In Kabbalah, Adam is considered the Root Phase of human spirituality. This is why he is called&nbsp;<em>Adam ha Rishon<\/em>, The First Man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adam was also the first person to write a Kabbalah book,&nbsp;<em>HaMalaach Raziel (The Angel of God\u2019s Secret<\/em>), a small book that included a few drawings and tables. (It should be noted that even though Kabbalists ascribe this work to Adam, there is no written proof that he is indeed its author.) The name&nbsp;<em>HaMalaach Raziel&nbsp;<\/em>comes from the Hebrew words&nbsp;<em>Malaach&nbsp;<\/em>(angel),&nbsp;<em>Raz&nbsp;<\/em>(secret), and&nbsp;<em>El&nbsp;<\/em>(God). Thus,&nbsp;<em>HaMalaach Raziel<\/em>&nbsp;reveals to us the secrets of the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>_____________________________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Off Course<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kabbalah.info\/eng\/content\/view\/clean\/60187\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kabbalah.info\/var\/kbl\/storage\/images\/kabbalah\/nauka_kabbala\/spryyt_ktby_mqoblym\/mihael_lajtman\/sprym\/a_guide_to_hidden_wisdom_of_kabbalah\/introduction\/sidebars\/off_course\/1139403-1-eng-GB\/off_course_small.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Kabbalah books are packed with vivid descriptions of anything from two people walking and talking to their donkey driver to flying towers. As a result, we can be easily misled into thinking that there are worlds where these things happen on a physical level. They do not. All the stories in Kabbalah describe one\u2019s connection to the Creator, one\u2019s level of altruism, and one\u2019s efforts to become one. This is why it is so important to study with a teacher who can provide the correct explanations, which bring you \u201cdown to Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>____________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kabbalistic tradition has it that Adam wrote&nbsp;<em>The Angel of God\u2019s Secret&nbsp;<\/em>more than 5,769 years ago. Adam used allegories and metaphors to tell us how he sensed that he lived in two worlds, the earthly and the spiritual. He felt the entire Upper Existence, but he could not describe it in a manner we can relate to today. He attained it in his feelings and thus pictured it the best way he could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you browse&nbsp;<em>The Angel of God\u2019s Secret<\/em>, it is evident that the author is not an uncivilized, uneducated mammoth hunter. Adam was a Kabbalist of a very high degree who discovered the fundamental secrets of creation in his spiritual journey. He studied the Upper World, where our souls roam prior to their descent to Earth when we are born, and where the souls return after death. Adam tells us how these souls will regroup into one soul and build what we call \u201cman,\u201d of which we are but fragments. More on how that works in Chapter 8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adam, partner of Eve and temporary resident of the Garden of Eden, marks the beginning of the final phase in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":13574,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[27],"class_list":["post-13584","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-michael-laitman"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kabbalah | Adam<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"&quot;Adam&quot;
