Esoteric Judaism

Esoteric Judaism refers to the mystical, hidden aspects of Jewish thought and practice. It includes various teachings and beliefs that go beyond traditional religious observance, focusing on inner spiritual experiences and the mystical interpretation of texts. Central to this is Kabbalah, which explores the nature of God, the universe, and the soul. Esoteric Judaism emphasizes personal spiritual growth, understanding divine mysteries, and the relationship between humanity and the divine. This perspective often involves rituals, meditation, and a deeper exploration of sacred texts, revealing layers of meaning that are not immediately apparent in mainstream Jewish practice.
