"Rami Shapiro's conclusion to this book is the first and last thing that needs to be said about the Bible. Stephen Hawking wrote a Theory of Everything. Ken Wilber wrote a Brief History of Everything. And now Rami has written on the Meaning of Everything with his signature wink. This book is a joy!" -- Gordon Peerman, Episcopal priest, author of Blessed Relief: What Christians Can Learn from Buddhists about Suffering "Every book that holy rascal Rami Shapiro writes is a book about love, but in this luminous offering he distills the essence of biblical literature to an elixir that awakens a direct experience of love itself. By lifting the Bible out of the quagmire of literal interpretation and returning it to our hands and hearts, Rabbi Rami grants us access to our own love language, and shows us the way to love each other back into wholeness." -- Mirabai Starr, author of God of Love and Ordinary Mysticism Blurbs for the author's last book: "A great way to deepen your spiritual life is to take a deep dive into a tradition other than your own--especially if you have a competent guide, and Rabbi Rami is an extraordinary guide. Not into Zen? Not a Jew? Not a problem.
Anyone on any path will benefit enormously from this profoundly illuminating book." -- Philip Goldberg, author of American Veda "I say every time Rabbi Rami writes a new book that he is a master teacher full of love, wisdom and a reverent irreverence that illuminates both mind and heart." -- Dr. Joan Borysenko, New York Times best-selling author of Pocketful of Miracles "I have been a fan of Rami Shapiro's for over three decades and his gifts to the world are considerable. Judaism Without Tribalism is quite possibly the jewel in his crown, a brilliant culmination of his work to repair and return us to the profound mystical depths of the ancient Jewish tradition. Crisp, cogent, utterly lucid, this book is, as its title suggests, a blessed relief for all true seekers." -- Rabbi Tirzah Firestone, PhD, author of Wounds into Wisdom.
