Planting Seeds of the Divine invites us to build an ongoing relationship with the Divine Presence within us by planting seeds corresponding to the weekly Torah portions to help cultivate a garden of the soul.
Experiencing deep personal fulfillment, happiness, and sustenance comes from feeling connected to our authentic selves, which involves building an ongoing relationship with the Divine Presence within us, says author Yiscah Smith. Quite organically, then, we may begin sensing the Divine in our interactions with other people. This is because, for each of us, our essence, as a creation by God, is God.
Planting Seeds of the Divine elucidates how Judaisms sacred texts can provide the foundation for the end destination of experiencing intimate encounters with the Divine Presence withinthe God-consciousness that so many of us find elusive. Imagining ourselves as spiritual gardeners, we can cultivate our unique gardens with seeds centered on middot (emotional dispositions, character traits, spiritual sensitivities). Each seed corresponds to an aspirational Torah commentary, consisting of a selected Torah verse linked to one of the middot, a summary of the biblical text preceding the verse, classical commentaries, teachings of Hasidic and Neo-Hasidic masters and the author, and step-by-step experiential practices to help us internalize the middot and encounter the Divine.
Each seed contributes to the gardens beautythe beauty of the self in God-consciousnesswhich hopefully blossoms into a magnificent garden of the soul.
