From Moses to Leonard Cohen: The unexpected dilemma at the heart of Jewish prayer Leonard Cohen called If It Be Your Will “a sort of a prayer.” In this episode of Madlik Disruptive Torah, Geoffrey Stern and Rabbi Adam Mintz uncover just how deeply Jewish that prayer really is. Drawing on the words of Moses in Ha'azinu, the Psalms of David, the prayer of Hannah, and rabbinic debates in the Talmud and Maimonides' Guide for the Perplexed, we explore how Cohen's haunting lyrics echo one of the most radical ideas in Jewish liturgy: that prayer itself requires God's permission. From whispered lips to audacious praise, from silence as the highest form of worship to the chutzpah of demanding forgiveness, this episode connects the High Holidays' most prayer-rich moments to Cohen's timeless song. Was Cohen consciously channeling biblical and rabbinic texts he knew from childhood? We think the evidence is striking. Join us as we show how If It Be Your Will isn't just a song—it's the continuation of a 3,000-year-old Jewish wrestling match with the meaning of prayer. Key Takeaways The Audacity of Prayer: We examine the chutzpah of addressing God and the need for "permission" to pray. Silent Revolution: Hannah's innovation of praying silently and its impact on Jewish prayer traditions. Words Matter: The power and peril of language in prayer, and why sometimes silence speaks loudest. Timestamps [00:00:00] Opening reflection on Yom Kippur and the nature of prayer. [00:02:00] Deuteronomy 32—Moses asking permission to speak. [00:04:00] Psalms as a source: prayer from both mouth and heart. [00:06:00] Transition from singular to plural in liturgy. [00:10:00] Hannah's silent prayer as a model for Jewish prayer. [00:13:00] Out loud vs. silent prayer; Shema as an exception. [00:17:00] Can one pray all day? Talmudic debate. [00:20:00] Concluding prayers about words and their power. [00:23:00] The audacity of praising God—permission to pray. [00:28:00] Leonard Cohen's “If It Be Your Will” as modern midrash.

Teaser:I've been having a lot of conversations with APs and other leaders recently and one of the common themes is how overwhelming the work is right now and how hard it can be to invest in self-care. Mara and I discussed some self-care strategies a couple weeks ago in episode 271. One thing we did not talk about is how to unplug from the day so your time away form work is… well, time away from work. We are going to get technical and discuss specific strategies and habits you can adopt to increase the likelihood that you can leave your work behind. There are a couple caveats to this: For many of you, there are job responsibilities you have in the evening (subs and buses) – and we will look at how to work from home in the healthiest way possible next week. The other caveat is these techniques are helpful but they are not a panacea. We'll touch a bit more on that as we dive into the show.Sponsor Spot 1:I'd like to thank Kaleidoscope Adventures for sponsoring today's show.

(wish her well at mara@frederickbuskey.com or marabuskeyllc@gmail.com)Key Points Part 1Let's not sugar coat things – it's hard right nowThings probably aren't going to get much better in the near futureBurnout is an organizational problem (See also Helen Kelly in episodes 141 and 182)That said, there are things we can do to make it “suck less.”Today: transition home, next week: how to protect home time when you must work from homeOpening with encouragement to do 5mc (it is about reclaiming purpose and being able to say, today, I moved my school forward)Simple and fastGets you critical insightsBuilds relationshipsBuilds teacher capacitySponsor Spot 2:I want to thank IXL for sponsoring this podcast…Everyone talks about the power of data-driven instruction.

If you keep working the way you are now, and your self-care habits remain the same, what word(s) pop into your head?If you were out for three months, what would happen at work?A leading cause of fatigue and burnout is the inability to leave your work at work. If you want to be successful - as a leader and a person/family member/friend - you must figure out how to leave your work behind. Yes, this is easier said than done (speaking from experience) but we can develop some practices to help.Key components:Concluding the work dayTransitioning to homeEntering home modeConcluding the work dayReflect on the day, including identifying:Regrets and missed opportunitiesWins and celebrationsIf there is a serious issue that will be difficult to let go of, journal about it and do as much processing as you can. When you close the journal, close your mind. Also, do your journaling in a personal notebook you take home with you, not on a work-owned computer. When the issue intrudes on your thoughts at home, acknowledge and let it go.Identify the three most important priorities for the next day and time block them on your calendar.Transitioning to homeBe intentional about what you do with the trip home.You can use this as reflection time or professional learning (podcasts), but that undermines your transition. It is better to listen to professional podcasts on the way to work (that's why we release at 6 am instead of 3 pm) and listen to music or something that grounds you in your non-professional life on your way home.Entering Home ModeAs soon as you get home, change into casual non-work clothesCreate a specific routine to signal yourself that you are home, such as:Spend time checking in with a loved one (including pets)Imbibe your favorite food or beverage and do something relaxingExercise (consider stopping at a park to walk on your way home – even for five minutes. One step – literally- better than nothing; drive straight to the gym, do not pass Go, do not collect $200

In this episode I am once again joined by Leigh Brasington, Buddhist meditation teacher and author of ‘Right Concentration, A Practical Guide to the Jhanas'. In this episode we had planned to discuss Leigh's latest book, entitled “On The Way To The Far Shore”. Instead Leigh spontaneously began to explore the theme of Buddhism and politics and so we decided to go deeper into his ideas. Leigh shares his take on the world situation and reveals the impact of his childhood upbringing and college education on the development of his own political views. Leigh discusses whether or not Buddhist spiritual development necessarily leads to left wing politics, reflects on the role of compassion and interdependence in the left-right divide, and considers whether or not past Buddhist masters who held different political views to his own lacked enlightenment. Leigh also warns about the dangers of clinging to fixed views, gives advice for how meditators should relate to politics, and explains why he believes political engagement is a natural result of the spiritual path. This episode is a spontaneous exploration of Leigh's ideas about Buddhism and politics in the spirit of open discourse and is not intended to represent my own views or the stance of this podcast. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep326-enlightened-politics-leigh-brasington Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics Include: 00:00 - Intro 01:18 - Complexity and inequality 02:52 - Global warming 03:28 - Visiting mission fields in Mexico 05:13 - Overpopulation 06:02 - What motivates Leigh's political engagement? 08:24 - Practice and politics 11:03 - Should Buddhists be politically engaged? 16:49 - Dependent origination leads to politics 22:21 - Diverse politics of past Buddhist masters 24:31 - Evolution of Leigh's political views 28:40 - How Leigh relates to those who hold different political views 32:19 - Why did past Buddhist masters hold different views to Leigh's? 35:21 - Spiritual insight leads to left wing positions 40:54 - How does Leigh explain past Buddhist masters who have held conservative views? 47:58 - Does it give Leigh pause to claim his political views are the most enlightened? 54:11 - Leigh comments on the awakening of past masters who held different political views to his own 56:34 - Leigh refines his position 57:44 - What if Leigh is wrong? 59:16 - Advice for how to relate to politics as a spiritual practitioner 01:02:27 - New sutta index 01:06:09 - Why discuss controversial topics? 01:08:43 - Concluding remarks … Previous episodes with Leigh Brasington: - https://www.guruviking.com/search?q=brasington To find our more about Leigh Brasington visit: - http://www.leighb.com/ For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - https://www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi' by Steve James

De succesvolle Olympische Podcast serie is nu alweer toe aan de vijfde aflevering. Vanaf aflevering 7 zullen ook de (voormalige en toekomstige) olympische sporters zelf deelnemen aan onze afleveringen. This podcast episode elucidates the intriguing parallels between the Netherlands and the Los Angeles area, especially in light of the preparations for the 2028 Olympic Games. We delve into the economic and demographic similarities, noting that both regions boast comparable gross national products and populations, each hovering around 18 to 19 million inhabitants. Furthermore, we examine the substantial urban challenges faced by both territories, such as housing shortages and climate-related issues, which serve to underscore their shared dilemmas. Additionally, we reflect on historical performances of Dutch hockey teams in the Olympics, particularly the nuances of past successes and failures, drawing connections to the aspirations for the upcoming Olympic events. Through this discourse, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of global sporting cultures and their implications for future competitions.The podcast episode provides a detailed exploration of the preparatory measures being undertaken by the Dutch Olympic Committee as it gears up for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. Central to the discussion is the engagement of various Dutch enterprises in the establishment of a Holland Village, which seeks to promote Dutch culture and commerce during the Games. The speakers draw intriguing comparisons between the Netherlands and the Los Angeles region, noting their shared geographical features and urban challenges. Both regions are situated along the western coast, possess similar economic outputs, and face significant urban issues such as housing shortages and climate change management. This comparative analysis serves not only to highlight the collaborative potential between the two regions but also to underscore the importance of strategic partnerships as the Olympics approach.In a reflective segment, the conversation shifts to the historical context of Dutch hockey within the Olympic framework, specifically focusing on the 1984 Games held in Los Angeles. The speakers recount the experiences of the Dutch men's hockey team, which boasted a roster of esteemed players yet ultimately fell short of expectations. Through a critical examination of their performance, the discussion reveals the complexities of competitive sports and the high stakes involved in Olympic competitions. The narrative serves as a reminder of the unpredictability of sports, particularly in high-pressure environments, and highlights the lessons learned that can inform the aspirations of future Dutch teams as they prepare for the upcoming Olympic events.Concluding the episode, the speakers reflect on the advancements in broadcasting technology that have transformed the viewing experience of Olympic events. They contrast the limited media representation of the 1984 Games with today's capabilities, which allow audiences to engage with multiple events concurrently. This evolution illustrates a significant shift towards inclusivity in sports broadcasting, enhancing the accessibility of Olympic events for a diverse audience. The discussion wraps up with a forward-looking perspective on the potential for sustainable practices to be integrated into the planning of the 2028 Olympics, emphasizing the necessity of creating a legacy that not only celebrates athletic excellence but also prioritizes environmental stewardship.Takeaways: This episode discusses the similarities between the Netherlands and Los Angeles, particularly in terms of economic factors and geographical attributes.

The sermon explores the significance of the Lord's Prayer, examining its presentation in both Matthew and Luke to highlight the importance of confident prayer. It emphasizes that while physical needs and spiritual struggles are real, true faith lies in trusting God's will and recognizing that unanswered prayers can ultimately serve His glory. Textual criticism is discussed to explain the differing versions of the prayer, ultimately reinforcing the belief that God preserves His Word and that prayer should conclude with a declaration of faith and a commitment to God's sovereignty, acknowledging that His kingdom, power, and glory are paramount. 1.

The words of a cherished chorus declare, 'To be like Jesus is my plea.' In this lesson, Brother Singh challenges us to turn those words from a simple refrain into a godly pursuit. In Acts 16, Luke records how Paul saw a vision of a man of Macedonia pleading, 'Come over and help us.' Concluding that this was God's call, Paul and his companions immediately set out to preach the gospel there. In the same way, to be like Jesus is to respond without hesitation to the Father's call.

In this lecture, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera explores the unparalleled eloquence of the Qur'an and its enduring impact on hearts, minds, and civilizations. He begins by introducing the concept of balāghah (eloquence) in the Arabic tradition, explaining how the Qur'an's language transcends ordinary speech, poetry, and prose. Unlike human expression, the Qur'an's style seamlessly combines clarity, depth, rhythm, and beauty in a way that captivates both experts in rhetoric and ordinary listeners. Dr. Mangera highlights how the Qur'an challenged the master poets and linguists of Arabia—renowned for their mastery of language—yet none were able to produce anything comparable. He illustrates this through examples of Qur'anic verses where a few words carry layers of meaning, evoke powerful imagery, and convey profound guidance. The lecture also emphasizes the Qur'an's timelessness: while human literature fades with changing tastes and eras, the Qur'an continues to resonate across languages and cultures. Its eloquence is not merely aesthetic; it is purposeful, moving hearts toward reflection, humility, and transformation. Concluding his talk, Dr. Mangera reminds the audience that the Qur'an's eloquence is one of its living miracles, a divine sign that invites believers and skeptics alike to engage with its words and witness for themselves the power of revelation.

 639. Part 2 of our interview with Lori Peek about her book, The Continuing Storm, which she wrote with Kai Erikson. More than fifteen years later, Hurricane Katrina maintains a strong grip on the American imagination. The reason is not simply that Katrina was an event of enormous scale. But, quite apart from its lethality and destructiveness, Katrina retains a place in living memory because it is one of the most telling disasters in our recent national experience, revealing important truths about our society and ourselves. The Continuing Storm reflects upon what we have learned about Katrina and about America.Kai Erikson and Lori Peek expand our view of the disaster by assessing its ongoing impact on individual lives and across the wide-ranging geographies where displaced New Orleanians landed after the storm. Such an expanded view, the authors argue, is critical for understanding the human costs of catastrophe across time and space. Concluding with a broader examination of disasters in the years since Katrina—including COVID-19— The Continuing Storm is a sobering meditation on the duration of a catastrophe that continues to exact steep costs in human suffering.

"The Hurricane" by William Cullen Bryant (November 3, 1794 – June 12, 1878) was an American romantic poet, journalist, and long-time editor of the New York Evening Post. Born in Massachusetts, in 1825, Bryant relocated to New York City, where he became an editor of two major newspapers. He also emerged as one of the most significant poets in early literary America and has been grouped among the fireside poets for his accessible and popular poetry. "Lord of the winds! I feel thee nigh,     I know thy breath in the burning sky!     And I wait, with a thrill in every vein,     For the coming of the hurricane! And lo! on the wing of the heavy gales,     Through the boundless arch of heaven he sails;     Silent and slow, and terribly strong,     The mighty shadow is borne along,     Like the dark eternity to come;" This week in Louisiana history.
