DESCRIPTION:
This notebook contained the transcripts of his conversations with his father, Rabbi Yehuda Leib Halevi Ashlag (Baal HaSulam), author of the Sulam (Ladder) commentary on The Book of Zohar and of many other works on Kabbalah.. Among all the texts and notes of Rabbi Baruch Shalom Halevi Ashlag (the Rabash), there was one special notebook he always carried
"So Near, And Yet So Far" according to For Two Cents Plain. This is a rich collection of shorter teachings by the illustrious 20th century master kabbalist, Rabbi Yehuda Ashlag, author of the "Sulam" Hebrew translation-commentary on the Zohar. These teachings were preserved by Rav Ashlag's son, the late Rabbi Baruch Shalom Ashlag, of blessed memory, in a notebook which was later published by his student, Rabbi Dr. Michael Laitman. The book is tastefully designed and typeset, no doubt with great effort on the part of the team involved. However, the text reads like it was translated by someone for whom English is a seco. "Awesome & so helpful" according to Rosie2U. At the moment & I think for some time, I am unable to give a coherent review of this wonderful & incredibly profound & holy book. I am still working on it & no doubt always will be. But it gave me a well aimed kick up the backside as well as providing me with much assistance to raise myself if I take advantage of that. Amazing! Currently, I am only up to using it in small chunks to read slowly & ponder on carefully as it is so "dense" (& that is no criticism).I found it very helpful how Hebrew words were followed by the English translation. This saved me a lo. Sherry Burke said Five Stars. Excellent!
