0:10 All right, so we'll say good morning. 0:11 Good morning. Good morning. 0:13 Let's I'm sorry for the little bit of a late start, but let's at least begin a few moments. 0:18 What I'd like to try to do today is for today, the couple of moments that we have as well as Thursday and Friday and I'll share them to do a little bit of sodic on shiva. 0:30 Getting us ready in the coming and ultimately beginning next week with beginning to dive a little bit earlier. 0:39 So I'm going to do at least here. 0:40 Maybe I'll record a few more but I want to go back. 0:43 If we I sent out the PDF last night on the on the WhatsApp chat to go back to which we did in a long time ago, but I think it's one of those pieces that is incredibly important to appreciate the 0:57 dynamic of shiva. greatest follows. 1:00 This is in he writes so let's actually take a look at the because here we get a little bit of context and a little bit of background to what is trying to convey to us. 1:14 So this is really an incredible piece. 1:16 He says shatara but Adam been kaparoso lebane taharoso shmasho. 1:28 So remember again, interestingly enough when it comes to right when it comes to other person who becomes ritually impure, so halacha there's two parts to the person's process. 1:39 There's what we call kaparoso, the bringing of his kapara which usually refers to a carbon and then there's taharoso the shmasho. 1:49 And then there's right tara interestingly enough personalistic purity occurs when hair of shemesh right we've seen this many times throughout our journeys in shiva. 2:00 So again a person goes to the a person has hair of shemesh that setting of the sun purified the individual and then afterwards a person still has to bring their carbon. 2:11 Two stages in the purification process. 2:14 So does something absolutely amazing. 2:18 She came who over. 2:20 going to see what he's going to say that the process for what we'll call personal or physical ritual purity is the same process for spiritual purity. 2:32 In other words, just like there are two stages to becoming hair of shemesh the setting of the sun and the bringing of the carbon so to is going to be these two processes as well. 2:47 She had a bash. 2:49 Yesh but in your name and it's only a shadow. 2:53 This is truly beautiful. 2:54 So too. By shiva there's going to be the equivalent of hair of shemesh setting of the sun and then kapara ultimately again carbon. 3:04 So let's so let's analyze the two pieces. 3:06 So continuing in in continuing in the hasidus is page gimel left hand column. 3:12 Lash so the says I understand in when it comes to shiva I understand the two parts right again part one setting of the sun hair of shemesh part two kapara carbon. 3:22 How is this reflected in the shiva process and stuff beautiful this is. 3:25 Alif. Lash I love Leo's tove for ham lahto. 3:33 So here here's what's interesting. 3:35 Essentially the topic does something incredible. 3:38 We'll say if you think about if you think about let's let's talk about shiva. 3:42 Everyone loves to talk about shiva. 3:43 Right let's talk about shiva for just a second. 3:46 Look at the two parts. 3:47 There's the setting of the sun and there's the bringing of the carbon. 3:51 So if you think about it setting of the sun always represents what? 3:55 Setting of the sun represents a closure of the day. 3:59 Right wants to suggest that part of the process addresses the past. 4:05 Addresses the past. The bringing of the carbon the bringing of the carbon ultimately goes ahead and represents what? 4:12 The future. So says so too in the shiva process there are these two looking. 4:19 There's the past and there's the future. 4:22 So says Alif therefore in the again we'll we'll fit it all together in just a moment. 4:27 There's Alif lash I love a ba. 4:30 Leo's tove for ham lahto. 4:32 In shiva there is a process. 4:35 There's a future oriented process. 4:37 Future oriented process is that I have a plan myself going forward to be good and not to sin. 4:45 And base the menasha government is not and base says. 4:52 Is to fix that which happened in the past and not to repeat those same mistakes. 4:58 Now we'll say we'll have to stop because we're out of time, but I want to show you something amazing. 5:03 Do you notice something incredibly intriguing? 5:05 What's intriguing? The order in which the topic discusses these things. 5:10 In other words, this idea that shiva has a past and future orientation. 5:15 So that that's not a surprise. 5:17 We we know that right there's always this process of shiva of kind of reconciling with the past and ultimately going out and planning for the future. 5:23 What I do want to point out to you something very interesting. 5:26 Under normal circumstances when we speak about a shiva model, which one comes first past or future? 5:32 Past. Past almost always comes first. 5:35 This is the way it works with the this is the way it works with the but I want to point out to you something very interesting is that in the model in the model the the future oriented piece comes before 5:48 the past. If you notice that that's why is I love Leo's tove for ham lahto. 5:55 Step one in shiva is I want to be good. 5:59 I I don't want to do this anymore. 6:01 I don't want to do this anymore. 6:02 I don't want this to be me anymore. 6:05 I don't want to behave this way anymore. 6:06 I want to be different going forward and base is menasha government is not base is then to go ahead and say you know what but I have to reconcile with the past. 6:19 First I make a plan for the future and then there's a reconciliation with the past. 6:24 We'll have to stop over here for today. 6:25 I apologize. We'll actually you know what we'll we'll take a look we'll take a look for another minute. 6:30 He says by you you can result timer. 6:33 So these are the two these are the two levels in result timer result happening should Adam Tommy K gone with shney varim could they eat garlic tomatoes so we actually really have to stop here. 6:48 So so again it's topic is going to show the same way he's going to use as an example. 6:53 Right the same way that the requires ultimately again two looking to his tarot. 6:59 Hair of shemesh the setting of the sun kapara the bringing of the carbon so to the shiva is going to have these two as well. 7:08 There is the kabala what he calls ultimately again I want to be someone different going forward. 7:14 I don't want to do these things. 7:16 I want to grow. 7:17 I want to be different. 7:18 I want to be better then then a reconciliation with the past. 7:23 So the topic's model of shiva which we'll delve into more tomorrow halacha mesa the orientation or the focus on. 7:30 Who I want to be is the first step and after I take care of that then there's the diving back into the past to reconcile those mistakes. 7:39 So we'll stop over here for today. 7:40 We'll pick up. With the rest of we'll probably spend tomorrow and Friday on getting us ready for the shukaya.
