From Today’s Daily Lesson:

After a month of public lectures and interviews with the media across the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and finishing by attending the 4th World Wisdom Council conference in Monterrey, Rav Michael Laitman, PhD has returned to giving the daily lessons, aired live from the Bnei Baruch Kabbalah Education Center in Israel (viewable daily on Kabbalah TV, 8:15pm EST, 6 days per week).

This video was taken from today’s first lesson, on the 113th article from Rabash’s notebook Shamati (I Heard). Rav Michael Laitman, PhD answered a student’s question on prayer and the perception of reality, talking about confusions that arise when working to make the shift from a corporeal perception of reality to a spiritual one.

This article presents more conflicting views on the popularization of Kabbalah: the view of the person who takes up the study of Kabbalah due to searching for answers to life’s most fundamental questions, and how Kabbalah fulfills this person’s questions; and the view of those who believe that Kabbalah requires a rigorous preparation through religion before it can be approached correctly.

Bnei Baruch’s view is that authentic Kabbalah has no connection to religion. Authentic Kabbalah is a science founded thousands of years before the world’s first religion appeared, designed for answering the question “What is the meaning of life?” Since it is designed to answer this question, it is also for anybody who sincerely asks this question, regardless of religion, race, nationality or lifestyle.
