New album featuring Mary Rowell on Violin and Craig Pallett – Keyboards/Composer

Two Vermonters struggle to express the clear reality of the world we now appear to be living in. Sounds like a plot that can only thicken but I am not going to try. One of the worlds great violinist, stopped by the studio in October 2019 one day, and she recorded these four compositions I created for her. Just her violin and my Mac. Enjoy.

A Kabbalistic Universe
Revised edition
A Kabbalistic View of Existence
Author: Z’ev ben Shimon Halevi
A Kabbalistic Universe describes the origin and purpose of Existence in the scheme of the four Worlds of Emanation, Creation, Formation and Action, and with their various inhabitants. Drawing upon ancient, medieval and modern material, this book brings the kabbalistic tradition into the present. This revised edition, with its additional graphics, makes the Divine principles involved more comprehensible. Once the metaphysics are understood, then new perceptions will come regarding the structure and dynamics of Existence and the functions of the angelics and demonics, as well as organic life and human evolution.

Contains 84 figures & diagrams.

Introduction to the World of Kabbalah
An Overview
Author: Z’ev ben Shimon Halevi
This new book by Halevi is an introduction to the Tradition, enhanced by many illustrations and diagrams. It outlines the origins of Kabbalah in biblical, mythological and metaphysical terms that explain the origins of Existence according to Jewish mysticism. Kabbalistic cosmology and psychology are discussed, as are schools of the soul, true and false teachers and working methods, in order to reveal the process of evolution and its aim ‘to aid God to behold God.’ This book is a synthesis of Halevi’s works.

Contains 147 figures & illustrations.

The Way of Kabbalah
Revised Edition
A Primer
Author: Z’ev ben Shimon Halevi

The Way of Kabbalah, with its enriched diagrams, opens up the inner teaching of Kabbalah. Using the Bible, metaphysics and esoteric psychology, it sets out a way for the aspirant to approach the path of development and Self-realisation. The relationship between the body, psyche and spirit to the Divine is shown in the context of the kabbalistic tradition and contemporary working methods. Various interior processes are observed as consciousness rises through the seven levels of the mind into the Halls of Heaven. From here a wider and deeper view of Existence, and our place in it, can be seen.

Contains 57 figures and diagrams.

Contains 49 figures and illustrations.

The Kabbalist At Work:
previously published as The Work of the Kabbalist
Revised Edition
Theory and Practice
Author: Z’ev ben Shimon Halevi

This book is about kabbalistic working methods and the background to such effort. Here, theory and practice are set out against everyday life and history, as well as inner and outer processes related to individual and group work. The themes include specific exercises, the ways of Action, Devotion and Contemplation, past lives, and how a school of the soul operates. As a revised edition, it contains many new illustrations and diagrams which open up other dimensions to the text.
