Links are also below.


Join Dr. Barak Gale (Co-Author of first COEJL Tu B’Shevat Haggadah), on a journey through the Four Worlds, exploring Assiyeh with the physical/chemical/geological reality, Yetzirah with wide range of emotions such as fear/anger/sadness/courage/trust/joy, Briyah with creative mind/innovation/genius and not to be ignored “little” solutions, and Atzilut with Spirit/Pure Love/Pure Compassion/Pure Loving Kindness.  


Rav Kook, the mystic, wrote a century ago that “the old will be made new, and the new made holy.” Join me in renewing the Kabbalists’ Tu B’Shevat ritual, making it contemporary, making it holy.  And, as with any Seder, we’ll share some song and stories. Barak Gale is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

New “Tu BiShevat Climate Journey Haggadah 2022”  available at this link.  If possible, please have handy or on separate device, during Session.
