Opening to Revelation with Rabbi Shefa Gold

In counting the days of the Omer, we are preparing ourselves to become the vessels for God’s Presence and messengers for the Divine Word. God instructs Moses to tell us to make ourselves holy for the Day of Revelation,

to wash our garments and get ready! In this workshop of preparation for Shavuot, we will use the modalities of study, chant and holy conversation to prepare ourselves as channels for the Divine flow of Revelation that is available in each moment of radiant presence.

Sunday, May 2, 10:30 AM – 12:30 PM, PT
