Customer Reviews

A book's length commercial for the Kabbalah Centre

Praises the Kabbalah Centre repeatedly and offers very little substance as to the source teachings - mostly it is superficial/non-informational talk about how great Kabbalah is (oh and the Kabbalah Centre is waiting for your membership).

A Book That Reveals The Light and Makes You Want To Share It

This book is an incredible book. If you were ever curious about Kabbalah this book is the answer. Michael Berg provides the reader with a clear interpretation of the meaning of Kabbalah, the meaning and purpose of life, and practical steps toward transformation. However, by no means should a reader look to Kabbalah as some kind of magic nor should a reader expect instant transformation. True transformation takes understanding, patience, time and a lot of work. Nevertheless, after reading this book one will realize that Kabbalah is a philosophy of truth and when studied will provide its students with a purpose in this world. There are a lot of Kabbalah books on the market today yet only a handful are worth the read. Michael Berg's contribution fills a void. He avoids an academic approach and goes directly to the heart, beauty and meaning of Kabbalah without getting bogged down in ecsoteric meanings, terms and definitions. Buy this book, put it in your personal library and return to it on a periodic basis. Let this book be the springboard on your way to personal and in turn to global transformation. Please note that this reviewer is in no way affiliated with the Kabbalah Center. In fact, this reviewer has some misgivings about the center which thrives by selling fairly expensive courses and products. For those serious students, stick to their free information on their website Kabbalah.com and another website called Kabbalah-web.org.

The Way: Using the Wisdom of Kabbalah

I've studied Kabbalah for 6 years. I could not put this book down. It puts everything I studied together. The amazing thing is that it is an introductory book and is a good entry into the path of Kabbalah for anyone.

practical spirituality...finally!!!!

I can truly say that my life was changed by this unbelievable book! Michael Berg took the intangible and made it tangible. After reading this book I feel that I have practical tools to use to change and grow- not just mystical concepts that seem irrelevant in my daily life. I hope I dont have to wait too long for the next book that I am sure will continue to blow my mind!

A must on your spiritual Way

To read this book really gave me what any book never gave me before. Inspirational, very deep and at the same time very easy to understand, can practically help us improve our lives. Everyone should wish to have a spiritual teacher like him. I highly recommend it to anyone that has interest in any kind spirituality.

Profoundly Deep, Yet Remarkably Practical!

I started reading this book on a flight from New York to Los Angeles with the intent to glance through it for about half an hour. Next thing i knew the plane was landing at LAX. Overflowing with gleaming pearls of wisdom, Michael Berg has deciphered the mysteries of Kabbalah so that everyone and anyone can embark on the ultimate path of spirituality and transformation. While most books on Kabbalah offer a discourse that is usually overly-intellectual and academic, The Way captures the heart and soul of Kabbalah, gracefully illustrating its relevance to our contemporary world and daily existence. While one may be a brilliant scholar of classical music, only a Mozart can compose a symphonic masterpiece. Michael Berg is truly a virtuoso of Kabbalistic wisdom. And this book is his first masterpiece.
