Yitzhak Buxbaum
Nextbook published an interview yesterday with Yitzhak Buxbaum. He talks about his atheist phase in college and he shifted towards religion and mysticism, his relation to Judaism and how his gigantic book on “Jewish Spiritual Practices” was born. The interview is a good combination of details about his background, life story and inner development.
