you're listening to the sixteenth
edition of the baton podcast and we're
going to pick up where we left off we
were speaking about the story of EAC
fats addict and the moderator southern
ones he says here at the end of the
fourth chapter of dark a be talking
about alienation modulus and McCoy on my
Segway Mahut baton we mentioned this
last time is very important and I
actually mentioned it recently in a
partial podcast that yoseef italic was
on a very exalted level of be talking
that being the case luckily in raga
casita wish more it seems like a
punishment it seems like Yosef italic he
didn't have be talkin he trusted on a
person instead of the trusting in a
cottage beaucoup so therefore the result
was that he was punished with two more
years says the author in a verdict
nothing could be further from the truth
by the kalahari magical cycle - for who
did not want him to lose his great level
of bît-yakin
blue low how a master guy said I know
she'll show Nevada hate if not for the
fact that he would have indeed had two
more years to sit in jail because of his
sin you talk and show you tell you
laughter SaLuSa Illinois you could have
made a mistake to think that his be
talkin indeed helped him I'm sorry not
his beat on his status helped him right
that's a big danger the author of
navarre dick feels that the the danger
of falling into the belief that my atlas
is what's accomplishing things for me
and it's not a sham that danger is so
great stay far far away from Estados at
all but even we who are involved in your
status right where me we may not be
holding like we are not holding on this
very very high level of be talking with
a dashed atlas so we have to watch out
we have to be careful any time we do a
thoughtless there's a great danger we
could fall into the fact you can fall
into believing in our mind something
which is not a fact that this is what's
accomplishing it for us and it's not so
at all Iraq Baca saucer shell came
Jakarta negotiates any basis firm he
could think that it was the request that
he made of the Serra mask him that he
should remember him that's what got him
out I mean Nick Malloy leader McConnell
Abba and he would set a new precedent
for himself that from now on should
royalist all the odds may be out on
where the FINA schemes a heartening that
is appropriate it's in fact not only is
it appropriate you see it worked
so obviously the schmuck who wants me to
do if that was he wants me to put an
effort
this is what gets me what I need okay
Amelia Blair minimalize a shaman wanted
us safe to be on a very very high level
of be talkin year it's a balk Uche sure
gear ablution sorry chalet also shadows
fear the cloth I needed to see
experientially that not only didn't it
help him at all it didn't do anything
for him at all well you gonna show a
little about you like the card said I'm
a vodka shot erotic I say not only they
did not help him get out of jail it made
it even less likely that he would get
out of jail it made it take another two
years we'll have affability a Cebu and
I'd like to point out that how would he
know he's supposed to get out now it was
no it was very clear to Yosef he saw
that this guy came in and was clear that
he was his ticket out this guy the SAR
machine was his ticket out of the jail
he was he saw power every single day the
only one who could grant him the the
freedom that he wished could only be
power so this was his ticket out and
indeed that's how it was in the end so
he knew that this was this must be the
time but then he languished in jail for
another two years this was so it would
be clear to him that he made a mistake
we'll have affability I see Bonita
merely the Moose coalition are shorter
how human about soullow he needed to
realize that it was the opposite being
involved in that very high status that
he thought would help him
it only made it farther made his
salvation farther away by the rabble
McCarthy was giving me the shot him I
did but my didn't line right so he could
have made a mistake to believe that
indeed it it would have helped him
so I Shem therefore hurry let me know
how your question are they smoked arm
washed out of a scart Annie says the
outer has a side which is don't think
about tomorrow don't worry about
tomorrow don't be so concerned stop
trying to make sure that tomorrow you're
gonna be okay
are you okay today because well who's
giving you what you need today that's
all you need to know you don't need to
worry about tomorrow to the extent that
you focus on your connection to a
college bar who when you recognize that
he's providing me today you will get
what you need tomorrow you don't need to
think about you know do you worry about
you don't have to push dad listen you
have to put in so much efforts
how much doubt of it okay he wouldn't
have had to put in so much effort why
you hate see me on ebay so sue me would
have come out
immediately from jail if he hadn't made
that extra statement to the saaremaa him
like anata it wasn't Sonia Kashuk
harshly this Maharaja Machado he put in
the efforts now mid nays any ties to
Lucia shun him for this reason it was
added on an extra two years and I'd like
to mention something a few things here
number one is I read recently in a safer
I don't really want to mention which one
but it was a safer Berbatov Unamuno he
mentioned that a person needs to put in
all efforts and leave the results a sham
and that there is such a cheetah it's
important to know that there is such an
opinion but that is not necessarily the
main opinion even if I wish Olive
obvious who says that we need to put in
efforts doesn't say you have to put in
all efforts that you possibly can maybe
reasonable efforts but there's always a
danger in that thinking of all I have to
do every effort and then leave the
results - for who does not need me to do
every effort action doesn't need me to
do any effort that's the honest truth
now shun can give me what I need without
you can just drop a million dollars on
if he wants to and he's willing to do
that if I have the proper beat on him
all right there is such a thing and it's
important to know that I do not need to
do every effort I do not even need even
need to do any effort sometimes
sometimes I could literally it's been my
experience out of nowhere just for who
will send me a job I didn't try to get
the job I didn't I wasn't making any
efforts to obtain that job it just comes
so there is such a thing
you do not need to do every effort
that's for sure I don't believe that
that's true and I don't believe
personally that it's helpful any time
that I put in every effort because
trouble has shown me that
yo chill back step back chill out you
don't have to do so much this is not
your job and then you get it's very hard
to put in every effort and then not not
have your you know your knuckles white
trying to hold on to the results it's
it's it's not the altar holds it that's
a mistake don't go that way
don't put in every effort don't put in
any effort don't do if studless have you
talking uncle - Miroku is a metallic was
meant to not to anything he was meant to
stand by him wait British was a sham his
yacht Savile Row as issue as a sham
stand by and watch the puck
talking about its you Smith's rhyme
stand by and watch a sham will save you
it's important to know that
Rosella occur with their habit often and
and the alter said that this is a main
point when it comes to their capital now
I read this in the parsha podcast but I
want to read it again it's so important
sure the mother who should a lot
Sartoris Maher person is must it's a
must
don't worry about tomorrow you don't
give a Koosh see but because when a
person is worried and he's looking what
if status can I do but actually a
vehicle ID off seed first of all it's
not going to first of all he's not going
to benefit from it he's going to lose
out from it and now I just want to say
something again from my experiences
which I believe I've mentioned but
sometimes I have found that if I do a
minimal effort but a wholehearted effort
minimal effort but wholehearted what I
accomplish with that is a show Kodesh
borhu that I'm not being lazy now that's
a completely different thing than
putting in every effort to try to get
what I want
try to get my needs met to try to get
partner so that's different then I'm
doing something which I know is not
enough I'm doing it completely just to
prove to myself to my heart which which
is attached or Kodesh borhu to myself
perhaps we could even say with a capital
S the piece of me that's good work who's
inside of me to prove to myself that I'm
not just being lazy that's a different
thing then putting in every effort to
try to get what I want that's not what
when the focus is I'm just doing it
because I could just work who wants me
to show I'm not lazy that's a different
story
okay keep a glassy board I can catch
some of Lukasz when I'm chasing after
the Estados I'm chasing after the thing
that I think is going to be the cause
for me to get what I want to get what I
need what happens is it actually pushes
away the result that I want as we saw by
Asaph kikaha direction you read the
paparazzi by Siva Barajas no manner
there's a general principle that when I
run after something
the thing that I'm running after runs
away from me alright if let's say I want
my child to be at the Shabbos table I
want my child to come and sing with me
to sing at the Shabbos table the more
that I try to get that the more I chase
after it
I I'm pushing the person away doesn't
mean that I can't express that I would
like that but I need to be careful how I
do it
need to be done to be small but Kyra
Beeman I pulled in with the stronger
hand I have to show my love I have to
show my my understanding but it's also
true when it comes dish status if I put
too much effort into Atlas it pushes
away the results that I want
I've you had this experience myself many
times I came before about grows a grudge
says this Kikkoman column a Kazakh
a lager do lago de barajas he manages
that we find there's a concept that if
you run after greatness you run after
Fame you run after after covered honor
it runs a Barajas women are good little
ruffles me man who runs away from you
but called Baretta like a doula go to
Omaha there's a probe if you run away
from grayness it runs after you came to
call I mean dice so to this with all of
the measures all matters you couldn't
you know be tough and specifically says
the garage true in regards to be talking
the more I run after certain stat listen
the more I will not get what I want it's
counterintuitive but it's true commotion
you say mayor I was in um I've actually
there hush limits for be toughen this is
something that experience proves to
those people who are trying to behold
trying to be to rise up in their
spirituality trying to have it often in
you know in posthumous production with
the MS and and here I'd like to
interject two points we'll see if we
have enough time for both of them but
the first point is something I had a
discussion on Thursday with someone who
I mentioned a few times in the podcast
more hi Dimond rabbi mordechai Dimond
who is of course my Russia she was about
we talked on the door the Bob we talk on
of our generation and I discuss with him
what what is it like how does he
approach me talk him what is his
understanding I be talk on what's the
how does it work for him why is it work
for him and he said to me that the idea
is what is be tough and be toughen is
not just oh I get what I want from God
it's not like this trick not like this
you know I had trusting God and then I
get what I want from God that's not it
be talking is something which is an
expression
of avoid assertion it's an expression of
my service of Hashem of my relationship
with Hashem what does that mean it means
that be talkin my trust in God
is an outcropping of my relationship
with Hashem if I love Hashem I have a
relationship with Hashem Hashem is my
loving father I'm always trying to and I
recognize that everything that happens
in my life is from him whether it's good
things or bad things okay if if now I
say talk oh there's more oh cool
Hashem I really need this thing I want
to feel close to you I want to feel like
you are the God who provides for me I
want to feel like you are the one who's
in my life and I really need this
particular thing whatever it might be I
want my child to have success in his
learning Torah I want my daughter to
feel happy with the school at Cheesie
and I want my kids to be joyous and and
and and feel good and have good
experiences in their lives that's to be
talking to be definite about me and I
could have all who me and I could wish
for who so then that's what be talking
is that goes wrong can't say no why
can't he say no because he's our Father
he wants to help us he wants to give us
what what we want not because well
because we wanted and we're playing a
trick on God and we're getting what we
want no it's because this has to do with
our relationship if she wants to give us
a kiss if I asked for a kiss as for a
hug for Michael there's more cool and I
have a relationship with him I love him
he loves me so then it's all part of my
letters of Shem it's all part of my
service of God and and this is something
I heard recently also on a sheer former
brog which I highly recommend there's a
few Scheuermann be talking he's a
tremendous Bobby talking himself you can
you can hear his amazing stories what he
said what are the ways what are the ways
to work on me talking has a person get
into be talkin that it really works for
him it's by constantly being aware
because of shebar who constantly
repeating sukham Marsha Sheba says this
idea as well and I saw what else were
brought down hashem Sivakasi manu Misgav
learn allah here Casella hashem see vaca
is a shred humble task but blessed is
the one who trusts in you I shall my
mouth any enemy information is going to
save us in the data we call out for him
repeating sukham but see that you might
relate to whatever it is boarhog i
received a push em there's so many
pursue him there's a group of fifteen so
to me says at the end of tsuki December
before mismo decider
there's a whole bunch of them there all
of them express our faith in God our
trust in him and he's going to help is
he's gonna he's going to give us what we
need so be talkin it's this sense it's
this feeling that we have a real
relationship with Akhilesh barkuloo and
then he will provide what we need
because we have that relationship with
him that's that's one point and the
second point I'd like to add is
something that's very important to see
how much time we have here the second
point is something on my Sheba spoke
about in this past weeks parsha which
was not what I read what I read in my
partial podcast was a few years ago but
he said something this year he sends out
a partial sheet every week he talks
about the fact that there's a concept of
of strengthening our be taller but often
goes in waves he brings from the from
the back of Evan Schlemmer that grew up
from the student of the Guru of chuan
malson writes that when it comes to be
talking we find this to be true in
regards even in avium the greatest study
came there were times what they had she
wanna be talking there were times where
their baton was so strong it couldn't be
broken and they accomplished awesome
things with their be talking they were
able to get whatever they needed times
on a person that feels we can there be
talking she wanna V that's the classic
example he was afraid of shuttle why was
he afraid where was his be talkin
because he didn't really want to go to
annoy interval hemella so therefore we
felt he felt the weakness in his be
talking whenever we felt that his shawls
gonna know about he's gonna find out so
we find that there's such a thing that
are but be Tahara muna can waver can go
up and down and so it's something that
it has to do with our relationship with
the Kurdish world with our relationship
with Hashem sometimes we feel it from
the who feel his love sometimes we feel
connected to him I had a story just this
past week on Wednesday night or Tuesday
night where I went somewhere and I
needed a certain thing and the the
person who is behind the cash register
wasn't sure how to do something for me
and I he would need to call his boss and
he said his boss wasn't picking over the
phone I said I have been talking and I
felt it really strong I just had a place
that I often go to and he did something
we've done immediately I have been
talking that he's gonna pick up that
phone and you did pick up the phone and
he was able to brush and get me what I
needed but it's something where
sometimes you feel it sometimes you
really you just feel it inside of you
you have that beat up and sometimes you
don't and it's that way and all of our
relationships whether it's
it's with our children whatever it is
but it's something that we need to
strengthen in ourselves
avril lavigne oh that's where mr. Shiva
points out it says that the schember
made him a promise album album but he
believed him
what does mean he believed it means that
he felt it he worked on himself so he
should feel the coach broke loose
promised would come true to him and also
and are we talking it's something that
we need to strengthen because we can be
weakened as we see with the ice episodic
us owner on an exalted level and yet you
fell at this point so we need to know
it's something that we need to watch out
for like I mentioned in the partial
podcasts we need to be careful not not
to be pulled down in every talk and it's
an emotional state is an emotional state
sometimes we have and sometimes we don't
if we don't have it at this moment we
need to strengthen ourselves in it and
we need to recognize that there are
things that take away from are we talkin
take away from our relationship with our
College problem from our avoidance of
shame from our feeling of connection
that goes wrong who and we need to watch
out from those things because those are
poison it takes away from our baton to
be continued thank you so much for
listening
