October 9, 2021

QUESTION:

1) Recently there were more bizarre tzaros in Klal Yisrael. Three bochurim killed in a plane crash on the way to Mezbizh for Shabbos. Last week a 19-year old bochur in America was killed in front of his yeshiva. Is this a special calling from Hashem? Or is it all part of the troubles of the End of Days which are to awaken Klal Yisrael to teshuvah?

ANSWER:

Everything is calling to us, from all directions. It is screaming to us, that the world cannot continue the way it is now, and the world now is like a dying person whose soul is in the midst of leaving the body.
QUESTION
2) How can we detach ourselves from everything’s that going on this world ?
ANSWER
By recognizing that the world today is like a dying person whose soul is in the midst of leaving his body, and it [the soul], and that we should no longer feel connected to this world anymore.
