Basic Concepts in Kabbalah: Expanding Your Inner Vision

Basic Concepts in Kabbalah is a gentle and wise introduction to the concepts and significance of Kabbalah. The book presents ideas and principles in a comfortable manner, allowing the reader to feel at ease with ideas that can seem intimidating if presented in a more demanding fashion. Brief but intimate, the book encourages a second and third reading and further exploration into Kabbalah. Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of Kabbalah but these lessons are unified by a spirit that communicates directly to the reader's soul. A brief but powerful beacon of learning, the book has subtle force and is the ideal introduction to the art and science of Kabbalah. The concepts presented in the book have their roots in what is universally recognized as the authentic disclosure of Kabbalah, the Sulam Commentary on the Zohar, written in the 1930's by Yehuda Ashlag. Author Laitman is the genuine heir to these concepts, as they were personally passed on to him through years of study with Ashlag's eldest son and successor. This relationship is significant, as the reader is assured of having access to the true Kabbalah, not simply a contemporary writer's personal interpretations and 'glossing over' of what are deeply complex lessons and ideas. Rav Michael Laitman, PhD, is the authentic heir to the genuine Kabbalah and this unique book offers these concepts to readers of all backgrounds. Easy to read, impossible to forget, Basic Concepts in Kabbalah is the ideal introduction to the spiritual power and wisdom that is Kabbalah.
