Tanya #33 Eating Properly is Expected & Possible - Rabbi Chaim Dalfin

foreign [Music] the various forms of tikkon for different transgressions but the that's only a sidebar to really the the ikritical to the main point of the chapter is how do you deal with food indulgences in food Indulgence in speech and things like that and at the end actually he's going to talk about secular wisdom which is very very important for us for us to discuss because we have here all uh everyone here has and myself included I went to high school you went to college the Reba went to college so we have to re-look at this issue and I hope to tackle that on the Monday Monday next week I don't think we'll get to it today but until now that episode that when you eat food that's permissible kusher it's kosher and you abuse the food by overeating and indulging and on and on having a Taiwan Indulgence that energy you and your energy are lower to the domain of what we call sheller's Clippers at the maze but there's something else that happens it becomes your flesh you know it's like we think oh we just put it in our mouth and yeah maybe we indulge then uh we'll we'll we'll we'll we'll do chuva for that my dear friends in a way it's too late it's never too late but in a way you got a piece of meat on your body that has part of that type of and that's the question how do you how do you Rectify that that's what we're going to learn today it's an amazing thought that the other is going to say that there's a way of even rectifying a past situation that's part of your body let's learn inside now we're on paint youth gimbal and we're come welcome three four lines to the top we're just gonna review we learned that we really read it but we're gonna review again before this energy is brought back to its place of holiness it's right now in the domain and even after it's brought back up because there is a Remnant left in the body why and he gives you a reason here hillelice liaise is because it's a reason because from every food matter and drink matter NASA take it look at the we're taking immediately not tomorrow but immediately when you digest it right it becomes immediately damn blood or Buster and flesh MIP soroy of your flesh it becomes part of your bones and your and your body so therefore there's a Remnant there says therefore our bodies will need the spiritual rectification called the banging of the of the of the of the Grave we're not going to go into the details what that is but what just it's a it's a it's a spiritual process to purify to clean well the Tara and to purify me too much the body from its contamination that it received from the benefit of the food that was kosher but was eaten with an Indulgence for the the shama to go back to Hashem in the most pure way it needs to have foreign which we spoke about earlier right when you eat something not kosher you're dragging and we discussed this in the last year very important your drought we're dragging our nepheus who was neutral into the realm of goyaskite which is Shaden in the Russian Hussain we're bringing a shindalid that's that's a that's not Jewish it's a scary thought we're Jews guess what and our enough we learned is part of the Jewish DNA instructor it says Thou did every year but when you eat today if knowingly remember we discussed that knowingly then you've you've slept your Jewish Obama's into the world of gaiuskite and that's a whole different issue but here he says no here since we're talking about something that's kosher just that it was eaten for taiva Hilo is this clear over here it's only a matter only you have to have rectification people that care for you need to be cleansed to go back to the original state and Gane didn't know that but it was only shading you dying only a Jewish Shin ballet that wrapped itself around your big your your nesham and again what's the reason why it's only Uranus in a shading you're dying and not shading because it's kosher versus not kosher is that clear before I go on I have to make sure you you know is that clear you want to ask me something okay alien Kane now here Dr lever throws out another another bomb another revolutionary thought I could take I could run to the outlet and kiss him for what he did here he's so delicious unless you're someone that's never had Hannah satisfaction from the world we live in like known as Robin now my friends when's the last time you met someone who was a little bit like an albino Kurdish I mean it's pretty it's pretty hard to find uh your average uh Jew on the street to betshepish Mayor Sharon Borough Park or Wyoming that's like so you have that once so I hear you so the question that you have to ask yourself when you learn these words in Tanya what is that ever mentioned it this Tanya is written for being a name for the average potential person not for sadikin so telling me yayness don't answer the question because I'm not the laborator and I don't think you're the love of it should ever so so so so so if he mentions it it has to somehow apply to us and that's really what we want to discuss now how is this line relevant to us explained it to us and he explains it like this if you look into the gemara it's a gamara this this citation if you look into the reference of Tanya is a gamara speaks about Russia brings it remember the Rashi that that with asaph asaph always had brings the The Mattress gemara that he always had until what's new and who was the Roman Emperor at the time antoninus yeah they call him in in philosophy Marcus Aurelius okay thank you thank you very much so Rashi says they both had always the you know the best foods on the table even though it was out of season let's remember that Rashi it's a kimono so what's the shot like us like just for a moment I don't want to get into this I came to shul I doubt and I still dive in bar Hashem Purim the the first minions it was seeking because then I have the rest of the day and I came to shoe there yesterday I saw Hala that's almost as tall as I am and only one part of it was cut off and the rest was sitting on a crate outside waiting for the garbage or maybe for someone to take it and and I said to myself people in Ukraine don't have what to eat and look look look look what's going on over here anyway so when you said that Hillel that's what it reminded me of anyway get back let's get back to the subject so what do we see from that good mother what do we see from that Komodo it's not that that didn't have access to the best of foods he had access to the best of foods at all times but and he ate it it's not that he didn't eat it when the governor says velvil that he had access to that food that means that he he and his family and his friends ate that food otherwise it's like telling me Oh I have this piece of art and it's locked up in a room and no one ever looks at it so big deal or a stock that's worth so much and you never redeem okay you know I mean it's nice to leave over to your kids and grandkids and friends but there's no Hannah no rabbana but there had no other satisfaction that he had from the kashmiris was the shame sham Mayim and that answers the question you need if you eat that the shop is chilling you know the English shoppers that's what you hear out here Enoch Shabbos ain't Shabbos you want to have you they have the hasidim have aian and sweebles eggs and and onions and Shabbos that's something that the hasidim generally have or powerful right I heard the other day why are they serve powerful because to tell you that what happened before is far Fallen is this word meaning either it means it's it's too late farfallen or it means it's like wiped away so eat and Shop is powerful I think somebody told me this someone told me this weiner shop is far full to say that what we did during the week is over my friends it's over if you eat Shoppers like I eat if you stuff yourself with tiger of the Firefall and the air in between you're one big egg and onions and Firefall and you're about tiger it it it it's silly it's silly to think otherwise it's just silly it's it's it's it's false tied up I'm sorry to say that and if you look at the Sati Kim overall the lady was Antarctica too had an avoid of stuffing some food and that's that's an exception I can't you know but overall take a look at not just the red but take a look at other Kim the bells are the the all the sadikim they had a little bit the rest they gave away no one was indulging in food I eat Shabbos stuff yourself no so that's what we're learning over here Kurdish and by the way nebulance explained why doesn't why does the Alton ever choose the words like our holy River kaddish if if it refers to behuda hanasi right who did the prince so why doesn't doubt that episode because he wants to elude to us that this is shy for us because he's a rabbit for us all his rabbenu it's none of you who that Mercy the the Israel since he's been with Arab he's our teacher it means it applies to us and how and how the answer is by eating it like and that's why doubt that ever brings it let's go back to the language elim came unless you eat this food Mission he didn't have any satisfaction outside of China like I've been recordis and we could do that and we could do that why just one more second I'll take your point as I said in the last few weeks and during the shooting of these ideas if we're encouraged to imp to have food to have intimacy to have other types of but to do it in the Holy way to do it will shapes your mind that's the whole structure and that makes us different to have the you know Zen Buddhists and all kinds of philosophies and ideologies and religions where there's the the you know Peak experience of of of Nirvana Grace or whatever you could ask Hilo maybe more about those things he's knows more about it than I do but you know the idea was like to be separate you know the holy cow and Hinduism I don't want to go into all these things the point is for us the greatest thing is to sneak into your rabbi's room your rabbi's room to see how it's intimate when his wife says someone will say that's a voyeur that's a that's a real Schmutz the Camaro says it I don't say it the gamara says it and why is the good mother saying it the mother's preaching being a lawyer no the mother says you have to learn how to do such a Mitzvah of intimacy which is really goshmias in the Holy way with learn from yerebi now you can't just be in the room it's private so you sneak under the bed no he's thinking the closet we're not suggesting this to anyone but the concept and that's God forbid you know everything today he's blow taken out of proportion to putting cameras and all these things it's it's it's it's illegal and disgusting and you know but we're talking about this idea of using kashmirs for the same shamayam hey what's your turn yeah [Music] I have a question problem with this because Rubino colors he said this on the last day of his life you know Hillel says in the Mitch now I'll tell me about because when I take on this idea that I'm eating like yeah there's a part of me a convincing part of me that said like uh I may have I may have uh I may have an intention like that I do have an attention like that but I have many other mixed intentions so uh so Lakota this idea that it's of the example of Romano college is that's problematic for me because yeah maybe a person could say that about on the last day of their life like uh you know I'm I'm I Never Had Enough from anything in this world I'm going out with my fingers raised in that way but uh I would be concerned about hillel's admonition and percivals don't don't think too highly of yourself uh throughout your life okay I hear your point it doesn't say here or in the gamara that you shouldn't be concerned about hillel's concern it he he didn't say this about himself the gamara is saying that that this one would say it he said it on the last day of his life yeah but he didn't he did but he didn't say it he he then say it with in a bragging way he was saying it like listen you know I I live with my life and I and I had the best of the best and and Hashem I was I was able to eat do it I mean you know he's not bragging why do you have to say that he's bragging and boasting but but talking but I would be concerned about I wouldn't say that about him but I'd be concerned if I was talking to myself if I was saying to myself I'm eating this yeah right right so say that right so how much I meant right you're right you're right and but and great point and and that's the right attitude we just said that balance is relevant for us daily in other words if a person works on eating something like now by the way it could be done and when you by the way and when you think that way you'll eat less you'll eat the more the right food and you won't indulge as much but at the same time you say look you know I I I still have some tiva there that's fine that's fine the alternators point I'm glad you brought this up the Alton at this point is one that could the Hillel of course we can't be out of being on college but he's saying is the idea of La shame shamayam is not a foreign idea to the to the average Jew in the Jewish experience if you invest in that avoida that's all so I mean you're picking up on the the statement of Hillel your namesake you know don't trust in yourself and hear this I I hear it I hear it and it's a good point that you make about the last day I didn't see or hear from you all a comment on that which is interesting to think about it to look up to see if there is because that's a very good point but but the I believe the the the flow of the section here and Tanya is emphasizing de la shame Shema the shame and that that you should know when you say you're who you're kidding us who aren't kidding it's not it's not so it's not it doesn't have to be that way in other words to say that word yeah then if someone convince themselves they're very foolish but to say that I tried not indulging and I tried eating with a brother and I ate slower and I spoke differently Toyota and there are things that a person can do in their gashments and I've told you this all along all this year and over the years the whole idea in every Mitzvah and that's why Dalton says it here and guess what that's the only way to get rid of that point I didn't mention yet what he's saying here is Ella mkane only you know there's one way of avoiding otherwise everyone's getting hit with that camera the answer is if you will emulate the same shamayam that he will so excelled in and when we emulate it even you know one time at another time naturally if someone has perfected their life where like a Hillel then they're not getting at all but let's take per item this food item I could eat it the same tiger I can eat it Stam and I can eat it or I can eat it so on this particular food item if you eat in the same shamayam for this you're not getting that's an amazing thing like we know the diff you know one second like we know how many times I get into camera it's not a it's not about how many times yeah the Goof the Goof our goof it's like you have a few doctors here never someone's very sick and you see them suffering and suffering every day they suffer less is a big deal a big deal so if you have one less time to kill that cover it's a big deal that's what he's saying here yes you live the the word about stand up was not an emphasized fasting people take me on fasting though right the many of my relatives have passed Mondays and Thursdays for during the daylight hours and like that but was that was the idea of fasting uh be you know sort of before the about 10th of emphasis a way of kind of minimizing the damage of people such yeah yeah I think I think I'm gonna do my suffering while still in the body I think there was that approach by special in the cubalin yes absolutely and that's why the outer Revenue what does the outlet say just yesterday another doctor asked me about this just yesterday a good friend he said he sent me the page and says Dr Debbie says that although to ducka giving up to duck replaces should rep will replace fasting nevertheless should fast and he's asking me shitty fast Monday and Thursday and and you know and and all those things I said that that ever said I I could say is I would ever said that we are you know weaker than even doubted ember's time and therefore it's preferable not to do it but but I said to him if a person has a personal feeling any and he's strong and he's not going to do less work in his office and not learn less because he's fasting you can get the best of both worlds give to Docker fast learn the word no problem understand I think I told you a friend of mine was was doing a business deal with their summer farm someone who worked for the Teva Pharmaceuticals in Arches Rose and they went out to eat you know in the Renaissance one of the hotels my friend comes and he's sitting down they order to eat breakfast and the person's wearing the keeper through God foreign now that's wonderful I mean that's that's special that's special but overall I would say that the outer and then the Reba kind of you know change the direction um but a hundred percent of the citizen fast came along and felt that the extremity of fasting where it Disturbed your day and Disturbed your voice Hashem and you couldn't function and you lay down to sleep two three hours and all that and your ice Mensch what's the purpose so when Ghazal tell us the fast we exert ourselves and if now we give to duck instead but to answer your question the answer is yes yeah I know I know people who give amounts of sudoka based on the amount of fast that the Elton ever brings in in in in igares I think racism based 252 and they give that amount of sudoka specifically to atone for the sins only problem is you have to know how many times you did that sin you know okay let's learn a little more and then and then we'll finish okay and he says well Jordan potatoes now he finished talking about food now Maisha now he speaks about Idol talk very common in our world about what about Taylor we sit around shooting the breeze as we say in English just wasting time that's permissible not vulgar obscene jokes and ideas and all that but rather it's permissible look at this example he gives Ram is someone who doesn't know any Italian compare and doesn't know how to face he doesn't want to learn right so that's called since he doesn't know how to learn he just shoots the breeze he can talk because if you know how to learn and you don't learn that's an issue right right we learned that already in the first page of Tanya if you be if you if you if you don't if you don't learn tighter you're able to one moment it's a Prohibition here we're talking about not a Prohibition something that's permissible so what's the example how's that possible if he's an armor if he's ignorant so then you can't expect him to learn but nevertheless he's speaking like Idol talk says the altered but suddenly you still need to have purification from this clip of this negativity through the gilgal known as the slinging in the Palm like the show was thrown from one hand to the other and commission passes but forbidden speech going with Sonos frivolity and gossip okay everything similar slippers at the Mayors regardless they are from the three compiled cabinet Clippers and kafakella levada in Brackets Cafe alone does not mile help the title will happen to miss to remove the contamination for the soul here you have to have another another additional another additional issue which is descending to gehina Purgatory whatever the equivalent so too someone was able to learn Taylor he knows how to learn he's able to learn but I said with whatever Taylor but yet he chooses to be involved with wasting time in idle conversation and kafakalavade itself does not help to purify a soul the Miracles to refine it refine it very sad he needs to he he needs bitter punishments that that he will get for being mavaco for annulling the time when he's able to learn specifically in addition to the general punishment say for anyone that's movable it's that it knows any positive Commandments due to laziness and what is that punishment there's something called Gahanna of of shelling of snow snow is cold so when you're just apathetic and just waste time it's like coldness and that's why you get this punishment Commission because as explained elsewhere remember Mr Shem yes what he gives a new meaning to what it says that it's going to be a cold day in hell I like that especially because I can see on the screen the sky and the clouds and the vegetables it's great yes yay listen go ahead I mean you [Music] no no why why is yeah yeah yeah yeah yes that yeah right right right so that that is that's a that's ever here we're talking about that we learned earlier here we're talking about Casa Keller Kelly is like you like playing basketball we'll make you play basketball and get gun Aiden for Endless amount of time until you have purification but I had enough basketball I want to go rest no way in other words we tortured the soul in a way like we give you the extreme of what you wanted so it's the extreme position that causes pain no I'm tired I want to relax I don't want to play anymore ball so so so that's yeah what yeah I'm the way you could have beans and then they show you where you are and then they tell you where you could have been and then they show you where you are okay I've heard that too and I think they go together in other words and they and there's nothing you could do about it now there's nothing you could do have that will end on a good note it's a hemswick of put in and now we get ready for pesach we have 30 days so uh we should all have in our life remember on Monday it's six hour difference only so for you not for me for you it's one hour before this year right because it's six hours so remember that until you guys changed yeah 140 you you'll be starting in there to throw 140 this year have a great Shabbos to everyone zai doesn't take care only episode Good Shabbos take care
