Judaism recognizes the profound duality in being human: the ego vs. our Divine Essence. How do we overcome ego and choose our Divine Essence? To do that, you first have to become aware of your divine essence. But if you look for it, you won’t be able to find it. The trick is to look for the ego instead, because that which is aware of the ego, otherwise known as awareness, that awareness IS the divine essence. That’s why meditation works. How do you do it?

We tend to think of spirituality as just another thing on the to do list, like exercise or doing the laundry. And this CAN be helpful if it gets you to make meditation part of your routine. But when you’re actually meditating, you’re not just working on some aspect of your being, like your muscles or your mind; you’re getting to the root of the matter. When you clear away all the content of your life, what’s left? Who are you really, behind all the stuff going on your life, which really means behind all the stuff going on your mind. We’ll explore this through the Torah portion, Parshat Chayei Sara on this episode of the Torah of Awakening Jewish meditation podcast with Rabbi Brian Yosef Schachter-Brooks.

Spiritual awakening means transcending the ordinary problems, conflicts, and emotional dramas of life through an inner shift, whereby we disidentify from the "Me" made out of thoughts and feelings, or "ego," and know ourselves as the field of awareness at the ground all of experience – open, spacious, and free. You can do this by "welcoming" everything arising in your experience, moment to moment. This is the practice of the Hebrew letter ב BET, and we explore it through the Torah portion, Parshat Va’eira, followed by a guided meditation.
