With the recent attack on Israel by Hamas and the horrors of war spread throughout the media, it might help to remember that Islam and Judaism pray to the same God. Judaism traditionally teaches that one connects with God through following the commandments, or the mitzvot. 
In his new book, Transcendental Judaism: Enlivening the Eternal Within to Uplift Ourselves and Our World, David Lieberman writes that we can also experience the oneness of God through an inward journey, and hear that “still small voice.”  The goal, David says, is to internalize this sense of the divine and to live our lives connected to the one God.  Yes, this is idealistic, and goes beyond traditional views of Judaism.  But given the current state of affairs, it seems like a message worth repeating.
Philip and David discuss what it means to transcend Judaism.
