Hiding in Plain Sight: Is God Everywhere? (6 sessions)

Each morning and night, many Jews recite the Shema proclaiming that “God is One.” What does this mean? The mystical tradition has long taught that ‘One’ is not a counting number but rather a statement of unity. God is The One, The Infinite, and The Only thing that is. From this panentheistic mythical worldview, the divisions we experience in our lives from others, the world and G!d are only perceived truth. Join Rabbi Getzel for an exploration of the mystical ‘True’ divine world behind the screen where all remains whole and one. The class is open to all regardless of Jewish or text background, mystical experience, or meditative practice. Throughout the series we will discuss a variety of ways to cultivate an experience of oneness in nature, erotic intimacy, meditation, or being part of group.
