</font>R. A. Miller would always dismiss all things like this with a wave
of his hand. I once asked him why, and he replied,

And he was correct, because we see people turning Yahadus into a
bunch of hocus pocus. It does not lead to more Avodas HaShem
in general. It leads more often than not to a distortion of
Yahadus. Best not to include any of these sorts of things in one's
practice of Judaism.<br><br>
