Love in the Bible with Rabbi Rami Shapiro

Rabbi Rami Shapiro is our returning champion. This is his third appearance on Spirit Matters (fourth if you count the time he interviewed me about Karmic Relief). Rami is a self-proclaimed “Jewish practitioner of perennial wisdom.” He was ordained by Hebrew Union College and earned a Ph.D. in religion from Union Graduate School. He’s the co-director of the One River Foundation, writes the column “Roadside Assistance for the Spiritual Traveler” for Spirituality and Health magazine. And he’s written more than 40 books on religion and spirituality. They include: Holy Rascals – Advice for Spiritual Revolutionaries; The Tao of Solomon (which is about Ecclesiastes); Judaism Without Tribalism; and Zen Mind, Jewish Mind. And now he has another book to discuss with us: Love and the Bible: And the Meaning of Everything. We spoke about that book, about the place of love in our spiritual lives, about love, sex, and relationality in all mystical traditions ... and more.
