Transcript
- 0:01I wrote her to her, she #10. If you listen to this year, I
- 0:06think you've got an opportunity to encourage others to listen
- 0:09because the teachings of Rough Cook transform this period of
- 0:12time. This potentially month of L or
- 0:15Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and to depression and misery and people
- 0:18feel so bad about themselves. Listen, learn the Torah today.
- 0:22It's absolutely incredible. We've spoken previously about
- 0:25two different or three big ideas of toshiva.
- 0:28Two different ways Toshiva can affect a person.
- 0:30It can be gradual, it can be sudden.
- 0:33And here we're speaking about a gradual toshiva and what that
- 0:37can look like. So RAF Cook tells us yes to
- 0:39Shuvamaku Veen at Negethkhat Mukhado Khata imomb.
- 0:43It can be particular to Shiva for one sin or for many sins.
- 0:46But you're focused, directed towards a particular area in
- 0:50your life that's not working. And what do you do?
- 0:52You focus on what you've done wrong.
- 0:54So you're you're cognizant, will make correct.
- 0:57I love you regret it or make that OK.
- 0:59There's anguish because you don't want to be doing that
- 1:01wrong thing. That's fine.
- 1:02That's classic ideas of to Shiva.
- 1:06But here you begin to elevate yourself to free yourself
- 1:10because you're beginning to fix something that's broken.
- 1:12The Navshalmatta Passat for Hola.
- 1:14His soul climbs upwards until he is freed.
- 1:18And I'm sure Mishtakh rehma avdotta hata it.
- 1:21You see rough cook talks about that, that trap.
- 1:24You're enslaved to something, but you begin to emancipate
- 1:29yourself and that's not a process that is meant to be
- 1:31focused on the fact you are a slave.
- 1:33The focus here is on the emancipation, on the freedom and
- 1:36therefore the joy that comes with it, rather than the sense
- 1:39of, oh, I'm such a bad person who magish be keeper.
- 1:42The person feels internally at a ke rutaka the shot, this holy
- 1:46freedom honey imamma oddly enough, shaha nahala, which is
- 1:50so very pleasant to his weary soul.
- 1:52Yes, your soul is worried because you're you're enslaved,
- 1:55You're trapped. You're not full of vitality and
- 1:57life, but you begin to sense the beauty of feeling free Ruhala or
- 2:03MIT rappe, and he grows progressively and he is cured
- 2:07back to spiritual health. And then in beautiful rough cook
- 2:10poetry, the Zahare Ora Shashema Shah said the radiance of the
- 2:15life of light, the son of kindness, shines upon him and he
- 2:19this person grows more content. He's filled with inner delight
- 2:23on egg Vedesh and Penny. Me, Yakhadim, Levnesh, Pavanefa
- 2:27Shaka, Manduka. Yes, it's a it seems to be a
- 2:29part of the contradiction. That broken heart which reminds
- 2:34you that you are enslaved is part of the beautiful feeling as
- 2:37you sense the freedom and the emancipation.
- 2:40Pretty much like anytime that's use a simple analogy of going
- 2:43doing exercise. You might be feeling the pain
- 2:46and the struggle, but you realize that you're actually
- 2:48elevating yourself to the next level of physical ability or
- 2:52agility and therefore part the pain isn't something that you
- 2:55need to cry about, that needs to depress you, but you recognize
- 2:58it's part of a process. Mossel Flo on a grukhan Mia adds
- 3:02this beautiful spiritual delight, penne, meeveishly
- 3:06mutamiti and true wholeness. Because you recognize that you
- 3:10are becoming the person that you really need to become.
- 3:15And it was bad in that when the soul was in a bad place, but
- 3:18then it but my your ill call home.
- 3:19What's the point of anything when life is so dry?
- 3:23But now how content is the soul when it feels within itself that
- 3:28its sin has been forgiven because it's come close to
- 3:30Hashem again? It's alive and shining within
- 3:33the soul, for its inner burden has been eased.
- 3:36And that is the beauty of a true process when seen through the
- 3:39prism of Rough Cook's teachings. Check out chapter 116.
- 3:45And to heal him, Surely Nashi Lim no Khairiki Hashemga Malala.
- 3:49He would turn my soul to your peace, for Hashem has been kind
- 3:53to you. We're going back to Hashem.
- 3:57But that journey we'll have to continue another time.
- 4:00Have a very lovely day.
