Hi Jill,
Philosophically speaking, we can argue one way or another. But Kabbalah is not a philosophy, it’s a science based on the research of the Kabbalist. From their research, we see that we were purposefully created in such a way that we can only grasp reality in this form of duality. Perhaps after we complete the process of correction, new forms of perception will open up for us. But these are speculations, we’ll need to get there and see for ourselves.

Hi Jill,
I’m not sure in what context you’re asking this, but in general, when we rise above our egoistic nature, we’ll begin to relate to life and death in a completely different way.

Hi Jose,
Kabbalah Revealed and Attaining the Worlds Beyond are there to give you a solid foundation in the Wisdom of Kabbalah. It’s good to read through these books from beginning to end a few times. We’ll be learning from them mainly in the fundamental stages of Kabbalah.
Kabbalah for the Student on the other hand is a textbook of primary sources. This is an advanced level book which we’ll be studying from throughout our entire spiritual development. It can be a bit challenging for us without the proper foundation of the previous two books. So for now, it’s best to just stick with reading the recommended reading materials in that book. After you get a good foundation, you can read through that one as well. And in the more advanced phases, we’ll study articles in that book together and in depth.

Hi Ptr,
It depends on the context. In general, light has multiple connotations. When we use the word light, we’re not referring to colors or waves but rather that this is the force that is opposite the desire. All that was created was the desire to receive pleasure. The force that created this desire and fulfills it is the light. So the light is the Creator, the pure quality of bestowal. We can also say that light = pleasure, since this is what fulfills that desire.
