Questions And Answers with Daniel. Part 4. From FC with Daniel, Jerusalem, 6-Mar-2007. Ask: Zeev b. from charleston (25/02/2007 #50) Question: Hi Daniel:)) You are exceptional smart, and as non religiues man would kindly ask you a question. Can you be religiues in a way of excercise mitzvot she between a man and his friends (bein adam le havero only), or must be excersise mitzvot between a man and Hashem (she bein adam la makom). If the g-d is so great why he needs us to pray for his greatness? Thanks, Zeev Daniel: A jew must prove to HKB"HU that he wants to be his true servant, therefore he must do all the Mitzvot at least try to. Do acts of kindness and pray to his father in heaven always to help him with (in) every little thing and every big thing that we believe a hundred percent that he and HKB"HU and this way we show only he is the creator and ruler of all creations and that we are his true and loyal servants . Also that he is our father our only true father.
Ask: Samuel from Jerusalem (28/02/2007 #73) Question: Dear Daniel, Baruch Hashem that you are able to communicate and spread your such clear and revealing messages. I am a baal Teshuva now for about 10 years. I have made a lot of progress and continue to do so slowly all the time. But I have not removed the non-jewish part of my life completely - like television. I am finding it very hard. What will happen if I don't succeed in everything I want to achieve before Moshiach comes? Daniel: Oh my, Shmuel of Jerusalem. What a sad question you are ten years a Beal Teshuvah. So long .The first thing you should have taken out of your house is the Television. That's the reason you're finding it so hard to really do Teshuvah. You bring the Goysh world into your home into your heart and into your head with it therefore you could never be a complete Beal Teshuvah until you get rid of all the books and the newspapers and Radio. that are Goyish. By the way like in mitsrayim where the jews that couldn't detach completely from the ways of the egyptions those four fifths (4/5) of the nation stayed in mitsrayim were killed and stayed and never left. also now when moshiach comes those who are still atteched to the goyishe ways also will not leave.
Ask: Tova from silver spring (02/03/2007 #79) Question: daniel, I'm thirteen years old and am trying very hard to get close with hashem even though some people in my class could look more close to hashem , but I love hashem more than any one can imagine and it is very hard for me to get close to hashem but I am trying and I would like to know what i can do to get even closer to hashem and I'm a religiouse girl and say perek shira every day (try to) and I try to daven every day but sometimes is very hard and can be very ADD thank you and i totally understand everything that u are saying and believe 105% thanks again -tova Daniel: Tova I was very happy to read what you wrote and I bentch you that you'll get closer to don't worry too much about adding more and more things to say. Add instead chessed towards other people wherever you can. Dress B'Tsnius [Modestly] because not everyone in silverspring knows what Tsnius is and I know you'll always have Siyatta Dishmaya (Heavenly Assistance) and as much as you love Hashem he loves you back.
I'm sorry that I don't have answers for all the questions, Daniel's father. (End)
