Modern physics has forever changed the way we view and understand
physical reality. With a wide spectrum of theories, from general
relativity to quantum mechanics, our conceptions of the very big
and the very small are no longer intuitively obvious. Many
philosophers, even scientists have expressed the opinion that the
counterintuitive conclusions posited in modern physics are best
understood using spiritual terminology. In the 11 lectures in this
volume, Harav Ginsburgh, one of our generation's foremost scholars,
innovators, and teachers of Kabbalah, reveals how modern physics
reflects foundational concepts in the Torah's inner dimension. A
wide range of topics from relativity (special and general), quantum
mechanics, and string theory are addressed. Elegantly and
gracefully, Harav Ginsburgh's exposition of the topics switches
back and forth between the scientific and Torah perspectives. With
his deep insight, Harav Ginsburgh gives even well-known physical
concepts a refreshing and new treatment. Apart from carefully
drawing parallels and correspondences between the Torah's inner
dimension and modern physics, in these lectures, Harav Ginsburgh
proposes new directions for scientific research into important
areas such as a unified field theory, CPT symmetry, the
relationship between acceleration and gravitation, and the
possibility of uncovering additional dimensions in physical
reality, demonstrating how the Torah's depth can be used to
fertilize science and further our understanding of nature.
Harav Yitzchak Ginsburgh is one of our generation s foremost
expositors of Kabbalah and Chassidut and is the author of over 100
books in Hebrew, English, French, Russian, and Spanish. The
interface between Torah and science is one of the areas in which he
is known for his breakthrough work, forging a path in
revolutionizing the way we think about the relationship between
Judaism and modern science. He is also the founder and dean of the
Ba al Shem Tov School of Jewish Psychology, and his unique approach
to mathematics in Torah is now the basis of a new math curriculum
for Jewish schools.
