Is It All About Getting Spiritually High?

Our natural human desire to get close to G-d sometimes leads us to pursue methods of religious ecstasy. Yet our human desire to be close to G-d may well be at odds with G-d’s divine desire to be close to us.

Gotta be honest with you, man. I hate pot, and the thumbnail made me assume the worst. But your characters impressed me with the Freudian one related to this week's Parasha. I had so many questions (Is the sin forgetting an oath unintentionally?). Your impression of Freud was spot on. I've seen those original interviews of his. Reply

I enjoy your videos - and yes, I share them with friends and colleagues too. This approach paves a unique way into peoples' minds and make them reflect the content of your message, which they might not have done with a "normal" presentation. Thanks for taking the time and the effort to produce these, rabbi Chighel! Reply

Thank you! As always, love, love your work and creativity.
Still think the idea of a frustrated Levi wanting to sing opera may be a theme.
Would do it if I could, but as a lass, it would not be deemed kosher.
We all appreciate and look forward to (no really) the next segments.
A gala rendition of "Let my People Go" in a blues voice would also not be remiss for Pessach.
Hatzlacha and Brachos,

Wow! Great.
I think Chabbad should also rethink the drunkeness at Simchas Tora, Purim and the local Shabbos shul kiddush where the lack of responsibility includes minor drinking. Reply

Wow! They get better! I'm continuously amazed by your creativity, and you explain the concepts so well, even if I've heard it before, it resonates so much more now!
Keep up the amazing work!
I'm hooked to the spiritual high you give me ;) Reply
