Judaism Unbound Episode 486: Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness III - Tehora Hee (Inviolable Goodness), with Gemara
In moments of polarization, the wisdom of Tehora Hee — the recognition of inviolable goodness in all people—can be a revolutionary tool. In this episode of Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness, featured on Judaism Unbound’s feed with bonus “Gemara” (commentary), Jericho Vincent talks about seventy faces, checking Biblical assumptions, Tehora hee (“It is pure”), pre-prayer tests, two villains from one of their own spiritual wildernesses, Anne Frank, and a practice for bringing Miriam’s living Torah into our own lives.
[1] We are proud to introduce the 3rd podcast in the Judaism Unbound family of podcasts: Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness, hosted by Jericho Vincent. Each episode of this limited series delves into a different story of our ancestor Miriam, illuminating her mystical teachings and offering practical tools for navigating and flourishing in personal or political spiritual wildernesses. Survival Guide for a Spiritual Wilderness charts a radical, fresh Jewish path for its listeners and the world. This episode explores the Jewish mystical teaching of Chakeh-Mah, the ability to “wait for what.”
