  SPEAKER_00: Alright, Khevra, today, Pela Yo, it's day 134.
• 0:04
  SPEAKER_00: New topic, the topic of Yamin, the right side.
• 0:07
  SPEAKER_00: We all want to be on the right side of history, and perhaps in our own unique way we can do that by tapping into how the Tara views the right side, giving kovot to the right side.
• 0:19
  SPEAKER_00: We might not understand where in the higher realms things are happening or why things happen, but there's an idea about focusing and giving kovod to the right side.
• 0:28
  SPEAKER_00: It has a certain level of prominence, even in mundane areas.
• 0:31
  SPEAKER_00: Says the Peleo, it's like this Amurab Sayyid Zakhan al Racha call piniyash adam painalo, you alal at zadyamen.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: Khazalov taught us wherever a person turns, he should always turn to the right.
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_00: When you put on shoes, you put the right one on first.
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_00: So Kishalovish Malbusho, when you get dressed, you put the right side on first.
• 0:50
  SPEAKER_00: So practically you put on a shirt, put the right sleeve on first.
• 0:54
  SPEAKER_00: Pants, put the right side on first.
• 0:56
  SPEAKER_00: Socks, you got the point.
• 1:00
  SPEAKER_00: Grasp both sides with the garment in your right hand.
• 1:03
  SPEAKER_00: Vyakiv derekach, swing it around your back until Hatsad, Vyim Saratara small, till now it's on the left side.
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_00: Yad the smallest.
• 1:19
  SPEAKER_00: Similarly, a person has to be vigilant regarding the talus he wears for the mitzvah.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: Again, he should grasp both sides on his right hand, then he should use his right hand to transfer the other side to his left hand, and then wrap himself in the talus.
• 1:43
  SPEAKER_00: Every time we wash our hands, whether you wake up in the morning, you wake up from a nap, or whether you're washing for a mighty, whatever it might be, you're washing your right hand feist.
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_00: And then you should go ahead and wash his hands first.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: We have to be very careful in all areas, to give honor and precedence to the right side.
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_00: These are deep old mystical ideas that have profound implications in upper realms that we cannot even see.
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe you can see.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: I can't see them.
• 2:40
  SPEAKER_00: Uviprab in in Hashkiva.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_00: Also regarding how a person sleeps.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_00: So then it's likely he can become defiled, the impurity of Shaykh Bazar.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_00: So too, when you're giving out Hammaitzi, you know, you're having a shared meal.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_00: And you're now giving out the bread or the wine to people.
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_00: Where do you start?
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_00: You start with the person on your right.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, we send it to Yivna Let Sad Yamintahila, go to the right side, Imlosha Mesiv, Lutat's mo, Tamuchim, unless the person on your left is a Torah scholar.
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_00: Give it to him because the Torah, the honor for the honor of Torah, that's even greater.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_00: The person on your right and the left side guy, uh the yid who's a tamuchakim.
• 3:53
  SPEAKER_00: When you go up to the Torah, go up to the right, go up on the right side.
• 4:01
  SPEAKER_00: Somebody who's not careful with these matters, he doesn't make a distinction between the right and the left.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_00: So he's included in the Pasik and Mishlay that says he who scorns a word will himself be harmed.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_00: Well, a person takes care, he takes pride in that in his status, he will be exalted.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_00: Related to this, Palioit adds like a short little paragraph about Shalom bias, actually, which is just an interesting thing about how to have success in a marriage.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_00: And it does have to do with the right or left because right or left represents distinct sides.
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_00: And when sides get get get merged and you're not sure where the aisle is and where what then things get confusing.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: And he's talking about roles in marriage, each one has to be on their quote-unquote right side.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_00: Um everything that happens in the house should be at his word.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_00: The man has to be the man of the house, and the woman has to be the woman of the house.
• 5:04
  SPEAKER_00: When the woman takes on the man's roles and the man takes on the woman's roles, that's not good.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_00: Shem Chasasham Ishto Mesha's love, oh isha.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_00: If it becomes the I mean, if the husband shirks his responsibilities and now it becomes on the wife, she's now compelled to take charge.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_00: And areas of the of the home, let's say the spiritual welfare, etc., of establishing a entire home, like if if now she has to be the the the head of that or the the main breadwinner or whatever that you know, every each family their own, but the Pelot is saying the man has to be the man's role and the woman has to be the woman's role.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_00: Important idea.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_00: Shagura is the agbi has um when a when a woman has to now take on the man's role, so now this the side of left, the left side, which is a side of impurity, it now carries uh grows stronger, which is not good alagbi hadin and Allah and causes divine judgments against the house.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_00: Negatively, albala kiza rah.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_00: The man is supposed to take charge and be the one in charge of the home, not the woman.
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_00: Um, and if she now has to take charge, then that's not good.
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_00: Aval im tehekafu full of however when both spouses are doing their right thing and they're both in their lane, doing um you know what's in their rightful place and maintaining that, so then you're chai musukim, their life will be sweet.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_00: These are very ancient, profound ideas and concept.
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_00: Like the Tara tells us the Prosikan Mishlay, long life is to those who go to the right.
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: Shall be Zoyhe to go to the right and always be on the right side of history.
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_00: Be well, have a wonderful day, and I'm R to Shem.
