he question is, "Who are
you?" And the Shul, a West
Bloomfield spiritual center, is
offering a 41/2-hour search
for the answer.
The seminar, co-sponsored by the
Jewish
Community
Center of
Metropolitan
Detroit, will be •
held noon
Sunday; June 27,
at the D. Dan &
Betty Kahn JCC
in West
Bloomfield. With
Rabbi Yehuda
discussions and
Sherntov
exercises dealing
with issues of
spirituality and God, the seminar aims
to help deepen spiritual awareness and
enrich everyday life, through the ancient
teachings of Kabbala (Jewish mysticism).
The seminar presents life-issues as
steps of a mountain to climb. With a
physical display of a mountain, partici-
pants look for answers to spiritual mean-
ing and purpose by metaphorically
climbing the mountain. Steps in the
climb to the top correspond to five levels
of the soul.
Participants become part of the
teaching process, as they interact in role-
playing activities and games.
Concluding the seminar is a medita-
tion session, giving participants an
opportunity to concentrate on applying
the newfound knowledge to their own
lives and to the people in them.
The Sind's objective is to make
Judaism more accessible and relevant to
Jews at all levels, offering Shabbat ser-
vices, holiday workshops and classes for
men, women and children.
Chasidic Rabbi Yehuda Shemtov of
Yardley, Pa., who has spent more than
20 years researching and studying Jewish
spirituality, will present the seminar.
Striving to reach out by teaching Torah
to Jews from all and no religious back-
grounds, he has traveled with his semi-
nar throughout the country.
For information on the seminar, call
Tay Shemtov, program director of the
Shul at (877) INWARD-6 or access

A charge of $50 will include the sem-
inar, text, continuing lecture series, addi-
tional reading material and access to a
members-only Web site. fl
