Open your heart and mind and discover—through the sacred art of
lovingkindness—the image and likeness of God in yourself and
others. "The question at the heart of this book is this: Will you
engage this moment with kindness or with cruelty, with love or with
fear, with generosity or scarcity, with a joyous heart or an
embittered one? This is your choice and no one can make it for
you…. Heaven and hell are both inside of you. It is your choice
that determines just where you reside." —from the Introduction We
are all born in the image of God, but living out the likeness of
God is a choice. This inspiring, practical guidebook provides you
with the tools you need to realize the divinity within yourself,
recognize the divinity within others, and act on the obligation to
manifest God's infinite compassion in your own life. Guided by
Rabbi Rami Shapiro, you will explore Judaism’s Thirteen
Attributes of Lovingkindness as the framework for cultivating a
life of goodness. Shapiro translates these attributes into
practices—drawn from the teachings of a variety of faith
traditions—that allow you to actualize God’s glory through
personal deeds of lovingkindness. You will enrich your own capacity
for lovingkindness as you: Harvest kindness through compassionate
honesty Make room in your heart for reality Recognize the
manifestations of God Embrace the paradoxical truth of not-knowing
Be present in the moment Do right by others With candor, wit, and
honesty, Shapiro shows you that by choosing to act out of love
rather than fear, with kindness rather than anger, you can
transform how you perceive the world and ultimately lead a more
complete spiritual life.
