Brenda Shoshanna, Ph.D.
Dear Librarian, As a psychologist, long term Zen practitioner and practicing Jew, I have seen how Zen and Jewish practice hold the keys to understanding and handling the primal questions that drive us. Together, these practices enrich one another, and can heal our lives. For the millions of Jews looking for a spiritual approach to Judaism, for Zen practitioners who wish deeper relationships, and for those who seek true fulfillment, JEWISH DHARMA, by award-winning author Dr Brenda Shoshanna, is a guide to the authentic practice of Judaism and Zen. Each chapter deals with different life concerns, such as loneliness, relationships, marriage, family, and healing suffering, with guidelines and exercises included. A Jewish heart is warm, devoted to family and friends; a Zen eye is fresh, direct, and spontaneous. These two practices are like two wings of a bird: both are needed to be able to fly.
