Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi
What inspirations and teachings from Midrash and Kabbalah can we take into the future? These Jewish inner traditions have been studied, interpreted and applied for generations. Yet there is a need to take a new look for this and future generations. Reb Zalman will lead an advanced group of students in a critical examination of these traditions using experiential methods, ancient texts, and the wisdom of the participants. We will explore which parts can be translated for continued use and what may need to be left behind? We will also delve into what aspects of the inner tradition must be created anew, by women and men, to give them the lasting power to inspire and transform us.
