“The old must be made new, and the
new must be made sacred.”
—Rav
Avraham Kook, first Chief
Rabbi of Israel
From the author of the best-selling Living Judaism, here
is an introduction to Judaism that is easy to read and easy to
use as a guide to embracing the spiritual practices that make
everyday life sacred within the Jewish tradition.
Rabbi Wayne Dosick deftly and sweetly
shows us how to rediscover and renew authentic Jewish spiritual
beliefs and practices—prayer and meditation, rituals and
observances, songs, stories and dance. This is a bold and
visionary conception of Judaism's coming new age—Soul Judaism—characterized
by a deep, personal, intimate relationship with God. Soul Judaism helps
shape the Jewish world's dialogue with and practice of Jewish
spirituality, Jewish renewal, and the Jewish future by taking
each one of us on a journey to the place where God bathes our
souls in love and brings wholeness and holiness to the very
core of our beings.
An easy-to-read introduction to Judaism,
and a vision of Judaism’s coming new age, Soul Judaism can
help you add a rich spiritual dimension to your life. Rabbi
Wayne Dosick’s easy to use guide to making everyday life
sacred can help you connect personally and intimately with the
divine.
“Empowers you to ride on the wings
of your soul to a Kabbalah-guided, mature, and yet
well-grounded Judaism.”
—Rabbi
Zalman M. Schachter-Shalomi, author
of First Steps to a New Jewish
Spirit: Reb Zalman’s Guide to Recapturing the Intimacy
& Ecstasy in Your Relationship with God
“A very helpful, considerate
introductory manual to a richer Jewish life. Rabbi Dosick
writes knowingly of how Jewish life is lived today, and wisely
of how it might be improved today, and now.” —Rodger Kamenetz, author
of Stalking Elijah and The Jew in the
Lotus
“Gives us a lively, compelling
vision of Jewish spiritual seeking. His words and melodies
reach out to us and draw us into the dance.”
—Rabbi
David Wolpe, author of The Healer of Shattered Hearts and Why Be Jewish?
“A practical, useful approach that
brings an ancient tradition alive in everyday life, especially
for people who have little or no background in Jewish
teachings.”
—Rabbi
David A. Cooper, author of God Is a Verb
and A Heart of Stillness:
A Complete Guide to Learning the Art of Meditation
“Rabbi Dosick uses
coach-at-half-time candor—‘This isn’t
working. Let’s stop. This will work. Let’s do
it!’—that is sometimes startling in its directness
but always optimistic in its confidence in Jewish
Renewal.”
