so rather have to mentioned the famous
Ramez where is the month of Elul alluded
to in the 10 ask Annie Lee Dodie Dodie
Lee it's the month I am for my beloved
and my beloved is for me I'm for god and
goddess for me that literally if we do
our part to come closer attack on this
Rahu the rebounder some will respond in
kind
but here's the million dollar question
since when do we call God Dodie Dodie
how about barakaatuh Hashem don't we
call God your cave of K 1 we say I need
Laird can you both kill viewed kpop Kiwi
I need little Kimble a little little Kim
Lee I need a shot guy Bashar Kylie I
need lip spa coat Aniela Cara Homer when
in Hamish is God ever called Dodie
anybody know how many times and
voracious God is called Dodie zero and
how many times in Shimoda is God called
od0 and how many times by agra none and
how many comes about mid bars old and
hammered on the Varden and yahushua
shoved him shmoo hell muwah him yaaaa
yummy huh yes girl TRAI sir he of michl
a Tehillim zero zero zero zero there's
only one place God has ever called Dodie
and she Reshiram why in the world in the
months of hell all the month were trying
to get closer to God the month were
trying to do to vana we don't say the
word Dodie the whole Rosh Hashana why in
the world when it comes to the months of
L o do we invoke anima Dodie Dodie
leeches and he lost shamash Emily very
important question
Shuba what's Chuba people you know as
the high holidays are approaching people
get nervous so what do they do they open
up their checkbooks and they give to
that guy
beautiful giving to that guy has nothing
to do a tuba without Shuba the person
didn't have a rock and they give to that
car nothing happens to that Iran
chuva is
very clear elastic process it has three
or four ingredients
number one Kurata regret number two as
divagate stopped sinning number three
Kabbalah did except upon yourself not to
do it again and number four veto a
confession writing checks it's wonderful
there's nothing to achieve uh there's no
concept that if you do good deeds it
wipes away are they wrote to wipe away
in a variety of very specific elastic
process regret stop and confession very
easy as long as you could stop question
if a person does chew on does it work
does it get rid of that Vera of course
it does that's our faith that's part of
an RM una can a Gentile do teshuva in
other words it for Gentiles sins and now
as a looming punishment can a Gentile do
too about what would you say good those
are the two choices no and yes excellent
we've narrowed it down basically to two
choices either no or yes we're getting
close okay says the Midrash and I'm not
telling you my opinion if you look on
your sheets at number four I'll read to
you there's a contradiction one-plus
look it says he saw Hashem panov Alessa
God will show favor to you
and there's another plastic that says I
shall Lois off on him God will not show
you favor since the Gemara how do you
reconcile that well God show you favor
will God not show you favor says the
medrash Oh set Suva no sale opening if
you do Chava God will show you favor and
if you don't do Chuba God will not show
you favorites as simple as that when
your personal chuva God favors them and
if they don't do chuhwa God will not
favor them says the mattress yo colic oh
I would think anyone could do chuhwa
Talmud Lola ISA Hashem Panov what's the
next word hey les ah you could do Tula
the world Oh mommy I come a Gentile
cannot do children did not mama take my
opinion when I could take a vote here
it's not up to us
I'm telling you the opinion of the Metis
a Gentile cannot see you said what do
you mean safer Jana and invade that
wasn't you wrong
that was they could defer punishment but
they cannot erase the Avera as if it was
never performed
chuva is an illogical process it doesn't
make any sense
imagine someone stands in front of the
judge and they committed a crime and the
judge takes his gallery bangs down
guilty smile everyone guilty yeah and
the person says judge it's nice that I'm
guilty but I'm doing chuhwa I'll never
steal again from the government and I'm
confessing my sin and I really feel bad
about it I promise I'll never do it
again
so the judge will say you better believe
you'll never do again behind bars you'll
never do it again
you can't do too well in this world
there is no realm in life there's no
area in life where you could repent and
then it's like you never did it but God
gave a special gift to the Jewish people
where we could have we could press the
delete button and we can make it as if
we never sent
but that gift was not given to the
Gentiles and the question is why not
does the process work or does a process
not work is it an effective system or is
a not effective system can regret and
confession remove a sin or not
why would chew vow only work for a Jew
and not work for a Gentile you know we
have to ask ourselves the following
questions anybody know which parsha of
the Torah do we read almost every year
at the beginning of Hodesh hello this
parsha is always at the beginning of
ello either a day before or on Rosh
Chodesh ello or slightly into it there's
anybody that what is the first parish ah
as we enter the month of L o partial a
partial a and thus logic others teacher
a secret that the partial that we read
during the week is connected to that
time of the year even though you look in
the Gemara they're only a few partial
that have to be read at certain
intervals and the other party all day
they fall out when they fall out
nevertheless I'll peek Kabbalah nothing
great in this world happens
coincidentally if we read a parsha at a
certain time there is a specific
connection to that time of the year what
is the connection between Parishad ray
and the beginning of the chuga process
so here's the secret
if you look on your sheet at number five
one of the greats if REM written on the
topic of chuhwa is a safer beit elohim
base all again of the map in motion met
Ronnie who's a contemporary of the Beth
Yosef he writes it gar Hakuba Leah
Israel the primary mechanism of chuhwa
only works for a Jew the Romani pan or a
Menachem Azaria pano the great Italian
Cabalists says chuva was only given to
the Jewish people why why would that be
he says morality da roca acept of it as
a line the very important idea you go in
front of the king and you say king you
have a long nose you're an ugly man King
so the King just happened to be learning
moose are and in moose hour he learned
that if somebody insults you you should
swallow it and you shouldn't say a word
and you should be most of them is the
king allowed to be most else someone who
insults him he's not allowed to the
Gemara condition says Mela Seamus all
alcohol dough in Coloma foam a king is
not authorized to overlook his insult he
could try to be exotic if you wanna be a
Tzadik if someone hurts the King if
someone insults the king
if someone doesn't show the king honor
the king must kill them mo read with
mouths hood there is no room for
leniency there's no room for looking the
other way but what if your kid comes
home and your kid is sitting in your
chair
so now what uh-huh keyboard of a me take
out a club with nails on it more into
manhood yeah no I'll share my soul I'll
keyboard or chroma who a father a tanto
is the latter overlook his insult says
Ikeda there's a difference between the
relationship that God has with the
Jewish people and the relationship that
God has with the Gentiles you ever hear
maybe hear on the radio after all we're
all the children are the Lord you ever
hear that expression all mankind we're
all the children of the Lord it's a
bunch of rubbish it's not true we're not
we're not all the children Lord the
Gentiles are created in the image of God
they deserve respect honor and dignity
but they are not the children of God
they are B'Tselem elohim paviva domjan
robert Selim man is beloved because he
was created in the image of God Cathy
Vinnie Israel the Jewish people are more
beloved SHINee crew bonny moi maqam Shan
Emma Bonnie ma tan wash Emma location
you are the children of the Lord the
Gentiles are not the children of the
Lord but that's racist and bias and
Prejudice no it's not that's what God
told us I have a question
imagine you're walking down the street
and you tell your child you're my child
and a young man from a different race
over here as it says that's racist
that's prejudiced I'm also your child a
kid your nice guy you ain't my child I
know for sure we could check the DNA I
ain't your cheer you know you're not my
son not racist we are this we have the
spiritual DNA of the rebuttal I love the
soul of the Jew is fundamentally related
and created closer to the image of God
than any other human being
the kuzuri says the same way there's a
difference between
a plant in Iraq and an animal and a
plant and a human and an animal there's
a greater difference between a Jew and a
human being
Hamas the openko - well between holiness
and profane they know Laquisha between
light and darkness being Israel on them
if you don't believe that there's a
fundamental there's between a year and a
good it's one of the fundamental
principles of Judaism God is our Father
and if we do in Avira and we do - ah God
said I'm your Tata I could be Mosul you
I could overlook it of shamash al al
called aqua domicile God is not the
father of the nations of the world he's
their king he therefore is not licensed
and able to overlook his indignity
therefore if I were to ask you what is
the mechanism of tomate what is the
engine of Juba what is the way with
which to buy operates through the
principle of Barnum attend lashem elloe
kaifi
you are the children of the Lord without
that principle Shevat cannot work cannot
be effective cannot operate
therefore the first power shall we read
and Hoda shall all is bunim item lashem
a location par shots from a we need to
learn the mechanism and the engine of
how chuva operates it operates through
the process of we are the children of
our colors parcel but let's take this a
little further do we have any Ashkenazim
here tonight we have a few ok cane year
boo asking Azam stardom this far then
when they say we do a sham new but God
knew they have a song how do they say it
Ashkenazi and have this tune it's like
they're singing like they're walking
their kid down to the Kaaba
oh no oh boy oh god no
girl no the bar new don't know
imagine a guy comes into the show and he
says I robbed a nice girl that I
committed adultery yeah that's what I
scan doesn't do they're singing about
their sins like I don't know they won
the lottery what in the world are these
Ashkenazim doing that's a general
question but now we're asking
specifically on the Eevee doing right
and you say no that's not how you're
supposed to do it you're supposed to do
it
oh no that's not how you're supposed to
do it look in the acronym it's supposed
to be a happy tune happy tune why we
have a costume the night of Rosh
Hashanah we eat something called Maron
or carrots and we say he trots on
anybody know what you hear about Sean we
say you're out summer finance my chef
Alan cannibal cannibal say no say year
boo there's a Julio Tina that we should
have a lot of merits so here's a guy
he's laying back in his chair he's
popping carrots into his mouth he's
saying god oh my II I should do a lot of
mitzvoth this year and God's saying get
off your chair you want to do mitts vote
take a dig Amara give something that guy
you're praying to me that you should do
a lot of missile you want doom it's all
doom it's or do you want from my life
you think by you eating carrots you're
gonna be eat doing more Mitzvah this
year the one thing you can't pray to God
is God gives me a lot of mitzvahs God
could give you money can't give you
mince food you got to do them yourself
what's just feel I share your booze is
who you're Tina
you ever hear an expression the Gemara
Brock Holt tops off Obama days the
Macomb chappal a jihad on dim in
tsadikim Cameron you column la mode
where ballet to burst and the perfectly
righteous will never stand wait wait a
second so let's talk about the god
aerobic I'm Kenny f ski right he's been
sitting in Bnei Brak his whole life
every year he learns call-out to
: he doesn't know what an app here eyes
and you have a guy for 50 years he ate
McDonald's every single night and then
he did chuhwa so he is greater than the
Goa'uld are they Malcolm Shabazz hmm
they mean something homo tacit happy
what could the bow chuva do that it's
sad that gum or can't do in what way is
about sugar greater than its addict gum
or so here's a secret premium Chuba what
kind of credit card you have personal
question right some people have a plain
simple credit card I have a simple
credit card I don't have the three
seconds it takes to fill out the thing
to get a silver gold platinum but it's
probably worthwhile right cuz if you
have platinum then you get frequent
flyer miles and you get points and you
could go fly all over the world and stay
in whatever will tell it's always better
to have premium if you had a choice when
you're flying on a plane to sit coat or
a premium premium you know when you get
on to the premium you come onto the
plane you're dehydrated and they hand
you the hot towel and you wipe your face
with it you feel like a million bucks
it's always better if you could have
premium there are two kinds of Chivo
there are two kinds of Chuba the Gemara
says in a sac the human this is the key
to understanding how we should approach
ello if you look on your sheet at number
eleven race lock is now nobody knew how
to do chuhwa better than race Lankesh
rachellocke ish himself was a bandit a
robber a gangster rich sluggish says two
statements statement number one chuhwa
is so great that if you do in a very
intentionally it's downgraded to
unintentional ssin mr.xu vias royale
antosha no okikuta baboon esse do to
chuva for your sin because you stop
in your accidental sin sukumara asks it
says I've owned and then it says cash
loan Salta
is it an intentional sin or is it a slip
says a kymaro if you do Chava and you
sinned intentionally it's downgraded to
unintentional which means like this I'll
give you a Michele a guy gets a ticket
yeah
guy gets a ticket he has a fine and he
has points and then you know he gets the
attorney the attorney gets the points
often he pays the fine that's analogous
to what sugar could do true value start
off with an intentional sin and then you
do Tuva and then it its downgraded yeah
then it's downgraded on the other hand
rich Locker sense shuva is so great that
the Ave wrote turn into MIT's fault get
dole out Shiva says they don't know
Nasus locus we owed that the Aveiro
turned intimates vote says reish lakish
this is the key ready can may I have a
can mera depends how you do Chu man
whether you do too bad out of love or
you do true out of fear if you do too
bad out of fear you're afraid that if I
don't do chuhwa I'm not gonna make money
this year I'm not gonna be hosting this
year I'm not gonna have shell on buying
it this year then you're a Veyron is
downgraded you want a free car however
if you do too bad of love if you do too
bad of love your ave rah is transformed
into a mitzvah so incredibly does
anybody know the Gemara says I'm Rosh
Hashanah how many sets of takeo do they
blow twice the kyoto mod takeo team you
chef
we blow standing we blow sitting first
we blow before this other Shawn has Ray
and we blow during the Shawn s right why
do we blow twice says the Gemara kadai
our business has a ton in order to
confound and confuse and mix up the Saab
done so rational what does that mean mix
up the tsaatan how do you mix up this
dan says Rashi that when the sat down
here's that not only do we blow the show
for once but we blow twice says Rashi
the Sutton sees that we love doing mitts
vote he silences his mouth he closes his
mouth
he doesn't accuse he doesn't mention to
God any of our sins why would that be
because we love mitts vote the Sutton
doesn't mention our sins just the
opposite if we love mitzvoth the Sutton
should work overtime you should work
harder says rabbi akiva agar one of the
greatest minds of all the latter sages
are the last 300 400 years says Rabi
Akiva ager the Sutton has one job to
read to God our sins said God he woke up
in the morning he went to shul he was
looking at his phone during the davines
the tsaatan says God
that's not babbling he can't get reward
for that get a man he spoke by Cozart a
shots you know the cafe Khayyam says the
copper Heim says if you're gonna talk by
dabbing better not to come
you'll get more reward if you stay in
bed so Sutton is reading to God sin
after sin look god he went to business
he went to work and he's cheating he's
stealing money also Sutton is reading to
God
the person's ledger and he's telling God
all of the person's out he wrote all of
a sudden the Sultan hears from heaven
two sets of shofar blasts so he keeps
his mouth closed why does he keep his
mouth closed
why doesn't he continued to read to God
all of the sins that a person committed
ah says Rebekah Vega if the Sutton
things that were serving God out of love
then maybe we're doing juve out of love
and if we do chuhwa out of love then
every of a rod that he reads to God is
gonna be transformed into a mitzvah
so there's something says let me get out
here because every other round that I
read to God I'm giving them points I'm
giving them credit giving them star so
the Sutton is afraid to tell God about
our sins because if it did you does
chuva me I have uh the sins turn into
vote kasam sofa rights that if a Jew eat
a cheeseburger and he did chuva it's
transformed into the mitzvah of eating
the carbon Pesa that's a mitzvah rope
climb can I have ski never performed
rock I'm kin EF ski never ate the
Contessa
cuz he never ate a cheeseburger but if
you now don't try this at home but if a
person didn't have a rod let's say they
didn't know they thought it's okay to
talk like a sorta shots they didn't know
the chef/owner of said it's the worst of
Iran the Tehran and now they realize you
know how to talk when determining and
they do chuhwa God will transform that
are they run into us a hook that even
real kind can you have ski doesn't have
been my calm Chapelle eat you found him
sadly kim kiman remaining home landlord
because the SATA come or never did that
are they rob to transform to mitzvah you
see it's a dictum or his ability to do
myths phone eliminated you can only do
248 mitts vote but for somebody who did
have a road and then could transform
them into mitts vote the possibilities
are endless
every type of a lira can be transformed
into a mitzvah that it's a dick or more
never did be my comb ship ballet she
found em it's i think my mom oh god he
rots on my finanza shake your boov who
your Tina give me a lot of the cotton
how give me the merit to the chuva out
of love I do chew the out of love then
all my Ave roads will not only be wiped
away
they will accrue to my merit I'll have
so many mitts volt notes a takamore will
have as many men so tell me please God
this hello when I do chuhwa I don't want
to just do to Bob because I'm afraid you
know what the doctors gonna say I my
checkup
I'm not just going to do chuva cuz I
want to have nice hots for my children
God this year I'm gonna do
- ah because I love you and if I do -
riot of love all the other roads turn
into mitts vote haha sham no bargain oh
god I see we're cashing in every ave rah
we sing to God it's the greatest thing
we could do we're so happy all the other
roads we do this here a few did Siobhan
now you can't intentionally somebody who
says I'm gonna sin and do true Val God
will not allow them to do true uh but we
don't have to worry about that we have
enough sins without trying to do them
and if we do do chuhwa and we do the
proper Jovan may I have other reason
that the Pharisees my rights the reason
we sing in the video is because we're
trying to do premium Juba not you know
not economy to economy Juba is just
gonna get off the points we're trying to
do premium chupa chupa my Ahava Shivani
hava every Aveiro we did will be
transformed and elevated to mitzvah I'm
gonna tell you a frightening tomorrow
and I'm not here to frighten you but I
can't withhold the truth it's a scary
Gomorrah and I'm gonna tell you
something that's gonna save your life
you ask the most Jews if I do - bah how
call ye up a said there everything will
be okay yeah of course better I do too
but everything's okay Yom Kippur thank
you
yeah schedule after Yom Kippur am i
clean won't you say yeah I feel it mare
if I feel like a newborn baby it's not
true they're not so many things yom
kippur takes care of let me tell you the
Gemara in you ma the Gemara says are ba
Caloocan a para there are four levels of
atonement listen carefully
let's say someone fails to fulfill
mitzvot si
someone you know de Mitzvah toss a is a
positive commandment shaking the lulav
and Estragon Sukkot sitting in the
sukkah eating matzah wearing to fill in
let's see
seeing shimmer at the right time very
important to know Shabbat morning
oh I said shimmer you have to know the
man crema is a man crema
if you say the ship after this man crema
you didn't say the Shema it's not you
don't get them it's not if sometimes
Friday night I said to shimmer on the
shul
there's before it's the attacker
forbidden for a night for you have to
know so what's a person did not fulfill
them it's not that saying says a chimera
if a person does Chuba immediate
atonement you're clean
right away you don't even need Yom
Kippur if soin violated love a negative
commandment somebody wore shaatnez
somebody spoke loshon Hara and you do
chuhwa the sinner still there you need
Chava and you don't keep or that's a
scary thing that me but but it's not Yom
Kippur yet what if I don't make it to
you I'm capable that's why we eat our of
Yom Kippur to show oh thank God I made
it to Yom Kippur and I didn't leave this
world before Yom Kippur got rid of my
love him
what if someone violated Kree taught
something that carries with it
penalty of curette chuhwa ain't gonna do
it
Yom Kippur ain't gonna do it
so the Chimera you saw him that bizarre
then it's a very frightening thing it's
a very frightening thing
there are many sins Yom Kippur is not
gonna take care of two buns not gonna
take care yousa rim travails afflictions
I'm just here to tell you what the
Chimera says and then the governor says
he will Hashem desecrating the name of
God does true but take care of Nam yom
kippur know you saw him even used to him
not
not until the last day of life it's a
very scary Gomorrah the frightening
Gomorrah that means that even Schumer
even Yom Kippur there are certain things
that can't get you ready for this comes
Moran he down comes man you know
and they save our life says the men
karkinos says ikeda when does the Gemara
mean that shuva doesn't do the job you
need sometimes Yom Kippur and you sue
him and meat ah that's if you do economy
to a low level to that because when you
do a low level chuva this thing is
downgraded and if the sin is downgraded
you still have a semblance of sin so you
need extra detergent so you're gonna
need Yom Kippur has to show Mesa rim but
if you do to family I have a your
cheeseburger transformed into carbon
pizza so if a person does too bad of
love of God in one second every sin you
ever did is not only gone it's turned
into Mitzvah and you don't have to worry
about the most severe sins they're not
severe censored your greatest Mitzvah
Dermott sort of time can you ask him to
be jealous of he wished he could have
eaten that cheeseburger and transformed
it into the current path that's why it's
so important to do premium to the
premium chuhwa you save your life
everything everything is wiped away
everything is transformed let me tell
you a story you know the story you heard
about the Shilla great Shilla the
richest guy he was the richest guy in
Bukhara and in Queens he's double as
rich as he was his daughter married the
son of the poorest guy in the city
there's a great chin of a perfect match
and the father of the bride said look I
know my situation we know your situation
we've got it covered
we're gonna pay for everything the
flowers the liquor the orchestra the
photographer the shade those everything
all you need to do is buy your son a
suit for the wedding we have everything
else covered but the father of the groom
had no money so where does he can get a
suit already he's not gonna get him a
custom suit he's gonna go to one of
these you know stores and I don't know
where but Bora Park and get in one of
these suits buy one get 80 free and he
got him a suit you know it's like it's a
lefty suit as two left arms that's what
he could afford and the son is on the
way to the Copa and he gets into an
accident and he goes flying out of the
window into a puddle and the suit is
ripped and wet and ragged and he walks
into the Koopa and the father-in-law
looks at him said what happened to you
tell some story so look it's no sweat
off my back to get you a new suit this
time I'm gonna buy your suit but when I
buy you a suit I don't go to that store
in Barra Park I'm getting you my kind of
suit when I pay for the suit I'm getting
you my kind of suit says the Dubna
Magadh you could be it's a dick gun more
and you could try to do mitzvahs you
could be the most righteous man in the
generation your mitts vote will always
be limited by human shortcoming no human
being could do a perfect mitzvah with
love of God with fear of God fulfilling
all the details
our Mitzvah will always be lacking
because we're human beings but when God
gifts you a mitzvah
God will gift you his kind of Mitzvah
and when he gives you his kind emits
light it will be a stunning brilliant
glorious Mitzvah when does God gift us a
mitzvah if we didn't have a Ron and we
do too bad of love and God transformed
that of Aron to a mitzvah that Mitzvah
will be the greatest merit we have in
our repertoire by mccombs a ballet Chava
um dim tsadikim cameraman
homo even the Codel hador could never do
the perfect mitzvah that God will gift
you with if you do too bad of love and
therefore says my Ramsey da i nee na
Donny washer Bosch Emily
I mean little King little kingly you
know what kind of tumor you need to do
it all I need little diva Dodie lee
hye-in for my beloved it's a hint
what kind of true love do we need to do
in hello suvamay I have a heart you
might have love premium chuhwa if you do
premium chuhwa when the yama didn't
comes you're gonna be higher than the
gondola are all your Ave Road will be
brilliant mitzvahs
I need Lido di am for the one that I
love she say it's a very high level to
do too bad of love could we really love
God the Calvo table vote says the
highest night Riga is love of God but on
the other hand the Vilna Gaon says you
could teach love of God even to a little
child the love of God is a natural love
every Jew in his heart of hearts loves
Akhilesh Marku but sometimes it's
covered over
sometimes there's their layers on top of
it on top of on top of it what we need
to do is we need to dig deep down into
our heart and access the love of Hashem
that's there already you know there's a
big question how could the Torah command
us to love God you know it's one of them
it's vote one of the 613 mitzvot love
Hashem which means you can't let a day
if your life go by without fulfilling
the mitzvot of love of God what you when
I ask a question what you it's we're
saying oh did I put on tefillin today
I'm not sure if I put on filling today I
can't remember everybody knows they make
it their business to put on tefillin and
if you didn't you know you make sure you
got your filling on nobody will let a
day go
in their life without wearing school in
so the cuff it sky em you can't let a
day in your life go by without
fulfilling the basic mitzvot of loving
her color Sparkle when do i fulfill that
mitzvah when you say the parcel can
create Shama we all hafta eight hashem
elokenu you should love Hashem your God
at that moment a person should focus on
the Mitzvah the iris the positive
command to love a color Sparkle and if
you don't have a chance then so the
hobbits Khayyam don't go home and eat in
the morning unless you know you fulfill
that Mitzvah
so rather victor miller's at the time
the rock would say everyday a person
should say the following you're walking
down the street you should say i love
you' ash so people are gonna think
you're crazy
first of all they know already okay and
even besides that so he would say you
know go into the telephone booth and you
make a long-distance call you pick up
the phone and you say i love you' a sham
the problem is there no more telephone
booths so either the one option as you
can move to London in London in London
they have the big red telephone but God
in His infinite wisdom created something
called a phone you might not know what
that is a phone is one of these little
boxes that people we're on their belt in
a holster as if they would have a pistol
you know you ever see like Dominic
people are going again that's the phone
that they have people anyway are on the
phone the whole day right they're
walking in the street cars are about to
hit them it doesn't matter it's big
and the false choice they're on the
phone so you take the phone and nobody
has to know you're making a
long-distance call to God and you say
God I love you Michael it's one of the
613 mitzvot so natira for the key Vega
rights it's very interesting
imagine your kid comes home from school
and says you know I don't like yongki I
don't like this kid no you have to like
him you can't tell somebody you have to
like someone either you like them or you
don't like them either you love someone
you know you're going out and the
parents uh she's over the guys so I'm
not feeling it the parent no you have to
feel it yeah that's a recipe for
disaster right
so how could God say you have to love
Hashem either you love him or you don't
so listen carefully look we're in the
davin in the midst of love of Hashem is
positioned right after what barakat ah
Shem ha boy share you saw al-bayada
that God loves you
once Hashem tells you that he loves you
there's a principle in human dynamic can
my impugn name upon him came Laban ar mo
coming right where the key Vega writes
right after we say the love that Akash
growth has for us once God loves us it's
only natural it's already in our heart
we feel the love of Hashem to us and we
naturally will reciprocate I'll tell you
a story so my grandfather used to live
and be well he was a rabbi in Pittsburgh
since 1951 God should watch over him
he's 102 years old you know he lives
with my parents in Brooklyn and as a
rabbi for sure one of the
responsibilities of a rabbi is you know
you sometimes have to preside over an
unveiling why you need a rabbi for an
unveiling I don't know it's a way to
give the rabbi some extra you know the
rabbi has to say that to him you know
you have to study for many many years to
detail to read the paragraph that to him
and to read the grave so you need a
rabbi my grandfather would preside over
the veil my grandpa was not well and he
asked my father to do it so my father
gets the call from the guy the guy says
ok rabbi I'm gonna be picking you up in
an hour we're gonna go down to the
cemetery and you're gonna do the
unveiling okay fine he wasn't a
practicing rabbi but you know it wasn't
rocket science so this is Pittsburgh
Pennsylvania the guy knocks on the door
it's a six foot five big burly gruff man
he comes in a pickup truck this guy is
like a little
around the edges not a very refined guy
said rabbi were going down to the
cemetery you're gonna do the unveiling
thing from him okay so he goes to the
cemetery and he starts to show my dad he
says you know rabbi we're all here we're
all here all of us are here my brother
is over here and my sister is over here
and my niece is over here and my nephew
is there and here's my first wife and
here's my second wife and here's my
third wife and he's showing off graves
like he'd be showing a bottle cap
collection no emotion
this guy's a rough guy here's my son
here's my daughter no emotion at all and
then this six foot five man from western
Pennsylvania shows my dad the grave of
his father and mother that passed away
forty years earlier and he breaks down
crying like a baby you know if I were to
ask you what is the strongest love in a
person's heart many people would say it
for a child but there is a certain
dimension that the strongest love that a
person has is for their father and
mother and the reason is because the
first love that a person is born with is
the lovely half to their parents when
they come into this world they have no
brother and sister sometimes no children
no spouse all they have is a father and
mother so love for a parent is the most
natural of moisture Aveeno tells
Claudius around a binocular Sparkle how
our vehicle Konoha
he's your Tata he's your father that's
what she was all about the reason why
humor works is because of Shama halka
voto called OMA home the reason God
could accept our tubas because he's our
father how are we so confident in the
month of L all I Neela Dodie Dodie
that if we make an effort to come close
to God that God will come close to us
why are we so confident let me end with
the following so they're a bunch of kids
playing on the beach they're playing on
the shore and there's one little child
that all the rest of the kids are
playing up further up and he goes all
the way down to the water and he's
standing by the water he's he's looking
out at the horizon and he has this flag
and he's waving the flag and the other
kids say come come join us why are you
not playing with us and the kid sitting
around I got to do something so what he
got to do I see I'm waving this flag who
are you waving at well my way I'm waving
at the ship that was passing the ship so
you know they squint their eyes they see
like this dot moving across they say you
ridiculous we could barely see it why
are you waving at the ship so I'm not
only waving at the ship I know that the
captain of the ship is waving back at me
so you can't even see the ship you can't
see the captain why are you so sure that
the captain is waving back at you so kid
says because the captain of that ship is
my father
that's the month of El Oh you know why
we're confident that if it's on Neela
Dodie Dodie Lee you know why we're
confident that if we take our best half
make our best efforts and we come close
to that color Sparkle and we repent our
sins out of love do you know why we're
confident that God will double in kind
because Hashem is not only our king
Hashem's our father and only our father
and if we do our best to do Premium
chuhwa then this will not only be a
successful L all this will be the best
month of your life the happiest month of
