My Kabbalah Diary

If someone believes and realizes that he is a shining light, then his life will have an impact. Because only in the Light itself, he can realize that there is a power within him that is stronger than the forces around him. In the teachings of Kabbalah, we are not energy but we are sparks of the divine light which will provide energy that affects the lives around us, humans and the entire universe. Then, how can a person know that the Light is starting to work within him? First, he realizes more and more that he does not live for himself, but rather he is an intermediary between the Creator and humans and the Universe. Because when someone revives the light within him with the Creator of Light, then the light of the Divine will come back to life within him. And secondly, when the Light of the Divine returns to shine within him, then slowly he finds new courage and inspiration to create something. Meanwhile, he is also increasingly confident and believes in moving forward and climbin...

Light has a very strong impact and influence in human life. The way Light works is in vertical and horizontal lines. Humans will not live forever in their selfishness, because they are the only humans who were created to be similar and in the image of the Creator. And one of the ways to be an unselfish human being, is how to build connections and unite with the Creator. In order to measure whether a person has a connection with the Creator, he will definitely build spiritual ladders. The meaning of the spiritual ladder is where a human being can go up to the next level of the ladder, then Shechinah or the Feminine Aspect of the Divine will easily go down. Kabbalah really emphasizes with whom we build connections, then so be it. If he continues to build a connection with the Creator, until he is one with Him, then slowly the aspect of receiving in a person will change into the aspect of giving. Vertical is building a connection with the Creator, and breaking down egoism in humans. And s...

The meaning of death in the Kabbalah sense, does not mean as is known, namely physical death. Someone who is lifeless and can no longer breathe, then buried. But this event is called sleep according to Kabbalah teachings. It's true, someone who can no longer breathe, it's called sleep, because the spirit and soul of a person is tracing the journey to the Creator. He is elevating from the physical world to the spiritual world and the true journey of the soul. So, physical death is a hallucination. While the real meaning of death in Kabbalah, is mental reformation. Where a person un dergoes a transformation like a caterpillar into a cocoon and then a butterfly, that is, turning off the nature of his ego and no longer thinking about how to live alone. Often a person forgets that dreaming while deep asleep is just an illusion, but actually part of one's spiritual life journey. And a person who experiences physical death, or is asleep in the spiritual world, inscribes himself as...

Although the Bible can often stand without the Zohar, the Zohar cannot be separated from the Bible itself. Although the Zohar is one of the most famous mystic books from the Jewish tradition itself. Meanwhile, the Zohar Book is one of the Jewish Midrash. The Midrash are the books that describe what is in the Tanakh itself. So that Bible and Zohar go hand in hand. The Zohar is one of the Tanakh's own commentaries. And for one to study and understand more deeply, one cannot fail to study the Tanakh. And another reason why a Kabbalist needs to study the Tanakh more deeply is because the Zohar teaches that the Torah includes the element of water, and is one of the feminine aspects of the Divine. And according to the Zohar, by studying the Tanakh, one can be spared from judgment. And because of that, midnight is a good time to study Torah. Because the night is also included in the aspect of Malchut. And the Zohar itself teaches, that with the Torah, a 'Tree of Life' in one'...

Sound according to Kabbalah includes one of Zeir Anpin (heaven), and speech includes Malchut. So that it can be concluded that what we say, everything contains power. In Shema's prayer, "Shema Yisrael Adonai Eloheinu Adonai Echad", there are three elements in sound, and sound is created from air, and air creates breath. Air or wind is included in the elements of the spiritual world. So, whatever we listen to and what we say, be careful. Because sound and talk will be easy enough to influence our spiritual life. Then, how, and is it related to the music that we listen to all the time? Of course, even morethan that, music is something mystical in Kabbalah. There is a close connection between music and the mystical world. And music is one of the important roles in influencing the spiritual world. The speech or words that we utter is Malchut. So to invite the Shechinah, this feminine's aspect of the Divine, we need words to invite the Shechinah. Even though the Divine is ...

One of the true meanings of life, is a journey, and because of that in a life requires a process. Spiritual journey, and we are travelers. But often we do not realize or forget what is invisible to the naked eye. Because we are always focused on what our own eyes see, our hands touch, and what our ears hear. If a person's life continues to focus on this one, then he will continue to focus on the manifestation world or Atsiyah, without paying attention to the aspects of life that give real influence, namely the other three spiritual worlds. The spiritual world influences human life 98%, and the manifest world is no more than 2%. When one focuses on the world of manifestation, one will feel tired, bored and bored to face the day to day life of one's own. The longer a person is preoccupied with the world of manifestation without regard for the spiritual world, the more he enslaves himself to that which has been manifested by the spiritual world itself. Then, what is the true mean...

Some people ask what's that Tikun? And some of them answered, Tikun is a karma, or a mission in one's life, or something that has to be recovered. But the truth of Tikun himself is not always talking about something bad. Have you ever thought about how a person is born with various missions that are different from one another? Or, just keep believe , when your life is going through a very difficult journey, because if you have to face the same problem, or face the same challenge, it will bring your life all the time around the same desert? Yes, it is Tikun. And be aware, that not forever, Tikun is something very scary or boring to deal with alone. However, when someone has met the light, then when he will be faced with Tikun that will immediately make peace in his life. The more a person walks according to where the Light has led him, the easier it will be for a person to find his tikun. And the more a person walks with the Light, the more he also gains the courage and ability...
