Join us for this intellectually stimulating, inspirational and healing new course on Live Kabbalah.
The Ba'al Shem Tov was the kindred soul who revealed the profound teachings of Kabbalah in the form of Chassidut. We know that there are 4 levels of Torah called Pardes.
Chassidut is considered the 5th level of the Torah; The Ba'al Shem Tov is the kindred soul who revealed the profound teachings of Kabbalah in the form of Chassidut. His soul was brought into the world in a dark time in Jewish/world history.
His teachings are found not just in theory or spirituality but, most importantly, within our hearts, souls, and bodies in the here and now.
The soul of Moshiach told the Ba'al Shem Tov that his teachings must spread in the world for Moshiach to be revealed and redemption/Geula, a better/best world to be manifested.
