Kursbeschreibung

The portion of Metzora reminds us to be conscious of our words.  Words truly become "things" and can be used for either good or ill.  The sparks of Light within this lesson can refresh our spirit with renewed confidence to face our own dark sides with compassion.  Eitan guides us to greater freedom and allows us to bring our darkness and shortcomings into the Light where by embracing them, rather than running from them, we can experience true transformation and peace.

Der Zohar-Kurs ist eine wöchentliche Reise, um die Energie und die Herausforderungen zu verstehen, mit denen wir während der Woche konfrontiert werden, und wie wir unser Bewusstsein vertiefen können, um Chaos in unserem Leben zu verhindern.
