Thank you Rabbi. Your lecture was a joy to listen to and very inspiring.

Thank you very much Rabbi. I enjoyed listening to you. I am on the path to becoming more observant in my Kosher observance.

I listened to this clip, just curious about what kosher really is...I now have a whole new perspective and respect. I am thankful for the understanding. It's really a beautiful tradition on so many levels. I had no idea ! I have to say the Rabbi's stories were very touching, and clearly drove home the importance of food and family, and self control for the love of God and for the good of us all. It was just excellent ! He inspired me to take a look at my own life, and habits. Thank you, Rabbi, you are a joy to listen to, Just awesome !!

Those of us Jews who read the essence of the word Kosher, know it to mean that it is critical to consider how animals suffer and are treated in life, and death. Jewish law obligates us to treat animals with mercy and to never cause them unnecessary pain...
All slaughterhouses (and you should visit and watch with your own eyes...if you can) are nothing more than concentration camps for sentient beings that humans force to die prematurely, as do humans who still eat meat and dairy.
It pains me that my family and friends who claim to be kosher, have no idea what that word means, what it is supposed to mean, and how little it really does mean today.
The best kosher diet is a vegan diet.
Animals are not liking being massacred years before their G-d given life span would afford them. And if you think they don't suffer horribly, you're in denial.

Do kindly bear in mind that some animal diseases such as BSE (mad cow) do not show any visible/external defects with the organs (depending on the age of animal when is slaughtered), but rather independent laboratory testing is required. The same applies to produce i.e.fruit, veg etc.such as GMO/transgenic/genomic.

If I am not mistaken, I believe the Rabbi stated that "Kosher" refers to the way food is prepared, not whether it is necessarily healthy for you. A lot of the reasons it is good to make sure food purchased is kosher does have a lot to do with health reasons; ie, shellfish (it would be pretty gross to drink cola from a factory that just processed 'clam juice').
|
Thank you for the interesting instruction. I could not fully grasp why Coca Cola was mentioned, particularly since it is extremely harmful for the body which I am sorry to bring your attention to. Did you know if you soak copper in this drink, it clean it? It has harmful ingredients.

Very, very good lecture. A lecture that everyone should listen to. Kosher is special and this talk illuminates the vital concepts, feelings, and spirituality.
|
What a gorgeous lesson on Kosher! The most thoughtful I've ever heard. (And I've heard several.)
Well written, well planned. It truly appealed not just to the mind, but to the heart. Bravo, Rabbi Shlomo!
Once it's archived, I'm forwarding it to my family members, who dot the entire city of L.A.!
