Open to All ~ Invite Your Friends!

These are extraordinary times, and Kabbalah offers us incredible strength and justice, providing compassion, calm, and order to situations that might otherwise lead to chaos, destruction, or conflict. Carlos de León invites students and friends of Ontogony to join an online series exploring the Names of God—Adonai and El Shaddai—and their profound spiritual significance.

Understanding the Divine Names: In essence, God has no name. Being infinite, God cannot be fully encapsulated by any title or description. Yet, in creation, God chooses to engage with us—His creatures—and the world at large. To do so, God assumes different manifestations, which we recognize through the various Names of God: Creator, Judge, Merciful One, Master, and more. Each name represents a unique way to experience God's presence. As the Midrash states, "You want to know My name? I am called according to My actions."

Exploring the Names Adonai and EL Shaddai: Kabbalists meditate on hundreds of Divine Names, each revered equally as expressions of the one God. Jewish tradition highlights seven holy names of God that cannot be erased and must be written with unique concentration, each linked to the seven inferior spheres of the Tree of Life. Adonai relates to Malchut and El Shaddai to Yesod—among the closest spiritual realities to our everyday lives.

Every time you invoke "Lord" or "God Almighty," you invoke a specific Divine action, often without realizing it. For instance, in Jewish tradition, "Adonai" is pronounced whenever the Tetragrammaton appears in prayer. Similarly, referring to Jesus as "Lord" (Adonai) carries a deep, specific significance in Christianity.

The Power of Hebrew: The Names of God and the Bible are traditionally written in Hebrew. Translations into other languages can dilute these sacred revelations' original intention and depth. Hebrew letters are not merely symbols; they embody profound spiritual meanings. Understanding these letters can deepen our learning and enhance our spiritual experiences, opening new avenues for insight and growth.

As outlined in the Sefer Yetzirah ("Book of Formation"), the Hebrew alphabet represents divine energy patterns. Kabbalists believe Divine Names' correct permutation and pronunciation can empower individuals to heal, perceive distant events, or even create a golem (a humanoid from clay). The Zohar further emphasizes that every element of the Bible holds multiple levels of meaning, urging us to look beyond the surface.
