No wisdom, and not about Kabbalah.

Things you should know: Philip Shraga Berg, a former insurance salesman, claimed to be a rabbi and started his own Kabbalah religion called "The Kabbalah Centre". 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.

Finally, he isn't even accepted as a rabbi or as a Kabbalist by any of the Jewish denominations, and his work is rejected as totally inaccurate by modern-day scholars. Now his sons are writing books using the same phony, non-Kabbalah ideas in order to make a profit. This really insults those who wish to truly learn about this topic. So 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.

This is a good place to start.

This book answered a lot of questions for me, clarified many spiritual concerns, and inspired me to do better in life and be a better person. That would be enough to recommend you read it. In addition, I feel closer to the Creator and an important part of this life. I have never felt this way. The author leaves religion and fear out of it and explains things in a way I can understand.

(Any spiritual quest must be taken on with an open mind and an open heart. Everything is not "The Truth" but there is "Truth" in everything).

How I Returned to Spirituality

So, I just posted my first Amazon review, and now I'm on a roll...

The Way was the first book I read on Kabbalah, and since then I have read other material by the Kabbalah Centre, Bnei Baruch, and Hasidic sources. It was all new for me and have revolutionized the way I look at the world around me and the way I understand my Creator. Many people throw a lot of insults at the Kabbalah Centre, but they, and this book in particular, have done nothing but encourage me to seek after sincere and deep spirituality.

Of course, there are deep parts of kabbalah that are only accessible after years of study, but this book shows how a divine, loving Creator makes Truth accessible to all people. This was the first step for me to an amazing journey. I encourage whoever is hungry for real understanding, peace, and spirituality to pick up this book! It's an introduction, and it doesn't claim to be anything more, but it can change your life!
