Menachem Mendl Schneerson; Faitel Levin:
Heaven on Earth : Reflections on the Theology of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Lubavitcher Rebbe - used book

ISBN: 0826604889

ID: 6035125

In Heaven on Earth, Rabbi Faitel Levin draws on the writings of the Lubavitch movement’s late leader Rabbi Menachem M. Schnneerson to reframe divergent expressions as the product of one coherent, revolutionary theology.Through a concept termed "dirah betachtonim" (lit. "A dwelling place in the lower realms"), Rabbi Levin explains how physicality is the essence of G-d. Unlike previous Jewish approaches to G-d, dirah betachtonim brings G-d into the here and now without having to transcend physical limitations. "The physical is actually the essence of G-d", writes Rabbi Levin "not because the physical serves as a spring board for the spiritual, nor because one learns to find some redeeming feature, some transcendent dimension in the physical. No, physicality itself provides the ultimate mystical encounter."Countering centuries of religious thought, Heaven on Earth presents a system where the corporeal body is seen not as an enemy, but a friend. By summarizing Jewish sources through a careful analysis of material buried within the Talmud, kabbalah, and early Chassidic teachings, Rabbi Levin demonstrates that the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s approach truly represents a fundamental shift in emphasis. It moves beyond the kabbalistic mystical worlds that chart the Godhead with triangles and diagrams. Instead, the reader is brought into a vision where true accomplishment lies in one’s most worldly actions.Other topics discussed are how dirah betachtonim coincides with Jewish observ judaism,kabbalah,religion and spirituality,sacred writings,theology Judaism, Kehot Publication Society
