  SPEAKER_00: I mean, if you want to get to a level of Kedusha, what's the pathway?

  SPEAKER_00: What's the darak to get there?

  SPEAKER_00: Deep down, the true desire of every Jewish soul is to fear and love Hakurish Barakho.
• 0:34
  SPEAKER_00: Ul dov kabo ovdo ofushle, to cling to him and to serve him with complete um service.
• 0:41
  SPEAKER_00: Ulda uh Ulakhaim call mitzos, kedos malasos.
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_00: And our deepest desire is to fulfill all the mitzvos as best as possible, as required by law.
• 0:55
  SPEAKER_00: The natural state of the soul is to connect to the moment, and therefore, if the calling of the moment um requires happiness, we want to be happy.
• 1:04
  SPEAKER_00: If the requirement is to be sad, let's say by Tishabab or whatever, and to feel the Aveos and to connect to the notion of atsu, sadness, to feel that.
• 1:12
  SPEAKER_00: I mean to feel the emotions of what we're supposed to.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_00: Deep down we're able to do that.
• 1:17
  SPEAKER_00: It's just that we're so covered up and therefore we become somewhat numb to what the feelings that we should be having.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_00: We should be sighing bitterly according to that that time, if that's the the calling of the time.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_00: But what can a person do?
• 1:36
  SPEAKER_00: We have all these intricate feelings inside, but we're not connected to them.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: We're not emotionally in touch.
• 2:01
  SPEAKER_00: What's the cause for this inability, for this emotional um neglect that that we so often so many of us suffer from?
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: Tumas eratamim, vatumaskuf, hanat vanetesh says the Pelia, it's it's because we're in a land of the nations, the the place that we dwell in it has tumma, and the actions that we do that defiles our bodies and souls because of uh khat sins and misdeeds, those t that this tumma from the land that we live in and from the mistakes that we make, that's what causes this lack of kadusha, this lack of connecting to the mind, this lack of emotional um adeptness.
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_00: These are the veils that causes and creates this divide between us and our father and have in vain.
• 2:56
  SPEAKER_00: Our eyes have grown too weak to see what takes place on high.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_00: In order to be motivated, you know, every single time we do something good or not good, it's doing something in the higher world.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_00: Imagine if we could see that.
• 3:07
  SPEAKER_00: Imagine if we understood.
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_00: Imagine if we tapped into what the um Neveshaiim tells us, Da Malamacha, know that what's happening above is mimcha, it's from you.
• 3:15
  SPEAKER_00: Can you imagine?
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_00: We would live entirely different, but we're not in touch.
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_00: Why?
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_00: Because we have this veil, it's called tumma.
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_00: A person who's inspired by something, with and he all of a sudden, let's say, you know, there are moments that he does connect and he's filled with because the situation calls for that.
• 3:35
  SPEAKER_00: He's filled with joy because the situation um calls for that.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_00: It's because even though he didn't see anything, his mazzle, his representative angel, his soul is actually seeing something that's happening, and so therefore, it's able to inspire him on occasion to connect with the moment.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_00: Person sometimes will perform his divine service, and he's gonna do it in such a slavistical way, in a complete way, in a beautiful way.
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_00: Right?
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_00: The time of joy with joy and a time of sadness with sadness.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_00: He's gonna be connecting without any apparent reason to that particular time.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_00: He's inspired to perform certain mitzvahs with great fervor and passion.
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_00: Happens because on that day, at that or at that specific moment of the day, there's a certain merit as a khus that he has for whatever reason that's that's recalled from up high.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_00: Umegaando malamaila, and it was revealed to him, maybe not consciously, but to his soul level, to his nishama, it revealed what is taking place up there, and therefore um he's able to connect.
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_00: Because purifying the physical body actually causes a purification and an elevation for the soul.
• 4:53
  SPEAKER_00: He nay kizarbi o'bit tarasgov.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_00: Therefore, it behooves a person to be extremely careful regarding the Tara, the purity of his physical body, youchal is chazi butar of the year of Yava, for then perhaps he will be able to strengthen himself for Tara Fear of Hashem, to love God.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_00: The Simcha Babushlema, you'll be able to have joy and love of Hashem.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_00: The Simchalabodus, I think I just said that.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_00: I yes, I did just say it.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_00: If through being vigilant regarding the purity, that he's able to gain even the tiniest of understanding, to be able to understand a little bit what's happening um in the upper realms, die lola adam locha, khapalafnitch.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: It would be worth it for him to endure thousands and thousands of inconveniences, will o jikamo it's and to exhaust many expenditures in order to do so.
• 5:43
  SPEAKER_00: Therefore, a person should not be deterred by anyone from immersing in a purifying mikvah.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_00: Whenever he can, he should be able to go into mikveh again, because the tower for your guf will be a tower for your nephesh, the shame to Shuvah the Tara Mituma Savanusov.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_00: In the name of repentance, he should purify himself from the stains of his sins that cause this blockages, this veil, this veil, like we discussed, over probably tarmitumaso imnitma bishum dovr, um especially to become pure from his halachituma defilement.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_00: And if he has indeed become tame by coming into contact um through something unclean, like a nevela, um, etc., he should strive to do so.
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_00: It will be called upon him, tar, tara, pure and pure.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_00: And this is in contrast to the Mitsara, who's a tariff says, Tame, Tame, Yukra.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_00: Here's the opposite.
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_00: Plain words the Peleot is doing.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_00: Tahar, Tara, Yukra.
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_00: He will be called the pure one, pure, and a kurash barku, tar, mishars of tarim, the holy one at Karushbarhu is pure, and those who serve him are pure, like we say in Davani, Attik, Ukdoish and Bhalium, right?
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_00: Shem is holy, your name is holy, and the holy ones bless you, meaning we also are holy, we also are pure.
• 6:51
  SPEAKER_00: And the person who serves a Shem in purity with a full measure of spiritual connection, then his reward will be will be doubly as good.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_00: It will be good in a twofold kafula type of manner.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_00: Wishing you all the best, a beautiful um yantif, a beautiful khul Hamoid.
