In this special class we explore the deep spiritual meaning of Amalek. Far beyond a historical enemy, Amalek represents a cosmic energy of radical doubt ( safek ) that attacks us right before we reach our spiritual destinations or make major life decisions. Join us as we uncover how to fight the "Amalek within" by embracing our own incompleteness. We'll dive into profound Kabbalistic concepts and stunning Gematria to reveal how faith inherently coexists with doubt. Discover how the five generations—from Abraham to Amalek—represent five existential "doubts" or forms of "halfness," and learn how to transform self-destructive doubt into a beautiful engine for continuous spiritual growth.
