This audiobook delves into the mystical tradition of the Lamed Vav—36 righteous individuals believed to sustain the world through acts of kindness—exploring its origins in Jewish mysticism and its connections to positive psychology. Psychologist Edward Hoffman examines the mythos from its Talmudic roots to modern interpretations, offering guided visualizations and exercises to cultivate awareness of Lamed Vav qualities within ourselves and others. Blending ancient teachings with contemporary insights, it encourages listeners to embody kindness, empathy, and reverence for the world around them.
