The Song of Songs is a Kabbalistic text dealing solely with one\u2019s perception of the Upper Worlds. This composition describes the states that a soul experiences as it climbs up the spiritual ladder, from the first degree to the complete and eternal bonding with the Upper Force, the Creator.<\/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-8fb9bd9 p-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8fb9bd9\" 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>Rashbi reveals what happens to an individual whose earthly life has terminated without having begun the correction process of one\u2019s soul.

They wrote about what they discovered in books such as Raziel Hamalaach (The Angel Raziel), Sefer Yetzira (The Book of Creation), Etz Chaim (The Tree of Life), and others.<br \/>Of all the books, the most seminal, mysterious, and profound is The Book of Zohar (The Book of Radiance). Its author is the great Kabbalist Rabbi Shimon Bar-Yochai (Rashbi). The Book of Zohar describes the hidden system of the Upper Guidance. It depicts the worlds, the great powers that govern them, and how one who chooses to study Kabbalah affects his or her own fate and that of humanity.<\/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-45fb23f p-0 max-420 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"45fb23f\" 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 also explains how every event cascades from the Upper World to ours, and the dressings it acquires here.

The great 18th century Kabbalist, The Vilna Gaon (GRA), wrote in his book Kol HaTor (Voice of the Turtledove) that the process of the revelation of the Kabbalah would begin in 1990. In his book, Even Shlomo (Solomon\u2019s Rock), Chapter 11, he even stated that redemption depends primarily on the study of Kabbalah.<br \/>The great Kabbalist, the Rav Kook, the first Chief Rabbi in the land of Israel (then called Palestine), explained that \u201cthe great spiritual questions that were once resolved only for the great and the excellent, must now be resolved to various degrees within the entire nation\u201d (Eder HaYaker ve Ikvey HaTzon, p. 144).<\/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-572a474 p-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"572a474\" 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>But it was Baal HaSulam who turned the words of the Kabbalists from a vision to a tangible reality.
