  • Torah - the Memory of Who I Am
    May 28 2025

    Who came first - the Torah or the Jewish People? What is the purpose of the Torah? This discussion contrasts masculine and feminine energies, highlighting the nurturing aspect of femininity. By encouraging a shift from a conquering mindset to one of presence and nurturing, we can redefine the relationship with Torah; from viewing it as a checklist of tasks which exists outside of ourselves, to a guide for self-discovery and alignment with one's deepest self.
