Jewish yoga- a tribute to Indian tradition

That's more of a social thing.
worse really.
With Jews outside of israel, generally speaking, if an event is a jewish event, and you don't see -anybody- with black hats and beards, then it's not people serious about judaism.
Even though it says "rabbi". They aren't rabbis. There are orthodox jews who believe in G-d and his revelation to Moses. And other sects who just don't.
There are many jews that feel uncomfortable leaving judaism completely, so they go to one of these fake synagogues with a fake rabbi.. and they feel they have somehow honoured their ancestors..
Notice that they have women rabbis. That is something these sects do, so it's a giveaway.
There is such a thing as jewish meditation.. The practice is largely lost, there may be some seriously religious jews that try to rediscover it.. But this is not an instance of it.
Those "rabbis" that do believe in G-d, don't believe in a personal G-d(a foundation of judaism from throughout the bible). And I guarantee that if you asked them if Judaism is True , they would be hardprssed to give an answer. If you asked them if Islam is False, they would not agree. They are relativists.. and not intellectually honest.
These people are completely ignorant.
Rabbi Kahane once said regarding these so-called rabbis.. That their only blessing is that their congregation is more ignorant than they are.
Look at this, it's hilarious.. We had said earlier that the Om chant was something that should be changed for jewish yoga . e.g. to no chant or something jewish.
"
"Classes are conducted by Amy Reed. In most of her classes, students chant "Om" three times in yogic position. A bit earlier, Judi Wisch, a religious educator who was leading the group along with Reed, had opened the session: "Welcome to yoga with a Jewish twist.""
"
The jewish twist is that jews are doing it.
For these people, being jewish is eating bagels.
There's a jewish museum in Camden Town, and jews are interviewed what it measn to be jewish.. The museum is totally reform..
These sects are reform/conservative/reconstructionist/liberal.. They have similar names, each one more liberal than the next. All sharing the fact that they don't believe in G-d and the Torah.
These contrast with Orthodox jews.. Orthodox judaism is real judaism.
Now, jews can follow religions other than orthodox judaism, then they are bad jews. It doesn't mean they are not jewish.. But it's nothing..
Rabbi Kahane wrote a book called "Why be jewish". And he talks about the problems this creates.. In an interview with Lenny Brenner, he asked him. "Why be jewish?". Kahane kills people with that argument. . showing them that the only reason is if you believe in judaism. Brenner says he doesn't consider himself jewish.. So that ended that one. Kahane said he's not relevant! Most jews consider themselves jewish even when they don't believe in what makes them jewish. I think Kahane would then use that to push those jews to make the decision, and they'd usually go from their nothing, to judaism..
