Standing in SilenceSynthesizing Divinity and Materiality in the AmidahWith Rabbi Ari SollishAt the peak of our prayers, we expect to encounter prayers about the soul, G-d, and spirituality -- temporarily abandoning all trivial and mundane matters. This lesson explores the Amidah prayer, the summit of our communion with G-d that, most surprisingly, is built around a series of requests for basic material needs. It offers deep and revolutionary insight into the relationship between G-d, spirituality, and our corporeal lives.
