Quran Zinyana we are in Gimel for the newcomers and to review.

It's always good.

Rabinatan writes in the introduction of the when learning, you always got to be looking back on your shoulder.

You're walking in a.

In a maze, you're walking in a castle.

You got to remember the structure of the building.

So Aleph bet Gimer.

You always got to keep looking back because the concepts change very quickly and the Khizukim are very strong.

And one little piece of information could be like a flash of light.

But you gotta always remember the context that the Rabbi is speaking about.

Each Torah is a building.

Each Torah is a binyan.

Each Torah is an edifice, is a tikkun, it's a mahalach in its own.

The answers of each Torah and your questions are found within them.

So you're gonna have questions in the Torah.

You're not going to understand things.

Things are going to be not clear.

When you have the whole Torah, you understand the ruach and the mahalech that the Rebbe wants.

Many times the person can learn the Kutuan.

I've heard it with my ears.

That person could be reading word for word, translating literally what's mitzing and completely explain the opposite of what Rabben is saying.

Because you take it out of context of the lesson.

The lesson is a big lesson with a lot of pieces of the puzzle.

You can take one word out and completely flip around what the Rabbein is trying to say.

So always I like at the beginning of this year, just to go a little bit back, we speaking about.

About the leader.

A leader needs to be by definition, Rahman.

If you are in a position of leadership, you have to use the attribute of mercy.

The real mer, the most merciful leader that we ever had, ever was Moshe Rabbeinu, that his involvement in Kalal Israel was not at all for his personal gain.

No thoughts about yourself at all.

The.

The Sadiq, he's thinking only about Kalal Israel.

And the reason is he's completely emulating Hashem.

Why did Hashem create a world where there's so many other people involved in your life?

And you can either be a taker or a giver, because to emulate Hashem, you need to be a giver.

Hashem could not have created the world.

He decided to be altruistically to create the world and completely be on the side of giving.

The more you on the side of the giving, the more you are like Hashem.

So the Sadiq that is completely giving to Ami Son everything he has Especially to help them spiritually.

So this is the real leader.

And therefore, even if we're not there, you know, you go to an opera, you go to see a band, you go to see an artist, you're not expected to be the same as him.

But you'll be inspired to pick up your game a little bit more by knowing who Moshe Rabbenu is, you're gonna start to act a little bit more rahmanut.

Especially in which domain saving people from sin.

The most pitiful situation that could be in ever for a Jew is to be involved in.

It is the heaviest thing, it's the most heavy thing that could be weighing on his soul.

And even though he might not know exactly what's going on with him, it can translate it into a lot of depressions, a lot of tavotions, all kinds of things because of the heaviness of the sin.

So they're looking for escape.

Sin is so they're always looking for escape.

But Sadiq is looking to give that to a person for him to understand.

It's not enough to stop you from sinning.

It's not enough to stop you on the moment.

I need to give you the brains, the mind, understanding to realize that you don't want to sin a teenager.

You can force him to do certain things, but that's not the way to mechanic a child.

You can force him do this, don't do this.

It's certain point they're not going to work.

You could sort of play with him a little bit, but as soon as, as soon as he's not underneath your control, he's going to do what you want.

But if you inform, if you, if you empower him, if you explain to him a certain point of teenager, you got to say you can do whatever you want.

There's a rabbi of Zville Rabbi was a great sadiq in.

He had a granddaughter that she barged in a teenager to the rabbi, Rabbi, I need five lira.

I'm going to the movies.

I need.

All my friends are going to the movies and going to the movies.

We're talking about Sadiq of Yerushalayim, Ban Mofet, Kodesh Kodashim that his grandkids should be going with the new wave of youth.

The Noah going to movies.

What do you do?

What would you have done?

What do you think the Rebbe did?

A slap close the door Yading in him.

That's not for us.

You know what he did?

He took out five, took out the few dollars, took a few penny, gave it to him he put in her hand as she's walking to the door.

He gives it to her with a smile.

He walks, she walks the door.

About to get the door, she says, one second.

My bt, I just want to tell you, if you go to the movies, it's going to break my heart in a million pieces.

He gave her the money.

He didn't force her.

He let her know how much he cares about her by saying, it's really going to hurt me that you're going to hurt yourself by doing that.

Do what you want.

Understand that when she doesn't go to the movie, it's her not going to the movie.

We need to give that to people to make sure they don't do.

That's what the Tzadik wants.

Then we said that all of these surin in the world do not compare to the surin of Davira.

And actually we said that if you don't have Haveirot, you don't feel you serene.

And this is a deep concept, but everybody has.

Yes, everybody.

Everybody's Haveirot.

But the question is, do you do a cleanup?

Once I was rocking with Ravkeni over here and it was snowing.

And you know, the Rav would always.

And it's crazy, he would always be aware of the surroundings, seeing the remes that Hashem was giving.

What is Hashem doing here?

So he's walking in Canada, in Montreal, in the winter, they don't have snow like we have.

And he sees the snow.

It was on Parkhaven.

I remember exactly.

It was.

It was snowing.

He's building up.

And he sees the big trucks.

You know, somebody comes to Canada and sees the trucks.

We're well equipped, right?

It snows a few hours later.

Unless it's a few days.

But not, not maybe not in.

In Westmount they cleaned up the same.

That depends.

They're already picking up really.

Anyways, so they have asked me, says the Khorah, you can ask a question.

Why are they picking up the snow now?

It's gonna snow again tomorrow, it's gonna snow again the day after.

Why would they pick up every day the snow?

So it's obvious answer, right?

What's the answer?

You don't pick it up today.

You know, how hard is it going to be to pick it up in two days?

And we need to be walk around today, we can't move around with the snow beam.

So even though we're gonna do it again tomorrow.

So that.

I said the same thing with Chuva.

The guy thinks, he says that I messed up today, messed up tomorrow.

What's the point of doing Shiva anyways?

Tomorrow I'm gonna do the again tomorrow.

Anyways, I'm gonna mess up again tomorrow.

So I am always in the same pattern.

So what am I gonna say?

Hashem, sorry, I don't want to do it again.

You better clean it up every day.

Every day you clean it up.

And even if you're gonna fall again tomorrow, eventually one day it's gonna stop stowing.

The summer is gonna come if you keep cleaning it up.

But if you don't clean it up, it's gonna be.

You're not gonna be able to drive, and it's going to be a lot harder when it comes.

So, yes, we do mistakes.

But a person, when he does vidui in the morning, when he has eat budidut every day and part of the every dude, if you have every day, if every 24 hours you have a meeting with Hashem, you know, you mess up during the day, you have a problem.

So what are you supposed to do?

What is the dehgh that Rabbeinu wants when you mess up?

So I already messed up one.

I'll do another one and forget about it.

And anyways, it's too much and the Torah is too strict, and I'm believing and sort of do, sort of don't do.

And the guy's a little bit heavy with abirot.

But if you say, okay, here's a mistake, I'm writing it down.

My pinchas, I'm putting on my to do list right now.

I'm not Mi', b, I'm going to shul.

I'm sameach.

I'm continuing even though there's.

I get to eat what they do.

I'll thank Hashem for the good things in my life.

And then I'm gonna take out my list.

You know, Hashem, I keep following this.

I keep messing up.

I have a big desire for this.

I have to have vot.

I don't have the tools to overcome it.

I'm telling you, I don't want to do this.

I'd rather not be this.

I'd rather be like that sadiq over there.

I'd rather be like that person.

I'd rather never get upset.

I'd rather never indulge.

But I'm just not able.

If you keep begging, Hashem, that's you clean it up even though you fall again tomorrow.

So you're light.

So Rabbeinu says, if you don't do the cleanup of your avirot so situations in life which could be hard or could be not so hard.

What, which is your.

What way will you be looking at the situation you're in?

It's going to be a lot harder for you to deal with and you're going to feel a lot more suffering if you're involved in sin.

That means the difficulties that might come in health or parnasa or.

Or shalom or difficulties or challenges person.

How do you.

How do you deal with that when it comes up, do you come.

Do you look at it as a catalyst to come closer to Hashem?

Hashem knows what he's doing.

A little Kappa Bo Hashem.

It could be worse.

There's so many much good in my life and yes, I have this little difficulty, but I'm able to take it in stride and I'm not broken from it.

And by the way, that Simcha, when the issuing comes, allows you to get out of the.

That will be your reaction when you're not person that has.

If there's.

There's all of a sudden complaining about Hashem, how could it do it to me?

Why does it happen to me?

Everybody else has.

I don't have.

I'm always going through this.

The suffering, the depression and the upsetness and the rebellion that's going to come is not from the.

The situation.

It's from the Abira.

It's from the abira.

Moshe Rabben was in a pit for 10 years.

Yosef Sadiq was in jail for 10 years.

It was the GMARA says there was Ishmatz 12 years.

The more says it was.

It was Ishmat.

There's a.

There's a midrash.

It says Ishmael Pizz.

He was jumping, he was dancing.

He was happy in jail, he was happy.

You're not happy with being in jail.

I want to say this many, many times over.

You don't thank Hashem for being in jail, but you can thank Hashem for all the good things that you have, even if you're in jail.

Understand?

It could be worse, huh?

You don't thank for suffering.

That's not true.

You thank for good things, you say thank you.

When you made money, you say thank you.

When you got bought a house, you say thank you.

When you had a baby, when person dies, you say Dayana.

When you lost money, you say Dayana.

Now, when you lose money, when you lose money and you had a big loss, what is your.

Yes, that hurts.

It hurts, but it's not Gha.

And what is your.

What is the attitude that you're supposed to have when the guy was seized, when the guy went bankrupt, when the guy lost, what is the attitude you're supposed to have?

Yes, that's hard.

Yes, that hurts.

It's Tov.

Hashem knows what he's doing.

This was the best thing.

And Bokashem, it could have been in health, it could have been in the kids, it could have been in something else, it could have been this.

Bokashem was only that.

And you know what?

It's good thing that I didn't lose all my money, because I still have an investment over there and I still have some source of parnasa and my wife still has a job.

So bokashem, it could have been much worse.

So you find yourself all the good that there still is in your life.

And you don't let yourself become broken by the difficult situation.

Understand?

So if what makes a person become sometimes hard situations and it's not so bad, why are you beating yourself up?

Why are you going to drink?

Or why are you going to do that?

Why are you making yourself meshuggah?

Okay, it's not so hard, but get over with.

It's the avirot, the begamin, the sekhim, that anything that goes not the way he wants to all of a sudden.

And then it's a spiral that's endless because then you're depressed, you do another vera and then you have another addiction and.

And another, you know, another to cover up this.

It's like covering up, you know, drinking salty water.

You're thirsty and drinking salty water.

It's not going to help you.

The caused the difficulty in life, not the situation you people situation looks like.

But they're happy.

You have people in great situations, money is not missing and family and they have a wife and everything.

And they're depressed and they want something else and they're not happy with anything.

It's not the situation, it's the avera.

And the tzadik understands this.

And that's why it's so pitiful to give to a person that don't do averot.

And that's why it's so good that we still learn Torah every day.

You know, even you're learning.

We learned eruvin.

You're going to learn.

The Gemara says that learning Torah protects you from sin.

Doesn't matter what you're learning.

It's like a buffer that all of a sudden you're going to see a lady, you're going to see something, you're going to have a desire doesn't talk to me the same.

You have a buffer that's protecting you from the tavah.

Any Torah that you learn, not only when you're learning it, even when you're not learning it, when you're learning it for sure, your mind is now involved, but even you're going to go outside the fact that you sat alone Torah in the morning and you'll come back and learn something at night.

The fact that you have these moments is protection.

So when Chachamim say get people to learn Torah, it doesn't matter what the Torah itself is machzin al mutam, it's protection from my berot.

So the tzadik is just trying to give that, that, that.

Let's see what he says a little more.

We're in Gimel near the bottom.

It's about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 lines from the bottom.

And God, I need you to be my watch.

We have another seven minutes.

When Klal Israel fell into sin, I am museven of Shanen beat Palen Badam Moshe Ben when amishra would sin, he was involved in self sacrifice to pray for them.

Like the, like the miraglim kayotze kiadan shiddefi kedushat Israel.

They're so far from sin that, that the heaviness on the soul.

So the tzadik also could be a chip for you.

You go to the tzadik, he's involved in taking away the dinim on you.

You know that sometimes a person can have a lot of dinim on him, a lot of difficulties coming out and that sadiq can do things over there to take them off.

There's stories of Baba Sali.

A guy came into the babasaleh and the Baba Sali started to give it to him and a little bit tough on him.

And they told him, rabbi, we never saw you like that.

He said, what can I tell you?

I saw the same men behind him coming, gonna kill him.

I think the guy, maybe Rabino tend to check out the story.

He was the driver for a truck.

And that same day there was a crash and he was saved.

But he was saved.

But the babasali took off the deen by giving him a busha.

And that's nothing he could do like that.

When you come to Oman, you missed your flight, you didn't get your bag.

All of a sudden it's not the bed you were supposed to get.

And you're.

And you have a, and you have a blocked ear for in Oman and you can't get out of bed, all that is the tikkun, you came to me.

The sadiq is going to give you a little bit of bitterness.

It's taking away a lot of problems that you could have during the year.

He's.

It's unspecial that sadiq can do that.

So the tzadik is going to go.

And you notice.

You notice that the tzadik, when he comes to Amisra, when he comes to Hashem, he's always pleading the case of Amish.

He's saying, hashem, you know, you created them with yet Sahara, and it's not easy for them.

And how.

What do you expect from them?

And when he's coming to Amisad, so you did a big sin, and he's giving him tochachan.

So he's being on each side, doing.

He's going to get a little bit of chupa from Amislen, from Shem.

He's getting rachmen.

He's making peace between them, taking off the dinim u be' metz mechan bayin nabonot.

What causes a person to do something wrong?

The only reason a person will sin is he doesn't have sekhem.

You have a spirit of folly, of foolishness, of craziness, a lack of reality, lack of perception.

You understand what that means, right?

If you were completely aware of the purpose of life, you understand completely.

This is like a little passage.

You're just here to get mitzvot.

You're just here to know Hashem.

You're just here to do good things.

And we tell you you're gonna have tests.

Part of the way of giving you good is giving you tests.

Like we said the other time.

If I tell you that you're gonna go outside and somebody's gonna pour a bucket of.

A bucket of coke on your head or is gonna give you a slap or yell at you, I tell you it's gonna happen.

You're gonna go out, you're gonna get yelled at.

But if you pass it, I'm gonna give you ten thousand, twenty thousand, hundred thousand.

It's easy.

So when you have that, there's no nisayon.

So if I tell you this life is the challenge, this life is the test, this life, we're gonna put you a lady at work, she's gonna talk to you, and you're gonna have to fight it.

That's what's gonna be.

So, okay, you have the abilities to upcome.

But if you have no doubt, if you don't know these things or if you're not strengthening these things.

And if you're weakened in them, you don't really understand that.

Also, if you made a mistake, you can fix.

I already made a mistake.

What's gonna change?

You can fix it if you don't know these things.

So that's natural.

Natural.

If we give you the clarity of the way that the rules of the game, of the game is being played.

So it's easy not to sin.

So the tzadik is only giving that and taking away the shtut from the person.

Therefore, the best thing you could do for anybody ever is the biggest favor you could do for them.

The biggest kindness you could do for them is to give them wisdom, to give him brains.

Praiseworthy is the one who gives sekim to a poor person.

He calls the poor person a guy lacking wisdom.

The real poor person is here in his mind.

Because, let's be honest, a guy is just making ends meet.

He has the minimum for groceries.

He has a lot of kids.

He's living very Tsim Tsum.

He could be completely happy and become like a rich person.

His.

His.

His demeanor and his life.

And when sits on Shabbat and the simcha that they could have in the house.

Yeah.

Hashem didn't give us so much, but look how much good we have that we're Yiddin and we have Shabbat and we have mitzvot that we can help people.

And we know Torah.

We're rich.

I went to my son recently to somewhere, and I came and I said, nachman, you think they're rich?

We're rich.

Look at.

Okay, we have scratch on the floor.

And we have not all the same chairs in the house.

No, we don't have all the same chairs.

You're gonna come to my house.

You're gonna see one chair like this.

One chair like this.

Why?

Because I don't want to have debts to buy new chairs, get money.

Hashem's gonna send me new chairs.

But in the meantime.

So you have all the nice chairs.

But what is the.

The simcha level of your house?

But if we're singing and we're doing it so.

And we're advancing in Torah, who is rich?

I told my son we're rich because we have.

We don't do abirot.

If you do have, you could be rich and be poor.

The poorest person is the person who's sinning.

Our job is to have pity on them, to give them wisdom, to be able to stop them from sin.

Now everybody can do this.

And I want to tell you one more thing, that there is always a Yetzara to be involved in personal growth.

We always want to grow ourselves.

And sometimes when we can have opportunities to help others.

And there she could have yetzer ga to say, I'm gonna do for myself.

Obviously, you gotta do for yourself.

You cannot give over if you're not full.

The more you fill yourself, the more you're gonna have what to give.

We're gonna see later that actually the more you have kedusha and yerat shamayim, the more your words are effective.

But Alpha Beken, we have to be aware that small dibu gim little things that you could say.

And I bet you if everybody will think in their own lives, was there not people that came and started to give you a little bit second, when you're.

When you were not holding there, those little comments, that little book, that little come to a shield, that little of Mizaki, the people, that's what changes a person.

So be on guard.

And especially that you, you're going to work, you're going outside.

The guys in the kola, they have to teach people at night, they gotta give a Shir on YouTube.

But the ones who are going outside, that you see people day in, day out.

Why did Hashem put you next to that person?

Why is he in your life?

You have Sekhel, you have Tefillin, you're coming to the shir.

What are you gonna do for that person that you know that he's doing things?

Okay, I saved my life and I saved my family.

And what about him?

It's like a boat.

If you have a guy in a boat, he's making a hole.

He has his seat, he's making a hole.

He took a drill.

You're sitting next to him.

So you're gonna say, that's his problem, my problem.

You're not gonna do that.

My buddy, what are you doing?

You're making a hole.

He says, hey, I paid my seat, and you leave me alone.

No, no, we're on the boat together.

Your holiness affects me.

Your averot affect Klalisren.

So actually, I'm doing a service to Klalisren.

And you will never lose by giving.

You think that some person thinks that?

Yeah, I'm gonna just take care of myself.

Not gonna evolve.

Don't you know that?

Actually, the more you give over, the more you get Torah in this Torah, we're gonna see it.

The more you teach, the more you get new downloads.

So actually, the way for you to grow the most is to be evolving, helping somebody else.

So now if we're learning Liquid 7 million together.

And this is our mahalik for a few months.

Everything we have to do is here.

Go outside, look around.

Who could you give some daat?

It might be the smallest measure of daat.

It might be just mentioning God's name in the conversation when you're with them.

But make a project out of them to try to give a little bit of daat every once in a while.

Every once in a while.

Be friendly, be nice and try to give and see who's receptive to receive some daat.

So that's the biggest service you could do to anybody.

Hazakab.
