Few commandments are as challenging as prayer. The tensions between human limitations and God's infinity, self-assertion and self-submission, structure and spontaneity, hope and surrender, individual expression and collective experience make tefilla one of the most difficult aspects of Jewish life. Holistic Prayer untangles the paradoxes of tefilla, revealing the spiritual journey behind the ritual. In his moving and highly personal approach, Rabbi Avraham (Avi) Weiss presents a word-by-word explication of the liturgy, offers a variety of techniques for reaching kavana, and explores the role of prayer within individual and communal spiritual life.
