Rabbeinu Bachye (Kad HaKemach Kedusha):
Hashem is revered in the great council of the holy ones and feared by all around Him. (Tehilim 89:8).
…
Shkoyach. Is rabbeinu bachyah paskening like Abaye in nedarim 10a, against rebbi elazar hakafar who holds that the nazir is a choteh, because “shetzier atzmo min hayayin?” as the rambam writes in deios ch. 3, a person actually can’t assur extra things on himself that Torah didnt assur: ???? ????? ??? ???? ??? ???? ??? ?????? ????? ????? ????. There’s also that Yerushalmi that a person is going to give din vecheshbon al kol mah sheraasah eino velo achal.
Is this a long-running contradiction that goes through the amoraim and rishonim, or is there a way to resolve it?
I don’t believe he is giving a psak Halacha.
He is merely doing a great Chesed, because he loves every Yid, by informing them how to be a proper Yid, an eved shlayma. How to give nachos to The Ribono Shel Olam should you desire to, to at least try to pay back for the infinite kindness He has bestowed upon you. How to merit a beautiful cheilek in Olam Ha Boh.
What happened to the OP?

Maybe the original poster can repost an edited version?
yes. a person cannot live a life of fantasy & be with Hashem on a high level. he needs to give up something for Hashem & show how much he values being with Hashem & give some physical pleasures up.
ex. if you remove yourself from internet & running after your favorite sports team. you will definitely be on a much higher level & be much closer to Hashem-not because of removing these tumahs but for your act of showing Hashem how much you Value & treasure being with Hashem.
start your journey of bringing yourself closer to Hashem step by step, removing one thing at a time from your physical desires & pleasures etc… it wont take long until you see the priceless difference & benefit it makes in you.
Someone reads the Daas Torah blog. You should at the very least attribute your ideas to Rabbi Eidensohn.
Ideas? Direct copy/paste. Or maybe he really is R Eidonsohn.
If so, may I suggest that he puts out a new Yad Moshe with all nine chalakim included?
if it isn’t your translation, then why not make that clear in your post? in any case, you will be meivi geulah l’olam…
Same goes for posting. One day perhaps Joseph will also reach this madreiga.
Joseph, will you admit to all the posts that you took from frumteens?
It’s always quite acceptable here to question,criticize,point out his past behavior ,and even embarrass Joseph.
Kind of an understood unwritten rule of the CR. even new posters get the hang of this pretty quickly.
I suppose you can say he brought it on himself, he is to blame for this, he keeps repeating the same behaviors. And you’d indeed have a good point.
But I’d ask two questions:
Does unattributed quoting, copy-pasting, even multiple screen names have much to do with the points he’s trying to make?
And is it the middah of a proper Yid to publicly point out someone’s flaws? Especially to do so in the comfort of social acceptability and mutual support?
(I say “especially” because it is akin to the lowly degrading “lynching” mentality)
I’m talking generally, not necessarily about this thread. I haven’t really read it much.
maybe you are confusing the issues. You are assuming it was the no link policy, perhaps it was about the site being referenced. mentioning certain sites can be somewhat of a michshol you know. If someone reposted something from an anti frum or anti torah website, i would certainly hope they wouldn’t mention it. it’s like with the secular books, why put ideas in heads of people who are trying to keep them clear of that stuff.
im still trying to figure out what you hope to accomplish by replanting someone elses thread here. why not just go there and read it.
Rabbi Aldestein on frumteens:
“I find Frumteens hashkafic pronouncements odious and repugnant. When I interviewed the mysterious Moderator, I told him that I would have to point out in print that our readers myself included reject his views. I made good on that promise.
The mistake which people made (for which I have to take some responsibility) is seeing the article as some sort of endorsement of the Frumteens site, or of Mr. Frumteens. I thought I had made it abundantly clear that the site was valuable in giving parents a glimpse into the world of troubled teens. I continue to believe that many parents are in denial about what is happening in our community, and that hearing first person accounts might give some of them a jump-start into getting more involved. I have no reason to doubt that Frumteens provides a rare window into a little-understood world.
The review did not recommend Frumteens as a place that kids should go. (It really couldnt. The readership of Jewish Action is overwhelmingly Modern Orthodox; Frumteens is geared almost exclusively to the right.) It did explain how the site attempts to help kids, and by the accounts that several of the people in the Jewish Action heard, Frumteens does do much good. I dont see why that should be taken away from it, even if other parts of the same site spew the most contemptible venom.”
Not to get into a debate, but when you are motzi shem ra on entire community of frum, Torah observent Jews, you have “crossed the line”.
Whatever good frumteens might have done, it is far outweighed by its krum and hateful hashkafa. The only time I ever had a thought of going OTD (B’H it was only a thought) was after becoming involved with that website.
