  • Integrating the Rational and the Mystical: the Insights and Methods of Three Hassidic̣ Rebbeim
    139 Integrating the Rational and the Mystical: The Insights and Methods of Three Hassidic̣ Rebbeim By: RONALD PIES Introduction The leading figures of hasiduṭ combined rational analysis of the hu- man condition with their own mystical insights. Through this synthe- sis they emerged as masters of psychological methods with which they served G-d and guided their followers. The rationalist strain in Judaism identified religious truth with the faculty of reason and the use of logic. Thus, Maimonides has been described as “… the typical rationalist, in that rational understanding stands immeasurably higher for him than the experiences men have through feeling and intuition.”1 It is more difficult, however, to define “mysticism” in the Judaic context. Still, Louis Jacob’s definition is a good start: “Jewish mysticism can be defined as that aspect of the Jewish reli- gious experience in which man’s mind is in direct encounter with God.”2 In this essay, I examine three seminal figures in the Jewish mysti- cal tradition: Rabbi Nahmaṇ of Bratslav, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liady and Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson. 1 Borchsenius, Poul.

  • Toward a Meaningful Life: the Wisdom of the Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson Pdf
    FREE TOWARD A MEANINGFUL LIFE: THE WISDOM OF THE REBBE MENACHEM MENDEL SCHNEERSON PDF Rabbi Simon Jacobson | 352 pages | 02 Nov 2004 | HarperCollins Publishers Inc | 9780060732783 | English | New York, United States Toward a Meaningful Life - Wikipedia A blueprint for living an ethical and meaningful life, based on the teachings of the late leader of the Lubavitch movement of Hassidic Jewry. Adapter Jacobson has edited and prepared the public talks of Rabbi Schneerson widely known as the Rebbe and believed by many of his followers to be the messiah for publication for 14 years. Here he presents the essence of the Rebbe's more universalist teachings, made relevant to non-Jews and assimilated Jews. In three sections on man, society, and GodJacobson paraphrases the core of the Rebbe's teachings. Living a moral and meaningful life, according to Rabbi Schneerson, is predicated on the recognition of God. A believer perceives life as a gift from God whose purpose is to allow us to improve the world and use our talents to enrich the lives of others. Sex, according to the Rebbe, is wholesome and even sacred within the context of marriage. A healthy life is also relatively devoid of materialist pursuits and extraneous material comforts. Death is a journey in another vehicle rather than an end of life. Quotes from the Rebbe, anecdotes from his life, and an array of Jewish commentary supplement the text. While spiritual seekers may find more questions raised than answered, Toward a Meaningful Life: The Wisdom of the Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson book lays down the framework of a consistent moral vision.

    Chabad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedivisiteda on 1/6/2015 Page 1 of 12 Chabad From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chabad, also known as Habad, Lubavitch, and Chabad-Lubavitch,[1] is a Orthodox Jewish, Hasidic movement. Chabad is today one of the world's best known Hasidic movements and is well known for its outreach. Organizationally, it is the largest Jewish religious organization in the world.[2][3] ,Wisdom" :( המכח , הניב , תעד ) is a Hebrew acronym for Chochmah, Binah, Da'at ( בח "ד :Founded in 1755 by Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, the name "Chabad" (Hebrew Understanding, and Knowledge" which represent the intellectual underpinnings of the movement.[4][5] The name "Lubavitch" is the Yiddish name for the originally Belorussian village Lyubavichi where the movement's leaders lived for over 100 years. The Chabad movement represents an intellectual-mystical school of thought established and led by a dynasty of Hasidic rebbes. The movement was based in Lyubavichi (Lubavitch) for over a century, then briefly centered in the cities of Rostov-on-Don, Riga, and Warsaw. From 1940[6] until the present day, the movement's center has been in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn.[7][8] In 1950, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson became the seventh and last Rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch, and transformed it from a small hasidic movement, into the largest Jewish movement in the world today. He established a network of more than 3,600 institutions that provide religious, social and humanitarian needs in over 1,000 cities, spanning 80 countries and 49 of the 50 American states.[9][10][11][12][13][14] Chabad institutions provide outreach to unaffiliated Jews, and humanitarian aid, as well as religious, cultural and educational activities at Chabad run community centers, synagogues, schools, camps, and soup kitchens.
