“Just be a simple Jew, you have one G-D, you have the Shulchan Aruch, you have all the laws. You learn Chumash, you learn Gemara, you learn Rambam, you learn Shulchan Aruch, you learn Mussar. This is what you do. Why do you want to be all the time unique and special? why to invent new things, because you’re bored? What is this? There was no Judaism 3,100 years before this nonsense started? Rabbi Akiva didn’t have him (a Rebbe), so he couldn’t connect to Hashem? The Ari HaKadosh couldn’t connect to Hashem? There were all born in the wrong generation? For 3,100 years, all these holy people, they couldn’t connect to Hashem because there was no rabbi Ploney Almony? Do you really believe this nonsense?” – Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi (exerpted from 7:56 Do NOT idol worship any rabbi)
