Title:

Feminine Archetypes in Judaism and Kabbalah
|
Description:
|
In this video, Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi discusses the feminine aspects of God. He begins by outlining what he will be speaking about and then relates a story of his time at Boston University and finding a location to do morning prayers there. Rabbi Zalman then shifts the discussion to Kabbalah and specifically the Tetragrammaton. He explains each of the letters and their multiple meanings, including two of the four letters symbolizing mother and daughter. Rabbi Zalman then discusses the use of physical movement during prayer and relates the movements to Mudra (attributed to Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism). After movement, he discusses breathing and cites an example from the Jerusalem Talmud. He concludes the video by relaying a story of when he changed all of the words during his prayer from masculine to feminine and how difficult it was to break from the traditional liturgy, but how enlightening it was. There is a skip in the video near the end which resolves on just a sentence more before the video finishes.
