Thank you Rabbi, I was looking forward to listening to your meditation on the Shmah. I ritght away thought,while listening, what a beautiful gift, I want to share it with my friends. I have felt this about so much in my learning, and see that some people just don;t "get it". They don't think; why am I here, or they say I am not spiritual. How can I share and reach people, when there seems to be so many that are on automatic. I hope you can help me, because I want to share His light. And He has made me with such a seeking spirit to get close to Him. Thank you again.

My heart is so grateful to have found your teachings. They are helping me tremendously in drawing closer to our Almighty Creator. Deeper into the Word of G-d. Stand, Look up, reach up, behold, salvation is near, and comes from the ONE who has given you life !

Thank you so very much for sharing your wisdom and teachings!

Totally wonderful. All this embodies the essence of our Jewish lives - these are the best and meaningful meditations I have encountered. Takes me into another world - or maybe, only that which is really important! I use these every day.

Thank you
Although I usually like silence, I enjoyed your effects. Since your voice is very soothing and inspiring, I can understand that in busy America, the effects may help some people focus. Keep up the great work!

It seemed many people were offput by the music. Don't be afraid to go to R. Freeman's other prayer explanations. He did listen and the newer ones don't have the distracting music. Hey, anybody can make mistakes. Give R. Freeman a huge round of applause for listening skills, and astute decision making. I didn't notice how bad the music was until i went to the other prayers.
Dear Rabbi- can't you get one of your computer friends to take the music out of those clips ? Looks like you are going to have readers going to your site for years to come. Might as well end future disappointment. Just a thought.
Good Shabbos all !
