you know when Shayna and I got engaged
you know we uh we of course discussed a
ring you know and and I was a little bit
nerve-wracking for me I did not have
very much to my name uh which is okay
you know that's fine and financially I
didn't I felt I still feel very rich
just not necessarily financially but I
wanted to be able to give her a you know
a beautiful ring she deserves that and
I'll never forget you know Shayna said
she told me that she knew I loved her
and that she didn't need a diamond ring
to prove it she didn't need anything
expensive a simple sweet sapphire ring
it's up here Evan's up here which as you
know this has the spiritual you know
allusions to God's Throne to thee to the
spiritual Heavens that's what she wanted
a sapphire ring that is doesn't come
anywhere near the price of a diamond
ring that's all her heart desired and I
was really so moved by this and it
really just was just another
confirmation that she was right for me
and uh and so I I I had more money left
over than I thought I would and so I
don't know if you guys remember this I
surprised her with a helicopter ride
which took us over the Temple Mount
itself so here's a picture
of us right as I was uh asking her to
marry me and I asked her to look out
that window if you could see it there to
look out that window
at the temple mounts
you know and as we hovered there in the
helicopter over the Temple Mount I
remember saying to her I said
probably not exactly these words but I
said you know Shayna you know as we know
the spiritual Temple
is already built it's hovering up here
in the heavens just waiting to come down
to earth I said please Shayna marry me
and together we can build a family in
Judea in the land of Israel a family
established upon love for Hashem and
faith in Hashem and may our family be
that final brick in the temple that will
bring the temple down from the spiritual
Realm
to the Physical Realm to bring light and
love and peace to bring Hashem to bring
godliness to the entire world
and so spoiler alert she said yes
and uh and that was great that was great
anyway so to bring It full circle you
know just as there are two different
shamans you know the sky and the heavens
there are two of everything including
two dimensions of Jerusalem
as the sages teachers Jerusalem the
physical and and spiritual worlds
there's also two dimensions of the Holy
Temple itself and it's our mission in
this world to keep our feet rooted here
in this world on Earth in in the
material realm as material realm As It
Gets in the real world to keep our feet
rooted here
and through living our faith
and living our trust
we can serve as a living testimony to
the Living God of Israel
you know and by living that tested by
being that living testimony we are
merging the Two Worlds we're uniting the
physical with the spiritual which our
sages say in the most mystical Realms
that is what hashem's yearning is for us
to serve that to bring the spiritual
world into the physical
