Why Pray? from 9/19/2005
Recorded on September 19, 2005, as part of the “Three Encounters with Elie Wiesel: The Fascination with Jewish Tales.”, Elie Wiesel speaks about how “people must bring to prayer the fullness of their experience — including doubt, disappointment, or even anger — in order for their prayers to be meaningful.” He also addresses the most critical question: why pray?
In 2005, he told David Levy in the Jewish Advocate: “I love tales, I always have,” crediting the centrality of storytelling in his life to his early upbringing in the Hasidic world of Eastern Europe. “Hasidism is not only tales, but it’s also tales. No other religious movement concentrates so much on storytelling and tales as the Hasidic movement,” he said.
Professor Wiesel is introduced by his long-time friend, former University President Dr. John Silber.

Elie Wiesel’s reflections during the 2005 event “Three Encounters with Elie Wiesel: The Fascination with Jewish Tales” offer a profound insight into the spiritual and cultural essence of prayer and storytelling in Jewish tradition. Introduced by his close friend and former Boston University President Dr. John Silber, Wiesel shared how authentic prayer must arise from the totality of human experience — not just faith or gratitude, but also doubt, anger, and disappointment. For Wiesel, true prayer is not sanitized; it is a dialogue with the divine that must reflect the inner turmoil and honesty of the one praying. dogsounds app
