after 24,000 telling me them died
vickima started over again and he had a
new group of talmidim and there were
five main tell me them and from the five
the top one in fact he said this talmud
that it's enough that Hashem and I know
your greatness because nobody else
relates to your greatness
and who was that Talmud is shimon ben
your high imagine that maybe Shimon
vineyard high was the one who took a
versatile and miss citizen a fish and
did it right he was able to do it right
when he came out of the night it not the
first time the second time and he said
to his son mini died Loyola MonaVie Otto
so if Shimon was stayed awesome in Lhasa
he spent 13 years in the minor learning
collar theta but he didn't expect that
from everybody else he knew that's the
right way to live but he didn't expect
it from everybody else and he told us on
Dalai Lama av I thought it's okay we can
be this way that we'd have to make
everybody else be this way live and let
live so looking the story the whole the
whole story the whole night 7mb shimon
spells it out for us
well this is you know the out that ever
says that really say this at Ida I can
lose him in the Agatha of Gomorrah these
are not just stories these are say they
cetera so what's the next thing that
happens so that me Sherman tells his son
die LeMond you out thoughts okay but
that he says since a miracle happens for
me and he learned it from Yankee Aveeno
he learned a lesson from young Covino he
says
since a miracle happened to me I want to
show my gratitude to a show hazel I'm
gonna go what does he say
ask him no son let me go fix something
there's a big deal there let me go fix
something he didn't say let me go fix
somebody he said let me go fix something
big difference let's talk about it like
this you get up in the morning and you
dive in chakras and you finished opening
and you take off your tilt will you
touch your filling again until tomorrow
well the truth is mossad out of us if
there are Jews anywhere in your
immediate vicinity who are not putting
on filling you have a feel to touch it
fill it again until she
it's your problem there are Jews who
either don't know it fill in our or know
what it is but don't think about it
daily or think about it but aren't
motivated to actually go through with it
and put it on you have to take care of
that that's a problem you have to fix
that situation you don't fix the person
you don't fix the person first of all
people don't need your fixing people are
perfect the way they are the situation
is a is an unfortunate situation if you
know about there are Jewish children in
your neighborhood are not getting a
culture you know that's a problem
so know be part of the solution if you
know I'll give you something that's
maybe a little bit less challenging
although I really encourage everybody
bring your filling to work bring your
fill into the grocery store
Shems a finished you know put fill it
out with you but but I'll give you
another I'll give you another assignment
in addition you know there are singles
in your neighborhood who have to go find
the Shabbos invitation every single week
and who are struggling with profound
loneliness every single Shabbos you know
that that exists within so if you know
the situation exists be part of the
solution but you're not fancy people
you're not fixing the person you're
fixing the situation so it's not like
every shipment heard about the situation
he said oh you mean there's a there's a
case of Suffolk torna and this Cohanim
okay I know what we have to do we have
to put up a sign to tell Kahana you
should be careful that they're Suffolk
DOMA here right
he didn't fix people he fixed a
situation when you help a year and the
greatest thing you can do for Hashem for
your father
there's to be mikata of one of his
children when you help a year to do a
mitzvah you're not fixing the first of
all neshama is perfect and a shaman
doesn't need fixing so you're not fixing
him but the neshamah is in an
unfortunate situation he's in a
situation where he doesn't know about
his inheritance or he doesn't or he
knows about it but he doesn't think
about it or I don't know if you've ever
met such people they know about their
inheritance they even think about it
talking about their spiritual
inheritance madoff shakila's yankov the
toyota but they had negative experiences
while they were being exposed to it and
so they have a conflicted relationship
with the English kite and it's hard for
them to do what they need to do and if
you have discuss to be part of fixing
that situation not the person with the
situation by well how do you fix the
situation and not a person how do you
make sure that it's because it's just a
word game that's just semantics are
calling it fixing a situation and I'm
not telling you to do anything I'm not
telling you I know what's good for you
I'm just making opportunities available
excuse me sir did you put on fill it
here they are so if you hadn't thought
about filling I'm reminding you of it
maybe you thought about it but you
weren't motivated to actually put them
on I'm putting them in front of your
face
they're here if you don't know how to
put them out I'll put them on you my job
is to improve the situation
