The Secret Garden of the Soul: An Introduction to the Kabbalah - Softcover

"The Secret Garden of the Soul: An Introduction to the Kabbalah by Allan Armstrong is one of the finest introductions to the Kabbalah I have read. It is not light or naive; it is a thorough and deep book, but very accessible", David Goddard, in Positive Health magazine, Issue 148. "It is refreshing to find a book that rises above and beyond a superficial overview of the subject in order to provide readers with real knowledge and understanding into this profound system of spiritual growth", authors Chic Cicero and Tabatha Cicero. "The introduction by R.A. Gilbert alone is worth the cost of the book, but what most surprised me is how thorough this book is for an introductory book on such a vast and complex subject", review on Amazon.com.

An introductory work that sheds light upon the perplexing world of the Kabbalah and guides the reader through its origins and history; throwing light on its obscure terms and mysterious language, explaining and interpreting its symbolism, doctrine and practices. The title reflects the fact that throughout history Kabbalists have likened the soul to being a secret garden hidden deep within us. From the earliest times Kabbalistic teachings and disciplines have been directed towards entering into that secret garden.
