I was wondering if learning at least some of the Hebrew language would be recommended to help in the study of Kabbalah? I’ve actually always wanted to learn Hebrew but never followed through with it.
Wow Albert @ KabU…thanks for the eureka moment. I can’t wait to continue this journey to finding Ultimate Reality. You all @KabU rock. Thanks for the learning opportunity!!!😊
Hi Michelle,
Knowing Hebrew is helpful, but you don’t really need to learn Hebrew to study Kabbalah. All of our materials are professionally translated to English and many other languages.
But does the translation pass the full spiritual meaning? No. Hebrew is a language built for passing spiritual meaning, not just the meaning of the words, but every single letter and shape of the letter is a code for a spiritual state. So any translation is good but it will never give you 100% of the true spiritual meaning, it’s impossible.
So how big is the loss? For a person who is not yet in spirituality, the loss is very very small, even minuscule. In fact we have thousands of students worldwide studying with us on a daily basis, in a language other than Hebrew. Whenever Rav Laitman visits these groups, he always remarks how there is no difference in the spiritual advancement between these students and the students in front of him (all Hebrew speakers) that he studies with daily. This is because spirituality does not depend on knowledge but only on the desire. If we build the right desire for spirituality, we will feel it, if not, then no.

What is the operating mechanism of the “spiritual world”in Kabbalah? How the objects in this world corresponds to with the spiritual world?I want to know the links between I mentioned above so l can start to solve some specific things.If I know the reason”above”,I can use it to deal with the result “below” in real life easier.
Hello,
Spirituality works according to laws. The main law in spirituality is the law of equivalence of form. Meaning that in order to reach spirituality, we need to become similar to the spiritual qualities of love and bestowal that reside there.
It’s similar to how a radio works. That we just need to tune the inner frequency of the radio to match the external wave. Once we tune in to the wave that we want, we right away hear the music that is on that wave. Likewise with us, once we tune ourselves in the direction of bestowal, we will reveal the spiritual world.
Check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details: http://laitman.com/2013/04/everything-is-attained-by-the-equivalence-of-form/
As for understanding these spiritual roots, we need to keep in mind that the roots operate on the frequency of bestowal, while we operate on the frequency of reception. As such, we operate on two completely different frequencies. So it’s currently impossible for us to understand these spiritual roots. We first need to correct our nature, make it similar to the spiritual qualities of bestowal, and only then will we begin to understand these spiritual roots.

You mention in the video that all the wisdom became available in 1995. What specifically happened that that year?
Hi Ann,
Although we point to 1995 as to when Kabbalah became revealed, technically the prohibition was lifted much earlier, from the time of the Ari. He was the one to make a very special correction within the entire spiritual system, after which its not only possible, but a must to openly disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah in order to help the whole world reach its correction.
Check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details on the Ari: https://laitman.com/2010/08/the-ari-rav-isaac-luria-the-godly-man/
So why do we say 1995? Let’s put a few things into perspective:
Kabbalah is the method of correction of our egoistic nature, thereby revealing the Creator, the general force of love and bestowal. Why was it necessary to conceal such a wisdom? Because egoism was still not yet fully developed. For example: if you compare Kabbalah to a medicine that can cure a rare disease, obviously you can’t take the medicine before you’re diagnosed with the disease, but once the disease actually manifests, you can take the medicine and be cured of it.
It’s just like the 5 stages development of a disease within a person. First a person is healthy. Then he is sick, but he does not feel it. Then the disease spreads to the point that he starts to feel pain and symptoms of the disease. This then pushes him to go to a doctor to get diagnosed and find the cure, and etc.
2000 years ago, egoism was still on a very low level, there was no need to correct it. Starting from the days of the Ari, egoism already grew to a certain extent (and technically the prohibition on Kabbalah ended there), but humanity still didn’t feel sick, on the contrary the ego was the main driving force of all of our development. Then from around 1995 egoism peaked and began to show itself as bad, like a cancer that begins to kill the host body. This is the peak at which there was a true need for the cure. Which in essence is what the Kabbalists have been waiting for all these years, for the desire, for egoism to fully ripen.

Is the ‘inborn perception’ the same for a woman as for a man ?
Is the woman starting Kabbalah in the same place as a man ?
Is a woman able to copy the Men Tens successfully?
Although the destination of practicing Kabbalah is One Heart with One Mind, Nature shows us that there are two complimentary functions in the human heart and two biological creatures for perpetuating human existence on earth. Intellectually would there be some difference between biological creatures ?
Hi Julie,
1. Not just between men and women, but each and every person is completely unique and feels the world through his/her uniqueness. As such, it’s impossible to compare how one person feels spirituality with another.
2. We all start equally, buried within our egoistic nature.
3. No one needs to copy another ten, each one needs to work on the connection within their own ten.
4. Each and every one of us is unique and different. It’s like an 8 billion piece jigsaw puzzle where each piece is different from every other piece. Furthermore, each piece is very important, since no one piece can replace any other piece. And if even one piece is missing, the entire puzzle is incomplete.
