In our increasingly polarized world, it's easy to build walls around ourselves, tuning into frequencies that mirror our thoughts, ideologies, and perspectives, thereby silencing the voices that challenge or differ from our own. This self-imposed isolation cultivates ignorance, fuels division, and inadvertently nullifies the existence of 'the other'.
Is Kabbalah magic? Are there exceptions to the laws of nature? Did the Creator intend for us to learn to wield the powerful forces of creation? Is it dangerous to do so? Does Kabbalah engage in alchemy, transmutation, black magic, and other mystical practices?

As geo-political tensions are tightening up around the world, there's talk about a coming shift in balance of power - the "world order". According to historians, there's nothing new here. This has been happening for centuries and hasn't happened since the end of WWII.
Our generation is now expected to experience another shift and along with that, many questions arise: Who will take over? What caused it? Can we stop it? How should we prepare? Who should be worried and why?

Gianni takes us through a 6-part structure of stories and how our life fits into it.
Any Hollywood director would tell us that there is a single formula into which all other details are filled in: exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and denouement.
It is also called the “hero’s journey” where the protagonist in every story must transition from the “ordinary world” to the “special world”.
The really satisfying stories are where this structure is hidden in every sentence, paragraph, chapter, and whole, like fractals. We have a, deeper than the threshold of our awareness, need for this algorithm to unfold again and again. This is why we binge-watch shows; this is why we have to watch them until the end.
Perhaps there is no author that has done it quite to such perfection where every single detail weaves in purposefully and clicks together harmoniously. However, there is an author and director that is greater than any known to man. That is the author of our universe, our existence, and everything that is beyond this reality.
Gianni describes what dreams can teach us about our reality.
The writers of the Book of Zohar said that our present world, compared to the upper spiritual reality they revealed, is like a dream. Actually, we live in a dream within a dream. So although the corporeal dreams we have are just the brain’s metabolism of what has been going on in our lives, they can still hint at the underlying nature of our reality.
Definitions of Kabbalistic terms are a necessary foundation to have a solid grounding in the wisdom of Kabbalah, and not err in understanding the material.
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, Gil Shir will run through the top 7 Kabbalah definitions that you should know in order to situate yourself correctly in the method.
What are the key Kabbalah definitions you should know? What do Kabbalistic concepts like light, Kli (vessel), the ten Sefirot, and others all mean? And why is an authentic Kabbalistic understanding of these terms essential for your spiritual growth?
Scientists show our brains "syncing up" with other brains while playing video games. What are the implications of these findings? How should we consider this in the looming food crisis we are now starting to feel is actually real?
Why has it become normal to think of world peace as naive and unrealistic in today's world? What is peace and what's its direct connection to complementarity? Is there a realistic vision for world peace, or are we simply doomed?
Kabbalah brings a unique twist to the reason why world peace seems so elusive with its razor-sharp take on what “peace” really means, how it connects to the concept of complementarity, and an explanation based on nature’s depths of the conditions required for peace to become a reality.
Join Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon in this Kabbalah Explained Simply, “Complementarity: The Portal to World Peace” explores the deeper reason for world peace seeming so unrealistic, and defines the point where we can enact ourselves in order to discover a portal to a deeper reality—where world peace becomes the truest reality we have yet to experienc
The son of the late Carl Sagan, Sam, reaches out in a heartfelt article addressing all of humanity pointing out the dire state we find ourselves in, even using the term "death spiral".

What's the connection between powerful algorithms that shape human thought and behavior and the potential spiritual development of mankind?

What is the spiritual meaning of Tisha B'Av? What is the significance of the three weeks between the 17th of the month of Tamuz and the Ninth of Av, and why have those dates been burned into the collective consciousness of the people of Israel? How come every major calamity—from the shattering of the tablets by Moses to the destruction of the first and second temples, and the Spanish expulsion—took place on the ninth of Av or during the 3 weeks that precede it called "Between the straits"? Is it just a coincidence or part of a bigger plan?
Join Lio Spiegler in this Kabbalah Explained Simply on Tisha B'Av and the destruction, ruin, and other tragedies that befell the people of Israel and learn the spiritual meaning behind these events, how to correct them, and what's their relevance to your life today.
How far back does Kabbalah's history really extend? What are the key turning points throughout the history of Kabbalah? How does the history of Kabbalah relate to the emergence of the world's three main religions, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam?

In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, "History of Kabbalah: The Origin of Judaism, Christianity and Islam," Gil Shir will trace the history of Kabbalah and show how the world's three main religions emerged through the Kabbalistic lens of development.
What is the spiritual message of the Noah's Ark story? What is the meaning behind Noah and his ark, the animals, the water, and the great flood, and why is this story of utmost relevance today?

Join Markos in this Kabbalah Explained Simply on Noah's Ark to learn the real meaning of this Bible story, and its relevance to your life.

What are spiritual genes, and what are they called in Kabbalah? Where do they come from? Where are they leading you? Why do they have such a great deal of influence over your life, reality, the world, and the universe around you—much more than what you can currently perceive? Also, where is your free choice in this process?
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon will discuss how what we feel as our lives, the world, and reality unfolding in spacetime are actually spiritual genes that constantly calibrate themselves and play out through us. Moreover, by understanding the role of these spiritual genes in our lives, we start accessing a complete picture of reality that clarifies where we come from, where we are now, where we are headed, and how we can affect our destiny in the process.

TGT returns to the crowd favorite segment “A Kabbalistic movie review” where we’re looking at the newly released - Everything Everywhere All At Once.
Nature is a meta-network. When can we observe nature as a meta-network? It's when we can see nature's plan and program in practice—as an attainable, clear, and tangible picture, beyond faith and belief. How is that even possible?
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon will explore the meta-network of nature, and the conscious awakening process humanity is undergoing toward revealing nature as a meta-network.
How is it possible that there's an actual threat of annihilation with nuclear war? Why do we care more about Johnny Depp's trial more than the escalating situation in Ukraine? Can scientists bring cell rejuvenation technology all the way, allowing us to live forever? What's so special about psychedelic experiences?
Researchers finally concluded that anti-depressants may not actually improve anyone's depression. Even worse are the known negative side-effects that come with them. As something that in one way or another affects us all, we should finally be asking, "What is depression?". If we can define that correctly, we should be able to recognize what an appropriate counter-measure would be.
When indigenous peoples and kabbalists discuss holism and oneness, are they talking about the same thing? Is it possible to bridge between two of humanity's most ancient teachings—or do they discuss something fundamentally different?
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon will explore the similarities and differences between indigenous wisdom and kabbalistic wisdom.
Elon Musk offers to buy Twitter and take it private for 43 billion dollars. The idea is this move will "fix" the issues revolving around freedom of speech and open journalism.

How much do your feelings, thoughts, wants, and needs depend on the feelings, thoughts, wants, and needs of others?
Did you ever consider that any change in a feeling, thought and desire of yours is dependent on, and influential upon, the feelings, thoughts, and desires of every single other person in the world?
Also, are you aware of how far-reaching are the implications of such interdependence?
We grow up in a world that instills us with competitive, individualistic values. Our educational systems and our culture teach us how to develop as independent individuals, where the more you can be “stronger, richer and faster” than others, the more you will succeed. Such an approach was arguably suitable for a certain period in history, but as we develop into a new era marked by tightening global interdependence—from the immense exponential human population growth to the worldwide interconnection of our economies, technologies, and cultures—the more we see that a competitive, individualistic approach in an interdependent reality leads to crises on all scales: personal, social, global and ecological.
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply with Markos, we will look into how to master living in the modern world: to realize the error of continuing along the same competitive, individualistic lines we’ve taken till today, and to awaken a globally considerate, cooperative, collaborative and connected path heading into the future.
This paradigm shift is incumbent on us as humans today not just for our happiness and well-being, but also for our very survival.
This course is a journey into understanding life and how all its pieces come together.

Also, it aims to give you tools to upgrade the way you think about and perceive reality, essential knowledge about your nature and how to restore its purpose, and help you attain self-realization.
How exactly is Kabbalah a science? Why has Kabbalah been associated with mysticism for hundreds of years? What is the connection between Kabbalah as mysticism and Kabbalah as a science?
In the 16th Century, Kabbalist Isaac Luria (the ARI) updated the method of Kabbalah as a precise scientific depiction of spiritual attainment. In the 20th Century, Kabbalist Yehuda Ashlag (Baal HaSulam) provided in-depth commentary on Ari's work, in his "Study of the Ten Sefirot," where he elaborated in detail on the science of Kabbalah in a six-volume textbook. With such efforts to describe spiritual attainment scientifically, how is it that most people's initial approach to Kabbalah is via mysticism? Is there a certain stage of mysticism in the approach to Kabbalah?
In this Sunday's Kabbalah Explained Simply, Gil Shir will explore how and when Kabbalah is studied as a science, and how and when it is studied in a way that could be considered more mystical.
Given the right amount of anesthetic, you could walk into a fire without feeling you're harming yourself. Similarly, social influence can be psychologically numbing, to the point that we won't see what's wrong in our society. Are we missing the signals that nature is sending us? How can we read the signals instead of beating the messenger?
This episode is dedicated to your questions and input. So please throw in the chat anything you'd like us bring up during the show and we'll do our best!
From planets pulling together and entering into orbits, to metronomes (of the same frequency, resting on the same base, and being started randomly) synchronizing after a short period of time, through to fireflies glowing in synchrony—we see glimpses of a deeper connection existing in nature.
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon will discuss spontaneous synchronization phenomenon as a law of nature, and will explore the big question that emerges: What about us, humans? What conditions are required for us to become synchronized as a single system?
While nature spontaneously synchronizes, learn why and how humans need to consciously synchronize.
As the war continues between Russia and Ukraine, which both account for about a third of the world's wheat/corn supply, it's becoming a problem and the world is starting to feel it. Meanwhile, we're developing AI to do more things, including replacing influencers on social media and young people are starting to see themselves as "Goblins".
Does it feel like the world is about to plunge into WWIII? How did it happen? Are we doomed to wage wars forever? Can a spiritual war save us from an armed conflict? Where do you enlist for a spiritual war? What kind of training is needed? Who are we fighting? And how do we win it?
Join Lio Spiegler to learn about how the wisdom of Kabbalah describes war at a spiritual level in this Kabbalah Explained Simply.
We can't ignore the war and there's still so much to understand about what's really happening to us during these times. Join Seth, Chris & Asaf where they again try and approach the idea of taking advantage of the opportunity, this tragedy in humanity and how we can come out of it "different humans" that will never need to experience physical war again.
How can we achieve world peace? What forces do we need in order to bring about a much better, harmonious, and peaceful world—one where humanity experiences no less than perfection?
The Book of Zohar reveals that the crises and pains we experience are intended to make us realize how far we are from the perfection of the spiritual reality and to enable our attainment of that reality.
Reading The Zohar thus requires raising the importance of internality (the spiritual qualities of love, bestowal, and connection) over externality (the corporeal qualities of egoism, hatred, and division).
By doing so, we will elevate ourselves to a higher spiritual state, where we discover a harmonious and peaceful world.
The War of Gog and Magog: What are the spiritual roots of war? What powers are fighting for control inside of us? How do wars we see in the world correspond to the great inner war we have started facing as human beings?
2,500 years ago, the prophet Ezekiel described the war of Gog and Magog as spiritual events—above time, space and motion—and thus, relatable to our lives today. For instance, the war of Gog and Magog primarily discusses an inner war expressed in a person working according to the 3 lines of spiritual attainment, yet we can also see the connection of the 3 lines of spiritual attainment with 3 general approaches among humanity to the upper force—which, if imbalanced, can erupt in conflict.
In "The War of Gog and Magog" with Markos, we'll learn the mechanics of the war of Gog and Magog, how to get the upper hand over our inner battles and gain an understanding of the interdependence of our inner wars and the wars we see in the world.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict is clearly stepping beyond the borders of these two countries, as world leaders are being pushed to take sides, in what becomes the breeding ground for another world war.
Why does it seem like we haven't learned a thing from history? Is it possible to stop this downward spiral?
Kabbalah Q&A Live is a live broadcast that takes place every few weeks into the “Kabbalah Revealed” course, and whether or not you participate in “Kabbalah Revealed,” you are welcome to join in, ask Tony anything you want Kabbalah’s answer for, and get your questions answered live.
Kabbalists liken the structure of the whole of reality to that of a tree, with roots and branches. We perceive the branches, which are the consequences. But the roots, which are the causes, are initially hidden from us.
So how does this help see why wars, viruses, natural disasters or any other phenomenon take shape in our world?
What is higher consciousness? How can we unlock and access a higher consciousness? Where are we? We think we live in a material reality that we picture outside of ourselves, and we hold no other perception, so we tell ourselves a story—but it is only a story. Kabbalah explains that we are shattered pieces of a similar consciousness. We start our journey as shattered pieces, which is why we think that we are in a body and that there is a material world, but what we perceive is various shapes and layers of our own consciousness. What if, in our illusion of the material world, we could find people whom we could wake up from this life with, as if out of a dream—breaking out of the illusion of our separation—and discover that we are all one, above time, space, motion, and matter?
As the thought of war between Ukraine and Russia occupies our collective consciousness, we should also ask whether our collective consciousness itself has something to do with it. And if so, does this mean we can do something to prevent the war from playing out in the physical world?
Join us for a deep dive through the lens of Kabbalah.

After reaching to outer space, Jeff Bezos and other billionaires are looking towards the next frontier - defying death itself, by investing in cell rejuvenation technology.

Since the turn of the century, gender identity has become a major driver of new policies, language, and other cultural practices. But beyond the controversy, what is the root cause of our growing preoccupation with gender? Is it a matter of human evolution? Is there a spiritual explanation?
What is the meaning of life? Why are we here? Why do we exist? These are life's most fundamental questions.
As human beings, we all encounter the question of the meaning of life in varying intensities. For some, the question can be satiated with a simple answer, but for some, the question itches away at them, not letting them find comfort—and their whole life becomes irritated by the question.
What is it about us specifically as humans that makes us ask this deepest of questions, which doesn't exist in animals or plants? Should we delve deeper into this question, or is it better just to put it aside and progress with what is clearer?
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply with Markos, we will explore the smorgasbord of ways that the question about the meaning of life has been answered throughout history—albeit through a unique kabbalistic lens.
According to the latest study, the planet is headed towards the 6th mass extinction event soon, which might wipe out all life on Earth. Logically, this should have us shivering in our boots, but it appears as if we're not thinking twice... Why is that? Is there anything to learn about ourselves here? Or is it completely hopeless and we should just let nature have its way with us?
Kabbalah Q&A Live is a live broadcast that takes place every few weeks into the “Kabbalah Revealed” course, and whether or not you participate in “Kabbalah Revealed,” you are welcome to join in, ask Tony anything you want Kabbalah’s answer for, and get your questions answered live.
Since the pandemic began, a new billionaire has been created every 26 hours. Meanwhile more than 160 million people have been pushed to poverty due to the health crisis. That's just one example of how Covid has intensified economic disparity. But why is that? Is nature pushing for greater inequality? Is it just a random side-effect? Or is there a deeper reason?
Can the nature of God be empirically examined, observed, and studied? If we view God as life's operating system, then every science studies the nature of God. This raises the question—how do we define God?
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon will delve into these questions, showing how sciences of this world such as physics, chemistry, and biology study different aspects of the will to receive, and how Kabbalah studies the will to receive in its essence.
What and who can we trust? Today's world is becoming a scary place when we no longer have the answer to that question. "Fake news" has become a household term we use daily in the 21st century, as we realize that news sources don't necessarily tell us what happened, but what they want us to think happened.
What is the connection between money and spirituality? Find out in the upcoming Kabbalah Explained Simply with Lio Spiegler.
The new Matrix film resurrects the question that got the world's attention some 20 years ago with the first film, "is the world really what we think it is?" Since then, the simulation hypothesis became popularized by figures, such as Elon Musk, who actively pursue the answer.

Do you fly up into eternal heaven, or fall into an eternal hell? Do you reincarnate in this world as other people, or even animals, plants, or rocks? Do you keep living the life you led over and over again? Do you simply disappear into nothingness?
Different teachings offer different answers to these questions. Science details how the body decomposes when you die. In general, the discussion around this topic falls into two main categories:
- People who have had near-death experiences and lived to describe what they saw and felt;
- Religious beliefs, philosophies, and other theories offer concepts about the afterlife, reincarnation, and consciousness.

The global military spending is growing once again, with billions of dollars spent on increasingly sophisticated ways for countries to destroy each other. You'd think that during a pandemic, the world would at least slow down the arms race, which begs the question, what will it take for us to change direction? Is it even possible?

What is the reforming light that Kabbalah describes?

Considering how the advent of social media has already made our life extremely digital, will the Metaverse overtake whatever's left of our physical world? Will we prefer to live in a digital reality where we could potentially experience anything we can imagine? Should we embrace it or do whatever we can to stay away from it?
Kabbalah Q&A Live with Tony Kosinec is a regular event as part of KabU’s “Kabbalah Revealed” introductory Kabbalah course programs.
What is reality? Is there anything beyond the material world we perceive, and if there is, what is it? What were the major changes in defining reality throughout history, and what is the next change that humanity is on the brink of discovering?
Take a journey through the scientific approaches to defining reality into the true nature of reality with Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon in this edition of Kabbalah Explained Simply.
What is the true origin of our universe? We can still only measure what happened up to 380k years after the Big Bang, so how can we know for sure what happened before?
As technology advances can we hope to find the answer to the longest running unanswered question of all time or is nature playing a mind game with us? Kabbalists tell us where we can find the answer and how, and it may not be what you were expecting.
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply with Lio Spiegler, we have dedicated a full lesson on a question that we are often asked by beginners: "Was Jesus a Kabbalist?"
The Book of Zohar has been clouded in mystery for hundreds of years. The right approach and intention when opening the Book of Zohar can bring a person into contact with the most powerful spiritual forces in the universe.
If you're not one of the 111 million + viewers who tuned in to the most popular Netflix show ever, Squid Game, then you've at least heard about it.
But what is it that audiences around the world are relating to? If the show aims to portray the game we're all playing in real life, then how can we play a better one?
Seth & Joseph will discuss these questions and more through the lens of Kabbalah.
If God is all-loving, then why does He let so many people suffer?
Does God really care about us if He lets so many people feel so much pain?
The world is full of suffering and we cannot justify so much of the pains afflicted on humanity.
In this Kabbalah Explained Simply, Markos will discuss this major existential dilemma that has plagued humanity throughout its evolution.
We will examine a summary of the ways in which humanity has developed entire worldviews just to respond to this major existential dilemma.
We will also look into the practical way in which we can approach this dilemma that ultimately leads to an outcome of perfection—a state where we reach the justification of all pain and suffering that has ever taken place.

After years of being unconsciously connected to social media 24/7, the plug was pulled and we were disconnected for about 6 hours. Did we learn anything about ourselves, the world, our development…anything at all? What if we could build a completely new type of "social media" that will raise us upward, above our current perception into a totally new level of existence? This is actually what Kabbalists wrote about even before the internet existed.
We're becoming inevitably tied to each other across the planet and with the planet, and yet, we're not sure where we're going. A global transformation is brewing under surface. And some of us can feel it in our guts.
In this episode of Kabbalah Explained Simply, Joseph will take you behind the scenes and show you exactly what reality wants from us in the 21st century.
Whether you're watching politicians on TV pandering to the locals, digging for the latest info on companies worth investing in or even listening to you friend's suspiciously intriguing story, chances are you're being lied to. Is it even worth paying attention to or is it so prevalent that we just accept these norms and need to play along? Most importantly…why is it a good thing?
On the spiritual path, we go through several states, but in general, they can be summarized as ascents and descents.
While we are in the preparation period before entering spirituality, we undergo a “demo version” of these ascents and descents in our uncorrected egoistic desire.
We are so excited to announce our live festive event to celebrate connection and prepare for our upcoming KabU Kabbalah Retreat. This live Q&A is open to anyone who is into learning about how to attain spirituality in an atmosphere of joy and uplifting unity.
100 years ago, having a virtual reality where we can all communicate beyond time and space while drones deliver any goods we need right to our doorstep, would be perceived as mythical. Today it's clear that our technology can soon create world of potential abundance.
At the same time, it's also clear that we are doing a bad job maintaining peace between us while gradually destroying our own planet.
What stands behind this growing paradox? And what kind of science is needed to show us the way out?
Kabbalah Q&A Live is a live broadcast that takes place every few weeks into the “Kabbalah Revealed” course, and whether or not you participate in “Kabbalah Revealed,” you are welcome to join in, ask Tony anything you want Kabbalah’s answer for, and get your questions answered live.
Is Kabbalah simply one of several orders, with its ideas of good and evil, morals and ethics, and a view that provides meaning to some people’s lives, but which ultimately resides upon a nihilistic black hole—or is it something else entirely?
Also, how does Kabbalah respond to the crisis of nihilism unfolding in our current era?
The news has never ben so grim, full of updates from around the world and stories of yet another brick removed from the wall of the tower we continued to build for ourselves over the past century and a half. It's crumbling around us and it looks like there's nothing we can do to counter what seems like an inevitable collapse. Are we just waiting for the end of our civilization or is there a magic "band-aid" that exists to mend all our bleeding wounds in what will need to be an instant?
Today, it is easy to confuse love for infatuation or attraction, and love—as so many of us define it—eventually fades away leaving us with broken relationships. The truth is that true love is about so much more than just chasing that fleeting “fairytale feeling.” What is true love really about?
This Kabbalah Explained Simply with Joseph (Asaf) Ohayon will unravel Kabbalah's perspective on how our thoughts and the feedback we receive from nature are intrinsically interwoven.
Everything that happens is the result of two opposite forces: a positive and a negative force.
These forces are at the basis of the structure of reality, and they describe the nature of evolution. They run throughout reality, from the micro to the macro, from quantum fluctuations to social and economic processes in human society.
Why are more and more people experiencing an identity crisis in our era? Why are so many people questioning their sense of self?
As we live through an era of immense change, it has become a norm for more and more people to question who they are, whether it be in relation to relationships, age, career, role in society, values, spirituality, beliefs, interests, and in general, their meaning and purpose in life.
According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, it is a natural part of human development to question our identity, and it is important for us to seek out our true identity because by doing so, we eventually come to discover it—and it is nothing less than eternal and perfect existence.
The fundamental reason why we humans are not naturally spiritual is that our inborn egoistic nature is anti-spiritual by nature. In this episode of Kabbalah Explained Simply, Gil Shir gives us a simple daily process to find success on the spiritual path.
Where does the question about why we’re here and the meaning of life come from? Why do adults forget about the question about the meaning of life? What do we consider life’s purpose in our current life? Do we actually get fulfillment for all the efforts we exert in existence? Is there a deeper layer of meaning, purpose? What did Kabbalists attain? How can we reach our true meaning in life?

Join Lio Spiegler in this edition of Kabbalah Explained Simply, "The Game of Life According to Kabbalah," in order to find out.
How does the brain work? How do we learn? Why do we sometimes make stupid mistakes? These questions lead us to question the power of thought: How powerful are our thoughts? Can we develop ourselves by using our thoughts? Is thought a powerful force? What can we achieve with our thoughts according to science? How can we compare the development of a caterpillar to a butterfly to human development? What is painting reality around us? Can we influence, harness our thoughts, desires? What is humanity’s next evolutionary state? Intuitively, a thought seems like the weakest force in nature, incomparable to other hidden forces that can change the velocity of an object, for example. Thoughts also seem weaker than physical actions.

Kabbalah explains that everything that's happening in your personal life and in the world around you is driven by a spiritual program. What if you could learn how that program works? How would that change your personal experience? How would it change our experience as a global society?
Kabbalah has been shrouded in secrecy for 1,000s of years, but that's all changing today.
See, today is the time for Kabbalah's revelation. So all the deepest secrets about Kabbalah are set to become revealed.
What are these secrets?

These are all only secrets if you haven't attained them. But in our era, they're supposed to become as clear to you as the back of your hand—and with some guidance, they will.
Moreover, by revealing these secrets, you'll unlock the gates to eternal fulfillment, complete knowledge, supreme connection, and the perception of your soul WHILE YOU'RE LIVING IN YOUR CURRENT BODY.
So why remain in the dark of life's deepest secrets, which are the secrets of authentic Kabbalah?

Wildfires in the US, the hottest day ever recorded in Canada, and temperatures beyond the threshold of human tolerance in South Asia. Is planet earth becoming too hot for us to be in?

What is peace? Is it simply the opposite of war, or is there more to it than that? When we look into the word “peace” from the perspective of the wisdom of Kabbalah, we find a different definition to how the term is commonly conceived, and we also receive a method on how to achieve it.
The scientific community is gearing up towards a cutting edge experiment that involves 5 million dollars, 6 labs around the world and hundreds of participants, in the quest to discover which of the two leading theories about consciousness is correct.
Yet, both theories assume that brain activity, in one way or another, creates consciousness. Is that really so? Could it be the other way around? How can Kabbalah shed light on the riddle of consciousness?
Are you worried about the future of humanity? Do you think that we will develop from bad to worse as we head into the future, or that we will undergo a shift to a good future? What can we and can't we know about humanity's future?
Subconsciously, we want God to exist. It is a natural instinctive response to uncertainty. But outside of our desire for God to exist, how can we find out if God really exists or not?
It turns out that a lot of people who were laid off due to the COVID crisis simply don't want to go back to work. At the same time, scientists say our "insatiable need to consume" is threatening the planet.

Health has always been valued in society, and today the idea of losing fat while gaining muscle has gained significant popularity as a means to a great body and excellent health.
Kabbalah deals with building the soul, not the body. Yet while it doesn’t deal with the body, the principles, do’s and don’ts of fat loss and muscle gain plans hold interesting parallels in our spiritual health. This is what we will investigate in this Kabbalah Explained Simply session.
Dreaming is a psychological process, where our brain sorts and reorganizes itself. Dreaming itself has no connection to true spirituality. On the other hand dreaming, especially lucid dreaming can help us understand how we receive reality and how we can tune ourselves towards spiritual perception to transcend physical barriers and defy physical laws.
Earlier this century, the word "Kabbalah" was often in the headlines with celebrities like Madonna, Ashton Kutcher, and Ariana Grande. Putting aside the question of whether what these celebrities were involved with was authentic Kabbalah or not, what was behind the sudden boost in public awareness of even the word "Kabbalah" through these celebrities?

Through the wisdom of Kabbalah, we learn how souls descend to this world and become dressed in bodies, how our future is determined, what the past was, and what is the reason for everything.
This is how we will become able to know the causes and effects of what happens in our lives, and we will come to know how to relate to our future and correct it.
In order to do so, we need to gain access to the spiritual worlds. We were created in order to live in all the worlds, and the more we progress, the more we will feel a need to discover these worlds. Kabbalah gives us the ability to discover them sooner rather than later, granting us a method to attain them out of our own free will, through learning, wisdom, and increasing connectivity.
It is impossible to grow unless we embrace conflicts, ascend above our egos, make mutual concessions, and feel love for others. Love has to be more important to me than my own opinion and any competition between us. I concede my truth and do not demand the same from others; I only set a good example. It is impossible to demand love. If we touch delicate issues, it is only an opportunity for me to show the extent to which I am ready to pay for the connection. The outcome is that I feel a warm embrace, a sense of giving and closeness. If we do so, no disease will break out.
