You have never seen a parking sign like this in your life, [music] and somehow it sits in a parking lot here in the Five Towns. Reserved for a big tzaddik. >> We're continuing our journey to station ourselves in front of [music] every single shul in the world. Today, we're at Khal Adas Yeshurun KMH here in the Five Towns. Let's [music] go check it out. No reserved parking for a rav, no reserved parking for a president, >> [music] >> just for a big tzaddik, because that's not a title reserved for somebody else. That's a title for every single Yid. [music] But what does that actually look like? Let's go inside. If you're a guest here on Shabbos, you might notice something [music] interesting. There is no shushik. And if it does get a little too loud, the rav just might get up and share a Torah to get the shul locked in for davening. It might be something like, "The greatest thing we could do for ourselves and for Klal Yisrael [music] is to focus on our davening." Funny enough, one of the members' children actually began calling them shush Torahs and started writing them down after Shabbos. Rav Yisroel does not focus on telling a [music] Yid what he's doing wrong. He focuses on reminding a Yid who he is and what he's capable of. And the measure of growth here is not how spiritual you look. Are you becoming humble? Do you love Yidden more? Those are metrics of success. No Yid is complete [music] without another Yid. And that's an idea that Rav Yisroel Zegatinsky connects all the way back to the Baal Shem Tov. Pnimius HaTorah, the Baal Shem Tov, is the cornerstone of this shul. And it's not just for adults, it's for kids, too. [music] They come to the fabrengens, they know the niggunim, they know the names of the tzaddikim. One member even told us that he loved the shul so much that he moved his entire family here to Lawrence [music] to be a part of the shul. The rav here takes lofty Pnimius HaTorah concepts and [music] brings it down to the community so that they not only can understand it, but connect to it and live with those ideas. But this place, in this unassuming building, is bringing so much light to the world. If you're here in Lawrence on Shabbos, be sure to check it out. It's incredible. >> Shema Yisrael Adonai Eloheinu Adonai Echad.
