I lit a candle for Reb Menachem Mendel Ben r Yosef mriminov and saw a yeshua 2x

I find it hard to believe that Hashem just wants us to light candles as a way to merit a yeshuah from all our tzaros.
Have you davened? Given tzedakah? Performed teshuvah? Why are you attributing the yeshuah to the candles instead of the merits that Chazal tell us to accumulate??

your absolute pathetic at best.
Seriously, if your child/wife (or husband if your a woman) etc come home and say that they did some segula that is renowned from a certain tzadik (this has nothing to do with the machla of segulot and not doing the basics), and saw a great yeshua, would you seriously bash it and tell them that it isn’t worth it, they should go do this and that instead? I hope not, be happy that they believe in emunat chachamim!November 21, 2024 2:09 pm at 2:09 pm #2334637HaimyParticipantI didn’t say it wasn’t worth it. It’s not the first thing a Yid should do & not what he attributes his success to. There are much more important things to do first like Daven to Hashem, give tzedakah, do teshuva, etc. If you feel that this is an sdditional zechus you need then by all means go do it!
When hopefully the yeshuah comes, don’t attribute it to the candles, as though it’s some magical potion that brings yeshuos! If you skipped davening, learning, tzedakah, brochos from live tzadikim etc, the things our Chazal tell us to do when we need a yeshua, then you are treating the candles like an avodah zorah!
R’ Menachem Mendel of Riminov isn’t interested in your candles if you use it to bypass doing what your main focus should be!
By the way, R’ Menachem Mendel Ztzl never mentioned anything about publisizing the yeshuah. In today’s superficial world of segulos, I would suggest to keep it to your personal family rather than post it for all to read.
In addition, there’s no real way to attribute a yeshuah to any one action we may take. Maybe it was your davening, maybe the tzedaka, or maybe everything in combination. Maybe the yeshuah was meant to happen regardless of what you decided to do.
Let’s go Betmimus with Hashem & follow what Chazal tell us to do when we need a Yeshuah. Segulos have a place but aren’t the main Avodah of a Yid.November 21, 2024 2:09 pm at 2:09 pm #2334642Happy new yearParticipantAs jews, we’re supposed to follow the Torah. Nothing more, nothing less.
All this other stuff is a new religion. Like other new religions.
