The instinct to pray is as ancient as instinct itself. Our deepest
yearnings coalesce and emerge as prayer. Prayer itself has taken on
countless forms, from offerings to song, words to whispers, tearful
supplication to sublime silence. And so it continues to merge and
emerge, at times as primitive and raw as a cry for help, at times,
a formulaic equation intended to effect change, - but always,
flowing from a place deep within, and forever with a hope for a
better future. While attention is paid to the poetry, history,
theology and contextual meaning of the prayer text within these
pages, the intention of this work is to provide a guide to finding
meaning and effecting transformation through our prayer experience.
Explore: What happens when we pray, Entering the mind-state of
prayer, Incorporating the body into prayer, Understanding our role
in prayer, Techniques to enhance and deepen our prayer and make it
a transformative experience. In this empowering and inspiring text,
Rav Pinson demonstrates how through proper mindset, preparation and
dedication, the experience of prayer can be deeply transformative
and ultimately, life-altering.
Tefillin, the black boxes and leather straps, that Jewish men wear
during prayer, are curiously powerful and mysterious. Within the
inky black boxes lie untold secrets. In this profound, passionate
and thought-provoking text, Rav DovBer Pinson explores and reveals
the multi-dimensional perspectives of Tefillin. Rav Pinson
magically weaves together all dimensions of Torah;, Peshat, literal
observation, to Remez, the allegorical; Derush, the homiletic, to
Sod, hidden Kabbalistic, into one wonderful tapestry. Pinson
reaches for the underlying unity within all wellsprings of Torah
and uncovers the hidden profound mystery of the Tefillin.
Inspirational and instructive, Wrapped in Majesty: Tefillin, will
make putting on the Tefillin more meaningful and deepen the
experience.
Kabbalah holds the secrets to a path of conscious awareness. In
this compact book, noted spiritual teacher DovBer Pinson presents
32 key concepts of Kabbalah and shows their value in opening the
gates of perception. From the Introduction: Simply translated,
Kabbalah means "that which is received." Looking deeper, the word
Kabbalah can mean to be open and receptive, to challenge one's own
internal navigational system in order to see, hear, and be open
to... more. We must be receptive to a teaching to fully absorb it.
We turn ourselves into vessels and invite within that which we wish
to understand or grasp. In this way, we become receptacles,
dispensaries, and a part of the Kabbalah. We become vessels of this
tradition by opening the self to a higher reality, and viewing the
spirit within the matter. We raise our consciousness to the point
where the Divine within all creation is revealed. As we pursue a
deeper awareness, we become less ego-centered and more attuned to
the deeper significance of our surroundings. About the author:
Rabbi DovBer Pinson heads the Iyyun Center in Brownstone Brooklyn.
He has written several books, including Inner Rhythms: The Kabbalah
of Music; Reincarnation & Judaism: The Journey of the Soul;
Meditation & Judaism: Exploring Meditative Paths and Jewish
Wisdom of the Afterlife.
