probably more the lit [ __ ] oriented uh you know way of observing hashem there's little pain they pay little attention to ghoulish but i'm saying chabad which is a hasidis also doesn't make a big deal about schoolers and this you have in the rebels letters so i'm not going to say never but as a general message when someone comes to me you know based on what i learned from the rebel is you know you got to work hard and invest and use your brains and pray to hashem and do mitzvahs and give to dhaka and you'll have the same as as gula nevertheless now so why is that why why is that because the whole idea of a mitzvah is an opportunity what is this ghoul us gula is one step removed from a reward so we have three things listen to this heaven we have a reward tit-for-tat you work you get paid how much do you work how many hours that's how much you get paid you work overtime you get twice as much the taxi now just roll it takes you after eight o'clock in the evening or whatever charge you twice as much right because it's not the normal time to work that's called reward it's not a gift that's what i charge you like it or not you don't want my service no problem i'm not taking you that's called a scar then we have and there's one concept of a mitzvah called sky mitzvah a reward for mitsub then we have a goola when you do a mitzvah it's a remedy it's a schoola for a certain issue so for example um the the midst of shiloh khan right the terrorist says you'll have a richest yeoman now i want to ask you a question is that the reason to be making the misra i'm going to do the midst of shalom because i want to live to 180 120 195 i'm 65 70. i want to live another 35 years let me find some schoolers out there to get me uh insurance it's an insurance policy and and the fact is the holy trader says so what's the shot the shot is the toyota is saying that this mitzvah carries along with itself as gula called arika's yummy but why should i do the mitzvah because of the arrika's yam absolutely not i should do it because it's the will of god to do shiloh or honor your parents not because it makes sense to honor my parents and not because i'm going to have a rehearsal it's god's will that i should give honor to my parents whether i like it or i don't i understand it or i don't right but the torah says of course the toyota says that but the traitor says that as a torah sanctioned segura if you do the mitzvot for the right purpose and if you do the mitzvah for the wrong purpose i'm not sure i don't you know we have to look into the first him if someone let's say does the mitzvah of respecting their parents for an ulterior motive will they still get the mitzvot of uh will they get the benefit of arrika's young men it could be they will because of tyra cesso but in spirit it's really shabby you know it's like it's like you know um you force yourself into a situation you don't really want to be there and while you're there you benefit from it so what do we see that the second idea in mitzvos is segula and then comes the third idea the third idea is that mitzvahs are an opportunity and a gift that hashem gave us because god loves us and he decided he wants to give it to us and this we call pure camilla's heset right abby what's up miller's crescent i don't owe you anything you owe me nothing i don't know you you don't know me but nevertheless i want to be kind to you because i have a streak of kindness in me and i want to be glamor that's what it is and by the way that's why the game is it says is banelashirim or bailanim both to the wealthy and the poor sadaka the obligation of giving charity of tsudaka is only to aneen to the poor but camilla's crescent is someone who's cash you know cash strap he doesn't have money liquid he has a lot of money but it's tied up in investments and stocks and real estate whatever else and now he needs a loan you say you need a loan you need a loan and you go tell him go sell your property that's not your business of course he you know he should do that but he can't now so right now you give him a communion and that's what part of the game is funds that we find in our communities are geared towards even people who do have funds but at this time they're tied up for whatever reason so camila's it is not obligatory it is totally voluntary and benevolent gives us an opportunity and that's why and that's why when you think about this then you should become the happiest person every morning i have an opportunity to bind myself to hashem through my film every morning i have an opportunity to think about the greatness and all and awesomeness of god as i as i make the break of the thrill every morning i can give seducti to a pushka helping another jew so that's that's the deeper the deeper idea of a mitzvah this is the track that that is on in this mimer let's not continue page um uh 114 115 uh yeah 114 at the bottom okay uh it's four lines from the bottom the last two words hey we have a a new uh a new cover here i've run bell do you have the mind where you want us to to what's happened to you nice thank good good uh by the way i've run if you have questions you want to interject or comment it's an interactive share okay so feel free feel free please okay four lines in the bottom two last two words that's why generally speaking mitzvahs are called the avoid now he's going to the second category okay avoid what is avoided this refers to the sacrifices of the now the act of fear of the bonus now we know we don't have yet the basa amigdas we're waiting for avi to take us on a tour of the base amignos until that moment feel a prayer substitutes for sacrifice for this specifically refers not to the study of tita and not to what the doing of the middle of mid-swiss but more more so the surface of the heart avenue this if how do i know of the what is considered a service of the heart happy amen we say zootrillo this is i want you to underline this put quotes around it and and wedge it in your head i feel it's a beautiful summation of what davening should be and is thila is the avodah imhalev with the heart in the heart yeah listen right you the instrument used for davening is the heart and this is very important just for a moment people a lot of people dabbing with their cup with their head they know the meaning of the words but it's all very organized and calculated the heart is not neither says the word slumped it's a flop means flamed the heart is not on fire right you take a look at the weight of slave macaron it was a heart he allowed his heart to to be expressive that is tefila and that's why he succeeded so much that he was the person that probably succeeded more than anyone else in in warming up a generation to davening is because he emphasized the heart and believe me he was a terrorist talmud i'm a great one see this gemara everything he could have easily intellectualized villa he didn't do that rather he took the knowledge that he had and he filtered it through the heart and that's why the previous it happened happens to be it absolutely was very much a class of the previous surah as we know the the heart that's the tool if you're not on you're not using that tool you have the wrong tool for dominique and that's why your dabbing won't be successful and that's why you say i'm bored it's boring i don't want to die let me get out of here already let me finish because you're not using the left you're using your heart and number two ubertoka live not only is the instrument the kale in the heart but where does feeler reach inside your heart inside the heart is where feeler reaches and motivates the emotions of the heart so that's why this these few words here behind the tv is very the surface of the heart when you're plugged in and your heart's plugged in it gives no same vitality highest to your study of tolerance during the mixes so yes i from this three there's three um pillars upon which the world sits and stands and exists although that's true but it's the element of avoider surface of the heart that gives highest in torah mitzvahs in the other two says that when you say avoid service work it denotes automatically it means automatically and we'll see why soon and it's so important that aveda be with simcha we know this from the fact that when we're missing in service and avoid the sieve is a prosecution since you didn't serve hashem with joy and gladness of the heart in every matter volvade you will automatically be serving your your your enemy in other words in other words what's the understanding of this verse velvet listen to this not delegates i have an option to serve hashem it's better to serve hashem if i don't say i'm still serving god comes along the arizona there's an interpretation by the way from the holy ariza and that esau says it's wrote in tanya too that is says ins because he defines he translates here as because takas means instead he says because since you didn't serve hashem in every manner of your life including in your mix was the result will be that automatically you will serve your enemy let me give you an example to this it says by joseph but her boy rake ain't ba mayan they threw yosef into a pit there's no water there let me ask you if someone's throwing a pit there's no water is the is is it the end of his of his life no he might dehydrate it's uncomfortable he's thirsty comes along rashi and rashi and the verse says when we'll get to it in in hummus you'll see it there in rashi rashi says that the implication of aimbot mayan there's no water is but snakes and scorpions were there in other words when there is no water it's not that the pit is empty and you can exist you're in deep trouble if there's no water because what there is when there's no water snakes and scorpions that your life is in danger this is brought in the swarm both the hasidis and musser with the following you've heard it just to repeat to refresh our memory [Music] mayam as we have citations refers to toyota but her boy rake the bar the the pit refers to the cup the person's head like a pit right like a hole there's brains inside there's stuff inside but if the cup is empty if the mind is empty of torah you have scorpions snakes and scorpions there that are gonna plague you it's not that i can have an empty mind from tata and you know what i'll be neutral it doesn't work that way not in this life as long as you your mind is not occupied with tata so then you gravitate towards michigan all kinds of mesh but the gravitation is automatic because trader is not there that ever says the same thing here quoting the arizona regarding simcha when you lack hashem automatically you're going to serve your enemy meaning and he's going to explain later in the mimer who the enemies are what he refers to left towards the end of the mimer we got quite a way to get there but the nakuda is a very important decoder you have to fill your mind with toyota and you have to be in a state of simcha by working on simcha because if you don't you end up being depressed upset thinking all about yourself it's my i have all these terrorists i repeat what i heard to them he said this he said it is in betrayment of dollar davis when i was there about four years ago in in one of the shows there in the other ramat and he said to the heaven it was about 50 60 um not lebanese somewhere but not he says if i wake up in the morning i think about myself i get very down family issues you know even though he himself is you know like a holy guy but you know you know how it is we have issues of life children grandchildren prognostic community but when i don't think about myself and i think about the other i have a way to be baseball so when when we talk about being basim we'll talk more about this later in the moment there are ways of accessing simcoe but one thing's for sure if you don't work on having simcha and by the way understand working on having simcha is half of the cure even though you don't yet have the simcha but it bothers you that you don't have the simcha and you think about it and you discuss it and you try to do this you try to do this to find simcha that is very healthy even though you don't yet necessarily have the state of simcha so when you do that then you will not automatically serve the enemy but if not says that ever quoting the verse in the theater but sort of let's continue we must understand i mean i spoke a lot of this out but that is asking the question what is the virtue of simcoe haley could avoid the he has bonus ballicos isn't the primary aspect to understand and reflect on godliness is the first thing that a person must do in their service to god is he calling the cross prepare yourself you have to be prepared for prep how do you do that a person must know first and foremost and first that what was named who is he daviding before well commandment as the saying goes no before who you're standing the later may mayana thrilling you have to know what darkening is about the thriller voices davening consists of words with praise and thanksgiving what god did for you for the person in the past and also of course he said islam david is about requesting pleading and asking for mercy but masha khashoggi with what's missing what i have what i'm lacking in my life he says that when a person for example speaks to another person he's equivalent great gazette he speaks to himself he talks to him but he doesn't listen to what's coming out of his mouth rambling and he talks quick very very quick in addition to the fact that the person who's listening to the person speaking quickly will not pay attention to him because he can't understand him but to begin with he's turned off to his quick quick speech eloise he'll yakshavu he'll consider the one speaking so quickly because he would never speak this way you speak articulately and and and every words enunciated etc i should be asked because this person doesn't know what himself is saying because he's speaking so quickly and because swallowing words imagine the same person will come before a minister and a ruler thanking him for the goodness that he's done for him or he he has a request from the ruler or a minister the adapter is actually he'll speak in a manner it's very quickly not even hearing what he himself is saying because he's swallowing the words he the laser will virtually ishmael's devotion not only will his request not be heard by the minister and ruler eloises you're going to share your caller and say get out of here he'll chase him away he's okay it's not this is not normal specifically before hashem whether he has a pleading and a request of god and asking for god's mercy julius villasay miss udaires his feeling must be organized number one make a number one over there number one organized le vatejo is number two to express the words calmly and patiently missinut and number three over suffer with a clear dictum laws of not only does his his own ears have to hear what he's saying and the goblin boy his hot mind and his heart must also be attentive to peter shamila's to the meaning of the words that he's saying this is what we call a basic dominant basic now that ever says we'll stop here we'll stop here we'll continue actually you have a few we'll just finish the paragraph now he says icar not just basic trilo but the primary aspect of davening here his burden is its meditation by subject silly kids reflection of god's greatness ah you say it but say to this until he will be aroused without the yiddish having the love and fear for god so now he concludes his question if that's the case his question is why is it relevant whether you have somehow not do you understand what you're doing did you prepare yourself are you being articulate are you not swallowing the words that's added the you know mustard mustard and ketchup to the food you you will you are serving your enemy and then that second question is who are these enemies that we're referring to so basically this paragraph leaves us with the two questions why is simcha absolutely necessary not a option but you must have simcha when you learn when you do admirals and yeah yeah listen what do you want to say yeah you were talking about uh for a heart by feeling in the heart so when when you meet somebody you haven't seen for a long time but that's a long time or or when you get a flight when you get a fight [Applause] you know you you remind me of your sin there was a famous chabad his name was rabbi he was like the father figure of the drison family and and he came from a city over there uh in russia with india called the mayor so he was you know he he learned to lubavitch and he had self-sacrifice he made yeshivas during stalin's time he paid his dues big time and davis to help that he survived he passed away at 90 years old in 1990. anyway so this would always say when he would take a little mask and his heart used to it's a flocking it started to flame up he would say then the shrimmer pump it the soul is pumping you know in other words my heart pumping is one thing he says but it's the south in my heart that's really pumping so when you use the word when you said that reminded me of the pumping of the heart that abrama yeah would talk about okay any any other questions or thoughts anyone would like to uh ask or share or anything okay if not we'll be back in the sh yes so they started in the show after chakras it's called after david every morning it's called a um what is it called circle of um gratitude gratitude circle okay sits around and talks about what they're you know what they feel grateful for their families and this and that so like today the first time i joined and they started a few months ago it was unbelievable it was like mamish like everybody's sharing and it was beautiful five minutes after david i i highly recommend it whoever could come it's like usually

glad to say something you're you're you're all you're we you're their energizer all and you're all alone in germany and we spoke you missed it but well velvet this mimer was this available this mime was set in november of 1938 when kristallnacht broke out you know when he said it was november 9th 1938 and this mine was set highest 1938 and i see even though set in poland not in germany where you know it broke out and all that whatever but uh i think there's some connection there how everything all right everything all right available yeah just i say don't worry about 35 45 50. worry about five minutes take five minutes and that's a long time [Music] uh there's no excuse the trunk and the cougar will wait five more minutes whether it's at yeah exactly whether it's whether the kid is running no if you hold yourself back five minutes because you're diving a little longer and thinking about hashem and trying to get your heart and and you missed the boiling hot google trust me that you have more scar and you're you're closer to hashem that way than than jumping to the google and the same is coming home and your wife will resp and your wife will respect you if you really are diving a little longer and that's why you're a little delayed and your guests will respect you listen i i've done it so it's it's proven it's a fact you know it's it's what it's when we mess around and waste time or just sit around and drink and hakka china that you know this is not appropriate get get home and you have a family and and be a mensch but if you're if you're with kedusha and especially this five minutes ima over toka lev with the heart and in the heart you i say it's a cathartic experience you you'll after those five minutes you'll say wow wow it was elated you know like
