KABBALAH OF PRAYER ~ Sacred Sounds and the Soul’s Journey

 

In this remarkable, groundbreaking book, Shulamit Elson writes with eloquence and authority about our souls’ journey, our place in the universe, and our relationship to God through prayer. In beautiful and simple words, she shares the ancient teachings and the sacred sounds of the Kabbalah in ways capable of reconnecting us with the Eternal and changing our lives forever.

We learn of her journey from the closed world of an Orthodox Jewish family, on a voyage of discovery that took her into a secular life and travels throughout Europe. Then, faced with illness and personal difficulties, as well as the onset of waking visions, she began a path of meditation. Gifts of healing and prophecy followed. Eventually, she met her Maggid, the traditional Kabbalistic “answering angel,” with whose help she developed a series of meditative “Sound Prayers” using sacred sounds produced by the practitioner’s own voice.

Elson explains the theological, cosmological, and esoteric foundations upon which “Sound Prayer” is based. We are introduced to the ancient wisdom of the Kabbalah, the “Tree of Life,” and the structure of the soul in its relationship with God. We learn the true nature of prayer, how it relates to Tikkun Olam (“Repair of the World”), and how “Sound Prayer” relates to different angelic levels of being and truth.

This is a practical book that gives individual exercises as well as offering help on meeting specific challenges, including spiritual struggles, feelings of meaninglessness, and harsh self-judgment, as well as illness, fear, and anxiety.

“One of the clearest distillations of Jewish spiritual teaching that I have ever read. Shulamit Elson writes from a place of ‘experiential’ understanding of spiritual laws. Rather than shine light on the Kabbalah from the outside, she shines a light that illuminates the Kabbalah from within.”
— Rabbi Jonathan Kligler, Woodstock Jewish Congregation, Woodstock, NY

“Kabbalah of Prayer is a thing of beauty. With its astounding directness and simplicity, it is real teaching, from one human soul to another.”

brooklyn-bodhisattvas

“These poems are a joy to read. They bring you home, again and again, to truth you knew but forgot. They’re about living in what is true and real. The goal is daunting, and yet each poem is a refreshing, familiar taste of being there, a place one already knows. It’s not only possible but simple and within reach. Shulamit’s voice is, wise, aware, often dispassionate, funny. It hits dead center and then goes on. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.” ~ Anonymous

“Brooklyn Bodhisattvas has to have been composed by a Bodhisattva. It’s spiritually uplifting and visionary lines illuminate the place you have been lifted from. Magnificent!” ~ Harold Akrongold
