SIGHT SEEING 8 RESPONSE TO DREAMS

So we're talking about somebody who has difficult sights in their dreams, and they're nafshoi aguma aleiim, they're feeling very anxious from it.

It's actually considered a mitzvah to assist somebody in allaying those fears by giving them what we call a hatov as chaloim, which is when you take three people, and as we mentioned, it should be kruiven, people that are close to you, people that are friends.

This was part of Yosef's, if you could call it, mistake.

I mean, he had a reason to go to his brothers, but the brothers hated him, and therefore they gave an interpretation that didn't really end up working out so well.

It was great for you guys, but not for them.

The bottom line is you're supposed to go to even people that are youngsters, even people that are minors and are not bar mitzvah, it's better to go to three ketanim to serve as your interpreter for your dream and to do atavos chaloim than to get adults that have no connection to you.

So it's important to get people that are close to you who they actually feel for you and want to give you atavos chaloim to interpret the dream to be a good one.

This is considered a mitzvah.

I'm not sure if it's because of Ben Adonai just to allay someone's fears, or it's actually a mitzvah to take care of the dream.

This is a proper response to some kind of premonition, and it's considered Zerizim, Makdim, and a mitzvah to do this right away in the morning and not to delay.

Besides with the Atav HaShalayim, it's also brought down that somebody should fast.

So it's not one or the other.

It's fasting and Atav HaShalayim, or Atav HaShalayim and fasting both together.

Someone who cannot fast, someone who's pregnant, nursing, someone who's sick, someone who's a tamu chacham, and fasting is going to kill their day of learning.

All of these situations, which you're trying to avoid the fast, then you do atav et chaloim, and also redeem the food that you'd be eating in a day, however much it is, and give that money to tzedakah, primarily the tzedakah shebi, for tamid chachamim.
