Unlike the other desires, the goal of the desire for spirituality cannot be pictured in our corporeal world. For example, at the level of food, I can picture what it looks, smells, feels and tastes like to eat a certain meal. Similarly, I can picture the goals and fulfillments in the forms of sex, family, money, honor, control and knowledge. With spirituality, however, I cannot picture the goal.

Likewise, many who have encountered Kabbalah have blended it with their own backgrounds, teachings and understandings, without attaining what authentic Kabbalah was intended for. This ongoing mixture over the generations has given rise to the numerous misconceptions (read more about the misconceptions in the &#8220;Kabbalah and Magic&#8221; section of this page, and in the &#8220;Myths about Kabbalah&#8221; section of the website).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4acd2ad e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4acd2ad\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8701b4f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8701b4f\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1de1af9 p-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1de1af9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>So what then is Kabbalah?

Everything that Kabbalists discovered between the time of the First Temple and the Second Temple is expressed in\u00a0The Zohar\u00a0at the level of the end of correction. Also, the uniquely integral way in which the book was written\u2014where Rabbi Shimon spoke, Rabbi Aba wrote, and the other Kabbalists shared their revelations\u2014makes it suitable for any person who will ever wish to use it to spiritually progress, as it contains a unifying inclusion of different viewpoints of the spiritual worlds.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04090e5 p-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"04090e5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Zohar\u00a0was concealed for a long time and only became revealed in the 11th century in Spain, thanks to Rabbi Moshe de Leon, then followed a few more stages of concealment and revelation until Kabbalist Yehuda Ashlag (Baal HaSulam) worked with it in the 20th century. Kabbalists pointed to these modern times as those when\u00a0The Book of Zohar\u00a0would become revealed and even necessary for humanity to use in order to make a significant transition from what is called \u201cexile to redemption,\u201d i.e. a state of being locked in our egoism, where we prioritize self-benefit over the benefit of others and nature, to a state where we exit our egoism and become beneficial parts within the natural system that we share. This is why Baal HaSulam wrote his monumental\u00a0Sulam\u00a0(Ladder) commentary to\u00a0The Book of Zohar.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-15ce556 p-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"15ce556\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>It is written that\u00a0The Zohar\u00a0is \u201ccaged behind a thousand locks,\u201d which are locked with different keys so that if we read it without any preparation, we would have no idea what we should do with it or how to use it correctly. This is why Baal HaSulam wrote his\u00a0Sulam\u00a0commentary as well as four introductions to\u00a0The Zohar, so that we would gain the keys to be able to unlock it and use it
