Product Description
Towards a Meaning Life is a spiritual road map for living for Jews and non-Jews alike based on the teachings of one of the foremost religious leaders of our time: Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson. Head of the Lubavitcher movement for forty-four years and referred to throughout t.h.e world sinipiy as the Rebbe, Menachem Mendel Schneerson, who died in June 1994, was a sage and a visionary of the highest order. Although the Rebbe s teachings are firmly an- chored in over two thousand years of scholarship, he applies age-old truths to contemporary life, showing us how to prepare ourselves to enter the new millennium. The Rebbe teaches and embodies a distinctly universal message, calling for all humankind to lead productive and virtuous lives, and for unity between all men and women and all nations. No the Rebbes words of wisdom are available in English for the first time. Toward a Meaningful Life gives the modem reader even the most sec- ular a fresh perspective on every aspect of his or her life, whether it is a trivial concern or the most profound matter of the soul. The book gives the Rebbes perspective on the range of lifes cycles, from birth to youth to aging to death; from marriage, love and intimacy, work and fitness, to pain and suffering, education, miracles, science, and state and religion. One learns how to bridge the dichotomy between accelerated technology and decelerated morality; between unprecedented world- wide unity and unparalleled personal disunity. The Rebbe teaches that we now stand at the threshold of a new worldwhere matter and spirit converge and that we are on the verge of entering an age of knowledge and information, using ideas that unite people as opposed to the materialism that divides them. With Towards a Meaningful Life, the reader discovers how each of us is indispensable and bow we all can and must make our unique indelible mark on our common future. As a true leader, the Rebbe leads us on a journey toward personal and universal redemp- lion, toward G-d. Simon Jacobson presents the Rebbes teachings in profound, clear language, guiding each of us toward a meaningful life. For fourteen years Rabbi Simon Jacobson pre- pared the Rebbes public talks for publication. He lives in Brooklyn, New York, and is editor-in-chief of Vaad Hanochos Hatmimim, a foundation dedicated to perpetuating the Rebbes teachings.
