Just pointing out, if Moshiach comes too soon a person won’t have time to do enough teshuva and tikun and some punishments carry over into the era of Moshiach.
If a person stutters, says the Chofetz Chaim, it meant that they were bad mouthers and didn’t make amends. If they can’t talk at all, mute, they were lifetime slanders and loshon hara-ers. If you see a person bent over and can’t stand straight, that one was massively arrogant. Can’t see properly? Looked at too many women etc.
So I ask you all, how SOON do you want Moshiach? Because we need to rectify ourselves beforehand. Now say, Heaven will help us speed that — anyone like physical affliction, ailments, suffering to cleanse one up?
Effective, perhaps. Not delightful to experience.
So I want Moshiach, but I want to rectify myself through Torah learning. Better that way. Reading the Aggadah like Ein Yaakov and Menoras Hamaor is very good to do that. Especialy reading pages of the Zohar. But ones needs to be clean from anger and have a mikvah in the morning first…
