Ukraine 2 - Searching is way to win over Amelek: remove the "once upon a time" Maamar Or lArba 1940

so we're on page 158 in the new mimer that we began yesterday or larba ussr it's a pace of mimer but uh it's relevant to our times uh yesterday i instead of usually i when i put on youtube i write mimer so-and-so from the year and then i put a topic or two to the mimer what i did yesterday is i just put the first word ukraine war i got three times as many hits ah that's it marketing yeah i saw that i noticed that it's so it's so funny i have no idea if they just clicked on and they heard it's a mine when they shut it or not but it's so interesting how the marketing in today's world works you know it's all in the marketing so you ride ukraine war you get three times as many hits and uh like i told you yesterday uh was even shared on a group uh in australia somewhere so barak hashem so we're learning this my murder and then i've asked two questions very simple and but yet strong questions one question is the mr says sir the night of the 14th muhammad she searched the muhammad s with a candle and the halachi isn't the gemara talks about it that only in places where you bring your comments do you have to search and we spoke about that yesterday of course so if that's the case why does the commissioner say bikinis you search the places not you search the fulham you search the places because when you write you search the comments it implies you have to search all over even places where you normally don't bring inhumans so that was one question and the second question is one second and he said that the implication of the way the mishna writes it is that you have to search not for hammetts but and we spoke a lot about that it's very important to understand that you have to understand the uh the flaws you have to stand you have to you have to know what the comments consist of in your life not just put it in one bag i have a lot of comments what type of hummus do you have if you want to get out if you want to rid yourself of hummus you have to know do you have bread do you have pasta do you have cheeses what do you got and the same as in character is it taivo is it guyva is it anger is it um you know haughtiness is it stealing is it race uh cheapness uh thriftiness whatever the case and when you identify that and we also added that you come with an air second question that ever said is what's this emphasis on the light of a candle light you need light or on there and now we're going to learn what the rebel the the previous leper starts talking in the mind about what art on the shum is yes moshe yeah just going back to the or on there is the issue didn't didn't you say yesterday but correct me if i'm wrong why did the rabbit say why does the mission say or haner in other words why didn't just say or yes so and then and then you you were starting to connect the line of nerds yeah yeah that's what i i gave you a preview of what we're going to learn now today inside correct but that was the question you got it that was the question why are on there and my i started to explain what we're going to learn now so let's actually get to the text 158 and this is um it's seven lines i believe from the beginning of the mimer in the middle of the line you know the idea is the clueless thing in our mitzvahs when we talk about mitzvahs versus in addition to the mitzvahs which are divided into two categories positive commandments and negative commandments known as hebrews assay and mrs lo sase there's also aspects of spirituality in one soul that's associated with doing the mitzvah we're not robots robotic judaism was uh in a way thrown uh thrown out the window for sure after the holocaust and even before but in other words the statel yiddish kite of a thousand years ago and 500 years ago where as they said in yiddish and i heard this from my teachers why should you do so and so i'm sure you only heard it growing up in brooklyn azai state kishrim that's what's written don't ask questions just listen fragrance concealer fred miss concilius fragrance concoctions don't ask any questions don't ask it just accept and that was a mentality in europe and uh i must say that i'm sure it still exists in certain communities at certain times although although there has been a softening but i'm not going to say that it's completely um gone it's not and i humbly believe it should be it should be but with with in the right setting in other words we need to do kabbalah soil but we need to understand right nasa nasa means act venisma means listen and understand there's a vote the vote of between the word nasa and nishma joins the two together in other words do it and simultaneously work on understanding it and that's the way i think educate educationally speaking i hear your question it's a good question let's think about it let's give it some thought let me let me and and i want to hear what you your opinion right away when you say that to a student or you say that to a child um as a parent and all that you give them a place you show them importance and prominence and you really are genuine about it because if not you're just wasting your time you're a fake and they'll you know realize it then it'll be the disaster it'll be even worse right so we have three things we have being a fake which is the worst in the middle we have just do it the way it is that's the mercedes tradition and the the top tier would be i hear you let's talk about it but right now we put on film as you will learn and you want to learn i'll teach you about thrilling no problem but trust hashem that thrilling is good for you you go to a doctor he gives you a medicine you know if you're going to waste all your time going on the internet and studying the medicine and there are some people who do that god will be you might become very ill very quickly and it'll be too late take the medicine if you trust the doctor you know if you trust them and you know them they have a background they have a reputation and then yeah sure you should explore and find out what type of medicine is can what's the side effects are the ways of mitigating those things absolutely and i say you know comes up and you know with the with the with the we're going off on a tangent for a second you know western medicine versus uh holistic medicine a very big discussion an argument for years right and i point to the ramban if you look into the rambam hillsdales he talks about holistic medicine acupuncture and different things and guess what they did do some of those things with the rabbit but once they do it with the rabbit when mess when western medicine science couldn't help him anymore you know a stroke is a stroke and this is what it is we tried this we tried that so it's it's it it's it's it's a balance and i'm not i'm not against that i'm just saying that you have to be very um careful we had a friend a dear friend who moved here to thrawn lived in swas she passed away in her early 60s and she was all about holistic medicine and you know it i'm just saying and she did all the all the whole you know i'm not i don't know if she would have went the conventional way she would have lived another five ten years i don't know so the when the rabbit says here in the mimer when it comes to mitzvahs besides doing the mitzvah there is the spiritual look at his word yes in your name that take place simultaneously when you do a mitzvah in other words we're learning right now something's happening now spiritually to our souls to us as we learn we're not yet cognizant of it and maybe we won't be ever because we're not sensitized and we're not open enough but when when we when we allow ourselves to be in that position of sensitivity and spirituality you can actually feel the impact of a mitzvah on you and then you'll be able to feel that when you put filling on the morning you're no longer a hand you're a hand that puts villain on in other words it's like if someone asks you yo listen what is your hand about your head about it's a trillion head it's not just a head the how do you also have heads non jews have heads this is a trillion head and the same was with siddhis until over fabregan i think that happy 70th birthday 1972 in crown heights underneath his birthday of nissan i heard this from rabbi uh picarsky in in in in in north tel aviv that schlieveder rabbi pikarski yeshiva pikarsky so he told me that at this fa brengan there were like you know the top 770 buckled him and a bureau was forbidden and he said and he got very you know animated and and he became very serious and and and he had said quite a bit of the and it's late into the night he took his knuckle you see this knuckle of mine and he started to go like this take his own head like this he said until this physical head will not see this understanding see this won't resonate we still need to be diligent we have to get to a point with this physical brain and and skull and and tissue and skin will will breathe siddhis that's what he said that was one of his nakudas of that night in other words here we are at 70 years that happens birthday where we we have seleuchuma going out and and it's great times and he says and what's with the brain is the brain yet a hasidic brain and if it's not a acidic brain you have to you have to you have to work so i'm saying is that ever says here yes beneficial even before we go further you stop and analyze those words there are uh an act of assay or losses do not do this via this activity because it's it's a contradiction what is the spiritual counterpart of not doing this this is what's taking place and what we need to work towards feeling and living when we do a mitsubishi let's continue i need some water please yes but never says that the concept of searching for comments is also real in one's soul over dick is coming to and that's why when you search for your own comments it requires the light of a candle the fina undergo mother says mithsia mercia means a finding you find something shinammad it says you must say though that the sourdough that sat that rises not a lot of you know it's not allowed to be found in your on your premises on pesach so we we use the word you must say that's written in regard to the prohibition of having or unpaid suffering your premises nimitzia we we we learned we we learned something from another time that the torah used the word messiah as it says by the brothers of the isis regarding the silver goblet um the word methia that's used in the verse in the posik by the silver goblet right they searched for it where is that lost goblet where is it they looked here and they looked in these bags and these duffel bags they looked all over so we find the concept of peoples searching to find a messiah to find it doesn't mean to find a deal in hebrew either she said do you have a matia you have a bargain no i mean if it it actually finding a bargain that also comes from itself is a special find oh now there's a sale normally it should be so-and-so but if you go to macy's or you go to based in the whatever stores you guys have there and uh and then yeah oh here you can get it done right so much less it's amazing but you have to look you got to look at the paper on the internet the friends you search for this and that your people you search so just like the word messiah in regard to the finding of joseph's goblet it was took him searching there so so too and when it comes to searching who've been there it requires a candle shenanigan it says hashem the candle of god nishmas adam is the soul of man why face that searches you see the word face in all chambers of the womb in other words the candle of hashem as expressed in one's soul searches all crevices all rooms and chambers of the stomach meaning referring to the person so therefore that when it comes to finding something you need specifically on their candle are you not allowed to have in your possession of comments the answer is mashup iota drop there is no in other words if you find a rum less than a kazias or a cabela less than an olive or of the equivalent of an olive or an egg whatever the case are you over uh is it still a desecration of having comets the answer is yes because the prohibition of hummus has been mashup a drop even less than the shirt over says that the prohibition involves two prohibitions one is it one is valued oh do not see it number two don't find it why look at the explanation here because if you could see it it means it already is a mercedes it's an existence it's an entity masha who refers to something that the eye doesn't see it but it's still there you hear that no yes motion i just want to say that would you just would it's very interesting because that is a um that issue is if if we don't see it in in in in the torah in in allah there's tremendous tremendous ramifications in so many different things right yes i mean right many many things right for example bugs in the water right lots of well exactly right lots of things but here pesach that's why the terrorist says you must say and the rebel says because the second edition of baal matsui means even if you don't see it but it exists you don't see it because it's less than a shear you can't you don't see it you can't see it but it's there if you know it's you must say it's a prohibition what i told you yesterday is when you know it's there and you're not moving it or you can't get to it but if you can get to it you have to get to it i spoke about you know uh going you know under your car to get comments you know what i was saying that's not making no one's going to be eating comets from under their car but if if but if it's a place where you might come to it then then you have to anyway that's by your mutsy it's so little it's so insignificant the answer is that's why you need a candle and that's exactly by the way why we use a candle why don't we use a candle because when we walk in our house in regular places you don't see the what's in the crevices little cracks you bend over and you put the little can the candle there or on the flashlight whatever the case then you'll see it [Music] so that's why it requires a candle behind those show your date nice but now and now that every brings it back to the moral to the house spiritually through this activity and that being the candle of god is the soul of man in a person's dishonor there is god's candle oh f and you go with that force that's why i told you yesterday what's that force it's a candle it's bright it illuminates and that's how you search for your comets for your stick you don't go about it with mobility you go about it with simcha i'm happy to find my negativity my deficiencies why because i'm human i'm frail and it's time to clean house thank you i want to be better i want to be nicer yes you you cannot find it because it doesn't appear to be seen at all and that's why it requires searching which comes specifically through a candle and generally speaking how do you rid yourself of comments in a yes name your name there's two ideas comments now the rep is going to the next the next stage we have two things right we search and then we beer we get rid of we destroy we burn the comments let's see what he says the shnayam both of them immediately although both of them are on the 14th one is at night avraham and what is in the morning they're different in their timing is on the day on the 14th in the morning sorry so that asks now a third question what's the difference between the 9th of the 14th of the 14th that the specifically at night our boss of the 14th the happy or the burning could be your mata basket specifically by day now you're probably asking yourself a question and wondering what's the rebel's question in order for to search and you want the candle to be lit well you do it at night because a day there's lights in the candle won't have any use but he's talking spiritually how logically we know that but spiritually why is the emphasis on searching for your own comments the night activity and the day activity is eliminating it what's the cashier between night good question so that's the third question you know the idea is the layla the night of the 14th is called ir right look at the beginning of the mimer on page 158 from the according to mishnah now what should it have really said in in hebrew should have said what yoni lail the knight of the 14th it doesn't say lail it says the light are the light of the 14th so let's go back now to 159 and he says the mishna calls the knight of the 14th or light okay i'm right as it says earlier the uh marble also so what's the 14th by day called negro rishi it's called richard nikamara talks about seven days you shall not fight any any dough that rises the sour that though that arises in your house because if it says however on the first day of the first day you should get rid of all of this what people are taking from your house okay so it seems to be a contradiction you just told me that i'm not allowed to have it on the first date and then you tell me i should i can have it enough to get rid of it la robles the tomorrow says it's a quote from the komodo this comes to include alba also the beer that on the 14th the the day before pesach begins you have to do beer although pesach doesn't begin till the night of the 15th khazal derived from these two that seem to be contradictory they say it's not a contradiction because it refers to the day before and we call it rishon although it's not the reason right what's the reason the 15th is the first the first day of pesos the restraint is the 15th not the 14th but the because i'll call it because beer begins the day before and that's how we know that beer is on the fourth on the on the 14th by day who are you today oh we have an interesting concept says that the beer hub it's experienced to writ to burn your comments it's coming from richonne it's the first it's like pesach it has the potency of rishon literally first to the 15th it's impossible we can't do beer on the first day because there's another verse that says seven days you shouldn't have any sir how can i get rid and burn comments on the first day when i'm not gonna have it for seven days including the first day so the hazards say that that word we shown you here that literally would mean the 15th doesn't mean the 15th it means the 14th and that's how we know that on the 14th you have to do beer comments okay that's why beer begins with the 14th and the titus calling the 14th re-shine and now we can clarify and explain the difference between searching for comments and burning it's beyond our boss it's on the 14th by day which is called the first hamish also just like the 15th when peso begins now he hasn't explained it yet but he's just setting the is the stage so the specialty of the 14th at night is that it's or and the specialty of the 14th by day it's that it's reassuring what that means he'll explain later yes my story about the river is that he spent the whole night in a little room looking for hummus so obviously you know he was looking for spiritual woman that was [Music] you should know that uh the person who helped the rabbit the rabbit sim for pedicus comets one of the people um related that the rebel would spend i mean you know that had a house but he also spent hours i don't know if it was all night but it was you know he spent a lot of time in and and in other words it was only him and the rabbits in the house and it was she kept the immaculate house it was clean you know he could do think his comments in the half five ten fifteen minutes and he told he told us they have a basement downstairs which she went down to the basement and he went here and he went there it's like he went he went all over that goes back to what jonah was asking about you know how about cleaning you know he didn't have to go to those places because who knows if he even went down i can't imagine he went down to the basement throughout the year he had nothing in the basement in fact one he he he allowed and invited one of the uh us aides to live in the basement and he was a plumber and to bring his plumbing equipment into his basement which he did so the basement was full so it's it's his responsibility and the rabbit goes down to the basement to check the basement so you talk about the altered i'll end with uh uh with with what i i met someone who's learned to punish many years ago in the eighties he's a talmud just met him schulman i mean i i've seen him he's here probably raising funds for whatever and he comes himself he says from the babbage way back habakkuk but he was raised in the literature way so i don't know if he you know if he's genuine or not genuine in his in his attitude towards the babbage but doesn't make a difference so he told me some amazing things about raph shah and the rabbit that i wish i would have known before i wrote my book on ponovitch and lubavitch because i would have included it including listen to this this is a first for the internet it says i was standing there he says i didn't see this from someone who hear it i was there when that ever had a stroke in 1992 i was in the basement and i saw and heard rabbit shark asking for the rebbe's mother's name because he wanted making me shabaira so the next time a lit or ponder victor who you know has issues with lubavitch and the river just tell him this i can get you his name then he was standing there that's what he told me he said no i don't need i saw it and heard it with my own eyes but one other thing he said was about the altar he said he saw once he came in to think of shaq's house at 12 o'clock and he was sitting and learning again there you know no he was he came back to his house 5 30 in the morning he was in the same position learning dalton five and a half hours learning and trying to understand something and then he said so he he was like amazed you know given given all the rhetoric of the eighties so he says i'm not shocked says to him i'm not gonna say that he's a re-showing but he is the re-shine of all the ahraem in other words this is big stuff this is not this is no small change so when we talk about we're talking about re-showing and re-showing burning the comets is called re-shine you know there's different attitudes towards reshaping and sometimes you have to allow yourself to come to a place where you understand there's a bigger picture to to the rhetoric that the community creates and this is in all communities you know whether it be the karabakh community the chabad community the breslau community community the safari community i mean where is there not hiluko deus you find that for me and i'll give you you know i'll give you a few medals okay that's the nature of the beast but that's not that's not the fiddish that's not the novelty that we know the kuntz the trick is to bring it together and to and to sh and find a general unity and like i told you i heard from the rebel myself with these ears my friend brandon once there ever said lucay deyes difference of opinion is healthy what's unhealthy is machoichus you can quote that line mach lucas divisiveness is very unhealthy difference of opinions is healthy husband and wife who says they have to agree what does that say then as long as there's respect but if two people have different ways of processing so be it but as soon as it becomes you versus me that's machlakis very unhealthy and the same was with the youth you know we talked about pasha zuckers coming up this shabbos you know the touch this tight you guys are going to like because i bring about this this shabbos mushroom ace kodesh amalek comes from the word amo a molecule is a hebrew word in yiddish there's a word amo it's spelled with an aleph not with an iron a mole means once upon a time once upon a time i had a zaydi oh once upon a time i had a rosh shiva once upon a time oh i was holy but no no one's around and no one cares get rid of a molec get rid of the once upon a time if you only live with the past and you don't see it in the present get rid of that because it's not the case i mean you know i i live i love history but i always say that if the history doesn't become an aid to what you're doing now and for and to realize that it's important now and for the future then the study of history is like the rebel would say it's like a museum you go to a museum it's a relic of 200 years ago what do i have from it not a goonish i think i told you my grandfather was sean told me that he heard that maisha dayan was successful in his in a six-day war and how he planned the the war because he knew tanakh and he uh and he from based on his knowledge of tanaka two years a thousand years ago in that urarium but she imagined that whole area the position was he was able to strategically figure out where they're coming how they're going what the cities are and he used it for war his war tactics during the six day war so there's an example where you study history and the study of history in that case knowing whether you know the cities to the right the left and all that and you and you bring it into the current situation [Applause] right remember what amolek did to you if it's only in the past it's an amulek we didn't talk about this in our mind but if it's only on a past experience right what does the balsham to say another taj we're going to read the magilla next week says if you read the medulla backwards from chapter five four three two et cetera you don't begin with one two you haven't fulfilled your obligation comes the holy basham devin explains if you read the megillah in a backwards way meaning that it happened once mordecai 000 years ago in esther and it's like a story like so you haven't read really the megillah technically you read the megillah but it's it's not you didn't get it the mcgill is happening now the enemies are there now the humans are there now esther and mordecai what they do for us gathering the yiddish and and everything else is real now so in 1975 when the shlokan were in miami they're all the bakarim and they tell the rebber we brought together five thousand children to say sukim of toran to give sadaka and there ever says beautiful and that's all mordecai did 24 000. you're behind nineteen thousand whatever twenty thousand and nineteen thousand right like thank you very much you gathered 5 000 children but if mordechai his time can get 24 000 children gathered you can only do 5 000. now you think the rabbit wanted to make him feel bad the rebel was not a nice person no he's telling these young you know soldiers of his they're moving and if i told you um 1951 5051 before the rebel became officially a rebel there was a fabregan in the nachos shul in tel aviv you know in nachos which stays a very artsy area there's a little baba to shul that's been around 70 years it's if you ever get a chance you should go in there because a lot of special yid and daven there my father even was there when he was above her anyway [Music] because of her brain i'll give the shabbos two of the gerardi uh brothers herb shmero and rab moshe and they learned in the babbage and and then and they were talking of a brain and they said kind of jokingly about their cousin rabbi gurari in in in in crown heights the previous rabbit son-in-law who they knew as shimero you know that was his name not not as a joke his name was mario and and she called shmero so you know this is their cousin so they each you know each one said to the other one like like i you heard meryl is thinking of being a rebbe or they want or they want schmell to be rebel okay you understand this is cousin speaking this you know and they and i guess they didn't feel that he's of rabbit quality he's a good person an important person and a great person but a rap is a different a different all of a sudden the rebber's brother abisroe arya labe walks in i heard this from the son of someone who was there rabbi scheinberger he lives in coral springs we grew up together actually originally the families of yerushalayim anyway so his father was there and he if israel are you laid comes in and he sees this they're talking there's a commotion you know and pushing under the nose you know like i mean these are like you know classified conversation i know moshe would love to be there i would do so he says what's what's the big deal what are you talking about so they tell them that there's no their previously passed away now they're deciding should the rabbit be the rebber your brother your brother or or uh his brother-in-law rush shock and he stole all your legs knew knew the rush on his family he knew you know so this is what he said he said basically my brother will be there that's what he says and and with a serious face he said and boy will he teach you guys what it means to be a servant he said in hebrew what it means to be a servant so you know here you are kind of you know in other words the way i'm reading into it this is my interpretation he was saying to these two gerard brothers who he knew as well and he's saying you guys are kind of poo pooing your cousin but you don't know what you're in for with this brother of mine that's gonna be the rebel you guys are to be working hard and you're not going to have rest and that's the way it was and and they went along and they worked for the river but i thought that line is so this was just a little kiddish with a vert 1950 50 tel aviv knockouts you can imagine sitting around the table with a little heim and a piece of air ink and they're talking and singing if i'm bringing rabbit's brother comes in and he says what's going on what are you talking about what are you what's the big commotion and he tells them get ready for work so that boys it comes put it in we need to work we need to work in the sense of it's a serious day rabjoyal would always have a vert because on the bakari drank a lot and they made themselves silly he had a sudden 30 40 50 bakarim and and all elderly people came to be part of it and some of the book got a little rowdy so he would turn to them and say the rowdiness you leave for tish above it's serious time serious in a sense what's the message let's put him about you want to make yourself crazy and drunk and sugar do that on tish above you're not supposed to drink it but you know you know fish above you know don't become all holy tish above if you if you're really holy you wouldn't be drunk today either so you're not really holy and if you're not really whole we should do it i'm just above huh you're interesting you like that we gave you a good for bringing this morning okay have a great day we'll see everyone tomorrow zeid bye bye ciao
