That sounds antithetical to spiritual living, but this lesson demonstrates that meditation can reframe every part of life and inject profound spiritual meaning into the most mundane activities. With the proper mindset and intention, simple behaviors like working, eating, and sleeping are transformed into purposeful and spiritually significant acts.

  • Overcoming Folly - 51 - The Kabbalah of Wealth
    Overcoming Folly - Part 51
    "The Kabbalah of Wealth"
    With Rabbi Ari Sollish
    (Recorded live at the Intown Jewish Academy on February 20, 2022)
    The pursuit of wealth raises a bunch of questions that challenge our spiritual and theological convictions.
    For example, if G-d is in control, why do we need to work to earn a living? And if it is our efforts that produce our wealth, then what role does G-d play?
    What does it mean when we say that our blessings are allocated on Rosh Hashanah? What is the role of daily prayer?
    In this session of Kabbalah & Coffee, we take an exquisite look at the Kabbalah of Wealth. We examine the dynamics that govern wealth creation, and articulate the role of both human and Divine input. All told, our discussion opened up a fresh and liberating perspective on work and wealth.
