SPEAKER_00

Alrightra, hope you had a meaningful fast yesterday. Today is Tuesday, day 106. Peleoitz. Let's jump right in. New topic today, the topic of Teva nature. Kyuvi Rama Al Kul Odom Le Snaik Alpia Teva. It's incumbent upon every person to conduct his life, to conduct his affairs according to the principles of nature. Bishmir's Buryuso regarding his health, Viharvachas Parnaso, Parnasoso, or in terms of earning a livelihood. Many follow the natural order of things, but it doesn't help them. They're still struggling in health. They're still struggling in Parnasa. They're still being unsuccessful, even though they're doing what's normal. They're not finding success. We have to go back to what the source, back what the Tirah tells us in Devaram Chas Yirchas. At the end of the day, yes, we're living in the confines of nature, but ultimately everything's decided by Hashem, and Hashem is the one who is going to decide and give us the strength to achieve wealth or health, etc. Everything that happens according to a person, everything that happens to a person according to nature. It's all from Hashem, I'll pee myself based on the actions of man. Let's say somebody deviates and does something bad. Um then yes, he consciously made that decision, right? His whole life he just ate donuts, right? So that was his thing. No fruits, no vegetables, just donuts. It still obviously goes back to Shemai. Avalharisa Miskai Banashivan, but he's gonna be account accountable for that. And um he's gonna be subject to judgment in the future for acting inappropriately. Uh Vizukakira Muka. This is actually a very profound question, a profound inquiry. Shainalatushuva, there's not really a good answer. Because of we're fine, we're we're finite beings. What's he gonna say? Imaros alpia teva gamge bigzeris alyon. If the evil of the natural order is determined by Hashem, I'm cane, Lama Yanush al Shiitsman Hashura. Why, if a person deviates, he makes that decision, then why should he be punished? That's that's all happening Shemayan, right? Don't try to understand things that are beyond you. This is the concept that everything is foreseen, yet permission is still given. And this is one of the great um dilemmas of and not dilemma, but this is one of the great questions that people might have in this world. Well, if Hashem knows everything and ultimately everything's decreed by him, then really, where's my Bahir? Perish a Rambamzal, the Rambam explained. Shakurish Bar, Hashem knows everything is true. However, his knowledge is not a determinant. And it's still man's uh capability to do what his heart desires. Right? We're dealing with like apples and origins. And of course, what we do is foreseen. It's known. But it doesn't take away the power of Pahirah, and obviously the Shar and Onesh involved. And therefore a person will be judged in the future if he deviated from the proper path. Person has to be strong in his faith, to believe with total faith, Shahem S Kane, that what that this is the truth, the actions of the Rak meaning Hashem are perfect. And just because we don't know something, that's exactly the point, because we we're limited in our knowledge, or humans. His ways transcend ours. We have to live with a muna and tap into this reservoir of righteousness. Even if some people do a person harm, and they choose, they they they deviate from the right thing, the right path, and they cause a person harm. They're going to be held accountable for it. Because they chose that. Like we find by the Egyptian gallists, this is why we became slaves. It's true, we deserve to go down. And it's also true that it was decreed it was gonna happen that we're gonna go down. And it's also true that the Egyptians were held accountable for what they did to us. All this is true, and it's beyond our comprehension. How's that how does that all play? How's that all work? This is something clear and famous. We'll continue this section of Teva tomorrow, wishing you an amazing, wonderful rest of your day.
