  1. Is it common to place a deceased body on the floor, and surround it with candles?

    Moderators Note: Every deceased body is placed on the floor. You just never saw it. It’s called “Hashkava”.

  2. As I am typing, they are pushing at the cemetery like wild vultures. Apart from being outright פיקוח נפש, it also is an absolute בזיון and disrespect

  3. I don’t see it as disrespect at all. It shows the godlus of the Rebbi that everyone feels like his talmid and needs to participate in the mitzva.

  4. Dear 147: If you ever been at any of the levayot of the gedolei hador before, then you know that the kowod HaTorah and display of emotions rises very high. I see that as a very positive emotion. I was also there and I know how to stay out of the way of the pushing and shoving as much as possible, Even in Rechov Wilkomir, I was able escape that, even when the ambulance came by. I thought that the ambulance would make a left to Rechov Harav Dessler but to my shock it came straight at as. But there was enough possibility to find place to get out of the worst.
