This week’s guest is Yehuda Berg, co-director of the Kabbalah Centre, a world wide spiritual organization that teaches principles of Jewish mysticism.

Berg recalls how as a child he,  his brother Michael and his parents Philip and Karen would travel across the country in an old station wagon organizing groups for the study of  Kabbalah which Philip introduced to the US after immersing himself in it during his time in Israel.

Although the center has garnered its share of controversy the study of Kabbalah continues to grow and has been adopted by many notable celebrities including Madonna, Ashton Kutcher and many others.

To learn more about Kabbalah and how a stranger high on drugs taught Yehuda’s father Rabbi Philip Berg an important lesson about acceptance check out the latest episode of MIPtalk.
