Jewish with Feeling: A Guide to Meaningful Jewish Practice, Paperback

Descriere

A how-to for Jewish spirituality that works.``A spiritual seeker is a person whose soul is awake. In this book I make no assumptions about how much you know about Judaism, what holidays you keep, or whether you believe in God. I want us to start from your soul's experience and carry on from there.``--from the Introduction``Virtually anyone remotely affiliated with Judaism should read this book,`` wrote Publishers Weekly, which listed Jewish with Feeling among its Best Religion Books of the Year. ``Without question the best, most readable introduction to Reb Zalman's philosophy of Judaism, it is also the best beginner's guide to Jewish spirituality available today,`` wrote the Forward, ``the perfect book for both the spiritual seeker and the curious skeptic.``Taking off from basic questions like ``Why be Jewish?`` and whether the word God still speaks to us today, Reb Zalman lays out a vision for a whole-person Judaism. This is not only Sinai then but Sinai now, a revelation of the Torah inside and all around us. Complete with many practical suggestions to enrich your own Jewish life, Jewish with Feeling is ``a mystical masterpiece filled with spiritual practices and an exciting vision of the future`` (Spirituality & Health). Spiritual experience, as Reb Zalman shows, repays every effort we make to acquire it.
