Host AJ Langley is joined this week by Joel Hecker to discuss the Zohar, an essential work of Jewish mystical thought. We discuss the complexity of its authorship, the concept of radiance, the difference between meditation and drugs, sex in mystical texts, and balancing an ascetic life with a wife and kids.
