you're here with us it's a miracle every week every week i'm praying uh that you could join us we know that you are really busy you are doing a lot of things uh with the music and uh with the jewish communities all over the world and in israel and fat and all the things that you do so thank you so much for joining us it's uh thank you brother thank you it's uh it's a big honor and i love you so much and and it's so beautiful to get also the feedbacks uh to know that this study you know we're doing together with with uh with friends with uh uh friends that are with us on this study and it's amazing it's uh it connects every uh every week um to the time it's so so critical you know we we are in times now that every person um could have a could have a opportunity now of of getting a new kind of consciousness because the world is changing and one of the most critical things is and to understand the changes of the general times it's also to connect to the times itself every day has its has its uh has its uniqueness uh and and and if we have a disconnection tool to the time that we have every week to the portion it's it's a it's a very critical um uh um uh exercise but also to connect to the general time that the whole world is in now um of this pandemic and to understand that this pandemic is a present that god has given us you know with all of the difficulty it's a present because i think that one of the things we're getting now is we're losing faith in leadership and it doesn't mean that there doesn't need to be leadership in the world it means that the leadership that we're used to is not right and god is telling us in a lot of ways hey i'm the leader god is the leader and what we see today is a very big confusion of of and i don't want to say opinion because i'm not i don't want to be in the size at all okay and this is this is this is what's ridiculous that we all the whole world got into a whole a situation and for two years already and we see that there is no leadership and and this is a huge present because the second we lose faith and what's wrong it leaves us a place to have faith in what's right and bizarre the shaman with god's willing that we could all have the present in our private way and find a new kind of leadership in ourselves everyone first of all and through that also a new kind of of leadership that would be expressed through every person in the world and and and and stop being dependent in politics because politics is is is management politics is not vision for for a couple of generations really politics is management people's vision don't want to get so dirty sorry you're right you're right thank you so much for this this is this is so true and we need to to to remind this to to ourselves every time that we're starting to study that the the bible as you said that our torah is is something that it's not um something from the history it's something that we take the stories and the secrets and the things from the torah and we bring it every week to what's happening in the world and this is the most important thing to do and this is why we are teaching as you said we are teaching torah every week every day we're doing it because we believe that it's not something like how do i say it like two to three to uh forget that no no i wanted to say that it's not something that you are like when you missed something when you miss something and you want to to remind yourself that you had something you know no it's not it's not it's not nostalgic yeah yeah yeah yeah it's time for this memory memory you know the difference between nostalgics and memory yes is is is that nostalgics a person when in the present you he takes himself out of the presence to other situation that was or you sometimes will make it up that but but that's nostalgic we always want to feel what was once it's like a person sits in a restaurant and all what it speaks about is other restaurants you weren't oh you remember what nate wants what you're eating now tell me what is the taste now what do you feel now in your tongue now and and that's memory because memory you could remember something that happened but that that strength the the positive feelings that you have now even if if it makes the moment negative okay so it's comparing to something else and it's losing the moment that's the difference between nostalgics and memory all right so today we're going to speak about potion puma and i can i can feel that there is a connection between what we're going to speak right now uh on the portion uh and what we spoke you know and what we just spoke because uh in this portion it's a very technical portion when you read it about how to build uh the house uh uh to god um and if you only read the the the orders of what we need to do as you said you can say wow it's so it was so beautiful it looked so amazing and and and but this is not what we're going to speak about we're going to speak about different things and about what is the movement of giving and what is the movement of of building the house of god and i need to tell you a story yeah all right and what you said now okay a story that happened to me what once they come once okay a little story i just want to say that this this story every week we're doing uh uh this lesson sorry another story this lesson uh for healing for those who need the healing we are mentioning their names so please write the names on the chat we will do a small break in five minutes from now to mention the names um that this lesson will be for their healing okay they're studying yeah they're stunning this time they're studying together it is happening so i just want to to um um uh to say something about something that you said and it really i didn't think about this before but reminded in the story not nostalgic story um uh a moment of memory came to me when you just stated about technical so like around uh 22 years ago when i was still in the army so when i drove once in this porsche before this portion uh from from the army back home and and on the weekend so i sat next to a friend of mine from my unit you hear me yeah yeah yeah so i sat and i was reading the portion this portion puma listen to this okay and he and he and he looked and he asked me told me tell me something about the person you know was sitting next to me and down in the bus and and i told him exactly what he said okay listen i said you know it's very technical this portion you know it's it's uh there's not exclusive stories listen to this in shabbat it was after a very intensive week you know i don't know maybe a couple of weeks i didn't come to my house i was very tired in that shabbat i came home we know what it is to be in the army the commandos and yeah i got in java i collapsed in my parents house fell asleep in the night i had this dream okay uh old man long white beard white dressed white came to me started to explain to me was in shabbat about every part of the of the mishkan the mishkan is there's different names we would cry like it's it's that it's that it's the basic of the temple okay it's the it's that is the it's the heart of the temple yeah you want to say how there's difference there's different translations to this but it's important to hebrew enable to understand what the word means it comes mishkan is also the same letters of is the expression of of of god in this material world because there is there is a light but and it's like oxygen but do we see it or don't we don't we don't we see it and when we could really feel it and sense it and smell it and hear it and and taste it and feel it that that's that that means that we are the true uh um a presence and and and so mishkan is the heart is the expression it's a place that that went with the ambitious israel with the people of israel in the desert okay it was a like a quarter and they were in the courtyard um all of the instruments that in this instruments with these instruments we worshipped god but i want to explain something it's very important there's something very important so he explained to me i woke up in the morning i woke up like i was very like i was i was excited but in the morning i went to a rabbi in spot and i told him what is this and he told me you you got a present and a lot of times i'm trying to remember yeah so i i a lot of times when i have ideas maybe i relate them to to what wasn't that dream but i i didn't i wasn't shabbat i didn't write it and also when i woke up it was very excited but what i do remember is that everything had a reason that's connected to the general world built and i do want to say things from my study yes and i i hope that that that they're right enough to connect what was in the dream okay but from my study i would give example like and it is very important to just to relate before we relate to the the two the the the vessels there's like the menorah the menorah is is is is is you have you it has like candles you have seven candles that come out of the mineral that the kohen used to light them every day you had um um um the tabernacle you know is that they did that it was outside yes but inside the in the holy of holies that's how they call it there was the cabinet and and the crew man they had two angels like like there designed the top and sorry that and in the end over there inside were the tabernacles okay the the the i'm sorry the aloha they were in they were in the cabinet in arunabul okay all these instruments before we touch every one of them yes i just want to explain one thing that's very important to understand why do we need this at all our relationship with god is straight why do we need instruments what are we it's it's a it's a dangerous idea of idolatry what we need we need something in the middle and over here is something very critical to understand about what the mishkan brings to the world tells the world balance if you think that working god worshiping god is only being spiritual your that's ideology if it's only material that's ideology and the true way is always to search for god through everything that god created and that's why yes there is holiness in holy places and holy and holy and holy books and there is it doesn't make the book a god it doesn't it doesn't make the the temple a god but it does make a place holy it makes it makes the ceremony holy that's a memory it's critical that we have this and remember that if we are not balanced we can't have it because if we we are not balancing our in our personality so we will make out of this ideology to hear or to hear and that's why that's why god is telling us be prepared be ready be in your own personality balance people that you have spirituality that what is spirituality is being sensitive is totally being sensitive to the other being sensitive to reality that's being spiritual it's not being afraid to be with your heart outside and and and being practical it doesn't mean now to worship money it means that god brought us to to the earth and we are here to bring the presence of god to the earth through through blessings through through through peace not through taking advantage of the world because we're going to die any day anyway no this world will be forever it's eternal we could also be part of this eternal world if we would be holy and we'll be holy we would have holy memories and then the holy members would also be treated in a holy way that you don't want to make out of this nostalgics you want to have a true memory that would wake you up to the presence and to the future also so that's that's a bit about them this is this is very beautiful and i want to to stop you for a moment just to to pray for for uh for the people that need healing and we will back to to the place that you stop and um um okay so i see here in the chat elizabeth asking to pray for uh we're gonna uh make this uh lesson this uh uh studying studying yeah study and lesson uh for the healing of linda aileen sherry duane um and all the people that need healing for the body and for their soul uh may this uh lesson this uh study will be for the healing el nader funnel i am um i want to i want to to stop for a moment just how much you still have you how much time you have i want you please please please please brother yeah i said we stopping just in time yeah so i want to do kind of uh of a shared screen to show them what we speak what we talk about the mishkan what what we have i have a couple of pictures here um uh actually i must say that right now in in the portion uh moses go up to the mount of sinai and um and god telling him suddenly give him the the the introductions yeah introductions to how to build the the house of god orders yes yeah so all right yeah yeah so i want to show you how it's how it looks and i i must say that some of the things that you're gonna see there was later later on they stayed in the temple too and so this is in the holy of the holies okay this is in the middle middle beginning yeah this is the holy of the holy this is the korvim it's called kuvim it's as as eliezer said it's two angels in english in english and english how how do you call them in english i'm so sorry yeah my parents are american i was born in israel i'm so sorry why do i okay why do i what you said no i'm i'm sorry for for not knowing how to call them in english let's let's let's say that the most important thing is to to know it's called kuvin and then we will find the translation i can find it later um okay so um they're sitting there uh connecting to a table um that okay this is the menu one second you can see um okay this is how it was how it looks all the the area in the in the desert so the oldest of holy you can see my uh where i point in the and i could see yes yes yes so the the room that that you see here this is the holy of holies so the kuvim and the table was here and all the other things that you're going to see is was there and the the koa name was entering from here to here from uh tell me if i'm if i write from the east to the west yeah from the east to the west that's what i that's what i know um so the yeah right do i rightly yes yes yes yes was in the east in the west um so this is uh uh the table of the bread there was a table for for bread these pools i'm gonna speak about pools uh soon something yeah it's uh it's the inner intellect the facebook by the way um the the the reason why it's called legend panim it's not because of that that's what i saw in the explanation of rashi it's not because of the word face it's because that they have panim like two sides uh because there was uh um um they built like um what's letter we have n like n and they have like two walls in the sides so that's why russia said it's called uh like two walls this is the menorah that you all know um okay i wanna i wanna i wanna say something about the manure yeah there you go okay i'll say something about the menorah just to understand the philosophy okay and then and then i would i would need to go okay so right so uh okay so this is something about the menorah and that would also connect to our month now okay we just now started the month of adar this is the month of happiness and um it's very important to say something about happiness and i would relate it also to what the menorah did in the world because happiness is is not a result happiness is is is is our approach and when we have the approach of happiness it's like love so and through that we we could do things in the right way okay so this is this is and you could also put the menorah it's great if you put them in ore go ahead you could put you could put sometimes in the middle because now i'm going to speak out at the bottom and also i want to share with the philosophy about the memoir if you could put it one second you know what and and then put me back okay joe or start with me okay sorry we have in our face okay also these seven seven points of light in our face right we have our okay if we look in the side it's two of our ears right and the middle is two of our eyes then then towards our our eyes then our nose we have another two um you know we have our breathing our breathing channels of the nose let's be a bit creative and then we have then we have the mouth right so if we know that what the cohen did okay when he lit the menorah okay he let we just now spoke about face right he let the light of the face of the world and this this reminds us that every one of us could light also the menorah inside of us if we light these if these channels that are in our face to light our to light our eyes is to see it's not to look at the bat okay if we see something negative for sure that we need to fix so to fix it not to stare at it yeah not to peak and not not to be peakers and it's very important that allows us to be also true positive um visioners um because because because we don't accept the negative and we don't enjoy from looking at the negative um and this is the eyes um our mouth is not to say lie okay that's the center not to say lies even sometimes if i said a detail that maybe it's not exactly true so say another sentence it's for yourself it's not for the person it's not the information because we want to trust our memory because sometimes if if we say things that are not exactly so then we always need to feel a need to always cover and what we're not sure about ourselves and and and that's why it's very important not to not to say lies so and and and if we see our that that our nose so it's the smelling that is to smell it's very it's very critical to know how to breathe deep to breathe inside deep and it means to also look at the deepness and to and to demand the deepness of the world our soul and soul enjoys only from this sense from the sense of smelling that's what they that's what the the the holy book say that that this is the only sense that the soul enjoys from is smelling it connects to the breed in hebrew the word neshama is so it's also also the same letters of neshima of breathing okay so so this is this is this is our connection with god um uh relates very much yeah now we're back yeah so actually our connection with god okay it's very much okay to be aware um to be aware and we need to also know you know when things smell good and what they don't and and and our ears is the place of knowing how to be a true student to be a student no true student a true student is to listen to a person with open heart when we listen to a person with an open heart we could also trust ourselves when we lose focus and we could ask to hear again but we could comment to what's really said and then we could be true students because we learn to know to be aware to have a true consciousness and it's not only to have more information it's it's to be part of of where we are and so that's that's the place also of aaron in hebrew ozen is the ear it's also the letters of izuna's balance okay so so this is an example of a philosophy that over here yes there is the menorah there is there is the vessel but this vessel over here it's a vessel that has um also a philosophy that that that reminds the world a philosophy that everyone could um could uh exercise in his private life but it also it it's it's a light for itself because the second this light is littened it brings a memory a true active memory to the whole world of where the glory is because if we don't light that our center so it's like taking a a light bulb from from the center of the of the room and putting it in the corner of the room and then the whole room is dark and the only things that are in the fashion are the bugs that's why we need the light in the center and this is lighting the menorah for one example you pin the fire from the center it's only it's it's not it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's a true act of memory and and it's active memory in such a way that we want to be part of the light the true fashion of the true happiness the truth the true the true movement because it's not a movement that comes from outside it's like happiness it comes from inside if i'm a happy person it means that i'm a person that puts myself aside okay because being depressed it's it's it's been heavy and and everyone could could be in a sad day but but i i'm not myself i'm i'm only i'm only a vessel be here for life's god i don't want to bother and over there i do the right work not to bother to be a true channel that the light would come through me and for that this is the work that we have this light also on our face again in our ears in our eyes and our nose and our mouth not to say lies to breathe deeply to be aware not to look at the negative or to fix the negative when we see it not to be pickers and to be true students to listen to be balanced so this is the menorah inside of our face ourselves two signs inside the the the house there was two signs to know that god is is is still with us like you know it's with us all the time but that is uh the shrine is inside the the house it was the the fire of the menorah and the second is about the kuvin those two um angels that we saw let's see it again those two angels that we saw that look into each other if they was looking to each other we know that the shrine is inside the house i want to say another two things if you have a time small things ideas like philosophy as you said yes please please share with me fast because i'm laid down waiting for me here better so first thing is that look it's very interesting that inside the uh the temple the more you get inside to the to the not to the temple to the to the mishkan to the house of god to the holiest of holy you see that it's all the vessel is like a one um one um next character uh one uh it's built only from from gold it's only a one um shape so like the the menorah it's built only from gold the kovim it's only from gold but the more you go outside um from the holy you see that it's built from trees that um from trees that uh the gold is only around them like you can see here in the table with the pools you can see that the the pools is a gold that inside the the pools it's from tree so i just i was just thinking about it that that it's very interesting and then of course the tent and everything is from different kind of of of things so it's very interesting to see that inside the the the holiest of holi it's own built from one uh uh in one shape like the menorah only from gold and the more you go out it's uh there is different [Music] different shapes in the different um yes it is materials materials okay and the second thing that i want to say that it's it's it's very interesting that there is a very interesting uh explanation that the menorah is the is is is not the holiest thing that we have that i just read kind of explanation it's not the holiest thing and the kavim is like the opposite of what i said right now because it's built only from one shape it's have no inside and outside if you see these pools you say okay it's have inside and outside like ourself we have our body and we have our neshama we have our soul but the more you go inside you see this there is no inside and outside to the to the vessels so um why i understood that it's very uh it's it's a it's a way of of thinking that the more we are going deeper uh with our study with our belief with our uh with the things that we that we wanna uh uh uh with the with the believing with our believed god is the more that we need to take our things to the simple things in our life to take our beliefs to the simple things in our life like the menorah it's something that each one of them can be i'm so sorry brother here let me let me let me tell you shabbat shalom come on brother love you brother thank you so much so uh the more we are getting uh up uh the more we are getting deeper with our belief is the more we need to take uh things from our belief uh to the simple things in our life like what i wanted to say is that we can take each one of us can build the menorah actually there is people right now that build a manoa uh to the temple they are waiting the messiah to come and to and to take the menorah and to put it in the temple so it's possible to be to build a menorah uh so why to take these vessels as eleazar said and to make it holy what is this why why we need to do it so the reason is that the more we are as a believer believing what we are doing is the more we need to be really sharp in our simple life and the more we're getting deeper to the to the uh uh inside the the temple inside the the house of god is the more the vessels is only from one one uh um building of in one shape in one uh uh only from gold not with trees not with uh any things else only with gold uh and it's kind of a lesson for for for me i think to understand that the more you are going uh uh in in your life as a believer the more you're going deeper is the more that you need to take your simple things in now in your life and to put god inside of it uh like i'm trying to do with my youtube channel like what i'm trying to do with my music uh like whatever i try to do in those days and i'm sure that you are uh feeling like like this too because i know the messages that you see sending me so for me it was like a kind of of of of a message that i really love one simple fact from from the portion uh there is a story in the jewish explanation of the of the torah in this portion that said that uh the talking about what is a prayer uh so it's wroten that when moses tried to build the menorah um when moses built the manoa he he he couldn't make it because he needed to build it as i said only from gold he couldn't uh connect between things he needed to do it in one one time so he didn't succeed so what he did he just prayed really hard and dropped it to the to the fire and then god just made the manure so it's a great lesson for us you know sometimes in our life we're saying telling to ourselves look this is me i can't do this and this and this this is me i will never sing here and here here i will never know all the talk i will never succeed in this test i will never i will never never never know but what we can learn from moses that he wasn't a menorah builder he didn't know how to do it so we just pray to god and god gave him the skills to do it and this is amazing amazing amazing lesson for all of us we need to remember that yeah there is the the skills and the things that we we we feel that we have at the things and we feel that we are not so good but we need to remember that anything that we want and the word want that's on enable what's on is the most important thing this is the the beginning of the present that we get is what we want in hebrew we say razon movie is is bring us is what we want shepherd is the present and it's beginning with the razor with what we want if i want to build a menorah as moses and he pray for it he got it and if you want you really want to do change in your to change something in your life you want to be better for your wife for your husband for your uh girlfriend for you want something you want to to wake up every morning very early and to go to pray and you feel that you don't succeed it's very hard for you you need to work on what you want and not on the present and to say why i don't get this i can't wake up in the morning it's very hard for me uh to be in time on work no you don't need to work to work on the present because the present is from god you need to work on what you want and to ask yourself why you really don't want it and from this story of moses he couldn't build by himself the menorah we learn we it's so beautiful to understand that we can get whatever we we we need and whatever we want but we need to ask for it really to ask for it and to really want it and with all your body and with all your soul to believe that this is good for me and i can't do it and there is nothing nothing in this world that it's impossible nothing i'm telling you there is nothing that that you can't do that i can do it's only about what we want to do and there is like a amazing stories sorry about the examples but from the holocaust i just heard like a very um crazy story about people that needed to to to run from the nazis so they had like a small hole in the wall and they ran from from the house from the small hole in the wall and then when they made kind of a research later years later and they saw the the the hole in the wall they couldn't believe that they succeeded to to enter through this hall and a lot of research made by how they did it it's it's a miracle how can it be that someone that with my size in my size can escape from this kind of hole it's not possible this is the word this is the word that i want to teach you today and to talk with you today about our of what we want this is the most important thing as believers because this braves holiest people that escape from the nazis and entered through these small halls and escaped and it physically it wasn't it was impossible they it's happened because they asked with all their body and with all their souls from god to help them to escape to save their life and it just happened it's a great lesson for all of us um [Music] i think that's it for today so we we talked about the the house of god about moses uh standing in the the mount of sinai getting the orders how to build the house of god and try to starting to work on it and next week we will speak about uh the rest of the the introductions and the and uh there is a very interesting
