purim bursts

This day is called Purim because its inner service is lots. There is a whole body of teachings about how to cast them. Every spiritual practice requires this expertise. In fact it is the limiting factor of religious life.

…One goes deeply inward (and upward) to find a place inside that transcends craving and aversion. Ones love-bond to God gets so deep, one's vision so vast, that the truest (and normally hidden) truth becomes real: Every moment is an opportunity for closeness with God and it is not clear which builds intimacy more, the joy or the pain, the blessing or the curse, Mordechai or Haman. Would there be Purim without Haman? Who do we thank more for this day?

kabbalistic writings on the nature of masculine and feminine

by Sarah Schneider
Kabbalistic Writings on the Nature of Masculine and Feminine, by Sarah Shneider, presents annotated translations of kabbalistic texts that paint an authoritative and enlightened vision of how man and woman will relate when they have healed themselves and fixed the world. Based on a talmudic tale about the sun and moon, Jewish mystical writings identify seven stages of waning and waxing that mark the feminine life cycle. They apply on all scales, from the span of an individual woman's life to the history of creation (for the entire period of existence from the beginning of time to its end is but a single circuit of the moon). In the seventh and final stage, woman stands equal and opposite to man and they meet for the first time as spiritual, intellectual, and emotional mates. This perfect marriage has been our (perhaps unconscious) yearning for six thousand years, and from its consummation flow all the promised blessings of the world to come.

"These 'ancient' Jewish teachings are profoundly relevant to the dilemmas we face as individuals and communities. They reframe contemporary events in paradigm shifting ways, and bring healing, illuminating, and guiding lights to bear on the issues at hand. The fact that people are asking the questions to which these esoteric teachings are the answer means they are ready to hear them and begin digesting their implications.

The purpose of this book is twofold: 'To publicize Jewish texts that are indisputably authoritative, and that present a spacious and enlightened vision of the evolving relationship of feminine throughout history. They are teachings with practical implications that can help to guide our life choices and religious expressions along the paths that serve God and good and truth.'
"To enable a direct encounter with kabbalistic source material for persons who lack the skills or resources to access this experience on their own. Its luminous wisdom is sure to inspire a respect and affection for the Torah and its traditions.

"In Kabbalistic Writings of Masculine and Feminine the texts speak for themselves. Their authoritative voices are the soul and might of this work. As proof texts they verify statements made in their name, and as holy texts they transform them to heart."
