THIS Mindset Turns Ordinary Lives Into Masterpieces

Shalom. This is the third Shia in the series of Evid Hashem. The first one was the master blueprint of an Hashem. Last week we spoke about my mission in Kali Isil before the arrival of Mashiach. This year the third one is entitled the manufacturer. Let me tell you where I'm coming from. There is a ma of the famous Mash of the Mir in Europe. It's if you want to look it up, it's dimema number. But b asks an incredible question I think which is so topical which is so relevant a profound question really about the mitzvah of bikurim. What happens to the mitzvah of the first fruits that a person has. He goes down into the fields and he sees sees that the grapes are ripening they're coming out or the olives or the dates or the figs whatever they're coming out and he ties a bendal around them and he calls them these are my bikurim these are my first fruits. Then when everybody in the community is ready, they all come together maybe in the village square and someone announces let's go up to and bring our first fruits and it's a tremendous celebration inside the the village. Everybody comes up together and they make their way towards usim and there's an ox in front of them with decorated with olive branches around him and there's a flute is playing. It's a tremendous khaga, a great celebration. They come towards us shalim with their baskets of their their pus inside them. Then as they come towards you anal, the people of the citizens, the residents would come out and say an people come from welcome to they came to us. They were there decoration. There was a tremendous celebration going on. They eventually they come into the B mikd and the are singing beautiful tune of the of the let me just add I have a friend a close friend who's the mash of moh yeshiva fishman he once told me that you know the tune which we sing by lie that actually came from the bik beautiful he told me once he's a le himself he said these are the tunes which they sang they would sing you would approach the cyain and the cyain would take the basket of the fruits in the side and he would do tanufa wave it be in front and behind and then to the side and there were gollas there were doubves which were standing there which were on top of the baskets and the doves flew out and then you stand in front of the coen and you make this statement it's in paras an incredible statement which you make in front of the coen when you bring your puin beautiful words it's in paras paraso let me read out towards you you come in to the cen The coin takes the basket with your fruits and say and this is what you declare in front of the coin with your there refers to who decided to try and extinguish and and remove all of in the end went down with his family to mitim for a few years and there they became incredibly powerful nation. This all the statement that you say in front of the and the persecuted us and they afflicted us and they gave us very bitter servitude as you know as we cried out heard our voices. He saw our affliction and our enormous effort which we made and the pressure that we were working under the declaration that you say with he took us out to the 10 plagues of all the wonders inside the he brought me eventually to live in. And he gave me this land. This is the land which you get the land flowing with milk and honey. I thank you. I brought my pay and you should be overjoyed in all the good that you were given. Beautiful, beautiful celebration here from the time that he puts a little bendle around the fruit until he comes up to you. An enormous celebration with the flute and the music and the dancing and everything coming forward with the living singing. asks the following question. And how much do you actually bring? You said this morning there is no limit. There's no size to what you must bring. There's no there's no given time according to the Torah. You can bring one grape, one fig. Can you imagine one olive in a basket? You're not to bring more than one one thing. Thei says around that a person should really bring a 60th but says how can you possibly come forward with your basket of fruit with just one date inside one fig inside. It's almost like a a disgrace. No come come with if you're bringing something bring something magnificent being a large you're not one. Can you imagine one grape? This is my first olive which came out. This is my first um piece of corn, the which came out. The first sheath of corn which came out. This is the first of what I have and alto you're not more to bring more than that. Unbelievable point. Why don't you bring much more says from here we learn a beautiful claw material. What is much more important is what your reaction is. If you manufacture something from the product that you have, meaning what you're given, you must have a product from it. A laborer, a worker just works with what he has. He doesn't make anything from a manufacturer looks at the raw materials and he makes them. He takes the wood and he makes a bench from it or he makes a table, a cupboard from a manufacturer has a product says as follows. That's a beautiful point in the Torah. It's not so important how much you receive. What you receive is something else. last minute what you have to do is react your tova how you react to the gifts that you're given in life it's a beautiful point one day to one fig unbelievable point no the reaction is the most important the manufacturer is the most important thing not so much the labor of the worker what you produce from what you have meaning you make the celebration over one date of one olive that's all you're required to do how much you receive is but your avoid our personal individual efforts are how you react to what you're given That I think is the true evid hashem. That is the point which I'd like to bring out. We'll bring certain proofs behind it all but that's the essence here. The bim is teaching us says yamim how you react to the gifts that you receive the raw materials what you do with the raw materials. I remember before I was married as a young boy when I lived in England. I was about 15 or 16 years old and about came into our community from a place called Worcester in the middle of the English Midlands. Then it's a place where there was really no Jewish people at all. Lovely person, very tall person. His name was Peter. Peter came into the community and he's a lovely person. My my parents would drew him closer where McCarthy actually when he went to get married, he went from our house. I remember when he got married, a big tall man, a beautiful person, a real English gentleman he was. And he married a girl from France, from Paris. Her name was Vivien. And they got married, I remember, and they lived in our community. And I went round occasionally on Shabas to to eat by them on Shabbas morning to on Shabas. Then one day, Vivien's father turned up to spend Shabas with a young couple. He was an enormous man that Peter and Vivian were very tall, over six feet tall, both of them. And in in came Vivian's father, big French with a big mustache and big eyes and enormous big hands. And he sat next to me in sh. And I happened, I don't know why, but I turned around to I said to him, you know, welcome here. What do you do in France? Say turned around to me and said to me, you know what I do? I hunt crocodiles. You hear such a thing. I hunt crocodiles. You have to make a panosa somehow. He said, that's my panosa. What do you do with it? He said, "Aha, what I have I I sell the skins and from there the manufacturer makes a fortune out of uh crocodile shoes, crocodile handbags, crocodile, they make something from the skins they use it. What I get from it is a certain amount of money, but the real money is from the manufacturer. What he does with it? You see the point I'm making out here? Not so much what the war materials are. The war materials are quite expensive. Crocodile skin, I don't know how he manages to capture them. He goes into the jungle maybe in Africa and then hunts the crocodiles. Then he sells the skin. I could I remember I couldn't such an enormous man if I was a crocodile I'd be scared of this man a big man and he hunts them and he sends sells the skin to the manufacturer the real money he told me comes from the manufacturer the crocodile bag or crocodile skin shoes or something are very very expensive here the same point my boy say maybe from listen to these words if you have aim open up to ku zion chapter 116 inim I'd like to read it out to you let me show you the same concept cept of the manufacturer, what you do with your product from the lifetime profile of David. Take a look, I loved you. I love me because you heard my voice when I supplicated and I and I begged you and I appeased you. Then you heard my voice. You put he put his ear to me when I called out to him. You know why? I had a life where I was overwhelmed by pangs of death and the the limit the confines of the grave mammoth found me. I had a tremendously difficult life. [snorts] I had tremendous difficulties in life. David had a very very difficult life indeed. I remember until the age of 18, David Aamelik was considered by the family to be a mamza, an illegitimate child. You remember the the episode in Shil when Schmill was sent down to Beva to find a new king after Shaw and he went to ask Yishi in Bereva who was I think the outbased in there and he asked him to look at his sons and each one was told this is not the future king. Eventually man said to tell me is there another son? He said there is another son in the field but we don't talk about him. was rejected by I was considered as an illegitimate child. They sent me out into the fields. They hoped a lion would trample me and I survived. They brought him in and then a college said, "This is Zer. This is the one. He has beautiful eyes. He's the one I'm looking for as a king." David was always oppressed. When he became king, eventually he killed Golius. And then he began a whole period in his life of being a fugitive, running away from shore. He had 3,000 soldiers hunting him. And it was enormous. Every place he went, Shaw came after him and hunted him and he managed to escape. I remember this one episode in particular. When he left Y Shalim, he was supposed to come and play music in front of Shaw onesh. And he didn't turn up because he was scared that maybe Shaw wanted to kill him. And he arranged with David to shoot certain arrows beyond a certain rock and it would be a message if David should flee or David should come back into Shalim or not. And Jonasan shot the beyond the rock and it was a sign that he had to flee. David had to flee and he went to a place called Noiv which was a city of the kohhanim. When he arrived there se kazal Davidid was in a situation of bulmas. Bulmas means almost about to die of starvation. Yonison had forgotten to give him any food say for there we learn when someone leaves your house you should always give them food. Say yon forgot to give and he ate from the leim haponim which was really the bread of the kohanim. He wasn't a coin. He was his but he was about to stop. He had no choice. He was starving to death. He had to eat. And then he ran away to different places. He went to Gat. I remember this one particular scene. It's almost like cat and mouse being pursued around a mountain. Do it on one side and sh and the men running around and eventually he ran down to to to a cave in ai. Unbelievable difficulties he had. His son Abalam tried to kill him and he had to run up the hills of howim barefoot. Tremendous difficulties. I know myself I once went through a very difficult period in my life. My father Oliver Shalom had died and I wasn't yet married. It was a very difficult period in my life before I got married and a close friend of mine Hagraden who now is a wash co in in Los Angeles he turned around to me said yan if it's so hard why don't you learn through alf learn through and see the difficulties which it gave me tremendous and as I was learning it through I matched episodes of David's life with a different perim and I learned a tremendous it gave me tremendous David had a very difficult time and this is what he's saying here I called out to shame save me. Save my life. These are all the difficulties. Looks after those who are who are simple. I was I was a poor man and he saved me. All the here the difficulties. Let me have peace of mind. Has been very kind to me. I'm up to you save me from death from crying he cried so much interesting when he was running away from sh all different places Sha and his and his soldiers never found him one person did Yonison came and found him you remember the episode in the forest of clay y when he bought him food Jonison found him again but otherwise he had nothing he was worn out he was crying he was finished he was exhausted and fatigued a man on the run a fugitive I was a very poor man afflicted and everybody is not to be trusted. I can't trust anybody. Why did I bring you this pay until is all the raw materials which David Dovid had to work with in life. This is a little bit like the crocodile skin if you know what I mean. This is a little bit like the bulim. These are the circumstances that David Dovid was put into. Now listen to the manufacturer coming out. It's interesting in halal we divide this chapter into two until is one chapter and then a new chapter here is the reaction here is the result of Davidid here's a manufacturer coming out more what can I possibly give back to all the kindness he gave me here the point and this is what baby wen brings out a phenomenal manufacturer here the circumstance that he didn't turn man and said help me give me more no what can I pay back what can I his beautiful how can of all the kindness that he gave me and he goes on to say no I am a servant to towards you I got a struggle there is the point I wanted to bring out in tremendous stress and great difficulties here you have it and why is it separated the poe I think for the following reason that when you say halal you're given the raw material the circumstances now stop make a break now come on to the lesson the lesson from the man the product of Davidid is how can I pay back not what I ask for not so much that I'm mak something. No, it's not that. What do I how can I return all the kindness that you've given to? That's what David reacted to. Magnificent manufacturer here. No, this is the man standing in front of the coen with his one fruit of just one one grape. Yeah, but look what I have. This is thy product which I'm giving. How I react to my circumstances. I think that's the reason why halal is divided up. The reaction is crucial and we'll come on to it later on in this. That's the point. Let's move from the the the the one grape in the basket in front of the crime from the quartal skins to David is the answer which I wanted to bring out to you. Here is the real manufacturer the e hashem which comes out what you do with the circumstances that you enli not complain look how hard I had it. No no no he did have it hard but the reaction is how can I pay back? How can I return all the favors that he's done for me? What I have the more and I used it to my best as I could a servant of a college. Let's take it further. Who is the grand manufacturer? The grand master manufacturer I think in all of Khalisa. Who is it? Who is the person? Who is the the the prototype? Do was a protype? The original is of course avoided to it. The third day of Bruce Miller. No, he was in unbelievable pain. No. The third day I remember when we had our first son. On the third day, my wife after the third day after bismillah, my wife said, "Goodness, I don't know if he's with us anymore." The child never moved at all. Third day is very painful. He saw three three Arabs coming in. He jumped up and ran by yah and he ran to do everything. His reaction know that is here's the man the product what he does with the circumstances that he's in he made hashem's name popular. I think the ultimate test of course is when it came to the aada the end of this week's para keshb who gave a mina the most wonderful child the rashbah describes in the chas that was minoshi the most excellent the most refined the most perfect of all human beings the perfect human species was in looks in behavior in potential in qualities in person he was the perfect perfect child That's maybe one of the reasons why the whole world became full of when Yets was born. The joy joy he was an exceptional child and he was given at the age of 100. He waited over 100 years to have a child and so as you know was 90 years old then to man make a sacrifice of him and turn around and said as follows you you gave him to me you want him back so I'll give him back to you and he took him on to Maria and was about to sh him if you have a chance over Shabas take a look at the yalut shimi on the time of the incredible scene I remember used to describe had the scene to us. He was standing there with a knife and he was pouring tears from his eyes looking up to Sham. Where do you want me to cut him? You gave him to me and now you want to take him back. How should I how should I deliver him back to you? There was no complaint that I had to give him back. You want him back, I'll give you back as a sacrifice. Here's the here's the manufacturer. Here's the unbelievable reaction to the circumstances that he was put into. Not so much what he had, but he's giving back. No, there's a beautiful point here. Amo was the original manufacturer. He made something of whatever the product was. He gave me a child. You take him back. Take him back. He's not my child. No, this is the point really which we're bringing out. There's a in I brought it at different times. I think this is so relevant at this point. Says the what does a good guest say? Someone comes to your table and he's a wonderful guest. How much meat the the the host gave me. How much wine he gave me. is how many delicacies chocolate mousse ice cream at the end of the meal and all that the host has done is all for me. That's a wonderful wonderful guest. Everything he does, he notices everything. He sees all the detail. No, he notices everything. What does a bad rotten guest turn around and say? I don't Was it fish? Was it schnitle? Was it meat? I don't know what it was piece of something. I drank a cup. It was something wet. I don't know. Was it flat Coca-Cola? Was it wine? I don't know what it was. It was something flat. Something wet. And everything that he's done is not for me. It's not for me. It's all for his family. Nothing was done for me at all. That's the the I suppose you could say something that there's one a good a bad and the ugly. The good guest is the bad one is one who turns around and said nothing special for me. The ugly one I think would be a real cynic. And he would turn around and say, "A real ugly guest." Turns around and says, "You know who the sadic is here? It's me." You know why? Because if I wouldn't have been at the table, he would have thrown it all out. So I prevented bashas and he wasted the food. That's a real cynic, a nasty person. I'm the sadic here because at least I ate some of the food. He would have thrown it in the garbage otherwise. Hear the point. The ayat recognizes everything. This was meat. This was wine. This was chocolate mousse. The doesn't even see what it is. And he says everything was just a something something. I don't know what it was and he never did anything for me. It was all for the family. That rais is the definition of the laborer or the manufacturer. The labor of the worker takes what he has and he uses it say the manufacturer has a product. He comes out with something. No. Isn't that the beauty behind it all? The beauty is says in this who is the guest? You and I are guests here. Who is the host? The host is everything. Everything that the Almighty has done has done for me. No, there it is. There's the manufacturer with his product which comes out. That's the most beautiful point. I think that's the lesson of the Hashem. Not so much what you're asking for, but how we act to the situation. That's you want the child back. I'll give it back to you. That's the perfect guest, the good guest. The good guest recognizes everything. It's all for me. That's the which I'd like to bring out here. I think that's the message. If you've ever looked at any of the stories of the GDI, you'll notice they are all experts in this quality of being a manufacturer making a product from what they given in life. Most beautiful, beautiful stories about them. Let me share one or two with you which made such an impression on me. I remember the time when it happened that the wife of had died and he was sitting shiver with all his sons. All of them were great in and turned around and said as follows. Listen to this line of the man when he lost his wife. He turned around and said usually when people sit sh they say no meaning gave me took away said what do people emphasize hashem took away my wife or me said no not me I don't say that what I had as a wife I took him away it wasn't my responsibility it was hashem's nama no but what he gave me as a wife that's what I emphasize what I had as a wife isn't that the mosh Isn't that the manufacturer? What I appreciate what I was given. That's the point. And that's the most beautiful point here. That is the nature of the manufacturer. What I what I had that's the coming out. Listen to this beautiful story. I remember the has sped him, excuse me, has sped him for aim. I think his cousin, but Mayor Grinman said the following story. But had a sister who know Elena was an almana, a young almana. Her name was Robertson Baam. She lived on the street on Bashbam in the same street. Her husband Bazam was an outstanding tam son-in-law of the stipler's brother-in-law and he died young and she was left as a widow with a house full of children. Every air of Shabas evidently Babe would go and visit his sister and sit with her and schmoo with her for a few minutes. One day of Shabas he walked into the house and took off his jacket and gave it to his sister. His sister took the jacket and noticed inside a pocket there was an empty plastic sandwich bag. She took it out and threw it in the garbage. >> [clears throat] >> said to her, "Why do you do that for?" He said, "You," she said, "you don't need it." He said, "I do need it." She said to him, "What do you I need it. Put it back in my pocket." She pushed him and he was reluctant to say what it was. And eventually, why do you need the plastic bag in your pocket? But turned around to said as follows. Listen to these words of the autumn God. He said as follows. 25 years ago, I think he said it was 20 25 years ago, I had a stroke and I my arm was paralyzed. I was unable to put my arm in my my hand in my pocket. I couldn't do that. Then the bonishes gave me wafur sha and now I can do that. I can now put my hand in my pocket. But I was concerned that maybe I'll forget the mufur sha that I had. So I kept in my pocket a plastic bag. Whenever I put my hand in my pocket I feel the bag and I remember I can't forget. No that he gave me a fool. I don't forget. I can now put my hand in my pocket and therefore it reminds me of what happened to me. That's why I knew the plastic is that there's a manufacturer. That's a product coming out. No. doing something which react to react to the situation that you're in. That's the Hashem which I'd like to bring out which I think is the result of this. It's the man standing in front of the co with a grape. No, it's the crocodile manufacturer who takes the say no. It's the same thing coming out. It's the mo at the time of the all the same point here. Let me just share something of personal which I remember myself so well which I I [laughter] don't know I'm not on that level at all but I just want to say something which I remember so clearly when I was the yeshiva bachel so about five of us decided the bay man in the summer would go down and work on a kibuts in the nega we went to work on a kibutz on a negera and they gave us the most impossible task to do I don't know if you know when they grow melons they grow them in long plastic rows and in order to keep the plastic on they have something called a melon hoop a hoop goes over and on the on the hoop you put the plastic. So all the melons had been reaped. The plastic was taken away and they wanted all the hoops to be picked up. There are a few thousand of them in the field, you know. So we walked around bending down in the boiling heat in the middle of a after tisha and it was impossible. We were finished. We were dropping. We were sweating every minute bending down picking up the hoop. Some of them were stiff. I remember picking it up with a few friends. It was terrible. It was an awful job. Eventually someone after about 2 hours someone came down with uh some cold drinks and really ice cold drinks. I stood there holding the drink and I thought to myself, "No way. This is not a normal bra. This ba has to be a special ba. I can still remember standing in the field and I screamed out and drank the liquid. It was like I don't know. It was like from Ghana. I I reacted. I thought to I can still remember myself standing there in the field screaming out Shakon. Oh Hashem, we have cold drinks." And it was a I was a little man a little manufacturer but I made something of the drink. Now isn't that the point? Not so much what you have but what the circumstances that you make of it. Therefore, let me come to some sort of conclusion what I'd like to bring out to you. It appears to me as we mentioned you can either be a laborer and a worker and simply work with the items or you can be a manufacturer and the circumstances that you're in you make a product from it. That's the point I wanted to bring and that's an evashem. I'd like to give you two lists. One is something that you're born with which you're given at birth and those that you receive in lifetime. I want to bring the difference between a labor and a worker and a manufacturer. Everyone who's born is given the power of speech. No, you given the power of speech. You can talk. A labor worker natters away and chatters and I don't know talks. I remember when I was in England, I could never get over the point of the swear words which the non-Jews use. They continue using swear words. They use their mouth to say swear words, whatever it was. What does a manufacturer do with his speech? He dabs beautifully. He gives a compliment. He says something nice or something. No, there you have it. A labor or manufacturer. You're given the power of the eyes. No, you can see Hashem at birth. You're given the sight. What do you do your eyes for? And they used to say in England, either you can use it for the greeneyed monster. I saw something somebody has and I want it myself. The jealousy and the ka. You can use your eyes for that. Or you can have [snorts] an eye in toven. No, look at something with a good eye. something with a good eye. Look at something good. Appreciate what you have. No. Given a mind. What do you fill your mind with? Fabulous dreams of of making wealth and everything of of tremendous fantasy dreams that you have. You use your mind maybe to to think about the the kindness of Akales has given you. No, this is really the point. Take a little bit further. I don't know how much we can say this but uh even a heart. No, what do you do with the heart? You hold the grudge inside the heart and they're sinner or you sinner believe or you have a subs. These are points which you have no you're given as a gift. I suppose the greatest expression of it is a which you say several times a day after coming out of the bathroom. No, the reaction of being able to use the bathroom that is everything that you're given by natural. Now let's a little bit more objective. What are the things which you're gifted with and how you react to it? You're gifted with food. No, they give you food. What can you do with food? You can do many things with you can gobble it down and mash just nash away and you never make a baka or you use it in order to to give yourself strength and you make a beautiful baka behind it. I mentioned on a previous occasion once but it's a magnificent story I think which my wife and I once went to. We went to the Galileo for one evening and we stayed in the Ka Hotel right next to the Canerit. It was a beautiful evening, I remember. And uh as we walked into the dining room, we saw a magnificent banquet laid out in front of us, a beautiful banquet. And evidently, there was something very special going on. We turn around and asked the waiter, "What's going on?" He said, "The hotel tonight is being taken over by a certain organization." And they asked us to make a banquet. Since you are the guests here, you can sit down and enjoy the food as well. It's all on our expense, whatever it is, cuz this is what's being provided tonight in the hotel. So we sat down and my wife sm we smiled at each other thought what a gift we came for a night and we being entertained to a banquet and the food was magnificent magnificent food. You can see all the tables laid out. We sat there and we had the first course and then the organization people came in. No one had a kapal on. They were mixed together. The women were not dressed so properly. I remember they sat down at the table. I think it was about 3 minutes it took them to gobble up and finish everything on the tables. I remember my wife turned around to me and said to me as follows, Jonas, let's go out. I have no appetite anymore. It was awful to see. They just took it and gobbled it down and and there was no braha made. Nothing was said. No one ever showed them how to make a ba. I'm not blaming them, but it looked awful. No, you're given food. Do you make a beautiful braha or do you not make a beautiful ba? No, you're given money in life. What do you do with the money which you have in life? Do you just squander it and say, you know, I have $100, I want $200. I given a million, I want 200. What do you do with it? What's your reaction to money? Or do you use your money for stock and no, you give or give with your money? You hear the point? You're given a partner in life, a husband or wife. What is a husband? A husband is a money maker or the wife is a shifra, a handmmaid. Or is your intention when you find a partner to build a bas? No. Isn't that the point? What is the wife for? Is she a shipra a maid or is a husband the money maker or is it a home which you you make kadusha from? You hear the point I'm making? You're given shabas and y what shabas and y for? For food and for sleeping and for getting dressed nicely or is you hear the point? You can be a laborer or you can be a manufacturer. You're given time. No, a laborer and a worker kills time. Now what I do with my time? I have a lot of time. Watch television. I watch movies. Whatever. What do you do with your time? Is your time spent well? Is your time helping people? Time learning. What do you do with your time which you're given? You hear the point? You can be a labor or worker or you can be a manufacturer of the product that you're given and make a product out of what you're given. I think that's an evid hashem. I would like to make a suggestion. Who is the best of all manufacturer in the world? Who is the real genuine manufacturer in our times? In history will be said the grandmaster may in our times who is the greatest manufacturer we have I think it's the listen to these words the description which gives to an asal she pays him back good not bad all the days of her life. Please tell me what does it mean gamalasu means to pay him back since when is a woman a debtor? She owes money to people. Why the word paying back? Who is she paying back? What does she have to pay? She takes debts. She hasn't got any debts. I think the answer is as follows. Who is she paying back? She's paying back her parents or she's paying back her husband. She feels that she's a debtor. She's not. But that's the greatness of analas. I've been given so much by my family or by my husband. I must give back. Why does it say if it's not? I think the answer is as follows. Sometimes a woman is so exhausted and worn out and she's spent out. She can't give good but she doesn't give bad. That's the point. It's maybe she can't give but it's never bad. If she can't if she can it's good. If she can't give good it's not bad. There is the original man. There is a perfect manufacturer in front of her. I think that is the nature that a woman does in her home for her husband for her children for her family preparing everything and all the work which she does besides very often going out to work as well. There you have it. She feels as if she's a debtor. She's not. But I must pay back my family. I must pay back people. All that I I must pay back. All I've been given, she feels like she's a balas, but she's not. And that's the greatest. That's the greatest manufacturer. She's not a laborer. She's not a worker. She's a manufacturer. I remember reading once about the Brisco. The brisk rov was once talking to somebody in his living room about a concept I think of hashkafer something to do with noish I don't remember what it was I saw it in the book by raela about the briskov I was tell impressed by the story brisk was talking to this person as he was talking to this person I don't I think it was a bach or something discussing with him this concept in hashka a rashisha a very well-known rashisha in line came to the house and wanted to say over his she to the viscarov a certain pilp and he was standing at the door and he saw the bisc was talking. He went inside the kitchen and asked, "How long is he going to be talking to this person for?" So the children said, "I don't know. He's talking to somebody at the moment." Says, "I can't wait." And he was very impatient. He was walking backwards and forwards. He's talking to somebody just about I have a pilpad to say him over. And he got very impatient and angry. And he said, "How long? How long?" And he said, "I can't wait anymore." And walked out the house. Eventually when the man had finished talk when the Biskar had stopped talking to the to the bach whoever it was he asked him who was that what was he want here so the the children said he came to tell he said but I was talking tora no hear the point I was talking to to somebody already he has to this is also hashka is also I wanted to mention that point it's not it's not it's not a people in this is also the hashka is also to understand this point I am anashem And I try to be a manufacturer of the product which I'm given of the raw materials that I have at my at my at my expert at my um ability what I have in front of me. That's the point which I have in order to finish the shia. I'd like to bring you back to David and this let's come back to the chapter again. Take a look again at the chapter David says of all the circumstances we mentioned. Where do you know the words hashem? Do you remember we said about hashem? He made hashem's name very popular. I feel as if I have an oath on my head, a vow on my head. The value of these people who are manufacturers who say they are extremely valuable. They are when they die and they go to this is my ev this is my manufacturer. This is a person who I treasure so much said honor I am your servant. The outcome of this why did David repeat himself what does he mean by this I saw boy say in a safer I don't know who it is his name is was mayor vice he wrote a safer onim called mayor it's a beautiful safe onim he answers as follows I think it's a beautiful point David said and abd he quoted David Amelik's great great grandmother Woose Hamo, you remember the episode when W appeared in front of Boaz. So W said as follows. Woose said to Boaz, you've shown such I am only one of your maidens here. Why you showed such favor? Bo has said to Roose, "No, you can stay here and I'm only one of your maidervants." By law say, and Bo said, "No, no, no. You're not one. You are going to be one of the mothers of Cloud Israel," said Boaz to us. You means here it says with a H, but it's with an alab. Lo, that's not true. You are not a simple maidervant. Where does it come out? When eventually W came to the bedside where Baz was sleeping at night and he asked her who are you who are you who came and buzz was shaken up she said I am your handmade and you should spread your blanket over your handmade for you are my redeemer what's going on here said as follows I am only a simple handmade but I am You told me the word say is Boaz told her you will become one of the im of answered and said one minute the why would I be one of the im said no you will be the malus you will be the mother of malus someone like you and that's what means said I am only a handmade but you told me I am I more than that from there you learn there was tremendous ability inside was to become from a handmmaid to become maybe that's what this may says in his perish as follows I'm just a simple person I was considered as a mamza when I grew up but I am I am a descendant of this great lady meaning who was given the opportunity to become the mother of mus what do we learn from here was saying I am only a simple person but in reality I come from somebody called who used her circumstances to the best advantage And she became she was devoted to normi and she became as you know the great the she actually sat in the bikings down made a special seat I don't know how old she must have been but she saw shame becoming the king and sat in the bikosh unbelievable point from her circumstances she became something very very special what do you see from this the circumstances that David had in life he used them as a catalyst to move on to move on his position from being a simple eved to becoming a descendant of Hamovia and that's why he says I come from that lady who said the catalyst was the circumstances of life that he was put through the difficulties that he had as we said the product the manufactur which came out I think that is the lesson which we take from here became something quite unique quite unique where's the proof from it the proof I think comes by side Today's air of Shabas parasa on Shabas morning we will say nishmas as you know I've mentioned previously nishmas is something like a catalyst it brings you back to where you're supposed to be thinking after the whole week you spent a week on emails you spent a week in the bank you spent a week making money whatever it was you're driving here and there eventually you say and you answer we can't thank you enough right at the very end we mention Why is brought in at the end of why changed? You remember he became somebody quite unique when cast his eyes on him in BVA and said this is an adi. This is someone who looks like an asab. He's red. He's worried. He's he he's he's a wy person. He looks like an adi a wild person said no no no. This is not something he has wonderful eyes. He's going to listen to the of the Sanhedrin. He's something very special. Dobit changed and became something unique. I'm suggesting the reason why Dobbit is mentioned at the end of Nishmas. Here's the catalyst. Here's the manufacturer. He came out and he produced something from his life. He became somebody quite unique. He worked on himself. He was the the from the praises that he sang. But there we have David coming out from something that I think is the reason why we say later on in just before All of us are duty bound. Every human being, not just Jewish people, any person at all to praise and uplift and glorify you. I'll call the why do we mention more than anybody else even more than what said I am duty bound to say it means as follows. Everybody must have their own autobiography of a manufacturer of a product. I must work on myself. I must use the circumstances just like even more than David dol did with his life. I must do even alcohol over more than what David do. I must have my own autobiography of I must have my list of yokenoid when I reach the age of 120. I must have a product here. I must have come out with something with the circumstances that I have. boy say it's a long sheer but I wanted to end perhaps with a certain two or threees and points of advice which I hope would help you to become a manufacturer and I thought of a few ideas a few points which maybe will give you a point of direction in opportunity maybe before davening do the following close your eyes and breathe in very deeply once [snorts] like this breathe in and think of something that you really recognize and a college helped you with something. Either you were sick once or you found a zeb or something you really owe a tremendous amount of depth and appreciation to think of something. Breathe in and let the mood let that thought go flood your mind. [snorts] Breathe in through your nose and then slowly exhale the air. Do that two or three times. Think of something different of which you yourself can become a manufacturer in your life. Either once maybe you did something wrong, ancologist will let you do chuva, maybe you were sick once, maybe you had a great difficulty. Think of one or two things. Breathe in with your nose. Hold it. Think about it and breathe out. Then another one, two or three. Do that every single time in davening before you say you say. Now before you come to midim stop breathe in think of something close your eyes let it flood your mind take another idea maybe five or six I don't know as much as you want and then say midm then midm will become a personal point of manufacturer for you you did something with mimm it's not just a chant something which the sid says it's your own everything you've done for me it becomes a product from your life no it becomes but you must think it out beforehand these are point which I'm going to say and every time you before you say my stop a minute breathe in think of the flood your mind and another point do that before and you'll see it makes a tremendous difference second suggestion I would like to suggest is you have to learn 100 by heart you must have it ready on your lips when something happens in the course of the day I don't Yesterday I was driving around my back bet. This is what happened to me. I was driving along. A 15year-old girl walked right in front of my car staring up at the sky. She didn't look right or left. I almost ran her over. I couldn't believe it. She just lifted her head up and walked across the road without even looking. Anyway, I almost ran her over. I stopped the car and I said, "Mo, when something like that happens, stop. You almost ran someone over." You didn't. You didn't go through an Arab village if you're driving with ways. No, very often. You've arrived safely on a trip where you came from. Something good happened. You heard of a Malva. Says Malida quietly. Whisper it. Don't announce it. The more quiet it is, the more sincere it is. The more senu it is. No one has to know. Just whis. It's a private conversation of a manufacturer to you'll see it works. It makes a difference. Whatever it is, even though it's only a grape, an olive, I don't know, a fig, something small, something which made a difference to you. You came home safely. Something stop and say maid. soda. But don't rush it. Say it quietly to yourself. Just whisper the words out. You'll become a manufacturer. It makes the product from what you happened in your life. You recognize the muzzle top or whatever the good thing happened. Whatever it was, you can say it five or six or 10 times a day. Just say it quietly and you become a manufacturer. And if you can't do that, then at least say react. You're becoming a manufacturer product. That's anem. It's the moshiv. How can I reply? How can I return back all that I have? That I think is the theme of a manufacturer. He has a product from things. When it comes to the end of his life, what happens? These type of people are great and they are honorable when they come after 120 years. You made something of it. Mov is a pay by itself. Even though it's one pay inside, it's not. It comes after the circumstances. That's the date. That's a fig which we're talking about. That's the crocodile manufacturer who takes something with the crocodiles again. That's David with the circumstances. Let's go through. That's aw standing at doing the arcada. That's the standing in front of the the guest declaring something and all the gifts which you're given beautiful stories which I told you myself in the melon melon hoops. Try and become a manufacturer. What you're given naturally and those things which you're gifted with during the you'll become a manufacturer in ease. That's the point. Who's the best of all? I in my circumstance I would believe Anas is she always feels she's a debtor. She never stops giving. The alltime giver always giving something that's a hash which is coming out here claimed that he was he came from this famous woman. She was the I'm only I'm from the that's the point which she was bringing out learn by heart stop a minute before maidim and breathe in three or four times think of something personal and then all of a sudden maiden becomes a personal testimonial there's your product from your manufacturer those the circumstances that you have I wish you all a good chabas we should all be to become for habas for cold tooth.
