even touch the edge anyone who goes up the mountain will die the COTS ker read it completely differently the Koska read at the following way he says how purist is the following if you want to go out the mountain don't just touch the edge he summer love him loudly spur how it wouldn't go because I'll be careful you want to go up the mountain hircine I don't touch the edge if you're just touching the edge that's pathetic he says you want to go up the mountain he says the following you got to be prepared color on the Gare Behar mice you mus you got to be prepared to give your very life to go up the mountain this is not such but this is beautiful what he's saying here is anytime you want to go up Harrison a which is really any Mitzvah and which is any Talmud Torah which as I said which is anything we're doing in life which as the Clovis I father says anything could be a mitzvah depending on your qivana anything permitted could be a mitzvah depending on your cuff honour not gonna get into the severe of 'verily Sh'ma but but certainly but it could be a mitzvah so if i am doing it i have to immerse myself that's the COTS Kerr says he saw me with him don't you dare just touch the edge of the mountain if you're just touching the edge of the mountain you're getting nothing it's got to be a total investment it has got to be complete investment color right that's pieces of color gather hair moist you mus you want to really touch the mountain it's got to be to the extent of giving my entire life for that and and and I think really the way to do that is through is through this recognition of why I'm here is to do this and a simcha there's a very beautiful story they tell about Nikola Vassar right about Lucifer bounnam abscissa so Rebbe of the COTS go so he's walking along when he was he was working in dancing he was the CEO of a lumber plant in dancing that's before he became a pharmacist and before he became a river right so he's a CEO of a lambo plant he's walking along on the banks of a river and he's got a couple of Talmud him walking with him and one of them slips in the mud and slides into the river and none of them could swim none of whom could swimming was not big in 19th century polish Hasidic life wasn't so none of them could swim so the guys in the river and he's being carried along by the current they're running along next to the river no one knows what to do simcha bounnam yells at him and excuse my Yiddish is not very good Ruby simcha bounnam yells at him laws mere grissom similar views demlov he awesome which space obviously might is just so bad no one understood that right which means Basel II give my regards to the Leviathan but guys drowning and he says give regards to the love the awesome and this is not very helpful yeah when you get down there regards to love EOS on all right that's like saying someone's drowning right and you say regards to Nemo like what when they tell you in lifeguarding courses to throw someone a line this is not what they mean but what happened is when he said this to the guy in the river the guy smiled he's drowned he smoked and he actually started to thrash around a little more and he was actually able to move himself around a little more so he got close enough to the bank so they could pull him out of the river so his life was saved so the custody master of simcha burn him they said what what were you thinking he says Pasha posix says and you Shia keeper simcha safe sail we usually translate that you shall go forth with joy he says I translate it literally keep a simcha when you have simcha they say you can get out of anything he says all I saw that on this man's face was huge despair I saw in his face pessimism I saw had given up hope I figured if somehow I can inject a little bit of simcha in his mind so one neuron will say to the other one there that was funny and you know and he's so it will change his demeanor and he'll save himself he'll save himself something to save him classical singer born him wasn't me to say he saves himself and and I believe this is also the way to get out of the distraction of dopamine if we have Simcoe which is the serotonin we are in a state of contentment with what we're doing and to understand that that's why we're here is really really the focus and that's going to give me the focus and the truth of matter is it actually is a cycle of fantastic sight not a cycle of destruction but there's a cycle of construction the more you understand that this is why I'm here the more you are the more you were happy with it and the happier you are the easier it is to focus on that experience and the more you focus on the experience the more of a flow experience it is and the more of a flow experience it is the more meaningful it would be the more you'll want to repeat it the more you'll be in you'll be elevated by it and consequently it's a wonderful fantastic flow experience simcha and simple quarters in a flow experience and so therefore you can get out of it you've just experienced another tour a class brought to you like Torah anytime calm
