New video from Rabbi Yuval Ovadia, in English
Title is actually "End of Days Special" and I've only heard the first couple of minutes, but thought it
would be worthwhile blogging. I don't know what he's going to say, guess I'll find out soon enough.

The signs are all here but it’s so painful and difficult to keep waiting for Moshiach every day in such a terrible world. How long more can so much chaos continue? The Geulah should be here any moment.
-Aliza
It's not painful for everyone. some people are still having a great time and going on holidays celebrating etc. They don't care that half the world is being detroyed by floods and fires. It does seem strange to me that this is the case.

Iran bans nuclear inspectors as fears grow it is creating terrifying nukes
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/iran-bans-un-nuclear-inspectors-30960022
Brings to mind the prophecy in Yalkut Shimoni "The king of Persia destroys the world"
Those people who do not care that many people are suffering are not close to Hashem and their reward will be much less when Moshiach comes.

$15.5 billion bloodbath as chaos hits Chinese property developers

Yes. But the continuation of the prophecy that all the nations of the world are seized with terror, including Israel, and then the moshiach immediately comes.

I haven't yet got a chance to see anything yet either. I'm ultra busy (things take me way longer lately, and also lately I fall asleep too easily such as when reading or listening to stuff. I imagine some parts must be interesting.

Aliza in response to your comment, FYI there's a huge bunch of really sheltered people in the yeshiva world and chassidic world. Many of them don't even allow newspapers such as Hamodia into their homes. They're major into GYE (guard your eyes). Also ears for that matter.
כי ברב חכמה רב כעס ויוסיף דעת יוסיף מכאוב
Their lives revolve around their families and extended families, and that's why so many are cheerful and full of bitachon. There are also family members and/or organizations who come to their rescue when certain (not all) things go bad. It depends on which kind of things. Such as if they're politically-recognized as "tzorot" in their circles, even if there are tzorot which are way worse. While the fires in Hawaii, hurricanes in Florida and you name it they probably are aware of, yet its not primary on their radar because they're so sheltered.
There's exceptions such as Covid, however man-made that was/is.

My brothers don’t have Internet but word gets around in shul They hear about most stuff. I also have a friend who does have Internet but she’s not really interested in currents events
My neighbors don’t have smart phones and do not know about most stuff going on They seem more content They r not scared out of their minds and don’t know enough to daven about Gates or the new world order. For the rest of us who do know it’s a process of fear and slowly coming to full Emunah and reliance on Hashem. I honestly don’t know which is better but I think Hashem needs both types around. Malky
Malky even if you'd explain Gates and the NWO to the Nth degree, many might just respond with a blank/confused/strange look, or simply sigh and say we need Moshiach, without truly comprehending the enormity of evil out there. Even more likely, is they'd be too distracted by family members to pay much attention.
I think many are as pure as souls can get nowadays, because of truly lacking the curiosity to partake of the Eitz Hadaas.
Ironically, with everything i know about world news, I'm in even greater fear of:
My body, my mazal and weather.
Because those three have been =my= personal terrorists for decades, and worsening by the year.
The latest to be conking out are my fingers. Both functional and major pain. So help people who are disabled, as any safety net is practically nil. I know this from experience and observation. The situation is horrific.
M.M.
The weather is unpredictable everywhere now. However, you can change your mazel by (1) moving house or (2) changing your Hebrew name, or just adding a name to the one you already have. If you do decide to add a name, it has to be read out in shul, just like a newborn. You literally become a different person.
Although changing or adding a name should not be done unless you've spoken first to someone with more knowledge than me.
People generally don't change their names unless they are dying, and then they add a name such as Chaim or Chaya - which means "life" - in the hope that it will give them life.
All our names are Divinely given and contain the energy and power that we require to complete our mission in this world. If you change your name, you are also changing your destiny. It is said that if we all put our tzures down on a big table and we were told to pick up a parcel of tzures from that table, we would all pick the one we already have, simply because we don't have what it takes to suffer someone else's misery. We have been given our own suffering based on whatever our soul decided before it came down to this world.
I just wanted to say all that, because changing a name may seem like an easy way out of things... but as they say, be careful what you wish for because you just might get it....
Anyway I wish you a Refuah Shleimah, and good weather!
So what about when Moshiach comes soon? How will our names be relevant to us if we will all be free of suffering? How will the suffering we chose before coming down to this world be relevant if that suffering will be over?
-Shlomo
It will be relevant because we will have lived through it. And we need our names even when Moshiach comes, that's how we're identified, and everyone has different roles to play according to their abilities. Cohanim will be Cohanim serving in the Temple, for example.
Names are not just about suffering, names are everything - it's our personality, our talents, whether we are intelligent or not, it's all there coded into our names. When you write the name in full such as Daniel ben Chaim/Miriam, if you know what you're doing you can analyze that name, it's like a passuk in the Torah. You need both parents Hebrew names to do this.
And if it's a Cohen or Levi, the words HaCohen or HaLevi are included.
There's a lot of fakers on the internet trying to do this, but if you want it done properly you need to find a real 100% genuine orthodox rabbi to do it for you. Or you could mess around with it yourself and see what you come up with, if you can speak Hebrew.
Change your name —Change your Mazal

—Moshe
I thought there will be no suffering once Moshiach finally arrives? I’ve also heard everyone will be very intelligent when Moshiach finally arrives
-Rina
Yes Rina everything will be known when Moshiach is here. We will be in the world of Truth. Suffering will be gone.
Rina, we will all increase in daas ("unitive knowledge and awareness of Hash-m) when Moshiach comes. TC
Devorah, I just want to say, I don't understand why people would have trouble with your posts about weird stuff going on in the sky. Either you believe or you don't. Why would people feel so threatened by the idea that they want to lash out at you? I just don't get it. I personally haven't seen anything really dramatic in the sky, but the sunsets in the last two years have been really beautiful, unusually so. Also the weather has changed dramatically in the last few years, the seasons seem to have shifted oddly. I live in Israel and this year we had a thunderstorm in Sivan and rain also in Iyar and other such things, and that just isn't "supposed to" happen. Clearly things are going on that are unusual, not only in the sky, but in the happenings of the entire world. I hope that Moshiach comes very soon. Thank you for your blog. TC
Thank you TC, much appreciated.
Nothing to hope for. There’s more than enough proof and signs that Moshiach is coming VERY SOON.
-Itamar
Devorah, on Friday night we saw the half moon setting and it was bright orange and huge. It was glowing like a bright orange light. I've seen reddish moons before but never anything like this. Any thoughts? TC
It was also orange here, but not completely orange, just the bottom half. Really weird. It seems to be reflecting something near the sun, and people have been photographing an orange moon for a long time now. Typically nothing is written about this anywhere public. I don't understand why it's not talked about.
To Esther at 8:47
I'm sorry but let's agree to disagree...when Moshiach comes death and suffering will absolutely be eliminated from the world, neither is a natural condition but rather brought upon us by the sin of Adam and Chava in Gan Eden, after which both death and suffering were introduced to this lower state of existence.The world as it is now is not what God wanted for us, we were meant to be immortal and self healing, childbirth was instantaneous and pain free and our physical needs were to be sustained easily while we served Hashem and basked in his glory. The purpose of Moshiach is to restore the world to that former state and to restore Gan Eden back into this world and once again make it a dwelling place for Hakodesh Baruch Hu....May it be speedily in our days.
CSF
Thank you 'nothing'CSF - we will know why we suffered before Mashiach came but there will be no more suffering after his arrival. This was on my mind over Yom Kippur - thanks for the clarity!! Feeling better now going into Sukkas.
