the first time was qabalah while exploring new visual aids in meditation. The tarot was my interest and some kind of key was necessary to help me interpret the cards and dimensional meaning of associations when laying out multiple pictorial cards. So for awhile, it was the western magick tradition of thought that occupied my space. Upon reading Roger Kamenetz's Stalking Elijah and then a previous book by this author, THE Jew in the Lotus, I became aware of the centuries-long traditions of kabbalah.

It was sometime later while indulging my newest obsession, computers and technology and the internet, that relationships of spirituality and technology became suddenly sensible. The human wiring and the communication revolution and technological wiring complement each other and this insight has both intimidated me and liberated.

The technological connection to kabbalah led me to a great book that has had more meaning for me than most, but not like a read, but more of the answers section in the back of elementary school math books offering results to every other equation. A text-book called The 72 Names of God by Yehuda Berg.

It is this manisfestation of kabbalah study online and in these books that have the greatest influence on my participation as a student.

The estactic radiating in kabbalah study manifests in my bohemia art and lifestyle and visual meditations include my artwork, interpretation and mantras.

So this is a little bit about me and the tree of life essentials.
