All right, Sader. Okay, Mikita, last
time we spoke about
>> Yeah, I'm just worried about the size.
I'll see.
>> I'll try.
>> Do it a nice way. Yeah.
Last time we were speaking about the
idea of ganam and we mentioned that the
gof doesn't receive any pain because we
all know that it's in the it's in the
grave. So the raan speaks in length
about the place of the pain is only in
the nan the nephesh the place which is
spiritual. The place of spiritual we
mentioned the idea of the that's where
we ended off last time the is the image
of a person the reflection of a person
that he has up in shamim that he has up
in shamim. We all have a mirror image of
ourel. It's actually within our body and
it's upstairs. And the way we have a how
do you have an affiliation, a connection
between your body and your nama is with
this idea that's called the an image
which is an image. It's very similar
>> like a voodoo doll right like a voodoo
doll. If you hit the you get the person
very similar probably I wouldn't be
surprised it's connected. I wouldn't be
surprised he's saying a voodoo doll
should be the same idea. The best way to
explain it is similar to a neck. The
neck is what not what gives you life.
It's through your head that's connected
to your body that gives you a knife. But
I don't recommend being cut in the neck
because if you do, we all know it's all
over. Why? The neck is not the point of
sustenance. But it's the connector
between the head and the body. And only
through there are you able to to
survive. So the telm is the same type of
thing. Your whole ru the whole life that
you get into your body comes from the
nama from up above. And that comes only
through the telm. The telm is the
conductor. That's the word the conductor
that connects between the two. And we
mentioned this we find in many places I
mentioned that there's been reported he
brings reported stories of people right
before they were about to die that they
actually saw like a little image come
out of the person's body or sometimes
you see the person becomes flush. So you
say because he's sick I understand but
it could be that he loses his he loses
that aura. He loses that light that we
have and it leaves the body. There's
been stories that they said the family
was sitting out there and they saw that
Salm walking out the door and bye-bye
and they just disappeared and then soon
afterwards the person was the Salum is
the point that keeps the connection
between the naman like we mentioned in
hundreds of places the when we talk
about the spirits that walk around in
this world what are known as ghosts
these days but the what we call which
again I plan on speaking about in the
future that is has to do with this uh
with this okay we talked about the the
angels that the Ramban brings is in par
the angels is also comes from that or
raenesh when he came down to do kdesh he
came down with his etc etc all all of us
were in arsena that was with our telm
the telm of every single person was
imprinted from the time of marishan
inside of his body he was able to know
every single thing as the midra says and
that all comes from this telm and that
is what receives the pain in gum it's
not your physical body cuz it's down on
the ground and it's not your nama
because it's spiritual it's something in
the middle of this telm which has is
like quasi a little bit here and there
it's a little bit here and it's a little
bit there and that's why the sh writes
the raban writes in one place that
that's why this is considered much more
painful than an experience over here cuz
over here if you he says very similar to
a guy who works hard labor a guy who
works hard labor his skin is very
callous very thick gas right so he
doesn't get hurt so much when he gets
burnt or when he has to do things or
when you when you pound him right he
doesn't get so effective by because he
has a very skin rough type of skin rough
texture. He's made of a rough texture as
opposed to another person who's made
from a much more ad much more subtle and
much more ad
gentle refined yeah sensitive a
sensitive type of skin or sensitive type
of texture. So such a person will get
hurt much more easily when every time
right you always know your little girls
every little thing that you do you
barely touch them screaming and crying
you don't even know what happened right
because it comes from a certain type of
gentleness it comes from an alkite right
from a uh from
from a certain place of of that's that's
idea so he says also here when we are in
our physical bodies it hurts I don't
recommend hurting you it hurts but it's
still rough it's still you're dealing
with physicality when you're dealing
with a gentle
something very sensitive and a sh when
you're dealing with an effesh or the sal
that we were speaking about before which
is obviously much more much more so then
over there the pain is much more
excruciating it's much more excruciating
pain just like shalom person should ever
have it but an internal pain is much
more painful than an external pain when
a person feels pain from within it hurts
much more than when it's without person
feels it uh like unbelievable thing so
much never apply I remember one time I
got actually burnt I I actually got
burnt on the back of my leg and it
peeled. It was a second or even third
degree burn. It was very serious burn
back of my leg from a from an urn that
spilled in a breit and I was standing in
the wrong place the time but I strained
my only got to the bottom of my leg. It
could have been much worse. But I got
there and burned through my skin. So
when they were putting the cream on
never felt pain like that in my life. I
know I can say from the day I'm born
until now I've never felt pain like that
in my life. It's a it's a pain that's so
excruciating because it's internal. It's
so sensitive. It's a place that's
sensitive. I remember I had to like
whatever that's it that it was very not
easy. Okay, but that's where it comes
from. So when that happens, at least be
thinking, wow, geanum it's not pretty,
right? When that happens, you can start
thinking, wow, gem must be a little bit
worse than this one. Okay, so that's
this idea that we were speaking about
here. So from here, we're moving on to
the next stage where we will start
getting a little bit descriptive of what
the of is, what's behind gamm. But we
will start with the din that a person
passes. In other words, let's just say
in a kiter in a short term here, what
happens? The Arizel brings four types of
people that what happens to them. Okay,
there really are five, but he seems to
skip out the fifth. The fifth if I start
from the from the fifth would be a
person who
that's stay forever that they never are
able to go up to those are very bad. The
reason doesn't bring it and my guess the
reason why he doesn't bring it is cuz
the kabal if you look in the leash and
other farm they seem to say that even a
person who's all these types of things
he still seems to eventually eventually
eventually get some type of he seems to
get something according to of course the
says
everybody is that's what everybody knows
with the exception of anor people who
don't believe in the someone who doesn't
believe 13 principles of faith someone
who's a heretic someone who denies the
rabbis kazal he's not going anywhere
he's just suffering forever okay that's
what we spoke about earlier okay that's
how we understand alip so the result
doesn't bring that fifth category what
are the four categories he brings so I'm
I'm saying with the exception of fifth
category of someone who is forever the
the fourth the one category he brings is
a gamur a person who's a super tadik now
this is a very exceptional type of sadic
he doesn't even go into ganam he just
skips it all and goes straight into
ganed there weren't So many people that
were zed to reach such a da even the
biggest seem to do this you know I'm not
going to tell you who and exactly which
but raenu you know what I'm saying big
names that that were able to do such a
thing so let's move on to the next da
and his second da that he talks about is
someone who had sadikim very big sadikim
that they go to gehennam they go to
gehanam but even though they go in they
stop the fires for them they don't
actually get burnt even the gumar brings
I I'll speak about it later but the
garra even brings in if I'm not
mistaken.
Um he it brings about the fact that they
can go in but
that's what it says. They talk about
there used to be some type of fireproof
texture that you get from a certain
salamander thing. You're allowed to put
it on and you don't get burned by fire.
That's the talks about person can be
protected by fire if he puts on this
salamander on top of himself and he
comes from a certain type of fish that's
able to protect it. Yes, I don't know
which fish it is. I don't know if we do
have you can look it up in one of these
books but
>> like a fireman suit
>> salamander I don't know if it's
salamander fish that we know suit
>> like a fireman suit it's the same works
the same way right some creature that
comes after
right it's amphibian but I don't think
we have it right we don't have the thing
right we have a salamander but not that
I don't think it's the same salamander
no it's not the same salamander the I'm
just saying the word of the gar calls it
salamander so I don't know exactly what
it is anyways these are the people that
go through but they don't uh they don't
actually physically get uh affected. He
brings it in in
which I'm going to quote later. He says
that there are though everyone
eventually goes to gam just some people
don't get kesh I remember people telling
me I was I remember when I was younger
they said the bach the bach was one of
the pirish on the tour you know the bach
on the gar you know Adam from the 1500s
he was the father-in-law of the taz so
someone one time said that the bach they
know he went through ganam but they
stopped all the fires of gem and he went
straight to ganed after that or
something like that so I said wow you
know I was younger also I said oh I was
going to tell someone else the guy said
no
You shouldn't say that about
this guy didn't know anything because
that's everyone goes there. If you're
then everyone goes there and it's
we should get such a that they should
turn the fires off but everyone somehow
goes through Gam with the fires off. You
know what I'm saying? It's not
>> going avoiding it going there as they're
going with it cuz there is some type of
purification process that needs to be
done. I don't know if it hurts.
Apparently it it's some type of pain but
it's a very minimal pain. Let's say the
extent I don't know I'll tell you it's
when it's over. Okay. Just keep in touch
[laughter]
for the most
>> for the most part.
>> Even the patriarchs
>> the patriarchs. No, I'm sure the
patriarchs they were they were the first
category. They were the ones that went
straight to that have to be very big to
have that level. Third category of a
person which simply speaking is most of
us are what we call bayon we're middle
class people that was always a bayon
growing up you know be students bayon
right b for be and they're bon students
that's what it is and he basically these
are the guys who somehow go to ganam
they need to have go to ganam they go
through the purgatory process and then
eventually you get a nice big fat chunky
gun okay but again the bigger you're
going to get there, the more you're
going to be taken to task in gam. That's
the truth. The more it's going to be,
but it's going to be worth it. That's
the bring that they say it's worth it
for the amount of gan you're going to
get for the amount of that you're going
to you're going to have to go through.
But it's the cleansing process, right?
This is the cleansing process as opposed
to you remember what I spoke about two
weeks ago about there's a cleansing
process which is relevant more for usem
and there is the process a person who
doesn't get cleansed. It's just
it's just in order to give him pain and
he continues getting tortured because he
doesn't deserve to be purified. The last
category which he brings and this is
what I want to speak a little bit longer
is someone who has to stop hopefully
none of us but especially people come to
the sh I'm sure you're going to be okay
it's a special you get that he says that
stop in before they go to ganam you have
to be we said you have to be you have to
have merits you have to have merits to
go to ganam to go to uh to go to
purgatory how do you get there some
people have to stop beforehand in one of
two places Okay, one we'll speak about
today and another one we'll speak about
in a little while cuz it's a longer
story. One way is gilgulim. A person has
a certain gilgul. He comes back to the
world as a gilgul coming back down. That
could be one of two ways. Or you possess
someone else's body which we all know.
You go into another in Shabbat. He
becomes a gilgul. He goes reincarnation
as it's called in English. He goes into
someone else's body and that's how you
finish your final tikun. I'll tell you a
story in a minute soon about something
like that. That's first of all. Well,
the second way which is and like I said
that's already a little bit longer cuz
Gilim is all you know they take a few
sharim so it's not for now but the
second way to do it is a person is goes
to what is known as kafela kafella which
is a little bit known as a slingshot a
slingshot is kafella he goes around and
around now literally speaking kafela is
referring to a person getting flung from
one end of the world to the other okay
he goes one back to the other which
obviously sounds a little bit
unusual and I'm going to explain to you
what it means right now. But that's the
idea of cafela meaning kafala comes
before gean not not like people know
comes before for someone who has a
bigger rush meaning he wasn't yet to get
to ganam okay so as we mentioned there's
a few cleansing processes which occurs
there's what we call which we spoke
about the pounding in the grave and then
some people hopefully
we should not get such a thing as
kafella which is also as I'll read now
not such a pleasant experience and as
the going right is even worse than
ganum. Okay. And then eventually because
he gets cleansed by the kafakella
process if he was holding on such a
level if he wasn't a Russia gamur. So
then he gets to go maztov to geanum.
Okay. Then he gets gets the into ganum
and then of course we know he gets to
the highest levels of gan which is in a
of course separate. Okay that's
basically um what he writes. Now, as I
told you, the understanding from what
I've seen from most people is that
hopefully we're like Bayon. We shouldn't
get g. But I have to point out the
pelleoets was a tough he was a tough guy
for anybody who knows he's also the
author of the muser if you wanted to
know that was a safer that we keep
quoting that nobody likes. Okay. But
basically he writes over there this when
he speaks about this level of the
he says he says
we so then he writes uh under the
heading of
he says
from who's who's the one who's able to
be cleansed enough to go straight to
that's what he says who's the who's the
one who can say I'm clean enough to go
straight to the end and without getting
any interruption in the middle which
isn't such an enjoyable statement to say
but that's what he says basically and
that's what they say when say
oh so the question is what happens to
the statement we all know is we all know
that there's idea for 12 months that
he's in ganam he's there for 12 months
so the answer is 12 months when you
start the ticker right when you start
the clock right when you when the person
goes in geham so then he's there for 12
months but until then you have all the
preparation ations, right? Like you only
start the book once you pass the
hugdama, the introduction and the
preface and the you know the second
introduction and all that. That's what's
happening with kafel. It's a little bit
just to get into and then you actually
start the um the thing the mishim brings
about understanding. He says just like a
doctor when he cleanses a wound. He says
a doctor when he cleanses a wound, he
first has to take out all the pus, cut
off all the dry skin or all the live
skin in the beginning before he can
actually start treating the wound,
right? So he says cafela is kind of like
that. It's cutting off all the dry skin,
cutting off the live skin or whatever
and take pulling out the pus and then he
could start patching it up and putting
on the cream in order to do that. That's
when ganam kicks in. So then ganam can
go ahead and start putting on the cream.
But you got to get rid of all the extra
bad stuff that you might have. So here
we have the gun in
says like this.
It says in the that a person is in an
arrow an arrow
like a bird that runs to the so what
does that mean? He says what does it
mean? So says the writes in a few places
in by the way this is referring what is
referring to
he goes from place to place
he's running and goes from one end of
the end to one end to one end of the
world to one end of the world when you
look in the things it looks there's a
way they say there's one it sounds like
you ever see I'm going to use an
American m you ever you ever In in
baseball, there is idea when you throw a
ball to one guy into another and then
there's someone in the middle trying to
it's called a pickhole. He's trying to
get out cuz one person's going over
there, one person. You does anyone know
what I'm talking about here? I'm the
wrong audience here. [laughter]
You're trying.
They're throwing They're throwing the
ball to each other to try to tag the guy
in the middle. So, it sounds very much
>> hits the ball.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Also, he hits you. I
understand. Anyways,
>> so basic so basically that's when you
read it inside it a little bit sounds
like that's kafake. You go from one end
over here and then comes back again
comes and he runs over there and he runs
right back here. That's what it sounds
like. He's always trying to if you see
if you see Allah it doesn't sound much
better. Okay. But uh it's very like he's
while he's over here and he's over here.
I'm going to describe to you what it
means in a minute. But that's I just
want to describe to you the words here
that it says
he gets [clears throat] thrown from one
end of the world to the other. two and
it says
and what does he say? Now the is
referred to as the depths. Okay, we in
modern Hebrew would just turn into the
garbage. Okay, but it's not rubbish.
It's not really exactly that. It means
means into the in the pit in the pit,
right? In the pit of something. So here
he says
don't think he says when say don't think
that ganim will be a place to run away
he says what does that mean is not a
place to run away place you want to run
away from sounds like you're running to
ganim so he says because in the
beginning a person gets aim
gets very very heavy which are extremely
painful and he's in kafella he says and
then while he's in cafella and he's
stuck he sees sees gem on the side. He
sees, "Oh, here's Gdam." And he tries to
run for it. He tries to go and tries to
make it into Gdam someplace safe in
order to get out of this mess. He
prefers going to Gdam because that's
just just to show that's what he says.
The person runs away to gam because he
says that is much better even though
it's not good as we'll see later. It's
not exactly enjoyable place to be, but
it's much better than Kafka. Kafka is
much more of a painful experience. He
says
and he says that's what it means
just like a a um a a bird runs into a
little crevice in order to run away from
you know he's being chased by the eagle.
He's being chased by the eagle and he
runs into some little crevice in the
wall to try to get away from it. So too
we're going to be trying to do the same.
We're going to try to get into the in
order to to um to try to get away from
it. Okay, just as an explanation to show
how uh how serious this actually could
be. Okay, so therefore um that's uh
that's this about about what it is.
Okay, about
I want to describe what this means from
going. Yeah.
>> Is this
experience?
>> It's a good question. If it was the same
thing, I would guess that's what it
sounds like. I'm not going to sign on
that. That's the truth. Okay. But that's
uh I just want to bring out this goin.
Now the zor and the shunim right like
this.
Um
oh so what happens and they continue
they leave off from where the go the go
says that they try to run into geanum.
So what happens? How does he get out? So
what happens? So this is what's brought
down in the zor I mean the the go was
coming based on the zor. Yeaham
when they see ganim and they run to
ganim to try to get out of it.
Immediately all the rashim who are
inside ganam shove him back out. They
say, "Hey man, there's no room for you
in here. Get out." They don't want him
in there. They actually push him out.
You're not to be in. You weren't to be
able to get into. And then it says three
come very big scary or big. It says and
then they come and say all is and they
start hitting him and they say you
weren't still to come into and they give
him many types of and then they throw
him back into until he finished
cleansing himself. So ku that this
process continues he treats and get in
until he gets cleansed enough until he
can actually to do it according to the
amount of that he did it's
the only place is mentioned in in in the
Torah in it brings the
written by when she was speaking to
there's a certain through the
you prefer you're saying because at
least there's
a certain amount of the serum when a
person goes to again it's a different
type of cleansing than gam because gam
is an internal type of finishing off the
product to make it like the like the
wound but this is more you had other
parts that were problematic that you
have to suffer for in order to get it
>> just a punishment or is it some kind
>> it's a punishment which helps you move
advance though it does help you advance
not for everyone let me explain to you
when we talk about it's not stop flying
around the universe okay every
everything we speak here obviously you
should know it's not like I'm hopefully
going to get animal. So I want to
describe it a little bit also when we
talk about the that's what I meant
sounds bad right what I meant to say is
when we describe kafel is like this the
idea is that a person and this is how
the miko writes in page 296 if you want
to look it up he has about five six
pages there on kaflla
and he says the idea is that a person
was so bound to his tot to his nature to
his body that he's running to get more
of it and he's trying to get more of it
and he gets there and you're so excited
to almost be there and he comes right
back again and springs you back. Kilo,
what's the most painful experience? Like
recently someone was just telling me
they were planning a trip. He told me
already from 2 months ago they were
planning a trip. They were planning on
going. They're planning going somewhere.
And then I said, "Oh, you're going this
week." He said, "No, my wife's not
feeling well. He's not able to go or
something like that. He wasn't able to
go on this." And I said I was so about
it. He was so upset about it. I was
like, you know, I was but he he was so
much more upset about it only because I
wasn't upset about it, but he was upset
about it. Why he was upset about it?
Because he was you had the and you
didn't get it. The anticipation is
extremely painful experience if you
don't get it. And especially when you're
this close and you just miss it. That's
exactly what kafaka is. It's like you're
almost almost getting those that that
goof the tas that you wanted you wanted
to do and you wanted to do it and you
come back and you come back and you end
up losing it. That's the experience.
That's what it means that you get thrown
back and forth. Thrown back and forth.
It's like whatever bodily functions you
had the whole times with his certain
tavat whatever your problems were that
you deserve to get it. You get it's it's
it's advanced a 100 million times and
the person really wants to want and he
never gets it and he never gets it. He
keeps thinking he's going to get it and
he doesn't end up getting it. And that's
that's how he describes it. He says
>> even if someone just chuva he's going to
go through propaganda again.
>> Okay. If a person did proper chuva, so
then it will work depending on what he
did chuva on and if he did it for
depending on the things. Now chuva works
there's four different levels. Chuva can
work for assays but not for says
but if you didn't have some things
require
so he has other things but again what
deserves exactly
that no one really speaks about. Okay.
But it's some things that you did that
you didn't wasn't enough apparently that
required more than that. Yeah.
>> This is the misa that's here. Is it
>> with the misa meaning
>> or with the mis
>> Yeah. Even if it is even the misapper
sometimes you still need more. It's not
enough. Someone who didn't believe in
the mis being or something. That's what
I'm saying. I I except for that pelle
was the exception. I think hopefully I
you know I don't stamp on anything.
Don't don't hold me on anything because
you get upset and realize I was wrong.
I'm going to take me and take him with
you. Right. But uh the mash is that
hopefully if a person's a m and he tries
his best and he's really doing his best
and he tried to shoot as best as he can
and he does ch as best he can hopefully
he'll skip the stage. I hope so. Okay.
>> Well, I thought some of the action pains
you get here is a cleansing process.
>> That's also cleansing and and it's a
very good cleansing cuz it's better to
get the pain here than there because
it's much more easier. It's much easier.
You understand? So, whatever you pay
here, you should realize you're paying
for it triple. Okay? You're getting a
lot more out of it. You should realize
what it is.
>> Maybe because it's easier here because
we've got our external girth protecting.
>> That's right. Exactly.
>> Pain therefore it's not as effective.
>> It doesn't hurt you as much. Maybe
you're not getting as much kapor.
>> No. So I'm saying that's the there's
that. You're right. It's earning less
and definitely earning less. But it's a
special what do we say? We say alloy.
What's a tad for alloy? Because he
receives in this world most of his in
order that he gets it upstairs. He gets
a discount as opposed to rush is the
other way around. So what's the
difference? Either way, you're getting
the pain. No, because it's a it's a
you're getting a you're getting a big
discount by receiving the pain here.
That's what it is. Okay. That's that's
he says you the person this whole time
is doing this and coming back and he's
just trying to get out of it. He says
he's like in a he's like in a jail cell
and he's not able to get out of it and
he's just trying to run here and run
here and he's not able to do it and
that's where the pain is and he can
never get. He just keeps trying again
and keeps trying again. He wants to get
out of this train. It's like a person
who's addicted, right? It's a it's a
muscle almost. I don't think of it as an
initial, but it's a muscle. Like a
person who's addicted. He I would love
to stop. I can't handle this anymore. A
person can't stop pushing buttons. Can
that cigarette is his whip, right? It
hits him on the back. Get it again. No,
I'm killing myself. The guy has lung
cancer. He's going to die. Said, "No, it
doesn't help because it's still that's
what he said. That's that's the
description." Then they said,
"How I've been doing it. I've been able
to get out of it. I'm not able to get
out of And some people get it forever.
And some people are are this. And you
should know that the go writes in as he
get it to his to his he says who gets
kafella. And this is the scariest thing.
He says all the and the stupidity they
speak
words of the
in the letter. In the letter everybody
knows he g and he still says for every
bad thing you said for every negative
thing for all the extra words just to
call the words because the hele is the
it's the place of connection between the
higher and the level so that's why it
deserves to get he says very scary thing
well this I'll give you a story you want
to say something
okay so basically I'll tell you one
quick story that's brought in the
ishud
okay who's ner
died uh 60 70 years ago. Not long ago,
middle 50s. It wasn't uh not not such a
long time ago. But the book is wild.
Nothing less to say than that. Just
talks talks to all these and all these
tikun etc. It's incredible things that
he does there. So let me tell you one
quick story which is relevant for us
over here. He brings a miser with a
person named Natani.
You know what Natanasti is? You know
that is Natani,
right? Oh, very good.
He wrote a book a cafer called.
Now the truth is we have the safer. It's
still around. Now until this
came out it was a book that was learned.
People learn it.
The he kind of slammed the book into
pieces. But I'll tell you what happened.
He said he he was learning. He says he
himself was then it has a lot of muser
in there and all these types of ideas.
Okay. And says to learn it,
>> not to learn it. Oh, really? So, it was
before. I thought he was the one who put
it. Okay. He says because of Yeah. Oh,
okay. So, it was already from before.
>> There's that. He was really will the one
who wrote that statement, but he made it
clear he was the one.
>> Uh, no. I knew there was I just thought
the he caused it. So, you're saying I
mean it was the same time as Ben, you
know, but
>> I'm it could be he said after this this
because this was with Benish also. So, I
don't know.
Um he wrote a book it's called was
written about 300 years ago. It has a
lot of muskaf. It's a very nice book. A
lot of Torah. Okay. Personally I never
read it because I know it's all I'm not
touching the book. I have plenty of
other things to read that I didn't
bother. So he says over there fata was
reading it as is you know what do you
read to your kids when you go to sleep?
You read right Goldilocks and three
bears. What are you guys reading? Right.
So he was reading kamim to his kids.
That's what he was reading. Those were
the days, you know, everyone's reading
this garbage and he's he's reading this.
He was reading and he said while, you
know, he's lying down in bed reading it
to his kids and this and that he was
reading it to his kids, he fell asleep.
He dozed off. Now that he dozed off, he
started dreaming and guess who came to
him in the dream? Natanasti, the author
of the book himself came to himself.
>> No, I'll tell you the story in a second.
He didn't know that yet. He didn't know
that yet. He dozed off and Natanast came
to him. You should try. You'll see Dr.
Sis will come to you in your dreams,
right?
>> [laughter]
>> It works. Read it and don't come to your
dreams. Right? So anyways, he was there
and then as he says, "Oh, I see you're
reading my safer. I appreciate it. It's
a great safer." No. And then he said,
"If you do one thing, then I will let
you read the whole entire the whole
entire book will be in your head. A
one-way ticket. Boom. You'll know the
whole entire safer bal by heart. If if
you just have to do one thing, what
>> by heart?" He said, "I'm going to give
I'm giving you a special gura." So he
told him, "What do I have to do?" So he
said, "I'll be honest with you. I have
to tell you." And this is where he comes
in. He says, "I'm from aim. I'm one of
the
Okay, I come from the You know, you
heard of him? He was a Messiah that was
a faker." Um, and he he caused a lot a
lot of havoc to the Jews because a lot
of people followed him and a lot of
people went off the Derek. He went in
the wrong direction because of him. He
pretended he was Mashia and he himself
became a Muslim in the end. You know the
story. You know more of the story,
right?
>> Right. So he's known he's known there's
a whole book if you want to see in
English called the impostor that goes
through his whole life and his whole
life story. It's called the impostor.
Someone told me he read his excellent
book. It's a very good book. Anyways, so
he caused a lot of problems because
after him that's that's when they
started asking learning kabala because
he knew he knew fantastic kabala and he
was able to do tricks with his kabal. He
was able to do things and people
followed him and went after him because
of him. That's why you know the
had a lot of problems because of that
and so there was a lot of just because
of the anyway so he says that was a tal
of until the day until the death he was
he was he was behind him the whole time
and he said I was always worried
that and I wanted to give over the
hashkaf of I wanted to give over his his
uh his ideas but he said if I write a
book about him everyone's going to take
the book and throw in the fire right no
one's going to listen to it so I had an
idea good idea and I think people
nowadays do it also. I'll write a lot of
musk nice things. I'll bring in a lot of
I'll show people that I'm a whopping
I'll show people that I know what I'm
talking about not
right I'm not a joker and then through
that I'm going to bring I'll mix inside
of it I'll mix inside of it all the
I'll get everybody to go on the derek
not a good guy Russia pretty bad guy huh
some people do this with the internet
these days they throw in a lot of marmic
a lot of sources because they get it off
the internet or whatever and this and
then they sound like they know what
they're talking about but they're really
Dota brains Right. Unfortunately,
>> every shak has to have a little read you
by the moragling by the by the by the
spies also. They had to put a little bit
of truth in the beginning to make. Okay.
Anyway, so that's that's what he said.
So he says, "If you go and you do and
express my book and and go with this,
I'll I'll help you. You'll know the
whole entire book." Oh. And then he woke
up and then feta woke up.
>> A nightmare. It's pretty bad. Then he
realized what what's the power of this
book. And then he said he went to sleep
again after a few weeks or whatever
after a little while. And when he was in
his dream, what happened? He saw a crow.
Yeah. He saw a crow flying. He saw a
crow flying and coming right and
charging towards him and charging
towards him. Coming like this. And he
boom went into his jacket. Hiding in his
jacket. That sounds scary, right? a crow
came and he sees three farmers coming
and trying to hack and to get the crow
and trying to trying to kill the crow
and then he realized who it was. He
realized this is a gilgul of Natani
who's going through and this is part of
his gilgulim that he's going through. So
before he was saying that he was within
Kafka and he's within Gulim he's going
back and forth he was having a whole
party over there and he was going
through this permanent pain like you are
permanent if by him it was permanent he
had no way of getting out of this he was
flying back and forth and they were
chasing after him so he said and this is
what's funny about the book a few places
he does this even did himself he did he
said he he begged him not said please
can you help me get out of this place I
can't I'm being chased and this I can't
he's going crazy I can't have him so he
told
that I'll do the for you and he writes
all the tikun that he did and he went
around seven times and he has a whole
path
did all started doing all the
see in order that he should be to go to
gan not
if he goes to ganim then he has a you
know a ticket to be able to get there
and he pushed and it wasn't easy and he
did it and he raised if anybody needs if
this happens to you I have the pages if
you want to have a list you can do the
tikunim and he gleim flying around your
house it happens no haunted houses there
somewhere you know the If you say these
things, it's everything. It was
unbelievable. He goes through all the
different things that he said. And as he
brings in the story, he went to the said
get out of here.
He said, "No, he's on his forehead. It
said he was he was fixed because of
him." And he was able to go he was able
to go in. Was sent to that. They shook
his finger and they weren't happy. He
did. He said, "I made Allah." He says in
the book, I'm testify on myself that
that whole year I had the worst year of
my life. I lost all my money. I had
tremendous. He didn't say all the I had
a lot of physical and monetary because
apparently it wasn't so befitting what
he did. So he took the isuram on in his
plate. He said I did it and I did to do
it but uh he did it to save the world.
As they say some people give duck and
some people do these things. You know it
seems to be that's what it is. But at
least you see at least this idea that
kafakala is a very powerful thing. It's
worse than Gam, but it's also aoot to be
able to go to Gam. Okay, these are the
four levels. This was I told you Gilgim
Kafel and this and I do want to speak
about Gam if you don't mind cuz I told
you I have two weeks. Do you mind if I
go over time a little bit if we go like
10 minutes? Yeah, you can leave in the
middle if you want. I just
>> Huh?
>> Was he what?
>> Corrupted also.
>> Who?
>> He was corrupted. Yeah, he went to the
death.
>> He was trying to get people to be
he was correct. He was def he he felt he
was correct but I don't know I the only
one thing I don't figure out is when he
went off to Derek I don't know why
everybody kept following him there seems
to be still a reason why people were so
he knew that he still went off and he
was a Muslim and they say that Taz went
to visit him the Taz went to visit him
and he said when he went to talk to him
there's hundreds of stories about so
much time he saw that he closed a book
with his foot or something like that he
said I know that he's like a like they
saw he was you know what I mean but he
was very strong that was the problem.
So, so what does cliff that
>> that he's able to do against
>> they was able to even come in a dream
how do they
>> to be able to come it happens to be on
the contrary you should know the lower
are able to come down the ones who are
flying around in this world you're able
to speak to them theim are the lower
ones the people are high you can't talk
to you can't anyway but
you know those things you can't it was a
one time thing was able to speak to
because it was within the one year or
whatever so he's still able to do that
but the sadiki are impossible to be able
to do that. But for him to be able to
come in because he's on a lower level
and he was begging for some uh some for
him to help able to actually
>> Yeah. to be able to to do that.
Apparently, Hashem gave him the
opportunity to to come down.
>> What place was he in that he was able to
still attempt to lead someone else a
straight
>> to lead someone else astray? Oh, that's
what you mean.
>> He's now in his fixing up process,
>> right? No, but that's what I told you.
You two shum ago I mentioned that even
when they're upstairs they're still were
they still tell people not to the gar
says that uncle came to tus and he came
to bum rash and he came to and they all
said knock off the Jews get rid of them
get rid of them if you want to be
something good get rid of they don't
change their status just like in the
kafaka I said kafel they still have
their t they still want they still want
and he doesn't get it that's why it's so
painful for those people it's not a
changing process for people are proper
it's not a it's not a fixing process
It's a punishment.
>> It's a punishing process. Yeah. A
certain type of vengeful type of
punishment. You understand? For someone
like us.
Yeah. Even if we go through it, but it's
more of a cleansing process and you
start becoming clearer and clear and
clear until you're able to get through.
You understand? You just have to know
there's a big difference.
>> How does it work with
>> Yeah. So, it's two different things. Or
it's gil or it's kafella. Sometimes it's
both. Sometimes I don't know if he has a
choice, but Gilgum is a whole separate
story and it's going to take more than
one cheer. So, I'm not going to speak
about now. Okay. Some people go in
kagulum instead of cafella in instead
and just be taken that way. Okay. So
let's move on. I'll go till a quarter
tube is okay.
>> When what?
>> It's not good. It's a painful. Yeah.
It's not good. It's not good. It's a
very not they usually prefer not to.
Sometimes they prefer gham to go to yoga
with them.
>> Okay. Well, we had to because we had to
finish the Yeah. had to finish the
process. Sometimes there's a little bit
more and through the G and then we can
finish it off instead. You know what I'm
saying? Depends.
>> That's what happened. Yeah, I mentioned
the story last week. There's a story.
The person remember that he only had one
thing wrong. He had a choice or to come
back or to go through three days of
gham.
>> So he said, "I'm afraid to come back cuz
maybe I'll mess up again." He said, "So
stay." But then he so it was too hard to
hard the three days of gam was too hard
for him. So he said go. Okay. Now let's
just uh progress here a little bit. Let
me just say a couple important points
about Gam. I really wanted to be Magdar
Ganam at least before we take a break
for a little bit. There's seven names
that are given to uh Ganam. Okay. Seven
names that are given to it. It's known
as
these are all depth and the depth. It's
all the words of they're all negative
words. All things that have to do with
negativity meaning a lack of something
to the place of death underneath ground
and as we'll see later it's going to
sound surprising to you and I can't do
it in this year because I'm going to
show you a lot of proofs to this the
Ramban speaks it out it seems to be it's
somewhere underneath the ground here
okay it's somewhere in this world it's a
very heated place and I have I'm not
saying theories in this it just comes
out the way as we all know we've
discovered that the core of the of the
world is extremely like a bolden lava
and it works beautiful with this whole
thing. I'm just saying it works out
well. Okay. Now, I'm not saying there
are people swimming around in the lava
there and that's organ cuz you're not
going to see anything there. I realize
that. I'm not So, you'll I'll explain to
you separately. Okay.
>> But you should they could send a camera,
right? No, they can't. It'll melt. They
can't send anything down there. Okay,
fine. But, uh No, I mean they can they
but uh but I will describe to you what
it is. It is some type of physical heat
which is downstairs which causes heat
and that's what the Ramban brings araya
from the to various springs the springs
we have in many the hot springs in a
number of places in the world and the
garra says in one place again I want to
I want to do this separate I didn't even
mean to speak about it in one place that
the garra says in Shabbat that that is
from the of
they ask if it's from the sun or it's
from is it told or told the Does it come
from real fire which is user to cook on
that or does it come from which is a not
it's a solar solar type of heat. Okay.
It's what it is but he said
so we see this has some realism into the
real world into the physical world. It's
a spiritual world saying it's physical
but it plays a part in the physical
world which I believe will explain but
that's not our issue today. Okay. I just
wanted to say these are the seven names.
That's what it's brought down. Raan
brings two other names which you might
be more familiar with which is
interestingly not brought there and
it's the place of death. He brings
another place called Ara. Now Arca is
known for land. Why is he bring it's an
eighth name. Why it's the eighth name.
What's the difference between the
seventh name and eth name? The eighth
name is Arca's er because that's a place
where you stay and you never come back.
If you get to this eighth level then
he's forever gone. There's seven levels
in gem. Seven med there are seven it's a
very famous it's a mum most of what
we're speaking about is in ganum if you
want to look when you finish I'll show
you ganum is okay not that I finish but
it's okay right you have the seven
levels and then you have and then you
have this place called ara which is
place you don't go up meaning if you're
in the seven levels then you have
opportunity to come back up every level
is more painful than the level above it
first the highest is better then worse
worse worse worse worse worse. Okay,
that's how that's how it goes according
to each uh each each level. Okay. Now I
want to explain where this name two
names is brought. It name is tip place
of puy where the mafu they convince you
to do things which we can understand why
but and the second name that is brought
is gan which we know how does everybody
refer to ghan they call it gueum. Okay
now I want to tell you the words of the
we go back to rauday again. Okay raudaya
he speaks about and this word that I'm
saying he says is a mistake. It's not
the way you pronounce it. How do you
pronounce it? So he says like this first
of all he says the word is called
and he says because even it's a
convincing place even for a king and
over here he says what I said before
melik is and even go down there only the
ish is not the thing that I mentioned to
you before okay even anybody can go he
says where does his name come from and
why is it called so the word is
mentioned in many places in no it's
mentioned in
three or four places it's mentioned
mention a lot of times the word go
sometimes is two words sometimes is one
and he says like this during the time of
mane he tells us a cute story during the
time of man
we know that man he was eventually but
he was a king for a long time 55 years
and for most of those years for a lot of
those years he was rasha bad guy okay
and there was a person who had a very
large large courtyard a super large
courtyard very wealthy person who had a
very large courtyard in I'll tell you
the truth I was in if you ever go to the
if you go you have to take a guided tour
in the Davidid in David over there which
is that's proper Davidid is hard is not
you know that's all these are all nice
places around the area real is Davidid
where unfortunately all our cousins are
living and not us okay there's one or
two guys that like to live there and
they're they're bound with the
bodyguards and this and barbed wire
fence And that's how they live. But I
don't know how they buy milk, but say
what?
>> S.
That's the name. What? Yeah, there's two
or three people that live.
>> Yeah.
>> A few.
>> Oh, it's a neighborhood. I thought it
was only I see like two or three houses.
[music]
>> Wow.
>> I didn't realize that. Whole apartment
building. Okay.
>> So, they want to live in your English
line. So, that's what they do. Anyways,
that's uh if anybody wants this
expensive deer reserve if you want, but
uh basically so what happens over there.
Oh, so I'm saying when I was on a tour,
they pointed out they showed me a place
where that was that's where they say
this this was. Okay, I don't know if
they know all the details of the story
that I'm about to say. They didn't say
over the story. I know the story from
just so you know the place that they say
where this place is exist. So this big
opener in Hebrew is called a gay. That's
what it's called a guy. Okay. A gay in
Hebrew or in proper lashes is known as a
big opener.
>> Okay. Shai, something like that, right?
An an area, a place of residence, I
don't know, something like that, right?
A courtyard is going. Now, guess who was
the owner of this house? This wealthy
guy, you know what his name was? Bin
Henum. His name was Bin Hin. Like Ben
Hen. Ben Henom. The son of Henom. That's
who he was. That's who he was. His name
was Ben Henom.
Um, and he owned this gay. So, do you
already see the connections, guys? Yeah.
Gay Ben. Okay. It was gay benom. That's
what it was. That was the place that
that's what it is. And that is the
proper name, by the way, for gam it's
gay binom. Now, he does write even if
you want to put into one word, which you
can do, but when you put into one word,
there's in in the ni there was no v. So,
he says so writes it. So, people started
calling it go. It's a
they call it Gan, right?
>> Sounds like a nice place though.
>> What [laughter]
a big courtyard.
>> So So you're right. I didn't finish
saying what's in the courtyard. So it's
called people call it Ganam Gam, but
it's really gum because it's where they
think cuz his name was Ben.
Okay. So he says it's really and just
people make a mistake. Can say in case
you ever have to pronounce it like you
say gum not okay it's not gum okay for
those of you like like these things good
to know why was it going on in this
courtyard they weren't playing
basketball okay what were they doing in
this courtyard there was he says a big a
massive
guy okay a big made of bronze a bronze
made of I think copper made of copper
rather and he had his hands stuck out
like this had his hand stuck out like
this I'm sure if you've ever taken a
trip into India or something. I'm sure
you bumped into one of these guys
though, right? He was a big guy like
this. What?
[laughter]
>> He had his hands like this.
>> But where he put it, what they put in
between is inside
in between the two hands underneath was
a massive logba log bonfire, but
humongous. They say
you couldn't get even close to the fire.
There's like sparks flying everywhere.
Like you have to be careful. Really
strong strong fire. Okay. I mean you
could get close obviously look at the to
say and there was a priest a com that
was there they had a few karim that this
was their job and a person and Jews Jews
Jews would come and they would bring
their babies to sacrifice it to the
during the time manage
yeah this is what we know as mole it's
brought in the mole but in case you
didn't ever know what it was and the
priest comes and he takes the baby and
he puts him on the hands of the thing
and can move on smitherines in in
seconds. He says very very quick. But
what's an addition? So this is that's
why that's the first reason why it's
called Genum or Ghanam is known as a
place of fire cuz it was named after
this which is the place of fire. Over
here is a physical fire. There's a
spiritual fire but it's the same uh
idea. Follow. That's the first thing he
says. But it's also called tipate. Why
is it called? Because he says when they
would do this what would they have?
They'd have a few people on the sides
that would be pounding drums. Boom boom
boom boom boom. You not came before the
movies, right? Before the movies. What?
>> Voodoo. Yeah. Like mama like the voodoo
doll. Mom is like straight from the
movies. I'm saying they these guys got
everything from us. They got everything
from us.
>> They're all bound umbrellas. So he says
the reason why maybe there other
reasons, but he says the reason why they
do it cuz he says if you would start
hearing if the if the parents would
start hearing the crying of the baby,
they forget it. You know, we'll try
again later. Do you mind? Can we just
take it back?
>> So, so, so, so the the word for a drum
in Hebrew is a to a to. So, it comes
from the lion of P. So that from a to
that's why it's called uh tip but it's
also p of convincing because they would
do this pounding so they wouldn't hear
the crying when the baby would be put
into the thing. Can you imagine what
Kenny and this was a proper like Gumar
says that Manasha said you he appeared
to someone in dream and said if you were
in our time this you wouldn't you would
run after the it was a crazy and people
were doing it over and over again right
I want you to realize that it's such a
such a thing that people obviously had
this to be able to do it but these are
where the two names come from okay and
that's uh that's this idea now I want to
describe exactly what is about it's your
call I don't mind stopping to stop I
wouldn't normally I would wait till Next
week is huh it will stop say I'll take
it for two weeks next time I'll explain
to you what day a gam was created and
that will explain to you the details of
what happens again and we'll go through
the seven levels we'll
