"How do we serve Hashem?: With the body and with the soul"

-Rab. Abud Zonana

[psychologeek]

Thank you so much for your reply 🌸🩵 It's very nice to get a return from the author of your favorite fanfiction.

As for the requests, I'm sorry, I sent the question right after I finished reading the epilogue and was so excited that you were open to interactions that I didn't even read the pinned post.

"day 1: search party/panic attack"+ "Some of Them" . Maybe something about Gordon in the Bad!Verse — I really like it, I think this is my request for you. Something like the Commissioner is so seriously injured and the good Batman takes him away from himself to help. Gordon wakes up in the Wayne Manor of the good universe and there is a lot of misunderstanding.

1 — the way I see it, before become a donor Alt!Tim underwent an intensive course of recovery and general health promotion.And oh, I'm really sorry if it made you feel like you weren't comfortable.

2 — Yes shortie sounds good. And what if Alt Tim is a trance, and the other!Tim is not? Alt Damian will really experience so many difficult feelings.

Thank you for contacting me

I love talking about my fics haha :)

Many things I leave out.

Oops I forgot day 1+2 were taken, hold a sec, I'll edit it so you'll know what's open 😬

(I do have a start about Gordon after good!bat leave. Ambiguous ending.)

1- cancer isn't really my jam. Though I don't mind writing hospital/medical issues.

2 - You just made me go down a MASSIVE rabbit hole 😭😭. Will a Timkon bb be jewish? And general שו"ת about cloning. It's actually fascinating, and relay on Hilchatic discussions from the Talmud era (2nd-3rd century). Also read about "Are mermaids human or fish and can you eat them?" (Apparently Hilchaticly speaking, they are considered non-kosher fish).

I.... got sidetracked, as you can see.

But yeah, feel free to add more about Timkon bb!! (A baby girl)

At the Shiva for Eliyahu HY"D

Tonight I visited the shiva for 19-year-old Eliyahu Avraham Bernstein HY"D, one of the 1300 Israelis sadistically massacred by Hamas terrorists this Simchat Torah.

I ended up at the Bayit-Vegan home of this family I'd never met because my soldier-daughter was concerned that this Charedi family whose son had chosen a different path would need extra chizuk. Who would comfort these poor parents? So she sent me...

My daughter needn't have been concerned that there would be a lack of visitors, the shiva was full of comforters, including the Sephardi Chief Rabbi.

And my daughter was also mistaken regarding who would give chizuk to whom at this shiva. Instead of comforting Hadassah, the remarkable mother who'd just lost her beloved son, the oldest of her 10 children, she comforted us. Hadassah's emuna glow, beauty-of-holiness reminded me of Devora Paley, the mother of Yaakov and Asher HY"D, who comforted and united an entire nation following her family's unfathomable tragedy.

About 10 minutes after I arrived, out of the crowd of comforters Hadassah looked straight at me and asked, "And who are you? Where did you come from?"

So I sat down next to her, and she told me about her Eliyahu:

"As a child in the Belzer cheider, Eliyahu's rebbe said he was an ilui. He loved learning Torah.

"I had a special connection with Eliyahu. He was my oldest child, how could I not? When he was missing, we were already davening, and when I told Eliyahu's younger siblings that their beloved oldest brother had died sanctifying Hashem's name, they were inconsolable.

"And since he's like this [she points to the photo of Eliyahu with long hair] I was even more connected with him. I wasn't connected to him despite the fact that he's like this, but because he's like this. This is the way he could get to his true self. And the more he was his true self, the more he could express his greatness. It's important to learn Torah, to do teshuva, but with Eliyahu, I feel like he was was already incredible, just incredible. And even when I would pray for him [that he would return to religion] I thought, "But he's already a wonder, with so many talents, but even more than being talented he had his huge smile with those big dimples. And he was so connected to the home, so connected to the family. And that's not something to take for granted, at all."

May Hashem bless this beautiful, broken family with comfort among the countless mourners of Zion and Jerusalem. Amen.

Vayishlach - 09.12.2022

Bs"D

Yaakov's Anxiety

"Yaakov was greatly frightened; in his anxiety, he divided the people with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two camps" (Bereshis 32:8).

Why would one of the forefathers of Klal Yisroel show anxiety? The biblical forefathers are supposed to be beacons of emuna and bitachon. Chizkuni answers our question, referencing Midrash (Chizkuni on Bereshis 32:8:1)

"...you may well ask that after Yaakov had been met by angels, as we read at the end of the last portion, and these angels were clearly meant to protect him, what did he have to worry about? This obvious question is answered by our sages by explaining that one of these angels was Michael, Yaakov’s protective angel, whereas the second one was Samael, Esau’s angel. Knowing this, Yaakov had no way of knowing which of these two angels was more powerful. This is why he became very fearful." The source of the names of the angels appears to be Bereshis Rabba 78.

Who are Michael and Samael? Michael, Yaakov's angel, is the personification of Chesed. He is named for the first time in Sefer Daniel. Samael, Eisav's angel, is mentioned frequently in Midrash and kabbalistic texts, known for a multitude of reasons - all negative. Samael is known as the Yetzer HaRa, the prosecuting angel for Yaakov and all Israel. In fact, in Sefer HaBahir (Chp. 200) it is revealed that Samael came down in the form of the serpent in order to trick Adam HaRishon. The punishment for this action was to become the guardian of Eisav, an evil man.

Yaakov's fear was not of Eisav himself, but of his guardian, Samael - who was also Yaakov's accuser. Sefer HaChinuch 3:2 references that Samael's intention was to wipe out Yaakov - him, and his descendants - but due to Yaakov's great righteousness, he could not. Instead, Yaakov is injured in the hip - the 'Gid HaNashe'

To note - we do not pronounce the name of Samael, instead calling it "Samech Mem", a custom recorded by R' Chaim Vital and the AriZal's Taamei Hamitzvot (end of Parshat Vayechi)

To read more about this, see the link below:

The Sole Negative Commandment in the Parsha

When Yaakov fights the Malach, he is injured - the 'gid hanashe' is damaged. This translates to the sciatic nerve, hence the halachic prohibition on consuming the sciatic nerve itself (Bereshis 32:33). In Ashkenazi communities today even the rear of the animal is not eaten, as we do not have a mesorah on the removal of the nerve itself. This is codified into halacha in Sefer HaChinuch 3:1;

"Not to eat the sciatic nerve: [Parshat] Vayishlach has one negative commandment, and it is the prohibition of [eating] the sciatic nerve; as it is stated (Genesis 32:33), "Therefore the Children of Israel shall not eat the sciatic nerve." And this [phrase] "they shall not eat" is not to be taken as part of the story, to mean that because this event occurred to [our] forefather, [we, his] descendants refrain from eating that nerve. Rather, it is a warning (prohibition) of God that they shall not eat it."

"Take care of your soul as you take care of your body"

-Rab. Yonatan Galed

[onmymasa22]

When ur teacher says after seeing the culmination of ur art the past 3 years that ur life is humor mixed with tragedy... lol, nice to meetcha, take a seat.

Top hobbies:

1) When a guy is being annoying, saying to a third party person "dont worry about him, he just got his period"

2) when guys hit on my friends, but they're not interested, so i get to be the super blunt Sagittarius that i am with a delightful "yo, dude, she doesnt like you".

3) and back to number 1

Emuna is my alignment with the constant awareness that hashems plan will carry out. Its a very weird thing, but i feel peace with the idea that although i might not be alive, the jewish nation will be alive.

This is the year that you cut out everything that doesn't serve you. Every complicated relationship, bad habits, wasted time on whatever is below you. This is the year that you only carry with you people who are good to be around, positivity, love, humor. When it says- לֶךְ־לְךָ֛, the לְךָ֛ for you refers to anything thats good

I have slept probably a good five hours total in the past three days, and yet my day today looked like- waking up in greece, flying to israel, bringing all my crap to jerusalem, buying pillows, meeting up with friends for dinner, buying shower stuff, putting all my bedding on my bed, and packing for tomorrow which requires me to be out and about at 6am for a weekend in the desert with like 50 friends. At the same time im impressed with myself but also wondering what trauma led me to deal fairly well under really not normal circumstances... like no real sleep or food for 3 days.

Yah, being an adult is crazy sometimes.

i brought my crap to Jerusalem, bought pillows, went to

El al. Put in stuff, buy foid

הי, אני חזרתי לארץ ומעוד רוצה להמשיך באנוש. שרי אמרה שיהיה כמה מתנדבות חדשות אז אני חושבת לבוא בסוף סדנת בישול כדי להגיד שלום ולא להפריע. עם יש מקום בסדנה עצמה, אשמח להתנדב שם קבוע אבל אני מבינה אם אין מקום ויהיה צפוף מדי. יש עוד מקומות באנוש שצריך אותי?

This is really hypocritical cuz im not really a sunscreen wearer... i like sitting in the sun in the summer. I like seeing freckles on my nose and lines on my feet. But for me, the difference is that i dont do tanning salons. I like natural, from the sun. But if you get gel nails done, the curing process was found to be corelated with getting cancer so anyone that gets it done, sunscreen or gloves. It's like going to a tanning bed all the time.

Its really hard right now to not let politics affect relationships. So honestly, i thank gd right now that the people closest to me arent into politics. And im with them. So hears to the people who have better things to talk about then politics

Sometimes i just want quiet, i want streets where no one knows me. I want real grass, i want to just breathe, i want to relax my mind. I want to be outside and inside at the same time. I want to be comfortable with myself and my surroundings. I want to be with people, and also alone. I feel sick and fine at the same time. Stop judging myself. Let gd judge you. I need to just love myself.

Because life is just overwhelming. And i run because i need to. And everything is just as it should be. I just need to trust hashem. And read thursdays tehillim. Thats it.

אז בזוהר כתוב שהמרגלים אהבו את בועה הרוחנית שלהם במדבר- שלא הצטרכו לעבוד, עסקו כל הזמן ברוחניות. הבעיה של צלפחד לפי רב שמעון בר יוחאי היה שהוא עשה השוואות בין עצים. יש את העץ הדעת והעץ החיים. והמרגלים רצו לחיות ב"עולם" של העץ החיים- רוחני, חיים במדבר, בלי הקושי של להקים מדינה או להילחם. צלפחד האמין בקצה השני- שהדבר הכי חשוב זה לעבוד בעולם, ולהבין בין טוב ורע (ה"עולם" של העץ הדעת). העניין הוא שצריך את שניהם כדי לחיות, ואחד לא יותר חשוב מהשני. מבחינת שהפילו עליו אבנים- כתוב בזוהר שההשקפה הזאת של לעבוד כל הזמן ולהיות מכורים לעבודה גורם ללב להיות קשה/ קשוח מדי כמו אבן. וגם אבן= א (השם, והעולם הרוחני) בן= אותו גמטריה של המילה בהמה (העולם הגשמי). יעני להפיל עליו את הרעיון הזה שהחיים שלנו צריך לכלול את שתי העולמות, שיש לנו תפקיד בעולם, אבל גם יש לנו את שבת.

So the zohar says that the spies basically loved the spiritual bubble of the desert. They didnt need to lift a finger, and they could spend all there time in spirtuality. The guy who didnt keep shabbos, was actually tzlafchad (whos daughters loved israel so much they begged moshe for land there) and his issue according to rav shimon bar yochai was that he compaired trees. Basically theres the tree of knowledge- (we recognize this from adam and chava and its all about the struggle between right and wrong), and the tree of life (all spirtual). So the spies wanted to exist only in the realm of the tree of life- desert life, spiritual, no struggles of starting up a country. And we see that was wrong. So tzlafchad believed in the other extreme- the tree of knowledge, that the most important thing is working in the world and figuring it out. The thing is- u need both. U need shabbos. One isnt more important, they are both needed to sustain our lives. So when we say he was stoned, the zohar says, that negating the rest of shabbos, ie: workaholicism/productivity addiction makes a persons heart hard or tough like a stone, too tough. So אבן- stone is really like א- hashem or spirtuality, and the gematria of ben= 52 like behaima (animal)- as if to say- pelt him with the idea that the physical animalistic world needs to go together with the spiritual world, where we both have our purpose, but also the break from it that we need to not get burn out. If u want the whole speech- its "the sin of compairing trees" on youtube
