Description

In Surrendered-The Sacred Art, Rabbi Rami Shapiro explores what it means to live the surrendered life--a life no longer centered on control and hence no longer at odds with the ordinary suffering of everyday living. Rabbi Rami closely examines the first three steps of Twelve-Step recovery to help us cut through the denial, illusions, and falsehoods that bind us in our fight with addictions of all kinds. He draws upon his half-century engagement with Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, and Islam, as well as his own and other people's struggles in Twelve-Step recovery, to guide us in our awakening to reality's freedom and the path to living joyously and well.
