and the reason why we say this
is because in the
that the rabbit compiled based on his
father-in-laws the frida kerebe's
letters and talks
this was inserted
by
i believe the freedom
in other words each day of hayyon beyond
has a little snippet a little saying
but this
is actually
written at the end of yesterday's
um
snippet yesterday was the last day
of the cycle of hyoim yoin
and this now we start a new cycle based
on the leap year shannon will betters
until now we were doing shauna
shooter
so on the 18th of kiss slave it's
written with shawna tayva because
it doesn't say this there but i assume
that the reason why it was written
then and there
is because the previous representative
yitzok's father of shalom bear
the fifth of baby
in 1901
he couldn't be in lubavitch in where he
lived he he was out of town for utes
kislev
and yutez kislive
was the main
day of of celebrating
and the hasidim in the babbage felt very
very alone
the arab is not there on the main
holiday can you imagine let's say the
rover of yeshua doesn't show up rosh
hashanah young kipper that's the feeling
that they had
so
the rebbe
wrote them
wrote them a letter
and in this letter he calls
yutez kislev the rosh hashanah of
hasidis
before this letter 1901
so it didn't start with our rabbit it
didn't start with the previous city but
started with the rebel shop that's just
tech historically speaking that's that's
the that's the facts
what does he mean
and this by the way
caused a lot of commotion at that time
and for years later and probably i could
say up until today
there are those that if they see me on
youtube
some of them will will jokingly say so
it's rosh hashanah for you right
so they still haven't gotten over the
initial
100 plus year uh statement of the
rashaab and what does
mean
that ashab meant that just as rosh
hashanah
begins a new cycle
just as rosh hashanah there's new
highest new energy given to the world as
it says in egypt
is chapter 14 letter 14
so too on this day
there's new highest
and new kayak given to every jew that
identifies with tyra
in the language of the of the rabb
he said
that's part of this letter that i'm i'm
citing sighting
oil energy vichayas and kayak and and
then air is light and high as his energy
nafshanu of our souls
nitan lana was given to us
to do what the
continues
to
implement
in a daily way
the
teachings
of hasidism of the belgentov
and the teachings of the altar the
and this
this became the credo
of
the chabad movement
the last
200 plus years
from 1799 when the altareber
was released from jail today
after being informed on that he's
supporting the turks when he sent money
territory to call habad
he was informed
to the czar the russian government that
he's supporting the the turks over the
tsar and therefore they imprisoned him
and his life was in jeopardy and on this
day
he was vindicated and it was shown that
this wasn't true
this is historically what took place
and it's a it's a major it's a major uh
important historic day even going back
further
let's go back to
let's go back to um
to what's it called
to um
to
500 years plus
there is a safer called shiloh sichuvas
minasha mayam
response response from heaven
i forget the author i'm sure it's
available but i forget now the author's
name
and he writes there
on the day you test kislev he writes
yo bisura
like you've heard of the word the suros
tovos so does
sort sure means
information good news
the surah told him is good news so he
says
that yuta's kislev today is a day with
good news
he says he says it he doesn't say about
what that means it applies to everything
so heaven first of all
you guys still have some hours left
whatever you need today is a good day
i'm very serious i'm a very big believer
that if you make an investment today
you're going to see only good
he says yay pseudo
and you can argue does it mean you have
to make the investment today or the
results will be today and i you know i'm
not also i think
um
one of the uh
wars i forget which one
the the enemy fell
on this day on on on youtube or
something that happened a world event
there was good news for the jewish
people
in the last i'm talking about 20 30 40
years or so was today so
historically utes kislev is a special
day
another thing happened you test kiss
live the market of ms rich who was the
rebbe the teacher of the balatanya his
yard site is on utes kislev in fact
when the altarebus said
that when he's when he he said that on
this day my my teacher's yard site when
i was reading
the verse until it in psalm noon
when i was reading prada
she says before i could say the word
shalom yo sashi basholam i was i was
given the news i was informed
that i i'm set free i can leave jail
so these are historical things
and as i said
that going back to that concept that
it's rosh hashanah
it means
that it's a new opportunity today so for
us
who are
you know people we learn tata we do
mitzvahs we have children
you know we're involved in community and
all of that
this is a
a complementary
aspect of tighter judaism and this too
has support not only in hasidic sources
but also
the going the vilna going
rebellion
who initially was
was uh convinced
that hasidis and balshemptov is
something that is god forbid contrary to
torah
that they follow in the ways of the
heretical
uh false prophets and messiahs like
shabtsvi and frank
and he signed a
excommunication against qasim
so the rabbi salavaichik of yasha bear
by salvation already said
publicly and it's printed and it's on
the on the web
that he
he said that in his family there's a
tradition
that
the the great great grandfather
did not sign
and participate in that
excommunication letter against hasidim
and in fact in his
in his family the tradition is that the
vilna going when the altar ebba and
remember vitex
went to discuss qasidism
with the going and to prove to him that
it isn't heresy
like he was told by some people who had
a bad intent
so the vilna going didn't open the door
he looked through the keyhole they had
you know those days large keyholes
and he saw the holy face of the altar
ebba and the salvation said this is not
hayam dolphin or the rebel or khabar and
salvation said
that in his family tradition is
that he didn't open the door and that he
actually jumped out the window or
somehow
didn't want to
meet the altar ever because
if he would have opened the door and met
the altar ebba he would have gone along
with the alternative so even if you
don't accept the last part of the
statement and just the first part that's
strong enough meaning to say
that and and it's strong enough because
today and this that ever said many times
since he became in 1950 51
that ever said that the fears of the
vilner going and the people at that time
we see now
hasidim did not become epicursion and
heretics
so
there was a reason for fear
true it was
misinformation but that was the reason
but regardless so many years later
go look through the two hundred years of
hasidic hasidism and you don't find a
mass exodus to heresy from hasidic
judaism be it khabar or any other
hasidic group
so
if bottle hashiba there's a rule in shas
if the if the cause and reason is
null and void
bottle hammock
the result of it is also null and void
so therefore
hasidism
is like learning
and every other
part of the titan
today
i don't have to tell you you know as
well as i do
that hasidism has become
very popular and very in i'm not even
talking about
neochassidism
you know
rabbi moshe weinberger's hasidism i'm
talking about
classical khasidism i recall and i
believe it's still the case that hilo
and and several others had a sheer in
there was a exotic name it came from the
city of lekhovic i
so
and in fact i'm something people don't
know and it's important to know and i
don't have an explanation to it because
i've asked
islam
i asked as a grandson of the selana
maraba of yerushalayim and he's a big
town with hohem a good friend and he
couldn't give me an answer and that is
it when the altar
was was informed on it wasn't only the
altar was taken away it was the out that
heaven about eight or nine
other tsaddikim including
so i asked
my the sloan america and who was this
with the father figure of the slanderer
dynasty islamic hasidis
so i said why don't you in your
community celebrate this day
as a release
because when the alternate was released
i believe the others were at least two
and even if they weren't released on the
same day they were released shortly
before shortly thereafter
so in other words it's not just the
hasidim for khabab nix for the babbages
it's a a
a a special day of celebration
for all hasidim
in other words
what was on the line over here as the
the barbecue rabbits explained
was the idea of popular like not popular
publicizing
the teachings of the balshem
in a way of chabad
now let me explain that but i have to
say if you have say the highest
of today it's a special day
and they should help everyone should
have on ibrahim starting for the four
shalamus you're joining your father
and you should
so
the
the idea
of of hasidism
of hasidis
is is
today
a standard
uh in the market of jewish
scholarship of torah
and
now is not the time but in many of my
books i've shown and i continue
how others
in either
openly or quietly
teach hasidis and take things from
the tanya which is of course the safer
the altered and other citizens foreign
okay
and barak hashem for that
however
we have to know that on youtube
the balatanya
said whoever
celebrates this day
with joy and happiness
listen to this i will take them out
min
from the narrow straits of agony and
anxiety and pain
el hamerhave to the expansiveness of
goodness and kindness and happiness but
the language of the altareba is
from the material to the spiritual
so what does it mean
it means very simple here we are
every day we dabbing and we learn
and one can feel sometimes down
one can feel that their avoidance are
shared the service is not accomplishing
what it should accomplish
and you need like i said yesterday this
year you need a motion albanel to help
you with your munna
after what happened sunday in energy
soil
we need his
simple it's not
you don't need to be as a
rocket scientist to understand that
so
two days after this terrible event um
sunday we have you tess kislev
it could be
that the reason for it is
to be mahazaka or a moon
through the study of siddhis and
i got yesterday from a friend of mine
who was in binane
it is amazing to see probably thousands
of eden
of all kinds especially keep us regal
from the um rabbi cook and the americas
are
swarming the place
and i thought it was you know older
bakarim now i see they have a new
program for children
and and and and who's teaching not just
laboratories but moshe shapiro i think
his name is who is one of the leaders of
the of of the the the americas
yeshiva
program
or system
so
what's happening is
that their teachers not the barbecues
not chabadniks
are sharing the message of the balatanya
because the message of the balatanya was
not just for laboratories that's the
biggest
fallacy that's been created
and needs to be abolished
okay we're not here talking about that
everyone has to wear a kaputa a black
frock and a hat and a beard it's not
what we're talking about
that's a whole other
area and discussion
and analysis and for that you need
a good love a mashpia
a spouse
a friend
you know
how to
live
uh
lifestyle if that's what you want to do
we're talking about learning citizens
and sharing with the world the beauty of
siddhas
and the beauty of siddhas that the altar
ever put into tanya
basic tanya i'm not even talking about
my mario basic tanya you take for
example you only chapters 26
through 34
and you encourage people to learn those
chapters and if you're able you study
with some of them
those chapters talk about happiness
anxiety depression
alacrity procrastination
all issues of character development
which we look
to to improving and to refining are in
those nine chapters
and
in what type of
style
not a musser style but a hasidic style
not that there's no place for moosa
but dalton
didn't come to teach muslim solanter and
his students
taught musser
[Applause]
navardic were all
big people really big people sadiq holy
people
of sadiq i meant to say they were
they were
what the world called sadiq and they
were very very fine
trainer giants
but they weren't teaching hasidis the
belgent of thought siddhis
and his students his student the maggie
whose yard said is that they talked i
say this and he developed tongue medium
and it came down to our generation so if
you look into tanya
i'll just give you one example since
it's youth kislev and it's important to
to mention
in chapter 29 doubt that ever speaks
about asks the question who is the real
person
aaron who who is the adam who who are
you who are who are we
well someone you'll say we have a
nephesh you have a yates of taiwanese
horror in the language of tanya a nephi
shambhala is
but who are you who am i
so the answer you'll probably get is i
have an ishama
okay but you have osa yates in her
in chapter 29 on the second on on the
second page
from the beginning of the tanya
he says there are three three times
he he
he says he he
if it
is the man himself and as you know he's
referring to
the nephew
what drives man
what drives us daily
is the nephew obama's we want to eat we
want to sleep we want to have honor we
want to have pleasure
we want to learn for covered
right that's not coming from the nephili
kiss that's coming from shabbat
so the average daily activity of a
regular yid
says
is man himself moshe you hear that
now that sounds pretty heavy and you
might say that sounds pretty muslic well
it happens to be the chapter 29 and
tanya the first part is kind of the
musser within tanya
but i chose i chose to talk about it now
because of something else towards the
bottom of that page
says
and the the advice
that's that week that's necessary to for
us to vacate
this
nepheshobami's
and we look at his language there
compared to the language that he uses
earlier
in tanya where he talks about
and when he talks about goshmius in
chapter 26 that i mentioned he speaks
about someone who god forbid is
suffering either with
health
says there that if you have to focus on
the rookness on god that it comes from a
higher place and therefore it's all good
and when he when when he talks about
this in chapter 26 he uses language
citing a either possible
that also used the word and the advices
but it doesn't say and emphasize like
the advice of all advices
in chapter 29 when he's talking about
when he's talking about a spiritual
problem that the nephesh obama's is all
over us
he uses the word the advice of all
advices so the question is why when it
comes to the physical material in
chapter 26
he says i'll give you advice but you
know he says it kind of in a way where
it's you know
it's uh it's not that bad
and when it comes to chapter 29 when he
talks about a spiritual ailment
he says i have to really give you advice
so i heard
i think i believe foreign i heard
that
the the reason for this
is
a very important message the reason is
that the altareb is saying spirituality
is
should concern more a person than gosh
means
which to us is
so real
pales in comparison
to the rookness of of your avoidance
hashem
and that's such a deep insight and a
heart a hard one to swallow
but this is in between the lines in the
tanya what i just said you're not gonna
find black and white and natanya
i'm just showing you how there are
hidden messages
of importance to daily life
that the altered
put into the tanya if you study it
carefully
and this is
the call of the hour
to study ourselves tanya well and to
teach others
we we've said this before but aaron you
weren't part of the group at that time
but rabbi maluna and william with
sullivan show him i always mention him
with tava because he was really really
you can call him a tadic he was really
especially besides that he was a genius
of tayden
he was a very fine yeah very special he
had such obviously slow
when i was in in in betchemish in 2018 i
believe or whenever i was 17 or 18
he
pretty much forced me to give a tanya
shear in his shoe
i had met him
and and and then you know he said he
wants me to
write him a course syllabus
so i did for the first and he took out a
full page ad and my understanding is he
paid for it not the shoe
he didn't ask anybody
that's the type of year he was he didn't
ask me
when we finished the six weeks
of the course syllabus
so he comes to him he says rabbi dolphin
he says
i need your next course syllabus for
tanya
so i say rabbit milinowitz we have
already between five and ten severe
that are coming 9 15 a night
and we're learning and it's very schmack
and we're into it and we really it was
it was great
and and i said you know i'm not sure
that others are going to come so late at
night you know and these guys that are
really committed are coming
so he says ruby dolphin this is what i
want
write me a course syllabus
and i did
and he put it again in the full page
head
and i don't remember if more people came
or not
but he this is what i mean he like
twisted my hand
to to to to to publicize the sheer
in a literature shoe
not a
and why am i saying this because not
just because it's yutez kislev but for
to show you and then i don't know um
you were with us from the first day in
the kylo
ren melinda woods i think i'm not sure
anyway rabbi melinda woods hillary was
there rabbit linowitz
was my first guest speaker i used to
have every few weeks on a thursday
honestly you remember a guest speaker
to give a different type of
so it was this time it was this time of
the year was you test kislev time
and i asked him and he said sure
i think it's on youtube his talk is on
youtube
and he spoke for i think 45 half an hour
45 minutes
and of course he joked he said what am i
doing speaking about youtube and then he
went on to share such wonderful insights
what's with the nakuda is
that
it belongs to everyone
no one is a boss over terror
not khabad not bhave not bells not gare
not the lit fox not the svardim it's
claudius
we
who are informed about its
its importance and the pearls that there
are
have us
to be able to share it with other eden
so the fact that hillary for example
encouraged aaron to come to the sheer
um is an example and i'm not saying this
to flatter him or flatter you i'm just
saying
this is an example
of how
you could get other people who are not
working and have the time and i
understand that of course
so it's not my share it's a different
share who cares who sheer it is
but to taste to see this
and
there are people
who learnt in yeshiva all their life and
they strived away
and they were hardcores far them lit fox
and when they tasted a chapter in tanya
it made
an entire
revolution in their way of thinking
this is not only by amhar by simple eden
but by rosh yeshiva
by leaders
and their energy so and they're in
america
they're all over because tanya
dalton
put his soul
and heart into his tanya
i mentioned the other day it's worth
mentioning again
two
one thing and there's something new that
i didn't mention
the previous letter
the knight of utez kislev he made a
vibranium
in 1928
right because in 1929 you know what the
previous ever was on youtube's live in
philadelphia
and he set a mimer
in the school in philadelphia because
the rebel was traveling from
philadelphia he went to baltimore from
baltimore he went to chicago from
chicago he stayed two months the longest
was in chicago because there were so
many of his kassidin there and it was
such a large community in the 1920s and
30s and they wanted that ever actually
to live in chicago
so he spent a lot of time in chicago
where moishe comes from
and afterwards he went back towards
boston no and then he went to
i'm sorry in between he went to or after
he went to detroit and s lewis and then
back to boston and springfield and
stopped in worcester back to new york
but in 1928
one year before
he he he he was uh in in uh in poland in
atlas where he lived south of warsaw
and he said that yutez kisliff is like
your kipper
any feeler that a person asks for will
be answered
that's not me saying it it's the frida
karebe
so that's one thing that you should know
today is like yom kippur the the
energy and the and the ability to
connect is like yom kippur
the other thing is i told you in 1926
in
1925 actually in 1925
the they were in brownsville brooklyn
there was a hasidic show called anche
babrisk
and they made a
utes kislev party they called them
parties at a restaurant
and the president of the shul who was a
great great grandson of the baroque
martial etenger of babrusk who was a
student of the altarebe
he invited the rabbi who just came over
it was hired rabbi jacobson israel
jacobson the known chabad activist
and and he told rabbi jacobson you know
because it's yutez kislev i'm making a
special
meal at a restaurant at a kosher
restaurant i'm sponsoring it i would
like the rabbi to come
and then he said to the rabbi he said to
rabbi jacobson the reason i'm doing this
and splurging the money and doing this
is because my great great grandfather
said and this is the tradition in my
family
and mind you he wasn't
a hasidic jew at the time this means
this this president
okay
i'm not sure he had a beard and all that
you know what i'm saying he was he was
being assimilated at the time then he
became closer
so he said that the tradition in my
family is that whoever will celebrate
the altered simcha and yuta's kislev
is guaranteed to have
nachas from his children
and because the children of the time
were really assimilating
this was important to him and his
generation
so
here we are that's 1925.
it's 96 years later or so 97 years later
and the same as for us
if if if if hassan or the alternate said
that believe me there's there's truth to
it and and it's valid
and what what do we have to do we have
to celebrate you just kiss live so even
if you haven't gone yet to a fabrega in
addition to our fabregan here and you're
able to go night tonight to some
fabringian you definitely should go in
10 minutes 15 minutes a half an hour an
hour depending whatever and say look
hiya
and wish each other well
and have a mind brothers
and and take something from the fabrega
and take away something
because this will bring
more nachas to you from your children
and grandchildren and who can say they
don't need to have more knockouts from
their children grandchildren everyone we
want to have more and more knockouts so
that's on a practical level
you know kind of in the bank idea that
you have more nakas
from your children and grandchildren
with shidduchim
and and and yiddish
etc
i want to sing i want to sing now oh
it's already 8 15.
i wanted to sing the pug over
charlotte quickly okay
[Music]
[Applause]
a
he
m
[Applause]
[Music]
and
hello
[Applause]
[Laughter]
[Applause]
me
so
[Applause]
that's the famous niggin that we sing
sing
on this day
it's from capitol noon hey david miller
was chased and pursued
and
he
was vindicated and saved
and the
the the sukim that we sing which is from
the latter
the last half of the capital
talks about
the enemy
and talks about hashem protecting him
from the enemy
and it uses such words which fall right
into the situation in which the altar
ever found himself in and
the 22 letters of the title
i trust in the titan the letters of the
title which came from you bach you who
chose the 22 letters and that's what got
got me through
so hi i'm everyone we should only have
simphis
