we're all looking for blessings we're looking for segulas how do we know which ones are real which ones are not one thing we know for sure shabbos is makoya it's the source of all blessings so let's go back to the source and mind the source in the greatest possible way imagine you see people walking around with gold nuggets so you could go running around and ask can i have a gold nugget or two can i have gold nugget you'll get some but maybe find out where you guys getting all this gold from and they say there's an open mind out of town i just free for all take what you want go to the source and shabbos is makura it's the source of all blessing so this series will be focusing on just that we are sitting at the champions suit of friday night with our guests jonathan a little boy of eight his mom and mom's friend and this is the first shabbos suit they've ever been to and jonathan turns to me and he says rabbi moses why do we do shabbos and i'm thinking uh what do i tell this eight-year-old kid or ambam or of destler a foreigner he never shows shabbos in his life so i turn the question back to him i say jonathan what do you think we do shabbas and he's like i don't know how am i supposed to know i asked the audience i say does anybody know why we do shabbos anybody have an answer and my son who's about seven or eight years old at the time he's leaning over for a piece of khala and he says to remember that hashem made the world and jonathan looks at me oh that makes sense and i noticed jonathan's mom turning to her friend saying look at these people the eight-year-olds know why and what they're doing how lucky they are that they know what they're doing you know i was thinking many of us have heard a little complicated pieces of torah about the different aspects of aspects of shabbos but the little answer is the short blurb why am i doing this what am i doing many times it's not in our minds so we're doing all the required actions of shabbos but are we really experiencing shabbos and if you do all the actions without the heart it's like a body without the soul or if you train ourselves to be thinking as we're doing not long deep answers but simple simple answers i can transform my shadows to be a shabbos with a soul so we'd like to start a series just going through the various parts of shabbos simple easy explanations oh
