Monday all goes to Warren may he have uh
a lot of success in spirituality in
business and every single thing that's
any good in this world may give him and
his family for uh putting together this
sh it's not easy to put together sh I
remember when we first started with the
other sh we have on Tuesday we started
with one person just me and one other
person and pretty much each week you
have to almost practically beg people to
come and the reason why is because there
something called in evil inclination in
Judaism
and is a lot more powerful than we can
even imagine so when you say that listen
you should go
to Satan doesn't want you to he's going
to do everything he possibly can to
convince you not to whether it's a flat
tire or say uh busy at work sat will
even give you money to make sure you
don't go to the last minute right before
you leave the office the One customer
you've always been waiting for for a
call that never called in his life he's
going to call
you and that's what happens so to
putting together is not easy so war will
continue to grow
this and then we want ref slim for
[Music]
Ed and also the little baby still hasn't
healed 100% yet Ed
Mal soon and
all and success in spirituality and
connection to hem
so I was thinking about this lecture
trying to figure out how do you start a
lecture and it reminded me of a uh of my
business days prior to uh learning and
teaching
t i was uh in the business world I owned
as Warren spent too much time uh
explaining my business life was not as
important uh telling you guys I spent
some time in the investment World
Insurance world and uh part of what I
did was Consulting you know different
people come to me with different ideas
and uh I would tell him my opinion even
if I wasn't the one that was actually
going to you know take the investment
per say so it reminded me of the story
of A guy by name of Henry I'm not going
to say his last name because I don't
have permission to say his story but it
was a really really nice guy not Jewish
but a very nice guy named Henry who uh
came to me and told me that there's a
group of people that are offering him
this investment deal in this uh
Park you wanted me to look at it
[Music]
and I looked at the deal and
uh I had a little bit of a talent as far
as finding red flags so I uh spotted
that it was a Ponzi scheme within about
5 or 10 minutes I spent the next few
hours trying to prove
it so now after you look at this thing
and you see that all of the money that
they're pitching that they're going to
get for investors they're really taking
for themselves now you have to go back
to the investor and you have to tell
them the truth the problem is how do you
tell how do you start a
conversation with someone telling him
that everything he ever believed was a
[Music]
lie and it's the same thing goes with am
today unfortunately in today's world of
political correctness people are too
worried about other people's feelings
and not enough about the
truth so we grow up and we uh live a
life thinking that it's okay to have our
own
opinion that supersedes the creator of
the world our opinions are valid our
logic is important some people are
smarter than others some people
are better in other things than others
but the key is that we have to
understand that there's a Creator and a
Creator created instructions because no
creation was ever created without a set
of instructions so for example if I ask
you where do you you know this pizza
does it have a Creator does somebody
make it you would obviously say yes
because it didn't come from nothing
there wasn't an explosion that just
created this
pizza or this restaurant that we're in
you know that didn't just come from
nothing a few people came together put
some steel together some uh wood and
some other parts the next thing you know
you have a building the same thing goes
for the roads same thing goes for the
cars same thing goes for everything else
in life every creation has a creator
the one unique part about all creations
is that they all also have a set of
instructions from that Creator from that
manufacturer the reason why is because
if I gave you a phone for the first time
you've never seen a phone in your life
and I gave it to you and there was no
instructions and you didn't know what
this was without the instructions this
would be useless to you would just be a
block over you could just put your cup
on
it but if I gave you a set of
instructions and explained to you what
it is then you obviously you you you use
it not only would you use it you know
how to use it to its best
potential for some reason or another
over the last few
Generations the Jewish people have been
led to
believe that the set of
instructions we received from Hashem
receive we received from the creator of
the world are no longer
valid they're
outdated they don't really matter as
much they're not
relevant and the problem is that there
is a
systemic issue within the entire judish
Jewish business what do I
mean you have two sets of people you
have either people that know and they're
already religious or people that don't
know and they're not
religious now the ones that
know once they've spent some time
learning or they were born into it they
assumed that everyone else knows just
like they know someone that was born
religious assumes that everyone else
also knows what he knows but they choose
not to do what God
ask and that's generally the mentality
of most religious people that have been
born religious that in general people
choose not to do what God Said instead
of not know what God Said
the other
side oh and the reason for that by the
way the the the the foundation for that
claim it's not everyone obviously this
is a general claim is because if you
look at the overall perspective of
rabbis that focus on kiru that focus on
helping people do chuva it's a very very
small minority in comparison to the
overall number of rabbis in general just
teach Torah now the Torah has it never
ends you could learn Torah every day 24
hours a day for a thousand years and you
still would not scratch the surface of
how much it
has so learning Tora is obviously
something that we're obligated to do as
Jews and it's something that we need to
do and religious people know
this so many of them teach themselves
and each other but that doesn't
necessarily help many people get back to
Hashem that's helping people that's that
are already in the
club out of the 14 15 16 million Jews
that are in the world maybe there's less
maybe more no one really knows how much
there are if you ask the non-jews how
many Jews there are in the world they'll
tell you two or 3
billion just based on how many times we
we show up in the
news but if you look at the overall
perspective of Jews there's only a small
minority of religious maybe 20% of us
are keeping Shabbat maybe 20% of us even
know what Shabbat is everyone knows that
Shabbat is the seventh day of the
week everyone knows even the non-jews
know what Shabbat is as far as it being
the seventh day of the
[Music]
week as a matter of
fact there is no scientific
reason of why there are seven days in
the week other than the Torah
other than the Torah there's no basis of
why it was decided for it to be seven
days a
week none no scientist will ever tell
you listen there is a uh certain proofs
that so and so scientists came up with a
theory and he said this should be seven
days a week no there's no other religion
that said
it since before Judaism there wasn't any
other religion other than paganism
believing you know worshipping Idols
after Judaism all all the other
religions were born there's about 80,000
of them today the three majors are
Christ Christianity and Catholicism is
one Islam and
Judaism but there are 880,000 other
Cults all of them started after
Judaism so none of them could say that
they knew something before Judaism none
of them could say that they are the
source because technically they're all
using our book our Torah as their first
book and they claim to have a second
book Christianity and Catholicism claims
to have the New Testament they call our
Torah Old
Testament kind of gives you the
perspective of what I was saying before
about how they're calling the Torah that
Hashem gave us outdated Old
Testament new always sounds more
exciting the
Quran says that
our Torah is real but yet the entire
Quran contradicts it so I'm not really
sure how it's real but at the same time
it's got It's it's uh it
works but either way no one can say that
there is a basis for why there are seven
days in one
week other than the source being the
Torah this by itself if you think about
it enough time you'd understand that
there is obviously the Torah was not
written by
Torah was not written by some person
they decided to publish a
book because if a person decided to
publish a book and say listen this
should be seven days a week that would
mean that it's open for the public to do
then a second publisher would say no I
think it should be 12 days a week
another guy would come out and say no no
I want to be competitive I'm going to
make the week much easier only two days
a week and then the guy that likes sales
was say you know what should only be one
day a week every day is a new week
but since no one did it obviously we
know that this is not a creation of
mankind as ofm the other proofs will be
much stronger but the point is that this
is a very logical
proof now the other side of the equation
are the people that are not
religious by not religious I don't
necessarily mean people that are
completely far away from what Hashem
said and don't know anything they're
obviously
included but I also mean people that are
50/50 do things based on their own
understanding and by own understanding I
mean based on their own
convenience for some reason or another
we were led to believe by the political
correctness of the world and by the
concerned
leaders that say we don't want to turn
anyone
off we're very worried about turning
people off by telling them the
truth if we tell people the truth maybe
they'll be so scared they're never going
to come back
so what you see is most lectures I don't
know how many of you guys watch
lectures but if you watch
lectures there are many brilliant rabbis
in the world there's no shortage of
brilliant
rabbis but the overall majority of them
stay away from some of
the difficult parts of the Torah for
example the whole aspect of
punishment some groups within Judaism
don't believe in punishment they believe
in what it says in our s when we pray on
Shabbat that every Jew has every Jew has
has is going to go to the next
World the problem with that verse is
that it's only the first part of that
Mish the second part of that Mish is
that after it
says after that after it says every Jew
has a part of the next World it says and
these are the following that do not have
a share in the world to come and a list
a list a long list of
violations of who loses their share to
the world to
come but in our sedur we don't have that
why because if we read it every week we'
probably be very depressed in our
generation
especially so many rabbis try not to
talk about punishment there's a old sage
saying
meaning teach T teach the beauty of the
Tor and that's going to attract
people yes it does attract people but
unfortunately not enough
know that it's attractive in the first
place to even hear it and be attracted
to
it even more
so since each generation since the
creation of the world continues to
deteriorate every generation as all Jews
know we are at a generation that we
don't have that kind of
time if the sages are right and we are
in the end of
days that we don't have that kind of
time to wait for everyone to pleasantly
walk into Judaism and just decide to
keep all of the
MIT if the Messiah is really going to
come any day
then we'll run out of time because once
the mashia comes there's no more time to
do CH you can't say oh you know what
from now on Mas I know you here I'm
going to keep Shabbat I'm G keep kosher
I'm going to do I'm GNA watch uh you
know make sure there's family Purity I'm
going to be modest I'm going do all the
things that God said no once the Messiah
comes there's no more time because then
it's no more
test so the whole aspect
of meaning teach people the pleasantness
of the Torah without punishment without
any consequences and eventually if you
teach them things in a nice way
eventually they're going to listen and
eventually they're going to do it on
their own in the past again this is my
opinion and I'm not the only one but
it's this is one of the few things
that's 100% my opinion in my opinion we
don't have that kind of time when you
have
80% of the Jewish
people have no concept of the
significance of
Shabbat and not observing
it while at the same time all of the
sages throughout all of the time and all
of the prophets have said that this
right now the days we're living in right
now or the end of days meaning the mhia
can come
tomorrow I hope he doesn't come tomorrow
because I want to save more Jews but at
the same token it's one of our
obligations to hope that he
comes so it's a little bit of of a mixed
opinion so when you have 80% of the
Jewish people don't even know what
Shabbat is and they're still driving on
Shabbat they still smoking cigarettes
they're still violating it some people
even drive to Sho so far are they off of
the basis of what God said that they
figured that if I do a mitvah by going
to the
synagogue if I do a mitvah by going to
the synagogue then that cancels out the
violation of driving on Shabbat makes
sense logically makes sense the problem
is that the Torah is not necessarily
logical the Torah is not necessarily
meant for it to be logical for
us because our logic is obviously lesser
than our
creator you know the significance of the
Creator based on his
creation so now when you have so many
Jewish people that don't have a concept
of what the basic Foundation
of what makes someone
Jewish then I don't think we have enough
time to wait and for me to teach pretty
things nice things and never tell you
guys about anything that's a little bit
hard a little hard to hear and we're not
going to learn about Gom in our first
session but we want to learn certain
things and Shimon is laughing cuz he's
heard some of the
those but we will hear a few things that
may not necessarily be pleasing to some
people because
again it's not going to be hard stuff
where you're not going to be able to
sleep or anything like that the point of
what I mean by saying hard is that
everything I'm going to
say the goal is for it to obligate
you obligate you to change obligate need
to change the goal of y r that's coming
up soon is not for us to go and pray
it's not just for us to go and look in
nice clothes and go to
beet and think about oh at least this
holiday I don't have to fast like the
one that's coming up 10 days later
Yol maybe have a nice meal at
home and then yum Kip he says oh you
know what this is not like Rosana I
can't eat on this holiday and he asked
the rabbi what time is the fast end
instead of you think I'm going to
survive y Rana it's not for us to just
go and socialize with our friends and
family in the synagogue
for all Jews that learn a little bit of
they know is the it's Judgment
Day that means that the books in sh are
opened and hasem decides whether you're
going to live another year or
[Music]
not now if someone went to a trial in
this world and the judge says tomorrow
I'm going to decide whether you're going
to live or
die you're either going to live and free
and you're going to not have jail time
you're going to be in the world you do
whatever you want or the exact opposite
you're going to die are you going to
have any worries about whether she has a
nicer dress than you or he has a nicer
car than you or whether you made the
right recipe and whether the guests are
going to like what you made for food
you're not going to think about that
right because why because tomorrow is a
big
day yum kipur is the
appeal Hashem already assumed that some
of us not going to know and not going to
do enough on rosashana because most
people think that Rosana is a
celebration oh it's happy New Year like
the Christians and the and the Catholics
happy New Year and you know with with
all the uh the bells and whistles and uh
all the fireworks no it's not happy New
Year happy New Year yeah of course we
say sh we say that you have and all of
us will have but again it's not the same
type of happy New Year Hashem already
knew that we're going to get at some
point or another to a generation that's
not going to know the significance of
rash and we're not going to pray hard
enough on Judgment Day so what did he
give us he gave us an appeal he gave us
yumy pool it's a day that it's
unquestionable why you're supposed to be
there no one fasts for their uh you know
just because they like it no one stops
their all just because it's
Pleasant that's why in in uh in Hebrew
the word for fasting is not just it's
also comes from from the source of to
suffer the message You're supposed to
suffer a little
[Music]
bit so now we
have a
dilemma if 80% of people that don't
know most of the people that do know
are
not
interested or maybe
aware or perhaps even versed in getting
those people back but the religious
people know that they need
to so hasm obviously is smarter than all
of us he sends people like me that don't
care I don't care about people's
feelings I want to save them if they cry
but then they keep Shabbat then I'm
happy because they'll cry now but
they'll get to they' be very
happy so I don't have a congregation I
don't need any
uh I don't have any other benefit other
than to make people religious and that's
the goal today so now how do you make
someone religious when they're 50/50 or
nothing first we have to
decide if we should why should I become
religious maybe the book is
fake maybe it's fake maybe Moses wrote
it maybea wrote it maybe Abraham wrote
it maybe Nissan in the back wrote it
Nissan comes to all my shoe he's the one
I said we started the shoer with in my
house he was the first one it was me and
Nissan I have the two yeah I ordered
them two more you want four no two more
yeah they're in the oven so
now what the Dilemma is that most people
don't know for sure
if the Torah is
[Music]
real to be honest with you I actually
think some religious people don't know
if the Torah is real they do it because
it's become a culture if you're born
into it it's just like if I was born in
the middle of Africa and everyone's
walking around just with underwear to me
that would be normal because I'm walking
around with underwear they're walking
around with underwear but if I came to
New York well maybe not New York but if
I came to
Florida and I walked around with
underwear then I would probably get
arrested
right cuz it's not normal
here so people
think
that the Torah has some things in it
that are interesting some people even
call it the best story ever told but
they have a hard time believing that
it's
real this is why I call myself the
failed experiment one of the big basic
one of the
most uh one of the biggest dri uh drives
that I have as far as doing
this is because I was the failed
experiment
of in this
generation I was the failed experiment
of teaching in a nice way and eventually
he'll become
religious when I had the business in New
York I had different religious people
come to my office at least twice a
week different organizations we're not
going to mention names they all tried
their best they all did what they were
told you weren't religious at the time I
was not religious at
that was a matter of fact I was as far
from religion as you could possibly be I
knew the concept of Judaism but like
many people in the world today I defined
it myself what is it do you have
any background do you have any p over
background of what like everybody else I
mean I see
dinner dinner and that's
it what level of religion I was the past
or now the past oh in the past in the
past I mean my uh parents would do K on
Fridays and then t uh and then
television and then and then uh we go to
the movie sometimes or the clubs or uh
do whatever we wanted eventually my M my
mom was the first one that started
keeping Shabbat many years before the
rest of us did my father later on
but the kids never did we went when we
were kids we went to uh we were living
in
Israel and we went to a religious school
for the first few years of our life but
once we came to America that was no
longer possible so we went to public
school and when you go to public school
you become friends with the public the
public in America is not Jewish the
public in America is not religious
Jewish so you become just like them and
you have theories that you create over
time and you have your mind that you
create and you make everything into a
nice chulent of
opinions and you create your own
religion in your mind so I figured that
once I grew up I figured okay there's
something called Tor I heard a few
stories at some point they say don't
work on Shabbat okay so I'm not going to
work on shabat I'm going to go to
casino I'll go play high stakes poker
with the best players in the world I do
a little bit of
math I was pretty good at the game so
I'll go play the World Series I'll go
play Big tournaments I'll play Pig gas
games I'm not
working make perfect sense to
me because all those rabbis that came to
my office twice a week for over 10 years
which if you do the math if it's let's
say once a week it's more than twice but
let's say if it's once a week they would
come and they would tell me nice stories
or they would tell tell me that uh you
know something that's relevant to the
par but never anything with substance
like for example by the way if you don't
keep Shabbat you're not considered
Jewish that will
hurt that hurts if I listen to it at
that time that would hurt I'm not saying
I would listen and actually do it but I
know that it would change something in
me now I'm not blaming any of those
religious people that came to my office
because even if they would have told me
I'm not telling that I would actually do
it but the one thing I do blame them for
is for making the decision for
me for deciding that I'm not ready to
hear it
yet for deciding that it's too much for
me to
bear that if I heard it it would just be
too much for me so they decided not to
tell me so I never
knew so for 10 years or
more I had people come to my office and
I would give them and know would listen
to whatever they had to say 10 minutes
15 minutes a half hour sometimes they
really nice
people but never once did I hear from
one
person that
Shabbat is the only
thing that separates me from being
Jewish meaning that if I don't keep
Shabbat based on the definition that's
in the which is the book of laws in the
Tora in seven places based on the oral
Tora which is in the based on the other
parts of the oral Tora which is in and
the best part is based on the Tora the
actual the tan the one that everyone
believes in including the non-jews
including the Christians and the
Catholics they also believe in the Old
Testament or the Tor what we call the
Torah even including there based on all
of those definitions so you can't say
it's here but it's not there based on
all of
them someone that's Jewish that doesn't
keep Shabbat the least of their problems
is that they're no longer considered
Jewish now of course they can do Chua
and everything that I'm going to say
today in any other sh is always subject
to
Chua but if anyone needs a uh a source
you go
to when it son when it talks about
someone that's a Shabbat hm is talking
about someone that that violates Shabbat
and he says what's going to happen to
them in one verse one sentence
m means death yat means upon death so
death upon death so I died twice we'll
explain it in a
second means and cut off from the nation
now if cut off from the nation meant
death then obviously I shouldn't have
had died twice before so the first death
is death in this world spiritual
disconnection from
Hashem cuz we're not getting death
penalties like they did back in Mount Si
so you see plenty of people violate
Shabbat and they're still alive so
obviously the explation is pretty
logical upon death means that there's no
next world there's no
ala cut off from the nation means that
they're no longer connected to the
Jewish
people so if anyone would have ever told
me this I'm not saying I would have kept
Shabbat what I am saying is that at
least I would have known and I would
have made an educated guess or made an
educated decision but what I want to do
with the rest of my life
maybe I shouldn't go to the
casino maybe I shouldn't drive around
maybe I shouldn't do all of the things
that I was doing maybe not working is
not
enough and that's one of the examples
the small examples of what I tell you as
far as things that are a little hard to
hear for anyone that's not keeping it
because again I asked one time there was
a
guy that came to one of the meim we have
during one of the the holidays is to
learn T all night
it was a guy that was secular came to
learn but he never comes to Sho he
doesn't keep anything but he likes this
is one of his things that he does he
comes every year to learn and we're
talking about Shabbat and I told him
this verse he said no no what are you
talking about I'm
Jewish no what makes you Jewish goes my
passport says I'm
Jewish what do you think the next
question was can you take your passport
to
Heaven can't take your passport to
Heaven can't take your money to Heaven
can't take your car to to Heaven can't
take your friends to Heaven can't take
anything to Heaven only thing you can
take to Heaven is whether you have sins
or MIT it's the only thing you can take
and that's one of the things we need to
know so
now we have to
decide that before we become obligated
of what the rest of the Tor is is
telling
us it says a lot it's a lot of pages
takes a whole year to read the to if you
read one chapter for week it takes a
whole year to finish it in the old days
it took three years studied it more in
depth than we do
today but nonetheless it takes a year to
read it if you read it with the
congregation if you read it by yourself
it shouldn't take more than a few
weeks but now either way before we
become obligated and read all of these
other rules we have to find a few things
to hold on
to a few things to hold on to that are
stamps of approval
logically spiritually and something
that's very popular today
scientifically how can we prove
something that was written 3,300 years
ago
scientifically because it's too common
of a saying that people say that the
Torah is no longer relevant it's not
relevant to our generation back then
they didn't have cars so that's why they
didn't violate Shabbat well back then
they didn't have casinos like we have
today day and that's why they didn't
gamble despite the fact that all of that
is convenient
nonsense we can still prove the Torah
and we're going to start with the first
BookIt we're not going to cover the
entire because I want to cover it in
depth every sh we're going to cover
another part today we'll cover the first
seven days that's
it cover the first seven days and see
some things
that some things are going to be
scientific so they're going to be a
little heavy as far as science if you
have questions please stop me at any
given time this is not a pure lecture
why I talk you don't if you have
questions in the middle just like Moshe
did you could ask me and I'll explain as
best as I can the goal is for you to
understand I already learned it so the
goal is for you to learn it and then
through you learning it I end up
learning because I'm repeating it and we
both benefit so first version of is
in the beginning of God's
creating the Heaven and the
[Music]
Earth in the beginning of God's creating
the heavens of the
earth when Earth was astonishly empty
with Darkness upon the surface of the
deep and a divine presence hovered over
hovered upon the surface of the waters
God said let there be light and there
was light God saw that the light was
good and God separated between the light
and the Darkness God Called to the light
day and to the darkness he called night
there was evening and there was morning
one day all
right so now one thing that we learn is
that before this world there was
nothing nothing a
mess one thing that those that learn a
little bit of T is a very famous
[Music]
verse which I'll read it in Hebrew first
and then you know to give it the proper
respect and then we'll talk about it in
English which
[Music]
is we not for my Covenant which he's
he's referring to the study of Torah or
not for my Covenant day and night I
would not have appointed the ordinance
of Heaven and the Earth this is in uh
Jeremiah
33:25 so he's saying Hashem created the
world from
nothing that's one of the core
foundations of
Judaism but at the same token he's
telling us that if there wasn't the
learning of Torah every single second of
the day someone in the world has to
learn
T there's many people learn to in the
world but if we were the only ones
learning T in the world right now we
would be holding up the
world so he's saying if
they no one learns to off for even one
second you would destroy the world now
when people think about destroying the
world they think about Noah they think
oh it took the flood and 40 days then
after that you know there was some rain
and after that there was a lot more and
then pretty much destroyed the whole
world the whole process took about a
year a year worth of disasters so people
think oh it's going to take God a year
to destroy the
[Music]
world this
is a convenient belief that people have
because they figure that if it's going
to take him that long maybe it's going
to give me enough time to plead with him
and convince him
that hey don't do it I'm a nice guy it
reminds me of a
joke there was a uh two guys
neighbors that uh Liv next to each other
all their life one guy was religious
Jewish going to learn to each day while
he works as well the other guy no t no
mitv no nothing he worked in a taxi
cabin so once in a while the religious
guy would say to the non-religious guys
like listen you know what maybe you
should should come to besset learn a few
things learn some T it's really
important no no don't worry about it I'm
fine how are you fine he goes no when I
got up
there I'll figure it out I I'll work
something out over there I'll work
something
out what he works out it's God he goes
yeah I work out things with my customers
all the time it's only $10 I convince
him to give me
15 God gave me this Talent so obviously
gave me this talent to convince him too
this made sense to
him that's how he lived his
life one day both of them went up to
shamay and they're both in the
court and the religious guy goes into
sees the judges first and a
non-religious guy is looking from the
back he's like oh this is real I didn't
really think it was really going to
happen this way but okay so he's
watching his friend his so-called
friend and he sees
they asked a friend so what did you do
each day go oh I learned toy goes no no
what did you do in the beginning goes
first thing I did I did a few blessings
when I got in the I got up in the
morning oh put that on the scale well
after that he goes after that I drank a
quick cup of coffee before I went to B
wait hold on before you got to the Bess
coffee what kind of coffee black coffee
no milk okay put all that coffee that he
ever had do you have any sugar in it
yeah I had sugar okay that goes on the
scale also so the guy in the outside
like a I knew it was going to be made I
drank he drank only one cup I drank
three cups of coffee before I even left
the
house so then the guy says okay I went
to the besset after that did you walk
did you drive he goes no I walked okay
each step let's measure it was one M
walk put all that measuring tape times
70 years goes on a
scale once I
prayed after that I ate breakfast oh
what' you eat I usually I would eat the
little muffin
start studying goes no no hold on a
second muffin you ate a muffin on the
okay put that on the scale the guy on
the outside is celebrating like you
wouldn't believe it's like
muffin I told this guy he didn't know
what he was doing muffin I didn't even I
didn't even leave the house before I had
two or three of them and just when I got
into the car the first thing I went to
is Dunkin
Donuts just to make sure that I had the
freshest donut of the
day so then after that he said after I
learned to which obviously all goes on
the scale also so the religious the
non-religious guy on the outside it's
like all right Tora I don't really have
that
much but hope the muffins I'm very good
at so after they said I had lunch what'
you have for lunch I usually have a
piece of chicken small piece of chicken
oh now all goes on a
scale the guy on the outside the cab
driver is
celebrating chicken poor guy I would
have at least one chicken at least one
steak and sometimes some cheese on it
too he's
celebrating and as happy as can be he
sees his friend scale keeps going higher
and higher
with and he's like oh he only had one
piece of chicken and one coffee and one
donut eventually they say okay you have
geden they let him in and the cab driver
comes
in so they say hello he's like hello he
goes listen I'm not going to waste your
time just take a pen write this down in
the morning I'd have three cups of
coffee I put four sugars my friend only
one sugar I don't know why I don't know
why he's wor we both died at the same
time so four sugars that worked for me I
didn't have like my poor friend M skin
he only had one uh one muffin I had
three before I left the house after that
I went to Dunkin Donuts after that I had
three he go wait hold on a second the
judge is like wait what do you think
this is a restaurant go what do you mean
my my my friend he just just came here
he just told you his order he told you
what he ate he goes no you don't
understand him everything he did he did
a blessing before he ate and everything
he did was so he has the energy to do
even more blessings to do more learning
T to do more praying to
hem what about you did you pray to hem
he goes no not so much you learned toah
no no not so
much what did you do I worked in my
cab okay it's not bad to work what' you
do with the money he goes I went to
Bahamas did you give any no oh not so
much he goes oh so all the
chicken and all the donuts and all the
coffees are worthless they don't go on
your
scale and that's what we have to
understand is that our logic is much as
it makes sense to us doesn't necessarily
make sense in
Shai so now when we have a world that
Hashem is telling us on one end I build
it from nothing another if there's no
Torah it goes back to nothing our logic
will tell us that that will take him
time I'm here to tell you it will take
him no time it would be instant doesn't
require War doesn't require
earthquakes doesn't require winds
doesn't require anything it requires
them to stop thinking about us for a
millisecond and everything stops how do
we know this scientifically
scientifically we know there's something
called an
atom all of life whether it's the trees
it's you it's your hat it's your keepa
it's my jacket it's the iPad it's the
book The Cars
everything gets down to being made up
out of atoms
energy an atom has the nucleus inside
which is the proton inside and has this
that
stays doesn't move stays the same and
there's an electron which is an energy
that spins around it really really fast
so fast that it makes everything else
look like it's
solid as an example you should consider
thinking about a fan if you ever seen a
fan when a fan is spinning really fast
it looks like there's only one
blade but as soon as the fan slows down
or it stops you see that there are four
blades or three
blades so it's an illusion it's an
illusion there only one blade the world
we live in is also an illusion it's an
illusion that we actually have
something but in
reality
99.9% of the atom is empty space it's
nothing the nucle the nucleus is
drastically bigger than the electron
that's around that's spinning around
it but the distance between
them to put it in an easy way is the
equivalent of us to the
sun between each atom and there are
trillions of bond trillions about about
trillions of atoms in each and every
single cell in your body or everything
that's made up of the year but all of
that in reality is an illusion it's all
empty
space scientists have even gone one step
further where they went inside the atom
that's mostly made of nothing and they
went inside the part that's not
nothing and they saw that most of that
is also
nothing it's also
99.99% nothing
zero now if you take all of the matter
all of the something that we have in all
of the universe
everywhere and let's say you stop
spinning the illusion
stops it stops spinning we know no
longer see one blade we see all
everything we see everything for what it
is everything in the whole
universe would be clear to us the
nothing will be exposed and the
something will also be exposed the
something of all the universe together
will fit into a box of
matches which
means that
ifem wanted to destroy the
world he would just stop thinking about
us for a millisecond and the atom would
stop spinning this is also one of the
best Arguments for people that don't
believe in God people that claimed that
things came from some
explosion the easiest way to defeat that
argument which which we'll learn some
other ones today is that let's say it
came from nothing let's say there was an
explosion let's say there's no let's say
nobody you know Moses wrote this book
let's say all the rest of what nonsense
they say is real fine
you still have to believe in a source
you still have to believe in God even
that even the biggest scientists in
history eventually get to a point where
they believe in God including Darwin
which is the one that made everyone else
believe in the survival of the of the of
the
fittest everyone forgot to read the rest
of his life which is they he said I've
concluded that there has to be a source
there has to be a
god they forgot that chapter they just
believe that the first part that they
read so now
if they listen to this and they say wait
a minute everything came from an
explosion fine started 13.7 billion
years ago big Bank Theory
fine everything started from a cell fine
I agree with you you're the best genius
where did the cell come
[Music]
from can't come from
nothing
nothing there had to be even the
argument of the big Bank says that
something existed where did that
something come from and the second
question is that something was also made
out of
atoms which is mostly made out of
nothing so what kept it spinning at the
most critical time of its
existence before
exploded what's keeping it spinning
now so this is again doesn't take a
scientist brain to understand but simply
said
it destroys all
Arguments for anyone that's
[Music]
objective the next thing we learn is how
do we know from the
first paragraph of the Torah first five
verses of the Tor how do we know that
hasem
meant for us to
have the Torah as the purpose of life
how do we know how do we know it's not
to make money how do we know it's not to
go party how do we know it's not to go
to Bahamas like the cab
driver how do we know it's not
to I don't know go on TV and make
shows this Torah has the literal meaning
but it also has Secrets within it I'm
not going to go deep into it we're just
going to give you a little taste
of what it means there's something
called codes Torah codes Torah codes are
a mathematical way of finding hidden
messages within the
Torah by
finding
a word after counting letters and having
the word is made up of not of the actual
words that are in the tah but actually
by separating each of one of the letters
by equal distance of letters so for
example if you wanted to write if you
wanted to find
a my name your own okay so you would
look for UD and then you would look for
a certain number let's say seven or 50
or any number and then you would get to
R and then in order for that formula to
work and be valid it can't be just any
other number after it has to be again if
you picked seven the first time it has
to be seven the second time can't just
be random
numbers so if you see that you see y a
or UD V and n which is my name in Hebrew
if you see that you found that name with
a equal distance of letters then it has
some type of pattern there there's
something behind it it's not just
something random but it's the first time
it's seven the second time it's 63 the
third time it's 104 then there's
obviously no rhythm then it's just pure
nonsense okay now if that word that
you're looking
for has a foundation
itself meaning that the word that you're
looking
[Music]
for is related to the verse that you're
finding it in the paragraph that you're
finding it in so for example if you find
If you happen to find the word in in B
the first paragraph if I were to tell
you that the purpose of life is Torah
and it was told to us in the first few
verses now if you remember I just read
you what I read you I didn't say the
word Torah once so how could I prove it
I see that in here there is the word
Torah and not only is the word
Torah with an equal distance of
letters but even beyond that the skip
the number of skip is relevant to when
we got the
Torah when do we get the Torah during
the holiday of shab during the holiday
of shab is when we got the Torah
right when is shabat according to the
Torah
It's s weeks after P so it's on the 50th
day 7 weeks is 49 days so it's on the
50th
[Music]
day so if you look
at the
beginning has the word t the letter T
the first T which is the equivalent of T
in English the first tough in all of the
Torah is in the first
word the first T you skip 50 letters you
get V in the word you skip 50 letters
you get in in the word you skip 50
letters and you get hey in the word
Elohim
God showing you that not only is the
Torah right in the beginning without
even saying the Tor in a literal way but
it's at a time where it's appropriate
for that word to be in there there are
plenty there's hundreds of thousands of
codes within the Torah but again this is
just one way to prove that the Torah is
not something that a man could have ever
written another thing that I actually
learned recently by
um a video that was put on by Orin uh
Evon uh which was work also by done by
Professor hin
Shore about the first uh verse of the
Tah
is that the ramban says that the ramban
says
that also
means with wisdom she means in the
beginning but if you look at the each
word in the Hebrew
language has a source has
a foundation doesn't just words don't
just appear from nothing like for
example in other languages where we just
make up words each word has a root word
within it
so has the word r which means head in
Hebrew indicates
wisdom so what so the ramban says that
bit also
means with wisdom meaning that with
wisdom God created the Heaven and the
Earth okay
nice if you look at the numerical value
of the letter each letter in the Hebrew
alphabet has a numerical value if you
look at the numerical value of the
letter of the
word
including the letters that spelled the
each one of the uh letters
meaning but each the the word the uh
letter if you spell the word out is
C
is and me is and he is
he so how do we know who is considered
wise who's considered in the
Torah we say if he follows what God says
how does he follow what God says he
follow
63 this numeral value of all those
letters I just mentioned to
you is
[Music]
613 so again another small example of uh
Professor Haim Sha's work and others
showing that how the Torah is far far
beyond uh human
imagination the next thing
[Music]
[Applause]
is the next thing is is we
read God said let there be a firmament
in the midst of waters and let the let
it separate the water and
[Music]
water we're in the second day we finish
day one ah I wish but finished a spec of
a spec of some things we can learn about
day one day two God said let there be a
firmament in the midst of the waters and
let it separate between water and Waters
so God made the firmament and separated
between the waters which were beneath
the
firmament the waters which were above
the firmament talking about the
sky and it was so God Called to the
firmament heaven and there was evening
and there was morning a second day great
kazal which are which is our
sages say that there are two waters
being mentioned in this verse
he says that there are Waters
above the sky and there water below the
sky and if I asked you where is the
water below the sky everyone knows the
answer right it's in the ocean it's in
the
Lakes it's in my toilet it's your
toilet sometimes in this Coca-Cola
hopefully it's everywhere
right where's the other one where where
is the water above the sky and not only
that as if that argument wasn't hard
enough to prove 3,000 years
ago they said not only is there water
above the sky the water above the sky is
much more significant to our needs and
not only much more
significant there's much more of it the
last time I checked when I looked at the
sky there's no water yes of course
sometimes there's clouds and they pour
rain but that comes from here so I can't
really count that he says he separated
the water from below the sky the clouds
are below the sky so he's not referring
to the
clouds he's saying it's above it's above
the sky it's somewhere else it's an
outer
space it's problem boys other planets
you looked at the Moon there's no water
there look at other planets we're not
really sure what they have what they
don't have it's a little more
indications on last few years what did
they do 3,000 years ago what did they do
2,000 years ago I can tell you back then
they didn't have
telescopes so everyone made fun of us
everyone said ah you don't know what
you're talking about see I told you you
made this up it's nonsense that you're
saying there's more water above than
ocean look how big the ocean is the
ocean is 73% of the
globe
73% you're telling me there's more water
somewhere else we can't see it if it was
so much water we could definitely see
[Music]
it once in a while we all see something
called a shooting
star right you ever see a shooting star
in New York you don't see too many
shooting stars because of the
pollution but in Florida I think there's
less
pollution huh that's where you live why
I lived on the 35th floor in Manhattan
in downtown Manhattan no shooting
stars Upstate that's not really
considered New York
so
now you have shooting starts always
start this is nice some people thought
oh it's a star that was
broken it
fell it's a nice story sometimes they
tell kids
maybe in reality what is that star
scientists discovered that that
star is creating this stream because
that stream is water VAP
where is that water vapor coming from
from the Star what's the star really
it's a comet what's the comet it's a
ball of
ice tall
ice we had a few of them hit Earth
there's one that hit Earth uh in
1908 the field that it
hit it said it was the equivalent of
several atomic bombs that hit Hiroshima
in World War II was the equivalent of a
few of them
[Music]
and the trees thank God there wasn't
people
there but the trees until this day can't
grow on that
field that's how powerful it was this
was just one comment tiny tiny little
Comet 30,000 lb the average Comet that
you see in the sky with the little
streak is a billion tons a billion some
of them get even to a billion a million
billions
okay so that's a
lot one other thing thatal told us is
that not only is the water above the
water here much more
significant
size and
importance but also it's still it's in
one place it doesn't
move we got to a point in science that
we finally got to a point where we can
see some of the deeper parts of outer
space and we
saw that the outer layer of outer
space is all one big
ball full of ice and those comets a tiny
little pieces that keep breaking off of
it meaning that if that giant layer that
giant outer
layer is called the or
Cloud if we ever to
melt it would fill the oceans of the
earth more than more than a thousand
planets the size of the
Earth this is page 32 you have this book
whoever doesn't uh have this book but
whoever waits till the end I have I give
out this book for free along with some
CDs that talk about
Torah uh so whoever wants to wait till
the end I have a free copy for them it's
a fantastic book by Rabbi zamir
Cohen uh and there's many of the proofs
that I'm going to talk about come from
this
book so this is something that talks
about comments it's extraordinary and
it's something that uh really truly
shows how at a time we didn't have
telescopes at a time we didn't have
anything even remotely closer to
technology we have today we knew much
more than the people even today know why
because we got the information from the
creator of the world the second thing is
we
learn is that there is something more to
water hasem said that he had to create
something that's related in connected to
water then obviously water is important
water is important for our existence now
scientists say that most of the human is
made up out of water
great but there was a professor a
Japanese Professor I believe his name
was Professor Yamato he's also in this
book but I'll just go off of yeah I
think his name is Professor Yamato no
Oto okay sorry Mr Oto Professor imoto
not Jewish last I checked wanted to
understand water in a deeper level he
wanted to understand if we can impact
water with purely our
words so he took water took him into a
little petri dish you know those little
dishes that you have in science lab he
put water in it he took two dishes one
water before he froze
it he gave it compliments said nice
things about it and the other one he
cursed that said not so nice thing
like you go to New York and you hear
that language like everyday
language I'm the subway subway subway
that water won't
survive so now I have to pick another
place I don't want to pick on N too much
I'm going there in a few
weeks uh so
now he took these two
dishes he said some nice things and some
bad things and then he froze it after he
froze it he took it out looked it into
in a micro scope to see how the ice
cells were formed if anyone anyone of
you have ever seen a uh a
snowflake when it's under a microscope
it's beautiful it has a beautiful
symmetrical design and no two snowflakes
are the same it's also one of the
amazing proofs that a Creator had to
creat the world cuz no two snowflakes
are the same just like no two raindrops
ever touch when rain one of the Miracles
of rain is that when rain falls no two
rain drops ever touch each other why why
is that important for us because if the
raindrops would touch each other then
the drops would get bigger and bigger
and instead of it being rain that
doesn't hurt us it could be a flood on
our head and killing people so no two
raindrops ever touch each other despite
what the winds are as much wind as you
can have whether it's Hurricane Katrina
or hurricane Sabrina none of it ever
affects the creator of the world that
put a science behind everything so now
you have this water he's looking under
the telescope and he sees that the one
that he said nice things on has a
beautiful symmetrical design similar to
snowflakes nice beautiful stars they
have pictures in this book
amazing the wonder that he said not so
nice
things dark ugly and
deformed so there was a student in Baran
University in Israel that wanted to take
it a step further he wanted to see if
our words could affect plants so he took
three beans and he planted all three of
them one of them he said nice things one
of them he said bad things and one of
them he took a shot at this Torah stuff
he said let me read some t let me read
some Psalms see maybe it's a little more
than nice things so of course the nice
things after a month grew a little bit
The Bean grew a little bit the bad ones
Bean died didn't grow
anything the Psalms grew something
Beyond
normal something like five times the
size of the one that had good words
showing that it's not just good words
it's something
Divine why am I telling you about water
are you going to become a scientist some
point or another and start carrying
around pach Tre dishes next to your
friend showing look I got nice thing
no because if you remember in the
beginning of what I said said most of
our body is made out of water and if the
words in our
mouth affect the water outside of us
like professor imoto
says what is bad language doing to our
inside if you notice
language amongst all of civilization has
changed drastically over the last 150
years
cursing is a lot more normal
today speaking freely about sex and
intercourse and things that are not
necessarily supposed to be public
information it's very
normal what's also very normal is for us
unfortunately to hear of new
diseases and diseases without cures and
diseases
that unfortunately killing thousands and
thousands of people on a daily
basis if we could only listen to The
Creator from the second day when he
created water he also wanted to teach us
that our words are going to have an
impact this Torah that we found out in
the first few
verses that has a good impact on our
body not just on the outside but also on
the inside but as far
as bad words it's not only affecting the
outside in a bad way people are not
going to like you so much maybe you'll
get fired maybe you'll be frowned upon I
don't know maybe your friends like it
I'm not really sure but your inside will
definitely suffer not that I wish anyone
suffering but this again this is in the
book this is scientifically proven so
again it's one of the amazing things
that we learned from
water after this we go to the third day
and it says
[Music]
God said let the waters beneath the
heaven be gathered into one area and let
the dry land
appear and it was so God Called to the
dry land Earth and to the Gathering of
waters he called seas and God saw that
it was good
God said let the Earth Sprout
vegetation herbage yielding seed fruit
trees yielding fruit each after its kind
containing its own seed on the
earth and it was so okay what I'm going
to focus on
is fruit
tree yielding fruit if you don't mind uh
Warren pass
this around
[Music]
the first fruit
tree it says here in Hebrew it's a
little more understandable than English
it
says it's in essence indicating that the
first
tree was also a ple the actual tree
itself was a fruit meaning that it's not
just a fruit that you pick off the tree
to eat but at first you were able to eat
the
tree the egg was a
ple and it made Fruit the the fruit the
tree that was a fruit made
Fruit
great tells
us we can learn something from
everything we can learn something to
change our life from
everything the other day I learned from
my carpet
I learned something very very important
from my carpet that's actually relevant
to this Shure and it's relevant to every
Shure I have a dog it's cute dog he's
been with me 15 years we've gone through
War together best dog in the world his
name is Bully I named The Bully because
he's exactly the opposite just looks
like it but he doesn't even
bark but bully like most dogs
sheds sheds he was 15 years old he still
sheds to this day a little less than he
used to but still sheds which means that
almost every day my carpet in my living
room looks like another
dog so sometimes and also anytime he I
give you know he takes one of the treats
he takes the treat and where does he
want to eat on the carpet he doesn't
want to eat on the floor he wants to eat
on the carpet why cuz he feels at home
with all of the the other dog that's
there that's come from his uh shedding
and the treat it's a nice big party
this will also be
for
shom
gabari it's always good to stop even in
the middle
of you want it to come as soon as
possible and will give me back my
thought so I don't forget
it so say two more people so let's say
another two people also if they're
Jewish and they're good people why
not and they also
have
quickly we said Ed already
before and
will so now my carp oh
yes you could you could listen to the
fruit
part so now what can we learn from my
carpet this another dog
you guys don't want the carpet do you so
now every day we have two dogs we'll
give you so now every day I see this
carpet then we have to vacuum this
carpet and it goes back you know before
we vacuum the carpet it looks so bad
that want to throw it out it's like ah
it's so bad it looks I can't fix this I
can't fix this but then my wife says fix
it so I fix it I get the back and clear
and I fix
it it looks brand
new this is this is the same thing as a
Jew a Jew that has never done a mitvah
in his life a Jew that has made a big
mistake today a jeude that has violated
Shabbat a jeude that made every mistake
he could possibly imagine that's giving
the yet a lot of ammunition to convince
him he should just give up there's no
way to turn
back you're like the
carpet it looks terrible the cookies on
you the sheddings on you God only knows
what else is on
you you can't go back to a
no that's what we have to learn CH is
always available as long as the light is
still on as long as a Jew is still here
the opportunity to do chuva is still
available but as soon as the clock stops
ticking no more chuva where the stop the
clock stops ticking because the mashia
is here or because our clock stops
sticking because at some point or
another after
120 our clock stop stop
sticking so now we go back to the fruit
what can we possibly learn from the
fruit we learn from the carpet so the
fruit is an even more genius creation
than the
carpet if you
notice what is the most beautiful part
of the
fruit see
notice from the picture I gave you I
gave you a little bit of a hint it's the
middle it's the middle of the fruit if
you cut the fruit in in half you cut the
Apple we'll use an apple as an example
you see if you cut an apple in half you
see the beauty of the creation why cuz
from when you cut it in half you see all
of it you see the peel on the outside
that's protecting it you see the body of
the fruit then you see the shell that's
protecting its precious juice moves
which is it seed so it continue
reproducing it shows that th this is not
just from an explosion there's
obviously a system
here there's logic
here this could not have come from some
explosion because if you look at every
single fruit it's different than the
other but many of them that are all of
those that are on that picture and I
believe all of them including vegetables
have one common denominator they don't
all look the same as you can see from
the pictures they're all different they
don't all T taste the same obviously as
you all know from
experience but they all act the same as
soon as you peel
them as soon as you peel an
apple and you just let it leave it there
you peel an apple a little bit what
happens after you peel the Apple
becomes
dark ah becomes
dark here's what we learned from the
Apple
hem gave his precious jewels like our
inside he also gave him a body like our
body to protect the in the body give him
the
peel gave him the peel because appeel
has to hide what's
precious this is no different than a
Jewish woman or a Jewish
man what ends up
happening to the apple is that as soon
as you take off its clothes what does it
be it becomes dark why is it becoming
dark because it's shy it's embarrassed
you're seeing its
inside this is one of the lessons we
need to learn for Jewish men and for
Jewish women where Unfortunately today
it's common for women to walk around
half
and for men to think nothing of it it's
normal there was one time a party that a
guy had and he invited his
Rabbi and he was telling a group of
people that Hey listen Rabbi were uh you
know want to say goodbye we're going on
vacation Rabbi said where'd you go where
you going go I'm going to the Bahamas
going on the beach hang
out he says you're going to the beach
with your wife goes yeah goes
then your wife dresses like everyone
else she goes yeah she wears a bikini no
big
deal says can I see the
bikini can I can you ask your wife to
come down and show me The Bikini she's
going to wear for the Bahamas she's
going to model
[Music]
it
so that was a good one
sure was worth it just for
that
now the guy obviously doesn't say what
he said the guy gets offended he goes
what do you mean there's 300 people here
in this party how dare you what kind of
Rabbi are you evil kind of Rabbi are you
asking to see my wife in a bikini what
kind of Rabbi are you so Rabbi says why
would you do it why is it a problem to
show it to me and 300 people but not a
problem to show it to 50,000 people on
the
beach your ears should listen to your
foolish
mouth the apple is teaching us a lesson
we are not supposed to show our body to
the
world we are not supposed to show the
parts that Hashem told us to protect
this is why the apple and the
orange and the
strawberry the pear and the banana and
everything else
as soon as you take off the peel they're
trying to teach us a lesson they're
trying to remind
us this is not
normal normal is for me to be
covered why because it's something
precious it's being covered if I had a
bag of diamonds do you think I would
throw up in the air and show the world I
have them no I he put him in a safe
amongst another safe maybe another safe
on top of it
cover it it's precious same thing with
the body same thing with the soul we're
not supposed to necessarily show our uh
body to the world and this again this is
something you could literally learn from
a
fruit there's Beauty there but it's only
specific to certain
people we go into the fourth day I'll
fast forward a little bit because we
don't have that much time
left and if you've noticed the first
three days
Hashem says that there was light but he
still hasn't created the sun he still
hasn't created the moon and he still
hasn't created the
Stars yet there's
light so an easy explanation of that
what kazal tells us the sages tell us is
that in the beginning there was
something called Organo hidden light a
light that in essence gave the ability
to see from one end of the world to the
other end of the world but God also knew
that eventually he's going to create man
and man has an evil inclination a
inclination that will make him do bad
things so if a man was able to see from
one end of the world to the other end of
the world he will use it for bad things
like peeping in onto women he's not
allowed to see looking into bank
accounts and doing other things that
obviously you could just use your
imagination for what they can do so that
light was taken away and he then gave us
the Sun and the Moon now along with the
moon in the fourth day is when they were
created it
says God made the two great luminaries
the great luminary to dominate the day
which he's refering to the sun and the
less luminary to dominate The Knight and
the
Stars
okay the part we're going to focus on is
the
Stars this is something I've mentioned
in other shers but it still fascinates
me every time I say so I'll repeat it
for my own sake and maybe some of you
guys haven't heard
it until the 1600s when Galo galile came
out with the
telescope all of mankind believe that
there is only the number of stars in the
sky was the number of stars that you can
see with a naked
eye and some small tools they had so
they estimated that you can see
somewhere in the neighborhood of 6,000
maybe 8,000 Stars that's
it the Torah in in the oral
Torah said no that's wrong we already
have a tradition directly from God and
he not only told us that there's more
than 6,000 or 8,000 Stars
but he gave us an exact
number the exact number is 1064 340 and
then 120
after how did he tell us he told us
in we were complaining to God about how
he destroyed our bet
mikdash and after he destroyed our bet
mikdash we felt like he left us so we
said listen God even
a man that divorces a wife still if you
ask him 20 30 years later do you
remember the first wife you had he's
still going to say yeah of course I
remember the first wife I had good or
bad is going to remember it but you God
you forgot us you abandoned
us so God says my daughter he calls am
my
daughter 12 constellations did I create
in the firmament meaning in the heavens
you me made 12 constellations this is
the zodiac signs you noticed this zodiac
signs the was not a invention of the
Greeks or the other uh non-jews is a
creation of the
Torah 12 constellations that I create in
a firmament and about each and every
constellation I created 30 Army
commanders and about each and every Army
Commander I created 30 leion 30 Legions
and about each and every leion I create
30 Ron and about each every Ron I
created 30 Caron and about each and
every Caron I created 30 G and about
each and every g i suspended in the
firmament 365,000 * 10,000 myads of
stars corresponding to the days of the
year all them I created only for your
sake and you say you have forsaken me
you have forgotten me okay it's a little
bit of code language this is
[Music]
so this is not only Hashem telling
us that we're special this is not only
hasem telling us that we're considered
like his daughter parent obviously loves
his
daughter but he's giving us a formula
he's giving us a math equation here it's
12 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 30 * 365,000 *
10,000 he's saying that's the number of
stars in the universe and that's the
number that I mentioned to you before
which is 1064 340 and then 12 zos or 10
to the 18th Power Plus 64 340 and then
Z that's the exact number of stars I
don't know how to say the number
big
[Laughter]
genius so when we said this to the go
when we said this to the Greeks when we
said this to the Romans when we said
this to the Egyptians when we said this
to the Turks when we said this to the
syrians to the Arabs
to
everyone what do you think they said
you're nuts you're
nuts in the 1600s Galileo galile came
out with something called telescope
wasn't as advanced as today so if you
fast forward about 400 years it became
much more advanced and it started being
connected to a super computer
supercomputer can analyze things much
faster than the human
mind supercomputer was able to calculate
how many stars they can see based on
certain estimates long story short there
was a research by
NASA in 1997 and then a further research
by the Australian National University in
both estimates came up with numbers not
too far from our own 10 to the 21st
power and 10 to the 19th power one of
them is coming closer than the
other needless to say regardless of
which number it is it's a whole lot more
than
6,000 and the secular world that's using
their logic is finally coming closer to
a number we didn't even have a calculate
to calculate we didn't have such numbers
not back then not today so the that such
a number would have been a man-made
creation is obviously foolish and the
only one that could have known it is the
one that put it
there we couldn't see it we didn't have
the
telescope we didn't have anything this
was written 3,300 years ago or 2,000
years ago in the well before Galileo
galile ever existed well before we came
to the modern world and had telescopes
that were able to count well before
anything
shows you that the toah is not only
[Music]
Divine but it's something that is beyond
our understanding and we're only finally
starting to catch up
today the next part is
when this is specifically for
people not here but anyone that has
trouble believing
in creation people have a tough time
religious and non-religious have a tough
time
believing that evolution is wrong have a
tough time they believe that there's uh
you know a certain element of evolution
which there is
[Music]
certain amount of evolution that does
happen but it's nowhere near the
science that's taught in public schools
if you remember if anyone went to these
schools I did I remember in science
class they had a d they had a picture of
a
monkey and someone looks less like a
monkey and less like a monkey and less
like a monkey and eventually becomes a
human being you guys remember that
picture okay you all remember that
picture and that's what they
say is what happened they said that
everything came from a cell and cell
became something else like a fish or
something and it became a lizard lizard
somehow became a monkey and the monkey
eventually became me that's giving you
the lecture today okay I say it didn't
come for a
monkey we may look alike but it didn't
come for a
monkey how do we know that this
is the biggest and most foolish thing to
even think forget about
say this is is purely
logical it's very very simple to
understand now let's just say you have
the five people you have the monkey
there number one then there's stage two
three four we're stage five I'm five
monkeys
one okay question number one why is the
monkey still
here simple question if the monkey
evolved to me why is he still here
that's question number
one fact number
one in order for anything to evolve this
is a little deep so just try to pay
attention in order for anything to
evolve from stage one to stage
two it has to be strong enough and self-
sustaining enough to survive without
evolving meaning that in order for stage
number one to become stage number two it
has to be strong enough to stay stay
stage number one without evolving
meaning that the evolution is not out of
NE
necessity but out of
desire to
improve not to
survive because if it was about to
survive then it would never survive long
enough especially according to Evolution
where they say it's millions and
millions of years it wouldn't survive
long enough to be number
two so stage number one has to be self-
sustainable in order to become stage
number
two got that so
far that so since stage number one has
to be self- sustainable and strong
enough to survive to be number two that
also means that stage number two has to
be strong
enough to stay by itself without
evolving
to become stage number
three
right this means that at all
times at all times assuming there are
five
stages at least three have to exist at
all
times it could never be only
two stage number one has to be strong
enough to be stage number two
now let's say we started with 100 stage
one 100
monkeys 90 of them evolve to become
stage number two that's still left
10 out of the 90 let's say 80 of them
become stage number three that's still
left
10 so by the time stage number three is
evolving into Stage number four maybe
the other 10 either the number one
became number two or maybe they just
died
but it can never be that number three is
around and number one
isn't so what is the point of this if we
came from monkeys and the monkey number
one and then there's three before us
where are the other ones how come
there's no other human that looks like
me and the
monkey the guy in the middle there was a
drawing of five we have number one we
have number five where's two three and
four at the minimum where's number four
let's say we skipped over two and three
let's say the diagram is wrong let's say
there wasn't five let's say there was
three there was monkey there was a half
a monkey half a
human and then there was
me I promise you I don't have a
[Music]
tail where's number
two that's the easiest way to
show that the monkey Theory can never be
is the caveman number two or whatever
caveman yeah caveman caveman is probably
somewhere around number four number four
okay somewhere around number four he's
right before us number two is still a
uh a monkey still a monkey maybe without
a tail some other nonsense they created
just based out of their imagination but
nonetheless again many people believe
this so the big question is there are a
lot of scientists that believe this the
scientists some of them are Jewish some
of them are not
Jewish but they're all smart they're not
fools how can you explain such a big
stake made by such smart
people first of all we all need to know
that the biggest mistakes in
history were made by the smartest people
in this
why because people that are stupid don't
ever get a chance to make a big mistake
cuz no one gives them the
job people that are not smart get the
basic jobs people that are really really
smart get the big jobs at least that's
what we hope with the exception of our
presidents but aside from that we have
number four big jobs and small jobs
that's number
[Music]
four so now so now
how could such smart people scientific
people not figure out what we just
figured out in the last
hour two things one is Money Two is
obligation first one is easy to explain
and the other
money scientists live based on
contributions and grants and money
that's being paid for them for their
sustenance they get hundreds of hundreds
of millions of dollars to do work
that's generally theoretical theoretical
by definition means it's an idea it's a
possibility it's a guess it does not
mean fact that's what some people that
don't know science think especially
young people they that believe in that
stuff they say no no the science said
that the Big Bang Theory happened but
you just said Big Bang Theory Theory
means it's just
theoretical and that's what a lot of
people don't understand the word
theory so they get a lot of money and
governments and different uh
institutions for the purpose of doing
their work so that means that if they
admit the truth if they admit if the guy
that's researching Evolution the guy
that's researching stage two three and
four
[Music]
five so if the guy that's drew that
drawing he's not alive anymore but let's
say he's still alive he's figuring out
where stage two three four in four hour
he saw this Shure
online and he's trying he's like you
know what he's got a point I know what
monkey is I know where he is I got stage
one and five where's two and three and
four now if he admits that I'm
right and he tells all of the
institutions and
universities that uh this guy that's
giving us you just proved me wrong maybe
the few hundred million will come to
this you or not to him but the reality
of it is that it it's a big risk for him
because because he will lose his job
that means that his science his work his
life's work becomes
meaningless if it's proven wrong then
it's meaningless so what do they do they
say listen we're not so sure it's a
theory but we're going to spend the rest
of our lives and the rest of your money
trying to prove our Theory
right so first reason is money which is
unfortunately a very big driven factor
that runs our world the second reason is
obligation why is
obligation a problem
because if believing that we didn't come
from
Evolution it becomes easy and we realize
we didn't come for
monkeys where did we come from we
realized earlier today we came from
God after seeing a few just a small tiny
amount of proofs which will go over many
more in the coming shs
we notice
that this God wrote a Torah how do we
know he wrote Torah because it's too
much information here for it to come
from human being there's too much
Insider information is that we call an
insecurities business stuff that no one
else
has too much
Goods it's too Divine how could you know
the number of stars how could you know
the secrets of water how could you know
that there's water when we can't even
see the water we can't even we at that
time we got the facts about the water we
still some people still thought that the
that the world was flat they didn't even
know that most of the world was 73%
water forget about thinking that there's
water above the
Earth so obviously there's enough
information just in the first few days
of
creation to shows that this book came
from something above
us if it came from the Creator and the
Creator gave us this
book at the very least we should learn
what it
says why because Torah in Hebrew also
means
instructions these are instructions I
like to call the Torah a love letter
it's a love letter from Hashem why is it
a love letter because he's telling you
how to have the best possible life here
and
there you follow what he says and not
only have going to have a lot of
pleasure in learning all of this stuff
but you learn things like they're going
to help your marriage you learn things
that going to help your business you
learn things that are going to help you
be happy as a matter of fact one of the
things we learned from the sages is that
the Tor since happiness is a spiritual
feeling and the Torah is spiritual the
only
way for us to achieve the spiritual ual
state of happiness is by feeding it
something spiritual meaning you can feed
yourself as many cars as you want as
much money as you want as many millions
as you want and I'm not telling you like
I came from a poor poor place I made
many many many millions of in my life so
when somebody tells you money is the
root of all evil and the know never had
money it's a little difficult to I came
from that I had a lot of money and I
made a lot of money and I'm telling you
whoever came up with that statement is a
genius but the reality of it is that it
doesn't make anyone any
happier at all not even 1%
happy why because happiness is a
spiritual feeling the Torah is something
spiritual even though you see this book
as something physical the lessons you
learn from it Are Spiritual the impact
it has is spiritual meaning that the
only
way that you can become happy is through
the
Torah so to sum it up and finally I the
sh
today when I thought about today and the
sh today I thought about that client
Henry Henry brought an investment to me
and he told
me I want you to look into this
investment and I thought to myself after
I noticed that this is a Ponzi scheme
it's a scam and they're going to take
his money and run with it but I knew
that he believes their story he even
likes the two guys that are pitching it
the two guys that are really nice guys
had a nice
bio even nicer than the one that Warren
read earlier
today one worked for the US Open the
other guy worked for I think
Disney and he liked the guys and they
came over his house and they had
dinner and it was a big bag of Lies One
Lie above another lie and above another
lie and it was such a small small small
bit of Truth
and that's the secret of all big lies
all big
lies have a little bit of Truth in them
the world we live in today and the
beliefs we have today is one big Ponzi
scheme the Ponzi scheme that we live in
is that we can do whatever we want the
Ponzi scheme we live in is that it's
okay if we don't follow the Tor I'll
figure it out when I get up there I'll
talk to God he's a nice one they say
he's a he say he's Mercy
so forgive me what's the big deal that I
don't keep Shabbat what's the big deal
if I do whatever I want what if this the
big deal if I never learned more than
the sh today what's the big
deal that's our logic that's the Satan
that's the evil inclination the panzi
scheme we live in today is leading us to
believe that we can do whatever we want
we have no
obligations and I was thinking of about
Henry and I said how do you start a
conversation to tell someone the
truth when all he's ever heard was
lies and I hope that
today we've identified a small part of
the truth because most of what we have
in this world is lies the goal is to
find a diamond in the rough it's called
the Torah
take that
truth hold on to it get closer to and
get to our purpose unless you guys have
any
questions we'll have even more people
that next
week you might address that it's not
part of the
