When I Am Not There Anymore: The Spiritual Secret of Rosh Hashanah with Dr. Miriam Menaker

Season 1 · Episode 6

Wednesday, September 9, 2026 • Duration 48:35

"When I reach the moment that I am not there anymore."

A pianist was once asked how he knows he has truly succeeded in a performance. His answer: it is when the instrument becomes the musician — when there is no separation between the player and the music. He is one with it.

That single idea captures the entire spiritual journey of Rosh Hashanah.

In this deeply moving episode, we explore one of the most profound teachings in Jewish mysticism: why the shofar falls silent when Rosh Hashanah meets Shabbat. The answer is not what you might expect. It is not about practicality or fear of carrying on Shabbat. It is about something far deeper — a kind of silence that speaks louder than any sound.

When the shofar is not blown, something extraordinary is revealed: a level of connection with the Divine that transcends human effort entirely. This is Bitul — the nullification of the self — not as loss, but as the ultimate discovery of who you truly are. You stop being separate. You become a channel for God's infinite light.

Through unforgettable stories — a Hasidic rabbi finding peace in a Soviet gulag, a musician dissolving into his art, a woman leaving Hollywood to rebuild her life in faith — this episode illuminates what it means to stop performing and start being. To stop asking "Am I doing this right?" and instead become the instrument itself.

You will also discover a powerful meditation on the sounds of the shofar: how the first blast calls us to presence, how the broken sounds of shevarim invite us to shatter our inner blockages, and how the final receiving of God's countenance fills us with hope and energy for the year ahead.

Whether you are deeply rooted in Jewish learning or simply searching for something real this Rosh Hashanah, this episode will meet you where you are. It is an invitation to stop striving, stop performing, and start disappearing — so that something far greater than yourself can finally appear.

A new year is opening. A new book is being written. The only question is: will you be the musician, or will you become the music?
