assez compliqué à lire et à comprendre sur certains articles, mais extrêmement intéressant; procure énormément de questions et de réponses, surtout si lu avec la bonne attitude

Not feeling well on the Jewish New Year in September 1991, the Rabash summoned his prime disciple and personal assistant, Michael Laitman, to his bedside and handed him that notebook. Its cover contained only one word, Shamati (I Heard). As he handed the notebook, he said to Laitman, "Take it and learn from it."

A fellow parent at my son's school got me interested in kabbalah, and so I splurged and bought a copy of this book. It's on the table next to my bed, along with my Wisden cricket almanacs and two honking-huge volumes of the annotated Sherlock Holmes.

I love it. More so I understand all he is talking about from experience.

This is a book of Angelic wisdom. The deepest mysteries of the Bible revealed with nothing gratuitous.

Deep and thought-promoting

Writing on diverse topics which help to better understand and feel the subject matter. Definitelly a book to read and re-read many times.
