[Music] [Applause] [Music] good evening the day that nothing happened sometimes silence surpasses all other preparations tonight's class is dedicated in the loving memory of a young friend of mine no sonata Arabs Amin you the Dyke who was tragically taken from us last Sunday on Lag Ba'Omer the class is also dedicated by the vid and EDA Schottenstein in the loving memory of the Mumbai Kadosh iam and rabbi Gabi and Rivka Holtzberg and in the loving memory of a young soul alte Shula sward loved been abuse of Yitzhak and Hindle - Hamish Masson Trudeau but Sarah hi and may their souls be bound up in the eternal bond of life and may God comfort their loved ones among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem I think I once shared with you the anecdote about the Jew who was looking for spirituality and as you know unfortunately many Jews often young Jews lament that it's very hard to find spirituality within the infrastructure of Jewish institutions so this young man like many young Jews in recent decades travel to the Far East and goes into an ashram where he begins to meditate to engage in all of the spiritual practices of the Far East and after years of initiation and training and discipline and spirits work in progress he decides he wants to become a Buddhist monk so he's assured in into that special ashram and the his mentor his spiritual mentor guru tells him listen you can become a monk but it takes a lot of work for one you can only speak once in five
