Download or read book The Tree of Life written by Chayyim Vital and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tree of Life is a collection of writings by Chayyim Vital. In these writings, Vital describes the teachings of his master, Isaac Luria, who is one of the most important figures within modern Kabbalah. Much of the Kabbalah today is based on the teachings of Luria. However, Luria wrote very little during his life. Consequently, Vital is considered to be the primary source and chief interpreter of the teachings of Luria. The Tree of Life is considered to be the most authoritative version of Luria's teachings. The Palace of Adam Kadmon is the first volume of the Tree of Life. In it, Vital describes the creation of the universe. Vital first describes the creation in general and then proceeds to describe it in great detail. The Palace of Adam Kadmon provides a basis for understanding the entire Lurianic system.

Download or read book A Guide to Hidden Wisdom of Kabbalah written by Rav Michael Laitman and published by Laitman Kabbalah Publishers. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important goal in the study of Kabbalah is to use one's knowledge to influence one's destiny. Firstly, one has to realise what life is, what its meaning is, why it is given to us, where it begins, and where it ends. After pondering and meditating on the above questions, one has to relate all this to Kabbalah. Kabbalah states that the Creator created all the worlds simultaneously, including our world, and we human beings have to use Kabbalah in our world, the finite material world. In order to further advance our understanding of the wisdom of Kabbalah, we need to lift our mind's eye above the horizon of our material world. Kabbalah clarifies our perception of reality. What we see around us is subjective and exists only in relation to ourselves. Our perception depends on our organs of sensation: if they were different, we would perceive another world around us. This book provides the reader with a solid foundation for understanding the role of Kabbalah in our world. The contents was designed to allow individuals all over the world to begin traversing the initial stages of spiritual ascent toward the apprehension of the upper realms.

Download or read book The Kabbalistic Mirror of Genesis written by David Chaim Smith and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bold line-by-line reexamination of the first 3 chapters of Genesis that reveals the essential nature of mind and creativity • Deconstructs each line of Genesis chapters 1-3 with esoteric methods derived from the oral teachings of the Kabbalah • Reveals the sefirot, the Tree of Life, as the Divine blueprint of the creative process • Explains how Genesis reveals the Divinity of mind and consciousness Hidden within the first three chapters of Genesis rests one of the greatest jewels of Western mystical literature. For millennia religious literalism has dominated our understanding of the Bible, imprisoning its subtle inner wisdom within the most coarse and superficial aspects of the narrative. Generations have been led to believe that Genesis 1-3 is only a primitive proto-cosmic history, a mythological explanation of the human moral disposition, a religious fairy tale. But by accepting the text as pure kabbalistic metaphor, the mystical content of Genesis springs forth, revealing the Divine nature of creativity as well as a new understanding of the human mind. Deconstructing each line of Genesis 1-3 with esoteric methods derived from the oral teachings of the Kabbalah, David Chaim Smith reveals how the ten sefirot, collectively known as the Tree of Life, are not simply a linear hierarchy. They are a unified interdependent whole with ten interactive functions, forming the template through which creative diversity manifests. Through acts of creation and creativity, the mind expresses its Divine nature. Through our Divine creative power, we are able to touch upon Ain Sof (the infinite), the lifeblood of all creative expression. Smith’s line-by-line examination of Genesis 1-3 reveals a complete model not only of Divine creativity but also of the predicament of the human mind, of the Divine nature of consciousness as well as our inability to recognize the mind’s Divinity. With this new interpretation, which removes the concept of a Creator God, we are able to transcend the contrasting notions of “being” and “non-being” at the heart of conventional habits of perception and awaken a new mystical understanding of Unity and the fathomless depth of Divinity.
