    this is horrific & tragic. our Gedolim are leaving us on a weekly basis & its just getting worse RL. do you remember just a few years ago-before this mageifa of Gedolim started-when we only heard once or twice a year cv that a tzaddik was niftar? 28 Gedolei Hador have passed away already this year RL
    just to mention the ones niftar THIS PAST MONTH

    1)Rav Shalom Weinberger ztl-Tchaba Rov,-in Yerushalyim-October 29 2014-74

    2)Rabbi Shlomo Shalush ZTL-Chief Sephardi Rabbi of Haifa-November 4 2012-74

    3)HaRav Yaakov Dovid HaKohen Katz ZTL, Rosh Yeshiva of the main Chabad Yeshiva in Kfar Chabad-November 16 2014-83

    4)Rav Moshe Twersky ZTL- rosh yeshiva at Yeshiva Toras Moshe in Sanhedriah Murchevet in Yerushalayim

    is it even POSSIBLE for someone to say this is coincidence?

    will WE EVER start doing teshuva?

    Im sorry to be the one to say this & it brings tears to my eyes, but righteous tzaddikim dont belong staying in a world of people who wont do teshuva, they belong with Hashem & his shechina in olam Haba.

    If we want Hashem to give us these Tzaddikim to guide us through the generation then we need to listen to them %100 & we need to do teshuva to be deserving of their guidance & Torah.

    May we all start doing Teshuva ASAP before any other Tzaddikim are niftar CV

    May his neshama have an aliya

  2. We also have to comprehend what a Blessed Nation we are, that there are in the 1st place, so many Gedolim in our midst, despite the sad reality that this leads to more Petiros of Gedolim.
