Shalom
everybody so what I'd like to do is just
share with you
um I I don't have all the kinds of pukin
to bring and rashes and and all that
good
stuff I imagine you've heard a few
already to but I'd like to just share
with you and and not for a long time
because I know no one likes a really
long
div so the U actually a joke I heard
once that was said I know no one likes
along Dart I just have no life giving
them
the the but what I'd like to discuss
is we're all here right now first night
of what's the what's the what's what's
our
job is this just a
commemoration of u a war we want just
the S our
succeeding in the battle against the
Great
and the great culture winning that
battle is that what this is all
about and I would assume that it is
definitely a victory holiday this is
definitely Victory holiday we did win a
tremendous Victory and we were in deep
deep trouble with the Greeks and the
chances of uh of uh I mean on the other
hand how bad could it be we're an
eternal Nation I me God would have saved
us no matter what I think
but how he saved us and when he saved us
and that he saved us the miracle of the
the
oil has led us to this great
holiday but I'd like to pause it that
we're actually losing badly at this
point to the
Greeks and then I think through
understanding how badly we're losing
then we'll get a sense of of what our
actual war is what this battle is and
how we can celebrate the battle in be um
to fight the battle as is appropriate
right now in um 200 whatever year this
is
15 again the uh we're not a
commemorative tradition whenever it says
Z it's from the word Z is the same
letters of Zar and zahar means masculine
and masculine alala means means to draw
down is to uh start to cause a flow of
something so every holiday that's a is
always really a flow and our job is to
get in aligned with that flow and draw
down whatever it is so for
example to get the flow
of when we go into it's to
be and that's the time to get the flow
[Music]
when we get
to forgiveness each day has a flow what
is the flow of of
uh what's our VOD here what are we
supposed to be drawing into our lives
tonight and for the next eight
nights and what is our battle what's our
Han
battle what's the battle for us so first
of all just to paint the Grim picture of
how badly we're losing the Greeks were
not just a nation the Greeks were a
culture and they were trying to uh you
know spread that culture throughout the
world they certainly were good at it and
we see just how good they were at it
because even though they're long gone
Greek culture has lived on the when the
Greeks already disappeared there was
still after that was the Romans and an
ancient Europe and it's moved its way
all the way to the United States of of
America and being a good boy I always
say the United States of Asa and the
I'm I'm allowed to be a not good boy
here so anyway all the way to the United
States of ASAP where I just flew back
from on Friday and I'm telling you I'm
so happy to be back and I kept warning
people there and it was really scaring
them and then all of a sudden that
terror attack in Los Angeles hit like
right after I was warning everybody and
then they came back the next day I was
in the middle of running but might
possibly use seminars so I have them
every day and I the first day I told
everyone like get
out get out get out of the US and the um
and it and it seems if I can just speak
politically just for the next 30 seconds
it really seems like like yes's going to
take them
down I just I just took a picture of the
the cover of the New York Times when I
got in my flight you know they gave out
newspapers the New York Times showing
the news of what happened in California
oh my gosh I just couldn't believe it
they they they it was already known that
they were terrorists so so it said they
didn't want they had to use the word
Terror because it been known but they
couldn't use the word Terror so they
said it was a day of Terror people were
terrified that was the headline and then
when you go on the next line the the
line under the picture of you know
whatever the picture was in California
there the next line was the major
headline for the story what was the
story the story was how how
statistically often it happens that
someone shoots people meaning like that
someone does a shoot up and it and in in
and this happens every day somewhere on
the
planet that was they're going to be
their story they missed it right over
the top and so 30 seconds almost we're
about 25 the cuz I don't want to go on
on this but I just want to say that the
that my sense is that is is going to
take Rome down that is is going to take
Rome down and we're just going to watch
just going to watch and but it's not
going to be pretty and in the hotel
where I let a shatone there was an
actual anti teror cop American anti
Terra cot trained by whom who do you
think Isel yeah yeah that's right
trained by Israel two different major
stints months long in Israel miss his
wife and kids to learn his his duty and
he just said like he he admitted like we
have no idea what we're doing and and
even this hotel has no perimeter like
it's only the hotel that I'm watching
like there's no perimeter security nor
is there any perimeter security we you
notice in Israel there's always a
perimeter security way before the actual
place you're Gathering and
no perter and and he said that that in
the next four years you're just not
going to believe what's going to happen
while waiting I got sh protex as a
gentile police officer in Connecticut he
says you just have no idea what's going
to happen over the next four years he
says that's going to be four years of
complete denial and then and it's going
to get only more intense for 10 he said
whoa God should protect our brothers and
sisters is out there they should wake up
and come home um I found though across
the boards whether they were from the
most secular with Zionist feelings all
the way to the most
observant uh that not a single person
was comfortable with the
subject of it and when everyone looked
at me like what do you want us to do and
I finally said to them I'll tell you
this much no plan is totally responsible
I don't care if you make a 10year plan I
don't care if you get to the 10 years
and you make a new 10year plan but no
plan that's just denying the Torah and
the Torah says he's bringing us back and
we've got we're back in you know at
least half our Biblical land besides
obviously Lebanon and parts of Syria and
we've got we've got uh the majority of
Jews now at least if you go by the
strictest h definition you got the
majority of Jews in here since last year
since not sh the year before right at
the C of shita which means we just had
our first D
shita and we are in in 2500 years since
first temple second temple didn't have a
majority since in 2500 years we had our
first
Der and um we're in very very special
times but you couldn't even merch the
topic with people across the Spectrum
you couldn't Burch the topic with scary
and uh looking at you all
it's really special to see people who
who uh just somehow have the instincts
the
intuition what I would just call common
sense but just the common sense to to go
with what God said let's go with what
God Said God said he's going to take us
out and it's what it says and I'm not
talking about like later n I'm talking
about sacred dear you know it's over and
over again he's taking us home he going
to bring us back so here we are On
Eagle's Wings you know Rashi describes
these Eagle's Wings as uh the eagle
holds its young because it's the king of
the Skies so it holds its young from
from above on its wings well guess what
Eagles actually hold their young like
all other birds they hold it in their
talons hold their birds in their
talons how can Eagle's Wings if he's
going to bring us home On Eagle's Wings
it's pretty strange that we would think
think anything good airplanes when
you're on that airplane I sat on the
wing this trip I kept trying to see the
view all I could see was I'm on the
wing you're literally on the way and
what was got I mean are we supposed to
take something like that literally he's
going to bring us back on the Eagle's
Wings it's it's so clear that's the
Eagle's Wings what you God had to say
you're going to come back on
LOL and no said okay The
Eagles I mean if if y who was U
y's son or grand I think y was his
grandson the Greeks were the grandson if
yam was
upstairs and the grandchildren of of uh
Shem his brother and they were having a
little meeting about who's had a bigger
impact on the world who how are we doing
in
2015 who do you think who do you think
would win that discussion if they're
just reviewing the planet you know
they're just watching it you know and
just seeing reviewing it people by
person by
person they're checking out they have
great scanners so they're like scanning
the real estate of your brain to see if
it's like more Greek or more Jewish you
know and they're checking out everybody
across the planet how's y doing right
now how's Yan doing right I mean they're
just doing unbelievably okay yes may
take them down but until they do you
know they seem to be they seem to be
doing quite well and you know the
blessing that y got even though we know
the root of yit has to do with yofi but
it also means to expand and they are
expanders you know shemites us guys and
ishmaelites and Indians all the benur
and all those people they're not
expansive people we we keep to ourselves
we we simple fol people in the book keep
to ourselves whoa you go to yit the
westerners and there are expansive
people in fact every one of us I bet
unless you have one of these kosher FS
which makes us automatically not friends
the was a Facebook joke
the
[Music]
but in every joke there's a little bit
of truth it's kind of rough to be
friends with people who can't text
so but I'm not one of those like call
folks I'm happy to speak to you on the
phone it's just I'm busy so and I don't
want to stand people up cuz they
couldn't reach me I like to look at my
text and call people who called while
was teaching or rning program
on
I don't remember what I was saying oh
yeah um western
western yeah so the Greeks the Greeks
are doing great and the truth is I
wonder about myself I wonder about
myself like if if yavan and if yavan and
abam were going to go through me I'm not
sure who would really win first of all I
was dipped in Western culture in
California yeah literally dipped in it
double
dipped Los Angeles double dipped in
Western
culture and so that kind of a Furniture
in my mind like putting on like the seon
headspace the headspace of Amo the
T to put that that's an app I use tour
is an app I use you understand my my my
my factory setting is my upbringing in
Los Angeles okay
La yeah L LA
knew this is that's my that's the
factory setting that's default it's
default you hear my voice is it's like
you know I get up here probably you
probably thought I was from Brooklyn or
something Y where was you we was looking
for
you
I'm di in Western culture
and it's very strong it's very actually
I I'm even nervous to speak in such a
place the it's very and but it's an app
it's an app I have to press on that app
to like get my Torah eyes on to I got to
put in the Tor software to understand
events going on around us
you know on the way over here first of
all I got pulled over speeding yeah I
was in no hurry I just like to drive
fast that's Greek the cop pulls me over
he's like what in the world are you
thinking and I said I said well there's
no one around first of all it wasn't
like anyone was in danger and secondly
I'm a mountain
biker and I've just got a Need for Speed
and that's what I said to him and he's
just just like just slow it down brother
slow it down s me on my way as usual
they never they they you can't give me a
ticket you can't I I'm already 25 years
driving here and every they beg me they
beg me to give me not to give in ticket
meaning I Begg them to give me a ticket
they won give me a tiet you know why I
learned years ago about cops see cops
they're afraid of losing control when
they're little and somebody that gun
just keeps them warm and and when they
pull you over it they're sure you're
going to argue that you were right so I
argue that I was wrong when they say 70
I say 75 when they say light was red I I
say you know it was it was red a long
time before I even got
there I'm telling you they don't know
what to do it's so disarming you know
I'm telling you I came speeding around
the corner I just said said listen you
know I can go go crazy sometimes what I
told him I'm non biker and sometimes
I that's what I said and he was just
like just slow it down just slow it
down anyway so try that from now just
give them the power give the power give
your wife the power of good watch how
much she chills out I recently my wife
you know she she was I don't remember
what she said but I just new to give her
the power I give her the power grabbed
my toow bag run to the oven coming back
I'm like I'm tiptoeing into the house
just to get in and get out quick based
on how the morning went and I just want
to get in get out she want to drop
theill it off and run she greets me at
the door I'm like uhoh and she's like
can I make an omelette and I'm like an
omelette uh okay what's the catch and
and she's like how about freshly
squeezed orange juice I'm like sure and
I sit down I'm eating breakfast like a
king in there why what did I give
her give her the power she needed she
needed a vent she to say some stuff I
made a couple mistakes I'm sure and I
only
listen and I would have been but she
really she made some points what do most
men do fight
if you if you attack your husband he
will fight and there's but there is a a
good percentage of husbands that will
flight they will go to a 3our
m they will they will say they have to
go to the bathroom but their smartphone
will be in
hand they'll be back in 3
hours I didn't just come here of humor
you guys
listen the point is is that we got a
serious fight in our hands let me just
thicken the plot here because it's not
so clear what the fight is first of all
they're winning and they're winning
badly like they're really winning this
one and I know that because I'm a Jew
who lives I'm in the MF every morning
I'm ding I'm studying cabala for like 20
something years I'm sticking to the RIT
I'm I I do you know I'm I'm pretty
intense about my Jewish life I'm very
intense
when I be kidish by the time I'm done
there's no wine in the
cup it's just
everywhere the way
drive
so and I know I know I'm not winning any
awards in abam and yvan's discussion up
there I know I'm not winning any awards
for sure I'm not winning
even I I would have come in here earlier
except I was watching a surf tournament
in my car
downstairs North Shore is like we like
40 ft I watching turn turn turn turn
with live oh my gosh I don't know how to
speak anymore
listen it gets even the matters get even
more intense because everything the
Greeks were into we into
we're perfect with them like they like
music hey we like music they like
architecture we like architecture
they're extreme Aesthetics we're extreme
Aesthetics we love
Aesthetics they love the cuisine we love
quisine they venerated Health we
consider the body of the temple it's our
body is a temple how is it our soul got
take care of it we're we're we get along
with them too well you could say we get
on too well and that was really our
downfall in Israel is that when they
took us over Greeks generally honored
the cultures they took over they more or
less wanted to just Farm your your
resources back to Greece they more or
less left you alone and they would have
left us alone too in general but we just
we just get along too well we're we're
too we're too like them in a way CU
because we get it we get that there's
something called Beauty in this world we
get a good wine we get a good shab is me
we we we love this world we're not monks
in India you know imagine when they took
over the Indians the Indians were just
like what is wrong with these
monkeys but when they took us
over you know we were we were also into
it you know we we like Beauty we love
beauty cuz it's aem's world
Ram says like part of aim is look at the
beauty the Yi look the
beauty and and feel the when you when
you look at it we just get along too
well with the
Greeks and you see how much they can lay
inroads into our hearts and minds and
and wallets oh my gosh I mean just
Amazon I was on Amazon today two two
items I was interested in and then add
all my teenagers on an iPad oh my gosh
it's like an Amazon
war war every time I go to the US I I
took a photo of this I can show it on my
phone when I arrived at my ChatON in Las
Vegas the couple you know were housing
me they they uh Anderson RAB the CH the
you know what do you call the the uh
what do you call the young whipper
snapper rabbis who come to synagogues to
work the assistant Rabbi the assistant
Rabbi the assistant Rabbi and his wife
were just kind of smirking when I walked
in the door and thought it was there was
something funny I didn't know what it
was I get in the room you couldn't get
to the bed from the from the UPS
packages that my you know teenagers had
set in there it was it was just
unbelievable and I travel with nothing
I'm a surfer from California all I need
is basically what I'm wearing and I've
been wearing it for like months now and
I mean they changed my undergarments but
that's not it we don't have to discuss
that in any detail
now not only I pack a whole bag I pack a
whole duffel that I
brought I'm overweight on both bags it's
10 bucks a pound yeah and I get to the
thing and I'm just like God this is your
chance please save me put him put him on
the scale and the L's like you're a
rabbi and I'm like yeah this going well
this going well she's like my
Godfather's a rabbi anyway I almost
missed my plane a half hour later she's
in tears and she's just crying and
crying over her Rabbi passed away her
Godfather she lost her
Godfather and this sweet lady from
Georgia whatever anyway she took both of
my over we bags by the time by the time
the discussion was over they were
already on the belt and she don't worry
about the
bags it's like me and the
cops me and the cops very hard
to I know that lady
is oh I just got just now on Friday
coming here I got so popped at JFK I was
42 LB
overweight That's $420 overweight and
they were not like this guy wasn't cry
that his
got by a long shot oh my gosh so he was
helpful he sent me to the first floor he
said I bought a suitcase it would just
be 100 bucks plus the
suitcase Made It by 30 seconds before
they shut the flight for more B oh just
a little
stressful anyway so that's what I wanted
to do to fatten it up is just to say we
get along too well here we just get
along with these people and
um so then what is our battle what's our
battle what the battle so I going to
share with you what the batt was and
I'll end with this but it's not going to
be like concluding remark Works
everything I've said till now was the
introduction just kidding kind of okay
so first of all I want to teach you a
little bit of cabala cabala okay no
one's going to levitate here but the the
top of the line in the Hebrew alphabet
the top of the line I mean above the
letter that's called sham or that's the
spiritual and the Baseline is called the
that's the material that's the physical
physical world so any letter that's
touching strong into the
physical you know like uh a me is going
to be very grounded you know that's a
mikah the shap even Nik the men's a very
grounded
letter AUD is the opposite a yud is a
very floating letter so you know just it
doesn't even touch the earth and the you
is called H because it's just ideas
ideas like for example tonight you uh
had to make plans and you were thinking
what should I do tonight should I go to
this event I
go it's all you that's all you stuff but
when you came in here and you walked
through the doors you were just like you
were in V land V is just a yud that's
been implemented it's an implemented
yud you hear that my mind works very
associatively have a very strong right
brain it just does its thing my left
brain is like I left it
I left it a bangar or something I I
don't have a left bur which costs me a
lot of money because I always have an
assistant who's my V I pay a guy
fulltime to be my V every idea gets
implemented by him or next by him and
then and he is my he's my guy and oh my
gosh I forgot to tell him
some it's hard for him to be my guy if I
don't tell him things but uh someone
just remind me please after this lecture
that I have to um I just have to tell
them my new idea for my new flyer that's
such a cool idea it's going to be
amazing it's I'll just tell you quick
it's a skydiver shooting out of an
airplane and the next skyd is about to
jump and you identify with him obviously
and and it says it says courage is for a
moment regret is for a
lifetime the possibly you
s cool right is that cool I came up with
that uh during
[Laughter]
sorry which gives it a
special just know it
was let's just hope
it's people actually come
because so just send a
reminder thank you oh you did thank you
very
anyway Y is pure idea the V is the
implementation of thata idea let's look
at the word yavan the word of the Greek
of Greeks we got the Y how are the
Greeks in ideas were the Greeks good in
ideas oh my gosh there's really I don't
think ever been a
civilization that's so powerfully shap
the minds of humanity to the point where
we're all really I mean again I hope
we're in but we're all from you know
you're understanding my English you
definitely have been deeply touched by
the because that is the original
Furniture of the western mind and it has
not gone far from there it's developed
it's evolved and it's
it ideas of all kinds ideas that made no
sense I studied philosophy in University
ideas that just were proven wrong even
but they were beautiful at form the uh
democracy you see even you universities
you know which are supposed to be about
the universe
and all the details of the universe you
see they very much relate to the Greeks
you know it says all kinds of Greek
stuff on those exams you know those
multiple guest exam forms had some Greek
on it and uh multiple or multiple guas I
guess in my school was multiple guas and
the and the the beauty was if you were
Jewish you can get a c on any multiple
guess exam just amazing
okay that wasn't funny
um the Greeks were amazing in ideas tell
me how were they at implementation at
the VV how were Greeks at the V
implementation unbelievable if you ever
go see the Greek ruins which are
everywhere because they conquered half
the Earth if you go see the Greek ruins
Athens all these places it's just like
whoo and then you add the Roman ruins
like kesari and all these places
and no one can touch that especially in
ancient times I mean they were just
unbelievable probably the the most
expansive in their thinking in their in
their architecture and everything they
were doing so their V was of highest
caliber perhaps in history so you got
the
Yu top of the world V top of the world
what's the next letter the no a final
note that just goes
like straight into the dark side I mean
what is below the line below the line
the final noon which represents the no
from no
right boom right into the dark side why
why and now we're getting to the war why
because they don't have a m has MO
the M
sh they didn't have that great ideas
great implementation and then it goes to
hell because if you don't have a moral
compass if you have a civilization
without aoral Compass pulls the plug
it's just the way it goes and you know
now that we've lost the universities to
the dark side it's interesting it's
interesting back to the the Civ ation
out there the people I could not even
broach the topic of moving to Israel
with you know the universities are gone
they're
gone it's just unbelievable and I just
heard I hate to say it live like this
because I still haven't verified it but
I heard it from a very reliable source
there of North Weinberg said that all of
his students were leading branches all
over the world are to come back to
Israel when he lose the campuses he said
that will the sign that it's over and
our work is
finished I'll just give you an example
of it you is hey I'm going to split an
Adam and power a whole city V is I can
build V is I build a nuclear power plant
and power that City no is we're going to
put that on the Warhead and kill a whole
city of
people that's the idea
of that's and you even see it's
beautiful of form if you look at the
word y
yeah it's actually you know it's
like oh wait I'm going the wrong way for
you
guys
right I mean it's shapely it's shapely I
mean the whole thing when I draw it on a
board people don't even know meaning for
like Birthright they don't know it's a
word they think I'm making like a
sculpture or something it looks like a
sculpture it does not look like like a
uh a
name cuz it's just the point
line longer line and it's all about
having no Compass it's all about having
no Compass nothing to bring you back to
Hashem and if you look at the letter s
that's what I want to focus on because
these are the partials of
Y this
is last
week this week in the
case next week week after these are the
part of
look at the sadik it's amazing totally
on the Baseline right sadik's totally on
the Baseline completely like a man
grounded in the world not in the
Himalayas you know offering flowers to
some God it's got total
Baseline comes up and guess what letter
that is when a sopur writes a a sadic
what letter is that it's a n but the N
pulled his feet up from the Dark Side
it's just like the final noon but and
it's the same length by the way it's got
to be the same length so it like pull
it's a final noon but it's pulled its
feet up to the Baseline keep it kosha
yeah keep it kosha that s keep it in
kosha he brings his feet up but what's
coming off the left side up there what's
coming off that sadic up there oops I'm
going the wrong way with you guys again
aren't I it's this way isn't
it yeah and what's going on that way
over here it's the Y it's the it's back
to the but it's not just any y cuz
really every letter starts with the of
the of the is the that's the what is
that other y that's the that's the
because there's two levels
of beyond the world and then
there's of the world in the world it's
all secrets in Su can only be 20 hours
it's the two
years but s he looks like this but s's
hands are in sh he realizes everything's
happening up there it's all coming down
from up there that's the
Sonic and when you add the word yavan
yavan you add it s to the word yavan you
add the moral compass you bring Hashem
into the
Greek you bring Hashem into the no you
bring AEM into the ideas you bring AEM
into the implementation when you bring
AEM into all that it
spells is the
word is the promise in the future that
all will come back comes
back is in the future tense almost
always unless you're looking at it's
always in the future or
Tau
future
fure the
future but what is it it's the
industrialized world coming to hasem Y
is an
industrialist he's Alan greens Manan
he's he's he's Baki he's he's uh who's
this lady now Yellen what's her first
name
Jan what Janet Janet I'm shirts
