NACHUM SHIFREN, the Surfin Rabbi, in LIVING LUMINARIES

[TheLozano066]

there is no way surfing can be compared to an out of body experience. it is like if i want to spiritualize driving and say, well when i am driving i am in automatic pilot, i am just doing what needs to be done to drive so my spiriti is free to leave my body, and in that sense driving is an out of body experience. if it was truly an out of body experience you would fall face flat on your board, you cant have a truly out of body experience while surfing, anyone that knows OBE knows what im sayin

Shifren is an extreme right wing hate-monger who surfs a little (and publicly pontificates a lot). As the video demonstrates, he surfs better than he pontificates. He also feeds at the same trough as some of the wackiest, most corrupt and dangerous right wing politicians in the US and Israel. He has also been reported to the Wiesenthal Centers Digital Hate and Terrorism project. Don't be fooled by his silly surfer dude mask.

I find this to be a bizarre and backwards explanation of the skill required in any sport. Most athletes describe a mind body UNITY and harmony during sports like skiing and surfing. When I watch this character surf, he looks awkward to me, like someone who is disassociated from his body. This is the type of movement I would expect from someone who advocates leaving the body to be a better surfer. He looks like he could wipe out any second. My opinion, he has the cart before the horse.
