    To add,if we would know the effects of the acts we do when we step outside ourselves to help even a simple jew at the times when it goes against our nature and the future outcomes that result,we would be dancing etc.

    rabim

    1) RH 32b  ה' פקד את שרה פקדון דיחיד הוא כיון דאתו רבים מינה כרבים דמיאSarah became a rabim through all those she influenced that came into her midst.
    2) Tosfos rosh hashana 16aכמאןמצלינן האידנא אקצירי ואמריעי כרבי יוסי. וא"ת לרבנן נמי מי לא מצלינן רפאנו וברכת השנים ועוד (ז) רבי יהודה דאמר הכא אדם נידון בר"ה וגזר דין שלו נחתם ביוה"כ הא אמר בפ"ק דשבת (דף יב:) הנכנס לבקר החולה אומר המקום ירחם עליך ועל חולי עמו ישראל ואומר ר"ת דשלא יחלה ודאי לא מצלינן אלא לר' יוסי אבל שיתרפא מצלינן אליבא דכולי עלמא דמתי יחלו נגזר מתי יתרפאו לא נגזר ואמר בריש הנודר מן המבושל (נדרים דף מט.) אהך דרב יוסף קצירי קצירי ממש מריעי רבנן והשתא מצלינן אקצירי שיתרפאו (ח) ואמריעי היינו רבנן שלא יחלו (ט) ומה שמתפללין ברכת השנים היינו כדלקמן בפרקין (דף יז:) שאם פסקו גשמים מועטין שיורידם המקום בזמנן ועוד י"ל דתפלה דרבים שאני דגזר דינם נקרע כדלקמן (שם) וההיא דשבת דר' יהודה נמי יש לישב כהאי גוונא דדמיא לרבים דהוה מצלי בהדיה על כל חולים:  
    If a yachid connects to the rabim around him and davens and is nosey beol for them then he is also considered like a rabim. 
    3) 

    When one escorts a yid in his needs and connects with him then he creates a bond between the nefashos that not only is he  like a rabim but the one he influences will now also have the koach of a rabim as well.

    All Jews????

    Kavod Harav- Excellent!!!! But in the relative beginning you and your interviewer are discussing how you manage to reach so many different style of audiences. You both say we have to accept every type of Jew. But then I think I heard the interviewer say- as long as he keeps the shulchan aruch. 
    Is that accepting all Jews and respecting every Jew? And Jews that don't keep Shabbat? They aren't just as Jewish and just as beloved by Hashm??? I strongly believe that we are all in this together - whether secular kibbutznik or Charedi . I would like to hear the Rav's opinion about this. Thank you

    I think its so good that you constantly plant seeds that people, especially husband and wives and family members can learn to disagree and still show respect to one another. And I think this point is crucial and another major decision is tbat ppl have a competant Rav they consult with as it says "Assei Lechah Rav"
