Rabbah–Books–Group
Studying Kabbalah is not about acquiring knowledge but training for partnership in revealing the Creator's will to bestow goodness upon His creations. This secret wisdom requires a unique environment: "For the attainment of exaltedness entirely depends on the environment. An individual alone cannot achieve anything in this regard" (Baal HaSulam, "Introduction to the Study of the Zohar").
Here, you can explore videos and articles from the teachings and connect to the unique environment of Mishkan Hakavana through its three pillars: Rabba Saphir Noyman Eyal, Kabbalistic writings adapted for our generation, and a group of friends united by a shared intention.

Blind Faith and Higher Mind in Kabbalah

The Role of Israel
