  • Interpreting Diagrams from the Sefer Yetsirah and Its Commentaries 1
    NOTES 1 Word and Image in Medieval Kabbalah: Interpreting Diagrams from the Sefer Yetsirah and Its Commentaries 1. The most notorious example of these practices is the popularizing work of Aryeh Kaplan. His critical editions of the SY and the Sefer ha Bahir are some of the most widely read in the field because they provide the texts in Hebrew and English with comprehensive and useful appendices. However, these works are deeply problematic because they dehistoricize the tradi- tion by adding later diagrams to earlier works. For example, in his edition of the SY he appends eighteenth-century diagrams to later versions of this tenth-century text. Popularizers of kabbalah such as Michael Berg of the Kabbalah Centre treat the Zohar as a second-century rabbinic tract without acknowledging textual evidence to the contrary. See his introduction to the Centre’s translation of the Zohar: P. S. Berg. The Essential Zohar. New York: Random House, 2002. 2. For a variety of reasons, kabbalistic works were transmitted in manuscript form long after other works, such as the Hebrew Bible, the Talmud, and their commentaries were widely available in print. This is true in large part because kabbalistic treatises were “private” works, transmitted from teacher to student. Kabbalistic manuscripts were also traditionally transmitted in manuscript form because of their provenance. The Maghreb and other parts of North Africa were important centers of later mystical activity, and print technology came quite late to these regions, with manuscript culture persisting well into the nineteenth, and even into the mid- twentieth century in some regions.

  • Maybe It's Not So Weird, After All Page 1 of 7 Jewishjournal.Com 12/7
    JewishJournal.com Page 1 of 7 2007-12-07 Maybe it's not so weird, after all Reconsidering L.A.'s most controversial un-synagogue, the Kabbalah Centre By Rob Eshman, Editor-in-Chief The first time I visited the Kabbalah Centre, I thought it was weird. The congregants all wore white; the man on the bimah called out letters of the Hebrew alphabet ("Alef to bet to taph!"); the letters themselves were displayed in massive typeface on posters around the sanctuary. At certain moments in the Shabbat service, congregants circled their arms around their heads, like background dancers in a music video. And when the Torah came out, everybody held their hands out with their palms up, to, as the man standing next to me explained, "Receive the Light." My wife was there, too, upstairs in the women's section. She whispered something to a friend during the rabbi's sermon, and someone on the other side of her hissed, "Shh!" It was comedian Sandra Bernhard. Weird? It all seemed to me a cross between Scientology and Hebrew school -- full of glassy-eyed acolytes who knew more about multilevel marketing than Torah. Two weeks ago, I went back. And what I found and what I felt shocked me: I liked it. That's right, I liked it. I had been reading Jody Myers' (photo, left) just-released book, "Kabbalah and the Spiritual Quest: The Kabbalah Centre in America" (Praeger, $49.95), and it is the book's great strength that it forces a second and third look at a group that the great majority of mainstream Jewry finds suspicious, aberrant, fraudulent -- even dangerous.

  • Processes of Domestication in Jewish Approaches to Yoga Practice Tara
    From "Om" to "Shalom" Processes of Domestication in Jewish Approaches to Yoga Practice Tara Giangrande Senior Thesis in Dance Anthropology Swarthmore College Advisors Pallabi Chakravorty and Christopher Fraga May 3, 2016 Abstract This thesis exammes Jewish approaches to yoga as projects of cultural and religious domestication. My research centers on critical analysis of popular Jewish yoga literature and on interviews and participant observation in classes with 10 Jewish yoga teachers. These teachers either cater specifically to a Jewish clientele or pursue a syncretic form of yoga that facilitates Jewish spiritual experience. I consider how such approaches vary along denominational lines, arguing that Orthodox teachers secularize their practice through processes of de-Hinduization, while more progressive, non-Orthodox teachers cross-ethnicize Jewish religious content into their classes. Orthodox teachers value yoga as a physical technique for the promotion of health, fitness, and body positivity, while non-Orthodox teachers appreciate yoga as spiritual practice for embodying Jewish religiosity. I argue that all of these methods generally preserve the physical form of yoga, while domestication occurs within the textual material that accompanies the technique. Furthermore, I situate these projects of domestication within a larger historical trajectory of interaction, utilizing Weber's concept of elective affinity to understand how the evolution of the relationship between Judaism and yoga in contemporary American society has made possible projects of confluence pursued by Jewish yoga teachers. Table of Contents Introduction 1 Chapter 1 Theorizing Jewish Yoga as Syncretic Culture 8 Chapter 2 Contextualizing Confluence between Judaism and Yoga 20 through the Model of Elective Affinity Chapter 3 Processes of Domestication in Jewish Yoga Texts 38 Chapter 4 Methods of Domestication among Jewish Yoga Teachers in 52 Orthodox versus Non-Orthodox Communities Conclusion 79 Bibliography 83 1 Introduction Figure 1.

A n d S A n d ra S . b o R n S J ew i S h S T u d i e S P Ro g ra m Jason Mokhtarian Tracy Judah Cohen Alvin Rosenfeld Annual Magazine I Volume 48 I Fall 2020 From the Outgoing Director The approaching end of my two terms as Director of the Borns Jewish Studies Program (JSP) prompts me to reflect on all the constituencies that make this job so meaningful, and together define our program. There are our versatile, multifaceted, and committed undergraduates, whose energy and intelligence enable them to master so many different demands alongside each graduates’ Jewish Studies (JS) major, certificate, or minor. The intimate online graduation ceremony we conducted this year, (see small photos on cover page), where a different faculty member talked about each senior, brought out their passion and quality more clearly than ever. There is our tightknit group of high-powered graduate students, extending knowledge in JS from biblical analysis through to the sociology of contemporary Israel. Our graduate conference is an annual reminder of their range and sophistication, and their ability to attract faculty and graduate students from all over the US and beyond to present and debate. There is our internationally renowned and interdisciplinary faculty, newly rejuvenated with three outstanding appointments in the fields of Hebrew Bible, modern antisemitism, and memory studies. Their intense commitment to our students is the glue that holds the program together — as Mark Roseman was again so evident in our graduation ceremony.

  • Marriage and Sexual Behavior in the Teachings of the Kabbalah Centre
    MARRIAGE AND SEXUAL BEHAVIOR IN THE TEACHINGS OF THE KABBALAH CENTRE Jody Myers 1. Introduction Th e Kabbalah Centre is a new religious movement that seeks to dis- seminate the teachings of kabbalah to a universal audience. Founded in 1970 in the United States, it exhibits many of the characteristics associated with postmodern religious sensibility.1 Symbols from dispa- rate frameworks of meaning—including New Age ideas, psychology, physics, and capitalistic consumer culture—are utilized to interpret and communicate concepts and values rooted in twentieth century and pre-modern Jewish kabbalah. Promising that the teachings of kab- balah will bring personal fulfi llment and contentment, and addressing themselves primarily to spiritual seekers 18–45 years of age, Kabbalah Centre teachers recommend ways of fi nding a loving life partner, cre- ating a fulfi lling marriage, and sustaining an exciting and emotionally satisfying sexual relationship. Th ey suggest behaviors that conform to Jewish religious law and modern orthodox Judaism—with a notable exception on the matter of homosexuality, about which they are quite tolerant. However, they assiduously avoid explicit identifi cation with Judaism. Th eir recommendations and explanations are based on sci- entifi c reasoning, pragmatic individualism, and kabbalistic concepts shorn of their particularistic ethnic associations. Kabbalah Centre teachings are an elaboration and interpretation of the kabbalistic writings of Yehuda Ashlag (1885–1954).2 Born in Warsaw, Yehuda Ashlag received a rabbinical education and was attentive to, though not formally educated in, modern thought. He moved to Palestine in 1921 in order to devote himself more intensively to the study of kabbalah, and except for a few years spent in England, he lived in Jerusalem until his death in 1954.

  • Giller on Garb, 'The Chosen Will Become Herds: Studies in Twentieth-Century Kabbalah'
    H-Judaic Giller on Garb, 'The Chosen Will Become Herds: Studies in Twentieth-Century Kabbalah' Review published on Thursday, December 17, 2009 Jonathan Garb. The Chosen Will Become Herds: Studies in Twentieth-Century Kabbalah. Translated by Yaffah Berkovits-Murciano. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2009. xi + 218 pp. $50.00 (paper), ISBN 978-0-300-12394-4. Reviewed by Pinchas Giller (American Jewish University) Published on H-Judaic (December, 2009) Commissioned by Jason Kalman Once and Future Trends in Contemporary Kabbalah It is a truism of the latter-day interest in Kabbalah that there is a dichotomy between the academy and the kabbalistic “street” in Israel and the Diaspora. Sometimes it seems that fairly serious students of Kabbalah, at least in the Diaspora, could not find their way around a bookstore in Machaneh Yehudah, the public market of Jerusalem, which seethes with popular Kabbalah. The enmity is mutual; many were the times that I heard “Professor” hurled as an epithet in the kabbalistic seminaries of Machaneh Yehudah. So contemporary scholars, such as Boaz Huss (“The New Age of Kabbalah,” published in the Journal of Modern Jewish Studies [2007]), Jody Myers (Kabbalah and the Spiritual Quest: The Kabbalah Centre in America [2007]), Jonathan Meir (“New Discoveries Concerning R. Judah Leib Ashlag,” published in Kabbalah: Journal for the Study of Jewish Mystical Texts [2009]), and Jonathan Garb, are performing an important scholarly task by investigating the substantial literature and history of contemporary trends in Kabbalah. Garb’sThe Chosen Will Become Herds is an important contribution to the field, with different emphases than other works of the genre.
