Description

This book is about a Kabbalistic view of a human being. This means it takes into account the concept of the four macrocosmic worlds of Emanation, Creation, Formation and Action, which are manifest in the microcosm of the Divine, spiritual, psychological and physical levels within a person. The book's approach is through the metaphysical scheme of the Sefirotic Tree of Life and the extended Trees of Jacob's Ladder. Combining ancient, medieval and modern understandings of Adam, the archetype of humanity, the book works its way up, after introducing the way Kabbalistic principles work, through the body, psyche and spirit to the Divine Realm where Self-realisation is attained.
