Rabbi Tom has moved to New England to prepare for his new role as the rabbi of Congregation Shir Heharim in Brattleboro, Vermont (effective 7/1/10.) He is also serving the region as an interfaith chaplain for Beacon Hospice, New England's largest end-of-life care provider.

ARE WE MOVING FORWARD? YES, WE FINALLY ARE!

In the course of Jewish history, the Hebrew word TIKKUN came to mean "repair" in a cosmic sense, implying that we can repair the world and restore it to the way it was. Now, in light of the physical and social sciences, we can understand "tikkun," not as a regressive return to the way things were but as a progressive evolution toward more enlightened or integral ways of living.

This progressive evolutionary dynamic, hinted at in the Kabbalah, is all too frequently obscured by the pre-scientific ideas used to describe it. From his study and practice of kabbalistic and other mystical traditions over the course of three decades, Rabbi Tom has been able to identify the essential teachings that can move us forward. If we try, on the other hand, to return to the past by following traditionalist and fundamentalist approaches, we waste time, energy and resources we cannot afford. We can only move forward!

Rabbi Tom's authentic spirituality and gentle humor enables couples, friends, families and communities to celebrate life with wisdom, laughter and joy.

Rabbi Tom makes real, in simple ways, the healing power of "tikkun."

As a creative partner in the evolution of Jewish life, music and spirituality, Rabbi Tom is a welcome and welcoming presence at every occasion and in every interaction.
See for yourself!
