Limmud NY 2015

Two years ago, the late abstract expressionist artist Annette Heller began to paint the ten Kabbalistic sefirot (emanations) of God. Her husband researched the hundreds of interpretations of the sefirot, from traditional Jewish readings to a comparison with Jung's archetypes. His session will summarize that research, focusing on Kabbalistic thought as a response to historical crises and on Tikun Olam (repairing the world) as a result of recognizing each of the sefirot. He will also show her work.

This is an "Open Mic" event - without the actual mic because it is Shabbat - that invites participants to speak their spiritual truth in a safe and interactive setting. Each participant will be given three minutes to riff about their relationship (or lack of relationship) with God and/or spirituality through spoken word or song.
