About 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.
About 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.
