Even if this was one of rabbi twerskys small books, he did what i said he did. Was that an overarching theme in his other books? Well, if syag would say no, it’s not, and XYZ was his mahalach, then we wouldn’t have to get personal and have a squabble over it. Even if it’s a small part of his methods, how am i not justified in saying that that particular method is not mesorah-based and i believe it to be an error?
I didn’t rely on second hand info, or “what people say”, or whatnot. I read something of his which i disagree with. So sue me.
If these books have helped you in your personal life, then like i said, it’s a net positive. My opinions shouldn’t matter to you. I’m not saying it’s assur to do what he says, or that it’s apikorsus, even if you were to take my opinion to heart. If it works, it works. Being pragmatic in mussar has a mesorah too.
