What’s said in this shiur

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

last class uh one of the one of the participants asked a very interesting question we were discussing who is fit to be a true leader who is um which type of leader do we follow and who's not appropriate to follow so you know i didn't really get into the details then but i'm going to discuss now at least we'll start with who definitely we should not be following you know let's you know stay away from the negative and then we'll deal with the positive hopefully throughout the the continuation of the class so who should we definitely not be following idea of the kabbalah place where they want to teach the world about kabbalah and really what they want us to make a lot of money that place is not the place we should none of the rabbis you know give it can you know you know credit and it's definitely advised to stay away if anyone wants true torah and uh and really kabbalah eventually when he's ready so there's every other place but there you can go yeah don't go to wikipedia right now we're computers good for some information anyway so talking about who not to follow it reminds me of a really funny story well a sad story but you know i'll forgive you a few left because i left when i heard it as well so bukitsu my brother told me about a very nice wedding that he went to beautiful wedding see how beautiful so i actually know the person getting married they're all friends of ours it's unfortunate because they're jewish but they really drifted very far and with this wedding a bit further and you'll see how far i mean so let's start with uh when the wedding
