let's say bread and butter
hazak has a hub which is called the
langley of the jewish world
and they just you give them a name of a
person that is not in jewish school
you give it to the secret missions and
they'll just make sure that the person

[Applause]
every time i get hooked up
you can hear it okay
you can hear in the back
every time i get hooked up to the mic
i feel like uh somebody preparing in
hamas a suicide bomber sending suicide
but the way i go into my missions let's
let the evil inclination commit suicide
not us
okay and the evil inclination wants you
to think
why is he called evil because he's
negative
eagle clay says you're never going to
get a shidduch you're never going to be
successful
you're over the hill you're past the age
you don't want to know when laser brodie
found his real zebu
how old he was
late 30s
but when he went and found what i found
it was worth waiting for
worth waiting for
i'm going to tell you a story
true story
and this is a story that happened by
rabbi kaim kanefsky
the great of the generation
he left us he left the physical world
just a few months ago
there was a young man
and
a young man who was brokenhearted
he would go
on a shido would last for him one date
one date and he bit refusal this guy had
so many refusals he had dozens of
refusals
he's a wonderful guy great personality
best guy in yeshiva
wonderful family with a good name but he
had a problem
he had this great big scar on his face
that started on his eye went all the way
down his cheek and close to his neck
it's great scott
so
uh shotgun would talk to the girl's
family and talk about this guy's malad
shotgun would say everything except the
scar
he said wait when the girl sees him and
he hears him and this maybe she'll like
him
so after he got refusal 38
he was broken really broken-hearted and
he was already about
27.
he had been in shidduchim for six years
he was learning he didn't want to go to
china before
six years 36 and said he even had a he
had a about every two months okay
36 she took him in six years
after refusal 36 or 37
he went to rabbitheim kanewski
and he sat down and he got in
and he started opening his mouth he
couldn't say he just broke down crying
he cried and he cried he cried
and
the rapper says
right away he didn't have to tell robbie
hennig
why i was there
and raphael kenowski said in yiddish
he said your next
is okay don't worry just trust the shem
go with the muna your next is going
to be okay because you're gonna you find
her you're married
but he says rabbit
rabbit heimki said to him but i've got
some
i've got some training to tell you what
to do on the next
he says robbie what'd i do next
doki stop crying
he says right away
tell the young lady before she talks sit
down with her and tell her how you got
your scar
okay didn't know what what tell tyler i
get to call tell her how you got the
scar
they got shido i think was number 38
maybe around 37.
and he does exactly the godolador the
greater the generation the great rabbit
generation said to him sit down and tell
her first thing how you got your scar
so they wanted the to where they
wherever they met and had the
and he went in showing the right size
she wouldn't decent scar right away then
they sat down then he looked straight
away she saw the big scar and he says
you know how i got my scar
she says how it's intriguing
since i was walking down
naveem street new shalom
and when right near where west jerusalem
ends and east jerusalem starts on the
way to the coastal
and there was a terrorist there this was
the time that every single day there was
knife stabbings in yerushalayim that's
unfortunately it's come back here at
sea's
but this was a time
some years ago one of the empty fathers
there was knife stabbed you slime every
every single time
and i saw a terrorist
about to attack a young girl
and i couldn't let that happen
so i went and i yelled at the terrorists
and i stopped that and the girl ran away
and the terrorists
that's what he did to me i fought him
and i fought him wait until he ran away
but before he ran away he succeeded in
cutting my face open
the girl started crying and she cried
and she cried now she's crying
hysterically like he was crying at rip
time
and he says what are you crying about
did i scare you did i upset you
she says no
i was the little girl you saved
that first night they decide they're
going to get married
this is hashem and ash
hashem's divine direction
this young girl
was 18
he had to wait because she was maybe
10 years old he had to wait for the
eight whenever he was six eight she's 10
or 12 years old he had to wait till she
was 18
and he's already
28 or whatever he was waiting for them
to get married
sometimes you wait today a couple came
to me
and
a guy lost his wife last year he's in
his early 50s
the woman was in her late 40s she was a
widow for 21 years he was a widow for
one year
and they just got married they said that
someone was walking down the street in
flatbush and they stopped there a
blazing you're here yeah we just got
married and also tell if i didn't know
this couple they knew me
that's of course they told me their
story
and i said it's a no-brainer
and she says well
you know why my my husband he waited one
year i waited 21 years
so rabbi went away 21 years i said
because he wasn't ready yet he's your
bashir
and you guys are going to have a
wonderful wonderful life but sometimes
you ever go to an exclusive restaurant
exclusive restaurant is haas versum not
some fast food thing
if somebody goes uh
somebody said that's not jewish goes to
mcdonald's he gets his hamburger how
fast
a snap
okay you go to a fancy restaurant it's
not prepared it's specially prepared a
shidduch is what hashem specially
prepares for you
and sometimes we have to wait
sometimes we have to wait i end the
thing with with my rabbits and she had
with me so what happened i had all types
of different
problems and
the one war in another war and i was in
the idf for the combat
and my rebels and she had all kinds of
problems hashem made big delays in our
life until we get together they're
talking about someone who thinks
everybody thinks oh yeah laser brody you
go around everybody knows you go around
the world your speaker your writer your
author
people don't know
let me tell you
something i said
i all have an expression people think
that this is uh some kind of hippie
hasidish expression when laser brodie
says beloved brothers and sisters the
torah says they were all sons and
daughters of hashem
and so when i speak to every jew it's my
brother my sister because the torah says
so bonnie
sons daughters so when i speak to you
it's like talking to my own kids
right to my little brother and little
sister
as if i'm the big brother big sister and
the only difference between us is that
uh my passport has got an older date
than your passport does okay my bed
but you don't get amuna from eating
chocolate ice cream
and it's funny that the people that are
delayed in shidduchim
don't be jealous of the ones that get
married 18 19 20 21
i get a lot of problems on my plate from
people
and sometimes
the young people
that are not ready for marriage and
they're not mature enough
and they go in and they find out that
marriage is not comfort city it's not
comfort zone
and all of a sudden see a guy says to me
he says rabbi she doesn't meet my needs
i say you know something tonight is the
earth side of rabbi shimon bar
rabbi
you know what rabbi shimon bar yohai
wrote in the tsar
he says that the man is the son and the
woman is the moon according to kabbalah
the moon doesn't have her own light a
whole woman's rhythm goes according to
the moon
the
hebrew month and her month it's all
rhythm of the moon and the guy works in
the sun what's the sun the sun shines
light on the moon when a guy says to a
woman she doesn't meet my needs
excuse me sir
you're a female
your needs you want your needs to be
fulfilled it means you want her to
influence you you want the moon to shine
on the sun it doesn't work like that
okay now the moon knows how to do great
things with the light she gets from the
sun
if you study agriculture you learn that
certain things in canada they can make
greenhouses and they can grow tomatoes
and cucumbers they can't grow watermelon
because the watermelon family grows
according to the light of the moon they
can only grow in an open field
and they can't grow in a greenhouse so
we see from this that the moon does
wonderful things that it gets from the
light of the sun but you have to be an
influencer so i said to this guy excuse
me
you got married this guy learned in your
shiver learned everything and i said you
had
instruction madrid he says yeah
i don't mean to discredit your madrid
maybe he told you the dry laws that uh
you can't
have this he's certainly geared before
marriage you can't you can't do that you
don't touch it and even after marriage
there's certain times where you can't
touch and the laws are pretty i called
you the dryer locus but it didn't teach
your muna i didn't teach you the man's
job the function
okay you've got to influence her so
there's a guy young couples that go on
and they have no idea what it's all
about she thinks marriage oh now i get
my
nine thousand dollar shaytan okay the
guy only makes four thousand bucks a
month he's gotta work
two and a half months just to put a
shaker on her head come on young lady
you didn't get married for comfort city
you got married to raise a family you
got married different to bring two new
showmans together and bring the shumas
into the world people don't know
sometimes so if when hashem doesn't want
you to get married
at age 18
it's a blessing
and i'll tell you why if you read our
book the three books of the three words
of amunah
it tells you about
milwaukee there's no one but hashem
that's three words of amuna
and we learned three things i'll give
you a real synopsis quick thing but if
you read the book it'll be like spending
four hours with me and you won't have
any more questions about amuna but you
can ask me all your questions about
amuna i'm not going to talk long i'm
going to take questions
the very first thing a jew believes in
and it's funny girls go to basiaco if
guys go to yeshiva
i guarantee you
if i ask i don't want to embarrass
anybody hashold that's the last thing i
ever want to do is embarrass the jewish
neshomer
but if i ask
sometimes i ask robayam what jews
believe in rabbis and they don't know
how to answer me you believe that
they know ashrae by heart they know
entire tract takes a gamora almost by
heart
i say recite me the thirteen principles
of the wrong bomb throat prism they
don't know it
they don't know it nobody ever taught
them a muna nobody ever taught them the
number one what the rahman's the first
principle i believe with the full and
complete belief that hashem he is
creator and director hashem's not
retired his creator and director
hashem the shotgun and the chatronas
they are only messengers
you don't ask a shotgun
for your
you ask them to be hashem's shaliah
and a best shot and the best shotgun it
are the ones that know that i'm not the
big man on the campus or big woman on
the campus
i know that everything i do is from
hashem
laser brodie cannot walk across the
street or tie his shoes or get out of
bed without hashem and much more to say
something that makes sense
we need hashem for every single
heartbeat for every single breath and
hashem is creator and director says the
wrong bomb
of every here you go you see i was
waiting for the yetzer to bug me
the yates here says okay lazy you're
gonna start talking to muna no that's it
when i was in baltimore i blew up seven
microphones
in minneapolis three speaker systems i'm
sorry that the kazakh robbie if
something happens to the equipment
that's uh
it's the answer because he doesn't
what i told the guys in kazakh i said if
you're bringing the shamans close to
shem and you're in a moon and you're in
kiruf and it's the same thing in
shidduchim
the evil inclination wants to do
everything in the world to prevent the
shidduch
because when you find your shidduch and
you get together this is building an
entire world and it's bringing mashiach
closer
and it's a gemura that says that for
every jewish neshoba that comes in the
world that brings mashiach closer
because she is going to come after
all the neshomers come into the world
and you do bring a closer yes she
doesn't want that
so how does the acer prevent the she do
first of all he doesn't want you
learning a muna no this you don't do
and secondly well if you don't learn a
munich you're gonna be depressed
and you'll be anxious and you're gonna
be doubts oh that's what the yates are
wants oh now you're depressed
who wants to marry a depressed person
so keep coming you go on a date and
the guy sees the girls not smiling the
girl sees the guy's not smiling and
they've been rejected so many times so
this is just another rejection that
likes a can you imagine a super bowl
player walking on the field i'm going to
lose the game no he didn't make it to
the super bowl that there's one thing
that an israeli commando learns and it's
in the blood
there is no option of losing who
captures victory
that there's a mission to do in my mind
the mission is already accomplished just
get a small technical difficulty is how
i'm going to do it okay solve the small
problem but the fact that we're going to
complete the mission no doubt about it
you put in your mind think positive and
think emunah and know that hashem could
do whatever he wants whenever he could
do it
but everyone everyone whatever
okay and i bless you all that in the
nearest future you're gonna be
gonna be kalot
why not a man you don't believe why not
a man i bless you with it okay and it
should be the whole thing the roof i
made no that single person said i mean
that shows that you lack a motor that's
what i came here for
you don't believe in hashem you don't
believe in yourself
you gotta believe in hashem you gotta
believe in yourself does anybody doubt
that hashem could send them the shidduch
no
in the nearest
future there you go
three-point swish
now the yetzer has committed suicide
because i had hope that i'm not saying
it it's if it's when
not if and when and i want to get
from queens from roslind from long
island please please please send me
wedding invitations
okay
and you could get my email from robbie
with you from the guys in kazakh they'll
tell you how to get in touch with me
because people tell me their problems i
hear the problems they're showing my
problems i have problems finding
but then they forget to tell me when
they find their schedule they forget to
involve me and say
i want to know it makes
i'm just as happy as as your parents are
because what's the difference between
me and your biological parents
you feel like you're all my kids hashem
that
come from eretz israel and it's the most
special special privilege to be here and
to encourage you to talk to you know
that your shidduch is on the way
but the good food the chef is preparing
the good food the chef is preparing good
you're about to get a fantastic
that's special tailor-made for your
neshama and what are you worried about
you do all you need is one
you don't need two you don't need to all
you need is one
and do you know why
you got a rejection
because it's not the right one
and maybe
the young couple
that got married for the wrong reason
were supposed to get married
to make a family to get closer to hashem
to do his mitzvahs because a woman can't
do her mitzvahs alone and a guy can't do
with mrs alone to accomplish the mitzvah
torah we have to have a mate
soul mate a man and a woman a man and a
woman
at two halves of one neshama this is
also rabbi shimon baruch he wrote it in
the tsar and breishi
and that's why
a man and a woman called paul get the
goofer
a half a body half in a shower and you
come together
and you see a husband and a wife that
they have shalom bite they look alike
they look alike because they're real two
halves of nashoma and the light of their
neshamas express they come together that
they look alike
and that's why
the expression
that king solomon says
it's why why is that okay maybe lovers
uh
according to aloha
you can't be lovers until your best
friends and the word of hebrew is reim
where's rahim come
you love your neighbors yourself you
don't get married
for your own gratification
mar needs to be met
you know
when i was 11 years old
in 1960
people don't believe that i'm i'm 73
because i'm one of the olden rabbi one
of the few rabbis in the world that's
also a fitness trainer
okay you can still
stay in good shape i have to be in good
shape to what i do the way i run around
the world okay thank you hashem
because it's
you have to
know
that
when you get married
you're doing it to do hashem some
mitzvahs
and you get gratification
but you're acting like hashem you're
giving
so tony i would oh why tell you my age
because in 1960 when john f kennedy ever
heard of john f kennedy he was president
united states
john f kennedy had a famous expression
he said ask not what your country could
do for you ask what you could do for
your country
and i say the same in shidduchim
paraphrase him
i say ask not
what your
partner could do for you ask what you
could do for your partner that's the
secret they shall invite
when we all take responsibility that the
shalom bite is up to me and this you
know now i'm going to tell you how to
find your soul mate really fast
number one
you ask hashem
hashem
find me my soulmate
number one bring a shaman to the picture
hashem i want you in my life hashem does
not there was once a movie by sidney
poitier the big actor guess who's coming
to dinner hashem does not come uninvited
to dinner hashem doesn't come uninvited
to your life hashem comes into your life
when you evolve hashem in your life
hashem i want you to be involved in my
life that's it hashem i want you you
know my nashamah you brought my nisham
into the world you know what's best for
me hashem but now girl they don't want
to tell nobody not the parents don't
know what to do not they're baptized i
tell them dude i know what's best for
myself uh uh guys
do you know in america american divorce
statistics this is still not just jewish
world but in america
first marriages and you can check me you
could google divorce certificates first
marriages break up in the first 10 years
if they were in the
major league baseball they'd be a losing
team nobody would pay you don't want to
be about losing team
only 48 succeed hold it nobody says they
succeed
because uh then they go and they get
married again
second marriages in the first
first 10 years of a second marriage
only 38 succeed 62 percent break up
and then what do they do
some people like in hollywood they
change their partners like they change
their socks they go into third marriages
of third marriages are destroyed within
the first 10 years of marriage
only 13 of a third marriage stays viable
after 10 years but nobody said maybe
after 12 years once after 10 years
nobody had no efforts then we don't want
to be those statistics and unfortunately
the jewish community
his influence from the outside world it
used to be that in the orthodox
community
there were
five percent divorces that declined to
seven percent divorces
the other community last thing i heard
it's up more than double 17 percent
divorces even though the general could
be oh we're only a third of the general
a third
it could and this is a this is a
consolation they're only a third of the
general american public it's three times
of what it was in the jewish world ten
years ago what's going on here
what's going on because people are
getting married for the wrong reasons
i need my needs fulfilled
and you see people and one thing as a
trainer
as a trainer why i became a fitness
trainer because people come with body
and soul connected problems i see people
have kyphosis
young people are hunched back at age 22
why because they walk
they don't look up they don't look up at
the sky they look at the cell phone and
they will talk tech messaging and some
get hit by cars for show them because
they're not crawling across the street
looking at their text message or tick
tock or what's up or whatever
no and they don't know how to
communicate
because everything is in icons and they
have these therms nervous thumbs the
thumbs don't stop
and young people don't know how to save
a compliment say thank you
that's a you know icons
a dub colon in
parentheses that's a smile no smile with
your mouth not with the color in the
parentheses
now do i see so there's a problem
it's a problem
need to get back to basics and basics of
the shams the first
law of getting married is ask hashem
ask hashem to help you
hashem says oh my beloved son my beloved
daughter you want me to help you you got
a deal
you've got a deal i'm waiting to see
what happens but not literally
to me
but crying and complaining that's it
hashem that like you don't like you're
crying complaining asham
hashem
if you didn't give me a soul mate now
you learn in three words of moon of the
sham is
creator and director
who's that creator and director ah
that's my father in heaven therefore
number three number one hashem's
creative director number two hashem is
my father in heaven number three
therefore everything hashem does in my
life is for the best
so hashem i know
even though i'm 25 26 27 35 36 37 i
don't know how much
time i get
maybe you've done it
to save me a divorce
maybe you've done it there's a couple
perfect couple
marry did the guy
picture book couple he's the number one
guy in ishiva she's the number one girl
in the bass yakov and everything is
picture booked until after two years
after the hoopa
and one of them comes down hashom khas
vishal with the terminal disease
nobody's jealous of them anymore
we've got pity
hashem knows what he's doing don't be
jealous of anyone you don't know what's
going on behind closed doors and they're
jealous of the girl that got married at
19 and you're jealous that the guy that
got married at 22 don't be jealous
because maybe hashem didn't want you to
end up with a sick spouse and hashem
didn't want you to enter another cup of
writing right in israel neighbors
married after kids book hashem beautiful
family boom boom boom boom boom
five kids the woman's 28 he's 32.
last year in iran
no longer
don't know
hashem as savior hashem is doing is
delaying you for the best you know the
story and this true story good aaron's
his role we live in the land of amuna
a girl was in jaffa street near shalayam
and a bus didn't stop for her and she
ran back and she was angry she had to
get to work and if she missed this bus
she's gonna wait 15 minutes for another
bus and she banged the door the guy
wouldn't stop the driver wouldn't stop
why did you not stop and she yelled at
him she almost cursed at him
okay the bus went two stops and boom
terrace bomb suicide bomb on the bus a
young lady do you have any more
questions any more questions about
hashem
no then all of a sudden she saw the
delay
hashem
how many people that missed the bus and
it it turns out that mr missed the
subway into manhattan and if they made
the subway on time and he made his
office in the 38th floor of twin towers
on september 11 2001 and hashem made him
miss the bus
no he was angry about missing the bus or
missing the subway whatever
don't be angry about the delay i promise
you i'll sign a paper that is all for
the best
and when you got not if when you get
your zevo
and you see the wonderful zebra you get
you're going to be embarrassed how you
doubted hashem
but don't want to go there put it aside
now hashem i know
you will send me my seafook and hashem

the second thing you've always showed me

uh you know what rebbe nachman says
about money
rebbi nachman says one of two things
happened to money
he says either hashem takes the money
for the person or something takes the
person for the money but they don't stay
together
and i've seen a couple
a young woman
from a very very fine rabbinical family
in your shalom
and her husband was a baltruva from
germany
her sister's all married to call her
guys she don't want to be a cop her call
a wife she want a guy with money
she married
a german jew was learning in asia torah
and her parents said no this is not for
she knows you want to go to bed but i
don't want to be poor modelling sisters
for the first year she was rolling in
money
the second year she married for money
the second year the guy wasn't a talmud
like uh their sister's husbands
thank you so much
the second year
there was an intrigue in the family
business
back home in berlin
and they kicked the young man out of the
business
all of a sudden he's got the wrong
founder says he's got no income no
nothing
and so what did this young man do
it was meanwhile about shuffle
he's looking the family was they had
some i think he started
listen to this
from a shomer shabbat shambha shabbat
learning torah
he started selling and i'm using nice
terminology women's lingerie
on amazon on the internet
okay so selling women's lingerie on
amazon and internet
he was looking at pictures of women
dressed
like all day long
and it wasn't long before the kippah
came off and it wasn't long before he
started
eating non-kosher and being away from
home and she was left already
with one baby and another one on the way
and a husband off the derrick and he had
meanwhile had taken her they left
there's this world she left eric's world
no family
no support system
husband
brought you this kite out and just went
to raise her to raise her kids
she married for money
he married for good looks i could tell
you horror stories about guys that marry
for good looks
all of a sudden something happens
and
she has
a difficulty
a tumor
and the doctors have to operate but the
problem operation the tumor is very
close to the eye that she's left with
this big scar in her eye
hospital only married for good looks
you're married for the wrong reason
and not shame shamayim that the reason

sudden you left but wait a second i'm
going to give you the best reason in the
world to get married and if you listen
to me you're going gonna find your
soulmate very fast we said first involve
hashem second thank hashem third
look for a good heart
[Music]
look for a good heart a good heart
it doesn't

a woman like a good figure does after
her second or third child
a good heart doesn't leave a guy
even though he made a bad business deal
and he lost money a good heart is what
it lasts in a good heart is what you
grow old to 120 with
the three laws find a good schedule
you go with these three things
strengthen the muna involve hashem in
your life
thank hashem and look for the good heart
and you've got my blessings
that in the nearest future
i say for the third time kazakh that
every one of you should be a hassan and
kala with a great seavook amen
go ahead
yes
we promised a q a
and some of you sent in questions call
me a big boy oh man
and we are going to take some of the
questions um this is what
i actually do dating coaching myself
and two
so some of these questions have also
come up with people i've worked with
um two program notes there's a
gonna be a shotgun table over there
later for whoever wants to meet shidduch
and the rav swarm which you mentioned
which already uh best seller on amazon
will be available right after this
speech
they're all over here and they are
amazing i've learned many of them myself
be happy and absolutely get them
pre-signed and inscribed if you sell
them on bait later don't i don't need it
cut
um
so one of the questions that one guy
sent in he says
you know
he's toddlers versus just
you know letting hashem run the show do
you lay back
and say you know it's pre-ordained it's
bettah and i'm leaving it to hashem or
or how much push do you have to do it
how much work do you have to do and what
if like the girl says no
um do you still try to push her and
convince her or is that a sign from
hashem so it's like two questions in one
lovely
thank you rav
reinberger glad to have you here and and
thank you for the question it's
important and ask me difficult questions
bo hashem because difficult questions
with the moon and they have answers
a person's established effort depends on
this level of a muna
it's like in bitcoin the more emunah is
at the inverse proportion the more a
moon a person has less hishtadlus
i know if i believe what ghazal tells us
in the gomorrah
that my bashar is destined for me and it
was declared 40 days before i was even
born i'm gonna get her
she's gonna get me that's it there's not
gonna be there's no mistakes hashem does
not make mistakes
shem does not make mistakes so it
depends on the person's level so basic
thing what he could do
i'll give this
a hasidic story about rabi zusha for
nipali
reby zusha's emunah was perfect
his holy students was a sit and learn
torah
and he didn't work he didn't earn money
and the stories about how he got food or
people and all of that bring him food
and he would say in yiddish he'd look up
in the sky and he said hashem's hungry
he would say look up in the sky and said
hashem zusha he wouldn't even talk to
himself in first person first president
was only for hashem and third person
like it was nothing hashem zush is
hungry
all of a sudden somebody would come with
something leftover food and favorite
toast called they put it put it right on
his plate that would suppose it's his
level of ammuna but we all have to know
the level of a muna you can ask for the
love he knows the rav of the killer yak
vodka of
what does my statlet need to be a person
to know what level of ash toddler should
consult his rabbi a spiritual guy
someone that knows him but i'd say
basically
all you have to do
is pick a shot in your trust or your
parent trust okay pick a shot that you
trust
tell them what you're looking for finish
put a smile on your face
you don't have to call 54 chat honey you
don't have to call this hashem sin
and that's why it's so so important
your biggest
your biggest effort in finding a shinto
is strengthening the muna but
strengthening the more you strengthen
the muna then the less
you have to break your head against the
wall okay
that's in
my answer for that hey
uh the rub at the rub said bring it on
the tough questions so we will and also
we have
balanced ask
answer also questions so
this comes directly from a boy i worked
with and also a someone sent it in
we have
the rev mentioned that the bus blew up
and when it went away
so
but the other half you got saved from
the bus but somebody else's father never
passed away in my run
somebody else's cousin
somebody else's son
and they're unfortunately bad things
happen and they're hard and you have to
understand and and have been taken
that the rav always talks about and it's
important but
this boy asked me he says intellectually
i know it
but how do i not feel bad when my friend
has it so much better than me and i'm
suffering
i don't have money and i i struggle with
difficulties and and
i don't want to go through this guy's
whole life
but
people have trouble and they struggle
they have their heart broken a boy says
no a girl they were really into just
says
you know i don't think you're the one
how do you take it from that level of
intellectual and bring it into your
heart and really really feel it
in israel there's a custom
a 10th anniversary custom
israeli husbands
for 10th anniversary
they buy their wife either a batik a
great big batik
or a 10 000 piece puzzle
and the wife they're a tenth year of
marriage she works on this boutique on
the tent beef puzzle and when she
finishes it the husband takes it and
buys a great big frame
and a frame i did in israel that's about
translated in dollars it's eight hundred
dollars it's a lot of money in israel
you're talking about like
more than 2500 shekels and you put it in
your living room
and this is the husband's pride and joy
this is my wife's handiwork
okay
now
if
you buy your wife a 10 000 piece puzzle
and she loses one of the pieces
and there's
9999 pieces of the puzzle the one piece
of the puzzle is missing
are you going to spend eight nine
hundred dollars a thousand dollars for a
frame and put it up because it's got a
gaping hole in the middle even a little
hole
nobody would do it because they're
perfect
okay and if she did the petite
and she left a few needle points or
empty
it's imperfect nobody would frame that
okay
we know
that something
missing one piece out of a 10 000 piece
puzzle
it's it's blemished
when it comes to a puzzle of a person's
life
we don't even have one piece out of the
10 000 pieces
this is the answer
when somebody looks at somebody else
they got it better than i do
they got a zebra they got a better
partner so they got better health you
don't know what's going behind closed
doors
you know why americans spend so much
money on gillette and sd louder and and
chatting and gyms and all kitsonius
outside exterior you don't know what's
going on behind the closed doors
you don't know
whether one of the
members whether his wife or her husband
suffers
from acute anxiety
from clinical depression oh they come
out they make up and they smile on the
outside it's all a plastic smile
everybody one thing that's the
difference between israelis and
americans
americans say how are you
why do you think once you come over
sometime an israeli says no coffee at my
house eight o'clock
they say when you say something no how
are you how i have to come with the
plastic smile no not that narrative's
role
and not that no
people say americans they say oh the
israelis they're so impolite they're so
direct no they say what they mean
they say what they mean what you see
here
the person that you think has got it
better you don't have one piece of his
puzzle hashem's got all tail pieces so
you need the whole printout to see oh
well maybe you look at this guy in shul
and he looks so together and a girl
looks at my husband's got a paunchy
stomach and this guy looks like john
travolta in flash dance and she's
jealous of this guy's husband or he's
jealous somebody's wife okay but they
don't know the kids at home
do you know that they got a special
needs child at home
oh you want to change places with them
going to childhood on the autistic scale
is way up the autistic scale you don't
know what's going on behind closed doors
you don't know people don't publicize
in first stages from these when
they're getting chemo or we don't know
what's going on
don't be jealous of anyone because
hashem gives every neshama what they
need
and jealousy and amunah are exact
opposites jealousy is an emotion that is
one thousand percent evil inclination
and even
even when there's an expression cannot
suffering
that we it said as if jealous of someone
i'm uh
i'm jealous of rob bolliness he's a
bigger tom in hohem than i am and i i'm
jealous of of rav why by weinberger he's
a bigger balmoosa than i am no
and she said
it jealous it's it's not jealous
but as a role model
that i would like to be
the bob moosa that rabbi weinberger is i
would like to be the talmud that rabbal
and this is i would like to do
uh the cure of what rabbi miroff does i
would like to do i would like to be like
that but hashem knows
hashem thank you hashem that i'm laser
that's it
and this is a moon when you're happy
with your own lot in life
because the one thing now is the other
side of the coin they can't do what i do
but the chem gave me special aptitudes
and talents that they don't have and
that's why you have to love every single
jew because somebody else has something
that you don't have and you can learn
from every single person that's
as soon as we look for the good points
another person then we love everyone
so don't be jealous of anyone and be
happy with yourself
and how did you overcome jealousy learn
a muna
hashem created me for a reason
that the jealousy talking about in our
book path to your peak
path you'll be had to fill your
potential
and how not to be jealous of anybody
okay next question hold on hold on
let me tell you honestly straight answer
it's hard it's not easy the same way
that you go and you have challenges this
is part of the challenge
you're having
to go through the challenge
sometimes you get up and you're happy
for the other person
and sometimes you want to kill them
first it's okay
this is what life is about life is about
challenges
yes i should get i should feel happy for
the other person i should be a haro
nakoha but that is not what life is
one a harona koen was once in his in the
world time so yes you have troubles it's
okay
you live with it
ask a combination question
so the question is everything is by
sheridan we'll ask the first rabbi bella
nestle answer and then we'll take it
from rabbi brody we know everything is
by sharing 40 days before the tierrata
vlad is bot plony laploni
and the question is if everyone's by
shark
so how are their divorces and everybody
wants to know is it possible to miss you
by shirt and
but let's say you're in a you're in an
actual situation you're dating someone
and they're not holding where you're
holding
you're you're maybe a little more
religious and they're a little more
modern
um but they say they're gonna change do
you should they should you let should
you kind of believe they're gonna change
because you get along and it seems by
shirt
or do you go with
you know kind of it's hard to change it
maybe it's not a good idea
so
i want to ask her about him to expound
on the idea of bashar and is it possible
to miss you by shirt
and how much push do you have to give
and you stick to your guns
guy came to me
from a certain casitas
and he had big pressure
they said that the rabbi and
the rabbis are pressuring him to marry a
certain girl
and
there's this quality that he didn't like
about the girl
and
let's call it
a bad habit or something
he didn't like it it turned him off
and she knew it was a bad habit
everybody knew his bad habit
and the rabbi everyone tremendous
pressure of the rabbi the shock and
everybody she's going to change
no
she could say i want to change
but this is what you get
this is what you get
i want a person to say they want to
change and they'll try to change but you
don't marry something going to change
okay uh you know i'm going to be someday
a player for the nba no
lady's not going to play for the nba
and you don't get married for a promise
like that
you get married for what you have what
you see is what you get
and that's it and all that i'm gonna
promise marriage i'm gonna promise to be
more from i just now had
in
don't want to say where
but the exact same situation
where a guy wanted a girl a girl very
strong balastruva
and the guy that
recently thought he was show me shabbos
but it turns out that uh
he's still getting the car every once in
a while shabbos that he can't be
a little bit of a shomer shabbos either
chamber shabbos or not you can't be a
little bit of chaumer nagia come on dude
we're just happy to get ahead no no no
it's hands off shaman again means it's
hands off okay you can't be a little bit
of shelmer kosheros but then outside you
know every once in a while
stop it they know it's not like that
it's not like that it's a commitment
it's a commitment
if a person is committed to committed
christian says i want to do that
but can't make a promise nobody can make
a promise nobody could make a promise
about tomorrow not even that we can say
that's why we say every time we talk
about the future
we say one of two one or and two things
okay i want to do something with
hashem's help i have no control of the
future nobody has a life insurance
policy another minute
okay and we can't make a promise because
don't know if i'm going to keep it
so i said lean there they're going to
try
but don't get married on the sake of a
promise
promises that it's a check with no
checks that bounce
and after horror stories that anything
ever happened out of balance
okay people that get married because
they promised this and they promised
that they promised that they're looking
to get married and they go into promise
and then they're disappointed no
get married and this comes back to think
look for the good heart look for the
good heart you could take that right now
you can understand the good heart how do
you recognize the good heart
okay when you go on a date
and if you see the person right away
talks about oh i do this and i do that
and he says a lot of first person
singular or she says a lot of first
person singular the good heart
girls you know how you do the good heart
god wants to know all about you what
makes you happy
what makes you sad what do you enjoy
doing
what kind of husband are you looking for
what
this guy is all interested in me this is
the guy with a good heart this guy
that's giving he comes he does this he
does that he does that everything has i
me and it's egocentric and guys the same
thing with the girl
if her whole life is about her her
clothes and her makeup and her money and
this and that
she might look like a miss america
but a woman that doesn't have a good
heart
will be ugly promise you'll be ugly you
won't be able to look at her
maybe okay guys want they want the the
the buddies to look at hey look what i
look good looker she's got hey your
buddies according to torah i have to be
shown me and i am we talked about
shamira
they're not allowed to look at your wife
stop saying guys look at my wife that's
like hey guys come and have a ham
sandwich
and i thought
the rabbit will correct me if i'm wrong
it's easier to do chuva from a hand
sandwich than this from
ruining your eyes
because ruin your eyes goes to do it
directly to someone to a person hashem
the guy says he's sorry he had some kind
of craziness went to his head some it's
called the vulmus some crazy urge
but when someone
looks at
a woman does belong to this is
it's terrible it's terrible
and we see joseph at sadiq he was
willing to jump off the third the the
the palace in egypt and he didn't know
whether he was going to break both legs
when he ran out the window
but not to touch this woman not to look
at this woman that's insanity
okay so we don't do get married in order
for the guys to look at my wife
you know show other people pictures of
your wife
and the same thing you and your wife
it's intimate
and
proper talk in in israel language in in
the hasidic here we don't even mention
my wife i call her my home baiti
na vad baiti which are very very
uplifting and very clean and we don't
say anything don't say anyone to give
even a
a heal who
even that
another man should ponder say something
about my wife to another man she'd
ponder her no and he doesn't tell me
anything about his wife ponder
that the most intimate thing he will say
is his repetition
won't go anywhere more than that
and this is
this is the way it's got to be done it's
very
uplifted very exalted because you're
talking about
the holiest thing in judaism
finding your soulmate putting two souls
together
you know at a soul rabbisham
is your side he says in the
that the soul is a tiny spark of hashem
you're taking two sparks of godliness
of the essence we don't have no idea
what hashem is but we know that the two
nushomas are tiny parts of hashem sparks
of hashem and putting them together
what could be more uplifting exalted
gevaldic than this
okay so that
yeah i will tell you something about the
shirt
losing yourself making yourself
all these things are
for hashem to know
for us
you have to know one thing
you go out you have your rabbi
and if they guide you
and
someone told you no
no told you no
now
hashem has won the book for you
i don't know
whoever you end up with today in this
world
they're going to end up within shaman
why there are divorces
that's because of gil gulen that's
nothing to do with us
we live in this world
meaning i
if a rabbi is going to come tell me my
zevok is
some
girl in middle of the street which
doesn't
talk my language
doesn't is not on the same level as me
and she ain't gonna change let's say she
doesn't keep shabbos she doesn't keep
tara and she doesn't keep kosher she
just doesn't even know she's jews
someone is going to tell me okay this is
yours
i'm going to listen
her a nice day i think you're crazy
i to
we go out we don't care about bashert we
don't care about anything if it matches
and i remember it matches and i have
certain feelings
i get engaged
that's what akadeshwar wants from me
that's about it
now
this the names match the names don't
match i'll tell you a story from my
rabbis
there was somebody you should go to and
say excuse me oh your names don't match
don't go out your names don't match
don't get married so says i called up
his wife one day i said you should get
divorced from your husband
and
imagine the big rabbi calls
the wife says listen
says i should get divorced from you
so
the husband calls the rabbi says what do
you mean why are you ruining my shalom
by it what did i do to you says let me
ask you a question says do you know in
shemot do you understand says yes says
check your name and your wife's name do
you match
he checks he says in shaman they don't
match
he says okay the same thing that you do
to other people i did it to you
stop doing it
and i'll stop i'll tell your wife don't
worry i made that tikkun you could go
back your husband is a nice person so we
don't get married based on names
ambassadors we get name
married and based on who we go out is in
mat in
sometimes divorces is because a person
mistake sometimes it's godly i don't
know
we do not anesthetize
whatever is hidden is up to us it's not
up to us and i think with that we
finished the q a i see already a lot of
people are hungry and betrayed soon
we're going to start the bonfire
and we're going to leave the tana we're
going to have music enjoy your night
thank you very much all those that sat
down and all those that were too hungry
thank you very much shalom shalom
thank you everybody we have the music
right now we have the barbecue right
here we're going to start the bonfire in
a second the rabbi brodie's be selling
his books and signing the books right
over here
and we shall find them in the back table
over there thank you everyone for
joining us
