What’s said in this shiur
The opening of this shiur, in Vayimaen’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.
Rabosai, Vayimaen Yidden, Ah, geshmak! There’s nothing like a Vayimaen Yid. I have a geshmake message for you, a Simchadike message. As we go to weddings, what is the peak of the wedding? What is the highest moment by a wedding? The Chuppah. They're getting married. Baruch Hashem, he gave the ring, we say the Brachos, done. What is now? The most exciting thing would be to start dancing, leibedik. All of a sudden, before that, there is something that we do. Some people say it, some people sing it. We say, If I forget you, Yerushalayim, may my right hand forget [its skill]. If I do not bring up Yerushalayim at the beginning of my joy. What is “the beginning of my joy”? The peak of the wedding is the Chuppah. And on that moment, before we're going to dance and celebrate, I'm thinking of something very important. Yerushalayim. One time, one of the musicians, not a Yid, asked me this question.
