A “whole” new look at holiness.
 
Today, everyone’s looking for “spirituality.” Yet Jewish spirituality, unlike other beliefs or fads, does not offer out-of-body experiences, magical remedies, or momentary “highs.”
 
In A Wholly Life: Spiritual Integration of Mind, Body, and Soul, Dr. Moshe Kaplan has compiled a fascinating collection of essays which explore the many facets of Jewish spirituality by some of today’s great Jewish thinkers. Topics include Rabbi Dr. Dovid Gottlieb’s “A Spiritual Mind,” Rabbi Berel Wein’s “The Jew in the Land of Plenty,” Rabbi Dr. Meir Triebitz’s “Man and Eternity,” and Yaakov Levinson’s “Nutrition: An Elevated Meal,” to name a few.
 
In A Wholly Life Dr. Kaplan gives us a tapestry of topics which illustrate the multiple facets that make up a good, complete Jewish life. These thought-provoking essays assert how Judaism empowers the individual to use all of the gifts that God has given him—mind, body, and soul—to achieve total integration and true spirituality. Jewish spirituality is the pursuit of holiness, using the Torah as a guide. Only through employing all of these can one achieve real spirituality — in order to transform, elevate, and sanctify every aspect of one’s life.
 
In a world where everyone is searching for holiness and fulfillment in their everyday and sometimes mundane lives, you don’t have to look to the mountain to reach your spiritual goals.
A Wholly Life shows us how to become spiritually integrated and holy individuals so that we can be worthy of, and capable of, reaching great spiritual heights.
