The 72 Names of God for Kids: A Treasury of Timeless Wisdom (Technology for the Soul) by Yehuda Berg

Thought this would be a little helpful in explaining some very basic kabbalah and at worst just cute and innocuous, but was sorely disappointed. The kids' artwork is fun and some of the principles admirable, but much of the "names of God" are rather vague, needing either more specific explanations or concrete suggestions on how to make good things happen. (This could be my bias toward action as opposed to just sitting in a chair and thinking things true, as this book recommends.) More show more troubling are two claims: that humans' anger is responsible for earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters, and that bad things that happen to us come about because of bad things we did. I have a very hard time with any line of reasoning that would lead a child to believe s/he somehow caused his/her parents to divorce, or a friend to die, or anything truly beyond his/her or any one person or people's control. If this is what proponents of kabbalah even remotely believe, I want no part of it. show less

The Spiritual Rules of Engagement: How Kabbalah Can Help Your Soul Mate Find You by Yehuda Berg

My mom has been into Kaballah for awhile but I always scoffed. I am not looking for a soulmate, but this book touched me to the core and has me looking more into kaballah. I can believe everything I read here. It's too soon to say, but this book may have changed my life. A must read for any woman who has never really been satisfied with herself, whether she is looking for a soulmate or not.

The 72 Names of God: Technology for the Soul by Yehuda Berg

I was so disappointed in this book. The concept of using 72 names for God as the locii for meditation appealed as a means of pondering God's different aspects and the way each figures in our lives. But Yehuda Berg's attempt to spread these ideas through a chatty style and excessive exclamation points trivializes what could be a profound spiritual opportunity.

True Prosperity: How to Have Everything by Yehuda Berg

I read this every few years. It's a short book but serves as a great reminder that we're in control of our own lives and we "get what we look for." Prosperity is really reaching a state of being truly fulfilled and serving your life's purpose.
