Body and Soul Retreat 2018 Charlie Harary Your Neshama is on Fire

I want to begin first and foremost by thanking the gross family for the YouTube family new hobbies inspires staff anyone that needs a reality these are a few moments that we don't really have all year so we got to cherish them especially in light of what we just found out that took place to our brothers and sisters across this country you know we spoke a little bit about the transition from the world I stood up here just what it seemed like a year ago but as those 25 hours ago we spoke about the schema about life and how spirituality is right in front of us we need to see it and it's hard to see it when you go through your life it's hard to see it when you're running you do you do you do you do you do and it gets to you my family my accomplishments my money me me me greatest block to our awesomeness is me but Chavez comes in and God says there's more than me we've got a little deeper so you come in and there's an amazing thing because when you walk into Shabbos we light candles and for many of us that were here especially for this side of the room went outside everyone will ever only candles and the candles that you lit were individual you can light a hundred candles if you have a hundred kids but that's a whole other story you need a lot more than candles here are two tips for each kid you light a separate candle you know why because fire is the most spiritual property we have in this world it's anti-gravity literally almost looks like it's trying to reach back to heaven when you want to remember someone who passes away what do you do you light up the concept of fire feels like it doesn't belong in this world if it wasn't attached to a wake it wouldn't stay just like our soul it wasn't attached to a body it wouldn't stay so God says you're coming into the most spiritual day here's what you're gonna do you're gonna actually light the property that is the most spiritual and we come in each and every Shabbos and you take each candle for each person and you like that because what you're trying to say is that now we're about to enter into spirituality but here's what happens you see when you tap into spirituality what you realize is that me and you are not very different when I move past we and go to we when I understand what unity is I realize that the person next to me is just like me when I'm after she's after you're really just my brother the truth is this unity is so much better than me being alone when you really exist in spirituality you realize that we feel so much better than me if you gue shot if you do shop as properly you know what happens you take all the separate candles and you know what it makes abdullah candle you see a Chaba scandal is a separate wick and a half Dalek candle needs to be multiple wigs the how delicate needs to have a lot of wigs because the chef is telling us if you did this right you're all going to be one flame you don't so good about the Abdullah candle that the light is so much greater than any one Shabbos candle because that's Shabbos Shabbos is our ability to go from my one little wick to a massive of elegant that was this Shabbos but that's every jealous that's who we are and that's who were meant to be and so as we let Chavez go this time with this way and this candle hopefully we'll never forget that the true expression of myself is when I'm together with you and every week afterwards no matter what I keep and how I keep it we'll never forget that when I'm close to my family and my people only when I am connected to my family and people does my own flame burn bright
