[Avodah] Interlocking the Fingers

[Meir Rabi]

The Piskei Tshuvos (95:5) brings that Arizal was makpid ....
Rav Chaim Palagi writes that one should stop his wife or children ....

view this video of Rav Eliashiv http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dKkwC2YiOw
Rav Shach zt"l at the Shiva of R. Dr. Aaron Greenbaum zt"l sat talking to
the Avielim for 10 - 15 minutes, with his fingers
interlocked most of the time.

So we are headed to where angels fear to tread
Why do people think that the PTeshuvos and R Ch Palagi are sources for
Halacha when they are documenting customs that have no foundation in our
traditional authentic Halachic sources?

I can hear people saying, "Whatever"

there is something not right about the way we define Halacha and even
Minhag.
