Lee Adama sighs share Bob wood in your talk and I'll be talking in a bit a well leukaemia salad having explained the prophecies that make possible the reliance of one who trusts in Hashem be exalted where did we explain the preface ease that make possible the reliance of one who trusts in a sham remember but the entire chapter 2 and then again in the beginning of chapter 3 I spoke about the things that induce be talking or you listen to be talking okay so having explained that I've been a Bahia says now what's like the next step here that we got to cover yesh a lie it's a con it's incumbent upon me now lease make lehand Peter off nyesha be talking to her laughs and my Sheba Devon and Michelle bottom you've told me they're a little Kimberly Lhasa athletic hood I must now follow them with an explanation of the proper way the proper manner of Reliance in each of the seven concerns and which one who trusts relies on Hashem and on something beside him basically been a bit higher breaks down our lives into seven seven areas that we have to be concerned with okay the material and the spiritual and then the material for the sake of the material of material for the sake of the spiritual subcategories of that then there's the spiritual there's two categories within the spiritual seven categories altogether there are seven things that basically a person has to do I don't want to say worry about because the point to here is not worry but there's seven things that a person is concerned with and now Davina bhai is going to talk about the proper way to have be talking in each of these areas in each of these areas okay but what doesn't mean when it says I share that you've called Matea Hollow Lake Havasu law say when who trusts in Hashem and on something beside him that sounds very very funny like on something beside him with thought the whole point is we don't trust in anything beside a sham so the nether but Kadish explains that means that things where it looks like there are other reasons for the accomplishment so we're talking about matters where there's a like natural plausible explanation of how how should we have the baton in that case yeah okay fine let's continue the a murder but Peter Hale accretion mayhem who bin Yanni goof inaudible wad okay so let's look at the first group the concerns of one's own body that aim high of them may say the Ted of methane a Yas a blue shade yet uh say you buddy who say holy amy daysif so basically his life his death his maintenance food clothing and shelter his health his illness and his character traits what's the proper way to rely on a Shem in regard to that stuff that personal stuff well off the ideation we've been talking a little team calling young man the proper way of relying on a Shemin all of these things is what sheís like a snapshot ahem Lally pays a gaze - a ghazal a abate ma a.m. it is to give oneself over to throw oneself literally to the predetermined course which the creator has set for him just totally abandon oneself to the the hush jaha to the to the plan the Tipton's a shovel a cubes butter and just trust in a Shem the ADA yellow you go male Mayhem allah masha Kadamba dasa beta and just know that these matters one can only attain that which has been determined by the Creator Shu who are knocking leonov by Elham huzzah Balaam ha ba ba set a block we say and now sham already worked out what is the best most appropriate or fitting for his situation in this world and the next and for his ultimate good so a sham worked it all out to sham knows exactly what you're supposed to have in these areas meaning the stuff that is me my health my body my possessions prashant August abate early Coulomb shovin and that hashem x' treatment of him in all these things is all equal english umbria by hem ate Solenn Haga elaborate ruses ate off say the DNA no created being has any term here's AIT's advice but it really means like they don't have any input and they don't have any influence that's all translate it except with Hashem's permission and Hashem is decree no being whether it's a human being or institution or or a country or or a force of nature nothing can have any effect on your body your health your life your death unless Hashem is directly decreeing that that's the effect that he should have Commission be a doubloon hi Evan Mesa Ava Holly a Blue Goose a just like one's life and death illness and health are not the power of the creatures k9b Odom tariff Mazzini reciprocal of lucia a shot in Jani goofy so they also don't have control over his livelihood and maintenance and clothing and other bodily concerns the imbue tur and munis a union a master of azalea Sibelius Alan and with the clear conviction that his affairs are given over to the decrees of the creator should be here a sub a delay he a potato hot Eva and that Hashem choice for him is the best choice huhai of Liz goggle the sea by stylist of he's at the same time he's obligated to pursue the means most beneficial to him the leave karate near La Mina in yin and to choose that which seems to be most the best course of action in the matter well Hakeem Yassa Masha caught my bags a toss a and then a sham will carry out whatever he is for ordained so it's an interesting intersection between free will and free destination the way they're being of a high is explaining it is look it's all Bashar all these things are all predetermined and at the same time you have to make effort based on your best knowledge based on what seems like the most responsible most logical course of action even though clearly that's not going to determine the the result but we have to we have to go through that process nonetheless we had a Melissa for example he other alpha pshh he'd say meet us yama of ceramics ada Sibelius butter a person's life the end of his life meaning when he you know when he's gonna pass away he's predetermined by the decree of the creator right that was already established from the beginning of his life before at the beginning of his life eh Allah Adam was Galgo recibe sahayam but Michael of a Mishnah mal Bush the monkey feet sorry but the person still has to pursue the necessary means of subsistence food and drink clothing and shelter in accordance with his needs Vallejo Nick has a loyal Hakeem and don't just leave it to Hashem shame are saying you know this would be the person's logic even call them big Zetas have a - yeah if it's already four ordained that I'm supposed to live Yasha now should be goofy nibbly Cole you made heii I will then then he then he'll preserve my soul within my body without food all the days of my life like at the of a cautious attentive male and I won't need to bother to seek out a livelihood and endure the toil and exertion this tails but Rabinovitch Isis that's not how it works don't call that be talking remember I told you in the end of the hog Dhamma he described chapter four as being about what buta the Vorta mashup ahem yeah but talking with he of shiv clay good news about him like where the talkin is appropriate where it's praiseworthy and where it's reprehensible okay so this is basically an example of that this would be a misappropriation or misapplication of the of the entire idea of be talking if a person would say well because the you know my appointed time to live in this world is already you know and Hashem already knows exactly how long I'm supposed to be in this world down to the millisecond so therefore nothing I do really can affect it and therefore I'm not gonna worry about making sure that I stay alive he'll keep me alive as long as he wants to keep me alive right that's not how we're supposed to do it I mean this is a little bit pedestrian here and it's certainly not from a uniquely Jewish source but you know there's the the famous old joke right about the guy in the flood the National Weather Service or whoever the the National Guard whatever it's just a joke you make it whoever you want they they they say that there's a national disaster and everybody has to leave they have to evacuate and so the guy is standing out in front of his house and the street is filling up with water and somebody comes by with a truck and they say get on the truck and he says no no God will save me okay well the the water keeps on going up higher and higher now he's standing on the second floor of his house because the the first floor is all flooded and somebody comes by with a rowboat they say get on the Robo he says no no no God will save me okay now the water is so high I can't stand on the second floor of the house he's standing on the roof and a helicopter comes by and says climb up this rope ladder get on the helicopter he says oh no God will save me and then the water comes over the top of the roof and he gets washed away and he drowns he dies so he comes up to heaven and he says God you know I told everybody that you're gonna save me why didn't you save me and he says holcomb I sent you a truck a rowboat and a helicopter that wasn't enough okay so I'm sure everybody knows this little joke but the point is that just because Hashem is a control of these things doesn't mean that a person has been talking by being irresponsible or lacks in these areas there's a certain amount of responsibility now what does that mean so then what does the person I've been talking how does he live a different life than the person who who doesn't have Batak I mean if it comes down to it the guy would be talking has to go to work and the guy without be talking has to go to work the guy with the talking has to you know make sure there's food in the fridge and the guy without but talking also has to make sure there's food in the fridge so then what's the difference between them you know what the difference between them is an action probably very little difference in a motion a world of difference because the guy without the talking literally thinks that his job and his having food in the fridge is what his security is based on and the guy who has been talking knows no that's not what his security is based on that's just the outer form that things have to take because that's that's the way that Hashem wants things to be in this world but that it's not really where his dependence should be placed and it's not really he doesn't have any emotional confidence in those things you know it's sort of like almost like a perfunctory type of thing you know like it's not the real important thing but you know you have to do it you know it's it's part of part of the system right as opposed to the person who really really thinks that no this is what's gonna make or break my situation so there's this great emotional attachment to those things obviously that's a completely different life than the how's be talking okay so he's gonna continue by the way he's gonna talk about people who endanger themselves cuz they're gonna say well if I meant to die I'll die if I meant to live I'll live but we'll talk about that I'm it's a sham tomorrow night okay let's let's leave off right there anyone has any questions comments we can deal with that right now otherwise we'll wrap up and we'll continue tomorrow night anything anyone good okay all right see you tomorrow night
