ABOUT THIS EPISODE Few people can claim to have seen as much of the world - or immersed in as many of its cultures - as Dov Ber Cohen. Spending six years in the "East" - engaged in meditation, silence retreats, days-long fasts, martial arts and more - Dov Ber sought enlightenment and happiness. He ultimately made his way to Jerusalem where he discovered a Judaism he never knew existed. Today, he devotes his life to writing and teaching Jewish newcomers and veterans alike about the spiritual messages present in their own legacy. Dov Ber's first book, Mastering Life, is forthcoming.
