      Gutman Locks the "Mitzvah Man" Shares Kotel Stories


      How can so much happen to one man? Gutman Locks the "Mitzvah Man" was blessed with the will and the opportunity to go out and bring a little G-dliness to people through wrapping tefillin on them, and increasing their mitzvot. But it wasn't always that way for him. Locks has personally traveled through the spiritual spectrum. Born a Jew, he was raised secular, entered the hippie scene in the 1960s, and fell into eastern religions. After a long spiritual journey, he came home to the Torah, and today is a religious Jew who stands at the Western Wall in Jerusalem and helps other Jews out on tefillin, find Shabbat meals and helping them find their path to G-d. His colorful stories that span the globe can be found in his inspiring book, "Coming Back To Earth." Gutman Locks  was a guest on the most recent episode of Arutz Sheva's Tamar Yonah Show.
