You are an Ambassador of G-d | Pele Yoetz | Hachzek Day 62
Alright, Hevra, we are back. I hope that you had a meaningful Tishba of yesterday. Today is the 10th above. It's Friday. Air of Shabiz, Parishva Schanon. Everybody should have a tremendous nechama. And next week should be a week filled with Gula. That's Hashem. Okay. We are beginning a new topic today, the topic of Khilul Hashem, desecrating the name of Hashem, which, if you guess, yet it's not a good thing. We don't want to do that. Desecrating God's name is more severe than any other sin in the Torah. Shamura Bus Seyn's to the extent that Khazal have taught us. Sometimes when it comes to getting atonement, you need one of these items on the list or two, whatever. Here to be mechaper for the sin of Khilashem, you need all aspects of Tishhuvah. A person should be frightened, unsettled, um, lest he comes to meaning he should be so afraid to cause a khilashem. To stay far away from it, to be extra vigilant and careful. It's true, it's difficult to do this. Shaq Hashem will call the fi mashu'adam because it's not like a set thing. Oh, this is a khilashem is not. It depends on the person, it depends on where you stand, um, whatever your position might be in the grand scheme of this world. Shaq Hashem will call the fi mashuadam, it depends on the person, chhizikin or so ha'ilam, how the world looks at him, how does he how does the world perceive you as an upstanding servant of God? Right? If the thing that you're about to do causes others to speak negatively about you, so and then you someone else might be doing the same exact thing, but they're not gonna speak negatively about him. That means you're held to a certain standard, and therefore, by you doing that, that would be a m khiloshem. Like we find uh by Rabbi Yoichnan who said that somebody like myself, so in theory, you should have to walk around to fill in all day. Uh, other mean yodimazatos, right? Onlookers would see, and they'll be like, oh, maybe this guy is lazy, have a khoshem, right? So for what one person might be a khoshem, for others, it might not. Say Lomad Khaimershabo, we can see the severity of this. Alze yidvu kola, daivim ki miza, ki mi hu za naki, right? Sensitive people in this manner, they're gonna they're they'll be like, oh my goodness, because how can a person be innocent in this regard if it depends on other people? Person has to realize that when it comes to not making or anything for that matter, it it depends on you have to do what's expected from you. What you can do, you should do. To be on guard, to do the best of your ability. God doesn't really ask for much more than that. A person should put his best foot forwards and apply his greatest effort that he can in order to guard himself from doing anything that's immoral, something that people might suspect it to be the case. Vishlo Yimtu Makma Daber Allah, ensure that you're leaving no room for people to talk about you in a slanderous way. Right? That money should not be worth anything in your eyes, um, even if there's a small teeny chance of making a khiloheshep. I will shash guzzle shum midun isser, or if there's any possibility of theft or any prohibition involved, realize it's not worth it for me to get involved in this chaswalom to be involved in khilohsem, shemutov shyyamazburafnachum sha'akas, better for he die to of hunger than to be considered wicked before Hashem, even for a single moment. Remember that anybody who seeks Hashem, he will not like any good. So again, the Palayus is telling us that it depends on the person. At the end of the day, every single yid is an ambassador of the Ribani Shal Alam, and therefore every person is held accountable according to his level where he stands. And so a person has to just be cognizant and careful that I represent something bigger than myself. And if Khazam, I act in a way that that that doesn't look good, well that to Khila Hashem, it causes a bad reflection to my father up in heaven. And we just finished with Tishab, a time period where we remember that Gurush Barakhu is our Av, is our father. And it's somewhat of a khilashem. Like it's embarrassing. And we we gotta we gotta go back, we gotta build again, we gotta uh increase our level of uh of life and and how we're l uh we're spending our time, increasing our shalom, increasing our limitatura, increasing our shalom bias, increasing everything as we can, increasing our honesty in business, everything that we can do to counteract and to to not make a sham but to make the greatest kirushishem possible. We should all be Zah to do that, wishing you an amazing Shabbos. If you're interested in sponsoring the Shiram, um we have some availability next week. Please reach out to me and Mirz Hashem. I look forward to learning, continuing the Haligapalayo Mirz Hashem on Sunday. All the best.
