Story
Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan has translated Sefer Yetzirah, the oldest and most mysterious of all kabbalistic texts, and now brings its theoretical, meditative, and magical implications to light. He expounds on the dynamics of the spiritual domain, the worlds of the Sefirot, souls, and angels. When properly understood, Sefer Yetzirah becomes the instruction manual for a very special type of meditation meant to strengthen concentration and to aid the development of telekinetic and telepathic powers.

The translation of the Tanya into English was a watershed event in Chasidic history, impacting the world spiritually and physically. The Tanya had already conquered the airwaves with the innovative "Tanya on the Radio" hosted by the late Rabbi Yosef Wineberg. The publication by Kehot of those pioneering classes in English, back in 1987, brought Chasidut to thousands of students around the world, becoming an essential tool for all those seeking spiritual guidance.

Experience a practical, uplifting, and fascinating introduction to a time-honored system of spiritual growth and self-discovery. The Kabbalah, Judaism's timeless mystical tradition, was said to be brought down from heaven by angels. Its teachings were originally passed down by word of mouth because mystics believed its secrets transcended the written word.

In the realm of visualizations, there are both externally based visuals where one uses an actual external object as a focal point, as well as inner creative visualizations where one creates an image within the mind's eye. In addition, there are also awareness practices with which one learns to become aware of what already exists within the inner screen of the mind's eye.

From a multitude of sources, Elie Wiesel culls facts, legends, and anecdotes to give us fascinating portraits of notable figures throughout Jewish history. Here is the prophet Elisha, wonder-worker and adviser to kings, whose compassion for those in need is matched only by his fiery temper. Here is the renowned scholar Rabbi Yohanan ben Zakkai, whose ingenuity in escaping from a besieged Jerusalem on the eve of its destruction by Roman legions in 70 CE laid the foundation for the rabbinic teachings and commentaries that revolutionized the practice and study of Judaism.

Wiesel brilliantly evokes the world of medieval European Jewry, a world of profound scholars and closed communities ravaged by outbursts of anti-Semitism and decimated by the Crusades.

Story
First published in 1905, The Varieties of Religious Experience is a collection of lectures given at the University of Edinburgh in 1901 and 1902. William James was a psychologist and, as such, his interest in religion was not that of a theologian but of a scientist. In these 20 lectures, he discusses the nature and origin of religious belief. The average believer is one who has inherited his religion, but this will not do for James's inquiry.

Not feeling well on the Jewish New Year in September 1991, the Rabash summoned his prime disciple and personal assistant, Michael Laitman, to his bedside and handed him that notebook. Its cover contained only one word, "shamati (I heard)". As he handed the notebook, he said to Laitman, "Take it and learn from it." The following morning, he perished in his student's arms, leaving him and many of his other disciples without guidance in this world.

Publisher's Summary
Treasured Folk Tales from Hasidism's Most Legendary Storyteller
Rebbe Nachman, the great-grandson of the Baal Shem Tov (founder of Hasidism), worked ceaselessly to bring the most profound spiritual truths into the life of every person. A brilliant teacher who wrestled with worldly troubles and setbacks, he succeeded at last in creating "something that will endure forever" - his stories. Stories of Rebbe Nachman presents these crowning jewels of his life's work - teaching fables that vividly communicate how to live with the presence of God in daily life. Told by Rabbi David Zeller, director of Israel's Yakar Center for Torah and Creativity, Stories of Rebbe Nachman presents these tales as they were first heard - by word of mouth - accompanied by Rebbe Nachman's original niggunim (Hasidic folk melodies). An uplifting session from the man called "the first storyteller of Judaism". Tales include: "The Lost Princess", "The Clever One and the Simpleton", "The Rabbi and His Son", "The Fixer", and more.

Unbearable to listen to
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
The book might be for me, but the narrator is not. :)
How did the narrator detract from the book?
I would love to listen to these stories, but the narrator doesn't read smoothly. The narrator pauses at inappropriate times, taking much longer to read than needed. :(
