Season 6

Imagine a world where your faith, not money, cognitive abilities, or inherited support, becomes your ultimate salvation. Yes, that's the intriguing exploration we undergo in this enlightening episode, where we reevaluate the concept of hope and its profound role in our lives. We analyze the various elements people place their hope in, from material wealth to emotional support and the inefficacy of misplaced hope in fleeting things, which we term 'emptiness and deceptive nothingness.'

Drawing inspiration from Hanukkah, this episode emphasizes the transformative power of placing hope in the omnipresent and almighty blessed be He. We discuss how this leap from the natural to the supernatural can lead to miraculous salvation. The conversation delves into how hope in Hashem can lead to self-strengthening and galvanizing your mentality and resources. This enlightening discussion is a gateway to understanding the essence of hope as we learn from it, Chanukah. So, join us; let's redefine hope, your ultimate beacon in life.

Man can go about 40 days without food, about three days without water and, believe it or not, the human body can last almost eight minutes without air.

00:00:17.873 --> 00:00:28.355
But no mortal man, no human can last for even one second without hope.

00:00:28.355 --> 00:00:36.527
Hope is a necessity, emuna is a must.

00:00:36.527 --> 00:00:44.152
The question is, in what do you place your hope in?

00:00:44.152 --> 00:00:46.204
But everyone needs hope.

00:00:46.204 --> 00:01:01.365
Some people will place their hope in their cash, their bank accounts, their Benjamins, and that does bring them some sense of life and salvation, but it's limited.

00:01:01.365 --> 00:01:16.004
Others will place their hope, their trust, their faith, their emuna in their cognitive capacities, while others will place their hope in mommy and daddy, but everybody needs hope.

00:01:20.844 --> 00:01:41.694
But on Hanukkah we remind ourselves that there are those that bow down to emptiness and deceptive nothingness and to a God that does not grant them salvation, to a Buddha, to a totem pole, to the money, to the cognitive self-abilities and powers.

00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:45.146
But on Hanukkah we bow down.

00:01:45.146 --> 00:02:10.850
And when you place your hope in your faith and your trust in the all-powerful, all-mighty, omnipresent, akhadash Bhargha blessed be he you don't play by the rules of Teva of nature, you graduate to the world of supernatural and you see miraculous salvation.

00:02:10.850 --> 00:02:19.614
For it matters not what you place your match upon whether it be vinegar or oil.

00:02:19.614 --> 00:02:30.050
Misha Amar, lashem and Yadlik will also say that vinegar should light, and Misha Amar, that candles last for one day, says no, now it lasts for eight days because I make the rules.

00:02:30.050 --> 00:02:34.026
So it would seem to be a smart investment.

00:02:34.026 --> 00:02:39.427
After all, we all need hope, but the question is, what do you place your hope in?

00:02:39.427 --> 00:03:05.887
So, if you need a miraculous salvation, hope in Hashem, place your trust in your faith in Akhadash Bhargha and when you are kave el Hashem, that truly does lead to Akhazak v Amitsli Bekha, the strengthening of yourself, to a galvanizing of your mentality and your resources, and this is one of the essential lessons that we learn in the Khamaka.
