The soul yearns to feel connected to something greater and to
know happiness despite personal suffering and seemingly endless
need. Surprisingly, the teachings of nineteenth-century Hasidic
spiritual teachers offer a radically different Jewish theology that
speaks directly to contemporary spiritual seekers whose faith has
been shattered by both modernity and the Holocaust. These masters
taught of interdependence, interconnectedness, selflessness,
service and joy, anticipating the insights of contemporary science
and twenty-first-century spirituality.
Mindfulness meditation, growing in popularity and influence
throughout North America, directs practitioners to focus on their
life experience in each moment. The spiritual practice offers the
possibility of inner peace, fearlessness and expansive concern for
the wellbeing of others.
These volumes bring the two together, providing a practical
mindfulness method for applying the spiritual teachings of the
Hasidic masters to everyday spiritual life. Covering the Five Books
of Moses, they present accessible translations (many previously
unavailable in English) of selections from "Kedushat Levi," the
Hasidic Torah commentary of Rabbi Levi Yitzhak of Berdichev, one of
the most beloved Hasidic leaders. His Torah commentary emphasizes
our spiritual capacity to transform consciousness and so our life
experience. The selections are paired with Rabbi Jonathan Slater's
commentaries to help the reader understand their message and
suggestions for practice, based in mindfulness, grounding them in a
contemporary life.
