This is my launching pad into an exploration of Jewish mysticism. Even after Kushner's very clear introductions, some parts were still way over my head However, most other parts were all too clear, to the point where it was kind of frightening to me to be confronted with some of the ideas. Great stuff to learn, ponder and meditate upon.
