Renewing Relationship with Gaia, Coming Close to the Divine
Now more than ever, we must rediscover this intimate connection with Spirit and Earth. Join Rabbi Zelig Golden, Founder and Executive Director of Wilderness Torah, to remember ancient aspects of our earth based Jewish traditions and the implications for our plight in modernity. The Korbanot, the sacred offerings of Leviticus, remind us of a birthright to come close to the Divine through our relationship with earth’s elements.
Zoom meeting info will go out to members; guests, please email the office to receive it, or watch on Facebook Live – https://www.facebook.com/rabbimarc.labowitz
Zelig’s vision for a thriving, earth-based Jewish tradition developed out of a lifetime of nature connection, Jewish leadership, and commitment to environmental advocacy. Zelig invokes mentorship, facilitation, and ceremonial tools to guide an annual cycle of land-based festivals, nature-based rites of passage, and mentorship for emerging leaders.
Zelig received rabbinic ordination from ALEPH, Alliance for Jewish Renewal, supported by the Wexner Graduate Fellowship, and was previously ordained Maggid by Rabbi Zalman Schacter-Shalomi ztz”l. He holds a Masters in Jewish Studies from the Graduate Theological Union. He previously worked as an environmental lawyer protecting food and farms and has long guided groups into the wilderness.
