SPIRITUALLY DANGEROUS PLACES

[Music] this is one of the things that's the most dangerous about today's world people allow a lot of secular studying a lot of news a lot of IM modesty a lot of things that seem good seem normal seem like they're positive ruin their visual ruin their relationship with you watch a lot of news you follow a lot of politics you watch a lot of TV you watch a lot of movies you know this uh that somebody reported or somebody said that some movie came out and they made a billion dollars in one day or some stupid number like that how many of those people that paid part of that billion dollars are Jewish a lot so you understand the point is that each time a Jew plays one of these video games each time a Jew watches these movies each time a Jew watches the news channel each time a Jew spends time on the internet looking at nonsense instead of looking at toah guess what they are creating a barrier between them and hasem which makes things seem unclear to them they don't know where the Salvation is going to come from how dangerous is this I'm going to give you one last story and then you can go to sleep but this story is worth it almost 80 years ago one of the ofman Shalom became a very important Rabbi in Poland but the war was getting hotter and hotter and he knew that because of his age the Polish government was going to draft him into the army now at the time wman was visiting America trying to raise some money and he got a letter from the student and this is what it says he says to him that he knows that they're going to recruit him into the army but if you could please speak to the America American and submit an affidavit to the American government and enable me to obtain immigration an immigration visa to escape the danger meaning tell the in America to sign for me so you can bring me to America and I can become a rabbi over there I get a visa to leave Poland why if I I can't just leave Poland tell our other rabbis to sign off for me so I come teach over there I'm a good Rabbi you're my you're my teacher help me out perfectly normal Shalom answers the following word for word I'm reading from his book I have received your letter but I am unable to do this the American institutions capable of bringing students over are spiritually dangerous places so what is gained by fleeing from physical into spiritual danger in so many words 80 years ago was saying the is at that time which was drastically better than today to say the least he says they have become spiritually dangerous places so by taking you from Poland where you have physical danger I'm going to put you in spiritual danger better off you die over there why why why is a spiritually dangerous place because early he writes a different letter and he says the not all of them but a good part of them started teaching secular studies giving people the impression that the secular teachings is just as important as we have no problem with secular teachings you need to learn a little bit of math even for Tor you need to learn language even for Tor for communication but when you start teaching history and math and the science and archaeology and all types of stuff as if it's just as important as learning about mosu now we have a spiritual danger better off you die in Poland what did say if he said this today they'd put him on if he was today giving you a shoe no beit in the world would accept him for a shoe me they just write comments about me on the internet why because that is so clean it already sees the end result he already saw 80 years in advance he saw once you start treating secular studies as if it's in the same level and magnitude as Torah 80 years later the teachers are going to wear miniskirts 80 years later you're G to have organizations that have dance parties for boys and girls like ber Bri and H and all of these organizations that call themselves Jewish organizations they have dance parties for young teenagers to dance together you know how I know I used to go to them they give you trips to go to Israel why to make more sins millions and millions of dollars and no one think there's anything wrong with it more millions are coming why because D to is lost that to is gone people think there's nothing wrong with boys and girls being boyfriend and girlfriend in fact parents think it's cute when the boyfriend that's 15 years old 16 years old is sleeping over their their house because he is their boyfriend of their daughter they think it's cute they see nothing wrong with it oh look they're holding hand they're like me and you honey people don't see anything wrong with everything that's wrong why it started 80 years ago we started looking at the secular world as if it's in the same level as the Torah World already saw this he says if you're going to look at both of them the same this is definitely spiritual death only a matter of time we're not saying don't study math we're not saying don't study science we're not saying don't study language you need to study those things but remember they are not in the same level magnitude of importance as to never will be never were never are they just not you have to remind yourself this constantly you have to use all of those secular subjects in order to connect to AOS how can you use math to connect to hm how can you use language to connect to hm how can you use science to connect to AEM if you're using it if you're learning those subjects purely for wisdom for for intellect then you have a serious problem because that all of what you're going to learn is going to Cloud your vision it's going to Cloud your vision to the point where when it comes push comes to shove and you're gonna have a test of life you're gonna fail miserably why because your connection to Hashem has a barrier has a barrier you don't think it's a barrier because all you do is watch the news all you do is know a little bit about politics what's the big deal the big deal is you have no connection to Hashem you think you do because you don't see anything wrong with it but when you see 15 and 16 year old boy and girl hanging out dancing in a street together you don't think there's anything wrong with it when you see two people kissing in public or you see a rabbi and his wife hugging each other and having the picture on the internet you don't see anything wrong with it you see a Jewish K invite a Christian for shabbaton you don't see anything wrong with it there's so much wrong but you don't see it the community is not seeing it why there's no D why because it already started a long time ago when you started looking at the secular subjects the same way as you looked at to this is the poison of so remember before you press the play button on the next movie on the next video on the next uh story in the internet of some kind remember if you already know ahead of time that you cannot use this to connect to a it's 100% poison either way it's poison it just depends what level just depends what level everything has a little bit of poison in it even the medicine sometimes has has poison in it but if you have zero way of connecting your new information about politics your new information about the stock market your new information about whatever subject you're learning to connect to a guess what it's 100% poison and that poison will only come to haunt you when you need it when you need your to work so this is how you remove yourself from this stuff it's not that difficult you simply don't press play that's it don't test yourself don't test your own don't spend so much time watching stupid things and this will save us any questions [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] e [Music] he [Music]
