We are honored to host internationally renowned speaker and bestselling author Doron Kornbluth, as he explores the Jewish perspective on Life after Life.
Join us on Thursday, February 13, at the Pavilion at the Lake in Atascadero. Lunch will be served at 1:00pm (Bagels, Lox, & Cream Cheese), followed by the lecture at 1:30pm.
In this enlightening talk, Doron will explore the Jewish understanding of the afterlife-what happens to the soul after death and how these beliefs influence our customs around burial. He will also address the growing trend of Jews choosing cremation and the reasons behind it, including concerns over environmentalism, cost, and discomfort with traditional burial practices.
Doron spent years researching this topic, consulting with experts, reading studies, and examining both modern and ancient perspectives. He will provide clarity on why Judaism has long embraced burial as a sacred practice tied to our views on the soul’s journey, while also debunking common myths about cremation.
This lecture offers a unique opportunity to gain meaningful insights and understanding into one of the most important aspects of Jewish tradition.
