5.0 out of 5 stars An enlightening attempt to clarify the meaning of the Judaic system of mystic wisdom known as the Kabbalah, August 10, 2006
This review is from: Wondrous Wisdom (Paperback)
"Wondrous Wisdom: Everyone's Guide to the Study of Authentic Kabbalah" by Michael R. Kellogg (teacher and lecturer at Bnei Baruch -- the Kabbalah Research and Education Institute) is an enlightening attempt to clarify the meaning of the Judaic system of mystic wisdom known as the Kabbalah. "Wondrous Wisdom" explains that Kabbalah as a system of study, a method to learn and research the spiritual, it is a process of discovery, as opposed to a particular religion or a specific philosophy. Kellogg states "Through this process, one discovers and reaches many different degrees and states of inner capability and wisdom. It enables a person and humanity as a whole to stop making mistakes. " Further Kellogg states: "Contrary to all religions and philosophies, Kabbalah states clearly and unequivocally that spiritual ascent means increased pleasure...Thus, we see that the correction is a process involving the effect of the Upper Light on us. It is not a process of restriction by coercion. That is precisely the difference between Kabbalah and religion. Kabbalah activates the power of the Creator - it is not an oppressing force from the outside. Therefore, when we receive more and more strength from Above, it opens up the channels for greater desires, which can then be corrected and used appropriately (p. 72)." Further chapters detail the Study Method of Kabbalah, Eight Beginning Lessons in Kabbalah, and the Language of Kabbalah. "Wondrous Wisdom" is an invaluable tool to further study underlying potentially profound spiritual development. As such, it is a most needed and welcome contribution to personal and academic library Metaphysical Studies in general, and Kabbalah reading lists in particular.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Intro to authentic Kabbalah, December 1, 2008
This review is from: Wondrous Wisdom (Paperback)
Wondrous Wisdom is a beautifully written practical introduction to the teachings of authentic Kabbalah, as taught by today's foremost expert, Dr. Michael Laitman. Michael Kellogg is one of Dr. Laitman's first North American students and now teacher and he has formatted this book much like a beginner's course on the subject, taking you step by step from the history through basic subject matter. Kabbalah is a scientific study of the spiritual worlds. Wondrous Wisdom is a great way to begin developing the tools you will need on this journey.
