Below you will find a collection of frequently asked questions & answers as well as additional free resources to satisfy your hunger of knowing about Kabbalah:

principles

What Does The Word ‘Kabbalah’ Mean?
The word Kabbalah comes from the Hebrew word “lekabbel,” which means “to receive.” Kabbalah teaches us how to receive pleasure from the Creator & by doing so correctly, receive infinite joy and fulfillment

Is Kabbalah A Religion?
No. Kabbalah is a science – the physics of the overall reality. Kabbalah has no relation to religion or to Judaism. It is the method of the soul’s correction and does not entail any obligations, restrictions, observance of religious rituals, and so on.

Who Can Study Kabbalah?
Anyone who wants to. Kabbalah reaches out to all those who seek awareness. In the past Kabbalists established a limitation on the study of Kabbalah to prevent people from studying before they were ready. Today, there are no limitations on the study of the wisdom of Kabbalah.

Who Is Bnei Baruch?
Bnei Baruch was established in 1991 by Dr. Michael Laitman. It is a diverse movement of thousands of students worldwide. Each student chooses his or her own path and intensity, according to one’s personal conditions and abilities.

Why Are the Education Center Courses and Materials Free?
It’s written that one may not receive any money or material reward in return for teaching Kabbalah. Since Bnei Baruch teaches & spreads Kabbalah solely as a means for humanity’s spiritual advancement, then we make all our lessons, books and courses available for free online.

What is Kabbalah?

418215_face_-_questions

Kabbalist Yehuda Ashlag (Baal HaSulam) gives this answer:
“If you listen with your heart to one famous question, I am sure that all your doubts as to whether you should study Kabbalah will vanish without a trace. This question is a bitter and a fair one, asked by all born on earth: ’What is the meaning of my life?”

Many people are confused about the origin of Kabbalah and what it represents so here are a few points about what Kabbalah is & isn’t:

  • Kabbalah is a practical study through which we undergo internal changes, unique to each individual.
  • Kabbalah is a science and unlike what you’ve heard, red string, holy water & tarot cards have nothing to do with Kabbalah.
  • Actually Kabbalah doesn’t speak about our corporeal world at all, it only deals with the way we are created and how we function at higher levels of existence.
