Autor: Gershon Winkler

Gershon Winkler has been described as everything from a brazen trickster of folklore and a mischievous maverick (Intermountain Jewish News, Denver) to combining the wit of Robin Williams with the wisdom of the Baal Shem Tov (The Jerusalem Post). The Los Angeles Times called him a rarity, while the Wall Street Journal in a front-page feature described him as a man who travels an unusual path and ruffles feathers. Noted by Four Corners Magazine for his irrevent reverence, the author has won the hearts and boggled the minds of many through his books, lectures and articles for well over 40 years. Gershon grows corn, writes David Carson, Choctaw Elder and co-author of the bestselling Medicine Cards. He celebrates the wind. He is a friend of Spider, Magpie, and Lizard. He lives with storms, with the crash of lightning, with rainbows. He is a laughing Buddha and a Coyote Trickster. Author of fifteen books, mostly on Jewish history, mystery, law and lore, Winkler has lectured and served as Scholar-in-Residence at colleges and universities, and for intercultural conferences and retreats across the U.S., Canada, Europe, Latin America and Israel. His is a powerful voice that tells a credible story, and with a wonderful sense of humor, writes Dr. Carl Hammerschlag, author of Theft of the Spirit and Dancing Healers. With wit and wisdom, says bestselling author and health guru Dr. Andrew Weil, Gershon renders user-friendly the more cryptic teachings of ancient source texts and oral traditions in a way that inspires and informs our lives.
