520    "A human being is part of the whole, called by us 
       'Universe, ' a part limited in time and space. He 
       experiences himself, his thoughts, and feelings as 
       something separate from the rest--a kind of optical 
       delusion of his consciousness..." --Albert Einstein  When 
       Rabbi Naomi Levy came across this poignant letter by 
       Einstein it shook her to her core. His words perfectly 
       captured what she has come to believe about the human 
       condition: That we are intimately connected, and that we 
       are blind to this truth. Levy wondered what had elicited 
       such spiritual wisdom from a man of science? Thus began a 
       three-year search into the mystery of Einstein's letter, 
       and into the mystery of the human soul. What emerges is an
       inspiring, deeply affecting book for people of all faiths 
       filled with universal truths that will help us reclaim our
       own souls and glimpse the unity that has been evading us. 
       We all long to see more expansively, to live up to our 
       gifts, to understand why we are here. Levy leads us on a 
       breathtaking journey full of wisdom, empathy and humor, 
       challenging us to wake up and heed the voice calling from 
       within--a voice beckoning us to become who we were born 
       be.
