For a lack of knowledge we perish.
August 13, 2008 Newton, Massachusetts
For a lack of knowledge we perish. Our imaginations must create a reality of hope, discernment, and peace. Last night we attend a lecture by journalist, Gustav Niebur a former religion reporter for the NY Times and now an associate professor of religion at Syracuse University. He tells about his 9/11 experience and after seeing ashes fall through the city of New York City, he feels a responsibility to act and create a reality of inter-faith relationships. He tells many stories of communities working together: Muslims, Christians, Jews, Mormons, Quakers, etc. Grassroot opportunities have bonded these communities together after getting to know one another by sharing life cycles, meals, Shabbats, and building houses together at Habitat for Humanity.
We reach out to Muslims, such as yesterday when we were checking out at Trader Joe’s Grocery store. The cashier saw my husband wearing a yarmulke and asks if we are Jewish and I say yes, and we believe in Jesus. She says,
“I believe in Jesus too.”
“Really, I say. How so?”
“She says, as a prophet.”
“I say we believe in him as the Messiah. Kabbalah Nation meets on Saturday evenings from 7-9pm and you are more than welcome to come and learn about Kabbalah. My husband teaches practical Kabbalah where you can immediately begin applying this wisdom to your life for a positive and beautiful change.”
“Fantastic, I need a change! She states.”
If we create these relationships and understandings now, we are planting spiritual understandings so greater political and social change will happen in the future. Just as Yezekial Landau, Director of Abrahamic Programs at Hartford Seminary says, the foundation is at the spiritual level. Until something changes on the spiritual level, no political or social change will occur. We must look at similarities and realize our differences really are not so great and to continue to open our minds to cooperation and tolerance.
So Kabbalah Nation invites people of all faiths to come and learn Kabbalah, ancient wisdom, to build communities of wisdom to realize and recognize peace. Our future we be bright because we are taking time to build communities of tolerance so there will be no bigotry or unexplainable murders to come for our children and communities of faith.

We are in the perfect location accessible to all in the heart of the Jewish community. The train is outside our front door so anyone can reach us at Woodland Station.
Kabbalah Nation Classes in Boston Kabbalah Nation classes begin Saturday, September 6th, 7-9pm! Classes will be held at ArborPoint @ Woodland Station Conference Room, 1940 Washington St., Newton, Ma. Classes will be held weekly. $10/class. RSVP by Sept 3rd. For further information, please contact Rachel @ 617-964-1965 or e-mail Rachel@kabbalahnation.org

For course descriptions & additional information see www.KabbalahNation.org; e-mail Rachel@kabbalahnation.org or call 617-964-1965.
Kabbalah provides our spirits and minds with new ways of thinking. As we were about our business in Needham, Massachusetts – the next town over to Newton – Zusha says, “let’s have “Fast Signs” cut our phone number off the magnetic signs. “Wow, this is a great idea.” As we present this idea to Jonathan at Fast Signs, he asks, “Are you Chasidic? Zusha says, “No we are Kabbalists who believe in Yeshua.” He says, “Interesting.” He tells us how he studied in a Yeshiva and how his Dad is Chabad. We tell him all about Kabbalah Nation and invite him to our classes. “This is great because I am into spirituality and not religion, he says!” We forget the receipt at the counter so he comes outside with the receipt. And another co-worker says, “I am Jewish, can I come also?” So we give her a business card and say, “Check out the web-site for all the dates and times.” Ein Sof speaks to us constantly with new ideas. All we have to do is say, “Yes, let’s try this.” And Ein Sof meets us with surprises along our journeys because he loves us in great ways, and he wants us to succeed!
Books & Jewelry Thank you for the orders! We have sold out of our Beraishis jewelry! We are in the process of a 2nd printing for the book! We realize people all over the world are reading Kabbalah of Yeshua and are hungry for truth and a deeper walk with Ein Sof.

Healing in Kabbalah… Our history of Kabbalists offer solutions to your illness whether physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Kabbalists throughout the centuries have been mighty healers and in fact also with in our family so ministering and living in these spiritual realities are natural. For the last twelve years, we have lived in realities of miracles. We have been ministering perfect faith. Those who believe in perfect faith will be healed! We are seeing tremendous healings! Cancer, AIDS, Cocaine addiction, Anxiety, Taste, Smell, Hearing and more. HaShem says whatever we ask for that aligns with Torah he will answer. HaShem wants us to live in divine health. Throughout our bible, several scriptures refer to healing: James 5:15; 1 Corinthians 6:19, 20; Psalm 107:20; John 1:14; Isaiah 53:4,5; Proverbs 4:21,22; Psalm 103:3-5; Romans 8:11; 3 John 2. Read and meditate on these scriptures; speak the scriptures, lay hands on your part of body that needs healing for Tikkun HaNefesh and believe in perfect faith for your healing. Speak your healing. Live a healing life full of HaShem’s radiance. “The prayer offered with trust will heal the one who is ill—the Lord will restore her or his health; and if s/he has committed sins, s/he will be forgiven.” -- James 5:15 Faith comes by hearing the word of G-d. Pray for your family and friends that need healing. Job in the bible received his healing by praying for others! Nachman’s General Remedy also believes in spiritual healing by reading the following Psalms: 16,32,41,42,59,77,90,105,137,150. Our lineage has always believed in miracles and therefore we are continuing the legacy at Kabbalah Nation. E-mail us your miracle story.
Studying Kabbalah with Yeshua around the world…We are receiving responses from around the world: Portugal, East Africa, and Israel. Those who are seeking a deeper walk with HaShem are growing in glorious ways. His word provides a light to us. Believe and you will receive. Kabbalah is always about receiving the fruit from the Tree of Life. Here are two testimonies:
“Shalom, I am Elder Martin from Kenya, East Africa. I knew of your website a long time a go but I was still reading your website. The truth that you are preaching is excellent and we are now very humbly requesting to be a part of your Ministry and work together. I have 4 congregations here and they all accept the issue of joining your ministry. Receive greetings from the brothers and sisters here we are all excited about you and we do look forward to a strong partnership.” - Eliakim A. of Kenya, East Africa
“Moreover you say: «Welcome to Kabbalah Nation, an organization
dedicated to sharing Kabbalah from a Jewish perspective to Jewish and
CHRISTIAN audiences!» and you've written: «Kabbalah of Yeshua». So, please, consider coming to our dear country to share your
marvelous teachings and to feel our energy!-)
Now it's up to you. But for me, knowing that somewhere in this world
someone is trying to decipher the Kabbalah of Yeshua it simply fills
me with the most pure, deeper and inner joy. And for that I may thank
you in advance.” – Joao M. of Portugal

Kabbalah Nation E-newsletter Vol.1 Issue 4 May 2008
A big thank you to everyone who attended our May Kabbalah Nation New England Connecticut meeting! The spirit of learning fell upon us! The concept of the “big mind” in Kabbalah speaks about opening our minds to Ein Sof, the infinite G-d. This meeting was dressed in success! We thank you in advance for praying for Kabbalah Nation, upcoming classes, and webinars.

Kabbalah in New England/Hartford Seminary…Thank you for praying for our meeting with Professor Landau. This meeting was monumental regarding how Kabbalah can be integrated to build spiritual understanding among Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Hartford Seminary has a worldwide reputation prominently known for Christian/Muslim relations. Rabbi Landau is reading Kabbalah of Yeshua and will be calling us regarding our next appointment to see how we can teach Practical Kabbalah at the seminary. This meeting has been the most provocative! Questions of how we may affect the spiritual dimensions of our world were asked. Please pray for our next meeting with Professor Landau!
Chabad-West Hartford with Rabbi Gopin…Rabbi Gopin calls us regarding a meeting. We graciously return his phone call and he asks for an appointment. The next day we visit his office and questions our orientation towards Kabbalah. He doesn’t understand. Zusha says, “confusion is a good thing.” In Kabbalah the solution always come before the answer. Zusha prays over Matzos secretly in the conference room. Rabbi Gopin still doesn’t understand what is happening and why Zusha is praying kabbalistically. Zusha asks HaShem to infuse the matzos with healing powers and the Shekhinah. He tells Rabbi Gopin to distribute the manna at Pesach for the afikomman to people who are in need of physical, spiritual, or mental healing. Please pray for these people to receive miracles and that Rabbi Gopin will see the hand of Ein Sof; for Yeshua will reveal himself to these people, Rabbi Gopin, and to the Chabad people.
Nutmeg TV Zusha and Rachel attend production classes in editing, field production, sound, editing and directing at Nutmeg TV.

A big thank you to everyone who attended our April Kabbalah Nation New England Connecticut meeting! The spirit of joy fell upon us with laughter! The meeting was a great success! Kabbalah can be studied in groups or individually! For additional information regarding classes, seminars, and conferences see www.KabbalahNation.org; e-mail Rachel@kabbalahnation.org or 860-404-2532.

Kabbalah in New England/Hartford Seminary…
The Chai center in Avon, Connecticut is a Jewish outreach center which sponsors community forums. This month they sponsored a discussion on Muslims and Jews. We attended the forum, and we were asked about teaching “Practical Kabbalah” by the Abdullah Antepli, the Muslim speaker as well as Rabbi Yehezkel Landau, both premier professors at Hartford Seminary. We have an appointment with Rabbi Yehezkel Landau, Director of Abrahamic Partnerships on April 23rd on how we can integrate Kabbalah with Christians, Muslims, and Jews to promote unity with the communities at Hartford Seminary. He knows our background in believing in Yeshua. He will be teaching a curriculum on how Jews and Muslims can unite throughout the nation. His focus of study for the past twenty-five years has been Christian/Jewish relations and after 9/11 he decided to adapt his focus to include Muslims. Many great strides are happening within these communities that are not reported on FOX or CNN. He believes the conflict in the Middle East can only be achieved by spiritual understanding. Pray for our meeting on April 23rd to have favor with Rabbi Landau and the Hartford Seminary!
Happy Passover/Hag Sameach! As each of us moves towards greater freedom, we remember our times of slavery: selfishness, ego, and pride. As the Haggadah says, “In every generation one should regard her/himself as though s/he personally had gone out of Egypt.” (Exodus 13:8) Let us reflect on the times of trial and tribulation and be thankful of how HaShem, the Ruach HaKodesh, and Yeshua have given us redemption! The power of speech is the healing dimension for this month. By our own speech we redeem ourselves. Proverbs speaks about how there is life and death in words we speak. Let us be careful about the words we speak. The Hebrew word for Passover is a conjugation of the words “peh” (the mouth) and sach “speaks”. Just as God formed creation by words, we create our reality by words.

Adar II/Purim
Adar II and Purim are soon to be here. A month of increased joy and miracles. "Reb Nachman of Breslov said it quity simply: sickness comes from a lack of joy and healing comes from joy. Kabbalah says that the holiness we can experience from Purim is even greater than that of Yom Kippur" writes Melinda Ribner from Kabbalah Month by Month.
As we prepare for Adar II and Purim, let us be filled with joy and miracles; let us all remember Amalek of the last generation. From a Kabbalistic perspective, Amalek refers to the negative force, yetzer hara, the evil inclination. Let us exceed in joy to destroy the spirit of Amalek, an anti-God spirit. The joy of Adar II comes from the unification of the material world with the divine. Let us commit to increasing love and joy. Let us focus on chesed (loving-kindness). Traditionally on Purim we give gifts to the poor. Think about how to give. We traditionally make baskets filled with challah, hamataschen, apples, and a book. A couple of years ago, we gave one to an acquantance, and he started placing Rebbe Nachman quotes in our local newspaper in Beaufort, South Carolina. Who would of thought by giving gifts at Purim and a book by Rebbe Nachman would our friend place quotes of ads in the local newspaper so the entire community would start hearing the spiritual advice of Rebbe Nachman? Amazing! We challenge you to be creative in your giving and we expect to hear miracles!
This is the time to see miracles in your life and to increase God's hand. Things do not happen randomly; nothing is an accident. HaShem is communicating with you through every event in your life. Listen closely. Read between the lines. Hashem will have a sense of humor, so you should too.
Give charity. Even poor people are expected to give charity. Charity doesn't have to be money; it can be clothes, food, or other items. It can be small - but everyone has to give.
By celebrating Purim we are transcending our rational minds and going beyond the "I don't know" realm. This brings joy and a sense of wonderment. The Gemara says that in messianic time, all holidays will be abolished except for Purim. Make time for yourself. Prepare. Plan. Try to be happy as you can. Tell jokes. Give gifts to friends and those less fortunate.

Newington, Connecticut Kabbalah Group
On Wednesday, March 6th we attend a Kabbalah study group at B'nai Sholom in Newington, Connecticut. Supernaturally they read about us in the Hartford Courant. The Courant published our love story in February. Pam, the group facilitator, read the article, and she never reads this section, however on this particular Sunday she opened up the section and directly read our article! Hashem supernaturally guides us! So Pam shares with the group about Kabbalah Nation and Mark Power calls us and meets with us a couple of weeks ago. Delightful!
On Wednesday evening we meet with the group and listen to what they have been studying and their walk and faith with HaShem!
So HaShem is always guiding us and directing us where we need to share HaShem with others. My husband led a meditation on Binah conscienceness to direct everyone to the now; he then asked the Ruach to reveal something about the other person in the pairing of groups. He advised that everyone should partner with someone they do not know. The Ruach revealed a vase, a rose, a color and the participants shared with the other person and what that might symbolize in their lives. HaShem works in miracles. Zusha encouraged the participants to share and love others with wisdom.
The members asked about Jesus. Zusha shares with the group that Jesus was a Kabbalist and this is the reason he is crucified. My husband shares the vision of Kabbalah Nation to unite Jews, Christians, and Muslims. The Newington group is on the exact same page; they want an honest and respectful discussion. The time has come. Zusha mentioned we have been commissioned to New England for the spiritual renewal. The members agreed the time is now!
As this week's Torah Parsha says, "Be Strong, Be Strong, and Let us Be Strengthened."

Pam, the group facilitator, read the article, and she never reads this section, however on this particular Sunday she opened up the section and directly read our article! Hashem supernaturally guides us! So Pam shares with the group about Kabbalah Nation and Mark Power calls us and meets with us a couple of weeks ago. Delightful!
On Wednesday evening we meet with the group and listen to what they have been studying and their walk and faith with HaShem!
So HaShem is always guiding us and directing us where we need to share HaShem with others. My husband led a meditation on Binah conscienceness to direct everyone to the now; he then asked the Ruach to reveal something about the other person in the pairing of groups. He advised that everyone should partner with someone they do not know. The Ruach revealed a vase, a rose, a color and the participants shared with the other person and what that might symbolize in their lives. HaShem works in miracles. Zusha encouraged the participants to share and love others with wisdom.
The members asked about Jesus. Zusha shares with the group that Jesus was a Kabbalist and this is the reason he is crucified. My husband shares the vision of Kabbalah Nation to unite Jews, Christians, and Muslims. The Newington group is on the exact same page; they want an honest and respectful discussion. The time has come. Zusha mentioned we have been commissioned to New England for the spiritual renewal. The members agreed the time is now!
As this week's Torah Parsha says, "Be Strong, Be Strong, and Let us Be Strengthened."
Freedom of Religion
I just read about the attack on Merkaz HaRav, the Jewish Seminary in Israel. Apparently they were Arabs in a Cult who killed eight innocent Jews. Our nephew, Evan, is fine. And hopefully a good friend, Shana is okay we pray.
In the United States we have the freedom to study Kabbalah, Judaism, Christianity without constant fear. We need to pray for Israel and lift the family and friends up of the innocent who lost their lives. We need daily to keep Israel in our prayers for protection during these days.
These tragedies of mass murder are ocurring on college campuses and in public places in the United States. This never ocurred when I was in college. Evan said his Rabbi recommends a different jogging route and to carry mace. I think every college student needs to carry Mace for protection.
Every day we place the ministering angels and the hedge of protection around us. Daily we need to be placed in protection with our God.
