Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi 1924-2014

[zalena]

Reb Zalman died today. I met him earlier this year, quite by chance. To see him --- to hear him teach and sing --- was to feel the heart opening. I thought the moment was important enough to note here. How strange to login and find my last post (private) was about him. I feel like I've been trying to find the words for the experience all year.

Here is a link to his obituary:

Here is a link to my last post, which I have now unlocked:
