'Spiritual Formation and Moral Psychology' has to do with the shaping of the inner life for spiritual,
moral, and emotional growth.
In class, we learn to identify the processes of our thoughts,
emotions, feelings, images, drives, impulses, and so forth, that create our state of mind,
and therefore our behaviors. We learn how to look at the "ego mind", but not to identify with it.
The focus on spiritual psychology helps us create a contemplative practice,
where we can better understand our inner processes with an eye toward transformation and moral growth.
Each month we focus on a few different themes. For February, we will study the Chasidic
background of spiritual formation and moral psychology growth.

Poetic Dimensions of Liturgical Texts
Wednesdays - March 10, 2010 - April 14, 2010
6 Sessions 10:30-11:45 AM
The liturgy of the Hebrew prayer book has a poetic
dimension that is often lost in translation. This poetic
beauty often becomes apparent only when the texts are
read closely, with attention to nuances in grammar, syntax
and other linguistic elements.
In this class, we will use
Hebrew grammar as we study the texts, to deepen our
knowledge of Hebrew as well as shape our relationship
with the Hebrew prayer book.
Hebrew reading ability is required.
