Deep Dive: What Ayin Hara Is and Sources

Kosher Money is the bi-weekly podcast from Living Lchaim, hosted by Eli Langer.

This episode of Kosher Money is unlike anything you’ve ever seen.

For the first time ever, our guest, Reb Binyomin Gringras, speaks publicly about the inner secrets he’s uncovered after years of scouring hundreds of little-known seforim and speaking with thousands of Torah giants and hidden tzaddikim.

Reb Binyomin dives deep into the mysterious world of segulos — ancient Jewish customs believed to bring blessing and success. He shares which ones are real and which are made up. We cover segulos for wealth, children, health, lost items, and much more — plus the power of visiting a tzaddik’s kever and what to daven for there.

He also reveals the story of a 19th-century tzaddik who died young but left behind a spiritual masterpiece — a book now being rediscovered that shares practical life advice with profound insights.

By the end, you’ll hear stories that will leave your jaw on the floor.
