Video of the event will be published Thursday.
Every human being is important but the loss of the good one is a disaster. My feelings and thoughts are with you. My gratefulness, respect and admiration go to all the good people that give hope and help showing the most human, and a kind of universal way of getting over the pain, loss, hopelessness and despair of the common’s and each individual’s suffering. It is good and helpful to hear (and know) that it is never too late and that the hope is alive.
i can talk abt anything too!
boruch hashem there was a wedding and lchaim, which I am sure many people in the community attended!
im trying to understand a well respected organazation makes a program for the whole community to honor all our brothers and sisters sons and daughters that weve lost this past year and only 200 people show up ?? whats wrong with this community do we have more tragedies to wake every body up
i was not able to get on to see this live. my computer kept asking me to change something. Can we see a l video of this please/
But where was everybody? Seems like one event (in 770) was enough?!
you still on planet earth?
or you a big part of the problem?
when you place the video online – can you place an mp-3 download
people are tired and sad
we already has that urgent kinus in 770 last week and heard divrei hisorerus. why another event?
dealing with tragedies? work hard, educate your children and don’t lose focus. anything else is only in hashem’s hands
there was no reason for the holocaust and there will be no reason for any other kind of death – including these tragic ones of tevel, liberow and azoulay
all we can do if keep on our lives (and donate a little) and hope that the families recover and find a yeshuah
look how few people came.. there where soo many empty chairs…
thanks yerachmeal for sponsoring this event we need more people like u and thank u col for giving us the opportunity for tuning in
the speakers were great thanks to the organizers of this very important lecture, was just wondering didnt see any of our rabbonim ? or principals ? or teachers ? did these tragedies not touch them ???

I think this “Ahavas Yisroel” thing…is getting out of hand! There is Boruch Hashem relative calm lately in Lubavitch. No major Machlokes lately. So I think it’s enough already of “Haking in Tshnik” with this blaming on lack of Ahavas Yisroel….! Enough! Choose a diffrent Mitzva.
who is this rabbi? he is really a great speaker.
how dose someone get in contact him?
watching here with family
yshar koach and cheileich l’oreisa
I’m gonna watch it can’t wait!
thank you col

I really wanted to go out, but too tired to move. I’m sitting and listening, thank you COL
Rabbi Deren is awesome
i loved the line “a loshon horrah expert came to speak in monsey”…
time for all of us to do teshuva
time to invest more in our children’s educaton
Thank you for coordinating this and posting it live.
Firstly, i would like to greatly applaud “yagdil torah” for this wonderful project. But, dear brothers and friends, it is high time that we awaken and realize what is the real thing that we need to do. And that of course is to awaken ourselves to begin fulfilling with the most critically needed mitzvah of ahavas yisroel and achdus yisroel Dear beloved brothers and friends, dont you think it is time, and when, oh when, oh when will we all finally realize that it time to shake heaven and earth and turn this world upside down b’inyan ahavas yisroel and… Read more »
