Kabbalah: Teachings
built 217 days ago
Unlike the Akashic Records, the Kabbalah is an infinite instructional guide filled with wisdom beyond the realm of mankind. Similar to forbidden truths, the Kabbalah leads the passage to universal knowledge. To delve into the Kabbalah is like sifting through an endless coast of sand to find one grain; as there are endless grains to discover.

Kabbalah literally means "receiving", and is sometimes transliterated as Cabala, Kabbala, Kabala, Kabalah, Qabalah, or other spellings. It is called receiving because the studying of the works without a teacher is useless.

The teachings of Kabbalah do not include prohibitions or commandments. Instead, the kabbalah speak of positive and negative energies. The negative energies of jealousy and envy emanate through the eyes—which gave rise to the very vivid and very ancient term, the Evil Eye.

Many of the teachings of the Kabbalah have been incorporated into Hasidic beliefs and rituals. In Daniel C. Matt's words, "Hasidism is really the popularization of Kabbalah. Hasidism spread it to the masses. Some of the fiercest opposition to Hasidism came on the part of Kabbalists who agree with the ideas but don't think they should be spread so widely." Needless to say, not all Kabbalists are Hasids.

Kabbalah must not be studied for selfish ends or for the gratification of one's personal ambition, pride, or vanity. To become a Tzaddik, one must always strive to help mankind. This cannot be accomplished by studying one branch of Kabbalah, all branches must be studied and then mastered.
