"One Tikkun HaKlali is Worth More Than a Thousand Swords, Arrows, and Bows!" • The Daily Lesson from the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a

Before you is the full daily lesson as delivered by our teacher, the Rav, Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a - yesterday after the Ma'ariv (evening prayer), Monday, Parshas Terumah, the night of the 4th of Adar I:
"So now ten people were killed, yesterday two. And seventy 'poor' Palestinians... This is all because people still haven't broken all the Xiaomis and all the smartphones; whoever does not break his Xiaomi, whoever has a Xiaomi will never leave Gehinnom (purgatory), not even at the Techiyas HaMeisim (Resurrection of the Dead). And every girl should lengthen her skirt to the ankle, both ba'alos teshuvah (women who have returned to faith) and those who are not ba'alos teshuvah. Even one who grew up in Meah Shearim needs to lengthen her skirt. Every time the skirt is not lengthened, another hundred people are killed. The war will continue until Pesach (Passover), maybe longer than Pesach. Because they are advancing house by house; it's impossible to advance faster. Everything is booby-trapped, every place has endless explosives, and soldiers have been killed. Two weeks ago, twenty-four soldiers in one day. It's impossible to conduct the war this way. Therefore, regarding Devorah the Prophetess who went to war, it is written, 'Was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?' (Judges 5:8). There was no shield and no spear; they just threw dust and it became swords, straw and it became arrows. And regarding this, Hashem says as He did to David, 'Sit at My right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet' (Psalms 110:1). 'Sit at My right hand,' Hashem says to him—even this [throwing dust and straw to turn into arrows and swords] is unnecessary. Recite one Tikkun HaKlali (The General Rectification)—it is worth everything! One Tikkun HaKlali is worth more than a thousand swords, a thousand arrows, and a thousand bows! With Hashem's help, everyone should recite three Tikkun HaKlalis every single day, until the end of the war, and then we will merit the complete Geulah (Redemption) speedily in our days, Amen!"
