How to become Holy?

Rabbi Yaron Reuven

Tips To Be Holy are not just Segulot or old wives' tales, but rather straight from the Holy Torah's Parashat Acharei and Kedoshim. This week's double Torah portion is full of holiness that has more relevance today than ever. Once we learn and apply them, we have the key to opens all of the gates of holiness your soul can desire. We're also going to discuss many other topics coming from a live online audience that's asking questions. Enjoy and be holy.
