Weekend Meditation: Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach "Lord Get Me High"

Back in the ‘60’s, when I was a radical/hippie college student at a Midwestern university , I had the absolute joy and pleasure to encounter an Hasidic Jewish Rabbi/singer named Shlomo Carlebach.

The dean of the Liberal Arts College was Jewish and he knew Rabbi Carlebach. So one day, this remarkable, joyful man came to our campus. He just sat down and started playing his guitar and singing and before you knew it every flower child within ear reach was sitting at his feet.

I’ve never forgotten Rabbi Carlebach and the wonderful love that emanated from his being, so I was so happy to find this wonderful video.

I hope you feel the bliss on this snowy (once again) weekend. Peace and may the Lord get you high.

Hillary On Mumbai

“My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and families touched by these acts of terror in Mumbai. We still do not know the full measure of this tragedy, which has taken the lives of Indian citizens, Americans, and others who had traveled to Mumbai from around the world. Two New Yorkers, Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg and Rivka Holtzberg of Brooklyn are among those who have died, leaving behind their young son. The young couple had traveled from Brooklyn to manage a small Chabad house, welcoming Jews from India and elsewhere to learn, pray, and serve the community. There could be no sharper a reminder, nor a more poignant call to action, than the brutal and heinous violence visited upon the Nariman House and the Holtzberg family, living and working in Mumbai on a mission of peace, scholarship, and spiritual guidance. As those responsible are brought to justice, as we aid and support the victims and their families, as we work to defeat radical extremism and the terror it spawns, let us find strength in knowing that in the face of those who seek to take lives, there are those who seek to give hope and comfort. In the face of those who wish only to destroy, there are individuals like Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg and Rivka Holtzberg who travel great distances far from their homes to build a better world.
