you're listening to the 108th edition of the be talking podcast and we continue with a plastic that speaks about Arpita Market therefore my heart was joyous and my covet which is a reference to the nashama my soul was ecstatic office My Flesh my very body itself shall dwell with absolute an absolute sense that Hashem is with me now plastic before is a famous person I place Hashem in front of me always kimimini balamoit it does not go away from it doesn't falter from my right hand so these tubes took them together teach us an incredible thing simcha the incredible simcha the joy that we have that we can have we have the potential to experience when we indeed trust in Hashem when we sense that Hashem is right next to us all the time says the IBN Ezra oh before they even Ezra he brings here on the bottom in Arkansas interestingly the safer that has the famous charity so I'm sorry not the silver that has the Sharpie talking has a chapter a section has different sections in the safer one of the sections is Simcoe Joy included in the concept of joy is the concept of guitar the only way to have true Joy my friends is through this trust in Hashem because this is what it says there that a person who believes absolutely with his full heart and he trusts in the help of Hashem the rock the foundational the most foundational one who gives existence to the world so then he's always happy if you know that Hashem is with you there's no there's no Greater Joy than that we said and such a person who knows that Hashem is with him so every single thing that he needs to endure every single difficult situation he finds himself in he knows that it's like a person who's sick and he has to take a very bitter pill to swallow a bitter pill but he does it with joy because he knows that this pill is going to give him a refuge he's going to cure him of his ailments of his sickness says you need to understand that Joy is something which includes everything it's the most all-inclusive aspect that we can speak of us a person who is happy with what he has he's Rich even if he's poor yes what is the true Joy it's the rejoicing in Hashem to rejoicing in the aspect of the fact that Hashem is constantly with us so you want to know the key to happiness the true key the Ultimate key to Joy in this world is be talking his awareness of Hashem in our lives is trust in Hashem Apostle says therefore my heart Rejoice what is the heart the heart is the intellect foreign right there's a rejoicing of my soul that's the Kuwaiti which means my honor is reference to my soul so my very flesh my very body itself the physical aspect of myself will also have a sense of confidence in Hashem Tom what's the reason he says live in Ezra then when a person is attached to the higher power to the highest power I would say his soul rejoices it's such an awesome simcha when a person experiences Hashem in his life There's No Greater Joy than that boy is since they've been Ezra the fact that I trust in Hashem can change the future it protects me from any sicknesses that in a natural way could have come and I'll just add in parenthetically here I just heard from arashiva I was listening to shirm about my pair you read from the ramban which I haven't seen it inside recently but I have seen it in size worth checking out it's it's in eife in Job chapter 36 verse 7. season remember 36 is six times six and then the seven is the next number it's an email chapter 36 for seven ramban there says that a person who has true Faith who has he's taken out of the natural Order of Things the person has Miracles happening to him all the time if a person has this level I'll be talking and that's exactly what the Ibanez was saying by attaching myself to Hashem I become supernaturally protected I can change the future I can change time I can change the natural order of things the natural orders that a person gets sick if they come in contact with someone else who's sick all right okay it's a tremendous skittish my physical body can be in this world without any worry why because I'm attached to the highest reality to Hashem himself sister a duck the fish is before as we mentioned is I'm placing Hashem before me since I place Hashem in front of me always be my heart rejoices what's the heart that's the intellect of the person my honor rejoices as we said it's a reference to the soul which is the honor of the physical body this is where doc an interesting thing because I have this sense that Hashem is with me so I can be assured because I have this connection to Hashem then my soul when it leaves my body will be attached to Hashem it will come back into Union to it's an open relationship with God because I know that I feel sorry about that My Flesh excuse me my physical body as well as long as I'm alive I have that sense of I have that sense that it's all good that Hashem will save me from all damage so again the connection of the connection that I sense and I feel to Hashem guarantees that'll be protected in this world from any damage yeah there's a piece here from the Hassan Cipher Sav Cipher so read in a moment but first I'd like to see there for some reason I'm not sure exactly why you put it in this order but there's another piece which I think is more along the lines of what we've been speaking about which is later I'll read that first we'll come back to the South Cipher foreign King David said my heart rejoices what's that a reference to the heartache it's the life-giving spirit it's the that which enlivens the body that aspect of myself where what's the difference between a human who's alive and a human who's dead there's a spirit that animates the body that's there's a joy in that animating spirit foreign right what is the covet as we said previously it's the soul it's the honor Shanika is covet it's referred to as the honor so there's an aspect of a spiritual sense of Joy there's an aspect of a physical animating sense of joy and of course there's the goof the body itself and it mentions all of these different parts now we have the soul we have the body and we have the animating Spirit which connects the soul the higher spiritual aspect to the physical body keeps the two connected all of them complete the holy Torah our officer is so what happens what's the result of having these three aspects connected through the Torah through our connection to Hashem so the result is that my physical body there's a ishko Nevada I dwell with confidence which I'm not familiar with which obviously somehow illustrates the fact that when I have this recognition of Hashem when I had this be talking so everything is good but in contradistinction in contrast we recognize myself can't we find that when a person has kennel and a person does not have a sense that everything that's happening to him is good he doesn't have a sense that Hashem is with him he doesn't have a sense that whatever I have is mine and that's good so then his bones are rotting with with jealousy someone who has uh jealousy in his heart so his bones rots Hashem but contrast that with somebody that in all of his ways he recognizes and he and he tries to keep the way of Hashem this is not just I play sashem before me but it's in an active way I'm placing Hashem before me as the Arabian understands is making Hashem part of my life by fulfilling his will by doing the misses by by fulfilling the Commandments everything in this person this individual is doing is in order to reach a greater level of perfection of closeness to Hashem by fulfilling that which the Torah says to do through that as Azar says he brings the czar through the Torah so we connect the soul the highest aspect of myself through the ruach through the connecting Soul aspect to the Goof to the body always which he understands I mean keeping the Torah fulfilling the directives of the Tai rally there's this so it creates a powerful connection between the different aspects of myself my soul my ruach my my goof and there's a sense of fulfillment a sense of slamness of perfection a sense of confidence that all is good in my life so it's a very powerful idea as well so we have the simcha which we spoke about at the beginning the joy that a person experiences when we recognize that Hashem is there we have the Fulfillment of the terror which perfects us and now there's one more aspect which is what the South Cypher speaks about nearly says the soft Cipher what seems to me because seem to be saying that which we find Iran explains in Russia well that was a bug flying by discuss something which is a very deep and important question why is it that we find that good people bad things happen to good people why is that there's something called you soon difficulties painful gives because of his love ly says explicitly in Proverbs King Solomon tells up chapter 3 verse 12 because I'll show you however the one that Hashem loves he gives her proof right it's not it's not pleasant to receive reproof it's not pleasant to receive a dressing down to to be told off why this Hashem send difficulties and challenges on a person it would seem to be because he's getting punished but why but why is this person getting punished if he's a good person if he's a person Hashem loves because of who explains the ideas like this foreign person is trying his best and is succeeding in fulfilling all of The Commandments as he should negative so this person needs to fight his ASR he needs to fight his evil inclination constantly it's a constant battle wants to do certain sins government person is constantly strengthening itself against the person foreign has to go through a challenge all the time the person needs to be worried he won't be able to succeed you won't be able to overcome his his evil inclination will be stronger than him and cause him to transgress Something in the Torah foreign so because Hashem loves him so Hashem specifically gives him challenges news today why he might be poor he might not have any money he might be indeed very poor why because she is because when a person is downtrodden when a person is challenged when a person is poor so the person zitsar is his desires to do wrong are minimized she wants to help the person the person shouldn't fall person should be able to continue to do what's right my name is rushes excuse me Hashem will give a person challenges and difficulties why so that he stays at Santa's he stays righteous because if he becomes rich becomes uh you know things go too easy for him so it's more likely he'll sin um safer based on this I say is King David meant foreign for me always a race of tommen King David of course he was a king he was wealthy he had many many things but he was constantly plagued by difficulties by challenges received from Tanakh we see from Reading to hell and reading the Psalms chased after by his son wanted to kill him he's chased off the show wanted to kill him but he didn't complain to God he never complained and said this I don't want this he always felt that the challenges that he was experiencing were for his good time in the reason was so that he shouldn't Veer away from the good path what she calls the the right hand path his evil inclination shouldn't get the best of him what does it mean it means that he she visited direct his thoughts foreign is facing off with me in a certain sense he's giving me challenges giving me difficulties it's Hashem who's doing it the challenges are from him there are many who come who pursue me this is something which is the opposite of what he wants Hashem is opposite me he's doing the opposite of what I naturally want I don't want to experience challenges and difficulties I want my life to be quiet I want it to be I want it to be you know smooth Angela rally but the fact that Hashem is doing this is not for my bad it's not because Hashem hates me heaven forbid it's not because God is out to get me the verse means Hashem doesn't want me to Veer away from the right hand from the right path going on constantly Hashem is doing these things giving me these challenges so that I stay on the right way so that I do the right thing I remain at Sadiq I remain righteous again and since I thought always since oh it has always had this sense King David is saying I always felt Hashem is doing these things giving me these challenges so that I stay on the right path this is why intellectually I was always joyous I I had a feeling of Joy my soul rejoiced remember officers and I said also my flesh will dwell with confidence I assume even my physical body which feels pain which feels the most the difficulty foreign tells us when a person receives the challenges that he experiences with love when he recognizes that it's hashem's love it's coming from hashem's desire to help a person to stay on a straight and narrow path in America this understanding this recognition takes away the the sharpness the pain the excessive pain I would say of the of the difficulties they're not so heavy on him the high no officer is going to better and that's what it means that my flesh will also dwell in a confident way so it's a beautiful idea so we have a certain it's the first idea we spoke about that we get when we have been talking the second idea was that we have a connection between our soul and our body through the entire learning gives us I would say be talking as well the final idea from the accept Cipher that to the extent that we recognize that every single thing that happens in our lives the challenges that occur are for our best are to keep us on a good path to the extent that we realize that we have incredible joy we have incredible sense of Serenity thank you so much for listening we'll see you again next time
