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

have a look at the uh the lockers before we get to our lockers there's something there's something very fascinating about the malabar malka which needs to be understood it's something we're talking about the fourth meal anyway um before before we begin the lockers of the lava market let's talk about the philosophy behind the hell of the the malabar marker what its function is that the uh the philosophy behind the lava marker is actually very esoteric something which uh is very difficult to it's very very kabbalistic very spiritual um there is a part of your body called the luz right which it's a bone called the luz which would explain why most of you are losers the uh thank you no it's really it really is called the luz that you have a bone in your body called called the luz the luz is the end of your brain stem where is it located where is it located for some of you it's trying to find where it's supposed to go into because there ain't nothing there right but it's at the top of your spine the bit that connects your spine to your head um if you know anything about the way that the uh the kabbalists and the khassirin speak about the way that the body is built so you'll understand immediately the spine which is called the amudha right the thing that keeps you upright it's the dimension that your body is built around ends in the going up into the brain into the brain stem which means that the connection between the intellect and the physical like your brain and your body is being connected by this little bone
