註釋
Is it really possible to connect with God? Can we find spirituality in Judaism? The answer to both these questions is yes. Traditionally, Judaism teaches that we connect with God through the performance of the commandments, the
mitzvot
(from the Aramaic word
tzavta
meaning connection). But what if we are not
mitzvah
-observant in the traditional ways? Can we still experience a palpable closeness to God and have a sense that we are all connected as one? To this question, our sages also answer yes. Through the meditative quieting of the mind, we can directly experience that “still small voice.” It is the awesome voice of infinite intelligence that created and upholds our world with compassion and justice. When we repeatedly experience it, we enliven its qualities into our lives; we “walk in God’s ways.” When we do so, we uplift not only ourselves, but the world around us.
