someone close to me was urged to go to a mekubal who in truth was more of a talmid of a mekubal, who told her not to go forth with a certain situation in her life.
she was devestated to hear that and later this mekubal called back that he “recalculated” and its okay and everything will be good and great…
now those hours/days in between the two conversation was very hard for her, she was depressed about the original answer she got and when she received the update about how everything will be okay and that she should go forth with a certain decision, she still
couldn’t get over the original “advice” she received…
point…kabala is not a determing factor in making life decisions and Rabbi Yisroel Belsky said its mamehs against “tamim te’hye im Hashem Elokecha”!!
its like going to fortune teller and making life decisions based on what you hear from pp who may be familiar with kabbla,may have even learnt it for a long time, but in no way are at status to render life decisions and provide advice that people to literally to heart…
at times this “advice” might not even be accurate at all and very misleading..at times devestating!
