The Chicken Qabalah of Rabbi Lamed Ben Clifford: Dilettante's Guide to What You Do and Do Not Need to Know to Become a Qabalist by Lon Milo DuQuette

4.0

I’ve been meaning to get around to figuring out just what the hell the Qabalah is for years now. I really don’t think I could’ve found a better introduction. It feels like the Hitchhiker’s Guide to Jewish Mysticism—at turns absurd and insightful. It’s also just astonishing to me how nearly every mystical tradition, no matter where it crops up in the world or from which religious or cultural edifice, reaches the same conclusions about reality and our place in it. DuQuette also does a pretty good job of showing how Qabalism intersects with other western occult traditions. I found myself more interested in the Qabalah proper than in these connections, but it’s worth noting that’s a big part of the book. It’s not an exhaustive resource but it’s definitely an accessible one.
