Tehillim 55 and Baseless Fear

Tehillim 55 and Baseless Fear

“Libi yachil bekirbi, ve'imot mavet naflu alai” — (My heart trembles within me; mortal terror has fallen upon me). In Judaism, there is a principle: if a person is suddenly overcome by baseless fear, it means that at that moment they are being judged in Heaven. (Yalkut Eliezer) In such a case, one should recite any chapter of Tehillim or the prayer “Shema.” (Likutey Etzot) A very powerful segula from Rabbi Chaim of Volozhin is “Ein Od Milvado.” (Based on materials from “Sila Tehilim”)
