It was such a pleasure to sit down with you. Looking forward to delving deeper into the intersection of diapsorism and mysticism with you in the future!
So very fresh, bringing life to a path that can easily become stultified. Great to see the next generation engaging with such clear attention. Many thanks to all
'The duties of the heart,' I had never thought of too much spirituality without the body being like a ghost. The need to be grounded in the body as just as important as having the heart. Thank you, such a beautiful conversation. 🩵
Hi Zevi I'm listening to your interview on The Jewish Diasporist and just wanted to let you know that some Tibetan Buddhists in fact do take refuge in the guru and have a relationship similar to what Chassids have with their Rebbe. Many of the practices are "secret" though it's easy enough to find information about them these days.
1:16:54 Yes Zevi, we are all a part of this Earth 🌍 and, I don’t need to prove that I am creative and I don’t need to prove that I was created. We are more than just a part of the Earth we are divine too
When Zevi described Hasidism/Jewish Mysticism as emphasizing the spirit of the law (the heart) over the letter of the law (the commandments), I immediately thought of Jesus. Indeed, were the Jewish mystics of the 1st millennium inspired by Christianity?
P.S. (BECAUSE U COME OUT OF CHABAD SHLICHUS UPBRINGING): Going back 30 years or so, there was aVCR of (animation depicting) Seder Hishtalshelus going around amongst the shlichiim. ARE YOU AWARE THERE WAS SUCH A THING, HAVE YOU SEEN IT, DO YOU HAVE IT, AND CAN YOU/WOULD YOU KINDLY SEND ME A COPY OF IT? (I'm on t edge of my seat... )
(although i understand most Australians are even less formal than us Yankees, and you've no doubt currents of Hasidic Holy Disregard for sociologically strictures of propriety on top of that lol!) in case i should introduce "myself" lol: i was often in Zalman's living room while he was Working at hatching what became Renewal, but i went (mostly) "south" on it early on when, democrat/anarchist that he was, he let one of his then-incubating "leaders" direct the assembled to simply do hisbod'dus in place of an Amidah... no one with Insider EXPERIENCE, would, of course, EVER miss an Opportunity for the Quantum Leap the Ancient Liturgy provides, so while it took Zalman himself decades to admit it had veered off Wrongly, i saw it "in utero" already... Zalman and i resonated because, as a dear friend pointed out after reading his description of coming into Hisbon'nus in Crown Heights in the late '40s, i had similarly Discovered It in Kfar Chabad in the early '70s, and it had, as our first Experiential School of Mysticism brought our Practices of Torah and Mitzvot to everyday Experiences of Elokus... I'D LIKE US TO BECOME BUDS, MATE, AND HOPE TO HEAR BACK FROM YA, AMEN...
59:24 I believe your Jewish education was complete, and your claim that the secret pearls of wisdom were denied to you is curious. There is nothing preventing you, as a Seeker, to seek out those hidden gems! ❤ The issue fume is which Zevi is the hacked and which Zevi is the original… I prefer the one I am watching now and not the hacked Zevi 👺
1:02:54 Yes , Zevi, we all have Holiness within us, but the infant cannot be a Prophet. Just like the proximity of the infant to it’s Jewish Mother is everything, so too the Children of Israel need to be in proximity to Moses, who when alongside the Mother are both in proximity to God Our Protector
This may feel left field here however I'll take that turn. I haven't been here for awhile so with a burning question on my mind. l thought of looking back here to see what may or may not have happened since I last dropped in. Recently I've become alarmed by the imbalance in presentation of this kind of material, spiritual/psychological on the net. What is overwhelmingly evident is not only the disproportionate male presenters/experts with a disproportionate singular perspective, Masculine. I'm not woke just stunned by the imbalance in the production of such material from a, almost singular male perspective. If you doubt me go and take a look for yourself. And a thought experiment just for a moment think of accessing media where nearly everyone speaking on a subject of interest to you, this one; was a woman. If you're not troubled by that thought, you are in denial. Could You do something about this or at least simply look at it. However it would be very challenging, very.

Thanks again for this channel. It's always educational and heartwarming.
Thank you friend. It’s an honor to serve.
"...being able to connect this spiritual love, to philosophy-the love of wisdom, has been a really enlightening experience for me..."
I second that.
Zevi, you are truly erudite. Quite a Mystic in the Modern World. Thank You for Loving Wisdom.
So very fresh, bringing life to a path that can easily become stultified. Great to see the next generation engaging with such clear attention. Many thanks to all
This is such a great channel.. it’s a gift hearing Zevy’s stories and talks.
The naming and taming of the fox is one of the most profound parts of Le Petite Prince for sure.
'The duties of the heart,' I had never thought of too much spirituality without the body being like a ghost. The need to be grounded in the body as just as important as having the heart. Thank you, such a beautiful conversation. 🩵
I get a feeling that Zhevi is using his broad experienses ,knowledge ,orientation ❤ and wisdom
wow incredible

Yes… I do remember the 5 episodes, you and Justin aired on the Zohar! Time to revisit the depths… ;)
I apologize for the lapse of my memory.

Did I hear you correctly, Zevi? “The point [prophet/infant] at which the soul enters reality”
When Zevi described Hasidism/Jewish Mysticism as emphasizing the spirit of the law (the heart) over the letter of the law (the commandments), I immediately thought of Jesus. Indeed, were the Jewish mystics of the 1st millennium inspired by Christianity?
Pretty much the other way around, Christianity was born essentially as a form of Jewish mysticism.

Omg finally real Jewish mystics, blessed be.
