Sleep Paralysis

[Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] when all of the problems that we have in life that's what the torah is for that's what we're supposed to have now you guys have some questions i have some more information but i know that you guys have some questions so please who wants to go first yes it's not that it's not that he didn't sleep because of the uh he didn't have vitacon he didn't sleep because he had to deal with the problems he had a son that tried to kill him he had a certain people that literally his own people that prayed for him to die because they knew that who is not going to allow the better mikdash to be built until he dies and that goes into uh you know becomes alive or becomes the king and so on and so forth he had so many problems that he never literally had any peace and quiet to sleep the other thing is also the ham say that him along with many of the for example the gaumy vilna never slept more than two hours and the reason why is because many of the very very scared of the fact that they would lose control of their body when they would sleep now this might not seem like much to most people like yeah of course you go to sleep that's the point lose control of your body they were scared of losing control of their body because when you lose control of your body that means that the sitra the it's can get control of it and it can influence you to do things you don't want to specifically waste seed they were so scared of the sin that they got to a point where they literally were scared to go to sleep because even though the sin would not be an intentional sin nonetheless they knew what a sin really meant in heaven and therefore they didn't even want to do it unintentionally so many of that sadiq never really slept much and it's not because they were just so ambitious it was also because they didn't want to lose control over their body is having a happiness with whatever it is that you have whatever you have good or bad but also aspiring to do better to do better and giving everything that you do a meaning like you don't want to just have more money because you want to buy more stuff you want to have more money because you want to be able to do more of what hashem wants you to do yes of course you could buy more stuff you could buy a different car you could buy a different house but for what what purpose did every does everything serve in essence the goal of of the torah is to attach kedusha to everything material so even if you're going to do business do business with hashem in mind first of all conduct your business honestly second of all do be an honest business person in general third of all have a kosher business don't go in like i had one guy came to me one time and he said listen i want to donate i said because listen what are you doing to the door we start asking some questions i said okay you know it was after a show i had in my house maybe four years ago i said sure whatever you want donate we have a lot of different things we're doing because i like your shoeim he came to another shoe after that and he was he brought his partner with him and one of my students told me because you know he is you know he came to my shoe and he says he wants a donut that's all i know because this guy's worth 100 million dollars i said i don't really care how much he's worth but so so maybe i'll donate after they disappeared month two months three months five six months disappeared so then i just got i don't know somehow it came up and asked that student by the way that guy that you said that's worth a hundred million dollars how do you make the hundred million dollars do you know because oh yeah he owns nightclubs i'm like now i know why he didn't donate now i know why there's no way that a kadosh baahu is going to allow someone that has a business that's a that causes other people to sin and take that money to call people to cause people to do mitzvot doesn't match your whole business is to cause people to sin and you think that hashem is gonna allow you to use the money that you cause people to sin in order to cause other people to make me sweat impossible why it's not me it's it's the opposite of measure of measure you have to have miguel they give the merit to someone that has a merit so who's not gonna give someone that's a murderer the the benefit of let's say saving a life doesn't work it's the opposite so now it made sense even though the money wasn't the problem the merit was the problem so if a person has beetahon he's going to aspire to do more but always have hashem in mind that regardless of what he has he has to conduct his business the right way he has to be an honest person and so on and so forth but also know that whatever he's aspiring to to have whatever he's aspiring to have has to have a kadashboku in mind so yes you could aspire to have let's say grow your business from this with from from a million dollars to 10 million dollars no problem you want more you're gonna do your ishtadloot your effort to get to that but whether you get to it or not that's only in hashem it's always so you're going to do your effort without canceling a torah or putting the torah on hold you're simply going to have bitcoin that i'm going to put maesta loot and if hashem desires for me to succeed will succeed which means if you succeed it's only because of if you fail it's also only because of which means that one way or the other whether you succeed or fail you're still happy you're still happy why because both are the will of hashem that's why they say the baal shem tov allah shalom said if he goes up to the shaman and after the bed dean and shaman says you know you know all the things you did were wrong you're going to go to genome the baal shrimp says to his students i'm happily going to jump inside genome the student said wait a minute your whole life you learned it good why why would you jump again no why would you be happy about it because because that's also the will of hashem if hashem wants me to go to gain my whole life is to do the will of hashem if he wants me to go again i'll happily go to genome meaning obviously he's not going again no he didn't even see him point being is that when somebody tunes their mind tunes their heart to the extent where all they want is what hashem wants all they see is what hashem sees in essence meaning they want what hashem wants good and bad become the same to them because of that be the hornet you have that you know that okay this bad that's from hashem this good that's from hashem so this current situation everything is from hashem i'm happy with it whatever it is you're never going to get into a depressed state of mind you're never going to get to a uh you know uh stressed out anxiety or misery of some kind a lot of people are miserable because they feel like they don't have enough somebody to ask me the whole never has that why because they know that whatever they have perfect that's what hashem wants i'm gonna try and do whatever i can to get more but i'm always gonna have hashem in mind which means number one i'm going to do whatever i do as far as she should do in the business two i'm also gonna do whatever i need to do spiritually i'm going to check myself if i'm praying enough i'm going to check myself i'm keeping shabbat good enough i'm going to take check myself to see whatever what am i doing spiritually to merit more do i have plans to make more money because i want to buy a bigger house so i could show off or so i could actually fulfill them have guests most people have a big house just to show off most big houses they don't have sugar in them they have a big house the shuttle are missing so the question is yes hashem will give some people that big house and my book enjoy it problem is that if you use that big house just to show off to people when you go up to shemaim it won't look good it won't be such a nice fancy house over there you'll get punished for it why hashem says i gave you a perfect tool to sanctify my name i gave you 87 rooms in the house you used one for you one for your wife one for the dog and the other rooms were left empty how come you didn't invite any other house something to your house what the whole house was just to show off the people so i gave you a gift and you misused it so be tacon means that it's not just having confidence that akidos who runs the world but it's also managing your life that way managing your life you're allowed to want more you're allowed to be ambitious and you should be ambitious that ambition is for you to want more in life more spirituality mainly and the way you do it is by attaching the materialism and is to to the spirituality that's one of the difficulties a lot of people have is that as soon as they have a material in front of them they have money in front of them they forget about god a lot of times that's why a lot of times you'll see bad stories on the news of i don't know somebody stealing from the government or all types of horrible stories with religious people behind it it's not that they were not religious they were religious they just didn't believe in that hashem is watching everything there's a lot of people that do good that you don't see in the news [Music] you
