The Kabbalah (also Cabala, Kabala, Qabalah) is system of thought which was originally included in Jewish theosophy, philosophy, science, magic and mysticism. 'Kabbalah' is Hebrew for "that which is received" and refers to a secret oral tradition of teaching which extends from teacher to pupil. The term "Kabbalah" itself was first applied to secret mystical teachings in the eleventh century by Iba Gabriol, a Spanish philosopher, and has since become applied to all Jewish mystical practice. http://www.themystica.com/mystica/articles/k/kabbalah.html What are your thoughts on the Kabbalah?

I really like Kabbalah. In fact, one of my favorite books is the Red String Book. Have you ever read it? It's wonderful.
