What’s said in this shiur

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

the acceptance of pain and suffering this principle has two different interpretations one interpretation is learning torah metal surim dedicating your life to the toil of torah and depriving yourself and your body from bodily earthly pleasures the awareness the recognition that to really achieve greatness and torah you need to dedicate your life to it and you cannot afford to pursue many pleasures that the world has to offer according to the medra shimoel that is the proper interpretation of kabbalah surim taking upon yourself you sued him for the sake of talmud taylor which would mean for example learning german valo being up late at night and learning and instead of spending your garden going to restaurants going to board games having a good time spending your time with friends hanging out no you're going to sit in the basement you're going to dedicate your spare time to toyota that is one interpretation of kabbalah's suiting taking upon yourself a certain level of discomfort and lack of enjoyment out of hasmada and out of your quest to achieve greatness in total and to grow in tighter and to be a talmud the other interpretation is we all have different times in life and sometimes we suffer whether it's physical pain illness whether it is seeing and witnessing and experiencing the pain of loved ones life is full of trials and tribulations life is not a rose garden life has its ups and downs struggles and challenges and cabors would mean yes bowing down our heads to a kurdish person saying thank you we believe this is the way it has to be we believe you love us even when you hurt us and we believe that in a way that might be above and beyond the realm of our understanding it is good like rebecca benoist have taught us always to say
