There was one time a guy on
[clears throat] a plane, plaintiff,
professor, successful, had lots of
money, lots of power, lots of
everything. And I had a son that every 5
minutes would ask him something. Abba,
can I have a drink? Aba, can I have
something to eat? Aba, can I get a
blanket? Aba, can I this? Aba, can I
[music] this? Aba, can I? Every 5
minutes, the whole flight, he's asking
for some. Of Kamitki was actually
sitting also with his son close. And
every five minutes his son says, "Aba,
do [music] you need this? Aba, do you
want a drink? Aba, do you want this?
Aba, do you want a blanket? Aba, do you
want to eat? Aba this. But aba, do you
need?" The professor was eating his
heart out the whole flight. How could it
be that me, professor, university,
Harvard, Bingmpington, whatever, Jam,
whatever university he's in. I'm running
the place, but my son is a little
monkey. Keeps asking for stuff. Turns me
into his pet. And this rabbi, maybe he
makes 500 bucks a week. His son is
serving him with joy. How could he be?
He eating his heart out. the end of the
flight. He says, "Listen, Rabbi, I have
to give it to you. You've trained your
son." Well, what do you mean? Look, the
whole plane, the whole ride, I'm
watching it. Ah, my son is asking for
stuff. Your son is giving you. It just
doesn't make any sense. How did you do
it? He says, "No, no, Pashoot. It's not
It's not that they trained. It's that
there's a difference. You told your son
that we all came from monkeys. Your son
believes you because you're his father.
Every son believes his father. So, your
son says that you know what, Aba, if
[music] we came from monkeys, that means
that you are closer to the monkey than I
am, which means that I'm more advanced
than you. Therefore, you should serve
me. We on the other hand believe in
Hashem. We believe in God. [music] We
believe that God created man. And then
man was the top creation. Mash made from
the hands of Hashem. And we've been
going down lower and [music] lower each
and every generation. Unfortunately,
nonetheless, each generation that's
passed us that's before us is closer to
the original. It's closer to Mosherenu.
It's closer to Araba. It's closer to
Kesh. It's closer to Mount Sai.
Therefore, it's greater [music] to my
son. He serves me because I'm closer.
I'm closer to the best. Your son thinks
you're closer to a monkey. So the reason
why we have a generation of people that
are dying to be monkeys, dying to be
monkey. Why? Because if tell somebody
that God exists, that means I have to
[music] listen to what he says. And if I
have to listen to what he says, then it
means I need to know what he says. And
if I need to know what he says, [music]
that means I have to spend time away
from the things that are my desires.
Away from baseball and football and and
all the different desires that people
have, which means it's obligating me.
It's obligating me to change. It's
obligating me to improve. It's
obligating me to be not a monkey. And
that's why people don't want to do it.
It has nothing to do with monkeys or
monkeys. All it has to do [music] is
with our yet our desires of how we don't
know how to control ourselves and how we
refuse to improve. But that's also why
the began with the word
the beginning the beginning of creation.
Hashem created the heaven and the earth.
Why does it say the beginning? The
Ramban says the beginning means with
wisdom. With wisdom. Beginning means
with wisdom. If you use a little wisdom,
you [music] understand that it's
impossible for us to come from monkey.
And the reason why is because simply
put, if there was just five steps
between the monkey and us, let's say
there was five steps from the monkey and
us, every single creation to be able to
mutate. That means it has to be
self-sufficient. That means it has to
have sustainability power. It has to
survive. Which means that at every given
time from point A to point [music] B, C,
D, and E, A and B, it exists at the same
time. For B to become C, A still has to
exist because it it's [music]
self-sustaining. It's fine. It's strong
enough. It can't just disappear cuz it
has to have enough time to mutate. Which
means argument sake that if the
five-step process [music] actually was
real, we'd still have all the steps at
the very least at least a few of the
middle. All we have today is the monkey
and the person that's trying to be a
monkey. Stop being like monkeys. Don't
stay a monkey. Elevate yourself to
become a righteous human being who
serves Hashem. That's our purpose in
this world.
