- Summary:
- Praying, in the culture of the West, is considered "religious" by definition, aimed at a divine enity in which one has faith. In Judaism, which is a culture closer to the eastern than the western world, prayer takes on different nuances.The verb "to pray" in Hebrew literally means "self-guiding" and the choice of liturgical texts was made by the Masters in order to build a path of reflection, contemplation and contraction of individual and collective identity. Through this journey people were able to "open their lips" an expression of pslams which evokes the possibility of transcending the conditionings that make creatures far from fully realizing their potential. This book speaks to the heart of the reader and has the merit of helping them along the roads of life through the different paths of prayer.
