Rav Berg takes the reader on a deeper more complex teachings of kabbalah. This book is a little more advance then his other books, but fairly easy to understand. I read the book in a day, it kept me interested and should interest you too. If you liked the information in the Movie "What the Bleep do we know" you will discover this is a kabbalic standpoint to some of the information.

Having read extensively on the subject (but by no means an "expert") I found this book extremely "user friendly" but really explanatory. Some things which were not as clear to me before were made explicit in this book. I highly recommend it to truth seekers.

Frankly, all of Berg's books on Kabbalah are full of terrible translations, censored and edited texts, and horrible commentary. His "explanations" are rejected by all Jewish authorities, Orthodox and non-Orthodox, religious and academic. Berg is attempting to create a non-Jewish and for-profit version of Kabbalah, and it is just embarassing. Instead of reading his nonsense, please check out books on this subject by real authorities and good writers:

Read, for instance, "The Jewish Mystical Tradition", by Ben Zion Bokser; "Major Trends in Jewish Mysticism", by Gershom Scholem; "Zohar: Annotated & Explained" by Daniel Chanan Matt and Andrew Harvey

I would also suggest "The Wisdom of The Zohar: An Anthology of Texts", Ed. Isaiah Tishby, and translated from the Hebrew by David Goldstein.

Science and Torah confirm each other truly. As both Bertrand Russell and the old melamdim, including this Nissim Rov, inform us, the World before the World was created, well, it was a Different World. Causality and the other Laws of Physics just didn't work the way they do now. Then G-d, Boruch Hu, thought, lehavdil, how to get some regularity and entertainment into this Dead Machine? So he caused, lehavdil, the Big Bang. Since then we have had the Lights, and Shells, that scholars and mitzvahniks see, and the Moon, Sun, Oceans, Rivers, Mountains, Trees, Pretty Girls, Snowfalls etc etc etc that the rest of us see. All Khlipah, but I will stick with these Manifestations, rather than bury my face in more Books.
