The Mystery of The Shofar

The Shofar is the ram's horn which is blown on Rosh Hashana and during the month of Elul. The somewhat jolting sound is meant to awaken us from the slumber of life. Shofar comes from the root word Shefer which paradoxically means beautiful. Is it perhaps through the awakening that we rediscover the inner beauty we all possess? In this class, we will explore some depth based on classic and esoteric sources that the Shofar conveys and awakens within us.
