e/Shuckling

Information
has gloss	eng: Shuckling, from the Yiddish word meaning "to shake" (also written as shokeling) is the ritual swaying of Jewish worshippers during prayer, usually forward and back but also from side to side. This practice can be traced back to at least the eighth century, and possibly as far back as Talmudic times. It is believed to increase concentration and emotional intensity (Eisenberg 2004:360). In Chassidic lore, shuckeling is seen as an expression of the souls desire to abandon the body and reunite itself with its source, similar to a flames shaking back and forth as if to free itself from the wick (Tanya chapter 19).
