The Kabbalah of Light

This book is a gift to dreamers, to Kabbalists, to meditators, and to the world. Amid the fascination with Kabbalah, seekers have thirsted for a way into the mystical experience. The Kabbalah of Light is that way in. * Rabbi Jill Hammer, Ph.D., author of Undertorah * Catherine Shainberg teaches us how our dreams can become real and the unknowable known. Her book will give you courage to learn from the creativity of your dreams. * Rodger Kamenetz, author of The Jew in the Lotus * In her wonderful new book Catherine Shainberg inspires us to plunge deep into the ocean of dreams and access gifts of the great unconscious. She declares with informed passion that dreaming is a royal road to enlightenment and shows us that it opens doors to many worlds. * Robert Moss, author of Conscious Dreaming * Catherine's done it again, assembling the hidden ingredients of mindfulness and brewing them in a cauldron of ancient and early medieval Hebraic mystery wisdom. An excellent guide whose magic we have yet to fathom and of which, through the book's many exercises, we might finally catch a glimpse. * Rabbi Gershon Winkler, author of Magic of the Ordinary * Catherine Shainberg's new book is serious, delightful, and tinged with the magical, as is the author. It is a creative effort, filled with wonderful practices and exercises to raise the great Leviathan from the depths of the unconscious so as to awaken our creative imagination and life force. Shainberg's readings into biblical and Kabbalistic myth are wonderfully creative. * Melila Hellner-Eshed, author of A River Flows from Eden * The Kabbalah of Light is an audacious endeavor to present the esoteric wisdom of the Jewish mystical tradition as the science of letting the unconscious speak. The guidance in this book is to lead one to spiritual enlightenment and psychic well-being, the experience that Kabbalists call dveikut, cleaving to the divine, the highest rung on the ladder of dreams. * Elliot Wolfson, Marsha and Jay Glazer Chair in Jewish Studies, University of California, Santa Barba * In this brilliant book, Catherine has given us a great gift. Not only is this work dazzling in its depth and beauty, it is also eminently useful and practical. Catherine guides us on a grand journey, a voyage of self-discovery. There lies buried treasure--the riches of a more fulfilling transformed life, illumined by the golden sunlight of divine revelation. * Kevin Melville Jennings, past contributor of The Daily Scope for Vogue.com * In her thrilling new book, Catherine Shainberg's treasure trove of playful and profound 'inductions' will guide you to plunge deeper and deeper into the innermost realms of your soul. What a gift this book is to all seekers of light and delight. The Kabbalah of Light is mind-expanding. It's fun and fabulous! * Didi Conn, actress and playwright *
