“anyone who completes Sefer Tehilim between the 1st and 2nd Megilla lainings, will be helped within the year.”
The writer said he was helped, as were several others he knows of.
Thank you so much! I will try to remember this year and let’s see if I am married by next year! Well I hope that Moshiach is here by then so everyone will be healed either way!
anyone who completes Sefer Tehilim between the 1st and 2nd Megilla lainings
I guess for those of us who lain again right away at night, we’re out of luck, as I don’t have time to finish Sefer Tehillim in between. 🙂

Thank you bpt
The Yated has a similar letter about a childless woman. She had the segulah to say Tehilim after chatzos. She had a baby exactly a year later
I’ve heard of saying the entire Tehillim on Purim as a Segula (which I’ve done), not necessarily between the two Megilla readings….
BPT
If I am married by next year it will be your fault! 😉
For those who don’t know. R’ Doniel Frisch ztz”l was the mechaber of the Matok Midvash peirush on the Zohar that is mekubel by all of klal yisroel.
I met him in Rav Gamliel Rabinowitz’s (one of the roshei yeshivah of Shaarei Shomayim of Rav Shlomo Zalman) house. He told me Rav Frisch was his rebbe and they were learning together.
He was niftar about 5 years ago or so and he was definitely one of the semi-hiddin tzaddikim of the past few decades.

I thought your wife was a monogamist, so what’s the difference? 🙂

Touche. “Were I single…” should have been appeneed to the front of my statement. 🙂

AZ:
I can’t vouch for the statement since I never heard him say it and I don’t know where the Hamodia got it from. But I think it’s possible that he said. Many Rebbes made havtachos b’geder tzaddik gozer v’elokim mekayem. So he doesn’t need to be a kol yachol or a navi.
But are they allowed to mitzad hadin?
“(and you CAN do it!)”
Better brush up on my Tehillim reading so I make the time restraints 😉
ah gefehrliche misnaged!
AZ:
Your point is understood but I disagree.
ONLY the Kol Yachol has the power to be Maftiach “ANYONE” who does something.
Except that this is exactly what tzaddik gozer means. Yehoshuah even countered Hashem’s gezeirah that the sun should move in its path by stopping nature itself.
Tzaddik Gozer is not capable of guranteing with such a broad stroke
What defines a broad stroke and what is thin?
and no person of the stature of Tzaddik Gozer would be silly enought to make such a statement
This is not a fact but an opinion based on the idea that a tzaddik can’t make such a gezeirah. If they can, you’re wrong.
I think everyone knows that there is NO tzadik whose EVERY bracha came true.
I don’t.
ONLY the Ribbone Shel Olam, S’ehu Kol Yachol is capable of that.
Or ‘only the RBS”O can be the source of a tzaddik’s bracha’.
To think otherwise, is makeing a deity out of a human
See above. Also there is ’emunas chachamim’.
and may possibly border on transgressing one of the 13 ikarim of the Ramabam
Which one?
I think the question is whether or not you think that Hashem grants tzaddikim control over nature. If a tzaddik wanted, one erev Shabbos, to make a three year old cow to eat for Shabbos, could he? That is going against nature- a nes niglah. Why can’t he cause people to find their zivugim which is only a nes nistar?
“all 150 will take me close to 3 hours.”
3 hours?! Oh no then it will take me 6, because you do man-ish type prayer things more regularly than I do…
*minor freak out*
Pardon my causticism, but I am doubtful things in the name of people who I don’t even know who they are after Googling.
Saying gantz tehillim? How can you lose?
Very easily. I stay up late at night to say it and therefore miss davening in the morning. Maybe my time is better spent learning. Or doing other mitzvos.
There are ALWAYS costs, and they must be evaluated accordingly.

There is also an inyan of a Ruby which brings good luck. I gave my niece a Ruby ring before her younger sister’s wedding last May. She has just finished her Sheva Brochos! B”H, it worked for her. Maybe because it was mine (don’t call me I don’t have any more). But at any rate, Rubies are brought down to have special protective properties so they are beautiful and certainly can’t hurt.
Wolfish~ “I stay up late to say it…”
you know there are those (like my DH) who say that you don’t say tehillim at night? I’m just sayin’…..
Aries~
my daughter just recently suffered the loss of an early pregnancy :,( & I asked her if she owns any ruby jewelry, like earring studs for example. (it’s her birthstone anyway).

Oh, I understand. I was just reacting to the sentiment of “saying gantz tehillim, how can you lose?” I was merely illustrating that you can, indeed, lose.
The Wolf
gotcha, Wolf. Good Shabbos & Happy Purim! 🙂
AZ:
I think there is a difference between davening for something and being gozer something. I also think a tzaddik would know if he has the koach to be gozer something.
I will try to find the source, but I have heard that if someone has emunah in a tzaddik’s words then even if the tzaddik was not on a madreigah to be po’el nissim the person will still get it from the zchus of his emunah.
I’d imagine the Besh”t’s every bracha came true. Am I wrong?
I don’t think what I am saying is avodah zarah bcause one of the characteristics of a tzaddik is that he is misbatel to HKB”H, his da’as is da’as Torah. So anything he desires is what Hashem wants.
aries:

I have seen brought down in a number of places such as Rabbeinu Bechaye and Yalkut Me’am Loez that rubies are mesugal for pregancy ie. to get pregnant and to not have a miscarriage. But I haven’t seen anything about luck. Can you bring your source?
always here:
I think that not saying tehillim at night is only when the midas hadin is sholet. So for instance you can say it after chatzos all week long. Maybe on Purim there is no midas Hadin also, so you’d be able to say it all night long as well.
Just wanted to pesonally thank bpt for starting this thread. I had read the letter in the hamodia too and put it somewhere in the back of my head, but when i saw it again here it reminded me about it and I did say it (and got other people to say it too).
I don’t know about you but it definitely brought more meaning to my Purim.
Then Hallejuya…. such a peron would NEVER make a statement along the lines of
Obviously, I’m going to say that such a tzaddik wouldn’t make such a statement unless he thought he could. In which case he would. If he did say it, then he thought he could. If he thought he could and he is a tzaddik, then he could.
“There are ALWAYS costs, and they must be evaluated accordingly.”
Do you think that Hashem isnt capable fo taking care of those “costs” for you? You say tehillim and let Hashem take care of the costs. Saying tehillim is never bad.

That explains why most of your posts are so ridiculous; you’re too busy saying Tehillim to think about what you’re writing.
I had a short stint with infertility, and a kind woman gave me some ruby powder to DRINK with a copy of the mekor- a page from R’ Bechaye where it says that one who drinks it will have a son. My husband said the lady should drink it herself as a z’chus for us, but I told my husband that with a name like tomim tihye, how could I ignore the words of R’ Bechaye? He consented, and I downed it without tasting it.
Indeed, my son was born nine months later, and the woman kvells whenever she sees him.
I WANT RUBY JUICE!
Sac, it’s in the fridge in most supermarkets- might be a couple of words in between…something like “red” and “grapefruit”.
Let me know if it works.
(This is not to discredit my story, which is true. Just that it wasn’t juice, but powder that you mix with water, then it looks like water with dirt in it.)
Sacrilege: I WANT RUBY JUICE!
If you think dating is hard now, just try dating with a kid.
Wow tomim. I knew that there was an inyan to drink it but you are the first person I’ve ever heard to do it. I didn’t even know you can get it. There is a jewlery store in geulah (owned by a Jew of course) that gives away free uncut rubies (although you need to buy the chain to put it on).
^That is what I wrote first
Then I noticed your second post and I realized that maybe my leg got pulled so far I’m going to need to buy a plane ticket to get it back.
Tell me it ain’t so.
Derech: I edited the post. The only falsehood in the story is my name, which at that time was still only my motto.
(Lest anyone remember my mentioning that my oldest is a girl, let it be known that I speak of secondary infertility; thus, the veracity of my story is established.)
bpt- worrying about you. hope all turns out ok. Will be thinking about you. I said the whole tehillim on purim but not in between the two readings. Hope my yeshua will come soon either way. I can just tell you that when my brother is in the hospital (my special brother) the tehillim is also my ONLY true friend, so i can understand you.
A young woman was niftar in toronto a year (or two? – I’m not from toronto but recently heard it from someone who lives there) ago. The entire community davened, learned and did all sorts of mitzvos in her zchus so she should have a refua. She was niftar. A rav gave the people chizuk by telling them all the tefillos and zechusim are not for naught, they are accrued in shamayim and at the appropriate time (tbd by shamayim) they will be “put to use”. You never lose by doing a mitzvah, saying a tefilla or perek tehillim.
bpt-
We hope everything works out OK.
Although we mostly don’t know each others real names, we’ve nonetheless gotten to know you to a large extent via your posts, which people enjoy for their sensible perspectives and humor.
If possible to do so without mentioning specifics please keep us updated.
BPT: Wishing you and all your family KOL TUV with an abundance of HAGEFEN Amen!
I was told to say the whole sefer Tehillim on the night of Purim AFTER CHAZOT (and it does take approximately 3 hours!), with ONLY ONE BAKASHA. I did this a year and half ago, and my son met his beshert B’H in June and they married. BPT, Encourage each of your singles to do this also for themselves. It is a very big segula. They should also join Machsom Lefi, which has lists of people who need shidduchim hagunim and one takes upon themselves not to speak loshen harah for a set period (usually 2 hours, unless one takes upon themselves 12 midnight till 8 a.m.). The list concentrates on one particular name for the week and it is suggested to study 2 halachot of the Shemiras Haloshon of the Chofetz Chaim per day.
Everything one does, with good intentions, and with full emunah and bitachon, could only help.
May we all be zocher to have an abundance of HAGEFEN, with many simachot with simcha, refuot, yeshuot, nechamot for all who need them, shidduchim hagunim for all, zerah shel kaaimah for all, with much needed achdut between all the Yidden, which will bring us the ultimate Geulah ve Yeshuah bimharah ve yamaynu Amen!
By the way, Kapusta, I made your potato Kugel and bagels and they were fantastic! May you and all who need shidduchim hagunim, be zocher to build a bayit neeman le shem ule tiferet le Yisrael be karov amen!
Wishing everyone a Gut and meaningful Shabbos!

Amen! Thank you!
Very happy to hear you enjoyed the bagel recipe but I don’t remember ever posting a potato kugel recipe, are you sure it was mine?
I said as much tehilim as I could between the two readings but I didn’t manage to finish the who thing, does that mean I’m not worthy of the segula??? I really wanted so badly to finish the whole thing! I really need my zivug already!! I daven everyday to hashem to send it to me. It’s something I really need at this stage in my life and I cant carry on without it! Please everyone out there daven for each other!!! Daven for all of klal yisroel, then we will all be redeemed.
tefillah, the best segulah. Speedily and besha’a tova y’all temp. singles.
