When my wife Abigayil and I, went to visit the Tziyon ( The Rebbe's grave site) for the first since his passing. Abigayil was trembling and crying for a half hour.
I asked her why she was crying.
She answered me, " I knew the Rebbe was great when we visited him at 770 Eastern parkway. But look now he has passed on and see how many persons are still relying on him for his blessings. I did not realize how truely great he really is. Reply

Life ater death( as the return of the bodies and souls ) A very pretty sight and very deep! Although I confess myself a skeptic by nature ... Completely skeptical in these matters. Sorry for the bluntness. Otherwise I respect deeply the vision of the Rebbe. Moshiach now. Reply

The Rebbe I was raised catholic but feel a very strong connection with the chassidim.
It was the Rebbe's photograph that helped during a very difficult period of my life, and gave me the courage to get out from the situation with my little family intact.
I still have that spark that came from no where, and it is still helping us.
Thank you Reply

The Rebbe I never met the Rebbe but I know of him. I truly wish I could have seen him at least once or maybe more. Thank you for the wonderful video.

Praying with the Rebbe I recall praying with the Rebbe when I was in New York visiting my relatives. He walked into the Shul and we all knew that the prayers were about to begin.

My family mentioned to me about "dollar day" but in my young mind I was thinking that I don't want to take the money because he needed it and maybe he didn't have enough and that his money didn't mean so much as representative of his love.

Later when I had to go back to California and years had passed my relatives told me when I called he was sick. When I was falling asleep he told me spiritually as if he was talking to me and right there that he was going to the Shekina. I called to tell my relatives of my dream I had. I was a little angry though and asked why the suffering? I did not want suffering to be the teacher or rationalize it. I just did not want people to suffer, especially the Rebbe. Once I wrote a letter to 770 right before he became ill telling of my problem with a very abusive man named David who was causing me to suffer. Reply

The Holiness in Israel and our people When people ask me who are my teachers, I always name the so-called "dead" Rebbe's: The Ba'al Shem Tov, the Ari, Rav Yoseph Gikatilla, the RaMChaL, RAV Nachman of Bretzlav, and so on......all of whom I know are transmitting their knowledge and Holiness to those who seek to be closer to Ha-shem and His Wisdom. Certainly CHABAD and all those who are within it's gates, especially her greatest exponents such as REBBE SCHNEERSON, all kabbalists who taught and practised the soul of the soul of TORAH, have helped transform the planet in preparation for the near coming of the MOSHIAH..

Communion -come unify This is beautiful and brings the blessing of the Tzaddikim. I feel such a great warmth .
May it be Hashem's will that this be a great awakening! Let it begin now !
No more hiding the light of Torah of Tzaddikim,
Let us love and seek fellow Jews, with the same fierceness, of those who choose to hate us. Reply

return of the souls - yechidus Thank you so much for this powerfull work.
I have seen it more than 100 times for the last 10 years. Every time a dear one passes away I as a Roman Catholic Church member with jewish ancestors roots feel the need to comfort myself with this gift. Nov 13th 2011 I lost my 79 year old mother and friend and what I felt most of the mourning days is the urge to view this work, Thank you very much , you make a difference in our lives. Love and peace. Reply

To Marsha Many who feel *the* connection (as you put it) turn out to be Jewish. Either way, it is easier to connect to G-d at the Ohel since the righteous never cease praying, and your prayers attach to those of the deceased.

When the first holy temple in Jerusalem was completed, King Solomon prayed (the first prayer in the temple) that G-d should answer the prayers of all peoples of all nations who come there to pray.

Alas, we still lack that temple, but the resting place of the holy Rabbis are also holy and therefore a great place to connect to G-d Almighty, like in the days of King Solomon. Reply

Gratitude Even though I was raised as a Christian, I felt the connection to the Jewish faith.This video is awesome and I will visit Rebbe's Ohel soon!Thank you for making this site available! Reply

Don't be ashame to be a Jew This Rebbe reminded us of the sacred relationship the Jews will always have if they open their hearts to G-d. Thank you Rebbe. So many are inspired by you. Your life is a blessing to me and every Jew. May we all be one because our G-d is one! Reply

Rebbe's Ohel It was an enlightening experience to be part of the visit to the Rebbes Ohel through your video.

I have sent prayers several times for the past few years to be placed at the Ohel but I had never seen it myself. Especially all the Joy, Holyness, Respect and the Presence of G-d Himself giving comfort, through the Rebbe, to all of those who looked for him throughout the years. The testimoninals, the prayers are impressive. Thank you so much for bringing all of them to us.
God Bless you. Shalom! Reply
