Mussar
Have you ever asked yourself the following questions:
What kind of human being am I? What are my strengths? What are my weaknesses? What can I do that will help me become a better person? How does who I am impact others and the world around me?
Mussar offers an answer. The study and practice of Mussar is a centuries old Jewish tradition that fosters personal and spiritual growth. It is as relevant today as it was 1000 years ago.
You can live a meaningful, ethical life by examining your inner middot, soul traits, and cultivating behavior that is an expression of the best version of yourself. Mussar will guide you toward overcoming your inner obstacles. As you improve the quality of you own character, you will improve the relationships you have with others. Through personal transformation, you will improve the civility of the world in which we live.
Together we will exercise our souls using text study, group discussion, study with a chevruta (partner), journaling and experiential practices.
Mussar 1 – Beginner
No prior Mussar experience necessary
We will be exploring six character traits (middot) including Humility, Anger, Gratitude and others. Guidance on the practice of Mussar, including how to study Mussar texts, will be provided.
Facilitated by Jeff Maimon (jsm99000@gmail.com)
Class size is limited to 10 and will meet on Zoom.
The class will have an opportunity to meet in person for one or more of the sessions if the group chooses to do so.
Scholarships are available. Please discuss with Cantor Hollis.
Note: All Mussar classes have limited registration in order to provide an intimate class experience. Registration will close ONE WEEK before classes are scheduled to begin. If more students register than can be accommodated, instructors will hold a lottery. You will be notified a few days before the class is scheduled to begin to confirm your registration.
Sorry, Registration has ended.
