Yoseph HaTzadik - The Power To Rule part 1

Bring it to the people. The Tzadik shines the light of his righteousness into the broken hearts of the people. and this is what we need to learn how to do. this process is through the power of speech. most of us, unfortunately have been trained to speak in a negative way, whether it's in our communication with others or whether it's in our internal communication, we are not effective. And we're going to use this teaching of Rebbe Nachman to go into the teachings of Marshall Rosenberg, Lahavdal, when anybody studies a subject for the sake of heaven, to help the world, he will come up with the absolute truth. And I feel that this person who is not even religious has come up with the absolute truth that I want to share this with the world right now.

The Controversial Multicolored Coat

 

We often hold a fantasy that Joseph was a gigantic, righteous figure, born into the world adorned with his beautiful coat. The verse describes him as fixing his eyes upward and having an issue with his tongue, which symbolized his immaturity. The coat itself was emblematic of his father's recognition of Joseph's tremendous potential. Yet, ironically, it was this very coat that sparked animosity among his brothers, ultimately pushing Joseph to become the person he was destined to be. In his early years, Joseph was merely an immature 17-year-old, and just as his potential was great, so too were the obstacles — likened to a foreskin covering over that potential. It is often the case that those born with immense potential face equally great challenges, for these challenges serve as opportunities for growth and transformation.

The Power to Rule- Part 4 | Go To Yoseph Whatever He Says Do

The whole world is looking for bread. They came to Pharaoh and Pharaoh says, 
GO TO YOSEPH  and whatever he says to do.
DO! 
What is Rashi say? 
We gathered in the grain. We heard the announcement. It wasn't a secret. We stored up grain for the years of famine , but it all rotted . YOSEPH not only knew to foresee the future by interpreting the dream of Pharaoh, but he also knew how to preserve the years of bounty .

Pharaoh says, if so, whatever. Joseph says, DO!. What did Joseph tell these people? He wanted them to be circumcised . What? Circumcised ? Yup. It's impossible, says REB NOSSON, to subjugate the embarrassment that hovers over the heart . Without that aspect of BRIS MILA

The Power to Rule Part 6 - REBBE NOSSON THE POWER OF CONNECTION

On Zos Chanukah , I had the great honor of speaking in the Old City by a Yeshiva very special boys and the Rosh Yeshiva He started a song that's usually reserved for very famous, important rabbis like Chaim Kanievski 

For me, it was a joke and I had to. I had to set the record straight and let the guys know, you know, who I really am . And I told them what I've said so many times. My story about when I was a kid that my favorite toy was a Barrel of Monkeys and the object of the game was to take these monkeys and make a long chain. 

And I said, Guys, I just want you to know I am just a monkey in a chain . But I assure you that above me there are real today Tzadikim 

 Even if a person feels that he's a monkey , he's not on the same level as the Tzadikim 
But it's imperative to know that he can connect with Tzadikim even if he's not on the same level.

We are wired for connection
Uniquely programed with a lofty soul and a very physical body
And our purpose as a human being is to reveal G-d in the world by engaging with the physical world, food money relationships and to elevate everything to back to its source, and of course the only way to be effective is following the divine directive. Hashem’s instruction manual

The Power to Rule part 12 - Honor For The Garments Of The King

The Riziner one Motzy Shabbos told the following story. Once the Holy Baal Shem was davening and the corner of his Talis slipped out of his gartle and touched the floor. The Great Magid picked it up and tucked it back into place. And then all of the sudden, as if he had stuck by lightning, he fainted. Seeing that his life was in danger they interrupted the prayers of the Besht and he revived him. About this said the Riziner, The Baal Shem, was very holy but he wasn’t G-d, and my Zaide the Magid wasn’t exactly a simple wagon driver! BUT!, when he touch his GARMENT look what happened. It’s a wonder to me, how can we daily through our eating,   working,   living, so to speak TOUCH the Garments of the KING OF KINGS and not have the proper reverence to honor the sparks of Godliness in creation   And that’s our topic for today…

The Power to Rul Part 14 Delusions of Grandeur The Royal Masquerade

One of the CUSTOMS of Purim is costumes
 The villains in this story. These narcissistic  maniacs Achashvarosh and Vashti , Human 
They're all trying to masquerade as kings and queens royalty, honorable people who are basically ingarbing themselves in the garments of The King without really owning them, without being fit for them. Where are people's mistakes?

 Their external selves

It's in their egos . 

They make a big deal out of themselves. 
What is it a narcissist supposed to do in order to get out of his trap?

 Follow Rebbe Nachman's instructions. Make light of yourself. Joke around . This is also a big motif of Purim . Why do angels fly? Because they take themselves lightly . Make jokes ..... Not about other people, but about your own idiosyncrasies.
