Among all the texts and notes of Rabbi Baruch Shalom Halevi Ashlag (the Rabash), there was one special notebook he always carried. This notebook contained the transcripts of his conversations with his father, Rabbi Yehuda Leib Halevi Ashlag (Baal HaSulam), author of the Sulam (Ladder) commentary on The Book of Zohar and of many other works on Kabbalah. Not feeling well on the Jewish New Year in September 1991, the Rabash summoned his primary student and personal assistant, Michael Laitman, to his bedside and handed him that notebook. Its cover contained only one word, Shamati (I Heard). As he handed the notebook to him, he said to Laitman, "Take it and learn from it." The following morning, he perished in Laitman's arms, leaving him and many of his other students without guidance in this world. Committed to Rabash's legacy to spread the wisdom of Kabbalah, Laitman published the notebook just as it was written, thus retaining the text's transforming powers. Among all the books of Kabbalah, Shamati is a unique and compelling composition whose power persists long after the reading is through. -- The vast and deep knowledge one can attain from this Kabbalah book is unmatched. -- Kabbalah is a historic Jewish book of thought that delves into the depths of spiritual energy. -- This Kabbalah book is a masterpiece amongst its peers. This book brings the wealthy culture of Kabbalah to life for all to understand. -- Utilizing new perspectives will grant us the ability to use Kabbalah to better ourselves. -- Up until very recently, Kabbalah was reserved for the elite, those who only after years of scholarship and practice were allowed to enter this mystical realm.
