G-d Gave the Jews the Torah. All is in it. (Pirkei Avot 5:22)<\/a><\/p>\n

Louis Pasteur found the cure to rabies and the basis for immunization<\/a> in the Talmud.<\/p>\n

The Torah provides us with physical immunizations and cures and spiritual protection – through prayer and segulas. Some involve both.<\/p>\n

Here are some spiritual protections that offer help:<\/p>\n

To find out spiritual cures – one must\u00a0 first ask: “Why is G-d sending this virus?”<\/a><\/p>\n

Just as a father reprimands a son or daughter to correct their behavior – so does Hash-m. His guide is the Torah.<\/p>\n

Thus, We can offer a general solutions<\/p>\n

\n
1. – Torah Observance.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

   If a person is Jewish – so we start by following the Shulchan Aruch<\/a>.<\/p>\n

   If a Person is a Gentile – they start by observing the 7 Noahide laws from the Torah for all people.<\/a><\/p>\n

   2. Avoid Lashon Harah<\/span><\/strong> – Speaking badly of others. Add to that a dose of learning the Halachot of Lashon HaRa with family daily.<\/p>\n

   It is interesting that the One Who spoke Lashon HaRa frequently was subject to the ailment of Tzaraat<\/a>. The Metzora<\/a> had to stay in quarantine for a period of time until his ailments healed. He or She had to introspect about their speech having caused others to be isolated – now they are isolated.<\/a><\/p>\n

   3. Rabbi Haim Kanievski Wrote a letter saying – to be saved from virus – We should avoid lashon hara and be more mevater \/ yielding towards others.<\/strong><\/p>\n

   4. Studying Torah protects the learner.<\/strong> Shluchei Mitzvot Einam Nizukim. Agents to do a Mitzvot are not harmed. Thus we give the traveler money to distribute to poor people when the person arrives at their destination. Since they are involved in bringing money for a poor person the are involved in a Mitzvah and thus protected.<\/p>\n

   Studying the Torah has an added benefit. The learner is not only protected when he or she learns – but even after the Torah study – the person is protected.<\/p>\n

   5. Recite Tehillim. –<\/strong> In times of Difficulties we recite Tehillim. Each Tehillim addresses a particular concern. Saying them in General is also good.<\/p>\n

   The Tehillim \/ Psalm against plagues is 91.<\/p>\n

   The Gemara in Maseches Shevuos, 15b, refers to Tehillim 91<\/a> as “Shir shel paga’im” or “Shir shel nega’im” – a special tefilla<\/i> for protection from such plagues. This is a tefilla<\/i> especially fitting for today.<\/p>\n

   Do this and take your precautions and pray and Hash-m will guard you. Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
