Welcome to another in a mini series of The Etiquette of Kabbalah. This week, from Parshat Breishit of the Zohar, we find another brilliant distinction from Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai about the Creation of Adam and Eve and the Universal Principles that guide the Universe(s).
The word from creating Adam was with one letter yud, and when God recreated Adam and Even, the second creation story, the word for creation was spelled with two yuds.
This distinction can lead us in many wise and valuable directions but the Zohar understands it as the uniqueness of the feminine and why she blesses each morning, “Blessed is the One who made me according to His Will.”
According to this piece, who is closer to God? Who has the real power? The hidden power. . .
Come explore and invite the ideas of the greatest Kabbalists into your heart and understand who you really are.
Look forward to seeing you on Thursday, 8pm.
