I live in LA and we are Chabadnics and both of us work in psychology. I really appreciate the deep healing conversation that was able to happen here.
Thank you for this Kabbalah discussion. I loved the illustration of those walking westbound on a ship going east. The pulling force of the Creator's love is irresistible.
This man is a Genius. Explains complicated ideas in easy to understand ways.
He might have a few misconceptions of Christianity(and Superheroes LOL) but his messages and interpretations bring us all into a grand understanding.
Another great talk! Thank you Rabbi Manis Friedman and Dr. Mona. Shabbat Shalom.💙
This message from the Rabbi reminds me of Stevie Wonder's Song "For Once in My Life" For once in my life I have someone who needs me ... I'm not alone anymore ...I'm certain that song was Divinely Inspired!
full of wisdom. thank you, Rabbi!!
I don't know why, but when the rabbi said, the soul remain on it's personality and not became an angel, i really feel happy
Rabbi Manis is an extremely gifted Storyteller. He could tell us the Tale of the Toothbrush that got lost & found itself in the trashcan, & how it fell on the floor of the Bathroom when the trashcan was emptied, and then got placed in bleach to eventually return to use a a kitchen tool for getting bits of burned food out of saucepan lids.
Much gratitude from Spain
He's good in tale telling tales 😁
Thank you Rabi, I enjoyed this conversation and the profound understanding that you share with the world. Shalom.🙏
THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY EVER TO BE TOLD!! GIVE THANKS AND PRAISE AND GLORY TO YEHOVA AMEN 🙏 🙌 ✨️ ❤️ 👏 💕
Thank you very much Rabbi Friedman.
Love this talk, it is “so LA” - we’re chabadniks in the valley. Peace y’all!
💫🙏Keep doing all that you do🙏💫
Wow this struck a nerve for me. Wonderful!
Maybe I should tell something about my story.. I think I died when I was about 4, but begged and pleaded with God to let me stay. I felt that I had much to accomplish for His glory. And I was allowed back.. OR if not allowed back, I was allowed to live out a life as though it were my human life, but it’s just like a movie that feels real, nothing more. ..I think.
Glad you mentioned that, it''s a great topic. I follow Rabbi Friedman for some years now, I am so grateful to him for all of his teachings, became a real teacher for me, a Rabbi. I also am not Jewish but I suspect my ancestry is, from my father's name, Iosef, and also my maternal grandmother'story, but I have no proofs and no means to find out. Coming back to your story, I know too I've been dead, at least once, and the world is full of near death experience stories that even the doctors begin to take in consideration with no actual scientific explication, they just can't dismiss it. I would like so much to hear Rabbi Friedman speak about it. Thank you for your comments and may everyone here be blessed ❤
Yes! This is why causing another's death or even your own; is not forgivable. Because the soul leaves (that's the definition of death). And you can become aware of the fact that you are dead now and again. The body serves the soul. The spirit serves the soul. Only the redeemer is granted soul after soul when confronted by death during his incarnation. But he is beyond death because he is the reason of all life (regardless if he knows who he is or not).
My great grandparents were Jewish - fact. My great grandmother taught my mom about being Jewish, kosher food, thinking, etc. She taught me. However, I can't find any record of my great grandparents to be able to make aliyah, but I KNEW them and even have a photo of 5 generations including my great grandmother! I was never given the opportunity to attend yeshiva, or weekly shabbat. For some reason they kept our Jewishness a secret. Why do Jewish people not want to help me reconnect with my Jewish ancestry?
We Jews don't get involved with people who haven't had their lineage verified by rabbinical, or other valid, sources. Even though your great grandmother, Jews are matrilineal, might have been a Jew, you may need to go through the conversion process. I'm not a rabbinic authority to say definitively. If it's important to you, you'll pursue it further.
If you want to know about why Jews are secretive during those years, you can look up videos about the Holocaust, about Jews in Russia and other countries where we were abused, forced to convert or die, etc. You have a lot of history to catch up on.
Girls going to yeshiva is a whole conversation. Shabbat, attending services, being shomer shabbos, are all choices you can make as an adult. As is which shul to join, learning Hebrew, etc.
You may decide not to convert though to be engaged with our virtual community. It's all up to you.
Best wishes in your journey of discovery.
Thank you. Very on time for me; מ, "member" literally from 13-40. Well, I'm still 39 for another two months but now have gained more understanding as to why this season has shifted the way it has been.
Yahueh keep you all
Yahueh be gracious to you all
Yahueh give you all shalom
No non-Jewish stuff please. Not appreciated here. Plenty of other places to share it. We're not converting. Not convincing us. Wasted effort.
@@nomorecensoringme
You are being rude.
I am quite sure that is not “Jewish-Stuff.”
i hope you know this channel is very helpful and knowledgeable 🙏🔯
I found out that my moms moms moms mom, has a Jewish maiden name. So I might actually be Jewish by blood, even though I wasn’t raised in it. This makes alot of sense to me.
Jewish is only a religion. Not a race.
@@teegreenburg some Jewish people disagree with that.
@@teegreenburg the term jew origin comes from the tribe of Judah
Judaism is a entho-religion
Its a religion and a people
@@teegreenburg Judaism is NOT A RELIGION!! Ask Rabbi Friedman himself!! The Jewish Nation is a people…you don’t have to keep the Torah or the laws to be Jewish!!! Jews aren’t baptized, we’re born into it…and can’t convert out of it…but a Jew can practice whatever they want…doesn’t change the fact that they’re Jewish!!!
@@Tracey4therepublic yeah but if they practice whatever they will come back in reincarnation and complete their mitzvots. But their not practicing Judaism is also part of the divine plan as everything comes from HaShem. There is a purpose for not being religious too, every Jewish soul is purposeful in every way it is existing...
Had a Death experience in 1991. Of which I begged God to not send me back here; and He said loud and clear 3xs, “you have to go back, your not done yet.” Now as many years have passed I understand why he sent me back her to complete the work he needed me to accomplish here on Earth.
I greatly respect Rabbi Friedman, but Christianity does not teach humans die and become angels. I would love if he expanded on why he said that. I learn so much and appreciate his wisdom.
🙏🙏🙏 thanks for amazing teaching ❤️ like always!!!!
Where come 4 different world
That was amazing. Thank you Rabbi.
Christmas eve, I'm here listening to this wonderful, brilliant, wise conversation. It's the best present, ever. Thank you, rabbi and lady, and those present whether speaking here or silent.
I love this…”less me…more God” perfect 👍
Who would believe you may have been why it really wasn’t kept secret, just didn’t talk about it. I’m glad it is finally been brought to light. Love you Rabbi ✨♥️✨
Be nice to hear what the Rabbi has to say.
I SO say Thank You!
Love your tevhing, it’s reajjy G~ D’Souza teaching use through you ❤️✨
I experience derealization because of my PTSD but I tend to see it as a mystical experience. I mean, realization that reality isn't real, that we are a soul trapped in the material world and are built for a higher purpose beyond the physical world. I seek to understand why I feel this way.
I mean, I call it a PTSD symptom to sound normal and not nuts but I also felt the same way as a kid? Before the trauma.
Sweet. So sweet. Thank you.
Good afternoon RABBI!
Thank You,Sir.
I love it and everything about . Good spiritual dimensions and civinity.
so deep and wonderful!!
So many great teachings ! God Bless
Amazing ♾🙏🏻
Thank you .Thank you. Thank you.
Was so much secrecy in my family, it was like in the war even I was born after in 46 . Because of that religions were for me something that makes your mind slave to whaterver they want to .I learn by observing all by myself and condacting my life by it
Hi thank you sis Margie Iam leaning along from you all to
Thank you Rabbi for sharing your Wisdom and Great sense of Humor! You inspire me to keep Shabbat and do mitvot it fills my soul with meaning and Joy!
🙏🏼🪶🤍💙🤍 Rabbi Manis Freidman🙏🏼
Something (new idea to me) really caught my attention in the beginning: that Kabbala has been opened up because it's towards the end of history. At first I was thinking that we certainly aren't more worthy or advanced now than we were before it was open, so why? Was it right to do that? Then you said It's like when your mother starts to tell you things only when she's old and it's getting close to the end. Ready or not, here it comes. Then it made more sense to me, especially since my own mother is in that stage now, sometimes clearing up old mysteries or telling funny stories, sometimes repeating things she's said many times, and sometimes telling me things I'd rather not hear.
Yeh, Dr Mona also keeps saying ''Christianity'' when what they both are describing is Roman Catholicism. For, most non-Catholic Christian streams are technically on the same page with regards to waking up and being hands-on lights of the world, and healing and helping make Earth His dwelling.
Emphasized in non-Catholic streams is Christ's humility and sense of servitude being a living example of how to serve in a manner in which God can be with us. In both the sense of God's presence Grace and power within our works in service, and that we are playing our part in the work we rest and celebrate in the Great Banquet! A real work, for real lives to take part and share in.
We have more ground to stand together upon here guys! Let's alll wake up perhaps?
MAnis view of ressurection is exactly the same as non-catholic viewpoints. However, Manis has MORE of a solid grasp upon it in his expression of it. Perhaps knowing the soul (nephesh?) is from/of God, and is the source of our body's more coomendable drives, especially when we get our bodies tuned up into 'obeying' our soul's gift of being in service to God.
ity's ALL there, at least in Word, in non-cathoilic teaching, and in fact in certain catholic streams like an American catholic Franciscan order of monasteries/grounds/land where they marry, have families, and obey those procreative commands, and also believe much of exactly what Manis conveys. So we have many little pockets of souls to reach out to here than to be seperate from.
OH! Also, apart from possible fairy tales a catholic grandmother may misguidedly tell kids, Manis and Dr Mona need learn that almost all maturer forms of non-catholic forms do not teach that we die and go to heaven as angels. That's just silly talk.
The central heart of non-catholic Christianity is exactly on the same page as the above talk, even though many only know it in their heads, but not fully worked out into their lives yet. But, come on. Give'm a break like a little brother who's only been around for 2000yrs. We have more to connect than to not connect, and solid grounds to appreciate the differences as we work and serve together, as working and serving are a part and parcel and right of passage in common underlaying it all.
I once saw a film , the title of the film was : TORA ! TORA ! TORA ! .I thought the film would be about yeshiva students but it turned out to be about the japanese attack on Pearl Harbour .
We are here to gain experience
For me other life in other body apear in my dreams so powerful I can't ignore seeing even a picture that I new is me ,but was not the one I am in this body in present
Thank you
"God doesn't make a plan, until you choose"!
thank you
What's the best version of the Kabbalah to study? Amazon has too many versions, and they all seem to be abridged, non-original versions. Where can I find the original version of the Kabbalah in English?
Look at rabbi Kaplan book in English. The question is what are you trying to get out of it. To serve Hashem you first need to know what he wants.. you learn that from halacha. Get a good Jewish laws book based on your tradition Ashkenazi or Sephardic. There is a great English series of halacha book from harav ovadia called "yalkut Yosef"
@@lovemytechy Thank you!
Diving into Kabbalah requires a firm grasp of Judaism. The Torah, the Talmud, the Ethics of the Fathers, even the Tanya. If you want to get a healthy smattering of Kabbalah I'd suggest G-d is a Verb, by Rabbi David Cooper. It's intense, hard for some to get through, which is Kabbalah, so it may take more than one reading.
May you find what you're searching for.
I had a Kabbalah teacher. I'm not Jewish but I had a Rabbi who I appreciate, teach me well. After you climb the tree of life and get through each sepharot. Look up the Kabbalah "tree of life", watch some teachers show you and make it easier. If you can find a rabbi , that's better. It isn't easy. But it's not hard like people say. Knowing the Torah, Talmud are good , but get the Zohar too. It could take months to get it down but it will help you have a better life and shows you that magic is very real. That's the "light" side of Kabbalah. The other end which is black magic and many people can't finish because it isn't easy and you have to know what you're doing; is called the Qlippoth. Or tree of death. Same thing , but it's the dark side but it is worth knowing. The Zohar will help .
Rabbi how many times have I've been back to my body is this possible to know and if I was to die tomorrow how long will it be before I was to come back again? I lost family members and if they have come back already is it possible to see them in person if I'm alive or am I only in my first body? And how long does it take to come back to my second body self?
Just found and watched your video. I found it interesting. I have written books that I need to market and sell. Do you still teach this mastermind class
My name is Catherine, I am listening.
You made my night reach in anyway by that discution
Bring the truth of Torah
Thank you for the teachings of the Bible. I would like to ask you: Do you think that human life was created? and the second question: IS the life of God the same as the life of man? Thanks.
Baruk Hashem, Baruk Hashem, Baruk Hashem...
At 30 : 25 he is saying Christians don't have the answer for : why we are here ( in our life). We have. I am a Christian.
So, he is mistaken in this question.
I listen him for a while. I learn a lot from
him. I like him. I studied a little the 5 major world religions. I am getting closer back to my original Roman Chatolic religion. But the second most important spirituality and religion , as a guide liht comes from the Kaballah ( sorry about the spelling mistakes.)
Tora and Talmud.
The other 4 world religions are far not that satisfactory , as I see so far.
So, even just the word : Judeo- Christianism is a very significant term for me.
Regards,
József
10:20THANK YOU.
As I felt God is everywhere, I avoid churches where I saw people who lie and are there to talk about others not for God
I like him a lot. An other thought of his also not correct when he mention, in heaven we will be like angels all look like the same. We Christians beleive we
will keep our individual personal characteristics. That's comforting most of us.
I like him when he teaching us about his " field" -- the Jewish beleives. That's in
he is an expert ( although I can't judge that). I guess is not very fortunate when he has a quick thouth of the Christian faith,--- if that is not correct.
Of course he is extremely smart and wise. Therfore, it's a little surprising to hear little " mistakes" from such a nice, and sympathetic man like him.
I will continue listening him. He is a treasure for " all" of us.
You are vulnerable than you are caring
I so agree with you .... but because we don't know all we accepted and will see ....if I was ask I would not agree with the need to sleep and eat or get ill etc...
She is not quite there yet. But most of us aren't. 🙏
All I know for sure is my juish blood came from great parents who I never met because they lived in Austria and I was born in romania
Dear Rabbi, one more question: You are saying that G’d is waiting first for us to make a move, make a decision, and then he is making a plan according to our move. If this is the case then it means that G’d doesn't know what will be in the future given that he has to wait first for our move. Consequently, it means that G’D doesn’t know everything?
We are taught Hashem knows the end of a thing before it’s beginning. That is great wisdom surely He can discern what the future will be. The prophet’s spoke of the future - what Hashem told them to speak.
When He who created time lives in an eternity outside of time as well as in it. He can see the total outcome. Waiting for us to move to make a move - or a plan is including us in that plan. He knows every possibility of every decision because He created wisdom in the first place. So why would He not have the wisdom to see what lies ahead? Just read the book of Proverbs - Hashem is the giver of wisdom. This not from the Rabbi but I hope you like it. From a Chassidic woman in a Chassidic community for many, many years. B’H
@@csflower Thank you very much!!!
God know everything, yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever! God is God!!!!!
Your logic is illogical. It's also not G-dly. You take one sentence and wrap a principal around it. Listen further.
how and which way we can serve Lord
Do kindnesses. Bring light not darkness (negativity). Be joyful. Be grateful. Do for others instead of thinking of yourself.
I do not agree about this Christianity triangle concept at all- and Rabi Minis is right !!! Generally everybody can have opinions- and Rabi explanation is great ... I'm really enjoying your talk..thanks
What happens to the people who have been cremated?
To me that really contradicts what you just said about being content with who you are and then if we have other lives That's saying we're not content
You see I was told do make sure I do not lie,but I was explain why , and that is the different between be thought by God instead of religion
No audio
I could not hear anything that was being said.
Hahaha really?
Why are we here ?
It's not good to be alone....... FAMILY
That's presuming that everyone's family is intact, healthy, productive, large, satisfying, etc. You're sprouting Christian ideas where they're not important.
Care
5:01 PLEASE ACCEPT MY HUMBLE APOLOGIES. YOU ARE A GOOD AND WISE RABBI; WHO HAS UNWITTINGLY TAUGHT THIS SERVANT WELL, MAYBE A LITTLE TOO WELL. I'M GOING TO FOCUS A LITTLE MORE ON TORAH, AND THE FIDDLE. I JUST WANT TO SAY, THIS IS HONESTLY THE FIRST TIME I HAVE ACTUALLY EVER HEARD A JEWISH PERSON SAY THIS; BESIDES YOURS TRULY..AND ONE OTHER GUY;)
Your burning heart
What does the Torah say about Aliens ? How do Dinosaurs play apart in Earth's Evolution ? Too many unanswered questions .
G-d didn't share any of that in the Torah since it wasn't relevant to what He wanted from us.
Maybe at the end of your days you'll find out. Maybe not. Maybe it won't be so important then. Maybe it will.
Can a cremated body recompose?
My man
הִגִּיד לְךָ אָדָם, מַה-טּוֹב; וּמָה-יְהוָה דּוֹרֵשׁ מִמְּךָ, כִּי אִם-עֲשׂוֹת מִשְׁפָּט וְאַהֲבַת חֶסֶד, וְהַצְנֵעַ לֶכֶת, עִם-אֱלֹהֶיךָ. You've been told what's good, Man. And what does the Lord require of you but only to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God. From Micah. You can do more, but if you manage this through your life, you're doing well.
Wow no sound 😕 😳 😐 😑
Tea and coffee story sounds like the cain and able story of their gifts to god one of harvest one of a lamb
If you reading siddur with love no such a thing punishment if you reading with fear then of course you see each words punishment.
How will there be room in the world when the dead are risen?
That is up to G-d to work out. Don't trust Him?
Have fun talking catholic the great my great grandmother blood line and we r related to the kaiser I'm name after him
We’re humans with souls but modern life and trans humanism wants to abolish that
They have not yet mentioned the concept of “ Messianic Judaism ✡️
Why should RMF?
The coming of Moshiach isn't 'Messianic Judaism'. It's Judaism.
what for ?
Ooh calling Brahma Abraham, spicy take... o_o But what if you're right though, that'd be amazing. And it's not impossible. Sea trade between the ancient Near East and India was common, and we see influence of ancient Greek sculpture in India very early in history, or what we have are (in the Greek archaic period) Greek statues that look just like ones found in a different civilization in India, NOT the Hellenistic stuff in other words long before Alexander the Great. There was a lot of trade between the civilizations and a lot of exchange of ideas. Whether India or Israel first conceived of what's now God is a tricky matter for historians to pin down, but much like the archaic Greek sculptures, we know there was some culture borrowing from another, because of striking similarities.
Does this only apply to Jews? What about gentiles?
Women don’t need to do all 613…each Mitzvot is special and intentional for man and woman.🦋
The g-d of love and creation can quote” only generate hate “, yo u wrong reword that with all my respect .
Teacher,
You are what is called a wize man.
I would like to speak to you.
It's about when I died.
I have looked for email numbers for you. I am not able to find any.
The pyramids baalbek etc? Built before the flood.
The civilization Noah lived in.
Sound travels..lol.
God's blessings to you and yours.
Christianity teaches that we are here to worship God. Bit confused about this teaching!!!
There is more than Jewish people experiencing these roads. I have too.
Do people talk about what they know or what others know and experience? Rabbi Friedman is sharing us, Judaism. What people do with the teaching, how they relate to it, or not, is up to them.
I can't believe I listened to 3 hrs of jibberish! AND that it seemed like 1/2 hr? 🤪It all makes sense because the Jews have had the longest amt of time to understand these teachings.... they have been thinking about it for the longest time.... since it was all written down.... and let's face it.... it does involve them mostly.
19:49PROTECT BUT NOT REWARD.
Thank you for the wheel part you provided with to One big car called the human race. I appreciate Jew’s accumulation of mitzvoth of over 3000 years, in hard time. Connection with the Lord( soul part), prayer( subconscious part), and good deeds(conscious part) support this world. Please be One again and please Him. -from a non Jew who is tinier than a black mole on a face of an ant.
Noone is Tony, especially a non-Jew. You have an incredible mission to bei.g earth to heaven. Your part is essential for G-d's Eternal Plan to be effected. We need you to do your part.
@@nomorecensoringme Thank you! Last night I learned on youtube that to say “ G-d bless you “ to someone is to hope the one would reach the highest potential and attain real him or her, by connecting with Him. So, G-d bless you. Please be strong, do good and pursue peace, like David says! Happy New Year ! - from Japan.
