Confessions of a Rabbi and a Psychic

Front Cover
Element Books, Incorporated, 2000 - Religion - 224 pages
In this compelling series of more than fifty letters between Rabbi Shmuley Boteach and Uri Geller, a search for answers arises. Uri seeks wisdom that goes deeper than any he has fathomed on his own, while Shmuley examines how to harness the wild forces motivating the New Spiritual Age.

The correspondents write in sharply contrasting styles, creating a dynamic relationship that invites the reader to follow its progression as a vast range of topics is explored. Rabbi Boteach is a straight-talking, open-minded skeptic who trusts his eyes and his religious instincts, with an exemplary education and a rebel's role in the Judaic establishment. Uri Geller is a fable-weaving, controversial paranormalist who has never found any single explanation for all the things he knows to be true, with a diverse education and a well-established position outside the establishment.

Far-reaching in both scope and depth, Confessions of a Rabbi and a Psychic presents a fascinating dialogue in which each writer gradually comes to understand the other's heart, and in the process, disclose extraordinary revelations.
