Lag B'Omer is the day that Rav Shimon Bar Yochai chose to leave the physical world. Join Rav Berg as he reveals a completely new understanding of why Rav Shimon Bar Yochai chose to leave the world. As the Rav says, Rav Shimon already has removed the negative aspect of physicality. Our job is to remove hatred from within so we can connect with this perfected reality.
The thirty-third day of the Omer is the day when kabbalist Rav Shimon Bar Yochai, the author of the Zohar, left this physical reality. On this day we can connect with the Light that Rav Shimon revealed throughout his life and the Light of the Zohar, which embodies that light of immortality that was lost on Mount Sinai.
