Probablemente esta sea una de las mejores herencias que he recibido de mi formación dentro del judaísmo. Agradecer en primer lugar a mis padres por todo el amor que me han brindado a través de mi vida para llegar a ser lo que hoy soy. Gracias a Violeta Cuño (Z “L) (1943-2008) y a David Sabán (1942) porque ellos han sido mis dos grandes luces. En segundo lugar, a mi esposa Jacqueline Freund porque sin ella hubiera sido imposible trabajar en esta segunda tesis doctoral, y pedir perdón a mis dos hermosos hijos, Max David Sabán y Lucas Elí Sabán, porque tuve que dejar de jugar con ellos muchas horas para poder terminar esta tesis doctoral, quizás cuando crezcan puedan valorar el esfuerzo de su padre. En tercer lugar, a mi director de tesis, al Dr. Joan Prat i Carós, por el estímulo que siempre me ha brindado, porque para mí ha sido un enorme placer conocer su profundidad de pensamiento y su humildad, característica fundamental de un verdadero sabio. Gracias querido Joan por ayudarme, aconsejarme en la metodología y darme ánimos para seguir adelante. Cuando finalicé mi obra Sod“ 22: El Secreto” sobre la mística judía me reuní con el Dr. Joan Prat para formularle la idea de presentar como tesis doctoral en antropología un trabajo exclusivo sobre el Árbol de la Vida como un símbolo muy potente dentro del pensamiento místico del judaísmo. El Dr. Prat apoyo desde el inicio este hermoso proyecto y me dijo que mi obra “Sod 22” me podría servir como base de apoyo a un trabajo de mayor envergadura y profundidad. Cuando en el año 2010 comencé a trabajar sobre “Sod 22” tenía una carpeta de apuntes de mis clases de Cábala, y para mediados del mes de abril del 2011 ya tenía más de tres carpetas voluminosas sobre las conclusiones personales a las que había llegado después de profundizar sobre los grandes pensadores de la mística judía. El cálculo era finalizar la tesis durante el año 2013, aunque a través del esfuerzo realizado concluí la tesis a mediados del año 2012. Quiero agradecer a mi tutor de tesis, el Dr. Joan Prat el consejo de incorporar una síntesis histórica del desarrollo de la mística judía, esto me obligó a trabajar en la lista de grandes cabalistas que se puede encontrar en la primera parte de este estudio. Creo que la idea de situar temporalmente al lector dentro del contexto histórico constituye una clave de esta investigación. Estoy seguro que el Árbol de la Vida es una de las herramientas más potentes para comprender la realidad antropológica desde la visión de la perspectiva cultural hebrea. El Árbol de la vida se fundamenta esencialmente para dar respuesta al enigma de nuestra existen- cia. Quizás las grandes preguntas del judaísmo a lo largo de la historia sean ¿Por qué estamos aquí? ¿Por qué nacemos? ¿Para que vivimos? ¿Y por qué debemos morir? Intentaremos responder desde la más antigua tradición judía a estos interrogantes. 4 UNIVERSITAT ROVIRA I VIRGILI "EL MISTERIO DE LA CREACIÓN Y EL ÁRBOL DE LA VIDA EN LA MÍSTICA JUDÍA: UNA INTERPRETACIÓN DEL MAASÉ BERESHIT" Mario Javier Saban Dipòsit Legal: T.1423-2012 Espero que el honorable tribunal de tesis que juzgue mi obra se apiade de los defectos de la misma, y no obstante aplique toda la rigurosidad académica que crea necesaria.

  • Abbreviations and Explanations of Zohar in English
    Celestial Grace Temple Abbreviations and Explanations of Zohar in English AA – Arich Anpin – the Partzuf of Hochma, the central, initial Partzuf in the world of Atzilut, from which all the other Partzufim originate. Aba – Father – the Partzuf of Hochma. Ima – Mother – the Partzuf of Bina. ZA – Zeir Anpin – Son (with regard to AVI). ZON – ZA and Nukva – Malchut. Nukva, Malchut – a Sefira (singular for Sefirot) or Partzuf that receives from all the preceding Partzufim (plural for Partzuf). Malchut of the world of Atzilut is the sum of all the creatures, all human souls. For this reason it is called Knesset Israel (The Assembly of Israel). Israel – the property of “bestowal,” altruism. This is the property of the Creator, the property ofBina. Israel derives from the Hebrew words Yashar – straight, and El – the Creator. Thus, Israel is the property of aspiring to attain equivalence of form with the Creator. The “nations of the world” are the aspiration to selfish reception of pleasure. Naturally, these two properties are present in everyone, and Kabbalah is the method for the development of the property of Israel within man, with the purpose of attaining the Creator in this life. Kli (vessel) egoistic desires and aspirations are not considered a Kli. A Kli is the corrected desires, suitable for reception of Light. These are altruistic desires with a screen that has transformed them from egoism into altruism. The human heart that receives all sensations is called the Kli (vessel) of reception of sensations. Copyright © 2014 celestialgrace.org 1 Celestial Grace Temple Abbreviations and Explanations of Zohar in English The spiritual vessel, the only vessel that The Zohar speaks of, is the desire to bestow upon the Creator: to hand over all of man’s desires to the Creator, as though saying that he agrees with all his heart to relinquish all of himself for His sake.

  • Rav Yisroel Abuchatzeira, Baba Sali Zt”L
    Issue (# 14) A Tzaddik, or righteous person makes everyone else appear righteous before Hashem by advocating for them and finding their merits. (Kedushas Levi, Parshas Noach; Sefer Bereishis 7:1) Parshas Bo Kedushas Ha'Levi'im THE TEFILLIN OF THE MASTER OF THE WORLD You shall say it is a pesach offering to Hashem, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel... (Shemos 12:27) The holy Berditchever asks the following question in Kedushas Levi: Why is it that we call the yom tov that the Torah designated as “Chag HaMatzos,” the Festival of Unleavened Bread, by the name Pesach? Where does the Torah indicate that we might call this yom tov by the name Pesach? Any time the Torah mentions this yom tov, it is called “Chag HaMatzos.” He answered by explaining that it is written elsewhere, “Ani l’dodi v’dodi li — I am my Beloved’s and my Beloved is mine” (Shir HaShirim 6:3). This teaches that we relate the praises of HaKadosh Baruch Hu, and He in turn praises us. So, too, we don tefillin, which contain the praises of HaKadosh Baruch Hu, and HaKadosh Baruch Hu dons His “tefillin,” in which the praise of Klal Yisrael is written. This will help us understand what is written in the Tanna D’Vei Eliyahu [regarding the praises of Klal Yisrael]. The Midrash there says, “It is a mitzvah to speak the praises of Yisrael, and Hashem Yisbarach gets great nachas and pleasure from this praise.” It seems to me, says the Kedushas Levi, that for this reason it says that it is forbidden to break one’s concentration on one’s tefillin while wearing them, that it is a mitzvah for a man to continuously be occupied with the mitzvah of tefillin.

  • Tiftheriel A.K.A. Tiphtheriel - the Angel of the Sixth Sephira of the Tree of Life

Tiphtheriel - the angel of the sixth sephira of the Tree of Life. http://hafapea.com/angelpages/angels6.html Tiferet 1 Tiferet The Sephirot in Jewish Kabbalah Category:Sephirot • v • t [1] • e tifˈʔeʁeθ]) alternately Tifaret, Tifereth, Tyfereth or Tiphereth, is the] תפארת :Tiferet ("Adornment", Hebrew sixth sefira in the kabbalistic Tree of Life. It has the common association of "Spirituality", "Balance", "Integration", "Beauty", "Miracles", and "Compassion". Description In the Bahir it states: "Sixth is the adorned, glorious, delightful throne of glory, the house of the world to come. Its place is engraved in wisdom as it says 'God said: Let there be light, and there was light.'" [2] Tiferet is the force that integrates the Sefira of Chesed ("compassion") and Gevurah ("Strength, or Judgement (din)"). These two forces are, respectively, expansive (giving) and restrictive (receiving). Either of them without the other could not manifest the flow of Divine energy; they must be balanced in perfect proportion by balancing compassion with discipline. This balance can be seen in the role of Tiferet, wherein the conflicting forces are harmonized, and creation flowers forth. Tiferet also balances Netzach and Hod in a similar manner. In that case Hod can be seen as the intellect where Netzach is seen as emotion. Tiferet also occupies a place on the middle pillar, and can be seen as a lower reflection of Kether, as well as a higher reflection of Yesod and Malkuth.

  • Lacatul Si Cheia
    LACATUL SI CHEIA 41. Rabbi Chiya şi Rabbi Yosi se plimbau pe un drum. Când au ajuns la o câmpie, Rabbi Chiya i-a spus lui Rabbi Yosi, „Cuvintele BARAH SHEET (şase create) cu siguranţă fac aluzie laBERESHEET , deoarece cele şase Zile Cereşti, VAK de Bina, strălucesc peste Tora (ZA), în timp ce altele, GAR de Bina, sunt ascunse.” ZA al lumii Atzilut este numit Tora. Cele şase Zile Cereşti suntVAK de Bina care se află deasupraZA . De aceea, primul cuvânt al Torei, BERESHEET = BARAH (creat) şi SHEET (şase) indică faptul căSfira Bina se întoarce către Sfira Hochma cu scopul de a primi Ohr Hochma şi de a o transfera la ZA. deoarece ZA este incapabil să primească toată Ohr Hochma (GAR de Hochma, Lumina celor zece Sfirot) de la Bina, ci doar VAK de Hochma (Lumina celor şase Sfirot), acest lucru este subliniat în cuvântul BARAH SHEET – ŞASE CREATE. Aceasta înseamnă că ZA primeşte de la Bina, Lumina de la doar şase Sfirot, HGT NHY sau VAK de Hochma, în timp ce GAR de Hochma, Lumina Sfirot KHB, este ascunsă de el. Motivul este că, deşi Partzuf Atik aparţine lui Tzimtzum Aleph (prima restricţie), este obligat să strălucească în jos, peste toate celelalte Partzufim ale lumii Atzilut şi peste toate lumile BYA cu Lumina lui Tzimtzum Bet. De aceea, cu privire la Partzufim inferioare, ele apar ca Partzuf care aparţine lui Tzimtzum Bet. Cu alte cuvinte, intenţionat el şi-a autoimpus o limită exterioară (referitor la celelalte) pentru a permitePartzufim inferioare să primească de la el. De aceea, el a înălţat-o Malchutpe de la Peh la Eynaim şi a făcut unZivug deasupra ecranului ce stă în Nikvey Eynaim, în acest fel dând naştere Partzuf –ului AA.

  • The Lessons of the Four Who Entered the Pardes
    The Lessons of the Four Who Entered the PaRDeS The Dangers Inherent Upon the Path of Ascent By Rabbi Ariel Bar Tzadok Copyright © 1993, 2003 by Ariel Bar Tzadok. All rights reserved. I do not wish to deceive anyone. The Kabbalistic path, referred to in the Talmud as the “PaRDeS” can be a dangerous one for those not properly prepared to walk it. I offer this essay as a clear warning to those who consider themselves ready, all the while that Heaven does not. The Kabbalistic/Prophetic path is a necessary step of spiritual evolution. Yet, it must not be taken lightly. This is the final step in spiritual growth, not the first step or the middle one. Too many people have a juvenile attitude towards spiritual practices. For such spiritual children, it is best to leave them where they are, doing what they are doing. There are many that are not ready to “descend” into the palaces of the Heavenly King. Yet, there are those who have been long ready, and have been waiting for these teachings. It is to you, my ready students, that I write this essay. In order to avoid the pitfalls along the path of Kabbalistic spiritual ascent, there are bits of knowledge that are essential to know. The reason why the Talmud records the following episode is to hint to us what these teachings are. "Our Rabbis have taught, four entered into the Pardes. They were Ben Azai, Ben Zoma, Aher, and Rabbi Akiba. Ben Azai gazed and died. Of him it is written, "precious in the eyes of HaShem is the death of his pious ones" (Tehilim 116, 15).

  • Encyclopedia of Jews in the Islamic World
    EJIW Encyclopedia of Jews in the Islamic World 5 volumes including index Executive Editor: Norman A. Stillman Th e goal of the Encyclopedia of Jews in the Islamic World is to cover an area of Jewish history, religion, and culture which until now has lacked its own cohesive/discreet reference work.
