Kabbalah is part of an ancient tradition ofexploration. The domain of exploration is thehuman condition. For some people the experienceof living in the world is not enough;because we are self-conscious we can observeourselves in the process of living, and we canobserve ourselves observing ourselves, andimmersed in this introspective hall-of-mirrors,people have attempted to find meaning andmake of sense of it. Morality, ethics, metaphysics,theology, science and mysticism are consequencesof a long tradition that places humanexistence inside a larger framework. The truth,as Chris Carter observes, is out there.

A Depth of Beginning Notes on Kabbalah The domestic cat is a curious creature. Anyonewho has lived with a cat will have becomeaccustomed to finding the creature on top of thewardrobe, in the attic, beneath the bed, underthe floorboards, and inside each and every cardboardbox that appears in the home. Human beings are curious creatures too,every bit as curious as cats, and differ only inbeing less fascinated by the interiors of emptycardboard boxes. For many people the urge toexplore is as vital as eating, drinking and sleeping.游客,如果您要查看本帖隐藏内容请回复
