A Kabbalistic View of History

Kabbalistic View of History describes the story of humanity and the purpose of Existence in terms of kabbalistic principles. As evolution moves from savagery to civilisation, so the vegetable, animal and human levels of mankind emerge. The Gilgulim or Wheels of Reincarnation teach young souls how to live on Earth, while their elders either dominate or illuminate the course of history. Cosmic cycles are also taken into account as they influence historic periods, while critical choices generate personal and collective karma. The development of humanity is monitored by Providence within a vast Divine plan.
