Book description:
Some of the great secrets to living a purposeful and soulful life have remained hidden from the broader world – tucked away in the repositories of the saints and holy people of a given wisdom tradition, accessible to only those in the right community or with certain language skills. And then every so often, somebody comes along and realizes that the thoughts and ideas of that obscure language and quiet community ought to be brought into the light and shared with the broader world, but in a way that is accessible for the common person and the present moment.
This is a book of Hassidic texts with contemporary commentary, meant for anybody who is seeking a little spiritual and moral guidance. The great Hassidic masters believed that all human beings were brought into the universe with purpose, and that a worthwhile life involves analyzing and reflecting on that purpose. The purpose of this book is to bring out these life lessons for the next generation – an independent and bold generation that is more diverse, more feminist, more queer, more individualistic, and perhaps more reflective than ever before.
