Purim: The Power of Self Sacrifice

we wanted to mention a very fundamental that we can take from this beautiful holiday that it's known as p and maybe sometimes unfortunately Too Short writes that we all know that says in he always takes care of us before the Mak actually comes around one of the examples that the brings of being as we all know that I knew all 70 they didn't realize he knew all the languages that he started talking Persian in front of him and little did they know that he was FY he knew Arabic also and by understanding the L he was able to figure out what they were talking about and as we all know he saved which in turn eventually led to the fact that wanted to give him and led him on a horse I take it I don't have to explain to you the whole story the question is why is this what does this have to do with the Pres first of all whole episode with the horse didn't really help much and what kind of Ru was this there was no real Ru in the fact that he was able to save a they be able to save uh that is the question that needs to be addressed and the answer is of course we're going to go Jewish list that the answer to this question is with another question the biggest question on the board and this should really bother everyone is why in Heaven's name did morai try to save a this guy was a good for nothing he was a Russ Gore he had his wife under under under shackle and chain in the castle of course he would want A's di why this guy should drop dead and get killed let them poison him let him get rid of him and then take your wife and run why why is he interested in saving him it didn't make any sense of course you know we try to be good people and not try to get people killed but if something's about to happen this Tyrant is in the way and he's acting the way he's acting let him get let him get put away there's nothing to do he's also a There's A din of you don't have to take care of a go when he's going when he's going through a difficult time so he explains what the big and this the we want to expand on and that is that Paris Persia is the meter of T the kip of T every Uma every nation has has its own Mida the Mida of pers SAR SAR means selfishness being completely into myself focusing on everything that has to do with me it is always refer pers always refer to as the dove the bear now we know a bear is complete complete Bala the of a bear is he's always chasing after he's not there for the kill St he's there because he's always chasing he never has enough he's always chasing around and that's why it makes sense the Milla opens up its opening scene with a suda that lasted over a week every type of Tia Under the Sun was there it was a suda that had to do with a tremendous amount of drinking every type of food Under the Sun it was a sud that had to do with women it had to do with everything that had to do with with chasing their Tas with no end to the beginning with no end from one end to the to the from one end of the universe to the next everything was there to be able to just get as much as you can and if you notice the reason why we got punished was because we were not because we went to the sud because he actually had the focus of because that is the ciper of Persia the CER of Persia is the SAR the focusing on myself being trying to keep things away from everybody else trying to get as much as I can for my own Tas as as it has to do with everything that has to do with as much as I can take for myself in order to to take care of them and the only way to take care of a kipa like that is being a to having some positive VI trying to help someone else trying to be a trying to give as much as I can for someone else that's how your if the Mak comes as a result of and that's what we did we made a mistake by eating from the from the suit of to go ahead and have a our selfish ways to focus on a tremendous amount of what the only way to take care of it is by AA slave and mor knew the secret and that's why it's called being because he put this of going in and helping another person even though he didn't like even though he had a tremendous amount of nasp a lot of prejudice a lot of reason not to go help this man let him die but still he went out and used the power of to of trying to be positive for someone else not to focus on my interests but to focus on y to focus on someone else in order to save him and that was Thea of theu over here that was the place of Salvation and because of that we were able to succeed in the end that's how we were able to succeed in the end you notice the whole time how did hamon be able to pull this whole stick with money not enough with drinking with women also with money also everything had to do with money how much money he gave over to him everything was focus on being M stuff in the gar even says that in the end he gave him money gave him money back but it didn't make a difference as long as they switched around some finances they went from one place to the next they were happy they were happy with that it reminds me of the old Persian joke that they say there were two of them that were walking and one says to the other if you eat this grasshopper I'll give you $1,000 the guy says okay he ate the Grasshopper And he gave him $1,000 they kept walking and they continue later and then the guy saw another grasshopper and the guy who had a stomach ache he wasn't feeling good so he wanted to get him back he said I tell you what you eat this grasshopper and I'll give you $1,000 said okay no problem and he ate the grasshopper and then he gave him back the $1,000 and they both had stomach aches and they were both saying to each other look what happened we both have stomach aches don't feel well and we ended up in the same status quo we got the save money back to where it was supposed to go they said it doesn't matter the main thing is that we were able to Interchange interact between each other with the money that's all that's all that matters and this is the idea of the Persians they're only focused on just have a little bit to touch the greens to be able to touch a little bit of money to be able to chase their Tyas to be able to get as much as they can and that's why they represent this kipa that we call what there the dove of tarus of tar so why are we mentioning this cuz here's the message of the day who is the person who is the who is the superhero in our story of course we know the biggest superhero in our story is Esther Esther is the one who is able to get us out of the situation and if that's true then how was she able to do it what was her capabilities it must have came to go neg this kipa to be the biggest of the the the biggest the one who can give at its peak they'll be able the one who's able to give to the most and here we have this she's quiet all the time she's always quiet she always does whatever tells her in the time of she's Clum she doesn't ask for anything she's always staying still and stem and she's not in she's not asking for her own interest not trying to take but there's one point that reaches the climax something that probably stands alone in almost all of and that is when she goes ahead and takes her own initiative takes a yma and she goes and tells everyone to fast for three days and she says I'll go into the castle and I'll go to and as we all know they have her popular words that she says now simply speaking it could mean that she says maybe I'm going to die and you know what there are many Jews that died Kem and it's an incredible thing not something that we could all stand up to but that wouldn't be something that would be stand at a claim what stands at a claim is how the gar explains what does it mean she went until now she was until now every time she was with a when she had relation with him she was completely honest she was raped it was against her will she was not interested and therefore she remains permitted to her husband as we all know a woman who Bea from her interest goes with another man at the time that she's married becomes user to her husband forever also to the person that she's with and also to the husband and here it is that she says that I am now going to go to the king and it most likely will mean that I will have to be together with him and by being together with him that means it was my fault I wasn't a car I'm doing it out of what we call my own initiative my own USI and as a result of that from I will just like I will be lost from from will be lost from you in other words she told morai that yes I'm going to end up being coming user to you forever and ever a tremendous M and we have to understand how great this Mish was because let's remember Esther was a she was from the age zero from the time that she was a little girl she knew no parents she had nothing to do her family situation was was nil she didn't have any siblings she was a person who was completely a she had only one person in her life and that was Mor morai who was also the Gutt adore Mor who according to one she and the gamar was her husband and that was her whole life from the beginning to the end of course he expected to have children with his man who would eventually be he was sitting on the S hedrin and they would also sit on the srin they would be your their father's yusha if she would be able to have children with them they would be he was the god Lor and they would be able to continue and have children which are they should be Jews and here he is as it is not only does she give up the last person the last family member that she has in her whole entire life and she has to be completely anold from no type of family life she's stuck with this dove with this big bear this big ugly man that she has to be inside of a castle with forever not only that any children that she has and eventually she will have course she will have children who are officially Jewish but as we all know they act like go they act in all types of ways as a go and she'll be stuck in this castle with this person with no children that act and the type of thing that is serious to be able to give up your whole life give up your whole family give up everything yourself and for what for what reason for cl in order to save clel she did it there's a famous M from there a famous line from the K the KRA had great on liners and one of the says it's it's not a big deal to be to die that's not the the is to live what all these Arabs crazy Arabs are doing and dying and killing themselves is not the deal because they're doing because they have nothing to live for anyways they're just dying for nothing but a person who lives a person who's Mo neish and does things while he's still alive and gives up because he knows it's the right thing to do that's a Mida that's a Mida that we learned from Esther that's the K of of Esther and what we learned from her where did she get this K from where's the M where's the source of Esther having such incredible K well let's go to from to tanak we'll go to the Torah and we all know that Ru did an incredible thing I don't have to go through the whole story with Ru but what we do know is that Yu loved her and what that meant by loving her is that not only was he planning on marrying her everybody knew there was supposed to be a shift 12 everyone know there was 12 children and ra said oh this sh G to be mine just like there was a s just like there was a RKA there will be a ra I will be the source of all of CLA Israel this is an incredible phenomenon to be one of theal of CLA Israel to be the source of all the 12 that eventually will be the source of the of is this will be a memory that will be forever and this will be a that I can have forever what an incredible mad an incredible position for ra to have and and that that's what was meant to her but unfortunately we know about her tricks to father and all the switcher roonies that he did and the Mysterious neish that we all know and are so familiar with that in order to avoid her sister her dear sister her older sister from being embarrassed who was really kind of meant for asov but in the end of the day she became the wife of why because was the she gave over all the and she let her take her place it wasn't just an idea of giving over my B giving over the husband she also knew at that stage that she was being M being the aim of Cl Isel the 12im were now going to be in place and given over to Le as we know most of them were by Leia and not only that she didn't know if she would be able to have any of these now that Leia will intercede now that now that now that Leia becomes in front takes takes the place she ends up getting to a stage of you know what she ended up giving up a stat a status quo that she could have kept why not to embarrass her sister and that's the incredible M of RA that comes and you know who is the Y of RA you know that Y is of Rael well don't forget Esther and Mori are from shavid binyamin they come they ancestors of binyamin and we know bamin are the one of the two children that belong to RA in other words Esther was able to that to be able to get that from her great grandmother that we call RA and it came from that Co of being able to focus on the truth to do what's right in order to do it even if it comes at the expense of myself and with this we have a tremendous understanding and a much deeper understanding into what's known as what tells us that the of the ended up going to the of Esther Esther ended up having the of now what does it mean when we talking about beinga now of course of all of us who go to basak will assume it means obviously it talks about knees and elbows and that's what it has to do with but it can't be only that it can't stop there because over there it talks about the of sh we weren't worried about how well dressed sh was that's not the question the maida of a tanu when we talk about the source of a maid of what who is a tanu and what does a tanu mean is one who does what's right because it's the right thing to do he's he humbles his head into the status of what's AIT because when a person knows what the right thing to do is he's willing to do what's proper to do because that's what needs to be done that's a a person who's willing to take away his own personal his own personal his own interest in order to be able to do what the right thing to do is or in order to do what can help someone else in order for the sake of helping that other person one of the Naas of that is to dress properly ring properly is not what is it's a byproduct it's a to of the med of because when a person wants to do what's right and he's willing to Humble himself so a woman even if she's a very pretty woman or an attractive woman and sometimes a woman as we all know wouldn't mind if a person takes a second look it gives her a certain feeling of accomplishment of importance but she's willing to give that up she's willing to cover that up in order to do what she feels is the right thing to do a and b in order to avoid being M putting a stumbling block in front of another man in front of someone else that will give that second look that's a person who atua meaning they're acting in is because they're being M they're giving up their own personal interest in order to do with the MS that wants for me is and that's a me that's a Godless M that's a beautiful that's a and that's what we're begging for that we should be trying to in these days when we're surrounded by the opposite um we live in a door with no busha with no embarrassment because they could care less about anybody about themselves the capitalistic Democratic way of thinking is also interconnected with how well they dress or how well they don't dress more more or less because has to do is focusing on myself I'm only interested in people putting their eyes on me for what can be done and I don't care about what happens to you that's not what makes a difference it's so interconnected her focus on knowing what's right she was willing to give up the to give give up a being the mother of Kel because she knew that was R she knew I had to do what the right thing is that she got an eser an Esther that was willing to give up her last connection with her last person in her whole family she was willing to lock herself up in a castle till the end of days she was willing to give up any types of children with any type of future instead of having she has to have in in that she's going to give birth to but she did it all why because that's the of that's the right thing to do that's the and that's what she proclaimed she was willing to give it up because she knew that that was the right thing to do and this of course goes back to the kak of Esther that's why she was able to be M over this Dove over this over over this bear the the mid the old mid that we see and pour him and what lies behind it is the idea of selfish focusing on myself my personal interests instead of helping someone else and who is the who is the superhero that was able to save us who was the one that put on the red cape and was able to get us out the one that was the one that Holy only focused on one thing on what I could do to help someone else to help y to help CL to help someone else even if it came at the of myself an absolute sacrifice and again we're not talking about sacrifice of life we're talking about sacrifice of Z of myself of who I am that's that's that's that's the level that we have to take and it makes oh so much sense when we look at all the Mitzvah in over and over again every Mitzvah of course we know only focus on the of a I don't have to talk about one after the other the even writes don't give it to your best friend that's not what is about give it to the guy you don't like that's the that's the real M give it to that neighbor that bothers you give it to that person that you really have a chip on your shoulder that person that family member you haven't spoken to in three months that's the person you should be giving M because this is the time of n of being M of yourself of giving up of yourself to give to someone else to be able to focus on someone else instead of focusing on yourself get off your agendas and start giving over to someone else we know that if anyone goes ahead and stretches out his hand you're supposed to give him usually during the whole year there's an in to make a you should pay attention first about 10 20% but besides that there's also need to check before you give Stucker to a certain extent not don't overcheck because you know when you're giving Myer money you're gab Stucker you have to be you have to take a you have to take responsibility for your money you can't just give it away to some to some some guy who's going to stop and take take another take another drink or use it on drugs you have to make sure it's going to be used for the proper purposes no such because if we know in this world to be able to give to anyone who asks then in the upper worlds will give to anyone who asks this is the time as the writes with this we finish of it's a any that was upon you this is the time to ask that to turn it around turn it around if we give to everyone will give whatever we request it's a time with no it's a time when we just give as I love you I love you you're just you're another Jew and we care about you you're my brother I don't make anyon if I'm related to you then you know I'm going to help you it doesn't make a difference why or how or if it's just going to be done and that's what we do on puim to be able to give in any type of situation and with that we'll be able to be any type of that happens we'll be able to apply of course with this we understand in our current events the dove that is the source of all our problems as we all know the all of these terrorists are supported by AK by one and only person that big Dove Persia persas are the ones that behind everything Iran is the problem that's behind everything that we're surrounded by they're the ones who are dedicated to the absolute destruction of B Israel as I one time heard that one of the person people say there's one thing that we agree with with with uh with the med there's one thing we agree we both agree there's no such thing as a two-state solution that's we both agree it's a question of all or nothing that's what that's what they're and their focus is only in the absolute destruction of us and that's why they're supporting everything that can do the one time it's a time of let's take a turn let's try make a switch let's go and make the come and that comes only yes and that's the that's all over the place here and to work together to be able to give to be able to give as much as you can without making to be able to look at your friend and to be able to see what can I do that new guy that walks into the sh to give him a nice to give him a nice Pat of the back to say hello to be able to go that guy that you didn't like or that you don't like or that you've had a chip on your shoulder for a long time it's time to make amends it's time to make things change and if you do that then we'll be able to reach the the K that we're supposed to get on this day more than just saying it but to live it the K of have a PO
