The Kabalah


Throughout mankind's evolutionary history, teachings explaining his origin, his purpose and his destiny have accompanied him in a form comparable to his understanding as well as the intellectual capacity of his time frame. From Eastern traditions, such as Hinduism and Zoarastrianism, and from the same root source which nurtured those religions, flowed the Kabalah, later destined to be carried forward into the Western world through Christianity and from there, to all established religions. At first, only those of the highest order and intellectual capacity were given to understand the ancient teachings. It was to these individuals that the rest of mankind looked for interpretation and translation. Each time mankind's consciousness moved into a new level or grade, new interpretations came forth. The result is that man has now reached his spiritual adulthood, the level of awareness wherein he must integrate the teachings and through that integration achieve his destiny on Earth.

The Kabalah has always been referred to as a "mysticism," a term which defines the highest level of spiritual comprehension and understanding possible at any given point in time. The Kabalah became the basis of Rosicrucianism and Freemasonry on its highest level and the root of Christianity and other exoteric religions on the lower. Many religions then, actually stem from Judaism. Thus, it was from Judaism, and later through Christianity, that the essence of Kabalah was carried to the Western world where it is now available to all spiritual/esoteric students.

The word "Kabalah" literally means "to receive." What one now receives is his own potential as that potential is developed through the spiritual growth process. One does not merely study the Kabalah, he become a Kabalist, at which time life takes on new meaning. One achieves dominion over his life and begins to follow his individualized purpose for existence.

In essence, Kabalah is the expression of God's word or truth. This word and the integration of its wisdom lead to the truth of man's existence. Truth is not intellectual, nor can it be expressed emotionally. It is experienced within one's total being as one becomes the truth. In that becoming, one reaches a state of knowing which cannot be explained in words. Truth has always been with mankind, but mankind must open himself to receive it. Once man clears himself of the obstacles of conceptual thought, limitation and emotional reactions which have been programmed into the unconscious mind, then truth will be immediate, self-evident and always with him on his evolutionary journey.
