Where Does The Book of Zohar Lead You?

In the Introduction to The Book of Zohar, Baal HaSulam writes that although it seems to us that everything is happening before our eyes, it is clear to anyone with reason that all these pictures exist solely inside our brain.

Only when we manage to achieve such an understanding will we begin to gradually approach what the science of Kabbalah speaks about. Therefore, The Book of Zohar is hidden from us, and we do not know how to open it and read it. After all, the key to its understanding is the correct perception of reality.

The Book of Zohar must be approached only through internal concepts by imagining everything told in it within oneself, all the definitions, sounds, worlds, spiritual objects, souls, mutual relations, and especially the parameters of perception of reality: world-year-soul, above time, movement, and space.

If we perceive the text as unfolding into a scheme of relationships of forces and properties within us, then we will gradually reveal ever deeper inner states in ourselves. Then it will become clear to us that this external reality does not exist, no matter how real it may seem to us, that it exists externally and is not subject to us.

It is only now that I am under the delusion that it is not me who creates this reality, but it itself unfolds in front of me, it existed even before my birth and will remain after my death. We must try to change all these views until we begin to understand what The Book of Zohar wants to explain to us.

The entrance to The Book of Zohar, the key to it, lies precisely in the transfer of everything into oneself according to the principle “Man…comprises the entire world.” Therefore, it is possible to understand whether I am studying correctly by the extent to which I expect to feel and reveal all my future inside myself.
