Download or read book Disclosing a Portion the inner mechanics of the Torah written by Michael Laitman and published by Laitman Kabbalah Publishers. This book was released on 2014-03-03 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pentateuch, or The Five Books of Moses, is a fascinating odyssey of a nation in the making. Yet, underneath the tales that reveal human nature at its zenith and at its nadir lies an ocean of wisdom that, if uncovered, can alter reality itself. Dr. Michael Laitman’s Disclosing a Portion: the inner mechanics of the Torah uncovers some of that wisdom in a manner none other has done before. Throughout the year, each week observant Jews read a different portion of the Pentateuch (which they refer to as the “Torah”). Each portion deals with a different topic, and is titled according to the first word, or words, in the portion. As you read through the portions, you will discover that each of the protagonists in the stories we’ve known for so long is not a myth, but a living force within. These forces direct and determine your path in life, and when you come to know them, you come to know your true self. Take your time to delve into the text, and portion by portion you will find new meanings that will enrich and empower you as you become the happy, confident person that you dream of being.

Download or read book Unlocking the Zohar written by Michael Laitman and published by Laitman Kabbalah Publishers. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Zohar (Book of Radiance), also known as The Zohar is one of the most mysterious and misunderstood compositions ever written. The awe, admiration, and even fear it has evoked over the years are unsurpassed. This book contains the secrets of the whole of Creation, but until recently these secrets were shrouded in a cloud of mystery and misconceptions. Now The Zohar is openly unfolding its wisdom throughout the world, to show humanity a way forward, as the book itself declares (VaYera, Item 460), When the days of the Messiah draw near, even infants will discover the secrets of the wisdom. The greatest Kabbalist of the 20th century, Rav Yehuda Ashlag (1884-1954) paved a new way for us by which we can reveal the secrets of The Zohar. He wrote the Sulam [Ladder] Commentary and the four introductions for The Zohar to help us come to know the forces that govern our lives, and teach us how we can assume control over our destinies. This book is an invitation to a wondrous journey to a higher world. The author, Kabbalist Dr Michael Laitman, wisely ushers us into the revelations of the Sulam commentary. In so doing, Laitman helps us fine-tune our thoughts as we read in The Zohar, to maximize the spiritual benefit derived from reading it. In addition to explaining The Book of Zohar, the book contains numerous inspiring quotes from The Zohar, specifically translated, edited, and compiled for easy reading and understanding of this powerful text.

Download or read book Let There Be Light written by Yaniv C and published by Laitman Kabbalah Publishers. This book was released on 2012-06-06 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book of Zohar (Radiance), also known as The Zohar, is regarded by many as the most enchanting and mysterious composition ever to be written. No other literary work has provoked quite so much awe and admiration among writers, thinkers, and spiritual seekers. The Zohar contains all the secrets of creation, but until recently the wisdom of Kabbalah was locked under a thousand locks. Thanks to the work of Rav Yehuda Ashlag (1884-1954), the last of the great Kabbalists, The Zohar is revealed today in order to propel humanity to its next degree. Ashlag's Sulam (Ladder) commentary has made The Zohar accessible to all. Let There Be Light contains selected excerpts from the series Zohar for All, a refined edition of The Book of Zohar with the Sulam commentary. Each piece was carefully chosen for its beauty and depth as well as its capacity to draw the reader into The Zohar and get the most out of the reading experience. The number at the beginning of each item marks the item in the portion from which it was taken. More importantly, as The Zohar speaks of nothing but the intricate web that connects all souls, diving into its words attracts the special force that exists in that state of oneness, where we are all connected. The Zohar is the bridge that connects us to that source of energy and vitality that permeates all of reality.
