Lurianic Kabbalah

Lurianic Kabbalah: "The Kabbalah, however, is unique in its position in the history of western thought, acting as it were as a 'switching station' in which the biblical tradition, oriental mysticism and western philosophy converge. In the Kabbalah of Isaac Luria these traditions combine with Luria's profound spiritual insight and intense mythical imagination to produce a comprehensive philosophical and psychological vision of the nature of God and humankind that was only imperfectly represented in the prior traditions. Of equal significance, however, is the relationship between the Kabbalah and more modern systems of thought and practice"
