This is a very important book. In Conscious Community, Rabbi Kalonymus Kalman Shapira, the great and brave Rebbe of the Warsaw Ghetto, provides the answers many Jews have been looking for in other meditative traditions. Here is detailed guidance from one of the last great European Hasidic masters on Jewish mindfulness, from day to day and from moment to moment. 'Any time we feel deeply,' Rabbi Shapira writes here, 'we are dealing with the soul.' Who cannot feel deeply upon reading this spiritual guidebook, rescued from the ashes of the Holocaust? Who cannot feel deeply grateful to Andrea Cohen-Kiener for passing on to English readers this blessing to the Jewish soul?
