Jewish Feeling
Question
I consider myself a very rational person. I believe in God and in Judaism. And for some reason, even though my intellect accepts these things sufficiently, I still don’t feel any desire for Judaism. On the one hand, I don’t feel that I want the service of the Holy One, blessed be He, but on the other hand I truly understand that my desire is not relevant.
What can I do about this? Is there any way to awaken more religious feeling in me? So that I can feel joy and desire in the service of the Holy One, blessed be He?
Thank you very much
Answer
This isn’t really my area. See Column 31, and maybe it will help.
