Description

The complexities of Kabbalah and Judaism are introduced and explored by Perle Besserman, who ranges from Judaism in Biblical times to the present day. She offers an investigation of the Kabbalah and its cosmology in the context of modern science and comparative religion, and explores different Jewish meditation techniques. These include breathing and movement exercises, meditations on Hebrew letters, and visualisation techniques. She also explores questions of gender in the patriarchal tradition, and the importance of the oral teaching tradition.

Author Biography:

A descendant of the Baal Shem Tov, Perle Besserman has studied Jewish mysticism with Rabbis Zvi Yehuda Kook and Aryeh Kaplan. She has written several books on mysticism, including Kabbalah- The Way of the Jewish Mystic (published under the name Perle Epstein), and is the editor of an anthology in Shambhala Pocket Classics, The Way of the Jewish Mystics. She presents workshops on women's spirituality around the United States and in Europe.
