I hope everyone is healthy
strong and happy physically and
spiritually today is passions
test Kiss Live which is
the birthday and the day of passing of
the Middle River the second the Bible
and Sunday will the mission be youth
history which is the middle of the
second is
his day of redemption it's a holiday he
was in prison and he was released from
prison
So today we're going to discuss the
thought of the week the connection of
the pasture
with the youth kiss of Texas in the
middle of heaven but first as usual we
start with a prayer which this prayer is
very famous which is directly related
with the concept which we will speak
about today and it's directly related to
the kagaza of the middle of that Bell
but also of the outer but the first
Chabad Ravi and that's the Posse in
Capitol hey
lovely keep it happy
he redeemed my soul and peace from
battles against me because of the many
who were with me
so this explains and this is also the
simple meaning how does the word
microwavely why is the word microwavely
translated as battle because my crevice
Lord close in the olden days battle was
hand-to-hand combat in the battlefield
swords
Etc
up close and personal down and dirty and
bloody
so Apostle tells us government says
he was redeemed in peace mccrublic from
these up close and personal battles
but see this as usual
shows the relevance the immediate
relevance to the person because what
could be more up close
then the enemy not from without but from
within
the number one subject I would say
people think about and deal with is his
own inner struggle the struggle of life
and that's dealing with your inner
the struggle between your Gates
of the kiss and you never said Bahamas
your Godly soul and your animal soul and
that's microv he's not sitting in the
seat next to you he's in you
like they're saying there's nothing to
fear but fear itself
so the inner
side of you that's your lazy self
the one that seeks Easy Street shortcuts
Etc that's the thing which we all face
everyone knows who they really are deep
down if they have honesty they know that
they have struggles they have
limitations and this is what the person
is telling us
the most important thing is how you
overcome your inner struggles how you
change yourself how you better yourself
that's the most difficult thing and
today we will talk about it but first
let's get to the partial in this week's
parisha there's another possum
says be showing
which is very connected to everything
we're talking about and that is the
perfect this week's passion is talking
about Jacob is on the Runa
he's on the run from his brother Ace of
his mother Rifka told them to run
because ASAP wants to harm you
and Yitzhak told them his father you
told him go find the bride so now he's
on the Run
and it's going to face the hardest years
of his life separated from his parents
the active ishtam that innocent
mild-mannered scholar academic sensitive
person now is on the run and is going to
his uncle who is the greatest gangster
of his time he's going to a house of
crime surrounded by con men scam artists
etc etc
so he had a vision he saw the ebishta
and he's now going the Posse says
God man this way that I'm going and he
will give me bread to eat and clothes to
wear
will be a God to me
then foreign
and whatever you give me I shall surely
tithe to you so I'm not getting into the
commentaries over here that speak about
whether this was a condition or not a
condition obviously most commentators
say it's not a condition yaakov is not
making a condition that if you do this
for me Hashem then I will do that but
he's basically telling himself this is
what I'm going to set out to do in other
words it was more like a mission
statement what he's going to do now
and it was very important for him to
drill into his head this idea before
he's going into a hostile territory
before he's going into a place where
confidence is not revealed he has to
remember what his mission is all about
to stay focused and to succeed and
having children as will happen is this
what it means Rashi said
means that all his children will turn
out to be good children going in the
ways of Hashem
and see this talks about it that this is
all connected and though I mentioned it
and desire and the madrish how really
the story of ayatiyaki
is the story of every Eid number one as
he sent down his soul comes down into
this world number two as this heat goes
into Exile in other words the story of
yaakov going to Haram to love on is the
story of every single year as he faces
trials and tribulations and he's
uprooted from his natural home and he's
sent on a mission and he's meant to be
triumphant in the mission
who's he talking to usually when it says
he has to repeat it to someone else
what does it mean over here Lambert so
number one based on what we just said
Layman means Jacob is telling himself
these things the whole time beggar
little buddy she goes I miss this misses
I compare the garments I'm talking
according to the casino interpretation
um
[Music]
has to keep on focusing on doing Tyra
and doing mixes and the shaft is
referring to this Sparks that are the
physical objects because with shafty
they have to be returned they're not in
the realm of Holiness it's not like
learning and davening a Jewish learning
a diving that's one sort of Avada one
sort of service but then this is
and I heard a word
that what does it mean late might
immediately Kim is like Layman
once heard that one of the ways a person
succeeds in Godless
if he's living with Hashem all the time
he always says he knows his success it's
not based on his own
brains and talent but whatever he looks
at in life in whatever situation he's in
he's always saying
if Hashem will help me meaning to say if
I keep myself connected it means Hashem
this will happen it's all about Hashem
living with Hashem the whole time
now what I'm going to say is connected
to assistant the secret Cafe on YouTube
we mentioned that it's the of the
mythology
very interestingly it says as follows
the alterable also was imprisoned and
it says that when he said the person
that we mentioned before he was notified
that
he was notified that it will be redeemed
guess what the same thing happened to
the middle of ever when he was saying
he was told that he's going to be
redeemed
but the rep explains what's the
difference between the fact
that
the actor Rebel was notified when he
said brother and when the middle of
notified
the differences as follows Why without
them saying these words
it's Capital nun hey
was notified on a Tuesday he was
redeemed on a Tuesday game shlishy
because of the way the tillum is divided
according to the days of the week
and that she's usually 30 days
sorry there's the way the tomb was
divided in the days of the month
which is 30 days
there's the way the tomb is divided
according to the Hamish can I get saved
and it's the way the tillum is divided
according to the seven days of the week
now when a person's going through a
crisis emergency we say say the to him
as it's divided according to the days of
the week so if you're going through a
crisis and it's a Monday say the tilling
for you I'm shiny for the second for a
Monday not for
the second day of the month
so now since Donald was in a crisis he
was in jail
so therefore he was saying to them not
only the way he was you test that day he
said to tell him the way it was divided
according to the month but on top of
that he was also saying to him as it was
divided according to the days of the
week so he was saying the capitulas that
are connected to the way it said
according to the days of the week which
is Tuesday and in such a case capitalone
is set on a Tuesday
was because it was the 10th of the month
and noon hey is part of
the way the tillum is set up according
to the days of the month it said on the
tenth day of a month that means that the
connection of shown to the middle of his
Redemption is more direct we don't have
to say that the collection is because it
was an emergency because it was a crisis
even though by the military was also a
crisis but the fact is
the reason the connection of a saying
was because then it was the 10th day of
the month that's why he said
you that's why he said the person so
that means it comes out that the concept
of pod the basholam
is more powerfully directly connected
this idea of peace to the middle of then
to now
so how do we understand it
and the answer is
in the words
and put the bishop in
the word bishalan could be interpreted
as Bayes showing there's two ways to
peace
this is what the classical discourses
elaborate upon we have a level of Peace
which is
from above below and there's another
level of Peace which is
from below upward
and this is connected to the outer
rubber
the first Chabad River and the Middle
River it's explained that the Alta River
represents the concept of the concept
represents the idea of
the rabbit was the attribute of the
first of the ten attributes of Hashem
that represents
represents BINA
what's the difference
which is usually translated as wisdom
but will translate it as concept and be
now which is usually translated as
understanding but could also be
translated as comprehension
what's the difference
so in the words of my mashpia the melody
used to say many times is
means the way you're captured you're
elevated you're surrounded you're
uplifted by the concept
and business the way you bring down the
concept
so
what does it mean we have the sequence
the sequence of every intellectual
development goes
we're not going to discuss that
today we're going to discuss what is
this order of this sequence how does it
work
and the answer is as follows first you
have to get rid of your baggage
and then you have to bring back your
baggage what does it mean that means a
person
you have to make yourself you have a
difficulty you're studying something
you're in the Darkness
how do we get rid of that Darkness how
do we get out of the darkness how am I
going to see the light how am I going to
experience the revelation
and the answer is empty yourself
make yourself a vehicle for truth make
yourself a vehicle to make yourself a
vehicle stop thinking about what the
questions stop thinking about what's
what's bothering you just leave it by
the door all your difficulties or your
complexities all your complications
leave at the door and now try to just
concentrate on what
the person is saying concentrate on what
the problem what what what the issue is
attach yourself to the issue and and
empty yourself of your preconceived
notions leave your preconceived notions
your preconceived perception
at the door and try to open yourself up
what is the truth like in other words
you could say try to be try to be
objective as possible make yourself
objectable make yourself objective as as
possible
that's
what comes before Karma you do that
then you all of a sudden
you'll experience
array of Truth
a revelation
and you can't even describe it you can't
even explain it but all of a sudden
you're uplifted you're filled with a
feeling oh oh this is it this is it
that's when the light bulb goes off
it's the concept that's
then comes Bina after you saw the truth
then you have to ask yourself the
question
what were my questions
what were my difficulties what was
bothering me before go back to your
baggage
check all those things that were
bothering you before your questions your
difficulties your problems and see how
now all those questions you had before
are now resolved that's BINA
normal
order first you have
dementia you were taken enveloped
and uplifted by the truth by the concept
and then comes BINA
with the Manchester he draws down the
concept and he absorbs it internalizes
it
and then it resonates really from within
that's been
and this the river explains is what
means
this big show him which means there's
two
ways of Peace what are the two ways
there's one piece that came because of
in a way of Mata the truth is revealed
so now you feel good you're at peace but
then there's a second way of peace that
it wasn't because the truth
overwhelmed you but it's coming from you
and this the river explains in a
brilliant explanation what's the
difference we see the Jewish custom it's
amazing how the devil explains
everything there's a deep significance
we say
we tell a person peace be with you
and then the person answers
so it's interesting you know in English
imagine if I went to somebody I said
Peace unto you and then he would take
peace unto you the other person no but
by yet we say and then
we say
first we say and then and then the
person answers
so why is it like that so humorously
could say number one because you know
there's a famous joke why do Jews answer
every question with a question
and the answer is why not
that's one thing that is another word
that represent many times I forgot the
details that there was a certain goddal
and it was called the Ipsy he always was
able to say the opposite sort of logic
and the joke about him was that when
he's going to come La Milo when his soul
is going to ascend on high
when after he passes on and he's gonna
stand there you know before the judge
Etc so they're going to say you know
let's hear how you were so great in
Torah say a purple say some tamurik
talk some deep vanilla analytical
discourse
so they say when he comes to Milo you
know what he's gonna say he's gonna say
Hashem and say I'm the opposite you say
something
you say something and now and I'll knock
it down because that was his nature
but over here the rebel says
what's the concept of shalim
because first comes shalam alaikum
that's the first level of
Shalom that comes from the person from
above from without from above he is
impressing he is imposing he's showing
him unto you like the idea
but when the person responds
that means that the Shalom is not only
coming from without from above but it's
coming from within from the person
it's a different level of Shalom and
that's how it works when one person says
that represents the show must come from
him
but then comes a show language coming
from you from within abena sword of
Shalom as we explained before
so now we understand
there's two ways of showing
and this is in general also concerning
let's go for a second to talk about the
general picture of Hashem and the world
in general the rambam said that the
whole purpose of the Torah was lastly
shoveling by them to make peace in the
world hashem's name is also showing
what's the idea of shalim there's a
tension there's a tension between
godliness on the one hand and the world
on the other hand what does peace mean
peace means that we're going to resolve
it we're not going to see attention and
a dichotomy or a split or a division
it's going to be harmonious a Unity
but what's the ultimate unity the
ultimate unity is when it's
been shown this one showing which is
but there's a great Revelation and that
permeates everything
and takes away the tension and a
divisiveness and separation but then
there's a deeper level of Shalom which
comes
that the place itself agrees and goes
along with it because it's coming from
within they relate to it
and this also the rebel says is the way
it's explained the famous saying that
said that abished is outs when outside
Hashem is everything and everything is
Hashem which means there's one level of
unification where we see how Hashem is
everything sometimes we see a greater
Revelation and that great Revelation
permeates Earth but then there's another
level where we say everything is Hashem
we look at the everything and from the
everything we see Hashem and this is
really what's going to be the ultimate
when Sheikh comes it says divide is
going to be the revelation of Hashem
and all the flesh will see which means
the flesh will become different the
flesh itself will cry out and reveal and
demonstrate godliness so now let's get
back to the outer rib in the Middle
River this week's parishes parishes
and we say with shafty be sure we're
emphasizing not only the first day of
Shalom which is the way of but we're
emphasizing bishom this base show him
there's two levels of show them and if
we're talking about the week of a Yeti
and the week of test Kiss Live coming to
youth Kiss Live we have to explain the
the superiority of the second way the
way where it's the way of Bina is
From Below upward it's in the way of
and this is the resolution we have to
make
on test Kiss Live and youth kiss
everyone knows that the Middle River
after that stalkers without ever passed
away
was known more famous in the middle of
his time
he was looked upon as the PowerHouse and
he he was the one who engaged in many
public debates with many of the
opposition and won them over and he was
known as the great gown in in nigletair
passed on
people thought who knows what's gonna
happen now
and the middle of it but not only
didn't it weaken
the the doctrine
but it became much more powerful much
more greater much more expanded and
that's why as we know that's also
similar to this
just a DOT a seed a spark Bina
represents expansion and broadening
like a river we have a Wellspring that's
just like drops tip and tipping and then
we have the north the river which is the
great expansion and this is what the
Mito River did which by the way I didn't
mention this before that's also the
explanation talking what we said before
if it's a shelter malaikum alaikum
whether you're uplifted by the concept
or absorbing it internalizing that's the
difference between Terra oil
the safer downtown
the safer that he wrote It's called
Taira because I represents and the safer
the Mitra is
and it's explained ear light
when it goes into a room it doesn't make
the room
really
glow-in-the-dark room
the light is only there because there's
an outside Source light comes into a
room and illuminates the room but the
room really didn't change
it's the light coming from an outside
Source what's Terrace
when a person has a life in a body you
don't feel like you have an outside
battery an outside Source giving you
life the whole idea of Life highest is
you are alive your body becomes alive
not like there's something else in there
giving you life but the body itself
becomes alive through the shaman so
there's two ways something can operate
there's one way where a light comes in
and it doesn't really permeate and
become absorbed where it's going
and then there's another way where we
talk about life that comes from a soul
when it goes into the body it becomes
one totally with the body there's no
greater unification of two things than
the soul in the body that's how much
they become United the body becomes
alive and that's the way Bina Works in
contrast
method is a great light it was a new
truth and it permeated intellect it's a
part of intellect and that's only the
beginning of every intellectual process
starts
but then comes
it really really permeates it really
really resonates so and this is going
back to the history of the afternoon
passed away the middle came along and he
made certain Customs he made that every
hospital comes to Lubavitch and spends
time and hears the discourse has to now
review this discourse whatever he's
going to travel from Lubavitch back to
his home wherever he stopped in every
every town in every village he would
have to repeat the Hasidic discourses so
that means you have to really absorb it
if he's able to repeat it he had to
understand it better
so we see that the metal rubber also his
discourses
a minor at this course that Donald Trump
ever said there could be two pages the
middle it could turn into 40 pages so
this is the resolution we have to make
we have to learn hasidus in a way not
only of Bina bring it down bring
examples analyze it translate it in a
way that you're never shabbaham
misunderstands it and we all know the
most famous wishes said when two young
life
two young men encounter each other in
the street they should be talking about
two levels of unification of godliness
in the world so this is such a great
standard that we have to make this
resolution we should learn more
dive into it more it should become more
part of our lives our conversation
should become elevated and have a higher
standard so David should have helped
that through our leader of
psychosa so our learning cities will
bring the day now on Main of the gulaima
take it from
the bowel game
every single person needs to be helped
and whatever here in his life that needs
to be helped should be helped take of me
and Mama
