A study of the secret tradition in Israel as unfolded by sons of the doctrine for the benefit and consolation of the elect dispersed through the lands and ages of the greater exile by Arthur Edward White Publisher: University Books; First Thus edition (1982) Language: English ISBN: 0-8065-0522-2 (published by Citadel Press) ASIN: B0006AWLGA Product Dimensions: 8.7x5.8x1.7 inches Paperback: 636 pages From the Back Cover: Kabbalah is the occult and secret tradition in Judaism. One of the most ancient wisdoms, its origins go far back into the distant past. The Holy Kabbalah is a fascinating introduction to this world of mystery. Arthur Edward Waite was one of the few persons in the modern era to write a sensible and penetrating study of Kabbalah. Contemporary of such occultists as Eliphas Levi, Mme. Blavatsky, and Annie Besant, Waite unraveled the history and traditions of what generations have whispered about as Hebrew witchcraft. The very term Kabbalah was enough to strike fear into the heart of an orthodox believer. In his introduction Kenneth Rexroth writes: Kabbalism is the great poem of Judaism, a tree of symbolic jewels showing forth the doctrine of the universe as the vesture of Deity, of the community as the embodiment of Deity, and of love as the acting of God in man. Nobody knew this better than A. E. Waite. Biography: Arthur Edward Waite (2 October 1857 – 19 May 1942), commonly known as A. E. Waite, was an American-born British poet and scholarly mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric matters, and was the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. As his biographer R. A. Gilbert described him, "Waite's name has survived because he was the first to attempt a systematic study of the history of western occultism—viewed as a spiritual tradition rather than as aspects of proto-science or as the pathology of religion." 2) The Secret Doctrine of the Kabbalah: Recovering the Key to Hebraic Sacred Science by Leonora Leet Publisher: Inner Traditions; Original ed. edition (July 1999) Language: English ISBN-10: 0892817240 ISBN-13: 978-0892817245 Product Dimensions: 6 x 1.2 x 9 inches Paperback: 480 pages From the Back Cover JUDAICA / SPIRITUALITY "This magisterial work reveals in irrefutable fashion the cosmological foundations of the Kabbalah and its expression in sacred geometry and number symbolism. It sweeps aside centuries of speculation, misunderstanding, and partial understanding and in all likelihood will set off the storms of scholarly controversy that invariably attend genuinely original and revolutionary thought. I believe that Leonora Leet has done for Kabbalah scholarship what R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz did for Egyptology--this is a work of immense importance." --John Anthony West, author of Serpent in the Sky: The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt "The Secret Doctrine of the Kabbalah is a bold and innovative interpretation of the esoteric teachings of Judaism. Particularly impressive is the utilization of mathematical and scientific categories to illuminate the mystical teachings of the Kabbalah. The result is a fresh and fascinating exploration of the hidden wisdom of Judaism, which should be of great interest to all those who are searching for an enriched engagement with spiritual matters." --Elliot R. Wolfson, Professor of Hebrew and Judaic Studies, New York University "With mastery, sensitivity, and depth, Leonora Leet has illuminated the hidden meaning and structure of one of the world's great transmissions of sacred mystery--the Kabbalah--in a manner that invigorates its power to transform individual awareness and inform and reform our social development." --Robert Lawlor, author of Voices of the First Day and Sacred Geometry This brilliant new work reveals the Kabbalah to be the product of a sophisticated, though largely forgotten, Hebraic sacred science that was the rival of any in Egypt or Greece. Unlike previous historical explorations of the Jewish esoteric tradition, The Secret Doctrine of the Kabbalah resurrects this ancient body of knowledge to reveal eternal truths that can have a profound and positive impact on contemporary spirituality. New experimental methods of practicing Hebraic sacred science are explored that explain as never before the meaning of the central cosmological diagram of the entire Western esoteric tradition--the kabbalistic Tree of Life. Leet shows that the Kabbalah and its central diagram enshrine a key to the purpose of the cosmos, a key that has vast implications for modern physics, cosmology, and spiritual evolution. LEONORA LEET (1929-2004) received her Ph.D. from Yale University and was Professor of English at St. John's University. She is the author of Renewing the Covenant. <<< Zapraszam również do odwiedzenia innych moich aukcji >>> https://allegro.pl/uzytkownik/Kramik_U_Jacka https://allegro.pl/uzytkownik/Kramik_Jacka
