In Judaism, it is the\nTzaddik (righteous person) upon whom the entire world depends. And in Tibetan Buddhism, it is the Bodhisattva (one who willingly gives up their own wellbeing for the sake of others.) Studying these wise, incisive teachings brings to light surprising similarities, and illuminates the path for all modern spiritual seekers.\n\nDONATE: bit.ly/1NmpbsP\nLEARNING MATERIALS: https://bit.ly/2RUOxoD\n\nFor more info, please visit: \nwww.facebook.com/valleybeitmidrash/\nwww.facebook.com/temple.chai\ntwitter.com/VBMTorah\nwww.facebook.com/RabbiShmulyYanklowitz/\n\nMusic: \"They Say\" by WowaMusik, a public domain track from the YouTube Audio Library.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/rgXhZfTlnTjybGe2Y8VJvw1nIGugVMdj7wEKsMGYlrk/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI5ODEyLzE2NTEw/Nzg1NjAtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
