Items related to Many Blessings: The Remembrance of One
Many Blessings: The Remembrance of One was written by Samuel B. Hanser for his sister, Raviva, when he was 20 and she was 13. The book was published by the Samuel B. Hanser Memorial Trust after Samuel s untimely death in 2010 just short of his 28th birthday. At his funeral, Rabbi Wes Gardenswartz said that Sam was a teacher, a rabbi whose words were psalms to help us heal. In his book, Sam speaks about love and life, truth and death. He challenges us to make peace within ourselves, with each other, and within our wide, wide world. He asks us to question reality and our reasons for being. The poetry of Many Blessings has inspired Berklee College of Music composers, Bill Banfield and Beth Denisch, to set these words to music. The messages of Many Blessings have empowered readers to face life s challenges with a larger view of the universe in which we live. As Sam said: If you re looking for meaning, then it is yours to create. You set the destination for your life and if you persevere, you will get there. Be careful though. Even purpose can be an addiction. It s how you get there that matters. That means staying present with your experience, whatever it may be. And on death: In truth, there are no deaths, only transformations of consciousness. Embrace these transitions, befriend them, because on their arrival you will have no choice but to face yourself. Do you like what you see? Many Blessings leaves us with questions, ideas, and images that incite us to find ourselves in a timeless, limitless world by being our selves.
