What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi YY Jacobson’s own words— taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

on the bottom chapter 8 it's a cold morning so let's try to warm ourselves up or get warmed up okay today's class is dedicated harav arel Ben harav sh rno whose yard set was on the eighth day ofat he was actually a student of mine real rno passed away a number of years ago very special young man dedicated by his father and family and also dedicated by rimin and rify Veri her father and his [Music] father-in-law okay so let's remember the summation of what we learned at least one of the main points and that is that what is the Practical ramifications of that fundamental idea that the Z articulates in the words that extends even to the lowest places what does that mean viscerally practically in a person's life what it means is as it gives the long example of Y the story with the B but the point in the summation is at least one of the points is that a person when they're completely anchored in their own Divine pristine core never allow them a person ought to never allow themselves despite how difficult it can be to get pulled away from that space to get detached from that space and follow every thought down a rabbit hole and then sooner or later I'm completely consumed by that thought or emotion or experience or encounter but rather the power of YF was that he was always anchored and entrenched like every person can be every person according to their capacity if I could completely be anchored and entrenched in my Divine pure sacred whole self then I'm not afraid of any thought that comes up because I allow it I don't repress it
