All too many people come to a study of Kabbalah from the perspective of academia and book learning. Doing this will indeed give one information on the subject just as learning any other subject will do the same.But Kabbalah is not like any other subject! Kabbalah is not something that one studies, Kabbalah is something that one does!In order to practice the Kabbalah, one must first understand its intricate language of metaphors. Indeed, without understanding the symbols, and what the symbols actually mean, one will never be able to apply them properly, and come to experience the higher "spiritual" realties which surround us.This book is your guide to understanding many of the concepts, symbols, and metaphors of the Kabbalah, as it has been presented and studied since the 13th century.Herein are discussed in-depth lessons from the master Kabbalist, Rabbi Hayim Vital, who recorded for us the Kabbalistic Torah of the Ari'zal. Rabbi Vital's language is more intense in its usage of metaphor and symbol than any other school of Kabbalah. Yet, to understand it literally is a terrible misfortune. This book will open to the reader the underlying psychic/psychological true meanings of the system, and how the explanation of the Supernal Worlds is actually an explanation of the worlds within the human psyche and soul.Also included in this book is a section about Torah and Yoga. The similarities and the differences between these systems have confused many for years. The included Kabbalistic teachings will offer the readers insight that will finally resolve many unanswered questions about this topic.The revelations in this book are long overdue. But now they are available to the sincere seeker. If this is you, you already know it, and you also already know that this book is for you!
