    Dear Rebbetzin Chana Bracha: I need your help.
    I live in Indianapolis, Indiana USA and want to make aliyah for the last 10 years. I feel that there is a blockage somewhere and need to know how to pray about it. Can you please help me about it?? Thank you in advance.

    Dear Gail Ulanow

    I hear you, perhaps I didn't make it clear, he explained how Haman wanted to destroy us, but Hashem didn't allow him, on the contrary through Haman's choices the ultimate outcome was the opposite. He wanted to kill us--his choice was his, but the actual action of killing us was in Haman's hand, so he was unable to carry his evil choice into action.

    Thanks for your comment, Chana Bocha Siegelbaum

  3. Hi Chana Brocha

    U stated in your recent email that Rabbi David Aaron explained in his recent Purim class that we aren't in charge of our actions only of our choices. I have to disagree with this. It seems by making choices we are in charge of our subsequent actions--when we make a good choice it is
    reflected in the subsequent action that we take.

  5. Baruch Hashem. Ein Od Mil'Vado. You are promoting Neo-Sabbateanism clothed in the garments of - l'havdeel - Yiddishkeit. I recognize this because I was rescued from avodah zarah. You are misguiding Jewish women and any Jew that is unknowledgeable enough to follow you. Make teshuvah to Torah.

    1. Baruch Hashem. Ein Od Mil'Vado. Notice the fifth comment - mine in fact - is synonymous with what? Hei. Teshuvah. You lack daas Torah. Please make teshuvah so that Jewish women are not mislead. If Hashem did not love you then HaKadosh Barrac Hu would not inspire me to do this. You picked up avodah zarah from your time in galus/exile. Because your biography names Denmark. A very unholy place. Moreover, your biography has no academic institutions named. That is curious to me. Peculiar, too.

    2. after looking into this i see i *may* be wrong and apologize. but i do think that teaching this so openly is not very helpful for people like me who literally escaped a cult...and also...many people do not know even how to keep shabbos or pray...there is so many basic essentials to focus on and what good is kabbalah if people are mechalel shabbos?

      this is exactly why this isn't supposed to be plastered all over the net...it doesn't benefit people unless they have a solid foundation in torah and with all of the fake kabbalists running around it just makes it very difficult to discern good from bad. do you now see why halachically this is reserved for advanced students? it's a short-cut for some and a confusing issue for many others that ends up creating very awkward things like this so i am really asking you to be careful how you present this.

      i still don't know how to feel but i'll say - again - this is why people aren't supposed to jump into zohar and also why rabbis don't publicly teach it. so pardon my confusion, i was wrong, but also so are you for creating this situation to begin with. so i urge you to reconsider this entire project because is it worth confusing baalei teshuvah and potentially driving them away? or riling up people like me who have a strong allergy to whatever looks like avodah zara? please understand where i am coming from.

      gut moed and please rethink broadcasting these things...we can get a blessing, healing, and so much good by simply observing the commandments without getting deep into kabbalah. truly i ask you this as a brother.

      please reconsider what you're doing because it isn't fair to confuse baalei teshuvah nor is it good to flagrantly disobey halacha...just as my assumption and poor reaction is equally just as bad.
