Have you ever wondered why the mikveh is still necessary in the modern world? This ancient Jewish ritual of immersing oneself in a mikveh is a symbol of renewal and transformation, and has given rise to a variety of practices across the Jewish world. But where did it all begin, and what are the reasons for building a mikveh? Join us as we lift the veil on the world of mayim chayim, exploring the halachic and technical foundations of this ritual and delving into the spiritual dimensions that have given it meaning across generations, communities and life transitions.
Hi, my name is Klára. Originally from the Czech Republic, I am a fourth-year rabbinical student at Abraham Geiger Kolleg in Potsdam, where I also study Jewish Theology at the University of Potsdam. When I am not immersed in texts and sources, I enjoy writing, singing, swimming — and a good sense of humour.
