Elul Message from Rabbi Laura Geller
|
"I’m spending the last days of summer cleaning out my garage...This project captures the spiritual work of transformation central to the month of Elul, which begins this Friday night. The work of Elul is to go through all the 'stuff' of our lives, to look at all we carry around with us, and to decide what we should save, what we need to get rid of, and what new energy, new spaciousness, we need to bring into our lives in order to be ready for a New Year and a new beginning."
