1 I Have Been Reading Several Most Interesting Chapters on the Thinking of Roberto Assagioli, the Father of Transpersonal Psycho I have been reading several most interesting chapters on the thinking of Roberto Assagioli, the father of Transpersonal Psychology, as related to Kabbalah. These appear in "Opening the Inner Gates: New Paths in Kabbalah and Psychology" edited by Edward Hoffman. One chapter entitled "Psychosynthesis and Kabbalah" is a comparative study between Assagioli's "Egg diagram" and the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. It is certainly most interesting with lots of practical information, but it is in another chapter entitled "Jewish Meditation: Healing Ourselves and Our Relationship" that one realizes the influence of Kabbalistic thinking had on Assagioli. Here is a quote for your interest and perusal from that very exciting chapter written by Sheldon Z. Kramer. "The Zohar, a major Kabbalistic text, states that the soul has three strands. These three strands are compared to a candle flame. The first part of the candle flame is located near the wick and reflects a black and blue light that is always changing. This lower light is considered the nefesh, or animal soul. The nefesh may be likened to Sigmund Freud's idea of the id, ego, and superego: it is those parts of the personality that are always in flux, owing to inner or outer reactivity based on internal and external desires. Contained within the animal soul is also a variety of different ego identifications based on early childhood experiences that forms one's personality, such as 'the ambitious one,' 'the procrastinator,' or 'the frightened child.' Located directly above the black and blue light is a steady yellow glow in the center of the flame; this section is called the ruach, the divine wind, breath, or spirit. Separate from the nefesh, the ruach has the ability to stand outside all of the inner and outer turbulance with a degree of calm or stability. The ruach state of consciousness can be compared to the eye of the hurricane, which stays calm amid the turbulent winds. It is interesting to note that in all meditation traditions, the breath is a major vehicle of centring oneself for the purpose of refinement of consciousness. Directly above the ruach is the filmy portion of light on top of the candle flame, the neshamah, suprasoul or higher self. The neshamah is the center of unity and bridges all the other parts of the soul into a collective field. The neshamah can be viewed as a catalyst: it participates in all the reactions of the lower two strands, but stands outside them. Another metaphor for the neshamah is that of a prism, which reflects light. As pure white light moves through a prism, a rainbow of colors can be seen. Each of these color qualities, according to the Kabbalah, is reflective of divine attributes such as love, strength, harmony, compassion, patience, tolerance, forgiveness, victory, receptivity, stability, and groundedness. The goal in Jewish meditation is to be able to separate oneself from the identification of the nefesh and attach oneself to ruach with the possibility of bridging with neshamah. Through the refinement of one's attention, one can enter into the ruach state of consciousness and decrease one's reactivity. By training of one's mind/body to realize this goal, one can have a taste of higher centers of consciousness. It is interesting to note that the above description of the three strands of the soul found in the Zohar reflects the foundation of the core ideas of Roberto Assagioli - the father of transpersonal psychology - in the development of psychosynthesis. Roberto Assagioli was of definite Jewish origin. When I visited his library in Florence in 1988 I saw scholarly, philosophical, and modern texts on Jewish mysticism. Through my research, I found 1 Assagioli's papers on Judaism and had them translated from Italian in English. It was clear from his writings that he was involved with his own roots because one of these papers was an address he delivered in July 1953 at the International Camp Youth Section of the World Union for Progressive Judaism in Boulogne/Seine. In these writings Assagioli mentions a couple of times the psycho-spiritual parts of the psyche found in Kabbalah: 'The base of the spiritual psychology of which I am a supporter.....is constituted by the biblical affirmations according to which man was made from the image and resembling God.....from this basis comes the traditional Jewish teaching of the human psychological constitution consisting of three elements: nefesh [animal soul], ruach [divine wind], and neshamah [supersoul]. This represents spiritual elements.....my main endeavor has been to give scientific proof of the evidence and activity of the spiritual soul (neshamah) with the psyche [ruach] as an inspiring and unifying factor.' Assagioli's major map of the psyche, which he calls the egg diagram, reflects the image of the oval shape of the candle flame. The bottom of the flame (nefesh) he called the lower unconscious including some parts of the ego which he labeled subpersonalities. The middle flame (ruach), he called the personal "I," which was the part of the psyche that could stay objective and aware of the variety of identifications found in the lower unconscious. The upper flame (neshamah) Assagioli divided into a general region that he called the Higher Unconscious. This part of the psyche contained pure sacred attributes or what he called "higher qualities," including love, compassion, understanding, patience, humility, tolerance, unity, forgiveness, and joy. The other region of the upper flame was the apex, and the Hebrew correlation corresponded directly to Assagioli's term of the Higher Self, which he also considered in overall unifying center of consciousness..... .....Much of practical meditative work found in psychosynthesis reflects that of practical Kabbalah. Assagioli was careful not to identify his system of psychosynthesis with any one religious or mystical tradition. However, it is clear as we can see from the above descriptions in the Zohar with the main body of his work that some of his main ideas came from the Jewish mystical tradition." It would be interesting to see a complete study of Assagioli's thinking as compared to that of Kabbalah. Maybe some of our Companions on this list are able to enlighten us more on this most exciting subject. Amongst the many incomplete and forthcoming "Series" on this list, I have been preparing one on the "Soul in Man," which, time permitting, I will start to post soon. It certainly is a most important subject, which I had to pay a lot of attention to because of past personal "life" behaviour due to the influence (or control) of my different "selves" opposing each other, and manifesting this most aggressively. I realized at the time that "marrying" opposing principles inside myself was of the utmost importance, if I was to survive in this world. So I dedicated an enormous amount of time to the achievement of that "Sacred Marriage" inside my own being. I suppose that however much you study and learn, you can eventually only speak from personal experience. In any case, no amount of "bookwork" has ever made anybody advanced. Of course, words are valid symbols, but only insofar as they can push you to live out what they represent on paper. No more than that! 2.

  • Interpreting Diagrams from the Sefer Yetsirah and Its Commentaries 1
    NOTES 1 Word and Image in Medieval Kabbalah: Interpreting Diagrams from the Sefer Yetsirah and Its Commentaries 1. The most notorious example of these practices is the popularizing work of Aryeh Kaplan. His critical editions of the SY and the Sefer ha Bahir are some of the most widely read in the field because they provide the texts in Hebrew and English with comprehensive and useful appendices. However, these works are deeply problematic because they dehistoricize the tradi- tion by adding later diagrams to earlier works. For example, in his edition of the SY he appends eighteenth-century diagrams to later versions of this tenth-century text. Popularizers of kabbalah such as Michael Berg of the Kabbalah Centre treat the Zohar as a second-century rabbinic tract without acknowledging textual evidence to the contrary. See his introduction to the Centre’s translation of the Zohar: P. S. Berg. The Essential Zohar. New York: Random House, 2002. 2. For a variety of reasons, kabbalistic works were transmitted in manuscript form long after other works, such as the Hebrew Bible, the Talmud, and their commentaries were widely available in print. This is true in large part because kabbalistic treatises were “private” works, transmitted from teacher to student. Kabbalistic manuscripts were also traditionally transmitted in manuscript form because of their provenance. The Maghreb and other parts of North Africa were important centers of later mystical activity, and print technology came quite late to these regions, with manuscript culture persisting well into the nineteenth, and even into the mid- twentieth century in some regions.

  • Parasha Meditation Vayetze
    בס”ד Parasha Meditation Vayetze Bereishit 28:10-32:3 By Rebbetzin Chana Bracha Siegelbaum Stepping Inwards on the Ladder of Ascent Introduction: וַיַּחֲ �ם וְהִנֵּה סֻלָּם מֻצָּב אַרְ צָה וְרֹאשׁוֹ מַגִּיעַ הַשָּׁמָיְמָה וְהִנֵּה מַלְאֲכֵי אֱ�הִים עֹלִים וְיֹרְ דִים בּוֹ: (בראשית פרק כח, פסוק יב) 1 “He dreamed, and behold a ladder is standing on the earth, but its head reaches heaven…”0F The metaphor of Ya’acov’s ladder lends itself to profound meditation. The ladder symbolizes the connection that links earth to heaven, matter below to spirit Above, and us to G*d. Keeping our Head in Heaven with our Feet on the Ground Netivat Shalom explains that this world is like a ladder standing on the earth, while its head reaches heaven. Through being involved with earthly matters, we can reach the very highest level, until our “head reaches heaven.” We have the opportunity to elevate ourselves and cleave to Hashem, specifically by elevating the earthly lowly matters towards heavenly levels. The Torah verse also teaches us, that even when we are involved in matters of this world, we mustn’t forget to keep our head in heaven. When we really desire to elevate the physical and bring heaven down to earth, then Hashem will watch over us and help us. We learn this from the 2 3 Behold, Hashem was standing over him,”1F – to guard him.2F“ – ”וְהִנֵּה הַ שֵ ם נִצָּב עָלָיו“ following verse 4 When we desire to sanctify ourselves, Hashem will guard us with a protection beyond nature.3F The Ladder Within Ya’acov’s ladder teaches us about how our relationship with Hashem in truth is a relationship with our own inner core.

  • Elements of Jewish Meditation
    ELEMENTS OF JEWISH MEDITATION Introduction Jewish meditation is an ancient tradition that elevates Jewish thought, inspires Jewish practice, and deepens Jewish prayer. In its initial stages, Jewish meditation is a way to become more focused and aware. It enables the meditator to free the mind of all judgments, fears, doubts, and limiting ideas so that the voice of the soul is heard. With practice, the experience can be transformational, opening us to experience the Divine Presence during prayer, helping us discover deeper meaning in our lives, and connecting us spiritually to Jewish tradition. Jewish meditation can ultimately lead us to understand the true essence of Y-H-V-H through the practice of deeds of loving kindness and joyful compassion. Through meditation we can become attentive to the Divine imprint on our lives. I hope that Jewish meditation will become your practice for the rest of your life. It takes time to develop and refine a meditation practice. In this process it is useful to have a spiritual partner with whom you can explore the wondrous moments and the difficult ones. It is also important to keep a journal, where you write your thoughts down after each meditation and share them with your spiritual partner. Over the years Jewish meditation can lead to great spiritual transformation. What is Jewish Meditation? Jewish meditation is based in Jewish mysticism, a tradition present throughout Jewish history with strong ties to traditional Judaism. Jewish mysticism seeks to answers basic questions of life, such as the nature of God, the meaning of creation, and the existence of good and evil.
