Meaning and Mitzvah:
Deepening Your Jewish Practice
You will be helped to
look at your relationship to six mitzvot and the traditional guidelines
for fulfilling them. We will do this in a special way, through a lens that
takes into account
the principles of changing times and personal needs that R'Zalman
Schachter-Shalomi
usually terms "psychohalakhah" and that this instructor calls "kavod lev
halachah" - "honoring the heart of the tradition and of the individual."

Judaism and Focusing
1. Do You Always Have to Forgive?
We get such mixed messages in our various
cultures about forgiveness. "Just do it" raises resistance and can
increase damage to self. Focusing in the place where "forgive" lives
inside of you as an irritating, intriguing, misunderstood idea can lead
to a precious new state of connection to what happened and how to relate
to it differently and with the potential for authentic healing.
2. The Kavannah Project: Focusing and
Judaism
In this experiment, you will be guided in applying your Focusing skills
to the partner study (in English, Hebrew will be available too) of a few
lines of Torah, Talmud and Prayer. Participants will then share whether
what you find in the texts and this unique study experience differs from
the expectations you have of Judaism based on your upbringing.

Bioethics, Jewish Law and Paradigm Shift
Consider how Judaism, viewed through a psychohalachic lens, where the tradition is studied and the values and issues of our times and hearts are
taken into account,
might inform your perspective on topics such as
end-of-life decisions, reproduction and infertility, abortion, and organ
donation.

Rabbi Joseph Gikatilla of the 13th century
provided us a legacy of how to have mystical experiences through the
process of Jewish prayer. He not only developed meditations that have
remarkable effects on the human mind and spirit which you will taste
during this workshop, but you will also learn and experience his Ladder of
Jewish Prayer.
It explains how the morning prayer service is a carefully
sequenced series of carefully designed nutrients for the human soul
stream. Most of us were given the format and formulas of prayer but not
shown how. This workshop will especially focus on the energizing,
healing and spiritual nutrients that are buried in every prayer and
service. |

with the intention of experiencing a sacred state of consciousness can
increase your experience of a life rich in meaning, satisfaction and
connection. There will be optional experiential homework.

Half-day
workshop |
Often poorly translated as
"forgiveness" or "repentance," the Jewish spiritual practice most often
associated with the High Holidays is known as "teshuvah". This practice of
change and realignment of relationship is traditionally done in a climate
of moral self re-evaluation and sense of being judged. Ironically, true
personal change comes more from listening empathetically to one’s inner
voices within an environment of safety and support, than being forced
through beating up on oneself.
In this workshop, participants will first
study teshuvah through classical Jewish text study, prayer, poetry and
Jewish meditation based on the gentle teachings of the Kotsker Rebbe and
other teachers of Jewish spiritual practice. Then, through interactive
exercises based on Focusing technique and Gestalt methodology,
participants will learn the skills needed to hear and honor those soft
inner voices that Dr. Gene Gendlin the developer of Focusing technique
calls "the voice of God." Finally, participants will identify
relationships where healing may be possible, and prepare for this by
practicing focusing technique in a way that facilitates interpersonal
teshuvah. |

| August 14-20, 2000 No more snoozing through Torah portions about the sacrificial system. For
too long, cynicism and criticism about these parshiot (Torah readings) and the Cohanim
(priests) have blinded us to opportunities for growth and close study of these texts and
related commentaries. Using hevruta (pair) study and bibliodrama, we will open up these
powerful passages with participants. No blood will be shed. |
