Special Series - Strengthening Our Eyes | Rabbi Moshe Meir Weiss

[Music] what a privilege it is to be here today to speak for the holy organization of we know that there's certain things that aren't natural it's not natural to have a good marriage you have to really work on it men and women are different so that's something that you have to go against your nature we say every day in kishma we follow our eyes so not to follow our eyes is not natural it needs so I want to give you three quick ideas the first is that there's a carbonel the carbonel which is written on the rush is a very very holy writing and he says that by taking the ti in kishma and putting it by your eyes when you that's a schoa to be able to watch your eyes now we know that is when everybody holds the tias to their eyes and that's a schoola for good eyesight Raa did that but the Caron adds that by that's a schoa to be able to watch your eyes another powerful thought is what zilberstein writes in the in the name of the toest iron rebi and he says that if you're in the street in the store and you control your eyes from wandering from gazing towards what you shouldn't you've created an you fulfilled and at that moment you could ask Hashem for something and to me that's always an exciting thing I controlled myself I went against the nature Hashem there's something I'd like to ask you for the third idea is we know that when they asked her of in what Merit did you live long he said in the Merit of mening from a Ben and he was very strong about this somebody came to him with a lot of problems and R Shak said to him you should try to bench with a bencher things will get better a month later raak met him and asked him so how are things so the man says not so good rash so he says well do you bench from a bencher so he said most of the time so raak looked at him critically what do you mean most of the time so at one time I was on an airplane and I didn't have a bencher so said so what did you do so he said I bench my heart so he saidwell why don't you take out a piece of paper write benching and say That's How Strong he was now why is it so important to bench Venture so you'll say okay when you bench from bench you have more but had encyclopedic memory he sought like it was in front of him he also benched on a bench and I believe the answer is is because when you bench from a bencher you're getting your eyes in the Mitzvah if you don't bench with a bencher or you ding by heart your eyes aren't part of the Mitzvah when we get our eyes in the Mitzvah benching three bras one wow we strengthen our eyes and that strength from our eyes helps us when we work on I want to wish everybody that we should be to control our eyes and that Merit hasem should allow us after 120 to see the shine of [Music]
