The Dragon, the Snake, and the Messiah

Kundalini, Kukulkan, Leviathan, and Nachash: Why do cultures and religions from all over the world use similar serpentine imagery? What is so special about the snake symbol and how does it tie into spiritual elevation and enlightenment? And what does it have to do with Mashiach and the End of Days? Find out in this class where we explore the origins of the mystical snake from the first verses of Genesis, and see how it manifests in the cosmos, the constellations, and the current war in Gaza.

Secrets of Purim

What is the deeper mystical meaning of the Purim festival? Is a Jew really required to get drunk on the holiday? And why does the Tanakh describe Mashiach as being able to judge by “smelling”? Find out in this class where we take a plunge into the science and Kabbalah of Purim. Also: what really happened when the Talmudic sage Rava “killed” Rabbi Zeira on Purim? What is the deeper reason for dressing up in costumes? And what was the real name of Mordechai?

Garments of Light, Volume Three Now Available!

What does the Torah say about time travel? Where was the Garden of Eden and what was the Forbidden Fruit? How will events transpire in the Messianic Era, and who exactly is Mashiach?

Find the surprising answers to these and other enigmatic questions in the long-awaited third volume of Garments of Light, now available here. The biggest and boldest one yet (weighing in at 505 pages), with a new collection of seventy essays on the weekly parasha and holidays—culled from some of the most popular ones posted here over the past decade (expanded and revised), as well as never-before-seen essays that are too esoteric (and controversial) to post on the internet. Each volume follows the array of Sefirot, so the theme of Volume Three is Tiferet, also called Emet, “Truth”. That said, expect to find an especially large dose of emet in this volume!
