Miguel Conner's video: Kabbalah for Heretics: Aeon Byte Gnostic Radio

The most popular Jewish Messiah ever was a mystic named Sabbatai Zevi. In the 17th Century, he shook the foundations of the Jewish, Muslim and even Christian world. Zevi's controversial, esoteric views included following The Law by breaking it, becoming Enlightened by converting to as many religions as possible and a radical interpretation of the Torah that echoed the teachings of the Gnostic Sages of the ancient past. His movement never ended, surviving and evolving into various streams throughout history, including an amazing syncretic ideology known today as Neo -Sabbatian Kabbalah. We study this poignant Mystical Messiah and the mercurial (and highly Gnostic) worldview of Neo-Sabbatianism. Astral Guest-- Yakov Leib HaKoHain, author of 'Kabbalah and the Interpretation of Dreams', 'For the Sake of God: An Answer to Jung' and To Die for the People: A Jewish Interpretation of the Crucifixion'. Topics Discussed: --The life, times and impact of the overlooked Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. --The reasoning behind the antinomian belief system of Neo-Sabbatian Kabbalah, including why God needs us as much as we need Him. --How sin is defeated by sinning. And how redemption is achieved through lifetimes of incarnations. --Similarities between Neo-Sabbatianism and Gnosticism that include a Cosmic Cataclysm, a deficient Creator God, a fallen Female Principle and Divine Sparks residing in every human being. --Understand the 'Job Principle': The more enlightened we become the more misfortune comes our way. --The provocative concept of the Jewish Messiah in the Kabbalah in general, who has worked through many vessels throughout history. --How Jung's mysticism has shaped Neo-Sabbatian Kabbalah. --Yakov's own experiences and conversion to Catholicism, Hinduism and Islam, in order to be a true Jewish follower of Sabbatai Zevi. And much more!!! The Gates of Imagination the Kabbalah speaks about are open for business! Abraxas
