Jewish Ideas to Change the World

Ms. Estelle Frankel presents her lecture "The Wisdom of Not Knowing" before an audience at Temple Solel (www.templesolel.org/) in Paradise Valley, AZ.

ABOUT THIS LECTURE: Jewish mystics teach that God, the Torah, and the human soul are each comprised of a known (nigleh) and a vastly greater unknown (nistar) and unknowable dimension. As we inquire into each of these domains, we begin to realize the impossibility of ever wrapping our minds around these infinite mysteries. Yet, it is through our inquiry into the unknown that we grow our souls. In this seminar, we will study Jewish spiritual teachings on the wisdom of “not knowing” and explore how the conscious practice of “unknowing” can serve as a vital force for growth, insight and creative inspiration in our lives.
