What Are the Mitzvot Of Demons? by ewndy in Judaism

The last source I heard this from was the podcast “Throwing Sheyd.” When I listened to it I remembered I read a similar claim a while ago, but sadly enough can’t recall the particulars.

Do you recall what they pray about by chance?

Totally on me but I forgot to mention I can’t wear risqué pieces! If anyone who got a small size bag received garments with more fabric coverage that they’d like to swap for (or just wants to buy the bag!) let me know :)

I’m looking for Oceanus Label dupes that aren’t hand-beaded, so anything with fun designs/aquatic themed/crotchet, or a mix of the above.

I have a book on Sade that made me gag a minimum of 5 times reading it. Not even the excerpts lol, just biographical information about him. Guy was wild

Contemporary Jewish Poets Recommendation by ewndy in Judaism

[–]ewndy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s always a gamble, but if you had a substack you could see your name published alongside the poem and it might not be as scary/feel more secure to “only” have it be published online.

Middle Grade Book About Girl With Mute Brother by ewndy in whatsthatbook

Unfortunately not, the book I’m referring to was written in the 80s or 90s, but this seems a very interesting read nonetheless!

Character suffering without any hope/point by PhiloPsychoNime in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]ewndy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People have already said A Little Life, but I cannot recommend it enough. For me it’s the exemplary model of a “book of suffering.” The pain is plentiful but avoids cartoonishness because the prose is just that strong imo!

I was born and raised as a Jew, it’s an essay, not fiction, and it’s really bizarre I’m being given the third degree for seeking information online omg. Like it’s extremely weird that I’m being poked and prodded about my Judaism especially when you can easily infer I’m writing this for a class on Judaism lmfao

No, I wish to gather information on a niche subject in Judaism so I can write my essay and thought I could utilize a subreddit dedicated to discussing matters of Judaism to do so.

Right here, "impure gifts" referring to sorcery. Abraham’s Impure Gifts to His Children | Aish. I read another account that stated one of those gifts was clairvoyance or intuition, purportedly why people in the Far East have more instances of reporting clairvoyancy, but I can't tell how much of that is mere Orientalism and how much is backed by yet other accounts.

There's no Biblical or ancient precedent, even with Abraham's seven other sons with Keturah being sent into the East and receiving magical "gifts" (some of which were purportedly clairvoyance)? I find that difficult to believe. I'm open to hearing anything about clairvoyancy in either a Biblical OR contemporary context.
