Welcome to TORAH-VEDA

The mission of Torah-Veda is to provide an avenue for the awakening, nurturance and expression of spirituality, with a focus on the nondual mystical traditions of Torah/Kabalah and Veda/Vedanta. We seek the common threads that exist between these and various other spiritual and mystical traditions, exploring the possibilities for a new synthesis relevant to the spiritual needs of today.

Torah and Veda are two ancient sources of spirituality still vibrant today. Torah is conveyed through the sacred language of Hebrew and Veda is conveyed through the sacred language of Sanskrit. The focus here is on meditation, mysticism, philosophy, psychology and the underlying spirituality that has been incorporated into religions, and not as much on the religions themselves. Your comments and posts are welcome.
