Episode 481: Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness II - Chakeh-Mah (Wait for What), with Gemara
We are proud to introduce the 3rd podcast in the Judaism Unbound family of podcasts: Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness, hosted by Jericho Vincent. "We are the ancestors of the future." This new podcast offers a spiritual home for listeners seeking to connect Jewish ancestral, feminist wisdom with their own svara: moral intuition. Each episode of this limited series delves into a different story of our ancestor Miriam, illuminating her mystical teachings and offering practical tools for navigating and flourishing in personal or political spiritual wildernesses. We're thrilled to periodically feature episodes of Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness here on Judaism Unbound. But we don't only feature those episodes alone. Lex Rofeberg and Rena Yehuda Newman, two members of Judaism Unbound's team, supplement each episode with some gemara (commentary) as well. We hope that our ideas will help spur you to form your own gemara, and channel your unique teachings -- about this podcast and beyond -- into the world. Delving into Miriam’s Torah of patience and presence, this episode explores the Jewish mystical teaching of Chakeh-Mah, the ability to “wait for what.” we’ll talk about the power of a Sufi sermon, the narrow place, Spiritual Chutzpah, razzle dazzle slave economics, time travel, moishiachtzeit, and a practice for bringing Miriam’s living Torah into our own lives. R' Jericho talks about the definition of wisdom, Wait for What, what kind of salt we want to be, a concussion, descent for the sake of ascent, why you’re alive in this moment, and a practice for bringing Miriam’s living Torah into our own lives.Subscribe to Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness anywhere that podcasts are found!
