So do some of u mean to tell me that the Baba Sali, Rav Kaduri, Rav mordicai sharabi and ect. Were fakes and no one shouldve gone to them for berachot????
BS”D
No, they were not fakes chas vesholom. Problem is that with the expansion of the economy and access to mass media, some real fakes are out there.
And yeridas hadoirois has sadly taken its toll on the family of Baba Sali ZYA. Of his descendants only R’ David shlit”a is legitimate. One of the others has a net worth of more than 100 million tax free dollars and yet another, an ex-con, is known more for absurd statements, klalot and political machinations.
Baba Sali ZYA knew this was the case and his last years, after the petira of his eldest son and true yoresh, Baba Meir ZYA, were not peaceful ones unfortunately.
The only other well known mekubalim who have any sort of reputation are R’ David Pinto from France and R’ Eliezer Berland of Breslov Yerushalayim.
Still, R’ David Abuhatzeira of Nahariya, EY is the only mekubal whose name is not tarnished by any sort of suspicion or controversy.
That is, unless you count the Admou”r meCreedmoor whose name is not tarnished by any suspicion or controversy regarding his ignorance, greed and knowledge of the ins and outs of the Federal, State and municipal prison, mental hospital and most of all, welfare, system!
