About the Book

How to find the way to greater spirituality in your life - using a "rationalist" approach. The quest for spirituality is universal and so is the confusion that often comes when choosing the path to spirituality that is right for you. Within Judaism alone, there are many distinct avenues of spiritual expression that can nourish the soul and mind. Where do we begin to find the one that's just right for us? A self-proclaimed rationalist, Rabbi Rifat Sonsino maintains that "there is not one correct way to Jewish spirituality that works for everyone, but there is a way for everyone." He offers a straightforward, objective discussion of the many ways - each valid and authentic - through which seekers can gain enrichment within the framework of Judaism. For each path Rabbi Sonsino defines its spirituality and explains its basis within Jewish tradition and his discussion includes: Acts of Transcendence; Study; Prayer; Meditation; Ritual; Relationships and Good Deeds. A refreshing rationalist approach to finding your own way to a spirituality within Judaism.
