Can’t Stop Watching Porn Question: I realize that watching erotic Internet sites leads nowhere and makes me feel spiritually and morally corrupt, but I can’t stop. I have tried everything in order to give up the addiction – mikvahs, cold showers, jogging, learning more Torah, making vows that I would stop, trying the 12 Torah Steps, confessing my problem to a rabbi, but after a few days of going clean, I’m back at the keyboard with a frenzy. I even installed a reliable filter, but I keep punching in the by-pass code. What more can a guy do?     Read more...

Why is Homosexuality an Abomination? Question: I can understand why people get upset with deliberately confrontational, public gay parades in Jerusalem. But why is homosexuality such a no no when it is conducted in private?   Read more...

Why Dress Modestly? Question:
What's wrong with a little V-neck, Dad?
Our family is modern Orthodox. I try to instill in my wife and daughters an appreciation for the laws of modesty, but it always leads to arguments. My wife says that wearing a blouse that reveals the cleft of the chest is the unspoken dress code in the office where she works, and my daughters always answer that all of their friends dress according to the going fashion and they don't want to be the ugly ducklings in their crowd. My question is, how strict can I be if it leads to tension and quarrels at home?

What Makes Me Watch Pornography? Question:
Time and again, I have tried to stop watching pornography on the Internet, but a day later, and sometimes after just a few hours, I'm back at the keyboard, unable to withstand the urge, as if compelled by some kind of magnet whose strength is far greater than mine. Can you tell me what's at the root of this, and what I can do to stop?

JEWISH SEXUALITY
TORAH, KABBALAH, AND SEX


This website is a study of Shmirat HaBrit, based on the Torah, the teachings of our holy Jewish Sages, and the Kabbalah.  Shmirat HaBrit means "guarding the Covenant" by observing the laws of proper sexual behavior. The essays posted emphasize the exalted importance of Shmirat HaBrit to the spiritual and material wellbeing of each and every Jew, to the Nation of Israel, and to the world.

In light of the many questions received in response to Tzvi Fishman’s article on the Arutz Sheva website , regarding the Kabbalist, Rabbi Eliahu Leon Levi, shlita, and Shmirat HaBrit, we are making  available excerpts from Tzvi Fishman’s newly published book,  Secret of the Brit - Torah, Kabbalah, and Sex. These essays may be copied and distributed in order to spread the wisdom and light of the Torah. They are based on the words of our Torah Sages; the secrets of the holy Zohar; and the teachings of the Kabbalist, Rabbi Eliahu Leon Levi, shlita.

Pornoholics Anonymous and its dynamic new Forum are designed to help people addicted to pornography on the Internet escape from its clutches and forge a life-healing connection to G-d.

In addition, the in-progress section on the Art of T'shuva explains the teachings of Rabbi Kook on t'shuva in a clear and concise manner to help readers start out on a joyous new path in life.  

Tzvi Fishman was awarded the Israel Ministry of Education Prize for Creativity and Jewish Culture. His books on Judaism and Jewish themes include: "Tuvia in the Promised Land," "Days of Mashiach," "The Kuzari For Young Readers," and four books on the teachings of Rabbi Kook, "Torat Eretz Yisrael," "War and Peace," "The Art of T'shuva," and "Lights on Orot," co-written with Rabbi David Samson.

The Torah learning on this site is dedicated to the rafuah shlemah of Nachama bat Sarah Shaindel, and the aliyat neshama of Elchanan ben Yehuda, z"l.
