My name is Richard Olson and I live in Minnesota. I am a prior student of KabU until my city was attacked and burned in the summer of 2020. More has been learned about who was behind it. I wish to do something positive about this and not promote divisiveness any more.

My name is Lora and I’ve been really struck by what Rav Laitman has said about the connection between the divisiveness among Jews and the rise of anti-Semitism.  I am very interested in learning the Kabbablistic perspective on this.

Raised in Damascus as a child my family knew many Yahud (Jews), in fact I was told that my very own delivery as a baby was by the hands of our family Dr. Shapiro, a Yahudi; And a Dr. that I no longer saw after I turned 10 years old as he and his family were gone. Damascus had a history of thousands of Yahud (Arabic plural of Yahudi) who lived there. Many prominent families well recognized in Damascus today, were originally Yahud (Jews) and converted to Christianity, other to Islam in order to rise into higher positions during the 400 years Ottoman Empire rule of the Middle East which allowed only Muslims to enter higher positions (ended after WWI). In fact They had a whole region near the old eastern gate in Damascus called the ” Sharae Al-Yahud (Yahud Street) which I visited many times as a child. I can even bet “the Ari” himself probably stayed there during his trade visits between Damascus, Safed and Cairo.
Sadly, a few months ago I watched a video on YouTube showing that there are only 15 elderly Yahudi (Jews) living in Damascus and mainly to manage the old Kanisset (Temple). Yes, I would like to know, as to how this happened? From thousands to just 15. Yes, I know that the Nationalist Baath political party that ruled since the 1960s had something to do with it, but how can the Creator allow this to happen to His people? After all they are the ones who are supposed to spread His teaching and words. I am hoping this course will shed some light on this question.

My name is Devorah. I live in Israel. For the last 20 years or so I have been living an observant Jewish life but with reservations, always suspecting that there is something different I should be doing, not necessarily in conflict with Jewish observance but more “enlightened” or more consciously aware of what’s really going on.
Anyway, I never had any formal Jewish education and the description of this course perked my interest and I would like to sign up for this course
