Second Annual
Spirit at Sea Retreat

May 16-19, 2008
aboard Majesty of the Seas, Royal Caribbean Cruise Line

Study, interact and grow with Rabbis Marc and Phillip Labowitz as we explore together the universal topic...

The Spiritual Approach to Relationships
Intimacy is Not for Lovers Only

Intimacy is... Our intention behind everything
Behind every Kabbalistic text is intimacy, the union with God. Intimacy with anyone (a partner, a child, a friend) mirrors a Great Devine Union. Our desire for intimacy is supported by our existence and desire to connect with God.

Intimacy is... The reason we were created
We desire to connect and to feel connected. We wish to be unafraid to show ourselves openly and honestly to the world, to be loved for who we are, as we are... all the time. We search to find someone to share this with... allowing us to manifest intimacy in our physical lives.

Intimacy is... More than finding a partner
While finding a partner is the most discussed emotional yearning, it is not the only intimacy that our souls crave. Kabbalah teaches that intimacy is the power and reason behind everything and can be cultivated in all of the relationships in our lives. The underlying truth is that when we create intimacy with others - friends, lovers, business relationships, children - we are fulfilling that deepest desire to create intimacy with God as well.

Some of the events planned for the retreat…

Friday night service
Mikvah (a ritual bath used for spiritual purification) on a beach on a private island in the Caribbean
Havdalah (an end of Sabbath ceremony)
Tisch (an open session) where you Ask the Rabbis questions that have been pulling at your heart
Workshops and study groups all weekend plus…
Music and drumming
Optional evening get-togethers
Of course the dancing, shows, music and libration of a wonderful cruise
And time to enjoy the ports

Be Prepared to...

Dance, sing, chant, be in festivity
Be in stillness and peace
Connect with people and energy like yours
