In the early 1970 s, the Work of the Chariot Trust published alandmark series of t
ranslations of the primary Hebrew andAramaic works of the Mystical Qabalah, many
of which hadnever been rendered into English. Until that time, most books inEng
lish on the Qabalah were written either by scholars, whoapproached it from a ped
agogical or historical angle, or byHermetic/Practical Qabalists who framed it wi
thin an occult perspective. The Work of the Chariot was rooted in the oralteachi
ngs of an accomplished mystic who was a genuine master of the Tree of Life, a re
al Man of the
Ayn
. The emphasis of histeaching was to engage in practices that would lead eachindi
vidual to their own experiential understanding, their ownascent of the Tree. Thi
s book is the first time that a senior member of this grouphas recorded these te
achings in detail. If you are new to thesubject of the Mystical Qabalah, you wil
l find a wealth of clear,albeit compact, information. It will both familiarize y
ou with thearcane ideas and obscure terminology of the qabalisticworldview, as w
ell as, give you detailed instructions on qabalisticmeditation and ancillary pra
ctices that you can immediately startto use. If you already have some familiarit
y with the subject, or come from an occult, Thelemic, or Pagan background, you w
illlikely discover information and diagrams in this book that youhave never seen
. The explanations of core ideas may lead you tothink about what you do know in
new ways.
