comment Is one a heretic if he does not believe in Kabbalah?
So it seems my memory deceived me a bit. The comparison to a tinok sh'nishbah was by one of the commentators who was interpreting this article rationalistjudaism.com/2010/10/rav-ovadiah-yosef-on-zohar.html - but it does appear that Rav Ovadiah does not consent to their understanding of the Zohar as problematic

I recall once seeing Rav Ovadiah explain that these teimanim were like tinok sh'nishbah. I don't think you can generalize from this unique example

comment How can I curb my sexual desire?
there are ample kabbalistic and hasidic sources for this idea. Controlling one's desire for food can have a direct affect on the ability to control one's sexual desires. +1
