Are mysticism and morality compatible or at odds with one another?
If mystical experience embraces a form of non-dual consciousness,
then in such a state of mind, the regulative dichotomy so basic to
ethical discretion would seemingly be transcended and the very
foundation for ethical decisions undermined. Venturing Beyond - Law
and Morality in Kabbalistic Mysticism is an investigation of the
relationship of the mystical and moral as it is expressed in the
particular tradition of Jewish mysticism known as the Kabbalah. The
particular themes discussed include the denigration of the non-Jew
as the ontic other in kabbalistic anthropology and the
eschatological crossing of that boundary anticipated in the
instituition of religious conversion; the overcoming of the
distinction between good and evil in the mystical experience of the
underlying unity of all things; divine suffering and the ideal of
spiritual poverty as the foundation for transmoral ethics and
hypernomian lawfulness.
