Since the publication of the Shulchan Aruch in the 16th century, halachists have relied more on proof texts and less on experience. As a result, rabbis speak mostly to the already committed while. for most, halachah is irrelevant and/or oppressive.
Come and learn a new/old approach to the halachic process, a path which connects the smallest details of our lives to the revelation of our collective purpose in the Sinai desert and the vision of a redeemed world toward which we aim. We’ll look at the halachic process prior to modernity and into our current, paradigm-shifting reality We will then apply what Reb Zalman Schachter-Shalomi called the Psycho-Halachic process (now called Integral Halachah) to one current issue as we strive to remain both “backwards compatible” and present to this moment.
