To fully understand the world we live in, we need a research tool that can explore what our senses cannot perceive.

The wisdom of Kabbalah gives us a chance to comprehend the hidden part—the spiritual realm. “Comprehending” is forming a new set of sensors that are beyond the regular five bodily perceptions. The sensations that we experience through new sensors are called “the soul.” In addition to our current “animal” sensations, we can develop qualitatively different organs of vision, hearing, and senses of taste, smell, and touch that are called: Keter, Hochma, Bina, Zeir Anpin, and Malchut. With their help, we will perceive the reality beyond our corporeal sensors.

Kabbalah is a wisdom that reveals the comprehensive reality that is normally hidden from our senses.

The reality that exists within our ego is changing day by day and every moment. If we rise above our egoistic feelings, we attain an external reality, the true reality. This reality does not change and is indeed eternal. The method of achieving this attainment is called the wisdom of Kabbalah. Therefore, it is considered a hidden wisdom that uncovers the hidden reality for us.

The sole purpose of authentic Kabbalah was never anything besides discovering the source of life, the Creator.

I must know that everything is derived from a single power. [Tweet This] This means that all the events that happen with me and with others, all of our feelings, all of the past, present, and future—everything comes from the Creator and for only one purpose, to bring us to Him. All creatures, including myself, the still, vegetative, animate, and humans, everything that exists in this world, what we know and what is still unknown, is received from this higher source. I must concentrate my attention specifically on that, on the Creator.I must know that everything is derived from a single power.

Eventually, we will suddenly start feeling like we can no longer continue along the same lines of progress, and we’ll need to find the meaning of life.

Suffering and emptiness lead a person to the question about their meaning, cause, and purpose. Gradually a person starts feeling that he needs to understand the cause of all that’s happening. The point in the heart is your soul’s initial desire and is similar to a seed: when it’s placed in the environment that’s right for its development, it begins to develop into a vessel in which a person begins to sense the Upper Force, the Creator.

The structure of the soul is reception, bestowal, and the middle line, which is the proper combination between them.

In our relationships we deal with the forces of bestowal and reception. They are both forces of nature. When I combine them in the right way, then the middle line or the soul is formed out of them. The Zohar shows us how to build our reality out of them so we are above the force of bestowal and the force of reception. The Zohar brings the middle line to us from Above. While reading it, we have to try to become included into that line. Then we are tuned to the same wave through which the Light comes to us and returns us to the Source, the Creator.
