I have only begun to listen to this and can say that it is so clearly articulated. I am so excited to continue listening. Hopefully I can raise questions as I already need some help clarifying certain concepts. Reply

lost Shalom. This lecture and the series on the theory of everything is of the best, besides being a blessing , the problem is that both series of lectures are very hard to find on your site, please can you place these titles on the first page so we can click on them and not have to navigate so many pages to get to them. Thank you, Shalom. Reply
