Clean out the vulgar language

HH
It used to be in former good times, society did not accept the open use of foul language, and children would be disciplined by having their mouth washed out with soap. Our Sages o.b.m. warned of the terrible tragedy improper speech brings to the world, including the deaths of the youth may the Merciful One save us.
Today unfortunately even people who should be role models, the upper echelons of society like congressman and what used to be respectable sources of news and media, use vulgar language openly and virulently.
Recently in particular the entire media was rampant with vulgar language. And perhaps that is why they are now sharing the terrible news of the latest fad amongst children to swallow detergent, almost as if they are trying to atonement for the atrocities of foul language.

The paragon of pure refined language to rectify everything is Na Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman!

Slaves of Time

HH

Movies drag a person down into the confines of time. This is something that becomes apparent especially when reading the awesome exposition of Rabbi Nussun in Likutay Halachos (Yoreh Daya 2), Laws of Circumcision (4), where he elaborates on the principles Rabbainu revealed about time, mainly that in reality there is no time, just according to the deficiency of daas, as can be seen with dreams when one isn't cognizant a few minutes can seem like eternity with elaborate plots of tens of years transpiring, so time imposes itself proportionately, so that the more daas one has the less he is restrained by time, and his time includes in it vast inordinate amounts of time of those with lesser daas, and a true tzadik has daas which transcends time altogether. This Rabbainu revealed in his Stories of Ancient Times, the story of the Seven Beggars, the Blind Beggar of the first day, is connected to the sense of sight. Thus the Blind Beggar who merited to transcend time was completely blind of the physicality of this world, which didn't amount in his eyes to even an eyeblink. According to the kabala, sight is a feminine sense, and the person who is seeing is on the receiving end. Rabbi Nussun explains a theme found already in Kabala and chasidus that time is a feminine aspect, time specific, the 28 different time enumerated in Koheles, all of these designations are the female aspects which is the vessel for those specific times, each one in its own right. These times constrain a person in their confines, for in reality there is no time, there is just this aspect that the female is the vessel for those times, to be filled and raised to eternity. Thus Rabbi Nussun asserts it is the duty of the male to raise the female to transcend time. This of course is accomplished through keeping the Torah and Mitzvoas which are the vehicles of transposing this world to the infinite. The letters of the Torah and each mitzva are also the aspect of female vessels, and they bring those that induce them to transcend time and the finite properties of this world. Thus when one put his eyes to see the physical world as it is without looking for the Torah inside, especially television, sports, and movies which are intent on captivating a person to concentrate on the physicality of the screenplay, the observer is dragged and incarcerated more in more into the trappings of time and becomes more and more subservient to the confines of time, like inducing a dream, he puts his consciousness deeper and deeper into deficiency of daas and will suffer the increasing dominance of time.

Trump, Jerusalem, Rabbainu Nachman

HH

It is interesting to note how the media is so fascinated by the beverages consumed by President Donald Trump (yesterday CNN aired how he drinks 12 diet cokes daily - making this more newsworthy than the arab suicide bomber who blew himself up in the New York subway).

In the Book of Nehemiah we find that Nehemiah was the "saar hamashkeh (cupbearer?)" to the king of Persia. Nehemiah, while attending to the King's beverages, gained the King's permission, backing and support, and confidence to rebuild Jerusalem. Nehemiah then proceeded to do just that. Nehemiah is a name very similar to Nachman, and we find (Nehemiah 2:15) that he was empowered by the esoteric aspect of "Nachal (stream)" which is the aspect of Rabbi Nachman. Rabbi Nachman  is also the master of the unique inimitable unparalleled "Hungarian Wine" (as Hungary is grappling whether or not to fully recognize Jerusalem).
(According to the latest conspiracy theories, Catcher in the Rye- the rye is not referring to grass but to whisky!!!)

Recently as the movement to bring the holy tomb of Rabbi Nachman to Jerusalem gained momentum, and received wide coverage in the media, shortly thereafter President Trump went through with full recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. This is a harbinger B"H to the actual bringing of the holy tomb to Jerusalem, which will initiate a true rebuilding of Jerusalem so desperately needed like in the time of Nehemiah!

Transmission of Messiah

HH

Technology has provided the means to share images and movies, sights and sounds, there are even inroads to share senses of touch, but I have yet to hear of any breakthrough of sharing smell. The terrible repugnant stench of the media doesn't have reprieve. It occurs to me that only Messiah has this power and ability, and he will transmit the most fragrant aromas as is hinted in Song of Songs and revealed by Rabbainu Na Nach Nachma Nachman Meuman!
Perhaps this is part of he secret of the seventh holy beggar - without feet, because in Song of Songs there is a correlation between the footsteps of Messiah jumping of he mountains in the song that is NNNNM and the wonderful heavenly aroma of those mountains.
NNNNM!

Hypocrisy outside from inside

HH
Many are astounded at the sheer ludicrous conduct of the haters of Israel. Like the U.N. deciding that the Western Wall isn't Jewish, their support of an education which is full of hatred and incitement, and putting Suadia Arabia at the head of women's rights!?.

And similarly so many other things, like the leftists strong advocacy for Islam, when according to Islam they would be slaughtered.

How do such crazy policies have any standing whatsoever?!

The answer is that it is empowered by everyone on their own personal paradigm. When people do not live the truth they invite the world to run in a similar hypocritical fashion.

Among many ultra right they sing the final words of Samson - I will avenge my eyes from the Pilishtim/palistinians - with so much fervor and excitement, even as they are falling in the very mistake which was the downfall of Samson - he went after his eyes (as revealed in the Talmud). This highlights the point of this post. The entire fantasy and flimsy imagination of the tv, movies, media is this power which is bringing down Israel, and to combat it Israel needs to get out of its bondage, and strengthen in truth and reality, real reality of Torah. But as long as people are still slaves to the aforementioned fantasies, they empower the world to follow suit on the global level. Even as the people are astounded and amazed at falsehood and hypocrisy, it is being fueled internally by they themselves.

More on the evils of the media - even kosher family rated

HH
Previously on the blog I explained how even kosher educational media entraps a person in the matrix and facade of this world. There is an even more harmful element, the sight of evil. Today no one thinks twice about seeing all the criminals paraded in the news, and all the villains in the movies - who are very craftily made-up to resemble the evil people they are impersonating. However, the Talmud already severely warns against gazing upon the countenance of a wicked person, and this is very readily understood. The Zohar reveals the methods of physiognomy, and even those who have no conception of this science are often intuitive to it, and undoubtedly effected subconsciously, and a person's soul definitely is very in tune, aware, and perceptive of this. A person's eyes are like QR and barcode scanners, and when they see and register a face it causes a strong reaction. Studies have even shown how people tend to subconsciously imitate what they see, and thus older couples begin to resemble each other. Hence it is readily understood the strong negative, injurious, damaging, and harmful impact of the images of the media, even family rated.

The innate prohibitive problem with movies and tv

HH
Much has been said to explain why movies and tv are so detrimental, but even they don't address the main core of the issue, and therefore when it comes to really kosher educational media there are allowances and approval. The truth however is that the very nature of movies is harmful and the quintessential opposite of Torah values.
The Talmud extols Rav, one of the sages, praising him for never ever glancing out of his four cubits, and this virtue is an instruction enumerated and highly encouraged in the classic work Raishis Chuchma and other ethical works. In these holy texts we find a term "chaizoo (the sight) dihigh (of this) almu (world)," the Ramchal in Adir Bamurom goes so far as to say the senses we have are actually inhibitions which block the true senses of our soul! And in one of the greatest revelations of Rabbainu Na Nach Nachma Nachman Me'Uman, the Story of Ancient Times of the Seven Beggars, Rabbainu revealed how the saints completely transcended the sensory faculties of this world. Now even though these are obviously tremendously high levels which at best we can pray for from our very remote vantage point, nevertheless they are the true reality of this world, and even if we do not see ourselves achieving their recognition it is definitely forbidden to give power and strength to the false reality. So as much as we are trapped and enslaved by the facade of this world, and we must contend with it, there is really no excuse to bring upon ourselves extraneous succor to the allusion. Such is the nature of every movie, even a very kosher and educational one, it entraps a person in the facade of the world. For the lessons we learn even with our physical senses are seeking the truth which is really imbued and transpiring, whereas a movie is really intent on the visual scenario which is the antithesis of the reality. So even when there is a good message the loss might far out way the gain.

The direction of the nauseating media

HH

In the first Torah-lesson ‫of Likutay Moharan, Rabbainu reveals how the evil inclination first presents itself as a mitzvah, ‫ and even when not presenting itself as an actual mitzvah, very often the lines are blurred and it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad, and certainly there is plenty of room for a ‫person to justify doing many things he should not. But as the bad develops and begins to show its true colors decision making becomes much easier, just that the temptation is already set in and much harder to break. However as the bad develops still further it becomes really ugly and loses all appeal and allure, and unless a person is already completely addicted Heaven forbid, it will be abhorrent and he will be nauseated by it.

Such is what we are seeing in the media today, and with the movies and television.  Originally there was some appeal to it all, and there was definitely room for a person to allow himself some entertainment by it. Today already it is becoming increasingly nauseating, as the producers introduce more and more of their vile vices and views, and it's just disgusting and sickening to watch. What will probably happen is a very strong bipolar radicalization where there will be an increasing development of extremely kosher shows verses the tasteless faithless repugnant ones.

Its better not to hear or see them at all

HH

Recently I saw in the media a quote from michelle obama something to the extent that a real man doesn't need to put down women, something extremely brilliant and enlightening like that, a real windfall for the liberal media. And it really opened my mind to a deeper understanding of how irrelevant and even detrimental all the great thinkers of the secular world are, for they choose to point out and highlight the whims of their fantasies, and thus even when they might actually be onto something who can even risk relying on them at all.

See also Character - The Aleph Bet Book of the Traits https://www.createspace.com/6062519 entry of Faith, item #5: Someone who enjoys the words of a heretic, even if the words are not heretical, through this, he comes to thoughts of idol worship.

Thank G-d for the Torah and the Holy Tzadikim may we merit to never look outside of their four cubits of halacha.

Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

The world is still not familiar with the name of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov – NNNNM

At about 2 am on the 21^st of Kislev 5777 (12/21/2016) some Ukrainian thugs entered the holy compound of the holy tomb of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, better known as Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman and deposited the grinning head of pig and smeared the place with fake blood and some tear gas and then ran off. The Breslovers had a heyday, everyone was pumping and buzzing, reviewing what had transpired, speaking with local authorities, and sending out pictures and videos to friends and the media, and in no time the story got international attention making headlines all over the world, and multiple members of the knesset were calling their counterparts in the Ukraine. Anyone familiar with Rabbainu knows that he has the power to easily light up interest in whoever he wants, and if he simply wanted to gain some major PR he has many more respectable ways of doing so – in the past he got world renown people to publicize for him – like Martin Buber, and even more recently Bibi Netanyahu announced to the whole world a teaching in the name of Rabbainu which made one of the presidents of the U.S. a student. Even still it is kind of typical for Rabbainu to pick an underdog approach, always desiring to be the victim and not the persecutor. However in this case there are some very obvious allusions to the current events – mainly the weekly Torah portion of Va-yaishev – in which the brothers of Yosef slaughter a “se'eer eezim <a goat – se'eer can also mean a demon, and eezim – is brazeness, typical of the swine>” to drench the unique cloak <kisoaness passim> of Yosef in its blood to fool their father Yaakov into believing that Yosef was mauled. Rashi sites our Sages as revealing that this in turn was punishment for Yaakov having fooled his father Isaac by putting the skins of a goat on his arms, in order to steal the blessings from Esau. So it would seem that Rabbainu was accepting upon himself a rectification for all this smear campaign, not only to bring rectification for the tremendous sin of the selling of Yosef – which according to the Kabbala is a primary root of the entire exile and all the suffering thereof – but also in securing the blessings unhindered from Esau who is likened to a pig.
In addition the paroaches (the ornate -velvet – sheet) which is draped over the tomb and was drenched in the red paint or whatnot, was improperly placed there – previously there had been a beautiful paroaches there which was specially made with Rabbi Nachman's name displayed prominently in embroidered letters: Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman. .Haters had removed and stolen this befitting paroaches and the current was put there as a replacement, and behold the blood of the Na Nach paroaches has been avenged!

Another extremely beneficial result was the reawakening of the urgent importance of bringing the holy tomb of Rabbainu to Jerusalem, where there is already a special plot allotted for him on Mt. Zion. Rabbainu expressed himself very clearly on multiple occasions that his place is only Israel, and before he passed away he said explicitly (Life of Our Leader Rabbi Nachman, article 162) that he would really have desired to pass away in Israel, but it was not realistic. So B"H there is now greater awareness and more prayers going up that we should merit to see this happen sooner than later. Because eventually it will obviously happen, there is nothing to stop it, and ultimately Rabbainu will not be the last to arise for the resurrection, but the first...



What I did learn from this event is that the world is still not properly familiar with the name of Rabbi Nachman. Rabbi Nachman's name, particularly Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman should be extremely familiar, a household name, and yet in the international headlines there is no mention of his name, as if people wouldn't recognize it. In the circles I frequent everyone knows of Rabbainu, so it was an eyeopener to learn that in the great big world out there, people are still living in the stone ages, bereft of any knowledge of Rabbainu! So B”H we got to merit to see that change very soon. In merit of the holy Petek.

Veli & Amos

 this is what I wrote them:

HH

Not sure what you already have, and you can easily have found plenty of material on the web, but I'll point out a video I put up of a friend rappelling to put up Nanach on a building:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MSDW8aUSKg

and here is a Nanach written by little girls...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dse2dYHfB2o

In a Hebrew book I wrote called "Likutay Nanach" -- A Collection of Nanach, there is a chapter dedicated to the halacha - Jewish law regarding graffiti. According to Jewish Law everyone is obligated to be faithful law-abiding citizens, this would really curtail a lot of art. However there are many loopholes, e.g. my friend Rabbi David Cooper, a conservative Rabbi in Toronto informed me that Canadian law guarantees the write for public signs, he has successfully fought this in court. Also according to many orthodox and chasidic Jews, since it is forbidden by the Torah for Jews to have autonomy before the redemption, Israel does not have this status. Also in the Israeli elections taking place this week, G-d willing the Nanach have thieri very own political party with a complete political agenda, and with G-d's help we're going to be seeing many inroads and developments in the spread of Nanach on a government level.

There are also other questions, e.g. if your friend is sleeping and he/she is going to miss something very important, do you wake him up? Jewish law says it is forbidden to wake someone up, obviously however if a person is certain the person would want to be woken, the law would permit it, so where do you "draw" the line? If you would string diamonds on someone's front door they would probably appreciate it, and not sue you for the nails that were driven in, so who -- deep deep inside -- doesn't desire to have the awesome privilege and benefits of having Nanach on their wall? This is just a little taste of some of the considerations. Obviously the rapidly expanding Nanach cult includes souls that are escaping from the lowest dredges of society and addictions and what not, people who are literally fighting for their lives and sanity, and often these people don't really pause to appraise societies statutes and boundaries, they are driven by powers that society has unleashed upon them and they are just returning the favor, balancing the powers of evil with the powers of rectification.

In my book I also discuss some of the first occurrences of graffiti, many are familiar with the writing of the wall with Balshetzar, but not so many are familiar with the biblical story of how King David saved his life from the King of Gat by putting up graffiti in this enemey's territory. Here we see that the importance of the act even more than the message of the graffiti, howeve with Nanach obviously the main thing is the message: Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

Another amazing point to the Nanach graffiti is that it is a fulfillment of what King Solomon revealed in Proverbs that "the stone screams out from the wall", the Sages revealed much about just what the stones are screaming, the Nanach are certain that all of creation is screaming Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman, so by tagging Na Nach on the walls the Nanach are simply giving a mouthpiece and platform for creations cry to go out into the world.

G-d tags Nanach all over the galaxy, in star formations, and in the clouds.

One of my friends Y.B. told me that he had visited Israel as a kid, he was shown the sites and had been completely uninterested the only thing that caught his fancy and piqued his interest was a Nanach tagged on a bus stop. Today Y.B. is a full time Nanach, spreading the word: Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!

This is all I can do for you guys on such short notice. Wishing you success in spreading the ultimate message of Na Nach Nachma Nachman MeUman!!!!

 

Great blessings of Na Nach Nachmu Nachman Meuman!

                      always,
