Showing results for "HEALTH" in Judaism

As a psychiatrist, Dr. Rubin learned that Anti-Semitism and other deep-seated prejudices are non-organic diseases of the mind: malignant emotional illnesses that can be treated by only first understanding the unique psychodynamics involved. Little has been written about this aspect of bigotry. Anti-Semitism is a bold endeavor to shed light on one of humankind's most destructive and contagious illnesses, and offers hope and healing for the future.

Esta obra representa un completísimo estudio de la dimensión transpersonal de la espiritualidad judía.

What is the teaching of Lashon Hara? Many Jewish teachings emphasize avoiding negative speech about others. Lashon hara is said to harm three people at the same time: the one who says it, the one who hears it, and the one who’s being talked about. The opposite of lashon hara is lashon hatov, or good speech. Is Lashon Hara biblical? The Torah contains a general injunction against rekhilut (gossip): “Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people; neither shalt thou stand idly by the blood of thy neighbour: I am the LORD.” (Leviticus 19:16) Is Lashon Hara a sin? Lashon ...

The Pele Yoetz is a classical moral treatise and compilation of essential Jewish concepts that Rabbi Eliezer Papo (1785-1828) organized according to topics in the order of the Hebrew alphabet. The first entry in the book is “Ahavah” (love of G-d) and it discusses sanctifying the name of the Holy One Blessed Be He. The closing entry is “Teshuvah” (salvation) and it implores us to seek salvation not just as a nation, but also as individuals, who place their trust in an omniscient Creator. In between are many of the most fundamental principles, essential philosophical tenets, and ethical ...

Our current exile is confusing and dark, but redemption beckons at every corner. The great, prolific 18th-century sage, Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto, wrote what was to be Ma’amar HaGeulah as a letter to his students, at the age of twenty-three, revealing to them the nature of the process of redemption. Today, we are blessed with the illuminating commentary and translation of Rabbi Mordechai Nissim, whose words transform the Ramchal’s esoteric, often cryptic ideas into practical life lessons. Every reader cannot help but be astonished at the prescience of the Ramchal, and riveted by the ...
