[00:00:00] Speaker A: Blast off. We are in the art scroll, page 61. Thank you. In the Feldheim Green, we are page 20 Davkhaf. The second paragraph says the Ramchal, even though it says Halama Zedoyme. What is this? Comparable to somebody who already has left. As we said yesterday, that somebody who is in denial don't even notice. I am lying. You're in dark, you don't even know. We need to ask from someone who has already left prison. His yeti hara has not trapped him, but he has escaped. He has gotten out. So he says, Heim rowim hames. They see the truth. Because someone who's blind and someone who's dark. I don't know where to go. I need someone to tell me how to go. Ha lamaze doma. The famous example is Legan Hamavucha, which, if you want to look this up, it's the labyrinth, a Villa Pisani. I think it's in Italy. [00:01:24] Speaker B: Nah, that's what he's referring to specifically. [00:01:27] Speaker A: That's what I heard. [00:01:28] Speaker B: Wow. [00:01:31] Speaker A: So you'll look at this Lagan Hamavucha. I'll send it out to everybody. Laganvucha. This is a maze. It's a garden. That is confusing. Hanatu, a labyrinth. Hanatua Litzhok. It's for a gain. Hayadua, Eitzel, Asarim. That is known by the chash of the nobility, Shanatiya, Sasu. Now listen to this. The ramchal is. Every word in the ramchal is, as the goyim says, every word. Every word is. It's like a rishon. Every word. It's like rashi. Every word. The Ramchazat shastam. Giving an example. To be cute. To give an example. He's saying that there are rows of getting somewhere. B', naim, shevilim, rabne, vuchum, aravim. It's all mixed up like a maze, so you can't tell the difference. To you, it seems that this is just like that. This and that are just the same. The goal is to get to this tower, to this, this gazebo. They're identical. Some bring you away and some bring you close. As Ramchal later is going to say. A person can be confused to think that a mitzvah is an avera and aveira is a mitzvah, he says. And Hasidas. A person needs to ask somebody. A person needs to ask someone who's already risen above the shvilim, these roads, someone who's already there. And he can say, go over here, go over here. Because when you're in there, you could swear, you could swear, you could promise, you could know. What do you mean? This is good for me. This is good for me. This is good for me. But it could be that that path is actually taking you further away. And that's what he says. Once you're in it, you have no idea whether you're on the right path or whether you're not. Kikulam shavim. They're identical. Vain heifers, Benim la aina rosamund. They're identical. It feels like it, it smells like it. It appears like that. Unless you've already been there and you know it and you reached the destination. Here we listen to this. Listen to the ramchal. Thank you, Hashem for the Ramchal to teach us this. We're only four minutes in, by the way. Hine hoimid kfar lach sadra. Somebody who's already standing on there. He sees it all. He knows what's Ms. And he knows what's a lie. He could tell you go on this path, don't go on that path. Here we go. Listen to the diak that he says twice. He doesn't say. He says, mi shertza lahamenlo. Do you want to listen to the person who already left gehennim? We'll say the one who already left sheker. The one who already rises up. Do you want to listen to him? And if you do, yagiela makomamyud and I'm being maday, he doesn't say someone who believes him. He says, I want to believe him umi. And he says it again, misha lo yer TZE lahamen. And he says it again, if I don't want to listen and I want to just do it myself, I want to figure it out myself. That's very heavy for sure. Second time he says it. Vadai sheyishar oyved velay yagya e' love. One of the hardest things for anyone who's dealt with with different things in their life is letting go and asking advice and having someone else tell you that maybe I'm blind to many things and I need someone to show me the way. Trust. Trust is very complex. I think it's difficult if anybody have the zero judgment to talk about anyone to be moishel already. Somebody who is already totally not talking about the tzadikim, the big tzadikim who already have ruled over their yetzer hara who besoycha shvilim lo yukhal havchan Bayneim, somebody who has not yet overcome his Yetzahara cannot differentiate between right and wrong. The tzadik, the person who is already above. They see it clearly. And he says it again, all you need to have is a ratzon. I want to get out of the darkness that I'm in. You don't have to get out, because know what happens when you try and get out? You get stuck in the maze even more. But all you have to have is the desire to trust someone who's already been there and has gotten out. Valem TV Anu Lahamen Interesting that he says it like that. I love it. Ramchal is like giving us a shulchan oruch in front of us, telling us, so what are they telling us to do? I love it. Thank you. Hashem. Think. Think about what life is about. As we spoke during Niilah this year from the Derechet Chaim, where he says clearly, spend time thinking about why am I here on this world? What is this world about? What am I about? Who am I? Kikfar nihim nisu vero vi yado. Listen to the strength of the Ramchal that he says, because they already know that this alone incredible that the Ramchal says this. Shezer levada yehudere hamiti la gedomatovashuma vakish the loi zulaz zeh. There's only one way to get out, and that is to think about life, to learn misil sisharam. To learn about what olam haz is, what oilam haba, whatever. We could spend our whole day talking about what it means to make a chesh bin a nefesh, to think about what your life is. They think that. That it's a new wave thing. It's not a New wave thing. This is Ramchal talking. We're only eight minutes. We're going to finish this probably within nine minutes, which is the whole zahiris, which we're going to talk more about. So what he's saying there, I'm Khalid is giving us insight. What do I do? What I need to do is I need to want to believe and to know what the Ramchala is saying. I got to think about life. I got to spend time. Take a walk by yourself. Take a walk for five minutes, for 10 minutes. Take a walk. Think. Think for a second. What? What's it about? I don't know. Something like that. To spend time for a moment, Consider my life. What am I doing? What time do I wake up? When do I go to sleep. Where am I? Taivist. What am I? This. I'm insecure. I have an. I have this. The whole shebang. The whole nine yards. Everything. Emotionally cognitive. Maisa chachma bina das. Everything. Everything. Oh, I gotta relax. I don't have to relax. I gotta work hard. Yes. Yes, yes. Hasidis musser. This. This is right. This is wrong. Yes. Ask questions. Ask questions. There's no quick fix. Less than 10 minutes. I could tell you will help you. We did. We didn't do less than 10 minutes. Sorry. Ad hashem. Ten minutes. And you think it's a joke when we say 10 minutes a day? It's not. I lied today because I said less than 10 minutes. It's 10 minutes and 15 seconds. So I'm saying that exactly. Hashem should help us all. 10 minutes. Exactly. And I'm saying Bedafka. Less than 10 minutes because. Exactly. Thank you.
