When you were talking about Tiferet it reminded me of something that Brene Brown said. She researched what makes people exceptionally compassionate and her findings are highly relevant and very interesting. She found that the people who were the most compassionate were loving people who also had very strong boundaries. It seems that without boundaries it becomes difficult to be compassionate because people just take advantage of you.
@@EyepatchMGM that is an excellent question. I have seen one. I am having difficulty remembering the name of the book, however... If I remember I will let you know.
@@zaephyrdelacroix7051 well I think Brene would be the best person to explain that but I believe it is because without boundaries people will take advantage of you and when people are taken advantage of they become jaded and less compassionate.
I am non-Jewish but this teaching has given me great understanding of how the spiritual dimension relates to everyday reality. Thank you for being a blessing.
Hey, I’m watching this two years later 😅. I’ve been so confused, but now I’ve received so much clarity and inspiration. With this inspiration hopefully I’ll be to inspire others (keter - malchut - keter)
Thanks you for watching. i hope you now have a clearer idea of what the Sefirot mean (at least according to this one interpretation). Lmk what you thought or if you have any questions down here in the comments, and share this class if you liked it. Much love, Zevi ❤
When I was an atheist, I injured my left knee during a dance performance. It was the spark of my spiritual journey, and I love that it aligns with Hod. I was literally moving into a kneeling position in the choreography. At the time I was very aligned with Netzach and driven by my ego. It was the spark of my spiritual journey because it was the start of seeing how much I identified with the physical world- my literal body as a dancer. I like that the body is a microcosm of the macro. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insights. I have learned so much, and it makes me so happy this can be found in my Jewish heritage!
Wow! Questions? ... Just thanks at least first and foremost :-) Aproximatly 30 years ago I was introduced to a "wicked pack of cards".... but it was never much about the cards, or predicting the future.. That "system", that "structure", that map, or even meta-map, have been a rich companion, and still is. And what an excquistie exposition Your serving up! Luv it/and You for doing this... Sincerely from a "gentile", middel aged boy from Scandinavia. Oh boy did I enjoy this one!!
You're one of kind brother. Your connection with the one is so strong that you're flawlessly decoding reality . beautifully explained & in very simple terms.. I see God in play;) Thanks teacher.
Dang, that was such a brilliant teaching and the end just had me with Malkuth becoming Keter.. And on it goes, lol. It's a really beautiful way of expressing Karma in another way. Thank you for this.
I love how passionately you explain the 10 Sefirot, especially how you break down complex ideas with such clarity and ease. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 🙏🏻
I began studying Kabbalah several years ago on my own, and I must admit that this investment has benefitted my relationships greatly. I think I needed a strong conceptual model for how humanity relates to the divine, and this has given me a way to synthesize my analytical mind with the part of me that has a strong affinity for mystical experiences (which include relational experiences). I thoroughly enjoy contemplating the relationships you so eloquently describe. Thank you for your teachings. Blessings 🕊
But are you saved? The foundation of ALL false religions are rooted in kabbalah. It's satanic, to put it simply. Understanding this esoteric knowledge shouldn't be used as a path for life, but as a way to see the world as it stands against God. Knowing this stuff doesn't make one wise, but Antichrist.
Man m you are sharing an incredible understanding of kabbalah. It is so profound so clear and one would be proud of you for making it accessible to a 5 years old.. Your passion and energy are incredibly communicative Thank you so much ..keep on
By far the finest instruction to enlighten this previously very confused gentile! Thank you for the map and my new understanding of the Tree of Life. I know there is much more to learn, but this class lights the lantern in my soul!
Great video. I wasnt planning to spend a whole hour watching a video but this video went by so quick because it was full of educational knowledge and very enjoyable
@@SeekersofUnityAfter watching your content I was able to simplify the Tree of Life. Kether - Spirit. Chokmah to Yesod - Soul & Malkuth - Body. I am Christian btw. Righteousness for the spirit, peace for the soul and Joy for the body and you have the Kingdom of God manifest in your life.
Appreciated your passionate yet detailed mapping of the Sefirot. I feel like I received it for the first time ias a conceptual whole constellation that will stick. Thank you again.
The left and right channels match perfectly with Iain McGilchrist's hemisphere hypothesis. Also, when you described the linear and partial penetration of God into the circle (making it a "broken mandala"), it resonated deeply with me in relation to Jung's realization of the Self after drawing a mandala that was broken as well (in 1917). This content is absolutely brilliant and brings out so many thoughts and ideas, thank you so much! 🙏
Trying to remember the difference between Netzach and Hod is something I've always had trouble with, but your explanation of the two was very helpful. Thanks!
I will refer to you as Rabbi. Thank you so much for all your videos. You are a wonderful teacher. I have been studying Kabbala for over 23 years. Not always knowing what is been said. You explain everything so beautifully. Sending you many brochures.
This is wonderful, you deliver so well - I learned a lot here and enjoyed it too! The "tree of life" now makes much more sense to me, a humble neophyte. Thank you for making this :)
Zevi , this is the best talk I have heard on the SEFIROT. Simple , clear, practical and very inspiring. I am a Christian and I have been reading and listening to many teachers on the KABBALAH and the ZOHAR and seeing much that is in common with the teaching of Jesus but your teaching has confirmed this intuition like no other. I thank you so much.
Same! I've always lived as a Jewish person and Kabbalist, without realizing it. I thought, something was wrong with me, but I finally know what "I" am, and what my purpose is, at the age of 42. Took long enough to perform personal "corrections" with better awareness. I also don't feel alone anymore, as we are one collective soul and G-d is always part of us.
I'm so excited about getting to learn about kabbalah and jewish mysticism with you Zevi, your explanation of what the 10 sefirot are was so clear and understandable, it blew my mind. You're a great teacher to say the least!
So this is the best birds eye view that a dabbler like myself can understand. Kind of reminds me of concepts from other traditions...the middle way of Buddhists, the Chakras of Hinduism..thought they're center and not left or right... I love your passion for bringing understanding to others. Love to see that people of all traditions are tuning in.
Prior to learning about the Kabbalah and the “language of roots and branches” I already had a very strong sense that language and symbols are metaphorical and describe things that are unseen by us. Even sensations can be metaphorical and my sense is that it is all contextual. So the same passage of text may have a different metaphorical meaning depending on the “state” of the reader. I have also found that purposefully trying to deduce meaning yields false information. It feel like when you try and decipher information you are taking Vs when your automatically receiving information. That being said, it also seems that the intention to understand at a deeper level causes more insights to be had. The most funny/frustrating things about this is that it’s impossible to talk about in a coherent way but I really enjoyed how clearly it was laid out in this video. The scary parts are when your reviving a lot of metaphorical information that’s indicates your on a wrong path or in a bad mental space. During these times it’s easy to spiral but conversely the inputs received while in a good space are amazing. Thanks for sharing your lessons!
You are the best of the best teacher of Kabbalah and all the topics and collaborations with Dr JJS of the Zohar Study I've seen. You explain it so extraordinary clearly with such passion it really inspires me as a student and teacher.
I wouldn't say it if it weren't true. You guys are funny too. There's so much good content between you, Esoterica, Let's Talk Religion, Gnostic Informant, Angela Symposium so I sometimes listen on 2x the speed to soak up all this wisdom of ages. If I left anyone out I will feel bad. Love you guys! ❤️

Thank you again for your video. Very good explanation of a really complicated and much discussed topic. I think the mystics intended for other mystics on their level to read their work, hence easy to get very lost. On a different note you sort of sum up to me how a I imagined a modern Chasid (I read too many Baal Shem Tov stories and never met a chasid) but you really exclude such enthusiasm for the topic and I can’t stop watching. Great work and thanks you for all this I don’t care about the video quality I was listening to the content.
Thank you and thank you for the kind compliment. It means a lot to me. Thank you. Funnily enough I’m working on a video now on Chasidut/Hasidism, I hope the enthusiasm comes through.
@@SeekersofUnity the enthusiasm always comes through! It makes me want to convert to Judaism and run off and join the Chasidim. On a serious note people like you do wonders for helping to promote understanding of other faiths/ movements within faiths as well great Kabbalah lessons. This video was a particularly excellent one and a gem. You are my favourite Kabbalah with a K teacher online.
Lovely explanation of The Tree Of Life, Thank you. P.S, You have such a beautiful, joyful face, that I cannot help but smile endlessly throughout your lectures. 😊
Just think this is so good. It would be so worth redoing ...renacting... in good light with good visuals in your usual wood lined 'studio' setting. From my tradition it felt like the centre was the dharma master...bringing out the best in the divine play of maya. Thank you so much for the expansion
… I have much love for you brother… This is my third video that I have watched of yours and I have subscribe to your channel… I am in Irish Mexican American with the last name Leyva, which is the Spanish equivalent to the Levi… I was raised Catholic, but I know now that my ancestors were Sephardic Jews from Spain, who migrated to Mexico… And I’m on my way back to Hashem… Thank you for putting up his videos❤
Bro, have just discovered your videos and highly enjoying. Any chance you can speak to the sefirot as reflected in the first book of genesis? In my experience the verses of Genesis 1 systematically construct the tree of life structure in the energy field of the person connecting with them. The rivers flowing out of Eden of Gen 2 set up flows through the sefirot via the left right and middle pillars. These are experiential observations. Any traditional account that reflects or sheds light on this? Thanks and blessings. Please keep sharing your knowledge 🙏💛
Lovely work. I have been reading about Kabbalah from various sources for a while, I can say that I love reading Aryeh Kaplan's books, and I recommend them to other viewers. After all that reading and taking notes, this video really helped me internalize and engrave all of the knowledge into my brain. Thank you.
Shalamalekhum my dear brother. I am a Muslim and a teacher of The Quraan. Whatever you told is found in the aayat / verses of Quran. Unfortunately we have been kept aart by people but now is the time for us to prove that we are one. If you are interested in knowing about the text, Translation and Interpretation, I would be delighted to asis you Remember in your prayers. Muhammad Ali.
A great poet once said “the crack, allows the light to come in” I wanna, thank you for all the light you’re letting in! Those boundaries between us are set to separate us - we are all coming from the same source of the living G-D. And it takes brave people like you, to make the crack bigger and allow more light in. Al Salam Alaykom - Shalom aleychem ❤❤❤
Wonderful lecture; gave a new angle for me, especially the bending of space-time with the paper. The connection with Da'at to Keter, reminds me of the rational thinker and the seeker; follower of messages. The rational stays at Da'at whilst the seeker enters Keter, then returns to Da'at to join the thinker once again. Take care, love from Yorkshire.
while listening to your explanation this idea came to my mind (maybe it already exists but I'm not aware of it): sefirot are in a way extended version of the scheme offered by the biblical writer of the first account of the creation from the book of Genesis. The scheme 3+3+1 - two parallel columns which have an ending at the bottom: sabbat. Sabbat, the Bride, is Malkhut, immanence, which we can experience if we take "a rest" (trough meditation) also. First three days would be right column, "masculine", giving, expansive (God creates while separates: 1.dark from light, 2. upper waters from earthly waters,3. earth from sea, and adding grass); last three days would be "feminine" and restrictive (receiving), God decorates the space he/she has just prepared (with 4. sun, moon and stars 5. birds and fishes 6. every living thing that moves upon the Earth, and human: male and female on "His" image (which implies that God is male and female in One)... Keter, the crown, would be first created: Light
Wait, before I lose my train of thought here- I noted that we’re talking about a negative theology when we discuss the great mystics within the Jewish tradition. I’m sure I’ll comment again as this is such a vast subject but thank you for that piece in particular.
It was wonderful to listen to you, i could feel your inspiration and passion for the topic, and to be honest i have so many questions. :D Why does it repeat itself four times, what does that mean? Why four times, and what represent every of these four stages? Is one of my questions.
Zevi, you are a gifted teacher. Thank you for sharing. I have watched this video several times, and a few questions continue to arise each time I do. Here is one: You mention that 10 is the perfect number for divine manifestation (and I believe it's Sefer Yetzirah from whence you say '9 is too few, 11 too many'). And you mention in the video that we will see why 10 is the right number. I have tried to find this answer personally, and I have inklings or suppositions, but I would love to hear your view. Why must it be 10?
There is a lott i know and think I understand, but still there are a lott of gaps in that knowledge, because there's always a deeper meaning behind that i know, so there is more to know of the same, and things i haven't learned yet! You fill such gaps for me thru these videos and made me a life long follower of your content! Again many thnx Sir!
You’re most welcome. I’m glad i could be of assistance. Thank you for coming to learn together with us. If you weren’t here it would be just that little less fun :)
This is by far the most explanatory video I've ever watched. Now everything is crystal clear. I was completely lost. Thank you!

Is there a depiction of the 10 sefirot in 3d?
@@EyepatchMGM that is an excellent question. I have seen one. I am having difficulty remembering the name of the book, however...
If I remember I will let you know.
Hello! Could you explain why strong boundaries are necessary to be highly compassionate?
@@zaephyrdelacroix7051 well I think Brene would be the best person to explain that but I believe it is because without boundaries people will take advantage of you and when people are taken advantage of they become jaded and less compassionate.

You cover all the topics that fascinate me: excellent ! Keep up the good work 😃👍
Love your energy and the depth of these videos. Thank you my Brother🙏🏼
You're so welcome brother. I'm glad you're enjoying them 🙏🏼
Thank you again for your video. Very good explanation of a really complicated and much discussed topic. I think the mystics intended for other mystics on their level to read their work, hence easy to get very lost.
On a different note you sort of sum up to me how a I imagined a modern Chasid (I read too many Baal Shem Tov stories and never met a chasid) but you really exclude such enthusiasm for the topic and I can’t stop watching. Great work and thanks you for all this
I don’t care about the video quality I was listening to the content.
Thank you and thank you for the kind compliment. It means a lot to me. Thank you. Funnily enough I’m working on a video now on Chasidut/Hasidism, I hope the enthusiasm comes through.
@@SeekersofUnity the enthusiasm always comes through! It makes me want to convert to Judaism and run off and join the Chasidim.
On a serious note people like you do wonders for helping to promote understanding of other faiths/ movements within faiths as well great Kabbalah lessons.
This video was a particularly excellent one and a gem. You are my favourite Kabbalah with a K teacher online.
Thank you kindly 🙏🏼 I’m really happy to hear that.
Very beautifully explained. Thank you.
You’re most welcome. I hope it was helpful.
This is a really fantastic lesson. Thank you
You’re most welcome. Thank you 🙏🏼
Lovely explanation of The Tree Of Life, Thank you.
P.S, You have such a beautiful, joyful face, that I cannot help but smile endlessly throughout your lectures. 😊
You’re most welcome friend. Thank you for that sweetest of compliments. I’m glad i could make you smile :)
Absolutely fabulous, just what I needed, thank you!
You’re most welcome 🙏🏼
Wow. Truly illuminating. Thank you.
You're very welcome
Brilliant - thank you so much for this
Finally found someone to explain it well !
Thank God for this channel.
You're most welcome :)
Wow, best explanation i have seen 👌🏼 thank you so much! Greeting from austria ✨
You’re most welcome Bibo. Thank you 🙏🏼
Dziękujemy.
Thank you friend 🙏🏼
Just think this is so good.
It would be so worth redoing ...renacting... in good light with good visuals in your usual wood lined 'studio' setting.
From my tradition it felt like the centre was the dharma master...bringing out the best in the divine play of maya. Thank you so much for the expansion
You’re most welcome Ramya. Ya, i may have to refilm the his 😋 Thank you. I’m so glad it was expansive for you 🙏🏼
Loved this! THANK YOU for explaining this in a way that FINALLY makes sense! 🙏
You’re very welcome. Glad it was helpful 🙏🏼
I didn't know what this was until I told God to show me I quit the world. And he shown me wow.
… I have much love for you brother… This is my third video that I have watched of yours and I have subscribe to your channel… I am in Irish Mexican American with the last name Leyva, which is the Spanish equivalent to the Levi… I was raised Catholic, but I know now that my ancestors were Sephardic Jews from Spain, who migrated to Mexico… And I’m on my way back to Hashem… Thank you for putting up his videos❤
Bro, have just discovered your videos and highly enjoying. Any chance you can speak to the sefirot as reflected in the first book of genesis? In my experience the verses of Genesis 1 systematically construct the tree of life structure in the energy field of the person connecting with them. The rivers flowing out of Eden of Gen 2 set up flows through the sefirot via the left right and middle pillars. These are experiential observations. Any traditional account that reflects or sheds light on this? Thanks and blessings. Please keep sharing your knowledge 🙏💛
Thank you for dispelling ignorance and not fostering hate speech! ✨🕯️
Thank you Michele for joining us for the dispelling of ignoring and the spreading of love ❤️
@@SeekersofUnity 🤣
Beautiful explanation! Thank you.
You’re most welcome 🙏🏼
Thanks!
You’re most welcome. Thank you 🙏🏼
Lovely work. I have been reading about Kabbalah from various sources for a while, I can say that I love reading Aryeh Kaplan's books, and I recommend them to other viewers. After all that reading and taking notes, this video really helped me internalize and engrave all of the knowledge into my brain. Thank you.
Thank you friend. I’m glad it was helpful.
Marvelous work, luv the channel, informative and deep. Salut from Porto Portugal
Thank you so much Paulo 🙏🏼❤️
Shalamalekhum my dear brother. I am a Muslim and a teacher of The Quraan.
Whatever you told is found in the aayat / verses of Quran.
Unfortunately we have been kept aart by people but now is the time for us to prove that we are one.
If you are interested in knowing about the text, Translation and Interpretation, I would be delighted to asis you
Remember in your prayers.
Muhammad Ali.
Hey, I'm really interested in knowing the 10 sefirot in the Qur'an, would be very kind of you.
Salamu Aleikum
A great poet once said “the crack, allows the light to come in” I wanna, thank you for all the light you’re letting in! Those boundaries between us are set to separate us - we are all coming from the same source of the living G-D. And it takes brave people like you, to make the crack bigger and allow more light in.
Al Salam Alaykom - Shalom aleychem

Asalamualaykum warahmatullah wabarakatuhu can you send me Ayats in Quran
Wonderful lecture; gave a new angle for me, especially the bending of space-time with the paper. The connection with Da'at to Keter, reminds me of the rational thinker and the seeker; follower of messages. The rational stays at Da'at whilst the seeker enters Keter, then returns to Da'at to join the thinker once again. Take care, love from Yorkshire.
Thank you so much. So glad you found it insightful and thank you for sharing the beautiful thoughts that were triggered. Much love from Jerusalem.
while listening to your explanation this idea came to my mind (maybe it already exists but I'm not aware of it): sefirot are in a way extended version of the scheme offered by the biblical writer of the first account of the creation from the book of Genesis. The scheme 3+3+1 - two parallel columns which have an ending at the bottom: sabbat. Sabbat, the Bride, is Malkhut, immanence, which we can experience if we take "a rest" (trough meditation) also. First three days would be right column, "masculine", giving, expansive (God creates while separates: 1.dark from light, 2. upper waters from earthly waters,3. earth from sea, and adding grass); last three days would be "feminine" and restrictive (receiving), God decorates the space he/she has just prepared (with 4. sun, moon and stars 5. birds and fishes 6. every living thing that moves upon the Earth, and human: male and female on "His" image (which implies that God is male and female in One)... Keter, the crown, would be first created: Light
That’s epic D3.
@@SeekersofUnity 🙃
Fascinating! Thanks, d3.
Wait, before I lose my train of thought here- I noted that we’re talking about a negative theology when we discuss the great mystics within the Jewish tradition. I’m sure I’ll comment again as this is such a vast subject but thank you for that piece in particular.
Yes. Typically.
You’re most welcome.
thank you for this wonderful video!
You’re most welcome 🙏🏼 thank you for watching 😊
Love this. Thank you!
You’re most welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
Great share. I love hearing different points this view. All of which are awesome to inspire a deeper insight. Todah rabah
You’re most welcome. Thank you Natalie 🙏🏼
It was wonderful to listen to you, i could feel your inspiration and passion for the topic, and to be honest i have so many questions. :D
Why does it repeat itself four times, what does that mean? Why four times, and what represent every of these four stages? Is one of my questions.
This brilliant guy is so inspired….amazing ! Now I am becoming very enthousiastic about kabalah as well 😃👍!
Thank you friend. I appreciate it. Welcome to the channel 🙏🏼❤️
@@SeekersofUnity Thank you so much, very kind😃❤️
Zevi, you are a gifted teacher. Thank you for sharing.
I have watched this video several times, and a few questions continue to arise each time I do. Here is one:
You mention that 10 is the perfect number for divine manifestation (and I believe it's Sefer Yetzirah from whence you say '9 is too few, 11 too many'). And you mention in the video that we will see why 10 is the right number.
I have tried to find this answer personally, and I have inklings or suppositions, but I would love to hear your view. Why must it be 10?
Thank you Scott. I appreciate you saying that and am glad you're enjoying the class.
I'd be curious to hear your suppositions.
There is a lott i know and think I understand, but still there are a lott of gaps in that knowledge, because there's always a deeper meaning behind that i know, so there is more to know of the same, and things i haven't learned yet! You fill such gaps for me thru these videos and made me a life long follower of your content! Again many thnx Sir!
You’re most welcome. I’m glad i could be of assistance. Thank you for coming to learn together with us. If you weren’t here it would be just that little less fun :)
