Kumi Lach rayati yafati, u’l’chi lach

Arise my friend, oh beautiful one,
go to yourself… (Song of Songs 2:10)

What if every relationship could be an opportunity for us to call each other into the realization of our full potential?

What would it mean to let our gaze penetrate the façade of another and see through to reveal a glimmer of the core, authentic Divine essence; thereby sending that other to her truth. And, what would it mean to receive the gaze of the world as a force of sending, to respond to each and every being by rising up into our full stature and beauty as we take the journey to the center of our being, the place where self and other meet?
