Segulah for Shovavim
The following words were stated by Rav Moshe Forhand, the Author of Shu”t Responsa Ohel Moshe of Makova, in his final will and testament he promised that:
Whoever undertakes any deed of merit as a tikkun for my neshamah—even if he is not among my talmidim, and all the more so if he is—may rely upon my words that he will not depart from this world without complete and sincere teshuvah.
It is revealed and known, before the Kisei HaKavod that I labored greatly to return to Hashem with a full heart, particularly regarding the sins of youth, often with true mesirus nefesh.
Through this avodah, I was granted from Above the ability to assist others as well, to rouse merit for them.
My name is Moshe ben Chaya Sarah; my righteous father’s name is Yosef Tzvi.
