Classes from Letters From God

Featured

Class 1 - Introduction to “Letters from God”

What is so special about the Hebrew letters? Aren’t they just like the letters in every other alphabet? Join us as we begin our journey to discover the mystical secrets embedded in the letters of the Aleph Beit.

Class 2 - Provisions for the Journey pt. 1

What are the Kabbalistic concepts important to know, in order to understand the letters of the Aleph Beit? In this second class, we discuss the Names of God and begin our discussion on Tzimtzum and the Sefirot.

Class 3 - Provisions for the Journey pt. 2

Have you wanted a good, down-to-earth description of the Sefirot? In this third class, we review and then go deeper into the archetypal energies of creation, touching on many of the core Kabbalistic concepts necessary to understand the Hebrew letters.

Class 4 - Provisions for the Journey pt. 3

What is the Ineffable Four Letter Name of God? How is all of Creation—the worlds and souls—rooted in the four letters of God’s name? In this fourth class, we review "Provisions for the Journey” up to this point and then further explore these ideas in depth.

Class 5 - Aleph part 1

Aleph is the first and the head of all the letters. Explore the secrets held by Aleph: the Aluf HaOlam (God, the Creator), God’s vision of loving relationship with His Creation, the unity of all, Oneness, and one thousand.

Class 6 - Aleph part 2

Dive deeper into the Aleph. Discover who Primordial Adam really was, and how “the Accomplished Woman” relates to the lower Yud visible within the letter Aleph.

Class 7 - Beit

Beit, the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet, is the letter of the “other” entity that God created for His vision of loving relationship. We are this “other,” and our mission is to create a home for God in this lowest world. Discover how “blessing,” “knees,” “two-ness,” and “the process of perfecting” are all part of the beauty of the Beit.

Class 8 - Gimel

Gimel is the third letter of the Aleph Beit, and it is about the relationship between the Creator and His Creation. Gimel is about giving… it’s about growth, reward and punishment, reincarnation and the numerical value of three. Come and explore with us!

Class 9 - Dalet

Dalet is the fourth letter of the Aleph Beit, and with it, details about Creation begin to unfold. Dalet is about the poor one, humility, diminishment, and drawing up the empty bucket. In Dalet we begin to explore the fascinating midrash of the sun and the moon, as revealed in the Talmud and later commentaries.

Class 10 - Hei

God created This World, the world of tikkun, with the fifth letter of the Aleph Beit—the letter Hei. Discover how Hei is uniquely linked to teshuvah (return), creative expression, and the Cosmic Feminine.

Episode 1 - Elul - Introduction

Why is this podcast called “It’s All About Relationship?”

Because relationship is the template for everything in this world. Before creation, there was only God. He was ALL, filled all, existed for all time…perfect and complete. But since there was no other, in some mysterious sense, He was missing the experience of giving goodness to an “other.” He was missing the experience of actualized relationship….

Episode 2 - Elul - Returning to God

How is God’s creation of an “other” from His Oneness, reflected in the Torah through the story of Adam and Chava. And how did the debacle of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil fundamentally change their—and our—relationship with Him through time?

Episode 3 - Elul - Run and Return

What is the dance of Run and Return? And how do we see it reflected in our spiritual goals of actualizing our unique potential and coming closer to God in holy union? Explore the dance of our divine souls as we run and return from expanded consciousness into our busy daily lives.

Episode 4 - Elul - Maintaining Balance

How do we balance between the run and the return of our lives? Running down to the world is easy for us. Our lives are about taking action - whether we’re working for our bread and butter or taking care of our family. What’s more difficult, however, is to remember to take the time to connect with our souls and with God.

Episode 5 - Elul - Meditation

This episode is a little different. It’s a ten minute meditation to help you slow down and connect to the Holy One, and there are two different options! I’m guiding one and my husband, Shaul Gedalyah is guiding the other. They’re both identical... just the voices are different.

Episode 6 - Yom Kippur

What do the words “Yom Kippur” actually mean? What does the word “atonement” mean? Yom Kippur is about a completely new start. It’s about clearing our debts, our broken promises to each other and our broken promises to God. Yom Kippur is about becoming clear, ourselves, so that our soul can return to her pristine state and shine out through the physicality of her body.. Yom Kippur is the “reset” that brings us all to a new beginning.

Episode 7 - Sukkot - 5785

Pull up a chair and join me in my Sukkah for a few minutes! (Listen for the birds singing in the background!) And learn how to build yourself a spiritual sukkah out of the Six Constant Mitzvot… one that you can carry around with you always!

Episode 8 - Meditation - Connecting Heaven and Earth

We’ve got an intelligent soul within a physical body that is capable of choosing connection with its source... No other creation can create conscious connection. This happens when we tune in to our soul by slowing down and going inside. This meditation helps us relax and tune in to our connection with our soul of infinite light... rooted in the heavens and anchored into this physical world.

What Does It Mean to be Created in the Image of God?

A kabbalistic look at the essence of being human. The Torah describes human beings as being created “in the image of God.” Since God is the Creator of heaven and earth, we, too, must be creators...

Does God Really Care About the Details?

Why Judaism places great importance on the details. Does God really care if I eat a cheeseburger? Does it really matter whether I light my Shabbat candles a minute before or after sunset?

Does God really care about these details? Isn’t the most important thing that I’m a good person?
