“Every ancient tradition has a healing art… our ancient healing art is the Hebrew calendar — our sacred time.”
— Bluth
How can the passage of time help us strengthen our communities and faith, so we become happier and more fulfilled?
Today’s episode is an introduction to Sacred Time, a new podcast from Living Jewishly hosted by Bluth and Ganga Devi.
Released each month on the full moon, Sacred Time explores the healing art and wisdom of the Hebrew calendar as it relates to our daily lives.
Our path through the Shabbats, new moons and holidays guides us through a process of healing and growth. This journey inspires us, individually and as a community, to better ourselves and gain a fuller understanding of our faith.
Through Sacred Time, we honour the cycle of the calendar, letting the months themselves act as teachers and shape our discussions. The Kabbalistic symbols associated with each month will the rich and thoughtful discussions we’ll have during each episode.
Sacred Time is for listeners at all points in the faith journey — in fact, you don’t even need to be Jewish. Its goal? To be a source of nourishment for the heart, mind and body.
“Our intention for this podcast is that it be rooted in tradition, blossoming into relevance in the present moment, and lead us all into the ripening of a beautiful Jewish future.”
— Ganga Devi
