Torah = Life

I always say, before we learn, we have that two years no one is in a rush. No, I have But before But before we learn by us Hasidim when somebody comes, when when a Hasidim come you put out kibbutz. That's that's just what Yidden do. Another Yid comes, always. A Yid comes, you bring out kibbutz. That's always by the Yemenites. The Hasidim have it. It's It's It's really just an old Yiddishe custom. People would go to Baba Sali. The great tzaddik Baba Sali I have friends who went to him. When you came to to him, he served you a whole seudah himself. He was in his 90s. Who knows how old? Here was a tzaddik. He would serve you. A bachur would come to Baba Sali. You know that? He'd serve you. I have friends who went to him. He served you a whole seudah when you came. A youngster traveled out to see him. Multiple people told me this. And this is by Hasidim. Somebody comes, does like a kibbutz. You bring out a bowl of fruit, you know? Now, we don't have a fridge here. I have no fruit, no fridge. But the Hasidim of Chanan is a childhood friend of mine, one of my best friends growing up. We We We were good very close friends. Our sons are close friends. So, we owe you kibbutz fashion. Here, Dovid is back home. And we owe you kibbutz fashion. We should put out We should serve it. So, what we do We have We have two Russian yeshivas from the Chofetz Chaim yeshiva here. Yehuda's back home. So, our form of kibbutz is with the Veremes song. That's That's the kibbutz we give. We make shabbos with music. That's what we have. You don't need a fridge for to play music. So, let's Gabe, if he could If Yehuda, if he could do you this song, and then you'll do something for him. >> Same one more time? Yeah. Yeah. This is just two weeks old composed.

Let's first I want to I want to share something with the I want to cover the cover the whole I want to share something yesterday on the day that we come that comes to the bird to the Sinai Today the the second day of the day Hashem promises us the two of us and the college So I want to further I want to discuss things I heard here from the guys yesterday and one of my sons shared something with me I want to further discuss it. I'm contemplating something that I think has it has to be thought about all Yidden. Hashem tells us come to the midbar, come to our Sinai in the midbar and I want to hand us the Torah. Is a pillow. Watching any of our greats, I was to grow up in my father's house. He was a person his default setting was to learn. His whole life a person who in his sleep would talk shots with in his sleep give shoot a mammoth. I was with him at the end in the He was going for treatments and he fell asleep and he was talking and learning. The year next to me said isn't he sleeping? I just shrugged. I said yeah, [clears throat] that's what he does. What can I tell you? He he was out but he was talking tired. That's that's what he did. So he was somebody who learned tired was engaged in Hashem's Torah a tremendous avas Torah, you don't know Rambam backwards and forwards cleared the whole Rambam. He was steeped in Torah and yet he was so engaged in this world. Somebody was a good tennis player, enjoyed a nice piece of chicken, was engaged was engaged to the point that when my sure disengages from the world, Aaron and Miriam speak Russian on my sure to finish. What is this? Because all our men and our and our were very engaged. They had families, they engaged engaged in commerce and business. I may run to the on the store. He engaged in business. We're engaged in this world with a wife, with children, building homes, engaged in matter, engaged in the world. And it seems so strange. Hashem says here I want to give you the Torah class Israel, come to the desert. To the desert? Are those Tibetan monks? We have the we have the day you think that a life of service of Hashem has to be separate as to you have to push it go to the Himalayas. We know that's not what we see God we see from our our learning the Torah itself anybody reads the Torah the others were involved of course their thoughts were completely she Hashem the next of course is the basis for everything they did but yet they were engaged in this world. So I asked the question that it seems so strange that Hashem said come to the desert. I want to give you the Torah. It would appear in middle of the issue of where we live in and with people live hand us the Torah the Torah speaks to a life and to a person's life. My hi what is this that Hashem said come come to the desert. I want to hand you the Torah. That's the question I have. I don't want to like answer that this is it's it's not it's like the question it's the first thing that hits. Torah step one is where did he give it to us? We went to the midbar come to the desert come. And there I want to hand you the Torah. It would seem to be so strange place to hand us the Torah that speaks anybody reads the Torah read the whole about the read the laws of the Torah speak to us in day-to-day life in everyday life. So my hi that Hashem said come to the desert. I want to hand you the Torah. That's the question I asked this question we're allowed to contemplate and think and absorb allowed one this is a question. I don't I'm happy yesterday we ended. We ended with the question. I don't like and the answer is I want the friction. I want to live in the friction. I've said many times this year this would ask a kasha and every year he'd give a different carrots. It wasn't like a rabbinic trick. Questions are friction. They produce they produce thoughts and questions take us on a journey. Hashem the same creator of the answer creates the questions. The questions of our life bring us places. They bring places. They talk to us. They tell us. They speak to us. Questions are beautiful. Are powerful. Are overwhelming. But this when he would give different answers every year wasn't like saying he was like well last year my dress I said that so let me try on something new this year and then next year I can't say what I said last year that wouldn't be fresh. So that what was happening by this world. What was happening was he lived in a kasha and a kasha produces and one year when he lived in that kasha produced a certain carrots. Another year obviously the kasha still if the kasha if you have a kasha why is spelled the only have one carrots. It's not. You don't have another carrots a different year the kasha ended but when the kasha is troubling it produces things that we would give in the tire in the desert is very bizarre for anybody who lives to anybody. Now were there who were perished from the world that were an uncommon thing and not typical. They were holy. They were they were full of >> [laughter] >> engaged in this world. Even precious was a temporary thing. Another is called called a sinner. Even precious was only a to get the kasha. To engage in this world and it seems strange. Come I want to give you the tire come to the desert. So I want to share two guys the way I understand what two Bachmeier said and my son Yaco. >> [clears throat] >> I want to share the following thoughts. >> [snorts] >> I get very concerned, very deeply concerned that I'm not There's halacha not lamice, but I'm bringing something out. I'm going to explain it. When a yeshiva bachur is going through emotional things, it used to be like made fun of where the rebbe is stepping in. That's a professional. Don't step in. I'm the opposite way. I get upset that we send it to the professional and the rebbe doesn't handle it. So, oh, well, then go to therapy for that. I like therapy. Everybody should speak to therapists. Everybody We're all working on our emotions. Of course, we should work on our stuff. Obviously, every 8 billion people should It's It's the It's the It's the light of today. It's the possibility of today. What It's a very pnimius the gadar. It's a feeling dar. This p'sukim predicted this and s'varim speak about this mamesh. It's a generation that's feeling. It's what I look at my 11-year-old son. He tells me things. It's jaw-dropping. People are feeling. Things I ignored my whole life. My My rebbe, it's not what we did. People today are mamesh in a space of feeling and processing. It's nifla. And s'varim spoke with a tzaddik says that even though there's the yirei disadere, the lev is going to grow. What do you think of the next I'm sorry. It's just this is a middle. This is a middle. This is happening. This is only going to intensify. There's a There's a deep place of the lev. P'sukim predicted that a lev even is going to become a lev basar. P'sukim predicted this. Wait, real talk. You think it's bad like like Oh, like there's p'sukim that say I want to I want to Before you even say, I want to hear what Aviad Aviad said real talk. I only want real talk. I don't want I don't want to say something that's not real. So, let's let me what's I'm saying like you're saying like these plastics predict like all like the generation and all that like I'm saying well that doesn't Why is that necessarily such a like proof that that's what it is like I'm not saying a proof. It's very complicated. I'm not saying a proof, I'm saying what it looks like to me. Not a proof. I'm not I'm not I'm not like like I'm not forcing something. If somebody sees it different, I'm open. I'm literally open. I'm I'm learning a Sugya that I'm saying. I'm not like proving or saying it has to be this is what it looks like to me. It's one person's opinion. 100% it looks that way. It looks that's what it looks like to me. So, when when the Yeshiva says like go out, go to therapy, go there. I'll tell you what bothers me. I want to explain something. At a Shabbos table, it's a big thing to say Dvar Torah at a Shabbos table, right? So, you're in the middle of the meal. It's a mission and office that a table shouldn't be believed Dvar Torah that's poshit. Kol shaimin divrei Torah is al shulchan ayin. Is a is a shlecht zach. So, you say Dvar Torah. So, you know Aviad one day certainly certainly every Yiddishe family at the Shabbos table say Dvar Torah. I want to express how it felt at my father's Shabbos table. I do not want that in the middle of your seudah, okay? And Aviad says Dvar Torah. Now, I want you to say Dvar Torah, but I want you to hear this two this another another another example. Again, the Yeshiva was working for for two Yidden that weren't shomer Torah mitzvos. He was working for them. Okay. He was working in the in the summer. He took off a month and he was working for two Yidden that weren't necessarily shomer Torah mitzvos. So, one was one wasn't. But he was working for two Yidden. The Yidden said after day, "Okay." After a long business day the Yidden said, "Okay, we did our time. Khatsi Lakhem, now it's time to give to God. Let's learn something Jewish." My son was the guy working for them. He called me up like Bitzara. Called me up Bitzara. I want to tell you what he expressed, and I want to express this. The life of Torah is not like you have this busy life, and you try to squeeze in a little Torah. If we were given Torah in the Yeshivah, we we're in the middle of like this busy bustling whole life, and then the Torah comes down, it's like, "Fit this in." So, middle of your table, nope, nope. You're a Yid, fit in Torah, same way Torah. Uh-huh. That's not how I felt on any detail of my father's life. Every aspect is in that world of Torah. It directs, it guides, it instructs, it talks to every single detail of our life. When a bochur says, "Rebbi, I'm not really working on Torah now, I'm working on being healthy. I'm going to therapy." Healthy is not in the world of There is no b'chol ma'asecha dayu. HAFOKH BA'HAFOKH BA'DE KULBA, there's no such thing as an area that that's added to realm of Torah. It is ein davar acher zeh. The more I'm The guy is here opening him up to my insight, everything's in the Torah. Everything, everything, every insecurity, every every detail of what you're feeling is in the Torah, is part of Torah, is instructed by Torah, is relevant to a life of Torah. It's not like outsourced, it's not like, "Well, I have a life, okay, then let me see where Torah fits." The Torah is kein khayeinu, it instructs ev- That guy, my son, was so upset when he was working, I was thinking about Torah. He was being more honest, he was I don't know in his dealings with people. He's living Tyra. He's living. He's keeping. He's thinking. It's relevant to everything that Tyra instructs them. The energy is not okay. We worked all day. Now let me give something the learning Tyra is because because everything I'm doing is in of course the kids plugged into Tyra. And the other things he's doing and does. My father played ball. Wasn't like okay, forget Tyra. It was it was it was a Ben Tyra doing, engaging, behaving, everything. There's no there's no area that this falls out of the realm of Tyra. So what the guys were saying that perhaps and I it it resonates by me that Hashem brought us to the desert. Hashem said, "I'm not handing you something and you're going to fit. I'm going to give you this in the place of nothingness and from nothingness construct all. Construct your institutions. Construct your businesses. Plant your gardens. Do everything from this place of Tyra, through Tyra, with Tyra. If we were handed the Tyra and the issue of it's like the guy who stops of course you should say the very Tyra at your soda. It never felt like the very Tyra is like we have our that part of the whole everything. The soda Shabbos was keeping Allah was like it was relevant broaches. It was it was like and then of course you know it's everything. They were always like checking out Tyra and of course you should say the right but it doesn't feel like the rest of the soda. Okay. Quiet. We were living Tyra and that was he used to say the very Tyra of that and that. That's where we get everything we're doing. Why we having a soda? Cuz on Shabbos you need to soda. When does he eat the soda? How does he eat the soda? My father wasn't eating so much at the kidish. So you eat the soda with more gishmak. There's sodas. There's it's instructing. It's telling. It's talking it's saying it's guiding we live we're plugged into Tyra. It's not a disruption of the soda and then of course in a life that the Tyra's guiding everything is probably could I to look in there and at the soda like like see what's being said it's instructing how we doing things it's relevant and talking to our life. There's a line from the harsh that is very very powerful to me. The harsh saw a generation leave Tyra. He saw people quote and quote go off a dare. And and the harsh move was was shaken by it and he blamed us to learn the Tyra. He said that we took he said we took life out of Tyra and and the talmidim went and took Tyra out of life. Said it stopped connecting to all the things that to the harsh every area that wasn't an area not dictated by the Tyra. It's not like outsourced go to a therapist. Now it's true we all go to therapy if it's true of course we speak to somebody but that's not like an area outside of Yeshiva. I don't like when a guy is a good ball player when a guy is an artist it's relevant to the base match. It's not like a side stick. It's not a side stick up punk the guy is all like where are you Yeshiva? Then somebody's skills all the all the abilities of the harsh try this and was like was standing on the rooftop screaming this. All the talents are relevant to the base match. A guy is a guy is musical that this is space in the base that that's relevant to the Tyra life. That's involved that has to do with it's instructed by Tyra. The Tyra life every aspect of life connects to Tyra is governed there's nothing that doesn't belong. no, that's that's there's no there's no b'chochma secher da'as einu. It's building an entire life that comes from that comes from Hashem's Torah. That's instructed by God and his Torah. That's that's informed by Torah. That's that that and the Torah talks to that event, how it looks, what it is, what it how it It's just the life I want I want for us for all our families, your whole sukkahs it's it's not like the dry Torah was a breakage in the sukkah. The whole sukkah is a It's Shloime knows what I'm telling his father. My friend Rav Chanan said I'm not Is it a Torah dikayid? It's not like a break. He learns like he also It's not like Okay, I did I also learn put give some My son was so upset that these two the two people he was working they were good yidden, but they don't they didn't understand this. It's like they're going to learn was like okay, we did other things. We weren't busy with Torah. Now let's like give a little to God. That's What are you talking about? The whole work day is informed by Torah is is a living in but keep keep asking yourself, checking in, seeing how the Torah says for a person to work. What does it look like a person working? The Chofetz Chaim famously went to a yid in Radin who wasn't shomer Torah mitzvahs. The Chofetz Chaim spoke he was a pharmacist and he was giving out medicine all day. The Chofetz Chaim famously told this yid that we'll all line up to receive brachos, have intention. You're mom is helping people, have intention. Like be governed by Torah. Be in the realm of He doesn't know like no, that's I'm over there. It's not that way. It's not that way. I think the closer we connect to base medrash, this is like the sign of vibrant Jewish life. The base madrish and the activities have to be united. Yaakov Avinu, when he goes to Mitzrayim, he sends Yehuda. He sends Yehuda to set up the Yeshivah. And it says specifically to set up the base madrish. Now, it seems a funny activity for the melech. The melech governs the mundane activities. We have shvatim for the batay madrashas. Those shvatim would maybe be Yissachar. Maybe it'd be Shimon and Levi, Yoreh mishpatecha l'Yaakov. Zevulun perhaps supports. What's Yehuda's the malchus? Why is the melech setting up the Yeshivahs? We're successful as a people in as much as the Torah and the outside are well hand in hand, says Amon. The army and the base madrish has to be completely in sync. It's why it's so precious to me to try that we have to bring shalom in our people. Everybody has to respect the lochmay Torah who shouldn't be fighting. Avraham was punished garbed in the chalom. The people were not designed to fight. But the fighter and the lochmay Torah have to be connected. He sent Yehuda l'fanev. The Torah instructs and guides and speaks to every aspect, every detail of our life. There's no area that that's not in that realm. No, that's that's out. There's no such thing. Somebody's working on emotional stuff. That's the that's a topic of Yeshivah. That's a topic of The Torah talks. That's what I mean, not the outs. If you need a chacham, there's such a thing as a chacham gadol, but it's like it's mayinyan haYeshivah. It's may There's no There's no sugiyos that are not mayinyan the base madrish, that are added the reach of Torah, that added the reach of lochmay Torah, that that are not like Every sugiyah's relevant here. That's my That's what guys here were expressing and it's resonating a lot by me. That Hashem didn't hand us the Torah in the Yeshiva because then it would be could I fit Torah in this? We have a Sukkah, can I fit Torah? Okay, say it right. Torah is No, no. I mean, Hashem handed us in the Torah where it was devoid of anything. It was the desert, barren desert. Here he handed the Torah. And then what he's What Hashem is saying to us is constructed all, plant and build and make and create and everything through the Torah, everything governed by that Torah, everything governed by what you study and what you learn here. So, everything's constructed by the through the Torah. It's not fit into things, it comes from there and it's constructed. I think when somebody analyzes a Ben Torah Somebody is called a Ben Torah. That their entire the command should feels this way. You see this. That all the parts of their life like fit into coming are coming from Torah. The The behaviors >> [clears throat] >> Literally, the words of Ben Torah is such a cool expression, A Ben Torah means they were born from Torah. They're a product of Torah. Ben Torah, it's a cool expression. A son of Torah we call somebody. Ben Torah is Ben Torah. This person was produced by Torah. The Torah made them. The Torah is them. You throw by right side. So, that's that's what I wanted to express on this inyan that we got the Torah in the midbar but there I have sure. I shouldn't say midbar have sure. It's it's for sure we got the Torah in the midbar and for sure we have to be mispalleling, but the journey of thinking about this Possibly, but this is certainly possible. Efshar means possible. >> I'm saying we possibly got the Torah? No, for sure we got the Torah in the midbar. Maybe this is why. I can't say with certainly why. Maybe this is what Hashem was saying to us. That what you're going to build and create, it shouldn't be there ready and then stop tiring. It's built by wave tiring. What do you say? I want to tell you something else. I want to tell you something else also. I want to tell you something I'm I'm going to I first any type of perfection we're human. I'm talking about that this is the this is the iPhone. It did It does feel this way on Sadiq and tell me the that their life comes from Tyra and is rooted in Tyra and all that they do comes from studying Tyra understanding Hashem's want for us. So it does feel that way. I want to express something You have I want to say something that I said yesterday. Yeah. I want to say this. I want to say like this. >> [laughter] >> I want I want to say like this. That the ultimate the ultimate when somebody has a rabbi when somebody has a rabbi they asked me they asked me on a video to talk about Rabbi Sneaky. When somebody has a rabbi the deepest space of a rabbi the deepest space what hits is I'm interested I want his life. When I'm studying a subject separate from life the deepest space for a rabbi wow his life is the way he's a community member the way he's a husband and a father the way the way he it's it's I want his life. That's the deepest space of a rabbi. When somebody has a rabbi as they I told the guys the story we Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. His life like wow I like if if the guy doesn't like his rabbi's life it's not without learning math. Kiem Kayanu it's it's a picture of life. A guy in the Yeshiva's father is a baal teshuvah and his father went to public school. So his father asked again Yeshiva. Guys married with two kids version a beautiful person. The guy his father asked was I don't understand you. Said I hated school. He used the word I'm going to say he said suck it up deal with it. I deal with it. What do you say you're classy? He said I hated school and I got my degree. Mom hated school she got a degree. Zaid and Baba every what's what's what are you kvetch? Explain that I don't get you. I don't get you. You you seem you're classy. I don't get you. What's with you? So the kid said to his tatty he said tatty you went to PS whatever so it's difficult to the studies. Okay so deal with it and get your diploma. He said by me I'm going I'm studying Torah. My my conversation saying who I'm going to marry. It's saying how my house is going to look. It's it's speaking. You can't say just deal with it. It's my life. It's instruction it's instructing on every aspect of my life. You can't say okay we hate it. His father like heard it. His father then started looking for Yeshiva that he should maybe have a rebellion and he should have something that he shakes his head and he said I want this life. Wow this is the life I want. This is What if the guy didn't become about you? No no no no his father was about children but I'm just saying he was like What do you say Daniel? That's pretty fire. I think so. I think so. Of course. That's why we're both coming to Rabbi Silverman. Of course. Of course of course. That's the deepest space. That's deeper than words spoken. A guy sits there and he's like yeah. Shakes his head. I knew there was truth. I knew there was something to engage in. Thank you for being back home Yehuda. >> [applause] >> Could we come come come with the Torah with the Torah? >> Oh.
