The Secret of Happiness | Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in BRI Breslov: The Breslov Research Institute’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

okay so like this the whole world is created just for your sake what does that mean it means you're responsible for it what are you responsible to do exactly you're responsible to fill in whatever is lacking not much of a big task huh whatever is lacking in the world and it's incumbent upon you to fill it okay so if you spend even 10 minutes thinking about what's lacking in the world you will find 10 minutes worth of lackings and if you go longer you will go longer and if you did this for hours you would find hours so therefore the question is obviously what do you now do about this comes rabbi nachman which everybody knows is not much of a kiddushba that is you pray to fill the lack okay great but we've all been praying for things and not getting them and we have been praying for lackings and those lackings are still lacking so what's the reason that the lackings are still lacking and the answer is because we have a counter force or in the words of uh the scientists there's an anti-particle your prayer is the particle and you have an anti-particle and this anti-particle is doing whatever it can to stop your prayers from being answered where are these anti-particles coming from they're coming from prior errors that us ourselves personally have made in our own life or continue to make in our life and these become the anti-particles to our prayers and specifically and also collectively amongst the jewish people at large the same exact paradigm exists and therefore rebbe nachman says that since it's incumbent on you to pray for the world and that you must feel its lacking so then we need to know how to pray
