Listen: Rabbi Meir Shlomo zt"l – The Righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a Suffers the Pain of the Shechinah

We must not forget. The holy words of Rabbi Meir Shlomo zt"l, painfully explaining how the righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a takes upon himself severe sufferings to sweeten all decrees from upon the people of Israel. These are the words we brought then, but their relevance only strengthens and grows.

After we brought on the site the words of the tzaddikim revealing to us that the Sitra Achra itself fights with Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a. We bring before you the powerful words of Rabbi Meir Shlomo shlit"a, shedding light on the suffering of Rabbi Berland shlit"a. These words were spoken in Rabbi Meir Shlomo's regular lesson and were very piercing. Shuvu Banim International brings them before you.

"The righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland suffers from an affliction." Revealed Rabbi Meir Shlomo shlit"a to those who have yet to understand that Rabbi Berland shlit"a's battle is for all of us. "One of the tzaddikim was with Rabbi Berland shlit"a, as well as two of my students, and they asked him, honored Rabbi, what should we pray for you? To their surprise, Rabbi Berland shlit"a answered – Pray for me that I remain in exile, as long as I am in exile you can sleep peacefully. The righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a chose all this pain for himself to protect us.

To bring the concept of 'the pain of the Shechinah' closer to the heart, one must think of all the bodily and spiritual problems that everyone goes through, and particularly each individual in Israel, and combine them together. As if, said Hashem, you do not have the understanding to comprehend all this pain, therefore Hashem took a tzaddik, eighty years old, with a pacemaker and countless other problems and ailments we have no idea about, and if that wasn't enough, he is pursued, not in his home, without the books that are so important to him and to which he is so connected. They place him in detention, on a mattress, where he groans and suffers. When we see all this before our eyes, perhaps we will understand what the pain of the Shechinah is. This is how Hashem brings it closer to our hearts.

A person who prays for this tzaddik and says Tikkun HaKlali for him, actually prays for himself, because we are part of this pain of the Shechinah. The righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a could have lived in the honor of the world as one of the Rebbes, everything wonderful and everyone would just bow before him. However, he chose for himself to be disgraced, humiliated, and pursued. His greatness in Torah is unfathomable, his kedushah (holiness) is unfathomable. Rabbi Berland shlit"a said that the intifada would stop after the assembly in Hebron, the Prime Minister came and said we ensured the intifada would stop – really, all the honor to him.

Now we are expecting to see salvations, with Hashem's help, on the eve of the Seventh Day of Pesach, following the prayer assembly organized by Rabbi Berland shlit"a in Hebron.

Rabbi Berland shlit"a is in distress, we are in distress, it is not his matter at all. Rabbi Berland completed his rectification at the age of thirty, what has he been doing since?! Torah day and night, Hitbodedut and kedushah that is completely unfathomable to the mind. We tell ourselves – he chose this for himself. And the Rabbi shlit"a says say Tikkun HaKlali for me, 'Fast for me' said Esther. 'If I perish, I perish', where did Esther go? Esther entered the lion's den! The entire Israel is a collection of transgressions and mitzvot, this is the standing of the Shechinah. We strive to add Torah and effort, fulfilling mitzvot, each according to his value, and this gives strength to the Shechinah. However, they – our brothers, only bring transgressions, poor souls do not know what they are doing at all, and the matters are very difficult. And unfortunately today, even from our camp, people are falling. What do we do?! The Sitra Achra brings out such forces of the internet that burn neshamos (souls) and bring them to such severe transgressions. If we saw the balance, we would cry, what do we do against this? So a tzaddik came who took upon himself the disgrace of nonsense he has not been associated with since the age of thirty, and they run after him as if he is a criminal. Understand, this is all heavenly matters, it is all just to protect the people of Israel, to protect us. He took upon himself severe sufferings at the age of eighty. At this age, a person sits in his corner and recounts his history. So we do him a favor and say Tikkun HaKlali for him.
