    לא מחשבותי כמחשבותיבם ולא מעשי כמעשיכם. We just can’t understand.

    Right – haniglos lonu; Hashem indeed wants us to understand the world we were created in and the purpose of our lives.

    Nothing you see is real. You don’t exist.

    As human beings we are the luckiest people to be the only ones with the gift of free-will to choose between good and bad. No one else in the entire world from animals to demons to even Angels have the gift of free-will as human beings were given as a gift.

    As a priceless gift, don’t take it for granted and choose wisely between doing only what’s for your good and not vice versa C”V sinning.

    Every human being is sent down to this temporary physical world with a mission to accomplish to complete and be ready for the true world above. As it says “this temporary physical world is just a sidewalk to the real world above”

    Think about these things and prepare yourself NOW for the true world above. How many of us are even half ready for the true world when a person’s neshama is removed from him and he is unexpectedly removed from this temporary physical world below? MILLIONS of lives have already been unexpectedly removed immediately from this temporary physical world due to
    COVID-19 this is besides for many other tragic sicknesses people have unexpectedly passed away from.

    Prepare yourself now for the true world above by spending your time wisely serving Hashem and preparing for the true world above.

    UJM: I was hoping there would be at least one “Hitchhiker’s” fan here!

    5T: To be honest, I only know of 42 because it used to be an insider’s joke when this coffee room first started.

    Just ask Moderator-42.

    I’m not sure if it was an insider’s joke or if some people just hadn’t heard of the book that quotes 42 as the answer to that question.
    He was definitely a fan.

    @uju Um akshully, that’s just the answer to the Great Question, not the meaning of life.

    We are born not to gain nehama dekesufa (bread of shame), a free handout, so Hilel with his few words describes a purpose. אם אין אני לי מי אני if I am not for myself to work and improve myself, who is? וכשאני לעצמי מה אני and if I only care for myself, what am I, an animal? אם עכשיו אימתי if not now when? A person does not know how long one lives?

    @common-saychel “Chicken Soup”? “Who is He”? “I Don’t Wanna Go To Shul”? “One Eyed Want More Flying Lukshen Kugel Eater”?

    “42” raises a shailoh of hukas goyim
    We hold that life = 18 (in base 10, that would 22 in hex) and excessive in binary.

    “וְזֶה כָּל הָאָדָם וְתַכְלִית בְּרִיאָתוֹ וּבְרִיאַת כָּל הָעוֹלָמוֹת עֶלְיוֹנִים וְתַּחְתּוֹנִים לִהְיוֹת לוֹ דִירָה זוֹ בְּתַּחְתּוֹנִים”

    akuperma, I don’t know what you talking about.
    18 decimal = 12 hex, 42 decimal = 2A hex

    The dira, Hashem’s residence in this world, is only possible if we unite in it. If someone is a baal gaive, Hashem says, אין אני והוא יכולים לדור בדירה אחת, I and he cannot live together in one residence. He pushes Hashem out by saying, You belong above and not on earth to be masgiach, privide for us. The Rav Abarnel interprets, lo siso es shem, don’t elevate Hashem by saying that He is so great who does not want anything to do with us.
