What’s said in this shiur

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

Heat. Heat. [Music] your sh. What mitzvah are we all about to do? This is for the newcomers, okay, to the show, to the show, to the what mitzvah we about to do? learning to learning Torah. Right now, we could launch into it or we could stop for one second and say, "I'm learning mitzvah and I'm learning Torah because you, Hashem, told me to, you commanded me to." The question is, what's the difference? Does that really make a big difference? What? between learning Torah without stopping first and having intention to learn Torah. Does it make a difference? Is there a difference in let's say the reward? Yes. Totally correct. Listen to what the Ron says. The the original Ron says he says take two peoples who are doing a mitzvah. One does it he does it tries his best. The other does it with kavana. Now by kavana most people think kavana means focus here I mean it means intentionality right you express your intentions to hashem and focus is big but okay what's the difference so the ron says that I don't care what kind of sophisticated uh computers you have a cannot tell you the difference he says aim the difference is so rate the it can't be calculated. Okay, so it's a big deal and this this doesn't just apply to what we're doing right now learning Torah. Everything you smile at your wife, right? You say good morning to somebody on the street. Unbelievable if you do it with intention. Okay, that's that's what I'm all about these days is trying to give my life over to this to because it's huge. Okay, but now I just told you it's a big deal. But let's make that make sense for a second. Okay. The uh I I like bringing this example. Uh uh Rev Simka told me about uh Rav Gance
