this video hit the spot and even made me cry a little....how true were the words!

i saw this video last year and it still means everything.. wow

Oh my gosh I'll never think of Kol Nidrei the same way!! (Bli neder, of course :)) THANK YOU!

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE- What a fabulous metaphor for Yom Kippur & Kol Nidrei!!!!!!!!!!! Moved me to tears- & I am sharing it with loved ones far & near---

Thank you,so inspiring! I don't want to miss that train again.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !

I didn't quite get it. I always loved Rosh Hashanna, but rather dreaded Yom Kippur. That was because I didn't quite understand, despite all of the study. Thanks!

Beautiful! Thank you so much! This was a very inspiring film, full of wisdom. Keep up the good work!!

Keep them coming!!

Oh my gosh ! That brought tears to my eyes. I will NEVER look at Yom Kippur the same. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for enlightening me!

spread the word!! we need more messages like this.great delivery.

I needed this. And I have a friend who desperately needs this. Thank you with all my heart.

Saw it last year, saw it this year, got the chills this year. Moves me each time.

Mr. Harary, you have an unbelievable way with metaphors. Just right every time. Your movie messages crack through to something very deep. Thank you for this. Really incredible!

Thank you for adding a deeper meaning to kol nidrei! Beautiful idea!

WOW THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!

Fantastic piece!

I had to come to terms with a terrible mistake I made this year. Various things, especially the blemishless character of the one I ended up hurting, brought about a crisis of conscience. This video became the tipping point. I managed to drop my bags...just. But I'm not sure I would have without seeing this. Thank you so much.

What a wonderful interpretation of KOL NIDRE. So real, and so applicable, especially for those of us who have so much experience 'getting' or 'missing' the train. This is a message that we can listen to very day. The video is dynamic, full of life and one can sense the enthusiasm and sincerity of the speaker. THANK YOU. This is one email that i am SAVING! SHANA TOVA UMETUKA

Well done. From all points of view. The lesson is very powerful but also the way it's done technically is excellent. To convey such a strong message in such a short time is an achievement that deserves to be underligned. Others would take hours to convey the same message. Shana Tova

Excellent video, very inspiring. I am sure everyone seeing it will find a true answer to their eternal question of Why is it so difficult tu jump into spirirtuality? Thanks. Tizku Leshanim Rabot

I watched this after break-fast after Yom Kippur. This video inspired me to stick to my resolutions.. thank you! What a great, timely release

I can add nothing more, except to say thank you very much.

One of the most inspiring, comprehensive I've ever seen regarding Yom Kippur!

FANTASTIC

This hit straight home- a powerful message that I could grasp and actually keep in mind on yom kippur. Thank you!

IT MADE ME CRY

It was fantastic just like other videos! You all are great!

every time i either listen to charlie harary at national yarchei kallah (ncsy), watch his videos, or anything, i am so inspired. his words always touch my life. what an inspiring and special person...

Wow! Thank you so much! This is AMAZING. I was so scared of yom kippur that I completely blocked it out of my mind. I've got so much bad baggage from this year and I just felt that god hates me for what i did and he's not interested in hearing from me. But i will drop my bags and jump onto the train. Thank you Thank you Thank you!

i don't know whether to cry with relief or jump for joy. that was something I so needed to hear this erev yom kippur! thank you

That sounds reassuring that Yom Kippur is no guilt trip - it is more about moving forward than dwelling on the past, especially with such materialism and other minutia. This is why Hashem loves us and that He gives us an opportunity to let go of the material and emotional baggage we have been carrying for so long. Thus, why live in self-pity and dwell on the past when one can move forward constructively? It just can be a challenge not to let go, because we think we have not yet fixed all our past problems, however YK certainly gives us a day or opportunity to move on...As for the vows, that can still be important so as long as it stipulates the Torah, especially when it comes to Jews marrying Jewish. All in all, we express constructive regret and move on from our material and emotional baggage.

Excellent movie, it was captivating, funny, and expressed such truth. I happen to agree with the previous comment that leaving the end quiet would allow for further contemplation rather than the light trumpet jingle which switched the mood back to light and non-chalant.

I was discussing the signigcance of Kol Nidrei with my study partner last week and I don't think I was giving her the complete picture of this special prayer. Thank you so much for inspring me, hopefully inspiring her and the excellent and very 'moving' message. Gmar Chasima Tova

This was amazing and has changed my whole outlook on Yom Kippur :)

Wonderful Message - thank you!!

this was amazing, thank you

wow... very inspiring film. got me motivated to put down the computer and learn Torah... a small but important note to the people who made the video... I don't think you should have included the sound clip of trumpet at the end ... silence would have been much more appropriate for this situation, leaving the viewer in contemplation. It totally changed the mood at the end. besides that it was very good

thank you, that was so inspiring and will help me this yom kippur!!

Thank you guys at Aish so much. I envy all of you so much. I want to do what you do someday! Inspire

This video is a true eye-opener. It is something we don't always think about, but yet it is very important. Thank you so much for this wonderful presentation.! Gemar Chasima Tova

This video was amazing and spoke straight to my neshama. I know I will have a better yom kippur because of it. I am about to email it to as many friends as possible to help inspire their neshamas in preperation for yom kippur as well.

Thank you so much for such a great explaination - this is the first time I can actually relate to the meaning of Yom Kippur from a spiritual point of view! Keep up the great productions!

This is an amazing video. Sometimes when a person speaks on a video, it is 1-dimensional. This video is 3 dimensional ! Often I think in terms of material to show my classes, and I will show them this, but it was also important for me to see it. G'mar Chasima Tova ! --

That was great. Thank you so much. This is just the right pep talk for this week.

Wow, this is truly amazing!!! It's like he read my mind when it comes to the religion-daily life choices. Thank you so much!!!! May this be a great year of health, happiness, peace and prosperity for Am Yisrael. Gmar hatima tova everybody!

thnk u so much for this great insight. u r an exeptional speaker and wonderful jew. pls inspire us more all aboard please

I teach 6th grade and I am going to show them his video tomorrow morning! Excellent!! Thank you!

Your message was an insperational to my soul. The whole world needs to hear this and leard from it. Thank you again, Charles and Eliyahu. Happy holidays

wow amazing!!!!!!!!! i cant thank you enough i cant wait to get on the train! gmar chatima tova!

I loved your presentation and used some of the ideas in my classroom. i made every girl a mini suitcase and a list of common restrictions(about 20) each girl cut out whichever applied to her and put it in a pocket i called 'baggage claim' thank you for an unbelievable inspiring video!!

Thank you for such an inspiring message! I'm ready to drop my bags and just go for it! The images and your story telling is such an inspiration to all!

thankk you! thank you! thank you!

There are a lot of Jews out there who say, it's not for me.....and when I invite them to go to shul with me, they're not interested. The question is, how do we get to these apathetic Jews in order to get them back on the rails? Even if it is with just a little baggage. Maybe they need to take a little baggage with them in the initial stages which may make it seem easier to jump on the train and remain there. They will then see that the baggage is no longer needed.

Eliyahu, Another fantastic job! Charlie is great but you make him look even better.

I was revited to see how the video would develop. The message was a clear call to action. He challenged and comforted the audience at the same time. You've given my Yom Kippur davening a kick start.

This is one of the most meaningful videos I have seen. Thank you. I have dropped my bags.

.

I was watching this video when my 6 year old son(who by the way LOVES trains) sat down to watch with me. He was hooked! and so was I !! After I asked him what do you think the message was here. He said"Don't make mountains out of molehills." and "If you move to slow you wont catch the train." I explained what the bags represented to us. We have now watched it 3 times!!! Something I thought was just going to be a great video for me ended up being a beautiful change to share GOD's love with my son!!! Thank you!!!!

Amazing job!! This video will change my Yom Kippur! What a z'chus you have to help so many people before such an important day. Thank you so much!!!

Gmar Hatima Tova to you and all of Am Yisrael

What a fantastic video; what a great message. Thank you.

So inspiring! Thank you!!

Charles my man, that was incredible!! Simply put, edge of your seat, riveting performance, and fantastic message.

This is such an amazing video. It came at the right time for me and my family. We have been having issues with the I IDon't Want to Look Like That idea. Clothing has been an issue and we've been afraid to look like someone else. But it is time to drop our bags and get on the train and work from the outside in. Thanks for the inspiration

that was really good, and i liked that explanation of kol nedrei. i wish he would do a lot more viedos i really like his style, it is very captivating

WOW! I hear you!

This video was unbeleivable , thanks too you i will have a better yom kippur keep up the awesome work and life changing experiences @ aish

Loved it Charlie! Great job!

my google website only supports utube, we are a Jewish elementary school, please add it soon befor Yom Kippur! thanks

This concept of restriction of self=vows will change Kol Nidrei for me....possibly Yom Kippur,possibly more after that. Thank you......

What a gift G-d has given you. Thank you for sharing. I will be sharing this link

This is a really good video and interesting! The message was meaningul and special! Thank you!

AMAZING!!! hit the spot completely! Thank you!

Got the message across in a clear interesting, insightful way - Thanks!

Nice teaching...and please bring back the car wash video. My all time favorite! Thank you.

Charlie Harary does it again! How does he get us to WANT to fast on Yom Kippur?! Let's take his advice and go for the closest relationship with Hashem we can have.

That's an amazing message!! And that's what I need right know. Just jumping into the spiritual life!!! Thanks for this message. That's a wake up call!! And it will help me a lot!!

this is a very beautiful video and very motivating. hatima tova to all

This video was so helpful to me in terms of actually getting excited for YK. I've been observant almost 18 years and this is the first time I have heard anyone explain KN and its pre-eminance. I really connected with the message -- and the metaphor. Everyone should get their friends to see this. Thank you so much!

Wild

you are the real thing!!!! I hope Hashem continues to grant you a creative mind & that you use it to inspire others!! Thanks!! Shana Tova!

beautiful, great mashal!!!

The Shavuous video was better, but this one was very cute as well. Keep 'em coming.

this is a very good video very clear msg to all who looks on this video and to all jews...

A moving video...worth every minute...exceedingly well written and conceived. Bravo.

Honestly Charlie, you have a true gift of speech. And youre using it to your fullest potential. I am grateful for your inspirational videos...please make more!

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this man is a national treasure. should be required viewing in every Hebrew School, day school, yeshiva, etc. We want more!

Excellent Video! Great and powerful message. Thank You!

I've been checking out Aish.com for 3 months looking for the next Charlie Harary movie. This was worth the wait! Thanks so much. and bring on more.
