Fire Serpent and Kabbalah

[Guest guest]

Greetings Richard, Everyone,

 

> I came to the conclusion the serpent was associated with Binah

Kabbalah Initiation

 

" brief review of the Sefirots and Tiferot is found on the web

site " The Ten Sefirot of the Kabbalah. 36. The ten sefirot or

emanations are interrelated, generally one sefirot linking to the

next. There is of course, much more to the Talmudic and Kaballastic

teachings of the Ten Sefirot. Part of the concept of the sefiroth and

the ascent through the gates or ladders of wisdom refers to the

Kabbalistic Tree of Life that matches the Sufi mystic teachings. Due

to space the following list does not encompass all the sefirot and

relationships, but presents comparisons between certain of the

Kabbalistic sefirot and the Kundalini chakras on the Tree of Life.

 

The parallels with Kundalini come from A Kabbalistic View of the

Chakras by Rebekah Kenton who explains the chakras in terms of

Jacob's ladder... "

hi, as someone who's worked with and studied the possible relations

between the qabalah of the western tradition and the kundalini quite

extensively, I just want to caution against accepting any of the many

available attempts at correspondence, at face value. they seem

natural and I believe are in fact quite complementary, but much like

attempts to correspond color and tone, seem to be quite seperate YET

interrelated systems. I'm especially skeptical of 'easy' or

'intuitive' correspondences between these.

 

in my own view the attributions don't have good correspondences and

every attempt I've seen has taken what I'd politely call " artistic

liberties " with the arrangements. Heck, Violet May Firth and Aleister

Crowley, both very gifted and advanced students of esotericism as well

as exceptional intellects, give quite different correspondences and

they originated from the same GD current and lived in the same time

period! you find a lot of things that " kind of fit " ... so too in the

right circumstances an engineer can treat a human being as a sphere,

it makes the physics much easier. this doesn't mean our engineer

thinks the human IS a sphere however.
