Questo libro riassume millenni di ricerche spirituali, patrimonio un tempo di una élite. Aryeh Kaplan, un grande maestro contemporaneo, ci permette di seguirlo passo passo verso un mondo al quale tutti aspiriamo, quello del riavvicinamento al Creatore dell'Universo. Le tecniche meditative ebraiche sono messe in parallelo con quelle dell'Oriente ed esaminate nella loro peculiarità. Aryeh Kaplan, con la sua erudizione e la sua profonda sensibilità, ha trasformato una intuizione in certezza: quella della dimensione meditativa della preghiera ebraica. Questa guida pratica introduce il lettore alla meditazione mantrica, a quella contemplativa e alla visualizzazione in un contesto ebraico, e insegna come utilizzare la meditazione per rafforzare le preghiere tradizionali. Per mezzo di esercizi semplici e spiegazioni chiare, Kaplan ci offre i mezzi per sviluppare il nostro potenziale spirituale attraverso pratiche meditative autenticamente ebraiche. (fonte: retro di copertina) '(this is) the first book to read on the subject. It is a gentle, clear introdiuction and provides exercises and practices that can be used right away by any Jew who wants a deeper prayer experience.'-Rodger Kemenetz, author of The Jew in the Lotus 'New and old davveners can learn from this sainted teacher how to deepen their holy processes....One can, with the help of God and the aid of this manual, tap into the Cosmic.'-Zalman M. Schachter-Shalomi 'A guide to Jewish prayer and meditation that is both grounded in the tradition and genuinely mind-expanding. For anyone seeking to connect with the spriitual side of Judaism, this book is essential.'-William Novak 'At a time when Jews are rediscovering theri hunger for spirituality, Kaplan's clear and comprehensive book could well be one of the most important Jewish books of our time.'-Harold S. Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People Aryeh Kaplan, who died in 1983, was a well-known Orthodox rabbi and teacher of Jewish meditation. He is the author of many books, including a translation of the Torah commentary Me'am Lo'ez. Contents Introduction 1 What is meditation? 2 Why medititate? 3 Techniques 4 States of consciousness 5 Jewish meditation 6 Mantra meditation 7 Contemplation 8 Visualization 9 Nothingness 10 Conversing with God 11 The way of prayer 12 Relating to God 13 Unification 14 The ladder 15 In all your ways 16 The commandments 17 Between man and woman 18 Remolding the self I'm not Jewish (my spouse is) but I think meditation is a great practice. So I read this. The first half is actually very relevant to anyone who wants to consider meditation as a spiritual practice, but as it goes along, it gets deeper into Jewish doctrine and schools of thoughts and methods that I think are (not surprisingly, given the book is about Jewish meditation) going to be of more interest to a Jewish person. So I'm not doing a star ranking because I am totally unqualified to do it, but interesting read. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Students of mediation are usually surprised to discover that a Jewish mediation tradition exists and that it was an authentic and integral part of mainstream Judaism until the eighteenth century. nbsp; Jewish Meditation is a step-by-step introduction to meditation and the Jewish practice of meditation in particular. This practical guide covers such topics as mantra meditation, contemplation, and visualization within a Jewish context. It shows us how to use meditative techniques to enhance prayer using the traditional liturgy--the Amidah and the Shema. Through simple exercises and clear explanations of theory, Rabbi Kaplan gives us the tools to develop our spiritual potential through an authentically Jewish meditative practice.
