Zwecker: Jewish Meditation (2010)

Tal Moshe Zwecker (a Chabad rabbi) published the Kindle edition of his ” Jewish Meditation – Hisbodedus the lost path of secluded meditation” last week. It is a 34 pages long. Here is his description:

A collection of translations from primary sources on Jewish Meditation, especially relating to the prophetic and mussar schools. Beginning with Sefer HaMaspik Le’Ovdei Hashem by Rabbi Abraham Maimonides the famous son of Rambam, this book presents authentic traditional sources from the Tanakch, the classic commentaries, the mussar school and the kabbalists about Hitbodedut or secluded meditation. This is not an instructional guide but a collection and minor analysis of these texts to guide someone who has a genuine interest in exploring the primary authentic texts of the Jewish tradition on Hisbodedus of the body and of the mind. Questions answered and explored include: What is Hisbodedus? Who practiced it and how? What are the different forms of Hisbodedus?
