Inhaltsangabe

Rav Michael Berg reminds us to see with a good eye; to recognize the Light in every situation, even in the seemingly darkest times. He awakens us to the illusion of this world and to the lies that it projects to us, as he asks us to rise above it all and experience only Light. We know in our soul that what he says is true, yet it seems counterintuitive to our experience. We understand the message in the moment but our consciousness is elastic returning back to its original form, not long after it has been stretched. Like a bungee cord that bounces back with a counter force, our ego pushes back asking, "Where is all this written?" Much of what he teaches is found in the Study of the Ten Luminous Emanations, Rav Ashlag's commentary on the Writings of the Ari (Rav Isaac Luria). Considered some of the most difficult of all kabbalistic teachings, the Study of the Ten Luminous Emanations discusses the creation of this world and the system that defines our existence. In The Origins of Consciousness, Rav Michael Berg explains Rav Ashlag's commentary, making the incomprehensible, comprehendible. He makes that which is tangled in our brain smooth-loosening the knots of thought, detangling the web of doubt, with a simplicity so powerful that it expands our consciousness past the point of no return. Once we read from these pages, we can no longer experience life the same way. And more importantly we actually have a chance of living life in a different dimension, with a new view-a good eye; seeing the Creator in every moment and illuminating the way for others. For the person who takes their spiritual work seriously, this book is a must read-over and over again.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Rav Yehuda Ashlag was born in Warsaw, Poland, in 1884. From early childhood, he demonstrated remarkable ability, originality, and dedication in the study of the Talmud, the Zohar, and other sacred texts.In his 30s, Rav Ashlag met a Warsaw merchant, a great kabbalist who became his teacher. Their relationship ended when, as Rav Ashlag admitted, "My arrogance caused a separation between us," and the teacher disappeared. They later reunited, and after much pleading, the teacher revealed an important kabbalistic secret to Rav Ashlag, then died the next day. The teacher's identity and the secret have remained unknown.After his teacher's death, Rav Ashlag moved to what is now Israel, where he transformed Kabbalah from a secret wisdom into a widely accessible body of teachings aimed at revolutionizing the world. Drawing on the Zohar, he predicted that 1995 would mark a turning point toward a mass movement for Kabbalah and spiritual transformation. Rav Ashlag wrote and published two major works: "Talmud Eser Sefirot" ("Study of the Ten Luminous Emanations") and his "Sulam Commentary on the Zohar," completed over ten years (1943-1953). This monumental work earned him the title Ba'al HaSulam (Master of the Ladder). The Sulam includes a translation of the Zohar from Aramaic to Hebrew, with detailed commentary and interpretation.In addition to his writings, Rav Ashlag founded The Kabbalah Centre in Israel in 1922. He was the teacher and spiritual master of Rav Yehuda Brandwein, who succeeded him as leader of The Kabbalah Centre upon Rav Ashlag's passing in 1956. In 1969, Rav Brandwein passed the leadership to his student Rav Berg. Rav Ashlag had foretold that one of his students would bring Kabbalah to the world. Under Rav Berg and Karen Berg, The Kabbalah Centre became an international spiritual movement with millions of publications sold and tens of thousands of students worldwide.Rav Ashlag was the first kabbalist to make the Zohar and the wisdom of Kabbalah accessible to everyone. His legacy continues to guide us toward personal and global transformation.
