Torah-Veda

An Interspiritual Journey
Find Your Inspiration and Follow It

WELCOME TO TORAH-VEDA

Torah and Veda are two ancient sources of spirituality still vibrant today. Torah is conveyed through the sacred language of Hebrew and Veda is conveyed through the sacred language of Sanskrit. The focus here is on meditation, mysticism, philosophy, psychology and the underlying spirituality that has been incorporated into religions, and not as much on the religions themselves. Your comments and posts are welcome.

Quote of the Week 419 - Listening/Hearing for Non-material Sustenance


Every one who is thirsty, come and drink. He who has no money, come, buy and eat. Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good. Let your soul delight in abundance. Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear, that your soul will live…


--Isaiah 55:1-3, The Living Torah translation by Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan

-->
IVRI: The Essence of Hebrew Spirituality; 21st Perspectives on an Ancient Tradition.

This book addresses the ancient tradition of Hebrew Spirituality that is the foundation for Judaism and other religions and its relevance for today. Universal underlying themes of monotheism, monism, East-West connections, meditation, mysticism, Kabala, Yoga and Vedanta, are explored by the author/editor and guest contributors covering perspectives from Yoga, Judaism, Sufism, and Mystical Christianity. Specific topics include an overview of Kabala, Ibrahim and non-dualism in Sufism, Bibliyoga, a system for synthesizing yoga postures with biblical teachings, Victor Frankl and Logotherapy, spiritual activism and green yoga, and atheism, agnosticism and Jewish Secular Humanism.

In the interest of full disclosure, much of my content consists of revised and expanded versions of articles that have previously been published on my blog and listserve. However, there are four chapters by guest contributors that are entirely new, and I have also included several of my poems that have not been previously published anywhere.

This book is available directly from the publisher at
