Education of a Kabbalist

by Rav Berg

In this memoir, Rav Berg illuminates the profound bond between teacher and student, painting a beautiful portrait of one of the greatest kabbalists of our time — Rav Yehuda Brandwein. Set in Israel during the tumultuous days before and after the Six Day War, this book traces the development of their special relationship and shares the wisdom gleaned from it. Within its pages, we sense their passion for bringing the ancient wisdom of Kabbalah to the contemporary world. This is the spiritual journey that ultimately resulted in Rav Brandwein passing the responsibility of leadership of The Kabbalah Centre to Rav Berg.

For me a characteristic of somebody who has been working with Kabbalah is humility. Rav is a title what other people can use for those who they respect. It means great. A humble person would never call himself rav, not to mention commit self-publish something using this title. So it was clear that Berg is not humble. But adding the word “kabbalist” makes it worse. As far as I knew such title does not exist.

El libro me ha ayudado a conocer a Rav Brandwein, a interesarme en leer Las 10 emanaciones Luminosas, de Rav Ashlag, a interesarme en Isaac Luria.

Y también hay un puñado de sabiduría muy hermosa.

Pero en general no es un libro que se trate de ir al meollo del asunto. Para quien lea esta reseña, recomiendo más El Poder de la Kabbalah, de Yehuda Berg, y sin duda Nano, de Rav Berg.
