In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, we explore the inner preparation and energetic alignment that makes revelation possible. As we enter the month of Sivan and approach Shavuot, we turn to the Baal Shem Tov’s teaching that the voice of Sinai never stopped — it’s still speaking, waiting for us to become still enough to hear.

We dive into themes of readiness, emptiness, and the sacred unknown. The Torah was not given in a city, nor on a mountaintop of clarity — but in the wilderness. The desert becomes a holy container precisely because it is empty, uncertain, and wild. It’s there — in the place without maps — that we encounter the Divine.

What does it mean to prepare ourselves to hear what’s already being spoken? How do the spiritual frequencies of this month invite us into alignment, humility, and holy listening? And how might these teachings reveal the subtle invitation of Sinai — not just as a historical moment, but as a present-moment possibility?

Deepen with Ohmek:

Ohmek is a community of women and men pursuing deeper ways of being.

It is the space that holds all, yet remains empty, the void that allows healing and transformation to take place, take shape, belong, integrate and disperse.

It is an invitation inward, into a space and community, as well as one’s own inner world. A place to be stretched and to come together, to feel at home in exploration, with room to be and to breathe.

At our upstate retreat center and Brooklyn locations, in our sacred gatherings, healing containers and embodied mysticism classes, we invite you into spiritual experiences and sacred spaces that allow us — collectively and individually — to explore our own depths, underneath the underneath.

In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, we explore the profound commandment: You shall be holy. What is our relationship to the sacred? How do we feel its presence?

We reflect on the dreams that guide us and the steps that we walk along the way, expanding our awareness to hold the fullness of our journeys. We consider the power of collective gathering, witnessing, and consciousness.

Drawing from a teaching in Kedushat HaLevi, we delve into the nature of prayer, the transformative force of gratitude, and the path to sanctity. Along the way, we contemplate the enduring energy of netzach and the Zen teaching: When we walk through mist, we get wet.

In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, we explore the deep wounds and healing opportunities embedded in Pesach. We dive into themes of loss, muteness, and unworthiness, and how the mitzvot of Pesach offer a path to healing. Through the lens of a text by Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, we examine the concept of Seder (Order) and the illusion of control. How do these teachings reveal the profound medicine of faith, and what can they teach us about letting go and the ultimate Order?
