kahila of lahag del Toro ladira so over the past short time I had a privilege to meet some of our my good friends from South Africa I see my friend Neil here and Jonathan I want to thank Elon for taking us around today actually it took us to one of the gold mines and it's quite interesting that South Africa and Johannesburg has one of the richest deposits of gold anywhere in the world and I couldn't help but think you know there's a principle that everything in the physical world really parallels the the physical world really parallels the spiritual universe universe so if South Africa is such a repository of zahav of gold in the physical world that must mean that the spirituality and the holy nashama is that are here are unparalleled anywhere in the world as well and that's something that I'm coming to see firsthand thank you so much for having me foreign how many days exactly are in the three weeks the title of this year is called weeks the title of this year is called Flying letters which coming off of a plane actually all the letters to me seem like they're flying off the page how many days are in the three weeks we usually call it the three weeks is that really an app description for this period of the year so we linked that last Shabbos the beginning of safer yeah Olive the word of God to me saying what do you see what do you see actually I got a Shiloh today somebody in America
