  • The Secrets of Creation & Ancient Kabbalah ft. Benjamin Malul | From The Minds (EP #6)
    Aug 8 2024

    On today's episode, Chris welcomes back Benjamin Malul, a member of the Kabbalah Center, for a deep dive into ancient Kabbalistic teachings. Building on their previous discussion, they explore complex concepts central to Kabbalistic thought.

    The topics featured includes an explanation of God's creation of the vessel, a foundational idea in Kabbalah that represents the recipient of divine light, which embodies the dual forces of the desire to share and the desire to receive. They then touch upon contraction (known as Tzimtzum), where God "contracts" His infinite light to create space for the existence of the finite world. This process sets the stage for the purpose of creation and the role of humanity in it. The conversation moves on to Tikun and Klipot, the former being the process of spiritual correction or rectification, and the latter being the negative forces or "shells" that conceal the divine light. These are seen as obstacles that must be overcome on the spiritual journey. Finally, the discussion returns to the Light Source, the ultimate divine energy that all Kabbalistic practices aim to connect with.

    Overall, this episode offers listeners a more nuanced understanding of Kabbalistic teachings, encouraging them to explore these ideas in their own spiritual practices.
