Inward With Rabbi Joey Rosenfeld

S4:E6 Without Daat you have nothing, with Daat you have everything.  For our purposes Daat will not be considered an active sefirah but rather an internalized force that animates all other Sefirot. This episode focuses on the role of Daat as the external disclosure of Keter’s interior; the mode of embodied thought associated with Daat; the dialectical sway between connection and separation as embodied in Daat and the different iterations of Daat in the twofold form of “Transcendent Daat” and “Immanent Daat”. While discussing Daat as a stand alone concept we must keep in mind that Daat is neither something nor nothing but rather the impossible combination of both something and nothing and it must therefore be read as a bracketed concept that separates and connects the three upper Sefirot and the lower seven.  Please help us share Rabbi Joey's teaching by taking a moment to fill out our listener survey so we can better understand who is learning along with him, and how we can improve.  

S4:E5 The descent into the particular,  the parts that build the whole, and most importantly the sweetening of harshness in its root. Please help us share Rabbi Joey's teaching by taking a moment to fill out our listener survey so we can better understand who is learning along with him, and how we can improve.

S4:E4  The infinite within the infinitesimal.  The whole within the part,  and most importantly the ability to be ok within the moment.

S4:E3  Having and Not-Having at once.   Waiting for that which is beyond expectation.   Faith in the unfathomable. 

S4:E2 Rabbi Joey continues his new season on the sefirot with a second introduction, regarding ten emanative powers and their psychological expression. 

S4:E1 In the first episode of this new season, Rabbi Joey gives a few introductions necessary for the entire season.  As we learn about ten sefirot try and understand these "powers", "strengths" or "potencies", we will approach them, not as an ontological reality, but as they relate to the human experience of Creation. 

In this special Pesach episode, Rabbi Joey shares a thoughts on the role of questions and answers, not only as the central aspects of leil ha-seder, but as the primary orientation for a living in a world where faith and doubt coexist.
