Teshuvah and/versus Self-Acceptance, 2 of 2

from Around the Calendar with Drisha · host Drisha Institute

Teshuvah seems to require both that we transform ourselves into someone new and that we return to who we once were and really are. Looking to a range of classical and modern rabbinic texts, we’ll explore this tension and the ways in which genuine and effectively transformative teshuva requires embracing who we’ve been and who we are in the present. We’ll consider these questions with respect to individuals, communities, and the human world at large.
