If art speaks to you more easily than a lecture, if you are a mourner, if you wonder what Jewish traditions say about the soul, come to this unique presentation.
The Soul Visits the Shiva Home
Rabbi Me'irah will be one of the presenters at the day long Jewbilee, a day of learning sponsored by the Addison-Penzak Jewish Community Center in Los Gatos.
Basing her talk on a 4 panel-artwork "map," Rabbi Me'irah will lead participants through the unique experience of the mourner's first year, and will help us locate where, according to Jewish tradition, the soul of the deceased is located, and what it is up to! Portions of the artwork will be projected large enough for all to see. Question and answer period.
Some comments from previous participants:
