Wisdom Class with special guests Rabbi Shefa Gold and Rachmiel O’Regan

The Torah commands that you must love God “with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your might.”  You are commanded to “love the stranger” and “to love your neighbor as your self.” And you are asked to receive God’s love in the form of Torah, community, history and the wonders of Nature. These commandments about love are at the heart of Torah. They constitute at the same time, the most simple and the most complicated challenge of living a holy life.

The Path of Love, of rising to the challenge of learning to love and be loved, is the most rigorous spiritual path there is. Stepping onto the Path of Love, I am faced with every resistance, every illusion, every obstacle to self-realization. In this workshop of deep heart work, we will use text, voice, meditation, movement and sacred conversation to explore the landscape of Love. How do we love God through this world? How do we receive God’s love through this world? How do we become intimate with the Mystery behind each moment of our lives?
