El poder de la Kabbalah. 13 principios para superar los desafíos y alcanzar la realización
Is it possible to turn the rush that comes from closing a business deal or having a brief, passionate affair into an enduring sense of wholeness and peace? Kabbalah, according to its increasingly large group of practitioners, is the path from that fleeting feeling of pleasure that most people settle for to the lasting fulfillment that is our birthright as human beings. In Le Pouvoir de la Kabbale, renowned teacher Yehuda Berg shows how to view and navigate through life by tapping Kabbalistic truths. He explains the key process of transforming from a reactive to a proactive being and how this change can trigger increased creative energy, greater personal power, and a stronger and more satisfying sense of life. These teachings include: embracing problems and obstacles as true opportunities for spiritual development; making miracles through positive thinking; and accepting responsibility for what happens in one's life.

ریویویی در وصف و خوبی های این کتاب اینجا در سال ۲۰۱۷ نوشته بودم که حالا پاکش کردم، دلیلش این هست که در ریویوی من حالت دعوت به خوندن این کتاب یا اشنایی با این دیدگاه دیده میشد که نیازی به این کار نیست و نبوده ! و دیگه این کار و دعوت کردن به خوندن چیزیو که فقط یک کتاب ازش خوندم رو قبول ندارم ! از اون سال تا به امروز هزاران بار تغییر کردم و بینشم به همه چیز چنان تغییر کرده که دیگه میل به تایید و تکذیب خیلی چیزها ندارم و موضع خودم رو آزاد از قضاوت میگذارم، تنها چیزی که در مورد این کتاب در سال ۲۰۱۹ برای گفتن دارم این هست که نظر موافقان و مخالفان این روش یا این کتاب یا کابالیسم رو موشکافانه بخونید و بی طرف و به دور ازش مشاهده اش کنید، نیازی نیست برای سر در اوردن از چیزی در اون چیز غرق بشیم، ممکنه اون غرق شدن گاهی ضرر و زیان رو ایجاد کنه، خوندن خیلی چیزها و دانستن شون جنبه میطلبه که جز سربازان مدافع اون روش و بینش نشیم و منظورم این هست که تبدیل به کوران عاشق و سینه چاک هرچیزی نشیم، رها باشم و به دور از دین یا سایر روش هایی که میگن ما خوبیم ! و سعی در اثبات خوب بودنشون دارند، تمامی تلاش ها برای خوب جلوه دادن ادیان یا روش هایی مثل کابالا فقط از ایگویی ناسالم میاد، روشی پاک و منشی پاک دنبال جذب افراد و شست و شوی ذهنی اونها و سرباز و مدافع ساختن برای اون مسیر و تفکر نیست ،روش و منش و دیدگاهی پاک فقط حکم معرفی کننده و معرفی شونده رو داره نه دعوت کننده و انتخابِ تفکر و منش و مسیرش به کل در دست افراد هست و شست و شوی ذهنی درش دیده نمیشه و نمیگه ما برعکس تصور بقیه خیلیم خوبیم و ... و بعد بیاد یه کتاب در وصفش بنویسه! بیدار و هشیار باشید، به قولی هیچ کس حقیقت رو نمیگه و اعتراف نمیاد کنه و بگه که ماست من ترشه ، بلکه میگه از عسلم شیرین تره !

First off, if you have read Mr. Berg’s book, “Living Kabbalah”, please attempt to forget everything that you’ve read. This book is better. Much better.
However, a previous criticism of Mr. Berg’s work is that the parables and teachings are used throughout all of his books. It’s one thing to say the same thing and tailor it different ways, like Abraham does through the Abraham-Hicks works. It’s another to basically say the same example for the same concept, book after book. I found it too easy to glance over and tune out sections of Mr. Berg’s work due to the “heard that before” complex.
But, let’s get to the meat of the review:
Mr. Berg states that human beings are a composite of our desires. Human beings operate on three different desire levels: Level one (lust) , level 2 (intangible motivations such as status, power and honor) and level 3: higher motivations relating to wisdom, knowledge and answers. It is from this that the motivations create our life in the manifested world.
Again, the Light is explained – however, in way more flowery adjectives than needed. Light is the Kabbalah representation of the energy of God / the will of God. The 1% (the world of physical manifestations) and 99% (the collective unknown / unseen matrix) are explained. The bread of shame complex (the reason for the Light and the Vessel to split, creating the cycle of incarnation as a way for the Vessel to manifest and create with the Light) is explained in a much better detail than I’ve read in Mr. Berg’s previous works. The Ten Sefirot (tree of life) and the concept of duality between the sub worlds is explained in a very easy to access manner, leaving the reader to want more.
Mr. Berg’s summary of the meaning of life, the individual spark of Light to change itself from a reactive force to a proactive force, was surprisingly beautifully explained. It is the ultimate in self-mastery and operating from the spark of the Cause, rather than the outside world of the Effect. But of course, Mr. Berg explains that this can only be achieved through removing the ego and becoming selfless and proactive in helping others.
Outstanding aspects: Mr. Bergs explanation of Time as a 30-story building on page 149. The explanation of tikkun, which is the Kabbalah version of karma energy. The story of the Michael and the mission money on p211 was an eye opener of how to experience life in the proactive expression of the Light rather than reactive nature of the “I’m going to kick some ass” ego. It really brought home the principle of Certainty in a way that nothing else could.
Parts that I still have a challenge with: The overwhelming concept that one should seek out suffering to allow constant practice to connect with the Light. Specifically, that one shouldn’t exist in a state of self-praise. What is so bad about having self-esteem about your accomplishments? My own personal challenge – but still there.
Overall, this book is a winner. Read this before or instead of “Living Kabbalah”, as I consider it a much better book.
I leave this review with one of the best quotes within this work, “The process is the fulfillment.”

In this review, I am only commenting on the quality of the writing/methodology presented herein. Rabbi Yehuda Berg has given us a way of living that is loftier than most of us consider. Author Berg is known as “The People’s Kabbalist". Principles within prescribe a course in which to eradicate negativity within the human vessel.
"Happy is he who is present...will merit that light of joy of the King. In relation to that time, it is written: "And I will refine them as silver is refined and will try them as gold is tried." (Zechariah 13:9)
---Zohar, Shemot 15:96-97"
Within we come to know that by shutting down a lower animal nature or reactiveness, we are able to manifest peace within ourself. Additionally, there are concepts of stoicism applied within his teachings. Yehuda Berg was named “One of the Top Rabbis in the US” by Newsweek. Wisdom is a constant theme and comes from making complex to simple.
A strong paradigm is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Via creativity this composer achieved the mastery of “thinking” the full score before it was penned. It was as if he orchestrated all the parts, and such transcended what we commonly refer to as time. This light which some refer to as inspiration is what Wolfgang called “a rush.” Opponent is real and is manifested from within. Read.

I have read a great many self help books and some on Kabbalah. This book by Rav Berg is not a detailed exposition of the mysticism of Kabbalah as such but rather a book of how the practical wisdom enshrined in the ancient science of Kabbalah can give us the tools to completely change our lives and live full, meaningful, plentiful , happy and healthy lives.
This book contains true enlightenment, and comfort as well as giving us the tools to bring balance and fulfillment to our lives and abolish emotional pain and fear.
The author explains Kabbalah as an ancient hidden wisdom that reveals and unifies the physical and spiritual laws of life.
As the source of all spiritual teachings of this planet, predating religion, Adam and Eve and even Creation of the world itself.
He explains how the Kabbalah has influenced the most important thinkers and scientists throughout history such as Aristotle, John Dee, Isaac Newton,. Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein.
As Rav Berg explains 'Kabbalah was and continues to be the original technology of life. It's the science of the soul and the physic and metaphysics of fulfillment'
This books explains our inner being as being driven by desire, We are described as a vessel and light is used as the code word , a metaphor offered by the ancient kabbalists to convey the broad spectrum of fulfillment for which human beings long.
Rav Berg explains how the ancient wisdom of Kabbalah can eradicate the chaos that causes unhappiness in our lives, turn on the light and vanquish the darkness.
Pushing back of the light is resistance and we have to overcome the resistance which constricts the light and creates darkness in the vessel, Kabbalah explains how we can do this.
Rav Berg explains how Kabbalah teaches us how to remove the layers of cloth one strip at a time to reassemble the puzzle of Creation and bring even more light into our lives"
He instructs us how mediation on certain Hebrew letters he gives here can :
1 Remove compulsive or recurring negative thoughts
2 Arouse total certainty in any situation
3 Arouse healing power
4 Remove negative forces from people or places
5 Generate the energy of financial sustenance
6 Remove egomania
7 Eradicate the force of death
8 Return to the seed level of our existence
9 Give us the strength to stand after we fall
10 Give us the courage trio speak and hear the truth
He lists and expounds on Kabbalah's 13 rules of the game
And lastly gives us a brief history of Kabbalah. And the roles played by including others Abraham, Moses, Pythagoras, Plato and Aristotle, Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai and Rabbi Isaac Luria

"Chi siamo? Di che cosa siamo costituiti essenzialmente? Di che materia siamo fatti, qual è la nostra essenza, il nostro vero nocciolo? Avete mai provato a riflettere su questa domanda? La Kabbalah usa un'unica parola per definirci: DESIDERIO! Desiderio in MOVIMENTO"
Questo libro mi è stato regalato da un'amica che conosce bene il mio interesse per tutte le forme di ricerca spirituale. Non conoscevo la Kabbalah e devo dire che è stata davvero una bellissima scoperta.
Questo libro è stato scritto dal figlio di un rinomato Kabalista e serve proprio come approccio introduttivo per spiegare a chi non la conosce i capisaldi attorno a cui ruota una delle più antiche spiritualità del mondo.
Devo dire che al suo interno ho trovato spiegazioni chiare e principi universali che oltrepassano i singoli credo e le religioni che nel tempo si sono formate attorno ad essi.
Vivere una vita felice e appagante è lo scopo della ricerca della Kabbalah e in questo libro è spiegata la strada che gli antichi Kabalisti hanno tracciato per realizzare questo desiderio che appartiene ad ogni essere umano.
Ancora una volta, questa bella lettura mi conferma che in ogni "strada" puoi trovare un pezzettino di quel puzzle che piano piano comporrà il senso di quel "grande rompicapo che è la Vita".

Quite inspiring, easy to read and understand... agreed that The Bible is a code but humanity treat it “too literally”. Enjoyed the “Resist” & “Be Proactive” philosophy....in general, that means - SELF DISCIPLINE (again!)
Well, we all would love to get more LIGHT (and access to 99% ) ...but how committed are you? :)

I got this book as a present from a good friend, so I read it. I was curious at first, but after 200 pages I really wanted to get to the last one. I have read several self-help/mystic books and most of them I have enjoyed at least partially. This one is an exception, its full of dumb examples, the author tries really hard to convince the reader that the Kabbalah is THE TRUTH, that its even science and the message behind is quite greedy and selfish, it's spirituallity for your pocket and for "success".
I'll leave the Kabbalah for Madonna and the Hollywood gang.

This is a quick overview of Kabbalah that is interesting in a variety of ways. One way is its take on the purpose of the existence of evil.
"A burning candle emits no light against the backdrop of a brilliant sunlit day. But in a darkened football stadium, even a single candle is clearly visible. Similarly, the Vessel was incapable of creating and sharing in a realm already radiating Light."
I disagreed with the author's statement that "It makes little sense...to ponder the source of infinity when we cannot truly grasp or behold the concept of infinity itself." His illustration for this was that we can enjoy sunlight, but cannot stand on the sun. Still, we can and do ponder the sun, not just its sunlight.
In all, this book presents a good lense through which to see freshly again one's own faith. But, for me, Kabbalah falls into the age-old trap of so many religious institutions that have a need to codify and concretly define God and truth (here into 72 names of God and a ten-dimension curtain).
Still, its final and lasting message is great:
"Love thy neighbor as thyself. All the rest is mere commentray. Now go and learn."

I'm currently taking a free Kabbalah course at http://edu.kabbalah.info/home. This book is the most simple, easy to follow piece of literature I've read on the subject or any subject for that matter. Some of the texts and articles I've read are complicated in the terms and abstract descriptions used since for the layperson, Kabbalah requires interpretation from the teacher or author. The author Yeuda Berg has a wonderful weekly blog and youtube channel (yehudaberg) that I find clear, relatable and inspiring. One doesn't need to practice or understand Kabbalah to receive the wisdom his insights offer.

Brilliant beginner's guide to a stupendous resource that I would be foolish not to act upon. The discourse on The Opponent and the ultimate remedy "Resistance" is of epic proportions. I intend to read this book again to reinforce it's precepts and to achieve transformation for the good. Of course, the journey of transformation of consciousness is continuous and unending.

This book started out with a very interesting reconciliation of Genesis and the Big Bang Theory. Later the book seemed to be very superstitious. When I researched the author, I discovered he is not considered a universally well-respected expert on Kabbalah. While there may be some wisdom here, it seems that it may not be authentic Kabbalah teachings.
September 20, 2017
I had a love/hate relationship with this book. So many of the concepts resonant with other ideals I try to live by. But this essential information was muddled by the use of poor metaphor and comparisons to scientific discoveries. I don't need the erroneous pseudoscience to support my spiritual practices.

This is a simple introduction to a complex philosophy. If you are a seeker of something structured to meet the quantum world, the Kabbalah has stood the test of time and is extremely noteworthy in this troubles day and time.
September 1, 2007
so basic and yet so profound. it's part big bang theory, part christianity, part The Secret and part good old-fashioned karma. reading this book is like meeeting someone for the first time and feeling like you've known them for years.

Gosh - what didn't I learn from the book. It started my journey as a student of Kabbalah. The lessons and the journey have been incredible. I could probably give 20 Kabbalah books I've read, but this one started me off -

Grāmatu par Kabalu lasu pirmo reizi, bet laikam savā laikā esmu pārlasījies visādas "mistiskās" grāmatas par sevis un savas personības izkopšanu, ka ir tāda "tie paši vēži citā kulē" sajūta.
Grāmata ir "pietiekami" laba, lai atgādinātu par to, kā būtu jādzīvo, bet ne pietiekami laba, lai iedvesmotu tagad ķerties visām tām mācībām klāt.
Es varu pateikt to vienā teikumā: dots devējam atdodas. Respektīvi - izkāp no komforta zonas un pretojies savtīgām vēlmēm (piedrāz savu EGO).

This book is a great introduction to kabbalah. It teaches the very basic concepts and is rather easy to read. It took me 2 weeks to read and I feel like I understand the bases of Kabbalah. I really recommend it as a first approach to Kabbalah. If you at expecting a profound explanation this is not the book though, just for beginners.
January 22, 2020
I wasn´t sure at the start, however, the deeper I went the more I felt an opening of my understanding. Great read, thank you.

Es un buen libro pero sentí que leía todo el rato lo mismo, solo iban cambiando los ejemplos, al final todo se resume en no ser reactivo y pasar a ser proactivo en la vida.
March 21, 2022
A very quick and enjoyable read, only took me two days. Lays out Kabbalistic principles in a straightforward way which is quite easy to understand. I'd reccomend it for anyone beginning a journey of studying Kabbalah.

I so wanted this to be a worthy phylosophical book. It is so vague in all its sentences that it makes it hard to apply anything practically from it - however I wanted to do it.
It left me with a heavy smell of pseudo-something that I just read. I can’t follow something that mixes God, quantum world, “99% world”, “The Light”, and other made up things. It just doesn’t work for me.

A brilliant book about the Kabbalah.
If you are curious about the Kabbalah’s teachings including its history, the doctrine and etc, you should definitely pick this book up.
I have always found Kabbalah extremely intriguing, but it wasn’t till recent years that detailed books about it were published, and “The Power of Kabbalah: Technology for the Soul” is a great example of a introductory guide to the Kabbalah dogma.
Religion is a really sensitive topic and I personally don’t believe on people shoving their beliefs down people’s throats, but what is great about this book is that, at no point it forces you to believe in the Kabbalah thinking nor it insults any religion.
It is a really quick, easy read. The large font along with the informational style of writing- bullet points, brief sentences and paragraphs, makes the reading extremely enjoyable.
This book had a really positive impact on me and I am really interested in reading more books on the topic.
Regardless of whether or not you choose to follow the teachings its undoubtedly an interesting, powerful read that I would recommend to anyone.
Don’t be hesitant to pick up this book due to the heavy nature of the subject; like I said before they did a fantastic job of making it reachable for anyone to grasp.

I have always found Kabbalah extremely intriguing, but it wasn’t till recent years that detailed books about it were published, and “The Power of Kabbalah: Technology for the Soul” is a great example of a introductory guide to the Kabbalah dogma.
Religion is a really sensitive topic and I personally don’t believe on people shoving their beliefs down people’s throats, but what is great about this book is that, at no point it forces you to believe in the Kabbalah thinking nor it insults any religion.
It is a really quick, easy read. The large font along with the informational style of writing- bullet points, brief sentences and paragraphs, makes the reading extremely enjoyable.
This book had a really positive impact on me and I am really interested in reading more books on the topic.
Regardless of whether or not you choose to follow the teachings its undoubtedly an interesting, powerful read that I would recommend to anyone.
Don’t be hesitant to pick up this book due to the heavy nature of the subject; like I said before they did a fantastic job of making it reachable for anyone to grasp.

Aunque he leído otros libros sobre el "pensamiento positivo", lo que se expone en El Poder de la Kabbalah me hace sentir que todo el conocimiento parte de aquí, de esta tradición tan antigua.
La Kabbalah promete que se recibe "más Luz" al dejar de ser reactivos. Aunque en otros libros (no de kabbalah) se habla más o menos de lo mismo (con otras palabras), Yehuda lo explica con ejemplos maravillosos. La promesa de que ser proactivos cambia la realidad física deja de sonar fantástico cuando ves la lógica que hay detrás. No se trata más de un deseo desesperado. Sin embargo, cambiar el comportamiento animal es difícil. Pero la recompensa de tener un flujo constante de Luz en nuestras vidas (paz, certeza, abundancia, alegría, "coincidencias maravillosas") vale ese gran esfuerzo de transformarnos.
Han pasado años desde que empecé con la Kabbala. En mi caso, mi vida se ha transformado por completo. Pasar de seres reactivos a proactivos es la llave de la abundancia.

Reglas simples, aunque no tan fácil de poner en práctica debido a nuestro EGO, pero si las implementamos nuestra vida mejorara en todos los aspectos y hasta más de lo que podemos imaginarnos.
Como dice al principio no creas, ponlo a prueba, y es muy fácil ponerse a prueba porque sirve para cualquier situación y SI FUNCIONA!
Otra cosa que me impactó es que encontré la mejor explicación a dudas existenciales como la Creación, Satan (ego), intuición, el porque de tanto sufrimiento en el mundo, entre otras.
Ayuda a expandir la conciencia, a entender mejor las enseñanzas de la Biblia y ponerlas en práctica para una vida llena de bendiciones y al implementar estos cambios en nosotros mismos contibuimos a cambiar el mundo.

August 2, 2012Some interesting philosophical ideas and arguements promoting this jewish mysticism. It is an advertisement for a larger school of discipline which I do not gave too much faith for or trust. The idea that modern physics and the 10 dimensions being in agreement with their sephirot is a boastful statement which proves nothing. Just as the big bang being likened to the word of G-d or Ohm of Sanskrit Hindu faith. An interesting look at monotheistic thought.

Qualche spunto interessante. Un linguaggio che, per restare semplice, risulta povero. Lo credevo un testo per avvicinarsi, da profani, a un tema lontano. Mi sono imbattutto in un libercolo 'di cassetta'.

Turned off by the attempts to join science and spirituality. It was done badly and doesn't line up with actual science. Also, I tend to object to all things spiritual being "other" in the sense that it comes from some different, unseen realm. Not for me.
