Dark & Shady - Sheidim, Demons & Harmful Spirits in Jewish Thought

a number of places in which discusses what we call shadim in English known as demons as loose if I'll call it loosely translated what demons are all in the same category anyways so this came up in the at least we're learning zavlim and giml as we know when a person goes into ava he has to be careful for mazik one of the things a person has to be careful when he goes into a barren place is for mazik because they find themselves always in barren places that's a and b even more interesting gumar is of course the famous gar is if you ever want to know what you are surrounded by they're there when you're sleeping they know when you're awake if you want to know what's going on garra says that you put sand around your bed And you could see chicken feet all over the place because that is the appearance of what these demons look like. Okay, that is the appearance of what they look like because they have feet such as that which I'm not going to get into the reason why for that point. Okay, so at this stage we see clearly from at least these two gumars and there more gumar coming later in also that discuss this concept. Now before we start explaining what these things appear like I just want to display to show that these things exist all over shas. They exist all over besides the which we just mentioned now in the also mentions in which we say if a person extinguishes a candle because he's worried about in the area because you're worried about it so then you are you're not for whatever reason the says that if someone is in a pit and he's screaming give a get to my wife. He's screaming. He's screaming out to give a get to his wife because he knows he's going to die in the process of being in this deep pit. So then you have to make sure that he's not a shade. The garra always checks up to make sure that it's a real person and the garra gives him to make sure that he has a shadow a shadow of a shadow and then you know that it is really a person because shadim as we'll see soon do not have shadows for the reason we'll see soon. The Quran Giten also says inv that sometimes um the uh the shade will appear in the of a person. We found it by Yahushua that Yeshua was worried when he bumped into the when he bumped into that person who was holding a sword that wanted to kill him the brings that he said shalom and the Yeshua was checking are you ashade or you not ashamed in other words when he was checking to see are you on our side or not he actually wanted to make sure that he is on our side of course there's a very famous gor in gim and s which brings with hame schom was a very uh smart man and he was able to capture not only animals but also shade him. He actually wanted to deal with a guy named Ashmadai. Don't mess around with him. That he wanted to help him find the Shamir worm in order to take care of the beta mikdash. And he needed his services in order to do that. But in doing so, he got himself in some major trouble. I'm not going to go through the whole entire but the guy basically threw out melik. He metamorphosized himself to look like him and he was with me all thousands of thousand wives. So it's the moral of the lesson is watch out for these guys because they could be extremely dangerous almost lost everything because he was dealing with these dangerous shadim okay exist are all over the par says the over there says that person should not go ahead and give aim a type of corban which we'll speak out what that is to the is then it's to go out and do that says who are these is really normally a goat but they also take the appearance or the name of a which again this also we will speak out but here we haveim that also has it there's also and which give a reference to the idea of shadim the moral of the story are these things are real. They're not a fallacy. They exist. They're in the gar all over the place. They're inukin. Okay, clear. Everyone's with me. Everyone's convinced. You got it. We're good. Now, obviously, I'm coming to a fuk. I'm coming to say not like it's not me. It's everybody and everybody who everybody would come to disagree with the great Rambam Mosha Barman who very famously said in hisari he also writes about it in the that this whole shading thing is a one big bluff. It's a it's he says it's for amaratim or for people who think of scary spooky things and this who watch too many movies that's what he makes it sound like he sounds like people are that's not really something existent you should know not so many people know this the miri this may in Sanhedrin but in general the miri is very much like the raam he takes the ra people are familiar with raam that he's a little bit more if I can use the word a naturalist he's more into not doing superficial zahim things that are too much he tries to make things as down to earth as possible and the mi you should know follows suit very much after him the mirror was only discovered approximately 100 years ago so the people are he's not very quoted very often but he also does that lisa I think everybody knows all the from the beginning to the end whether it's the or the in his uh in his say for of chuvas or the red vas and gimmel and more popularly the vagon now the vagon little bit you know it's not nice for him to say this he's not really but he's qualified as But he very famously says in simuet he writes these words on the raam this raam that says that shadim don't really exist for alko they already hit the ram on the head I said not something that anyone that anyone should say such a thing they already hit the ram on the head for saying such wild things they are go he quotes kamaras all over shass he quotes all over shas he says these things exist they're feel don't start getting he says but he said because the philosophia the too much attributing himself to philosophy got to his head that's why he said he hit him on his head he said since he was so busy with philosophy so therefore he was denying things which are straight gumarot more or less good yeah that's the kal that we have over here >> the rabb was the one who I don't know if the words denial But he kind of played it down. He said, "They're not really. It's just like potential powers and this, but it's not really something that really exists." Like I said, we know the says one of the 10 things that were created on Mash was he has to give answers to all these gumas and he kind of does, but you know the rule that when you give too many answers to too many questions, it's already like you can't there's got to be a ghoul to how far you can take it. Anyways, so this is our idea that we know is they appear all over the place and they are uh extremely relevant. Now in that in where it discusses the idea of the which we said are like goats which are kind of like the already speak over there the already says that he already brings down about the it's a very long sworno the swornos are usually very laconic he's very brief and straight to the point it's an absolutely beautiful sworno it all sticks out my head when I went through the sworn that was like the one that hit me like the most cuz it's such a incredible surro. And over there he basically says how many people would worship or they wouldn't necessarily worship them as of a desire per se but they would feed the demons and they would feed the demons in order to get their bidding from the demons. It was a way of getting certain thing in order to make a relationship a connection with the demons in order to get what they can get out of them and he would help them with surah call in some way that they can do that of course he brings from the gumar an arvin about yph shida now ysef shida he was a nice guy he he was he was a good kind of shade he wasn't so bad but the gumar brings over there that he was over the tumin on on uh on Shabbat he used to fly from one place of of the world to the next he would all over the place with naughty naughty boy wasn't so a thing and the kulin also brings that there was a shed in the house of ravashi in the house of ravashi at the time that he didn't raashi was able to capture him or whatever it was I'm just trying to point out that he brings down it's real and people sometimes would capture him and feed him we're going to speak about why and what but I'm just trying to give you a picture of of uh of what we're discussing here okay let's describe what these things are made of. Okay, what are these existing things made out of? Okay, what I'm going to say now is based on straight. First of all, the I just told you the ram the safer of the safer theem is in we spoke about it in the share a little bit and the basically the behind the way it's understand is a malik an angel is completely spiritual he's what we call he's completely spiritual he's made of spiritual elements he's completely just ru that's really what he is that he's a spiritual aspect you touch it, you can't feel it. A malik is just an existential entity, right? We are humans made of the famous four elements which we're quite familiar with. A and aar, right? We're made of what we call ruach is the spirit and ash is fire and mim is water and then afar is the ground. Those are the four elements that make us up. Okay, those are the four elements that make us up. Shim are a breed ai as they say they're a half and half between one and the other. Half and halfs always have the most trouble with soim don't know half of they're half and half. They have a little bit of both sides. They are made of two spiritual elements of and again are not made of any elements. They're spiritual. The shim have half of we we have we have four elements and they have two of them. Afar and Mayim are physical, right? Dirt and water are physical elements. They don't have those. They didn't get those. They only got the other two which is fire and ru and wind. That's what they got which are of course we see much more spiritual things. And that's what it means that we created on the mid actually the rav the bartinur. And I'm not going looking very far on that mission says what does it mean? So started the process of creating them. He threw on them. He threw on them and then bing. Oh, what a bummer. He ran out of time. He wasn't able to do it because Shabbat. So therefore, he was not able to finish and they were an unfinished product. They never got the physical part. They only got the spiritual part. So it ends up that they are as we say a little bit they have a little bit of each. Okay. He says what does it mean to their men? It means is coming to be also that were created on vain but they're lacking something. They're not finished. Why am I mentioning this? So you know first of all about them. There's a lot of things you'll learn. But one thing I want to tell you and that's an important factor is because of this they are jealous of people. How to take that makes you feel good. No shadim are actually jealous of you because they would love to have a body. It's a bummer not to have a body. It's not sobbach. You only have a spir kind of spiritual entity but they don't have the physical body. They're just kind of like a walking shadow around here. And the poor guys have chicken legs. You know, it's not. So since it's not so enjoyable, they are actually jealous of us. Why am I telling you they're jealous of us? That's where their point of kit comes. That's why they can actually be a little bit dangerous. If a person utilizes them incorrectly, he can actually get hurt or in trouble. Like I said, Melik almost got he got thrown off his throne and whatever. A lot of long story over there, but you see that he was actually put himself in physical danger as a result of it. Okay, this is the description of how they look. I will present to you a garra in also from which I'm sure you guys are remember and over there the garra actually says that malim are angels people are people and shadim are in the middle three things shadim are similar to malim to angels and three things they are similar to people mish like I told you half and half they have two elements and not two elements they're missing So the three things they're similar to people is because they actually are purvu they die they don't live forever they die like people they live long lives this guy Ashai lived almost a thousand years they do have a long lifespan because they eat healthy and that's it and they can take care of themselves they do a lot of exercise they fly around all over the place so they're very healthy people they're able to stay around for a long time second of all they're purvu they also reproduce meaning they don't just um do the amoeba parmesium thing right they actually have to have a male and a female type of phenomenon and also they're and they also have to eat and drink which that we're about to we discuss. Okay. So they have these three aspects which are similar to us but they have three spiritual aspects three superhuman aspects and from here we get all our um all our superhero type of phenomena they get from here. First of all, they have wings like the which means they're able to flap around and fly. They're able to get around from one place of the world to the next. And also meaning they're not limited by space. They are not bound to space. They're able to move from one place to the the next freely. And also they're able to see a good what does it mean? They could see somewhat of the future. They're able to see someone of the future. What's going to happen? They cannot change the future, but they're someone able to see the future because just like they are above space, they're also above time. The more spiritual you are, the more above time you are, you're able to see a little bit. Uh you're able to see a little bit above. And that's why people like to hang out with these guys. Even though it could be dangerous, it's fun to hang out with these shindalas, these shade of them. You know why? Because through them, I might be able to see what's the right stock to invest in. No, they're going to tell me apples in you should know. Put it in 10 years, you're going to be you're going to be a rich man. So, it's very good to be able to see where the future, right? That's that's a that's a good thing. So, that's why people are very into trying to deal with them even though, like I said, it could be a dangerous venture. It could be something dangerous, but it's still um it's still worth it. Okay, that's that's that. Now, how do I get on their good side? You guys want to know after this convincing cogent uh speech that I'm giving here? I'm here. This is this is all about a business transaction here. I'm just trying to get trying to get you guys to be rich here. So, how do I convince these guys to be able to be on my good side? Okay, the answer is you have to feed them well. They need a certain food. They are limited to a certain diet. You remember I told you they're very healthy. They fly around all over the place. They do a lot of exercise. They need a good diet. What do they eat in order to keep them in place? They are very limited in their diet. They can't just go ahead and eat carrots and lettuce. They're much more limited. They're not physical. Sayso in that piece. They need some type of food which is extremely spiritual. It has a small not a spiritual food that doesn't help me. has to have a small amount of physicality but it's a spiritual physical food okay it's a food which is spiritual kind of so the first thing I think when I hear that and this I mentioned in the life after death sharim is of course the mun the mun which we ate on the uh 40 during the 40 years of the midbar was an extremely spiritual food it was made of these little coriander seeds right it was made of little things that are duspas and they um we are able to eat on it of course we Oh, it tasted. Why did it taste like anything you wanted? Just for the fun of it. No, because something spiritual is not limited to place. It it it was able to whatever I whatever I had in mind. That's what it tasted like. That's what it was like. Of course, we know that we had no extract. When a person was eating it, he didn't have to go to the bathroom the whole 40 years. Okay? So, he was able to digest it properly. It digests completely. It's called lemarim because it goes and it got absorbed into your whole body perfectly man. Fantastic. That man is the food of the malim. Okay, which are the higher worlds already? We're in the higher worlds of Bria. But that's the food of the bria. That's not the food of the shadim. I tricked you. You probably thought I have to get some mud on my hands here. No, I have an easier solution. That's not because the like we said the shadim are somewhat physical. Mun is even too spiritual for them, believe it or not. What do they eat? You know what they eat? You look at that big sworn over there. You know, you know what they eat? They eat blood. Vampires. They go ahead and that's what they consume. Hemoglobin. That's what they're into. Eating blood. Why blood? That just sounds so I'm telling you all the go get their stuff from us. Everything from the beginning to the end. This stuff has been written se not centuries millennia before any of these guys with the big fangs who are coming to you in the middle of the night and and and chopping it was written way before that and they copy everything from us. That's why I kind of like these things. You just realize how much literature the have the have completely ripped off of Judaism and just made money off of us. We deserve uh what do you call what's it called? Percentages royalties. We deserve royalties. >> We made most of [laughter] it. He's saying we made the movies anyways. Warner Brothers and this. He's right. That's true. Anyways, so why is it that blood is so luscious to them? So listen to this. We all know the tell us the source of life is blood. If your blood stops running through your arms, it feels like a dead piece of skin. Feels like it feels like 10 10 lbs of meat. It's the incredible thing when your blood is running through your stream is it's light. You can go up. It can fly. It's incredible. Carry a dead body and carry a live body. Everybody knows the difference of the weight. It's a difference in also about this phenomenon which is not for now. But we see that is the it gives the life bread. What we call the the spirit of life. The ru comes through what we call dam. Oh, what did I just say? I saidim. So inside of dam lies ru oh it has ru in there I love ru is great shadim live by ru remember what they're made up of four elements one of those elements was ruak and you know what their other element that they're made up of is what's your blood system why is blood system we are warm-blooded creatures more or less and we all know the reason why we're warm-blooded is due to the fact that our you said it warm-blooded Right? The co of our blood is there to warm up our bodies. So then everyone's hemoglobin, everyone's blood uh circulatory system, you have also the property of ru which is wind and you have the property of esh of fire. Oo that sounds so yummy for a shade. That is so y that's exactly what they are. We like to eat meat because we're meat, right? We're like meat eaters. We're carnivorous a little bit because we liked things. All right. Sometimes you have to eat your broccoli. What can you do? Because you're forced into it. But be corrupt, right? That's that's where it comes from. So the that is why they love to have blood because it connects exactly to their au. And this really explains a lot of things because the second you realize that you can understand why dam could have properties of tuma or bringing shadim or bringing tuma to the world. I'll take a very simple example. This I didn't see inside of a book, but I think it's obvious. Everybody calls all the time when they have to go to a cemetery and their wife wants to go for a relative. Why do they go? Oh, my wife is pregnant. Am I allowed to go? Is she allowed to go this and that? That you should know the question is fine. It's a good question, but it's a mistake. Most people make a mistake. The is or the problem for a woman to go to the is now when she's pregnant when she's pregnant is usually better. The problem is when she is tame, when she's having her cycle during that time of month, as we say, why? Because blood brings on mazikin. It's a very kimikatric time. It's not something that's a very ample time for women. Stay away from dead people. That's where all the mazik are. All the mikin are hanging out in the you just read about when you walked into ava, you walked into a desolate place, there are mazik all over the place. They're there to get you. a woman who's during that time of the month, it's not good idea to go to that time. So, it's not a fool when she's pregnant, it's usually even better, right? Then she's usually okay. It's not such a big deal. So, we see that's why it comes. Now, again, this is not always, if I could say, democratically correct to say that, oh, women are tummy. But we have sukim about it. We just read about it in last week's para. You don't have to look so far. Even Lavan, who thinks Lavven is a Russia? I wrote the fact that he's a Russia. He's a good for nothing, right? is a mean evil descript the man has the best son-in-law four times four and he and look what he does to him this evil person what does he do I'm sure he did not keep Shabbat I have a very strong feeling he didn't keep kosher he goes to his daughter he's begging for his like he's crazy about it's mamish like drugs he needs to have these trim it's like he he he puts them in his in his thing right he he smokes up all the time with these trfim he needed his looking desperately for them he goes to the last available spots to his daughter and she says, "I'm sorry, papa. I can't get up. It's derking." It's derkingly. GET UP. I want to see what's under. Don't lie. Don't do She's a mash. I know. I know your stick. Get up. What does he do? He runs with his tail between his legs. RUNS AWAY FROM HER. STAY AWAY. HIS OWN DAUGHTER. He doesn't want anything to do with her. He's not even married to the woman, right? When you're married, so you're supposed to run away. But and now YOU'RE RUNNING. IT'S YOUR DAUGHTER. WHAT DO YOU CARE? Says the Ramb. You see from here when a woman is going through that time period they were off limits they had as we know in halaka they had their own special chair own special I'm afraid to say what I'm allow the camera they put in a separate room I'm not kidding when they were like in a totally separate section in a totally separate thing that's brought down it's brought down in dump in your day over there so we see that there is such an idea of being pushed away of being and the reason is because the dam brings out the of these of the spirits of the negative spirits which can be extremely dangerous. You got it? So, it's something that is very real, something very uh something very uh something that's very uh very real about it. Now, the I mentioned to you before the Rambam. So, this I don't know if this Ram 100% works with the previous Rambam, but the Ram also says I'm just advancing here inv there's a group of people known as the Sava who they worship the Shadim the Ramban. He says there it's called necromancia and there's groups of people who worship to the shadim they also do their their shadim tricks and it's called necromancia that they go ahead and try to get to the spirits a very Indian type of things all the ho the dancing and this and that is usually getting to the good spirits and the bad spirits and trying to push away the bad spirits which what's they're referring to over here now having said that says the this is very typical of guide to the perplexity does a lot of this but over here is for our subject he basically Ally says that the way they would worship them is by taking blood which he says is they held it was very very bad stuff. They would try to stay away from it but they would take it and drink the blood because that was their way of being able to talk or relate to again the dalids. Why? For the reasons I told you before. You can do a lot of fancy stuff with it. Maybe you can even fly with it without a cape and you can also go ahead and and see the future and do a lot of good stuff with it. So they would actually drink this stuff and he says that's the reason says the Rambam why we are user and eating blood not everybody likes to give you know the whole morning of is all about that and in the he writes that's the reason why we don't eat blood because we stay away from these types of sorceries which are completely it's brought down that you're not allowed to do anything in talking to the shim it's called speaking to the is also is not allowed so part of it is eating is eating this blood or drinking this blood in order to be able to make this relationship to be able to make this connection. also says the Rambam another when a person kills when you kill certain animals there's a there's a of it's brought in that that we know that it's a whole that a person is supposed to cover the blood of a not when you kill most of the times we're killing cows and sheep or whatever and that you don't have to cover only by a wild animal and chickens there's the idea of why do you have to cover up their blood the Answer is says the raam for the same reason because we don't want the mikim to come and uh what do you call it the food to abduct the food or to um to uh to mama the food to take advantage of the food okay it's an order to avoid all these types of things so these are what they said another of oda that they say is they used to have blood baths now I think this is partial it's my own addition I think it's obvious there's no question that we always read oh this parro guy was such a Russia he's good for nothing yet he killed 500 babies every day in order to make blood baths. Couldn't they think of something nicer? Just make a pool just to get them the hose and just put water. It's like a very frustrating type of thing. They had to kill so many things just for a stupid blood bath. But the answer is this is what he meant cuz he was going to get help from the from the other side from the wrong side by swimming in blood. He was feeding them he was giving them sustenance. He was helping them out and then they were able to heal him. If he got healed in the end, I don't know. But in the end of the day, that's the reason why these things are done. So all these explanations are here to show you that there is reality to this phenomenon. It's something that uh definitely exists and uh it's something that's if I could say it was always here. I do want to mention I told you that the Rambam says it's uh these things are all a facade. So some people say they say this Katskar, but I actually saw a midrash that they learned from a midrash. The kudsk would say from the time the ram was the godor. God from the time the raam said shadim don't exist they stopped existing. If you're wondering why it's okay nowadays and we're a lot more lenient these days is from the time the raam decided that they're not around. They were around all the time. No way they're around. But from the time the raom said they're not around. Now you know why we have a little bit more of a calm scenario around us. We don't feel this, right? We don't feel going ahead and taking advantage of us, right? You understand? The reason why is because the Rama made this. So listen to a midr incredible midrash. from all the midrash embraces is the longest midrush that exists. It's it's almost it's humongous. And he writes over there. On the day that Moshe stopped putting up the Mishkan, he writes over there, what's the midra says from the time that Moshe put up the Mishkan? He was able to terminate the from being around when the B mikd is around the Mishk's around. So he terminates through the Mishk was able to do. They bring a raz that what does it mean? Call it mosha. Mosh Mosha barman right you understand is the ram is the ram that from Mosha was around that was the mazikim from being around we see that mazikim are real they're really there's numbers of stories about um about them that exist I'll tell you one that uh it's a it's a real story that happened it's brought in the safer hayosher okay now before I say the story I want to tell you that clearly we said like before they always hang out in barren places not around like inval before a person goes into the bathroom there's a certain it's brought in there's a certain things that you have to say before you walk into a bathroom which we don't do anymore because we don't have mikim like I just told you so since the beta is a place that was dangerous you would say something before you would walk in or an empty field it's a very famous gamarra in kaducian onet by me it's very famous cuz I remember when I was in seventh grade we didn't listen to the rabbi at all I don't remember one one thing that ever happened in that in that class the whole seventh grade I do remember one time a substitute came was a very smart rabbi cuz substitute would be haunted haunted right he would be haunted completely what happened he came and he learned with us a garra what he spoke about in garra that there was in the shul a demon there was a shade going around and we were also interested to hear this and in this in the sh this demon was going around and a bay came to visit for Shabbat. So there was a accept they accepted amongst each other no one invite a bay to his house for Shabbat. Everyone leave a bay in the house because a bay I want him to get rid of this demon. He's he's got the power to be able to do it. But Kitser Abay was left desolate in this empty sh which was in the middle of the forest. Everybody leaves and da appears this sevenheaded monster. Imagine seventh graders hearing this like wow this is great stuff. A seven-headed monster and a with every bow that he did he knocked off one of the heads and he was able to successfully get rid of the shade. So you just see that when people are left desolate. So this is what happened. This is the reason another again come into very often have a list of but here's another where it appears besides the fact that before you go into you have to be careful besides the fact that there's an is speaking to the there's also which we have inv that of course we know on Friday night we say a after the reason is because the shs used to be out in the wilderness in the midbar and if everybody would leave and leave someone alone there. So that would be dangerous just like happened to a bay. So therefore we say an extra prayer in order to make sure that no one leaves anyone alone that everyone will be around and everyone leaves together. I don't know if I'd be going to shul if I was in that such a situation. Was that scary? But anyways that's uh that's what they did. So we see >> say again >> I didn't hear that says that there's no mazik zot over there talks about zugot baby zugot talks about mazik you have to show me you're talking right I know I know it discussed mik and the of zuk I don't remember saying that [snorts] but many of the gumar I think were in so I'm surprised Um um okay I'll I'll tell you let me finish with this because I see we're really short on time. Let me tell you a couple ways to protect yourself from I'll end with the story a couple ways to protect you from is first of all we all know in the end of in the which is in we know there's such a thing called the reason we do it is because of mazik meaning we do have a little bit ofash for mazik we don't mik to take advantage it's also if I'm not saying like that right there's also that also says that you have to be careful for that's why we say everyone look in a safer when it says there's two big letters in Israel the shin is big and the is bigot scary seems to protect it right so the best protector from one of these things is to be be able to say and that's why we do it except on leak of course where it's a leim over there we're very miker in Israel leim doesn't mean no one's going to break in your house necessarily it could also mean that I don't think in our day and age it means that so much especially if you live in certain areas of the world but usually it means it protects you from the and since the reason why he's saying to protect you from mik for hurting you the reason why a person can die at night time is because of the get to you He's the same person. So therefore, a person says in order to protect you everyone knows that everyone knows that's always connected. It's to the says a person's from him and that's why and then eventually special times and also the or brings nothing better than learning Torah. Learning Torah is always the best protector. We always know the midra says if you keep your including I protect you if you keep your boys in yeshiva and don't put them in the army then the mid tells us we're going to be okay we'll be safe if you try to empty out the yeshivas I don't want to think about it I'm I'm shipping I'm leaving I'll take the first flight out of here because we're in big trouble that's what protects us and we know the we know melik The Malik was dying to get him. I use that expression on purpose. He was dying to get a hold of me. And did he get him? Yes. When one second he stopped and all of a sudden he was able to get a hold. So you see that we have ways of protecting ourselves. Shadim are real. Shim are scary. Shim exist. But you have to be you can put up your ways of uh of protecting yourself if you're doing it in in uh in many types of of ways. Many of the sakot we have many of the dangers we have involve shadim also such as we know the need and you shouldn't leave a peeled onion or a peeled garlic an egg is questionable you shouldn't leave those over all night it's brought ina to tell us you shouldn't leave those cannot come because the shadium zap on to it I teach it in the girls school and they're always like what happens when you peel they're trying to figure out what hygienically happens when you're doing I'm talking about shady oh shadium okay they don't ask any questions right you understand that's that's um when It's a that's what is this we do for that in the morning we're a little bit more lenient than they used to be because like I said we're better off a little bit with the you have to do the dime as soon as possible though because they get the heebie-jebies go on top of your hands you understand the beta there's places all over the place not to do speaking to the shadium I'll end with a story we'll end with a story from the safer kayasher because I see it's arvit and basically said is there was a person who bought a house in a certain area and guess what? There was a poltergeist in the house. It was a haunted house. Door literally I'm saying straight from the kavasher. There were doors that were opening and closing, windows that were opening and closing. There was noises all over the place. And you know back then these guys had a back. I I know I would not even look at the house. I didn't, you know, get rid of the deed and goodbye. But they said this is really bummer. I bought a house. I want to live here. This is how do I live here? So they went to the rov of the town Ravoyel Balashem. They went to Rav Balashem and they said, "Sir, Rabbi, can you go ahead and take care of this haunted house? I'm so happy I didn't live during that time period as a rabbi." Right? They said, "Can you go ahead and take care?" So Raul Balash went in there and he went down in the basement and he trapped the shade. He got him. HE SAID, "GET OUT. You're not allowed to stay in here." He says, "You, Rabbi, no, you get out." He says, "He's not allowed." He says, "Why not?" He says, "We own this house. We got it. Birushia. We inherited the house. How'd you get a buusha? He says there was a turf and I'm just bringing out what I sp in the beginning this year. There was a black surf is a a guy who does um medals who plays with metals that had relations and had a relationship with a shida and he was able to have kids from the sha. That's the of the story. He actually had other shadim that were produced from this female shade. And these children ended up he ended up dying in the war and we ended up being in the basement but this is our house. We were yours the house. We own this house. This is the the children here are us. We own this house. So the guy said to him two things. First of all he says shadim are not allowed to be in a bar place. There's people here. There are people around you can't be. That's a and b. The second thing he told him is that there's no such thing as yusha by a shade. There's no such thing as an inheritance by a shade. You're not a person to be able to do that. They said no no we want to. HE SAID THAT'S MY THIS IS THE YOU HAVE TO GET OUT AND THEY LEFT. Some people listen to the he said we had no choice when the say so we have to do
