Summary
The Hebrew word for "Egypt means "places of contraction and stuckness." For the metaphorical journey from the slavery of "stuckness" to the revelations high on Mount Sinai, Rabbi Ted Falcon provides 49 meditations based on the Kabbalah. His newly released book, A JOURNEY OF AWAKENING--Kabbalistic Meditations on the Tree of Life, guides readers to liberation, using an ancient system of levels--corresponding to chakras and the Tree of Life. Flexible and universal, the meditations can be implemented by practitioners of any faith tradition--at any time of the year, in any sequence. They can also be used in conjunction with the traditional, 49-day Counting of the Omer between Passover and "Shavuot. No matter when the meditations are begun, they will shine a transforming light into readers lives. Writing his breathtaking truths in simple sentences, Rabbi Falcon confronts us with paradoxes, leaving us "available for what we cannot hear from the places of our stuckness."
