Perception of Kabbalistic Texts

526Question: You say that in Kabbalah all your feelings are in Hebrew. When you read Kabbalistic texts in this language or listen to them, how do you perceive them?

Answer: When I read a Kabbalistic text in Hebrew, I perceive it within myself. Just like when you read a text about some situation in our world in Russian, it creates a certain inner picture within you.

It is the same for me when I read a Kabbalistic text. It creates an inner picture in me because I already possess a certain set of qualities that correspond to these words, terms, sentences, and connections.

Therefore, while reading, I assemble this picture inside myself like a mosaic, and it begins to live within me. As I continue through the text, it all shimmers, rotates, connects, and separates within me. The text lives in me and carries out its actions. I feel it as my life experienced in that very moment.

It is similar to when you read fiction and become immersed in the story.
