It’s been said that the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing us that he doesn't exist. Using the literary device of an “as told by” autobiography, the Kabbalah Centre reveals the concept of the Adversary, which plays a major role in kabbalistic teachings. Satan resides within each of us, manifesting as a recurrent little voice of uncertainty. The tests that he puts before us are a means to help us grow.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This book is creative, eye-opening, and came to me at just the right time. It really helped me understand the ego in a way no other book has. I love how the author uses a creative approach to show the connection between ego and the role of Satan. It definitely makes you stop and think. Changed my life, now I laugh at myself more when I catch myself embodying the ego.

Creative and deeply thought provoking

What you make of this book will eventually depend on what your faith is, but I think regardless of your faith or lack of it, you will enjoy the clever humour and excellent narration.

This short tome reminds me a lot of Napoleon Hill's strange classic, 'Outwitting the Devil'. The Oppositioner, just like Hill's devil, is given a direct voice - and underscores the critical Qabalistic truth, namely, that the holy books of Christianity and Judaism are taken literally at our peril. More accessible than the Zohar - I think that this book is a great starting point for students of the Qabalah who want to dive deeper. As a Gnostic Christian, I can say that this book merges the true gold of both Christianity and Judaism expertly. One issue that readers take with this book is the vexed issue of Tikkun (similar to the Eastern concept of Karma). Obviously small children undergoing the torments of war and abuse are undeserving of this treatment.

However, something that Tikkun means, is that we manifest this Karma in societies in the aggregate. As a people, we look away, the great 'they' wouldn't do that etc ... so we shut our eyes and ears to active evil being perpetrated in the name of religion, politics, and the rest. Our collective apathy, ignorance, and misplaced trust appear to be manifesting a very grim future for both us, and for future generations. As an aside: I have PTSD myself, and Rav's teachings have actually helped me contextualise my experiences - so I say that people with trauma are safe to give this book a try - and it may even help. I mention this, as some readers think it denigrates trauma as a 'your fault' issue due to Tikkun accumulated elsewhere (in a previous existence) - so if you don't feel strong enough to accept any part of this, the Qabalah is probably not for you. We are free to reject, accept, or partially accept as appropriate.

One key takeway from this book is fascinating: The Deuce can interfere with all prayers that are not pronounced in Aramaic. It's probably telling that you can't find an English to Aramaic translation program anywhere on line!

This reminds me of Napoleon Hill's book ....
