Reply To: Sheidim

Shmoel, I think a dibbuk possesses you instead of just harming you.

Curiosity, if you just sprinkle ash around yor bed nothing will happen, just you will see their footprints which look like a rooster’s on the ground around you when you wake up. However, if you actually tried the gemaras formula to actually SEE Sheidim which is to take a part of a cat(has to be firstborn several gens)burn it to ash and sprinkle it in your eyeA.no wonder you’d see Sheidim!B. if you actually saw Sheidim, yes you most probably would lose your mind.

WIY, if you do try this out, it says to seal your mouth and put what’s left of the powder into an iron tube which is sealed so there will be no danger.

Avi K, you wouldn’t be the first one. Shlomo Hamelech commanded Sheidim to do his bidding and their king was his servant.( Lots of interesting medrashim on that one.)

Mommam, I don’t know about that so i can’t give you an answer on that one.

Curiosity, about the question…. No comment.
