Daily Kabbalah

Wisdom from the Tree of Life



Beautifully translated selections from ancient and medieval Aramaic and Hebraic source texts are sensitively compiled to create a poetic, meditative daybook of spiritual wisdom and prayer.

From sorcery to animal totems, buzzard feathers to hawk spirits, talking trees to magical stones, sacred circles to healing rituals, the Kabbalah brings readers a rich body of ancient wisdom that has been long neglected and even longer misunderstood. The Kabbalah celebrates a quality of consciousness that enables one to experience magic in the ordinary, miracles in the natural course of events, and spirituality in the physical. Its roots are as old and rich as most aboriginal shamanic traditions, sharing in common with many of them the belief that all of creation is alive, from animals and plants to the sun and the moon.The uniqueness of this book lies in its selections from this rare tradition of Jewish mystery wisdom. Culled from ancient and medieval Hebraic and Aramaic sources, much of this material has been hidden in dusty archives or obscure translations. These short selected readings are intended as contemplative, inspirational, and even entertaining extracts. As short as a few lines or as long as a page, they are translated and paraphrased here to render them accessible to readers of all backgrounds and spiritual paths.

"... [R]emains true to the spirit and intention of the original sources ... a unique book that I believe can help get us unstuck ... Readers of all backgrounds, religious or not, will discover in this book a body of wisdom that shows us that nothing is etched in stone and everything is far more than it appears."--Andrew Weil, MD, author of Spontaneous Healing
