Exploring The Soul - Part 14
"Crouching Lion, Hidden Mystic"
(Recorded at the Intown Jewish Academy on June 4, 2017)
There is a powerful biblical verse that likens us to a lion -- more specifically, a crouching lion.
Which stirs the question: Why are we only compared to a crouching lion, and not to a stalking lion, or an attacking lion? A crouching lion sounds so... passive, and not ferocious. It's missing the swagger!
Worry not, the mystics come to the rescue. Kabbalah teaches how the crouching lion is the most ferocious lion of them all, and how this imagery evokes the true power of the human soul.
In this session of Kabbalah & Coffee we take a walk on the wild side and study the mystical side of lions. |
