Science explains the mechanisms that sustain life; Kabbalah
explains why life exists. In Kabbalah, Science and the Meaning of
Life, Rav Michael Laitman, PhD, a kabbalist and a scientist,
combines science and spirituality in a captivating dialogue that
reveals lifes meaning. For thousands of years kabbalists have been
writing that the world is made of a single entity divided into
separate beings. Today the cutting edge science of quantum physics
states a very similar idea: that at the most fundamental level of
matter, we are all literally one. Science proves that reality is
affected by the observer who examines it. And so does Kabbalah. But
Kabbalah says more: even the Creator of reality is found within the
observer. In other words, God is inside of us, he doesnt exist
anywhere else. When we pass away so does he. These earthshaking
concepts and more are eloquently introduced so that even readers
uneducated in Kabbalah or science will easily understand them.
Therefore, if youre just a little curious about why you are here,
what life means, and what you can do to enjoy it more, this is your
book.
Reveals the factors contributing to the perilous state in which we
find our world today. Many researchers and scientists agree that
the cause of humankinds problems is the human ego. Yet Laitmans
groundbreaking new book not only demonstrates that ego has been the
basis for all suffering throughout human history but also reveals
why we are subject to suffering due to our egos, and how we can
turn our plight to pleasure, our troubles to opportunity. The book
contains two parts. First, an analysis of the human soul and how
the souls own structure is its bane. The book also maps out what we
need to do to once again be happy, and what we should avoid because
it would worsen our suffering. Throughout the book, Laitmans
analysis of the state of humanity is supported by examples from
science and from Kabbalists both ancient and contemporary. "From
Chaos to Harmony" determines that we can and must collectively rise
to a new level of existence and explains how we can accomplish this
goal on personal, social, national and international levels.
This is a book for everyone who is seeking answers to life's
essential questions. We all have problems; we want to know why we
are here, why there is pain and how we can make life more
enjoyable. The four parts of this book tell us exactly how the
wisdom of Kabbalah came about, who discovered and developed it, and
what they discovered. Afterwards, the book tells us about the world
we live in and finally, it explains how we can make our lives
better for ourselves and for our children. Part One discusses the
discovery of the wisdom of Kabbalah, and how it was developed, and
finally concealed until our time. Part Two introduces the gist of
the wisdom of Kabbalah, using 10 easy drawings to help us
understand the structure of the spiritual worlds, and how they
relate to our world.These drawings are accompanied by explanatory
texts that make understanding Kabbalah very easy. Part Three
reveals Kabbalistic concepts that are largely unknown to the
public. For example: the Creator exists nowhere but within us; our
senses reveal what they sense, not what is really out there; and
reality is nothing but a reflection of our perception, and hence
changes when we change. Part Four elaborates on practical means you
and I can take in order to make our lives here better and more
enjoyable for us and for our children. It explains how we can
implement Kabbalistic principles such as freedom of choice and the
power of society, and thus become more whole and fulfilled
individuals.
This is a clearly-written, user-friendly guide to making sense of
the surrounding world while achieving inner peace. Each of the six
chapters in this book focuses on a different aspect of the ancient
wisdom of Kabbalah, shedding new light on a teaching that has too
often been shrouded in mystery and misconceptions. A subtle, yet
profound idea weaves the books chapters into a coherent and
concrete whole. The first three chapters tell us why the present
world is in a state of crisis, explaining how our growing desires
promote progress as well as alienation, and why the biggest
deterrent to achieving positive change is rooted in our own
spirits. Chapters Four to Six offer a prescription for positive
change. Therein, we learn how we can use our spirits to build a
personally peaceful life in harmony with all of Creation. For the
first time ever, the timeless principles of Kabbalah are explained
for a general readership by a world-renowned scholar of Kabbalah --
Rav Michael Laitman, PhD. For those seeking to achieve
transformational change on a personal, communal or global level,
"Kabbalah Revealed" is required reading.
This is a unique collection of excerpts from a man whose wisdom has
earned him devoted students in North America and the world over.
Michael Laitman is a scientist, a Kabbalist, and a great thinker
who presents ancient wisdom in a compelling style. Written in a
unique and metaphorical language, this book speaks to us in a
sincere, yet thought-provoking manner while answering the deepest
questions all humans have asked. When life gets out of hand, when
we need a moment to reflect and to be alone with our thoughts, this
book will help us rediscover our inner compass. This book does not
profess to teach Kabbalah, but rather gently introduces ideas from
the teaching. The Point in the Heart is a window to a new
perception. As the author himself testifies to the wisdom of
Kabbalah, "It is a science of emotion, a science of pleasure. You
are welcome to open and to taste". In Kabbalah, the heart is a
symbol of our desire to enjoy. And the point in the heart is that
special, intimate moment when we ask ourselves about our purpose
for being here. It is that time when we pause and reflect on what
lies beyond the incessant "gadget-chase" and ask not if we really
need them, but why is it that we want them in the first place. In
Laitmans own words, this is "the beginning of the soul, the first
step toward revealing love". When you need a light in the dark,
this book will be your candle.
Kabbalists state that there is no reality at all, but something
called His Essence, the Upper Force, and this is what we perceive
as our world. As uncanny as it sounds, this notion hides in its
wings the very prospect of freedom, for every person, for every
nation, and for the entire world. The structure and the perception
of reality are the surface of this book. But the story of humanity,
or more accurately, of the human soul, is the undercurrent that
drives the reader forward in this book. It is about you, about me,
about all of us. This book is about the way we were, the way we
are, the way we will be, and most importantly, it is about the best
way to get there. In this neatly structured composition, every part
speaks of a different aspect of Kabbalah. It starts with our
perception of reality, our perception of the Creator, and the
evolution of our soul in the spiritual worlds (including
explanatory drawings). The book also clears up misconceptions about
Kabbalah and explains, in plain words, how to experience the
spiritual realm of our lives.
