Mystical Teachings in Judaism

Mystical teachings in Judaism, mainly expressed through Kabbalah, explore the deeper, spiritual dimensions of existence and the nature of God. Central concepts include the creation of the universe through divine emanations called Sefirot, which represent attributes of God. Mystics believe in the interplay between the spiritual and material worlds and seek a personal, transformative connection with the divine. Practices such as meditation, prayer, and studying sacred texts aim to achieve a higher understanding and closeness to God. This tradition emphasizes the importance of inner experience and divine love, encouraging followers to find meaning and holiness in everyday life.
