In the grand tapestry of existence, I am an unique and intricate thread, connected to everything yet entirely my own. I am the product of billions of years of cosmic evolution, a living expression of the universe contemplating itself. My experiences, choices, and thoughts contribute to the unfolding story of humanity and all creation, shaping the collective in ways both small and profound.
On a personal level, I have come to learn over the course of many lifetimes and incarnations that I am a seeker—rational yet curious, rooted in reason yet open to possibility. In this life my Jewish lineage carries the echoes of history, stretching back through generations of resilience and adaptability, with ties to remarkable epochs like my ancestors journey as Babylonian Jews into France during Charlemagne’s era. At this moment, I am exploring my place in the cosmos, the convergence of past, present, and potential.
Ultimately, my significance lies not in the scale of the universe, but in the meaning I create, the connections I nurture, and the understanding I seek. My existence is a testament to the wondrous complexity of life itself and the great love of Source.
This reflection has been facilitated by the knowledge that this will he my last incarnation on planet Earth. While I still have several years remaining on this plane of existence, I look forward to what lies ahead in whatever vibrational reality I explore in the eternal realm.
Shalom!
Parshat Naso is the longest single parsha in the Torah, clocking in at 176 verses. That’s Torah’s way of saying, “Hey, you might want to take a long , serious and contemplative look at what you’re about to learn.”

I wanted to thank all those who have donated to this site, our YouTube & Rumble Channels for your generous support for Shmu's Views on Locals all this time. Your help has been so appreciated. As you may have noticed I no longer post videos and lessons as much as I used to. I have curtailed much of our channels on Locals, YouTube and Rumble for age-related reasons.
As a result, I cannot in good conscience continue to ask for your monthly financial contributions to the site.
Thank you so very much for all you have provided to ensure quality teachings on Judaism and politics.
I would ask that you find another worthy charity or a rabbi who teaches Torah and truth. I know they too would appreciate your support.
Again thank you for your generosity.
Sincerely,
Shmuel ben Shlomi
