Devekut is a Hebrew term that refers to a spiritual state of attachment or cleaving to the divine. It is often associated with Jewish mysticism, particularly in the teachings of Kabbalah. Practitioners seek to cultivate a deep, personal connection with God through prayer, meditation, and ethical living. In Hasidic thought, devekut is seen as an ideal state where one experiences a profound sense of unity with the divine presence. This connection is believed to enhance spiritual awareness and lead to a more meaningful life. Achieving devekut can involve various practices, including studying Torah and engaging in acts of kindness.
