Description
The Zohar is more than 2000 years old, but until very recently it was kept almost entirely hidden from the world, withheld out of fear that its power would be misused. For thousands of years, kabbalists have taught that the physical presence of the Zohar brought protection from harm. Looked at strictly as a work of spiritual wisdom, the Zohar is both an exploration and an explanation of every aspect of our physical and spiritual universe, and the connections that exists between them. Yet the real benefit of the Zohar in our daily lives is the energy imbued within each letter, each word, and each phrase.

"When the upper world was filled and became pregnant, it brought forth two children together, a male and a female, these being heaven and earth after the supernal pattern."

"Zohar is a Hebrew word that means "splendor." In its simplest form, the Zohar is a commentary on the Bible, structured as conversations among a group of friends, scholars, and spiritual masters ... the text of the Zohar was composed approximately 2000 years ago."--Brochure.
