SUMMARY:When You Greet Me I Bow
DESCRIPTION:Norman Fischer in Conversation with Jhos Singer\nMonday, August 9  |  7 – 9pm  | on Zoom\n\nTickets\n$10 – Chochmat Members\n$20 – General Public\n\nTickets\n\n30% off Norman’s new book!  All ticket holders will receive a 30% off Shambhala.com discount code for Norman’s book, When You Greet Me I Bow, valid through August 15.\nAbout the event: To kick off our High Holiday fundraising drive and month of Elul special programming, two gifted spiritual teachers, Norman Fischer and Jhos Singer, will be in conversation about Norman’s new book, When You Greet Me I Bow: Notes and Reflections from a Life in Zen.  Come and draw inspiration from these wise spiritual guides. Your generous donation to this event will also raise money for our search for a new spiritual leader to lead Chochmat Halev into the future.\nAbout the book: When You Greet Me I Bow, edited by Chochmat member Cynthia Schrager, spans the entirety of Norman Fischer’s career and is the first collection of his writings on Buddhist philosophy and practice. Broken into four sections–the joy and catastrophe of relationship; thinking, writing, and emptiness; cultural encounters; and social engagement–this book allows us to see the fascinating development of the mind and interests of a gifted writer and a beloved teacher in both Buddhist and Jewish communities. \n\nNorman Fischer is a Zen priest, poet, and translator whose writings, teachings, and commitment to interfaith dialogue have supported and inspired Buddhist, Jewish, and other spiritual practitioners for decades.\nJhos Singer is a dynamic preacher, storyteller, pastoral counselor, and musician. He has a unique ability to translate Torah and Jewish tradition in ways that are accessible, relevant, and compelling.\n\n\nHaving confidence in someone whom we look toward as an example, an inspiration, and coming to trust that person completely–even when they seem not to be cooperating with our ideas about who they should be and how they should behave, and even when they make mistakes–is the path toward deep trust and confidence in ourselves, our true selves, and in life, no matter what it brings.\nNorman Fischer \n
