This week's parasha, Tazriya, speaks about tzaraat , which Chazal tell us primarily came as a result of the sin of lashon hara . The Zohar HaKadosh, in parashat Tazria writes, the same way a person is held accountable for the negative speech that he says, so too he is held accountable for the positive speech that he could have said but refrained from. One of the primary purposes of a person being created is to use his speech for holiness and good. When a person is presented with an opportunity to give another person a kind word or a compliment, he is obligated to do so. A person's words can have amazing effects on other people. Our words can give strength, courage and even life if used properly. The Be'er HaParasha tells a story of a working man who we'lll call Yehuda from Borough Park, whose ability to guard his eyes is something to be admired. One day, one of his friends asked him if perhaps he doesn't have the same tests in this area that everybody else does. The man answered, he has very big tests and he explained how he is able to overcome them. When he was younger in yeshiva, he worked hard on guarding his eyes as best as he could and, although he wasn't perfect, it was definitely noticeable to others that he was being careful. One Purim, a classmate of his, had a little too much to drink and he came over to Yehuda and asked him to give him a beracha . Yehuda said, “Who, me? Who am I to give you a beracha ?” The other boy told him, “What do you mean? You are the tzaddik of the yeshiva. There is no one like you in guarding their eyes. Ask anyone, they'll tell you the same thing. There is no one as big of a tzaddik as you are in this yeshiva.” Yehuda said, those words had such an impact on him. From that day on, whenever he had a test in this area, he would quickly remind himself what a tzaddik people considered him and how it would be beneath him to give that up in a moment of weakness. That boy, who was drunk that day, has no recollection of what he said, but with his one comment, he gave chizuk to Yehuda for an entire lifetime. Another rabbi said, in his yeshiva, they had a rule, whenever a boy got engaged, a member of the staff had to go to the engagement party and represent everyone else. One time, a boy got engaged and the party was a four-hour drive away. Rabbi Binyamin, the Mashgiach of the Yeshiva, was slated to go, but he couldn't see himself traveling back and forth for eight hours. He asked the Rosh Yeshiva if he could possibly skip the party, but the rosh yeshiva adamantly denied his request, saying it was imperative that someone from the rabbis of the yeshiva represented them. So Rabbi Binyamin went, and when he arrived, his student was very happy to see him. They honored him by asking him to say a few words. He got up and gave a Devar Torah and spoke about the chatan . Most of the crowd was not listening, and the rabbi felt that his words were falling on deaf ears. Nonetheless, he gave the speech as if people were listening. He then danced with the boy and went on his way. Some years later, Rabbi Binyamin bumped into this boy, his former student, and was surprised to see him holding a sefer and carefully analyzing it while waiting for a bus. This boy, everyone was sure, was not going to be from those who delved into Torah study. The rabbi greeted him warmly and asked him what he was up to. The young man said he was currently a Maggid Shiur in a very good Yeshiva. The rabbi asked him how that came about. He said he was not planning on staying in learning, but that day, when the rabbi spoke about him at his engagement party, his in-laws were listening very intently, and they got so inspired and felt that their future son-in-law could become big in Torah. So, along with his wife, they encouraged him to continue learning, and from that day on, his learning took on new meaning and was elevated to a much higher level. The rabbi thought his words were wasted, but little did he know, those words changed the lives of that family and generations to come. Our words are very powerful. We must never hold back from giving people the words of encouragement that they so desperately could use. Shabbat Shalom.

The Psychiatric Trauma Effects of War & Coping Styles of Different Israeli Cohorts Prof. Juni delineates the internal defensive coping approaches available to Israeli Jews. Confronted by profound threat to their safety – especially as it may contrast with the safety of Jews in other countries – they basically have three options: 1) To convince themselves thatJews in other countries are not any safer, pointing to antisemitism, reported events threatening protests and/or theorizing about imminent catastrophes in the diaspora; 2) To convince themselves that they are actually safe, relying on various spins about the situation; 3) Resorting to identification with the greater Israeli Jewish population, nationalism, and Zionism,arguing that Jews are safest in our own country where we can defend ourselves – often coupled with religious conviction that G-d has our back. Dr. Juni explains how prolonged tension and repeated trauma can lead to total personality breakdown. Painting the entire world black and dangerous can have debilitating consequences on the ego, well-being, and relationship capacity. In terms of theological effects,Juni adds that people under prolonged stress will start doubting their basic beliefs and commitments – a reaction which makes them feel guilty and disoriented. He points out,however, that such reactions are a very normal part of a positive adjustment which usually passes and often results in a commitment to values which is stronger that it was before the crisis. Juni presents three distinct groups who show different anxiety reaction patterns to the current war and traumatic events: Native Israelis, Dual citizens, and 2 nd -generation Holocaust survivors. Native Israelis are not here by choice and have no escape options – and are forced to“face the music.” Dual citizens – especially those who chose to stay – are apt to start second-guessing their decisions and their resolve, and might feel guilty for endangering their loved ones for an ideal as they second-guess their beliefs and resolve. Second generation Holocaust Survivors may well become convinced that their “never Again” mantra was a sham as they identify with their parents and feel they are re-living the Holocaust they thought they had left behind in past history. More poignantly, these survivors may vilify themselves for betraying their children whom they raised in Israel with the implicit promise that they will be protected from a repetition of anything resembling the Holocaust. For each cluster, Juni outlines the phenomenology of their reactions, the logic and pseudo-logic they engage in, their attitudes,and the stances that help them cope, as well as the effects of their beliefs, their self-image, their fears, and their harrowing anticipations. In terms of intervention, Juni stresses that the main first-line option for these anxiety reactions is psychotropic medication – specifically anxiolytics. What we are dealing with is a chemical/physiological reaction to trauma (anxiety). There is no feasibility of using psychological therapies for people who are in panic mode. Behavioral therapies and talk therapies are often helpful as well, but only after the acute reactions are first brought under control medically. In conclusion, Rabbi Kivelevitz relates his recent experiences in Israel. Having met a number of terror victims' families, he saw firsthand the amazing bravery of spirit and national identification among various sectors of the population which brought out the best in Israelis. Prof. Juni is one of the foremost research psychologists in the world today. He has published ground-breaking original research in seventy different peer reviewed journals and is cited continuously with respect by colleagues and experts in the field who have built on his theories and observations. He studied in Yeshivas Chaim Berlin under Rav Yitzchak Hutner, and in Yeshiva University as a Talmid of Rav Joseph Dov Soloveitchik. Dr. Juni is a board member of the Association of Orthodox Jewish Scientists and has regularly presented addresses to captivated audiences. Associated with NYU since 1979, Juni has served as Director of PhD programs, all the while heading teams engaged in cutting-edge research. Professor Juni's scholarship on aberrant behavior across the cultural, ethnic, and religious spectrum is founded on psychometric methodology and based on a psychodynamic psychopathology perspective. He is arguably the preeminent expert in Differential Diagnostics, with each of his myriad studies entailing parallel efforts in theory construction and empirical data collection from normative and clinical populations. Professor Juni created and directed the NYU Graduate Program in Tel Aviv titled Cross-Cultural Group Dynamics in Stressful Environments. Based in Yerushalayim, he collaborates with Israeli academic and mental health specialists in the study of dissonant factors and tensions in the Arab-Israeli conflict and those within the Orthodox Jewish community, while exploring personality challenges of second-generation Holocaust survivors. Below is a partial list of the professional journals where Professor Juni has published 120 theoretical articles and his research findings (many are available online): Journal of Forensic Psychology; Journal of Aggression, Maltreatment, and Trauma; International Review of Victimology; The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease; International Forum of Psychoanalysis; Journal of Personality Assessment; Journal of Abnormal Psychology; Journal of Psychoanalytic Anthropology; Psychophysiology; Psychology and Human Development; Journal of Sex Research; Journal of Psychology and Judaism; Contemporary Family Therapy; American Journal on Addictions; Journal of Criminal Psychology; Mental Health, Religion, and Culture.
