David Abram
“While each of us encounters only a corner of this world, it is nonetheless the same outrageous world—the same Earth—onto which our various senses open, the same inscrutable Earth that each engages with its fingers or its feathered wings, with its coiled antennae or its spreading roots.”
David Abram, Becoming Animal

“elders serve as conduits between the divine realm and the mundane world, making the abstract truths of spirituality accessible to the community by embodying them in their everyday behavior.”
Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, From Age-ing to Sage-ing: A Revolutionary Approach to Growing Older

“God is always present. The question is, how present are we?”
Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, Davening: A Guide to Meaningful Jewish Prayer

“True prayer is a bursting forth of the soul to God. What can be more natural and more human than turning to God’s listening presence with our thanks and our burdens?”
Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, Davening: A Guide to Meaningful Jewish Prayer

“We make God the steward of morality and build up expectations, expectations that sooner or later are bound to be shattered. If instead we strive to accept all sides of the equation, if we could get into a Möbius strip mentality in which both sides of the page, good and evil, are one and the same, then we start to get a real sense of that famous phrase from Adon Olam: “Ve-hu echad ve-ein sheini,” God is one, there is no other.”
Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, Jewish with Feeling: A Guide to Meaningful Jewish Practice
