It is possible to infuse every moment of life with meaning-from the routine act to the once-in-a-lifetime situation-and this first-of-its-kind introduction to Martin Buber's I-Thou shows you how. Drawing on Jewish tradition, the science of human behavior, Buber's ideas and the Hasidic stories that he loved, Rabbi Dennis Ross illuminates a theology of relationships in easy-to-understand, accessible language. You will clearly see how to use the principles of I-Thou to create new answers to critical issues in life, such as: How do I react to others in times of stress? How do I relate to strangers? How can I take full advantage of the time I have to spend with my loved ones? By unlocking the depths in Buber's concepts for spiritual growth, Ross supplies you with the tools you need to communicate better, love more completely, and find the sacred in everyday life. From the Author:I wrote God in Our Relationships to explain Martin Buber s ideas in the language of day-to-day conversation. Buber, like other great thinkers of the day, was proud of his ability to describe simple things in very poetic, even complicated language. When Buber moved to Israel in 1938, someone asked him if he would do any writing in Hebrew. He said that he did not know the Hebrew language well enough to obscure his ideas in it. So for many years, his outlook on our relationships, like a locked-away sweet secret, remained hidden in the college classroom and seminary text book. I hope that the stories and language of God in Our Relationships leads you to the great spiritual potential in what Martin Buber called the I-Thou relationship.
