Netivot Shalom

In this 4-week men’s shiur, the text-based learning will be from the Netivot Shalom (Paths of Peace) authored by the Slonimer Rebbe (1911-2000)

The text opens with a dive into the Path of Da’at. Loosely translated as “knowledge”, Da’at is tasked with internalising and converting into visceral feelings, that which is understood.
Without Da’at, one may remain detached from, and unmoved by, learned concepts.

The Netivot Shalom teaches that Da’at serves as the foundation to all spiritual growth.

An experiential enhancement of the shiur is a musical component with its purpose being to provide a means for exploring the scope of rhythm particularly, to “feel” the resonance and connection within ourselves and with one another.

In Temple times, the potent power of focussed communal music was the vehicle tasked with revealing and elevating levels of soul consciousness.

Please note the second week will be on the Monday night (Aug 3rd) instead of the Sunday. All other weeks will be on Sunday evening.
