[Music] Welcome to our s Yumi viewers have you ever wondered why in the animal kingdom there is so much death and destruction killing carnivores and prey that we don't necessarily see around hopefully by the Human by the human race well let me tell you an incredible usud from RAM and from the betan from brisker based on our par and parro the the cloud that told us based on the the world was created based on the Torah which means that usually the way we understand is we all have parents and as a result of having parents the Torah told us your parents be your father and your mother but it's exactly a and it's very important to know this rule it's because in the T there's a mitvah that's why everybody has a father and a mother that's the way it works because the Torah said don't steal the Torah said not to kill that's why there is an innate nature within us not to hopefully be to understand what the true good is there's an innate nature in society unless raised otherwise to want to do good not to steal from someone else not to kill other people it comes from this place as opposed to an animal kingdom which has no Torah which has no beginnings of such a stature and doesn't come from those sources there's no there's no no Mania there's no there's no there's nothing stopping them from doing a similar thing there's nothing stopping them from going ahead and killing and destroying and being destructive in that type of way because the Torah is the one that gives that decides the rule book we think that it's because we have AAR so therefore the Torah says watch out don't look in the wrong places don't touch the wrong things stay away from what you put in your mouth it's the opposite it's because the Torah went and gave us those restrictions those 613 restrictions which we are also familiar with that now we have AAR in order that we should have a in order for it to happen it starts the other way around it starts from the fact that the Torah said it and as a result of that now instilled in us as to make sure to watch out why is this such an important lesson as they say what do we learn from here listen to a letter from RI and because the words of his rebi R is that it's it's it's heresy to think the wrong way you have to know that everything comes to the Torah what's the big deal so you know what he says RI this incredible thing because otherwise if you think the normal way of thinking that there's this world and I just have to keep the T then there's two there's two existences that exist in this world there's me and there's it there's me in the T as opposed to this way of thinking that we're we're explaining today there's only one the T the way of thinking is the world is a byproduct of this scenario that we call the Tor there's only one existence not two I'll give you an example two people go to work hand inand with the same nine-to-five job and the same salary one person is in completely different world than the other one because one person's whole world is all about the money that he's going to make how he can go ahead and invest it and what's he going to do afterwards and he's not thinking so much Beyond on that and you know what maybe I'll try to find time afterwards to do what I can do to be able to do a little bit for my religion if I can hopefully to be able to keep and maybe get my D the other person his whole idea from the beginning is just there in order to be M the Tor from the beginning to the end his day-to-day life is here yes I'm working I have to put bread on the table I have to do what I have to do but the focus is is of life is from the Torah and from there comes the bar Alma from there comes the whole entire world this man is living 24 hours in a world of Torah and it doesn't mean in the mid it could be also outside of no problem because it's all geared from One Source when people learn when they learn mik every day especially we're doing it over here Aliyah by Aliyah do you realize that day by day you're living and connected to a world of Torah day by day even though you're going to the outside world you're always anchoring yourself in a place of you're connecting yourself to the place that it has to be and this is the greatness of the Jewish people and this is how a difference that a person has to understand where we come from we don't live in a place where there's 10 subjects in the day when I go to school there's also English math and a little bit of gar our life surrounds around the Torah it was built from the Torah the world was created from the Torah and from there the world dresses around the Torah and that's the way we have to keep to our frame of mind and we should be able to take this lesson to be us to keep to our learning of MRA to be able to keep to our day-to-day learning and be able to take it all and to take it all to the rest of our lives shalom [Music]
