There is No End to the New Inventions of the Sitra Achra (the "Other Side")

About a week ago, the "U'vacharta BaChayim" (And You Shall Choose Life) gathering was held by the members of the Bnei HaNeurim (The Youth) group—a Chanukah assembly focused on abstaining from technological devices that corrupt the human soul.

Before you is a powerful hidden letter from the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a (may he live long and good days), which he wrote to the young men:

B"H (With the Help of Heaven), For His Name and His Praise, First Night of Chanukah 5785

The "U'vacharta BaChayim" (And You Shall Choose Life) Youth Union

On the day they defeated the Greeks and left no remnant of them, it is an obligation for each and every person to abstain from all the new technological devices that are invented anew every day; telephones, music players, radio, internet, Xiaomi, smartphones, iPhones, and all other evil maladies and terrible blemishes that have no precedent, not in the Generation of the Flood nor in any other generation. There is no end to the new inventions of the Sitra Achra (the "Other Side" / forces of evil), the Satan, and Lilith (a force of impurity), who seek every possible way to penetrate the hearts of the pure boys and girls, who do not know how to escape them and destroy them.

And this is the entire delay for shidduchim (marriage matches), and for children for those who are married. Let each and every person take it upon themselves to smash their Xiaomi, smartphone, and iPhone forever and ever. Let no boy or girl dare to approach these destructive tools, for anyone who carries them will never leave Gehinnom (purgatory) — not in this world, not in the World to Come, and not at the Resurrection of the Dead. For there, one sees sights that were not seen in the Generation of the Flood nor in any other generation.

With the blessing of the Torah,

With great love,

Eliezer Berland
