Shavuot 5767/2007: Receiving the Torah of Today
Where: Isabella Freedman Jewish Retreat Center
Date: 2007-05-20 00:00:00
Type:
The holiday of Shavuot celebrates the revelation of receiving the Torah at Mount Sinai. Jewish tradition also teaches that each generation receives its own Torah, a process that begins on Passover and culminates at Shavout. This year, with the need for repairing the world so great, we feel the need to receive Torah all the more urgently. During our five days together we will explore fresh perspectives of the Torah of our ancestors as well as open our minds and hearts to receive our own Torah of today. Through a combination of exercises, lectures, practices and discussion, we will prepare for and experience the Sinai of this moment.
The "I" of "I AM": Radical Unity with the Divine in the Jewi...
Where: Isabella Freedman Jewish Retreat Center
Date: 2007-06-04 00:00:00
Type:
Many people experience the separation between humans and the Divine as a fundamental Jewish belief. The statement "I am God" could be considered at best arrogant, and at worst heretical. Amazingly, almost all esoteric traditions, including Jewish mysticism, assert that this very experience is a manifestation of the highest spiritual level one can achieve. Through song, text and meditation we will sample different approaches to experiencing what the mystics describe as divine union, and explore sources and practices from the founder of Chabad, Reb Schneur Zalman, to the contemplative practice of Tibetan Dzogchen.
TV on the Radio
Where: Trocadero Theater
Date: 2007-04-20 20:00:00
Type:
The Brooklyn-based group TV on the Radio mixes post-punk, electronic and other atmoshperic elements in such a creative way that it only makes sense that its core duo, vocalist Tunde Adebimpe and multi-instrumentalist/producer David Andrew Sitek, are both visual artists as well as musicians. Their first full-length release, 'Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes' arrived in spring 2004. Later that year they won the Shortlist Music Prize. Fuel by the positive press and reviews the band has kept busy with touring and side projects. Their latest album, 'Return to Cookie Mountain' features David Bowie on some tracks as a backing vocalist.\u000ASarah McCleave and Darren Bancroft make up this singer/songwriter band with dreamy folk psychedellic songs.

Have you taken classes in Jewish studies but long for a more intensive experience? Have you discovered that despite the many hours you’ve spent at lectures and in synagogue, your connection to Judaism remains tenuous? Do you suspect that knowledge of Hebrew could deepen your relationship to Torah and the tradition? This course will offer Hebrew language instruction of an unusual kind. Participants will spend the first part of the morning studying Hebrew with the aim of cultivating an intimate relationship with the Hebrew alphabet and its Biblical, rabbinic and mystical resonances. In the second part of the class, we will explore Talmudic, kabbalistic and modern philosophical discussions of the Hebrew language. These discussions will provide a unique entry into Jewish history and tradition. No prior Hebrew knowledge required.
Exploring the Zohar
Where: Isabella Freedman Jewish Retreat Center
Date: 2007-08-13 00:00:00
Type:
What exactly is the Zohar? Why is it considered the masterpiece of Kabbalah? How does it revolutionize Judaism? How can its deep, ancient wisdom transform us today? Daniel and Hana Matt will explore these questions with us, studying the teachings of the Zohar and engaging in spiritual practices to directly experience Divine Presence and deepen our spiritual lives. The selections we will study are from Daniel’s groundbreaking translation and commentary—The Zohar: Pritzker Edition. Among the topics to be covered: the feminine aspect of God (Shekhinah), the mystical dimension of Torah, the radical idea that God needs us, the spiritual and psychological meaning of the ten sefirot (divine qualities), and Kabbalistic techniques of meditation.
