Know Your Soul - Part 24
“The Soul of Passover”
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Sunday, April 6, 2025

The Jewish year revolves around two powerful seasons: Tishrei and Nissan.

Tishrei brings the heavyweight trio—Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot. Nissan is all about Passover. At first glance, the holidays might seem similar: we pray, we celebrate, we eat (well, for most of them). But there’s a deeper current running through them—one that changes everything.

Kabbalah teaches that Tishrei is all about an “awakening from below,” our effort to reach upward. Nissan, on the other hand, is an “awakening from Above,” a divine spark that lifts us. These opposite energies shape not just the holidays, but how we show up for them.

In this session of Kabbalah Café we journey through the Jewish calendar and unlock its spiritual rhythm. The insights will transform how you experience every holiday—starting with the upcoming holiday of Passover, the Festival of Freedom.

“Paradox Busters”
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Sunday, April 27, 2025

The Kabbalists offer us a vision of creation that’s full of tension and mystery. They teach that G-d’s infinite light is so pure, so boundless, that it leaves no room for anything else. In that state, creation is impossible. And so, the light is drawn back, concealed. Space is made for a world to exist.

But then they tell us something even more astonishing: that the ultimate purpose of it all is for G-d’s own Essence -- the very Infinity that seemed too vast to allow creation -- to dwell within creation. Not above it, not outside it, but inside its most limited corners.

So how does the Infinite enter the finite? How does the impossible become the goal?

That’s where we come in. Human beings, with the capacity to do something no angel can do: reach beyond ourselves. Transform. Return. Through the fierce, focused strength of teshuvah, we bridge what logic says can’t be bridged. We don’t just navigate the paradox -- we embody it.

In this session  of Kabbalah Café we explore the impossible dream of G-d, and discover how we carry the key to making it real.

“The Biggest Question”
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Sunday, May 4, 2025

It’s the oldest question in the book: Why are we here?

Not because we have somewhere else to be -- this universe is all we’ve ever known. But still, the question echoes. Why this world? Why us?

The Kabbalists are obsessed with this question. For them, it's not just philosophical, it's real. It's alive and dynamic. It opens doors to purpose, to mission, to the very heart of existence.

And while they offer many answers -- some poetic, some logical, some otherworldly -- only one gets the title of the "true" answer. And it’s the wildest one of all. Of course it is. These are Jewish mystics, after all.

In this session of Kabbalah Café we dive into the deepest of deep questions, and discover an answer that just might change how you see everything.
