Sacred Aramaic
Why Aramaic? It is the language that Jesus spoke, anything that Jesus (Yeshua in Aramaic) said was in Aramaic. Through the work of Neil Douglas-Klotz, we can experience a fresh, healing, life affirming breath, without the dualism and patriarchy that some of us may have experienced previously. Delving into the meanings, using the words as chants, songs, body prayers, dances becomes a deep life affirming practice. This has been part of our practice since the early 2000's. We will meet in Fattah, in the family room. - with Amina Silk and Arif Lenninger
October 12th - 2PM - 4PM
