Kabbalah - the experience of the vision of

In Kabbalah there are various schemata designed to help order this system of thought so that you will begin to learn to make these connections for yourself within.

There is the Tree of Life glyph composed of three columns, a left, right and a balancing center column depicting various qualities that act together ideally or sometimes are expressed with too much on one side or another.

We may also interpose the thirty two paths of wisdom upon the Tree of Life to show the energy of creation in motion. In addition if we read the Sepher Yetzirah the cube of space is described. All of these diagrams are as mentioned above aids to our inner comprehension of concepts that admittedly go beyond our normal way of thinking.

The truth is that the purpose of those glyphs are meant to provide you with a means to unify your own thoughts in terms of order and chaos and thinking about things in a way that promotes harmony. The building blocks of life turn out to be those very thoughts.

In keeping with this theme of unification here is some inspiration that has as it purpose simply to be a signpost for higher awakening. It is bound within Torah as though it were written as an ancillary document just meant to get you thinking about Hashem and the wondrous things that are represented when your mind leaves the daily tasks and lets go to enter into the Shabbat experience.

One thought follows another true
And then again it comes to you
A single moment coming through
Awakening this now in all you do

Feel the sunlight whisper sweet
Along the rows of corn so neat
Musing about this and that
Wearing wonder on your hat

Note the wisdom that it flows
Blossoms as it moves and grows
Along with understanding knows
Perfection in every breath it shows

All of this sees well through love
Our way connection above
Everything wonderful think of
Fit heart mind soul like a glove.

Gut Shabbos.
