This volume is considered a basic resource for anyone interested in Kabbalah, the mystical tradition in Judaism.
While the topics are covered in a clear and lucid manner suitable for beginners, even the most seasoned and learned scholar of Kabbalah will find a wealth of new information and insight. In what has become Rabbi Ginsburgh’s trademark, Kabbalistic thought is presented in a systematic and orderly structure that is essential for gaining perspective on its oftentimes overwhelming complexity.
Our generation is awakening to the transformative power of mystical thought and searching for the way in which it can function as a complement to our rational mode of thinking. This book will serve as your key to bridging the mystical with the rational and provide you with the tools for uncovering the hidden dimensions of your world, your self, and your relationship with G-d.
Chapters include:
• An Overview of Kabbalah
• Contemplative and Practical Kabbalah
• The Misuse of Kabbalah
• The Stages of Creation

Rabbi Ginsburgh is one of the prime modern scholars and practitioner of Kabbalah and Chassidut today, having written over forty books in Hebrew and English on the topic, and What You Need to Know About Kabbalah is a 'must' primer for any interested in this mystical tradition of Judaism.
