Kabbalah Religious Book

Is there a book called "Kabbalah"? If not what holy texts do jews and those who practice Kabbalah use for their source of Kabbalah?

Re: Kabbalah Religious Book

there is no book called kaballah. Kaballah is a form of Jewish mysticism. The central Jewish text is the Torah. This is what Jewish mystics as well as regular Jews use, as well as the Talmud, and the commentaries, and codes, and etc, and then there are some specifically mystical books but I'm not sure what the point is in studying kabbalistic texts alone, without any other texts. Better, I'll link you to some sites that might be helpful:

http://www.templesanjose.org/Judaism...balahindex.htm
http://inner.org/
http://www.kabbalaonline.org/
http://www.kabbalah.info/

If you're looking for the Madonna kabbalah, go to www.kabbalah.com. I can't say that they're a great source, but I can't say they're not so great a source since I've never been to a center. Then again, I've heard things. I've heard things.

Shalom u'vracha.
