The real reason men have big debts

EXCERPT FROM A SHIUR GIVEN BY RAV ELIEZER BERLAND, SHLITA, FOR PARSHAT KI TISA

Esther said: “When am I lost, I am lost” (Megillat Esther, 4:16). It’s written that the Shechina is called ‘Esther’. In every single generation, there is a woman who is the holy Shechina, and she gives voice to the words of the Shechina.

WOMEN SHOULD KNOW, THAT IF YOU SEE THE WOMEN MAKING TESHUVA, THEN THAT MEANS THAT NOW IS THE TIME OF THE REDEMPTION.

It’s like Esther and Mordechai, who spent his whole life going to the courtyard of the womens’ residence, from the seventh year of the King’s rule up to the 12th - five years. And Esther is the holy Shechina, and [Mordechai would go to find out] ‘how’s it going, with the Shechina?’

EVERY IMPURE EMISSION CREATES 400 MILLION DEMONS

And so, it’s forbidden for a man to have keri (an impure emission). If a man has keri, then he will be lost. The whole reason why a man has debts is because he’s having keri. Every time a man has keri, he creates another 400 million demons. Every drop of keri is another 400 million demons.

And so,[after this occurs] a person needs to immediately recite the 10 chapters of tehillim[1] (Psalms), to [rescue them] from the klipa (evil husk) that’s taken them…

IN EVERY DROP OF WATER, THERE IS FIRE.

The Rambam says water contains the secret of fire. Today, they’ve proven that it’s possible to make fire from water. The energy of fire exists within water. The two names, E-l and Elokim, chessed (kindness) and Gevurah (strict judgment). The man is chessed and the woman is Gevurah, and in the [kabbalistic realm] of keter (crown) this is joined together [lit: composed].

> 10 different melodies, 10 different languages of geula (redemption).

MOSHIACH NEEDS TO COME ON THE 13TH OF ADAR

And today, it’s the 13th of Adar, tomorrow it’s permitted to eat until ten minutes to five, and now we are going to bring the geula. Because Moshiach needs to come on the 13th of Adar, and this is what Yosef hinted to with the letters on his goblet…that on the 13th of Adar Moshiach ben Yosef needs to be revealed.

For Moshiach is going to subdue the ‘Liliths[2]’, the Liliths will merit to the praises, “Praise Him, in the firmament of His power, Praise Him for His mighty acts, praise Him as befits the abundance of His greatness. Praise Him with the blast of the shofar, praise Him with lyre and harp.” (Tehillim 150).

> So, every time a man has keri, he creates another 400 million demons, and all of his debts come from this.
