Download or read book A Person is Like a Tree written by Yitzhak Buxbaum and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2000 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Person Is Like a Tree: A Sourcebook for Tu BeShvat is the only sourcebook available for celebrating the Jewish holiday of Tu BeShvat, also traditionally known as the "New Year of the Trees." The Tu BeShvat seder, created by kabbalists in sixteenth century Safed in Israel, is similar to the Passover seder and involves drinking four cups of wine and eating a great variety of fruits. The kabbalists sought, by their eating of fruit at the seder, to make a mystical tikkun (fixing) to repair the sin of Adam and Eve in eating fruit from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Yitzhak Buxbaum, the author of this sourcebook, notes that whereas most Jewish holidays are biblical in origin, and while Chanukah and Purim were instituted by the ancient rabbis. "Tu BeShvat is the only holiday ordained by the kabbalists."

Download or read book Reverse Ritual written by Rudolf Steiner and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 2001 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious ritual is often seen as a way of bringing divine influences down into the material world. In this profound and stimulating work, Rudolf Steiner and Friedrich Benesch introduce the idea of "reverse ritual"--a way that each of us can raise our souls to the spiritual realm. In this process, the everyday world becomes a portal through which we can enter the dimension of the sacred. Here, each of us can be a "priest," and each of our actions can be a cosmic, ritual act. This stimulating collection of writings on spiritual communion of humanity includes two further lectures by Steiner that show how this process can engage our social lives. Also included are two additional essays as appendices: "Sacramental and Spiritual Communion" by Dietrich Asten and "Human Encounters and Karma" by Athys Floride. The introduction by Christopher Schaefer brings these ideas into focus for modern seekers. Contents: Part One: "The Spiritual Communion of Humanity" (5 lectures from GA 219) Part Two: "Preparing for the Sixth Epoch" Part Three: Commentaries by Friedrich Benesch Appendices: Selections from Dietrich Asten: "Spiritual and Sacramental Communion" & Athys Floride: "Human Encounters and Karma."
Download or read book Tu Bishvat Seder written by Rabbi Iliinsky and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book delineating the order for a fruit meal to aid participants in celebrating the Jewish holiday of Tu BiShvat, the Birthday of the Trees. The eating of three types of fruits, soft throughout, those with a pit, and those with a rind symbolize the four dimensions in which we experience our lives, according to 16th C mystics. (The world of spirit is beyond our understanding, and therefore has no fruit.) This "seder" or order of this fruit meal, opens us up to appreciation and thoughtfulness and a more mindful way to conduct ourselves in life.
Download or read book The Jewish Spiritual Path written by Joshua L. Golding and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a leading belief in Kabbalah that the Tetragrammaton, the four lettered Hebrew name of God, serves as a model for the ideal of spiritual living. Each letter of the Name corresponds to a certain aspect of God and a specific phase of spiritual growth. At the same time, the four letters correspond to the four stages of the traditional Jewish morning prayer. This prayer serves as a spiritual exercise through which a person may cultivate the spiritual virtues associated with each of the four letters of God's Name. Joshua Golding combines a theoretical presentation of Kabbalistic concepts with practical guidance rooted in prayer to cultivate a deep spirituality based on the moral and mystical teachings of Judaism. The Jewish spiritual Path provides both an extended commentary on prayer and an intellectually rigorous spiritual self-help book.
Download or read book Tu BiShvat Seder order written by R' Israel Itshakov and published by Ben Israel Inc.. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tu-B'Shvat is the New Year for the Trees. As in all other points in the Jewish calendar, Tu B'Shvat offers a unique opportunity for insight into living and personal growth. Throughout the centuries, Kabbalists have used the tree as a metaphor to understand God's relationship to the spiritual and physical worlds. Moshe Chaim Lutsatto, in his 18th-century classic The Way of God, teaches that the higher spiritual realms are roots that ultimately manifest their influence through branches and leaves in the lower realms. In the 16th century, the Kabbalists of Tzfat compiled a Tu B'Shvat Seder, somewhat similar to the Seder for Passover. It involves enjoying the fruits of the tree, particularly those native to the Land of Israel, and discusses philosophical and Kabbalistic concepts associated with the day. Among other things, the Seder is a great way to appreciate the bounty that we so often take for granted, and to develop a good and generous eye for the world around us. The Seder presented here is based primarily on the Kabbalistic work, Hˍemdat Yamim, later published separately under the title Pri Eitz Hadar.
