Essential Zohar
Posted on | June 12, 2006 | No Comments
I just finished the book “The Essential Zohar: The Source of Kabbalistic Wisdom” by Rav P.S. Berg (2002).
This resonates most closely with my spiritual manifesto – I’m going to focus more time and energy on Kabbalistic study over the next little while.
Here are some quotes that resonate with me:
“We must assure ourselves that we will master the course of our lives.” (p 108)
“… that desire to receive in order to share would draw the Light of the Creator into our lives.” (p 163)
“We are not transformed by keeping within our comfort zones. Transformation requires real effort.” (p 181)
“The true porpose of humanity in general, and of every human being, is to connect with the Light of the Creator in greater and greater intensity, and eventually to literally become one with the Light.” (p 213)
“The kabbalists find the cause in their ability to transform desiere to receive for themselves alone into desire to receive in order to share.” (p 214)
“Because what, after all, is patience? Just the unshakable knowledge-the certainty-that what is in our beest interest will come to be.” (p 216)
