Hi ,
I am David o Xavid and had a fascinating family history, we are one of the few of the many families from San Pedro Garza Garcia, Monterrey Nuevo Leon who were raised Jewish in the home. My mother’s family survived the Inquisition descends from Maria Inez Rodriquez Carvajal (sister to Francisco Rodriguez de Matos husband of Francisca Nunez de Carvajal ) continued to practice in the home, speak Ladino, and was raised with grandmothers who spoke Hebrew and were healers and Kabbalists. I have an official Certificate from La Fundacion de Comunidades Judias de Espana recognizing my Jewish ancestors who were victims of the Inquisition or forced to convert (my father a Catholic whose DNA like mine have the Cohanim DNA). I will be receiving my Spanish Citizenship under the Law of Return for Sefardi. My mother taught me a little about the Kabbalah in high school. I am interested in the Kabbalah because my grandmothers were very mystical and spiritualists.
Hi Tony – or should I call you ‘Rabbi Kosinec’? I’ve been interested in learning more about the Kabbalah after having been exposed to it as a Freemason, where in the Scottish Rite – we learn that the Kabbalah is something to be studied. It’s also been referenced numerous times in one of the most iconical books on Freemasony by Albert Pike called Morals & Dogma. I’ve watched numerous short youtube videos on the Kabbalah – and really wanted a structured learning format on learning this, seems there are a bunch of folks on youtube who throw a mish-mash of thoughts into this. Instead of learning what it is – I want to learn what it is to be a Kabbalist … as it seems to be a logical discovery of oneself through God, not just one of those ‘gotta have faith’ type of religions.
Just starting my journey here with Part 1 … I’ll give you a an update as I complete this course. Thanks very much for having such a platform!

I am Bill Reid, living near Asheville, NC, USA. I am 71 yo and have been a student and practitioner of Catholic mysticism since 1992. I have enjoyed watching Kabinfo YouTube videos over the past 6-8 weeks. I have found Kabbalah supports many of the mystical concepts I have been taught but in a more direct manner. I also meditate on the Christian Scriptures vs. Kabbalah and am coming to believe Jesus was himself a Kabbalist and his teachings must be viewed in that light. I enrolled to further my knowledge of Kabbala, especially to help in these meditations, as well as in my personal life. I see no dichotomy.
