S S S S Parshas Vayeitzei Nesivos Shalom 2012

firstly I'd like to welcome back some of our good friends who haven't been here for a while they probably want to remain anonymous but we want to we want to welcome them all back about uh I must tell you about an hour and a half ago I was still in New York City and um I'm standing at a and people are starting to poke me uh come on get out of here let's go let's go let's go you got to get out of here 10:00 you have to be back in late you got to say to share I'm feeling all guilty I'm standing there by so i' would like to thank all the people who uh who got me going and we made it just in the nick of time not no traffic really on the road the in this week's we know the beginning of the like down went to sleep for the first time in many years and we know the everybody know the mid the story what happened with all the Rocks Under y's head and yob gets your children should be like you should spread out in every which direction so tell us that theu was a Had No Boundaries we see in four different directions in every which direction will just keep on going tell us that this was special that it was a it did not have any boundaries similar we find something similar says the following you attain you get for yourself we bring and what is that is this which is brought down also the just like the BR of Yu which was out without boundaries we find this BYU we find also a similar Thing by shabas this was unlike theas that were given to and by we know the says to walk across in its wi right and it breath to to go across Isel and that was a br which was um which was constricted to to that told him go take a walk through that will be we see it says that you're G to have these you're gonna have what what I'm giving you the and that's the however special special believe so the question is obviously what did do to Warrant why did yob get a that was so much greater and so much more special than the that was given to and to also why is it by shabas if it's such a special that was only given to why is it that only by shabas KES we find the same thing that somebody who keeps shabas in the right way is such an amazing we don't find it by any other Mitzvah just by shabas so from from this week's says we see the of what was the ofu was mades things he took things which were GM which every person does which a normal person does and he made his GM into a we said in the we say in the dream the says in the dream of there was a ladder in the dream of the bottom of the ladder was firmly planted to the ground but the top of the ladder was going all the way all the way up to the heavens with this something very important that a person could take regular things that we do on a day-to-day basis mundane G regular things that's the something which regular gmis of things the daily things you do you get up in the morning you go to work you get dressed you go you interact with other people the regular things that happen people move on in life people get married they have children these are all the things Yu was going to do in this week's para and we see that every one of these things could be raised you could raise the level of every mundane gous thing that you do to where you have the capability to make it something extremely holy something which is full of a very extremely the says what happened got up from his sleep and he said behold I see that there's there's godliness in this place I didn't realize I didn't know that such a thing was possible for 14 years while was sitting and learning it made a lot of sense that yob was going to see a very very high M that's all yob did for 14 years he sat in and he sat and he learned and he sat and he only did things which were KES he only things for but in this dream y saw something extremely strange yob began to see that even by regular things by regular person going about his regular life he saw the regular things but he saw that you could be also you don't have to be some sort of hermit and some sort of person that has no was able to do that for 14 years but you see a regular person you you you have daily things that you have to do and saw that in Daily things you can make those things very holy you could take those things and raise the level to such a level of so when woke up that's what he said I never knew that such a thing was possible that a regular person could be so much a person that just gets up in the morning morning and gets married and has children and all the things was about to do he saw you know what I could serve a not just being 24 hours because a person the te of a person a person has to go out in the world sometimes too this I never knew so the says right afterwards right after the says that the says before it says before it says that he went on his way says that once knew all this that now he could be in that way he lifted himself up and he he understood that that he has this challenge in front of him that he could go anywhere he could do anything that he does in his life he could turn it turn it into he lifted up wherever you are whatever you may be doing you could do the and from that you could take everything and raise it to a tremendous elevated level of and that's why didn't have because until that point of everything was very um defined it was defined right in front of us that if you're sitting and learning and you're being the entire day then you have then you're on a high level of R but if you go out in the regular world you fall down yabu expanded that yobu told us no not just when you sit in the B mad a person has the capability whatever you do to make a KES he expanded all of that so you expanded KES in the world you told everybody that they could expand their Horizons they could become just from doing daily things so yeah you did that you expanded that now gave you to an ever gave you an ever expanding that's why you get the and our second question was what about shabas why is shabas different shabas also your it's very interesting when we say we don't say you have to be in the a little bit it doesn't say call it doesn't say that if you sit there and stuff yourself silly and take a good 12 hour sleep a bag old Friday night and make yourself happy then doesn't say that it says call shabas somebody who makes the shabas happy how do you make shabas happy you make shabas happy by doing things by taking all the things that you're going to do yeah you're going to sleep on chabas yeah you're going to eat on chabas but you use it all of that what are you doing you're being and the the of kadha because you eat a whole week also you sleep a whole week too but on chabas you have in mind well most of us sleep a whole week sometime during the week anyway I see some people making faces here but uh on chabas you have in mind that whatever you're doing you're doing it for you taking physical pleasures of eating and things like that you're showing that you could use those you're showing on chabas you could use those for too so just like by Yu the same thing by shabas if you show that you can take ra things that you do a whole week and when it comes to shabas you do it for then yes that's perfect you're you're expanding you're expanding what you're giving therefore also it's only by [Music] says if you take the things which you usually do for yourself and you make them even in you raise those to there's one other thing that's special about this of and that is this of as opposed to the that were given to one was the other had a one like the stars one like the but is special for a very specific reason because has a characteristic a of of it has a that something else it can give forth something can grow from AAR the ability to expand and grow that's the of a the Earth which is on the land and that was giving to given to a very beautiful beautiful Point how does something change from Sand which is on the banks of the River on the banks of the ocean on the beaches how does it change to a how does something come together which what gives it the the comes from May when you put water when it's being nourished by water when it's connected to May when when it has a rain when when it rains down on this Earth that's what gives it that is what's a person can have everything he can have all the bras and he can have all the right ingredients but if he doesn't mix it if he doesn't nourish it with the to if he doesn't nourish it if he doesn't he's not e the if his not life does not revolve around to if he doesn't encourage his children to learn tah if he doesn't make his house one where tah is relevant and tah is prevalent then you're missing out you don't get the you're missing out from that and that's what a person person has to understand how you become you become a through the Tor and all these things and all these special things of they were given to but they were given to as a to all of us where we can take those BR and we can do something with it also let's take these lessons that we learned from and every one of us here once we internalize these lessons and we learn to put it into practice we should be from this week's and we come tomorrow night to a we have the opportunity right away to grab on to these we should all with the permission with the permission of the of our host the Lakewood scop I just wanted to add on a v that I actually heard this past summer from a that came over to our house and he told me over this V and I told myself I'm going to keep it I'm going to wait till say when this V is on the par to say it over and I believe it's a v that uh the tremendous tremendous lesson in life we find in this week's para that Leia the were having children and Leia had one child after the other and then billah had children and then Z had children and thenu all these years is daving that she should have children and what happens thatu finally has a child and she has a child and what does she named the child she has a child she names the child and the says she named him that should give her another child so think about this for a second she's doing for a child asking that she wants to have children and finally answers her and gives her a child and the what she does is she names the child say give me another one sounds a bit strange that she should name the child right away you heard my give me another one should give me another child so he told me this beautiful beautiful boy what's he said like this thatu had extremely extremely close and special relationship with while she was broken and while she was daving for a child all these years and this relationship became a very close relationship with became a very special relationship andu did not want to think that now that a answered her that she's losing this relationship with you know some people they ask for something and finally they're answered and I tell listen God thank you so much for everything I'll see in a couple of years down the road we'll strike up the relationship again when I need something else when I need something moreu felt that it can't be that way and she felt that would feel that relationship can't be that way so as soon as she had a child was telling we had such a close caser we had such a close relationship while I was broken and while I was asking for children now that you answered me the one thing and the first thing that I asked Lee Hashem should give me another child I don't want to lose that relationship where every moment I know that I'm dependent and I'm asking everything from or I can't do it on my on my own that's an unbelievable V something for everybody to remember that sometimes we ask for things and we want things and we need things and finally gives it to us and we walk away from the relationship that's something take a lesson from that when it's close and you become close to to keep it that way and right away keep this CER of for always
