Corona: Top 10 Segulos For a Refuah Sheleima

this tour class is brought to you by torahanytime.com show me that we're recording okay good evening everyone so this is somewhat surreal um we know there are a lot of you listening out there uh unfortunately the numbers tonight of those watching the live stream are um about 10 times the amount that I want that watch regularly that's because usually we have we have a nice live unfortunately this is an empty shawl um this is the first time maybe in history of the United States for sure in the history United States that shulz have been closed there's a shulen bar Park Shoma Shabbos that's been open for 100 years or shows that have never been closed in their entire history that are closed so certainly it's an ace Sarah obviously our heart goes out to all those who are suffering and just in our show alone there are a number of uh khaverim that are sick some of them unfortunately are really not feeling well someone's in the hospital Israel should protect those communities that have not been struck yet and the revolution should send Yeshua bakarayev so the subject of tonight's year for those who are experiencing some kind of difficulty or ailment or highly or some kind of uh situation where one is not feeling well so we're looking for some segula is some kind of Supernatural spiritual remedy of course whenever we talk about school ice I'm not a big fan of school ice we know that when the banshyam brings any kind of situation is speaking to us we know the word Dev errors means a speech God is talking to us he's addressing us he's telling us something and he's not telling us something ancillary he's not here to tell us that we should say a certain you know formula from a parchment Divan sham is uh means serious business but nevertheless we do have Traditions from that there are certain specific things that we could do to alleviate and to mitigate uh the circumstance that we may find ourselves in so the subject of tonight's year are the essers 10 supernatural means that are advised by our Ghazal not just folktale not just Legend but have legitimate sources in the gamut of the traditional Jewish literature so let's begin with tells us that has 245 words and in order to complete the 248 words can I get a person's limbs because we know we have 248 limbs so here already the Macabre is telling us that one should try to say the number of words corresponding to one's limbs the schlafibo repeats Hashem MS after he's already finished the words means he says it twice and when we listen to him that Islam the missing three words says Rama by listening to say the three words we are fulfilling we are being mashlim the 246th 7th and eighth words can I get our avarim well what do you do if you are davening alone you know that used to be an academic Shyla used to joke around why would anybody uh dive in alone if you know let's say uh they were being kidnapped and they were tied to their bed but unfortunately this is not academic anymore what if somebody is davening alone now we find ourselves in a situation where I saw Absa today not only are you not allowed a diamond with the minion not only you're not not allowed to make a house in Minion not only is it a mitzro not only are you not you'd say again you're amazik anyway what do you do if you're you find yourself alone says if you find yourself alone you should have kavana amazingly after Shema you say 15 words each word begins with the letter above 15 valves six 15 times 6 is 90. what's 90 God's name is 26 plus the four letters is 30. so 30 is one name of Hashem 60 is the second name of Hashem 90 is the third name of Hashem so the six of the 15 aboves are three names of Hashem those are the missing three words now interestingly the Rama says that if for those who say Shema bianched there's another way to get the missing three words and that is by saying in other words in the introduction to Shema would be the Fulfillment of the missing 246th 247th 248th word someone tell you a little I personally do not say because I once saw that ramosha said that his personal custom was he would never say even when he died here the Ramos says that when one davins but seabor they should not say that would be a heftic between but Rama does recommend saying he would not saying have so suggested as well that the custom seems that we don't say even when you dab in but whether one does or doesn't so what do you do how do you get the 248 words so as we said Ms or you could use the 15 vovs comes the mishnaburra why should Shema have an equal number of words to the number of Limbs of a person is a remedy for your navel and an Elixir for your bones says the mishaburra quoting the Zaya the Torah brings refur to the body and to the bones in this world in the next world therefore says 248 words corresponding to the limbs of a person and as you say Shema properly pronouncing the words clearly articulately each limb of a person takes kayak from each word of Shema so in other words a person rushes through Shemar they say the word they don't say they are have with the vase they say so you never know what word corresponds to the vi ahafta it could be a very which limb corresponds to that word it could be a vital Limb and your your refraining you're preventing that limb from getting its proper nourishment in other words in order for a person to be healthy and whole they need to say each word of Shema carefully now what do you do shama only has 245 words so the Zaire says don't worry when the khazan repeats those are the missing three words however if you don't have in bitsyborg what do you do you have in mind the 15 vovs but says as I are even if you say those 15 vovs if you lose out davening but sibor we consider this is it is a health hazard that can never be made up a frightening thing therefore the zyah says it's so important to them with the minion because really the only way to bring healing to your entire system is to hear the cause and say Hashem so unfortunately we're no longer in a situation where we could have the optimum remedy through the repetition but at the very least we do have the ability to pronounce each word of Shema carefully and in a way that is an advantage that we have of you're not holding anybody back you're not waiting for anyone you know in general very important people think that davening with the minion means I'm in shul when there's a minion no davening with Dominion means you start with the tsibor so regularly a person may not have the luxury to say each word of Shema carefully and articulately but now with you could spend as much time as you want this is a way to bring healing to all your avarum your respiratory system your lungs your mouth your nose all the avara are able to get refua through the proper recitation of Shema number two School number two this is very interesting scula this is an off-sided schooler and the safer was written by a student of the Ariza who actually is the author of Maya Angelou and he's quoted to say that anyone who says with kavana will never become ill now I do have to be honest with you a careful reading of the state area it's not absolutely clear that this is what he's saying and I'll read it to you his words at number four he says if a person is wholesome in their attitudes and sustains their words with Justice he will not be sick his whole life he won't need a doctor he will not need healing and therefore you should certainly make this bracha with great khavana so kishanilla asks me in my humble opinion what would say that is saying is that if a person lives with reason and with logic and with Justice and has a proper mindset and perspective and is honest then they won't get sick they won't need a doctor and therefore we should pray to Hashem that Hashem should allow us to live this way but nevertheless it is generally understood to mean that one who says will never get sick in fact in the safe Havana he quotes of about 75 years ago we have two members of our shul who are great grandchildren of khaim Noah he said that he has a tradition from has the ability to heal even from people who are sick and need miraculous cure and therefore someone who's searching for a fua should be makbid to make ashayots so I want to tell you if Ashley has the ability to heal it certainly has the ability to prevent someone from becoming sick and therefore the the stipler recommends that in order to allow this schoola to be most effective you should be Mac a bit to say Asha yansar from a text and even better you should point to the words writes in his memoirs that we know the city of baranovic is almost synonymous with Rebecca and Wasserman Schwab says that he personally with such Focus like the way we dive in Nila so this is a great school that we have this is a great spiritual blessing that we have the ability to make many times a day so we should be having something to say this and it should ward off and heal us from number three number three is an interesting one it comes from the khadouche Marshall that is close to be at the malaria in Lublin says the Marshall who is considered the author of the amishaima one of the greatest of all the akronim he says a segulla to ward off and to get rid of hoile is to divert your mind from the sickness the more you think about it the more you focus on it the more your mind is occupied with it the more the sickness takes over the more you distract yourself from it the more you don't think about it the more your mesiach from the says the Marshall it's a segulla that the will go away that's what the martial says is what our sages teach us number four people who are sick of nothing says that if someone has sick they're looking for sagula they're looking for a remedy they want people to dive in for them Davin for yourself says number eight on the sheets you need to pray for yourself like we find in Hamish Ishmael was sick he was dying hugger was dominating for him Ishmael was happening for himself the plastic says alteria Don't Be Afraid like him God is listening to the sound to the voice of the Gnar says Rashi from gimmel from here we learn yaphet philas you could have someone diving for the trailer and the coil is dominating for himself more potent more powerful is for themselves than for someone else davening for them the most important remedy for a hoile is for themselves that will be more effective than the Phila of friends family and so forth however we do have Anita number five foreign a wise man could atone even when the son of ram gam Leo became sick he sent word he sent him it's an interesting thing the gemara doesn't say if someone has someone who's sick you should go to at Sadiq doesn't say go to a righteous person doesn't say go to a macabo it doesn't say go to about doesn't say go to a man it doesn't say go to a Jewish leader no go to someone who knows gamara in fact the ramban says that when Israel advised moisha that his job is too hard and Moshe was explaining the people are keep on coming to me people are coming to me to seek out God what did moisture mean that people were coming to him to seek out God says ramban I'm so busy people come to me to pray for their six this is this is an ancient practice we go to godoila Israel who knows Kim to Daven for us doesn't say it's a but the main ingredient is in fact I am he brings a tradition he has from the Saba khadisha who would say he would tell people why do you spend so much money on doctors they charge so much money and then we're not here to advise people not to go to doctors we'll speak about that soon go to give them pigeon and they should learn and dive in and this is okay so that's School of number five so on the one hand the hoyla himself is invested with a special power to have his filos answer and maybe the reason is because the shrina is above the head of the but still that's not the only reason because his filos is answered even more than someone who's also standing by his bed and davening there's a concept that the trilah of the themselves has a special potency and there's a concept that The Feelers are very powerful as well number six there was once a very hush of time and you cannot get a word in with him he would not stop he would not break he would not shatter with anyone what are you doing what are you so busy with he's collecting they asked him why are you so busy collecting so he said he was once Gravely ill and he went to the stapler for an eight son the stipler said you know every morning we say foreign ER typically you would think that what missile comes after obam you visit a Gravely ill person the next Mitzvah you'll probably do is escorting the body to the klura why do why do haza why did the mishna interpose says the stapler that's to teach is the stop gap between bikogelem and levia then this of helping poor yes of helping you then get married is the stopgap measure to stop someone from going from because somebody could be Gravely ill the capacity of afnasis has the ability to save their life that's another school that we have from God that you saw from the stipler the Mitzvah of is a great segulla for number seven this one's like a cup this one's a trick from the Malaysia number 16 on the sheets says you know sometimes you're davening and you're worried that maybe the malachim are gonna accuse they're gonna be my catchwig then they're going to prosecute you're afraid to Daven even what could you do to ensure that the Angels won't prosecute against you are tefila here's the trick praise Hashem let's say when you hit when you say the words say Hashem creates or when you're saying in the second essay praise Hashem that he heals the sick in heaven mind the sick person when you say Rift you heal have in mind the sick person when you praise Hashem because when you praise Hashem the angels will have to answer I mean and once the answer remained they can't prosecute anymore because they just confirmed that Hashem does that so how will it look if after they confirm that Hashem does that this now when you pray that Hashem should do it they're going to start Prosecuting it that's self-incriminating and self-inditing and therefore await us so to speak outsmart the makachu game is You Begin by praising Hashem having in mind already at the time that you had in mind Hashem Hashem already will answer your this is the secret of yes first praise Hashem because when you praise Hashem the angels will answer amen once they did that they've put themselves between a rock and a hard place they cannot retract on that sagula number eight this is a good one this is not a hard one but hopefully we don't have to wait until now until then I want to bring this I want to thank my good friend from eduair rabbitsi marmursteen who brought this to my attention foreign person should always set his table on Shabbos even if you can only only eat a little bit you should set the table mats the gemara continues Rashi says drinking hot water is a refua bathing in hot water as a refuge says healing hot stuff and monster Chavez brings refua to gamara drink hot water I'm not so Shabbos drink a hot tea I had coffee take a hot shower eat fresh bread now I don't know if your wife's gonna go for that tell you know right after Shabbos you want her to break khala that's not an easy one but you turn on your hot shower thrown on the kettle turn on your urn have a hot drink it's a rings of food who says the gemara there's nothing more definitive than that if the gemara says it you could take it to the bank in fact there's an incredible Gematria and the safer touches LaRoche viche he brings a remise from his friend robertia Hoffman the son of rabbman a robin New York the gamatria of malugma is 1079 the exact Camacho event mayor of you want to live to 120 the school has been made of 1079 that's what it says about that it says 1079 having had on Saturday night is a remedy okay number nine a letter from the sniper excuse me a letter from the briskarov from the safer is the base brisk there is who did not exactly want to listen to the medical recommendations he was scared that the food in the hospital did not meet to his conscious and he was not so keen on listening to every detail that the doctor said the the briskarov writes to him be very careful be very machimir about your the way you listen to your doctor foreign listen to your medicine listen to the medical advice you're giving away Tim government do not refrain from anything relevant to your health he calls this is a matter of saving your life the midst of saving your life is very great it's a very big Mitzvah to save lives it's such a big Mitzvah that through being careful in the midst of nothing in other words this is understood to means is so great that it's a school offer of meaning if somebody takes extra precautions to guard their health guarding your health is such a great mitzvah that it's a school law for a fool not that it will directly cause your rafua don't think that if you wash your hands that will bring you health no that's not what the briskarov is saying the rebanish home will bring you health the Mitzvah of his status is such that since it's so important to guard your soul the extra efforts you put into guarding your soul is such a great Mitzvah that that will be a school up for or a fullima and then rev Miller here brings a letter from your friend you need to be Michelle yourself and just like trying to help heal a friend is part of because helping heal yourself as part of biker khalam we see from this letter is efforts made to heal are part of the mitsubish and the mitzab applies to the himself himself also has to be mavaka himself and part of that is taking his own medicine so from here we learned an important thing that one has to be mahmir and take extra precautions in guarding their health because that itself is a great Mitzvah that has the capacity as a school on to bring the foshulaima and finally we come to the most important school at all of all that is you know somebody once came to the stipler because somebody once came to a raft you know I'm sorry I was like to say that was that opinion of Ben and opinion I bet it's like 84 Chinese some sort of shock said what do you mean talmatara can I get coulomb when we say tamatar is equal to all the Mitzvahs that means it's equal to all the Mitzvahs and all the schoolies so one word of Tyra is also like 84 taneism so you ready for this Kula and it's safe for Allah advised the school that you heard from romanticio Davis that he has a Kabbalah that if someone is ill they should learn a perak they should learn a Sim in of the ion likewise the stipler says that if someone is sick they should take out one of the sifri aquarium and learning and that godo will be mamlets upon you in shamayim so the simple chat is when you attach yourself to the words of a certain God they will advocate for you but it's more than that because the gemara says in arabin like we started that kriya shama brings healing well certainly tamatoa brings healing if your head hurts be involved in learning Torah Mark it's a Garland of Grace for your head if you have a throat sore yeah it says you have intestinal pain yes of your bones your whole body hurts learn Torah Shane Torah brings her forward to the whole goof to every bone Lim sinew cell atom of the body and if the Torah has the capacity to heal if it's then certainly has the capacity to prevent any kind of macrame the Martian and Prima Gotham point out you're not allowed to learn to be having that it should be a refuge you know you learn so here we have 10 great gifts from my brothers for themselves number five to be asked to pray for you number six to be involved in number seven to be Misha bayach Hashem that is and that sort of forces the malachim to concede and back off of their kitchen number eight to have hot number nine to be Zahir MP clock and that fish and finally number 10 the Tama Torah can I get coulomb now here's a very short section I'm going to tell you very quickly in a few moments another seven School Ice which maybe are not as based in uh writes number 25 on your sheet to take bread bring it up to the roof and feed birds but I have a better idea if you live by yourself so go up to your roof and feed the birds chances are you have some uh you have a wife at home you have kids at home why don't you feed them clear off after them be Mirage him on them I guarantee you the revolution prefers you be merak him on them and I guarantee that if you are Moroccan on them then another school is specifically if somebody has respiratory ailments they shall learn schreifa of the lung and learning that Beyond will be a scula for a fool in your respiratory system says Shabbos is a school of Phil refun like the person says if you just designate and dedicate yourself to shifta Shabbos then the rapper you're rapping and finally we hope not to have to wait for this but matzah it's brought from the naftali of RAB shits brings rafua Matt says the bread of healing and specifically the afikoying is wishing everyone a wonderful night looking forward this week is thanks for listening you've just experienced another Torah class brought to you by torahanytime.com
