About Bnei Baruch

Bnei Baruch is a non-profit organization committed to sharing the wisdom of Kabbalah in order to raise humankind’s level of spirituality. Its founder and president, Kabbalist Rav Michael Laitman, PhD, was the disciple and personal assistant to Rabbi Baruch Ashlag, son of Rabbi Yehuda Ashlag (author of the Sulam (Ladder) commentary on The Book of Zohar).

Bnei Baruch provides individuals of all faiths, religions, and cultures with the precise tools they will need to embark on a fascinating journey of self-discovery and spiritual ascent. Its teaching method focuses primarily on the inner processes that people experience, each at his or her own pace.

In recent years, a massive worldwide search for the answers to life’s questions has been gaining momentum. Society has lost its ability to perceive reality as it is, and in its place, superficial and often misleading concepts have appeared. Bnei Baruch reaches out to all those who are seeking awareness beyond the ordinary, who wish to understand their true purpose for being here.

Bnei Baruch’s approach to understanding our experience of life on earth is both practical and reliable. By studying Ashlag’s method, based on authentic writings, we can overcome the trials of everyday life, and initiate a process by which we will move beyond our present boundaries and limitations.

In addition to Kabbalah Today, Bnei Baruch offers a variety of avenues for further study. Among them are Kabbalah TV (www.kab.tv), the online learning center (www.arionline.info), and www.kabbalah.info, the largest, most comprehensive Kabbalah site on the Internet.

Bnei Baruch welcomes people of all ages and lifestyles to engage in this rewarding process.

About Kabbalah Today

In 1940, Kabbalist Rabbi Yehuda Ashlag (Baal HaSulam) published the first and, as it turned out, the last issue of his Kabbalah paper HaUma (The Nation). Its aim was to introduce the ancient wisdom of Kabbalah in a contemporary style and language. The paper was shut down by the British Mandate authorities after having received malicious (and false) information that the journal propagated communism. Nevertheless, the goals for which The Nation was published are even more valid today than ever.

Kabbalah Today continues the spirit of The Nation. It is a Kabbalah paper that shares the ancient wisdom of Kabbalah in a contemporary style, and aims to reach people from all walks of life. Its sections provide readers with a wide variety of content, presented in different styles and approaches, while guaranteeing that the material is true to authentic Kabbalah texts such as The Book of Zohar, The Tree of Life, and the writings of Rabbi Yehuda Ashlag.

Readers are welcome to read the paper in any order they choose, from back to back, a single article that suits them, or simply contemplating one of the questions and answers interspersed throughout the paper. No prior knowledge is required to benefit from the texts.

It is our hope that you will enjoy reading Kabbalah Today as much as we enjoy making it.

Sincerely,

Kabbalah Today editorial staff
