Shalom to one and all...

Thank you all who have been showing your support for KOSHERTORAH. Please keep your support coming.

Don't forget to check out online all the new e-books and MP3 courses...

New MP3s available (and ready to download)...

** Lessons in Meditative Techniques and the Expansion of Human Consciousness (from Sefer Shaarei Kedusha).

** Sefirot and Partzufim in Prayer (from Hut HaMeshulash of the Ben Ish Hai).

** Classical Kabbalah Beyond the Basics (from Sefer Ohel Mo'ed).

** Creation Teachings in Light of Science and Kabbalah

** Early Genesis - The Advanced Society of Ancient Times.

** Avraham Avinu, the Man and his Teachings.

** KOSHERTORAH OPEN FORUMS

** Masekhet Atzilut

This selection will begin our lessons in the greater volume of Yalkhut HaRo'im. This is an excellent, old text claiming to be of Biblical origins. The text actually describes itself in these words, "This is a Baraitta (ancient teaching) in the wisdom of the Kabbalah written by ancient masters from the days of King David. It covers the topic of the ten sefirot. It was written by Ya'ari'shiah, Zekharia and Eliah the sons of Yeruham mentioned in I Chronicles 8."

Its present format discounts this, but the teachings herein may actually be that old. The text is one of the earliest to discuss the sefirot, the four worlds and some issues about the angels Sandalphon and Metatron. It is an excellent course of study for those continuing their learning in the Classical Kabbalah.

Class tuition for this course will be $75.00 per month. Class length will be on-going and continue with other material once the initial text is finished.

To enroll in this class, interested students must contact me directly via e-mail or telephone. I will register them and give them the necessary access codes.

Live classes will commence Thursday 10/29/09 at 1 p.m. PST. Recorded classes in video and audio formats will be available online for registered students who cannot join us live .

** Hokhmat HaEmet
     V'Sodot Shemot HaKodashim U'Malakhim

This very small and almost impossible to find book is what I call a primer to Kabbalah Ma'asit and the usage of certain Shemot Kodashim. The text is appropriate for those to whom it is appropriate. I will not discuss more about it in this forum.

This will be an on-going course to continue when Hokhmat HaEmet finishes in other sources, including selections from Sefer Shoreshei HaShemot.

Students for this course must have knowledge of Hebrew. Due to the nature of the material now everything will be translated out of Hebrew.

Class tuition for this course will be $125.00 per month. Class length will be on-going and continue with other material once the initial text is finished.

To enroll in this class, interested students must contact me directly via e-mail or telephone. I will register them and give them the necessary access codes.

Live classes will commence Tuesday 10/27/09 at 1 p.m. PST. Recorded classes in video and audio formats will be available online for registered students who cannot join us live .

OK, that is it for right now. I welcome back all my old students to come learn with me again... and I welcome you new ones as well.... All registered students (male and female) become "official" talmidim/ot of YESHIVAT BENEI N'VI'IM. All tuition payments count as donations and are tax deductible.
