#839 Prayer to be rescued from lashon hara

RABBI BERLAND'S PRAYER TO BE RESCUED FROM LASHON HARA

#839

TO BE RESCUED FROM LASHON HARA AND TO RAISE UP MY NEFESH (SOUL) 

Master of the World, Who can do anything. In the merit of me being saved from lashon hara (evil speech), and that I will no longer speak any lashon hara, from now until forever, and that I won't take an interest ever again in what’s happening with another person, and what another person is doing. 

And that I will only take an interest in him in order to help him, and in order to feed him and to give him drink, as Rivka did, who only fed and watered even 10 camels, which drink for 30 days, she fed and watered him.  

And this was at evening time, the time of the water-drawers, when only the water-drawers were permitted to go out then.  

And since Rivka only did kindnesses, she merited to be rescued from all sin, and didn’t stumble together will all the daughters of Haran. For, when a person doesn’t speak lashon hara, and only does kindnesses, Hashem guards them from every fault in the brit (i.e. immoral behavior) in the world. 

And so, when a person is sent a test involving speaking lashon hara, and he doesn’t say it, he is immediately raised up from the world of Tehiru to the world of Malbush, because the evil urge to talk which grabbed hold of him, and to use the holy letters for evil, is immediately transformed from one opposite to the other. 

And he immediately merits that the holy letters that he didn’t blemish, raise him up from the world of Tehiru to the world of Malbush , which is where the letters are rooted, and then he can receive prophecy and see the future. 

And so: 

> “A tree (160) of life (68) is she (16), for those who grasp (245) it (7), and its supporters (487) will be made happy (347)” = 1330. 

And so: 

“Emerge will (224) a star (48) from Yaakov, and arise will a tribe / comet from Israel” = 1532. And by way of this, “Hashem (26) is their inheritance (512), and you will give them rest, (98) in peace, (378), until (100) their graves (402)” = 1532. 

And by way of this, we will merit for our nefesh to be raised up = 435, and by way of this, we will merit to be like Rivka, and to become filled with charity and kindness: 

“For, tzedaka (199) is equal (441) [when measured] against (77) all (50) the korbanot (sacrifices) (763)” = 1530. 

AND BY WAY OF THIS, WE WILL BE SAVED FROM LASHON HARA, AND FROM THE DEEDS OF S’DOM.
