  • Oneness in Creation - 4 - Hello Darkness | Rabbi Ari Sollish
    Jul 22 2024
    Oneness in Creation - Part 4 “Hello Darkness” With Rabbi Ari Sollish Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Sunday, July 21, 2024 It seems almost axiomatic that darkness precedes light. That's the way it was when G-d created the world, and that's the way it so often plays out in our experience. Light is attained only after struggling with and vanquishing the darkness. But what is darkness? Is it merely the absence of light, or does it have its own independent energy? These questions have been discussed and debated over the centuries by laymen and philosophers alike. And now, we have the chance to examine what the Jewish mystics have to say about this. In this session of Kabbalah Cafe we explore the soul of darkness and discover why darkness is, indeed, a necessary key to light.

    Do Not Negotiate Sometimes It’s Best Not to Answer At All With Rabbi Ari Sollish Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Tuesday, July 16, 2024 Wouldn’t it be nice to live in a world where everyone engaged in honest dialogue, asking questions not to challenge or deride, but only to genuinely learn? Sadly, that isn’t our world (yet). A garish story in the Torah teaches us that when someone isn’t looking for an answer, it’s best not to engage at all.

Jewish meditation dates back nearly 3800 years -- yet is far less known. In this session of Kabbalah Café we explore Jewish meditation: its history, its process, and its techniques.

    "Live Free or Die” Is What G-d Wants The Watershed Moment When Truly Choosing G-d Was Born With Rabbi Ari Sollish Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Tuesday, June 25, 2024 It would seem that it’s a binary choice: doing what I want, or doing what G-d wants.
