The Path of Blessing

How to use the traditional Jewish practice of asking God to bless each action as a profound path of spiritual growth.

A simple Hebrew blessing is a powerful thing -- a one-minute, deeply meditative exercise exploring the nature of the Creative Force we call God and the dynamic relationship between God, human consciousness, and the unfolding universe. Rabbi Prager guides us through the opening words of a Hebrew blessing, revealing how the letters and words combine to promote joy and appreciation, wonder and thankfulness, amazement and praise. Each word becomes a stepping stone inviting us to discover the infinitely abundant Presence of God flowing through even the smallest actions of our lives.

In the ancient language of Jewish tradition and the modern language of feminist consciousness, creation theology, and psychology, Marcia Prager brings the words of the Hebrew invocation dramatically alive.
