The Secret of the Light
by Rabbi Daniel Cohen
Summary:
In the face of tragedy and torn between the pressure of his father and the temptations of a mysterious woman, Caleb Uriel is unanchored and lost. Caleb is a budding young lawyer and observant Jew in the 1980s in New York City who struggles with his faith and direction in life. The sudden death of his mother awakens an inner earthquake and reveals the fragile nature of his beliefs.
A chance meeting with a street sweeper and hidden mystic named Elijah in Times Square, though, proves to be the spark to set him on a path for personal discovery and renewal. Elijah reveals to Caleb the existence of an ancient document, The Secret of the Light, whose substance and relevance can only be discovered through a journey to Israel and the power of Caleb’s choices.
Through the halls of a high powered New York Law Firm, the cobble stones street of Safed and much more, Caleb learns as do we the timeless principles of the light and how we all possess the power to reignite our inner light and share it with the world. He discovers that loved ones are ever present and an ancient and timeless road map to restore his faith and ours in God, ourselves and humanity and that no time, person or place is devoid of God’s light.

A MUST READ FOR ALL
The Secret of the Light is a small book with a big message, and if its message is taken to heart, it can transform not only your life but also those with whom you come into contact. Why are we here? Why do we go through our tribulations? These are questions we all ask, and The Secret of the Light can help in our quest to answer these existential thoughts. I recommend this book with no hesitation and much excitement; the book is an easy-to-understand, inspiring read.

A Spiritual Gem
I have just finished reading the most spiritual book I have read in a very long time. It is The Secret of the Light by Rabbi Daniel Cohen. The book is written in the format of a novel and I must admit I didn't expect it to hit me the way it did! It talks about coping with loss and the choice we have in how to live our life after a loss. I finished reading the book a few minutes ago and know that I will have to read it again to further digest parts that I am sure I missed! Consider reading the book yourself, I think you will be happy that you read it!

If you are looking for a spiritual lift for this very special time of year...
Rabbi Cohen‘s fictional account of life events as seen through the eyes of the protagonist became an interesting exploration of my own. The book could’ve been a quick read, but it was so inspiring that a slow reading was called for. The message “brought home” is that nothing in our lives is by chance, though much of it we may not understand until time has passed and perhaps not at all. Nonetheless, we have the ability to uncover a G-d given light within ourselves and others, giving our every moment on this planet true meaning. A great read.

Who doesn’t need more light?? Great book!!
If you're like me and ever wondered, just what are we doing here? You need to read this book. It is a wonderful quick read that is best served by being read over and over again. Rabbi Cohen draws from his own personal experiences including creating "Elijah" moments wherever he goes. No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, this book is a must read. Spread the Light! David R
