Thank you so much. Great musar

What does death have to do with - NAVUAH?

Isn't a MITZVAH defined as a CONNECTION with G-D , assuming and subsuming that you weren't before you did the commandment? And this is the means by which you LOVE The Creator?

So can you say that although we don't have navia since the destruction of the beit hamikdash and we entered into the tekufa of chacchma, that we are in a trajectory of ascending to the level of Adam harishon as is said no one will inquire from his neighbor about Hashem because everyone from the least to the greatest will know and the knowledge of Hashem will fill the earth as the waters cover the seabed? An interesting question would be who was closer to Adam Ha Rishoj Moshe Rabeinu or Rabbi Akiva, because you mentioned that Adam was beyond navia , he had an awareness, well isn't that chacchma?

I feel this is the problem that we view olam haba as a prize and we view olam haba as something that is not here but there. The truth is I believe, is olam haba is a necessity, it's we exist or don't there is no middle ground. And the only way we exist in olam ha emet is through davakit to Hashem otherwise there is no olam haba. How much olam haba we get depends on how much we exert ourselves in cleaving to God and this is done through the mitzvot. The mitzvot aren't an end in of themselves but the change that a person effects within himself through their performance. It's like the karate kid with all the exercises Mr Miagi had Daniel do, Daniel thought to himself these exercises were stupid what does painting a certain way or washing a car a certain way have to do with karate, but then Mr. Miagi pur him through the test where he had to put all of those concepts and Daniel understood. So too with the mitzvot. And olam haba doesn't have to be after we die, olam haba can begin here if we can achieve a level of davakit to Hashem as the tzadikim do, they are in olam haba while living in olam ha ze. Just my thoughts

Please remove the noise

Background noise make it really hard to understand :(

It seems part of or the summary of the meaning of the sin of Adam was subscribing to the notion/thinking he was outside of G.d, as if there is an Other(and therefore he could become LIKE G OD, as if we are separated from Him to begin with)

תודה על השעור המעצים, שנזכה שרוב יושביה עליה, למשיח מקדש ושער הנון, ומלאה הארץ דעה את ה׳ כמים לים מכסים.

משרע״ה זכה לשער הנון במיתתו הוא קבור בהר נבו ומסבירים נון בו. ויהושע נקרא יהושע בן נון.

I’m closer to getting this. The rabbi has been teaching this for sometime now and it becomes more clear each time. Thank you.

Why is the audio always so bad for his lectures? Please improve it.

What do you call a person who has an answer for everything? You may have heard people like this referred to as "know-it-alls." Many know-it-alls can be challenging to be around, but they may not mean any harm by their behavior. However, there are some know-it-alls whose behavior can be a symptom of a deeper problem.

This man talking in the video makes God to be nothing . His gifts of wisdom, etc, are his God .

not listening

What ever the I is beyond concept and beyond definition and unable to be detected even by the self, it is said I have this and constructs of objective reality among these is the my body, my soul and myself. These things are not the I but things we posses. Even myself is only the outside the resides in the objective reality that can be detectable, but the I is beyond everything. This is the difference between the word אני and אנכי. When Hashem says אנכי ה' אלו it is referring to the aspect that is revealed which is his manifestation in the form in the shechina and in his ratzon in the Torah, which can be sensed in the objective realm and outside of us. But the אני however is beyond this objective realm, and this is why we cannot sense God. In order to have this awareness of God we have to through the אני that is us. And this why God told Moshe no man can see me and live. Because to see God is to be God, and if we are God then there is nothing else, this is the reality that we would have achieved. This cannot ever be and it isn't the will of Hashem, but we can assume the second part of what God told Moshe, I will cover your face until I will pass you and you will see my back. In other words you will see me through my levushim which is all reality, this is the knowledge that fills the world as the waters cover the seabed.

On a PRACTICAL LEVEL, how can you love G-D when you can't see Him?

Thank you for uploading another Torah lecture!

WOW. thank you Rabbi

Perhaps that INTRINSIC KNOWLEDGE of yourself, or that SELF-AWARENESS, has to do with the way G-D organized Creation - by making a world, putting it in your heart (mind), and then putting YOU in that world! IOW, you cannot see the Creator because all you have is a representation of the world and - YOURSELF as the main inhabitant!

Doesn't the EIN SOF also imply NO BEGINNING?

be - NOT - tmbe

Another important idea: The (almost) constant extolling of certain people's skills and virtues, and at the same time, making sure to put you in your place and reminding you that you don't even come up to their toes with respect to development - should tmbe addressed as a behavior to AVOID.

P S & N B I also, and ESPECIALLY, meant to suggest, that the WHO & the WHAT are INEXTRICABLY JOINED - so that there's always the possibility of AD HOMINEM ATTACKS, either directly or indirectly.

Without pointing fingers - how do you change the following mindset, where the individual strictly adheres to the protocol of - the sage and the passage or vice versa, and insists that you do the same? Therefore he automatically aligns himself with WHO you are rather than WHAT you are saying.

G-D , so to speak, WITHDREW FROM HIMSELF, in order to allow the EVIL INCLINATION to exist - right?

Henry Ford was one of Hitler’s biggest supporters. Smedley Butler wrote a book called “War is a Racket” it’s an eye opener. G-d Bless the Jewish people.

Have read of Shimshon being condemned for following his eyes as it were, yet given his fame and stature why would he even need to marry Delilah or consort with other women, unless his apparent lameness (and not his other habits) were the main issue on both his part and any potential Israelite partners.

The world has the blood of more than 6 millions Jews on their hands. No surprise of what is happening around the world now.

My next book: “When G-d leaves America”.

May HaShem bless you with what he knows you need the most in his Eyes.

May HaShem bless you with what he knows you need the most in his Eyes..

Methinks that this back-and-forth bringing and rescinding the GEULAH, has to do with our LACK of respect and honor for our FELLOW Jew and Mankind! IOW, there are certain people who should know better, who hold particular positions of AUTHORITY, but unfortunately also display to varying degrees - traits of: elitist bourgeois, self-righteous, pompous arrogance! They seem to expect everyone who does not possess their levels of knowledge and self-control - to simply nod their heads and bow in approval to everything they say! At the same time, they are not prepared to listen or accept what you have to offer! I guess, in some sense, we are ALL guilty of an unwillingness to learn from the other! We need to start by giving each other MORE than the basic respect that a child, or even an animal, deserves!

What EXACTLY does the Chidah mean when he says that ONLY the study of Kabbalah and Mysticism will bring the GEULAH?

I DISAGREE that hitler, (CURSED be his name), asked EVERY NATION if they were prepared to take in the Jews. He probably didn't ask Central America and maybe even China if they were ready to accommodate them. In any case, he could have simply physically moved them out of the country and then just let them go wherever But in truth, his ORIGINAL intention was described in Mein Kempf, and that was - MURDER & EXTERMINATION!!

What does it - REALLY MEAN - when we describe the open miracle of a staff of wood metamorphizing into a snake, and water changing the blood? OBVIOUSLY, it cannot signify - LITERALLY - because that would interfere with G - D's PRIME DIRECTIVE, which is - FREEDOM OF CHOICE!!!

Doesn't it say that Gentiles are not considered married in the eyes of G - D, and therefore how could the wife of Potiphar be considered and Eishes Ish?

Excellent work dear rabbi. I followed you for several years now. We have become interested in the subject of reincarnation in the last year or so. This schul was helpful.

Sorry, but it's not clear to me if time, space ans substance exist in h'aholam h'aba. Could you, please, answer me. Thank you!

Good day, please fix the audio, it's all channeled through the left speaker output. Please re upload as a Mono file so it comes through both speakers, the rabbi deserves to be heard in clear audio, thanks

An hour's worth of nonsense that has NOTHING to do with the Noahide Law. Why not teach Noahides something valuable, such as why Noahides should be studying the halakha and hashkafa of Noahdie Law and not spiritual nonsense.

P S. & N.B. Doesn't the Mishna say that each righteous individual will inherit 310 worlds!? And isn't that a reference to PHYSICAL reality - not just some religious, ephemeral notion?

Why can't you say that OLAM HABA is a PERFECTED form of this world, where you DO have: time, space and substance ? After all, what is supposed to be the meaning of all those stars, galaxies and planets we see on a clear night?

All of this is true total emit

I've learned a lot from both Rabbi Kessins, and everything makes sense but there is still some things that bother me. I don't think it's about reward and punishment ultimately, it is true that we are rewarded and punished but that is an aside but not the goal. The ultimate end is the correction of the nature of being. We do not earn olam ha ba, we create olam ha ba or we become olam ha ba, this is why it's said ayin lo raasa. No eye has seen it because it was not created, it is created through our self awareness by elevating it through the hashgafa and the mitzvot , through good deeds and choosing to do the will of God.

I’ve been listening to Reb Kessin for about 2 years. I’m not Jewish but I am a “noahide” before a beis din. I can understand this along with most of his lectures. All I can say is Hashem seems to be accelerating the knowledge of God. If I can follow these teachings, things are on the move so to speak. 😅. Thank you rabbi ❤

Thank you for this amazing and helpful shiur.
