One evening in September 1991, Kabbalist Rabash summoned his prime student, Michael Laitman, to his bedside and handed him a notebook, whose cover contained one word-Shamati (I Heard), containing transcripts of Rabash's conversations with his father, Yehuda Ashlag, author of a complete commentary on The Zohar. The following morning the Rabash perished.Following Rabash's legacy to disseminate the Kabbalah, Laitman published the notebook just as it was written, retaining the text's transforming powers.

"I Heard" The wisdom of Baal HaSulam,
By
This review is from: Shamati: I Heard (Paperback)
From its beginnings as a hand written notebook by Rav Baruch Shalom HaLevi Ashlag (Rabash) of the wisdom he heard from his father, Rav Yehuda Ashlag (Baal HaSulam)to this lovely paperback book including the content of all those handwritten pages, Shamati (which means "I Heard") come to us as an essential book of Kabbalah.The notebook written by Rabash was passed on to his long time student and personal assistant, Michael Laitman, who saw to it that the wisdom in that notebook was published for the whole world to read. Rav Laitman carries on this teaching lineage by using the teachings of Baal HaSulam in his organization, Bnei Baruch. There are 243 articles of Shamati, and each one carries with it the essence of Baal HaSulam and his spiritual attainment. We are fortunate to have the opportunity to study these articles over and over again to plumb the depths of their meaning. There are always situations, or questions or concepts that need clarifying, answered or described to us. The answers are here in the Shamati articles. I cannot count how many times I have used this book to provide what I or someone else needed to hear in order to work through a mood or a state and bring balance. The first article, "There is None Else Besides Him," sets the tone for this book in that we are reminded that all comes from Him, and is intended only to bring us Light. This wonderful book does just that to all who seek the wisdom that is written on its pages.

A Holy book for Kabbalah Students,
This review is from: Shamati: I Heard (Paperback)
In the appendix of one of Dr. Laitman's books, the book of Shamati is not listed as beginner, intermediate or advanced reading. It is the one selection listed under textbook, and although I can see why, it is similar to referring to the Bible as a textbook. Instructional yes, but like the Bible, Shamati is a "Holy" book. Shamati is meant for the serious Kabbalah student and by that I mean the students of Bnei Baruch. There is a special reverence to this book, even when you do not understand all that you are reading. We are taught that the purpose of our study is not knowledge, but to attract the Light that corrects. Just having this book in your presence, you can almost sense the Light beaming down. I cannot imagine a student who would not want Shamati on their bedside reading table.
