These Torah classes are co-sponsored by the Gal Einai Inner Torah Institue. Please tell your friends.
The Divine Law of Attraction
Mondays 10:15 AM for Women
423 N Fuller Ave
The Law of Attraction, popularly known from a recent best seller “The Secret” posits that there is a spiritual law engraved in nature, as precise as any other law of nature, which ‘magnetically’ attracts what we believe, will and ask for into our lives. This Law of Attraction, when mastered properly, attracts blessing into every aspect of our being and transforms our lives.
Is this true? What do Chassidus and Kabbalah teach about the Law of Attraction? Learn about the source of the Law of Attraction as it appears in its origin in the Torah.
Some of the topics discussed are: Can we influence reality? A description of the inner workings of the mind, the power of your thoughts and the process whereby one can influence reality. How do our efforts coincide with Divine Providence and Mazal?
This class will also serve as a review course from a seminar on this topic by Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh offered October 21-26 2007.
The Monday Morning classes will begin first week in November. The classes are:
9:00 a.m. Dance with Sara Tanz ($7)
10:15 a.m. The Divine Law of Attraction with Yehudit Eichenblatt Co sponsored by Gal Einai Inner Torah Institute.

Too many events are missed due to not having seen a flyer in time or because an event happened on the other side of town or because notification got out too late.
