[Music] welcome to the par starts off describing the procedure of what's to be done to an EV who chooses after six years that he'd prefer to stay with his master rather than go free the says quotes the that asks why is this specifically his punishment why is it befitting for his ear to be pierced answers the ear that heard at and he decided he wants a human Master this guy has to have his ear pierced Mar teaches us a powerful lesson in spiritual complacency this servant you have to understand didn't sign up for servitude he was sold due to a financial hardship after he stole that now he wasn't able to pay back so he was put into this situation but after years of servitude he preferred that stability knowing where his next meal was going to come over Freedom how sad so his ear is pierced to remind him and us that life is about growth not stagnation this applies to all of us sometimes we settle into comfortable able routine avoiding challenges that would push us to a higher level in Tora or personal development the Tor teaches that true true servitude is only to not to our habits our Comforts or even our fears let us always strive to be hasem pushing ourselves to grow rather than become complacent in where we are growing may not always be comfortable but it is the purpose of our existence [Music]
