Fundamentals of Kabbalah

The Fundamentals Course introduces you to key Kabbalistic concepts, including the evolution of desires, the operating program of humanity, the perception of reality and free will. Experienced instructors help you understand the forces that have caused the world to develop from its initial creation until today, and how these forces continue to drive us forward. Each class provides you with the opportunity to ask the instructor questions as the concepts are presented and explained.

The Fundamentals Course gives you the foundation you need to continue your Kabbalistic studies as you learn how to put these concepts into practice.

Advanced Kabbalah

Having established a solid foundation in the basics of Kabbalah in the Fundamentals and Intermediate courses, you can move on to an in-depth mode of study in the Advanced Course.

You will be introduced to the lessons taught by Dr. Michael Laitman, founder of Bnei Baruch and the foremost Kabbalist in the world today. Once a week, your Education Center instructors will meet with you for a review and Q&A session based on one of Dr. Laitman's lessons, giving you the opportunity to dive deeper into the topic from that week.

In addition, you will continue your exploration of the technical aspects of Kabbalah which provide us with the blueprint for the future development of humanity. The Shamati articles will also be introduced. These very special articles by Baal HaSulam carry the essence of Kabbalah and help us connect with it at an intense, personal level.
