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.
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!
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
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).
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.
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
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.
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.
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 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.
@@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...
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.
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 ✨♥️✨
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
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 .
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.
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
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
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.
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...
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
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;)
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.
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
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
That's presuming that everyone's family is intact, healthy, productive, large, satisfying, etc. You're sprouting Christian ideas where they're not important.
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.
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"
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?
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.
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.
I dont understand all the discussions about other paths, Walk that path, examine it, proove it to be true or un-true, . The higher states of consiousness, God-consiousness are real,.. Liberty is real,. Self-glory is unreal,.Yews go for their truth, christians go for their version, buddist have their perception, hindoes have a subliem option, muslims go their challenge,.. Just dont bite one-another when on the way home,. at the end we all die anyhow,..............
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.
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.
Mudessir 1 Ey giysisine bürünüp kenara çekilen! 2 Kalk da uyar! 3 Rabbinin yüceliğini duyur! 4 Temizle giysilerini! 5 Uzaklaştır kendinden pisliği! 6 Çok bularak başa kakma yaptığın iyiliği! 7 Ve yalnız Rabbin için dayanıklı kıl benliği! / Saffat 182 Hamt olsun âlemlerin Rabbi Allah'a!... / 181 Selam olsun tüm hak elçilerine!... / 180 Senin Rabbinin, o ululuk ve kudretin Rabbinin şanı yücedir onların verdiği sıfatlardan... / Bakara 143 İşte böyle! Biz sizi, insanlar üstüne tanık olasınız, resul de sizin üstünüze tanık olsun diye, orta yolu izleyen bir ümmet yaptık. Biz, eskiden üzerinde olduğunu kıble haline getirdik ki resule uyanı, ökçesi üstüne gerisin geri dönenden ayıralım. Bu, Allah'ın kılavuzluk ettikleri dışındakilere gerçekten zor gelecektir. Ama Allah imanınızı işe yaramaz hale getirmeyecektir. Şu da bir gerçek ki, Allah öncelikle insanlara karşı çok acıyıcı, çok merhametlidir. 144 Biz senin, yüzünün habire göğe doğru çevrildiğini elbette görüyoruz. Hoşlanacağın bir kıbleye seni elbette döndüreceğiz. Artık yüzünü Mescid-i Haram yönüne çevir. Nerede olsanız yüzünüzü Mescid-i Haram yönüne döndürün. Kendilerine kitap verilenler, onun, Rablerinden bir gerçek olduğunu çok iyi bilirler. Allah onların yapıp ettiklerinden habersiz değildir. 145 Yemin olsun, Ehlikitap'a sen her türlü mucizeyi getirsen de onlar senin kıblene uymazlar; sen de onların kıblesine uymayacaksın. Onlar birbirlerinin kıblesine de uymazlar. Eğer sen, ilimden nasibin sana geldikten sonra onların boş ve iğreti arzularına uyarsan, işte o zaman kesinlikle zalimlerden olursun. 146 Kendilerine kitap verdiklerimiz, onu öz oğullarını tanıdıkları gibi tanırlar. Bununla birlikte, içlerinden bir zümre, bilip durdukları halde gerçeği gizliyorlar. 147 Gerçek, Rabbinden gelir. O halde sakın kuşkuya düşenlerden olma! 148 Herkesin bir yönü vardır, ona döner. O halde hayırlarda yarışın. Nerede olursanız olun Allah sizi bir araya getirecektir. Allah herşeye güç yetirendir. / Fetih 27 Yemin olsun ki Allah, resulüne o rüyayı hak olarak doğru çıkarmıştır. Allah dilerse, başlarınızı tıraş etmiş, saçlarınızı kısaltmış olarak güven içinde, korku duymadan Mescid-i Haram'a mutlaka gireceksiniz. Allah, sizin bilmediğinizi bildi de bundan önce size yakın bir fetih nasip etti. 28 O, resulünü hidayet ve hak dinle gönderdi ki, o dini tüm dinlere üstün kılsın. Tanık olarak Allah yeter! 29 Muhammed, Allah'ın resulüdür. Onunla beraber olanlar, inkârcılara karşı çok çetin, kendi aralarında çok sevecendirler/çok merhametlidirler. Sen onları rükû eder, secdeye kapanır halde görürsün. Allah'tan bir lütuf ve hoşnutluk ister dururlar. Görünüşlerine gelince, yüzlerinde secde eseri/izi vardır. Bu onların Tevrat'taki nitelikleri. İncil'deki nitelikleri de şöyle: Tıpkı bir ekin ki filizini çıkarmış, o filizi kuvvetlendirmiş. Filiz kalınlaştı, gövdesi üzerine dikildi. Ziraatçıları da imrendirir/hayran bırakır bu ekin. Allah böyle yapar ki, onlar sayesinde, inkâr edenleri öfkelendirsin. Allah onlardan iman edip barışa/hayra yönelik işlen yapanlara bir bağışlanma ve büyük bir ödül vaat etmiştir. / Araf 8 O gün, iyi ve kötüyü ayıran ölçü haktır. Artık kimin ölçülüp tartılışacak şeyleri ağır basarsa kurtuluşa erenler onlar olacaktır. 9 Ölçülüp tartılacak şeyleri hafif kalanlara gelince, işte onlar, ayetlerimize karşı zalimce davranışlar sergilemiş oldukları için, öz benliklerini hüsrana itmiş olacaklar. 10 Yemin olsun, sizi yeryüzünde yerleştirdik ve sizin için orada, geçiminize yarayacak nimet ve imkânlara vücut verdik. Ne de az şükrediyorsunuz! 11 Andolsun ki sizi yarattık, sonra sizi biçimlendirdik, sonra da meleklere "Âdem'e secde edin" dedik. Onlar da secde ettiler. Ama İblis etmedi, secde edenlerden olmadı o. 12 Allah buyurdu: "Sana emrettiğimde secde etmeni engelleyen neydi?" İblis dedi: "Ben ondan hayırlıyım. Beni ateşten yarattın, onu çamurdan yarattın." 13 Buyurdu: "O halde in oradan. Senin haddine mi orada büyüklük taslamak! Hadi çık! Sen alçaklardansın." 14 Dedi: "İnsanların diriltileceği güne kadar bana süre ver." 15 Buyurdu: "Süre verilenlerdensin." / Tevbe 32 Allah'ın nurunu ağızlarıyla söndürmek istiyorlar. Allah ise kâfirler hoşlanmasa da nurunu tamamlamaktan başka bir şey istemiyor. / 36 Gökleri ve yeri yarattığı gündeki yazısına göre, Allah katında ayların sayısı on ikidir. Bunlardan dördü haram aylardır. Eskimez din işte budur. Artık o aylar içinde benliklerinize zulmetmeyin. Müşrikler sizinle nasıl topyekün savaşıyorlarsa siz de onlarla topyekün savaşın. Şunu bilin ki, Allah, takva sahipleriyle beraberdir.
