Book Title: Formation of the Tree of Life [2nd Edition]

Subject: Kabbalah (Intermediate Level)

Format: Adobe PDF e-book (2.5mb)
Release Date: 3rd April, 2007 (2nd Edition: 8th November, 2007.)

This book reveals the secret of how the kabbalistic Tree of Life diagram is systematically built in a series of steps from Ain Sof to Malkut. It shows how each step involves combining the twenty-two Hebrew letters in certain conformations to produce the ten sefirot and the twenty-two pathways. The end-result includes a new path configuration that solves many mysteries of the Sefer Yetzirah and the Zohar. During the course of the book information is drawn from the ancient texts: Sefer Berashit, Sefer Yetzirah, and the Zohar (i.e. Sefer Dtzenioutha, Ha Idra Rabba Qadisha, and Ha Idra Zuta Qadisha).
