The shiur in English
The Yanuka’s own words in this shiur, translated into English by Lehallel · 384 words · 2:44. Press a time to hear it said.
0:02 The Yanuka spoke with you for a long time; we were very surprised that he so... - I don't know, what am I... nothing. He is refined; a soul like his does not come down in every generation. It comes down once in many generations, such a soul. No, he... A special soul. He'll get into the car... let's get into the car, and maybe he'll speak more from the car.
0:29 People come; there is much to receive from him. You need to hold on to him. Whoever is close to him receives much holiness. He is very refined; there are not many like him in the generation. I don't know if there are any at all. But this is a special soul that comes down to the world to illuminate the world.
1:02 But we have known him for ten years, already from the age of 19, all of him full of Torah, like this. It is a wonder that... He is truly so from the age of infancy; not for nothing is he called the Yanuka. Chacham Avraham Chai would travel to him (to the Yanuka) when he was 16. The tzaddikim have a sense of smell; they know whom to come to.
1:33 And with all this, he hides himself among the vessels, your Rav. Yes, 'hidden among the vessels.' He worked on himself very hard. He takes no pleasure in all the honor they give him. It doesn't interest him. It doesn't interest him at all. This is called 'the truly lowly one', what the Vitebsker, the Pri HaAretz, wrote. 'The truly lowly one': he truly continues him.
1:58 to have compassion on the Jews, to bring them close and to help them: that is his reality. - And what does the Rav say about his Torah? Did the Rav hear? - The whole Torah: whatever one speaks with him about, he knows it all. No secret is too hard for him, in the revealed and in the hidden; there is nothing that he does not know. You need to warm yourselves by his light. Yes. 'Warm yourself by the light of the tzaddikim.'
2:24 to receive the influence of the light, it gives you vitality, also in this world: your lives are clearer, more pleasant, a person lives in a better way. Happy.
