The Way of Kabbalah – Rabbi David Ingber
Access the power of ancient Jewish mysticism’s multidimensional map of consciousness for greater wisdom, love and growth.
Be blessed by a postmodern, scientific, interspiritual approach to a powerful lineage that offers practical guidance for your daily life.
Have you been curious about Jewish mysticism or the mystical school of thought known as Kabbalah?
Kabbalah has recently surged in popularity, even outside of Jewish circles, for a reason…
And you now have the opportunity to explore this ancient wisdom.
With deep roots woven from Judaism, Kabbalah literally means “receiving tradition” and was passed down orally from rabbi to rabbi to preserve the sacred message explaining the relationship of the unchanging, eternal, mysterious divine and the mortal, physical and finite world. This received wisdom is much more than an exploration of the mysteries of the universe… it’s a profound adventure inward.
Kabbalah offers a uniquely integrated, holistic pathway to spiritual growth — from practical change to deep wisdom and healing.
It is about aligning your energy with the deeper structure of the universe and seeing your life through the lens of the “Sephirot” — 10 spheres that represent a kind of “energetic anatomy” of the universe.
In the teaching of Kabbalah, you are a microcosm of the Cosmos, where God is continually incarnating, healing and evolving… a unique expression of the Divine in motion. Through this sacred wisdom you can become fully radiant and alive.
For centuries, these ancient Jewish mysteries were withheld from even observant and committed Jews, and only recently taught outside of the Jewish faith.
We’re now blessed to be able to understand, practice and apply this powerful path in a modern, global context — one in which serious seekers of wisdom have the chance to develop the “divine eyes” that each of the ten Sefirot represent.
Each of these spheres is a prism through which to view part of the universe and your role in it. They offer qualities of being that help you become more skilled, virtuous, and wise in how you address different situations. Kabbalah teaches you to relate to the world from a stance of wholeness and balance. From this stance, we can heal internally and externally.
Kabbalists particularly see our role as humans as Tikkun Olam — a phrase that means, “repairing the world by reassembling the divine shards that have broken.”
By engaging the practices of Kabbalah, you better learn how to heal that which has been broken and to liberate the true inner light of the Divine in your life.
Seeing the World With Divine Eyes
In the Way of Kabbalah, a brand new 7-module program with Rabbi David Ingber, you’ll receive foundational insights and practices that bring alive the “Tree of Life” — the symbolic map at the core of Kabbalah.
Rabbi David will guide you a spiritual journey in which you receive practical guidance for integrating and aligning these 10 energies to create a life foundation that’s wise, loving and whole.
Kabbalists have always been scholar-mystics with families, careers and worldly responsibilities. This powerful mystical lineage does not emphasize monastic practice but instead, a life of integral wholeness in which every aspect of our lives becomes radiant with the light of the Divine.
You’ll expand your understanding of life and the Cosmos. You’ll begin to see with divine eyes, open to a deeper meaning of words, numbers and symbols, and live with more joy.
You’ll savor the richness of a tradition that sees the movement of the Divine in all things. This brings you a more multi-dimensional experience of your life.
The Power of a Profound Teacher
The quality of our engagement with any spiritual teacher depends a great deal on the authenticity of that teacher. At The Shift Network, we searched for years to find the right teacher to bring alive Jewish mystical tradition in a way that would speak to you in the most profound way.
We are delighted to have found that teacher in Rabbi David Ingber. Rabbi David was steeped in the Hasidic tradition in his younger years, then went on a profound multi-faith quest in which he drank in the wisdom of many esoteric traditions and practices.
He then re-engaged his lineage with a more interspiritual, holistic, and integrative lens. He is able to make esoteric ideas not only practical but relatable to many other systems. Given that we appreciate the wisdom of many lineages, Rabbi David is perfect for us to begin to harvest the gems of insight from Jewish mysticism and understand the profound linkage points to other major traditions.
Rabbi David is both a scholar and a heart-teacher, one who can transmit the essence of a teaching both on a philosophical level as well as by grounding it in stories from everyday life. Because of his ability to bridge many worlds, he has been honored for being one of the most influential Rabbis in America.
More Than a Course, a Journey Into Wisdom

What You’ll Discover in These 7 Modules
In this 7-part transformational program, David will guide you through the fundamental spiritual skills and competencies that you’ll need to successfully understand the 10 energies of the Tree of Life and to see the world through the Kabbalistic prism.
Each contemplation and training session will build harmoniously upon the next so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools and principles you’ll need to sustain your awakened heart and mind and walk in the world with Kabbalistic intention.
Module 1: Origins of Kabbalah (Recorded December 1)
In this first module, you’ll discover the hidden sources of the oldest Western mystical tradition. From biblical prophetic schools and the visions of seers like Ezekiel to the Rabbis of the Talmud building Merkavah or Chariots, with Rabbi David’s guidance you’ll follow the winding wisdom masters path to seeing God.
In this session, you’ll:
- Be initiated into the circle of all who have engaged in the art and science of Kabbalah as we align our intention to draw living waters from this deep well of wisdom
- Discover a basic Kabbalistic incantation to be used to unite head and heart, through love and reverence to the Divine Wisdom in Kabbalah
- Explore the roots of Kabbalah, and who, how and why it was created
- Learn the three basic schools of Kabbalah — the meditative, magical and philosophical
Module 2: Tree of Life’s 10 Energies of Evolution (Recorded December 8)
This module will introduce you to the Kabbalistic GPS — Guide for Purposeful Spirituality. The 10 Sefirot or Divine Energies are the basic blueprint for understanding our soul. You’ll discover the first three of the Sefirot/Divine Energies, known as the Divine Mind or Mochin. The Upper Triad (Keter, Chokhmah and Binah) or Crown, Wisdom and Understanding are also known as Ayin or No-thingness, Father and Mother.
In this session, you’ll:
- Put on the mind of G-d
- Discover how to notice the states of consciousness in your own life
- Develop practices to expand these states of being
- Read the Bible through the eyes of the Kabbalist
Module 3: Living, Loving, Acting The Lower Triads (Recorded December 15)
Continuing the mapping of the Sefirot/Divine Energies, we will move to Lower two Triads, and the last Sefirah, Malchut (Chesed, Gevurah, Tiferet/Netzach, Hod, Yesod/Malchut). The lower energies, known as Middot (or measures) control, balance and support the full holistic energetic system through emotional calibration and energetic action. Malchut, or Shechinah is the Divine Feminine principle of manifestation and radical Divine Presence.
This module will also introduce you to the Sacred Marriage (hieros gamos) or Tiferest with Shechinah, and how that union, in our hearts, minds and lives brings about Divine Blessing for the entire Cosmos.
In this session, you’ll:
- Learn the dance of effective energetic action in the world, based on understanding endurance and surrender, pushing and pulling.
- Discover the formula and form of the sacred marriage of beauty/heart with expression and lived-Divine presence, called the ‘union of G-d’s name’.
- Come to understand how manifestation is rooted in purpose and action rooted in heart-opening is the promise of the Tree of Life.
Module 4: Tzimtzum or Divine Contraction (Recorded December 22) (Pre-recorded)
This module will introduce the power of Lurianic Kabbalah, based on the system of the great 16th century mystic, Kabbalist Rabbi Isaac Luria, who taught that in order to create the world, God contracted Her essence to make room for the world. Most of us imagine “withdrawal” as the opposite of creative living. Most of us imagine expansion as the core principle of creation but not so say the Kabbalist. Divine Light needs veils to be seen and so do we.
In this session, you’ll:
- Discover the theory known as Tzimtzum (or constriction) which has deep meditative and psychological application
- Explore the power of creative constriction or the mystery of Tzimtzum
- Learn the Tzimtzum meditation — a meditative practice and visualization that births new worlds
Module 5: Worlds & Souls (Recorded January 5)
You will learn the basic structures of the Kabbalistic ‘Great Chain of Being’, the unfolding of the 5 basic dimensions (or worlds) of reality, starting with Adam Kadmon (Primordial Man) all the way to the dimension of Assiyah (the world of manifestation). Each world correlates to a different energetic body and each world or dimension has its own reality.
In this session, you’ll:
- Learn to identify and live appropriately in each dimension
- Explore the inner structure of each dimension and its language
- Discover meditation techniques to help familiarize you with each soul/world combination, using the Kabbalistic map towards achieving self-knowledge
Module 6: Rectifying Reality Broken Vessels & Tikkun (Recorded January 12)
In the Kabbalah of Rabbi Isaac Luria, the primordial lights of Creation were too intense for the earliest vessels and the vessels broke. This shattering, or “breaking of the vessels” was a cataclysmic event, alluded to in the Bible and hinted at in the Zohar but not fully expressed until the 16th Century. This shattering serves as the background for all human life and specifically, the work of the Kabbalist, whose job it is to discover the light hidden in the broken, material world. Locating sparks of light and releasing them is called Tikkun.
In this session, you’ll:
- Study the underlying mythological background of this profound Kabbalistic assertion
- Learn the practices used by centuries of Kabbalists to “release sparks of Divine Light”
- Explore the implications of this mystical approach on our everyday life
Module 7: Divine Eyes & Messianic Consciousness (Recorded January 19)
In classical Jewish thought, the Messiah (or Mashiach), is seen as a redemptive figure, a person who will herald a new world, a utopian reality of peace, safety, abundance and the absence of discord. For the Kabbalist, this prophetic vision is seen as a realized internal awareness of the Divine Reality, the ever-present possibility of Presence, of Divine Fullness and Radiance. The Kabbalist seeks to see with G-d’s Eyes, to hear with G-d’s Ears and to love with G-d’s Heart. This Messianic Consciousness, known as Mochin d’Gadlut (or Big Mind) is not something found outside of the awakened individual but rather is the complete and profound actualization of the Tree of Life herself and is known as shalom, or complete and perfect wholeness. We will study and practice this Kabbalistic teaching.
In this session, you’ll:
- Discover a deeper understanding of non-dual consciousness
- Explore the profound insights into Feminine and Masculine psychology, that integrates line (kav) and circle (igul)
- Learn the mystical chants of Messianic Meditations
- We will wrap up the course and prepare to live the Way of Kabbalah in the world
