Kabbalah
and the Mysteries
of the Tree of Life
Kabbalah:
Kabbalah is a way of understanding all aspects of ourselves and is a rewarding
guide for personal and spiritual development.
Based on a map of consciousness called the Tree of Life, Kabbalah, or Qabalah
(an alternative spelling), is relevant to modern everyday life, offering
greater freedom and fulfillment through including the experience of both
our spirit and shadow sides.
The mystical teachings of Kabbalah are, perhaps surprisingly, not too
difficult to learn and understand. In fact, you can not only understand
Kabbalah but you can use it to improve your daily life, at work, during
leisure time and particularly through your relationships, and find out why
it has influenced many people from all walks of life.
We don't know the true origins of Kabbalah, but as it is many thousands
of years old it's not a passing fad. Kabbalah adapts itself to whatever
use you put it, so it is of equal value to a secretary, social worker, therapist,
computer programmer, even to a politician. Everyone, really. And you can
apply its wisdom to just about anything, so its applications are universal.
It is most effective, though, when we apply it to ourselves.
Applied to ourselves, Kabbalah becomes a practical system of self-development
based around a diagram known as the Tree of Life, which through its cleverly
designed visual structure helps us make connections between apparently unrelated
facts that then become gems of meaningful wisdom.
At its simplest, Kabbalah aims to help you live life to the full, and learn
to be here with respect for the planet itself and all the life forms it
supports. Kabbalah teachings stress that when we care for our environment,
both locally and generally, we are also bringing our deepest, spiritual
consciousness to earth.
Using Kabbalah does not require you to believe in something or not, it helps
you connect to a centre inside yourself where you are closest to the essence
of yourself, your Divine Spark, or simply the deepest and most valuable
aspect of yourself. Simultaneously, you experience at a deep core level
how everything is inter-related.
