The Tree Of Life: A complete map for the path of the soul in this modern world - Mike Bais
This week’s show is with Mike Bais. Mike is a physiotherapist, counselor, university lecturer and author, also having had his own practice for many years. He is a trained priest in the esoteric christian tradition, which lead him to follow the mystical side of this lineage called the A.S.A. (Apostolic Succession of Arimathea). He believes that the Teachings of Christ are universal and should not be limited to a religious structure.
Listen or watch on:
His esoteric training comes from the western mystery tradition and the Toledano Kabbalah. Living in the Netherlands (Utrecht) he extensively worked with teachers and groups in the UK.
After some decades of study and practice in the western esoteric tradition, the inner work came together in these three streams or disciplines that make up the Circle of Avalon.
Mike sees it as his life’s work to teach these traditions to whomever wishes to receive them. He is a mystic and teacher by nature and through his groups, individual sessions, workshops and writing, transmits them in the most pure and true way he knows.
Mike is the author of 3 books: Paths on the Tree of Wisdom – A course in 21st Century Kabbalah, A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 1 and A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 2.
In this show, Mike and Lian discuss the relevance of the Kabbalah Tree of Life to the path of the soul in today’s modern world.
Kabbalah Tree of Life
The Tree of Life is a central concept in Kabbalah, representing universal principles that can be applied to any person or spiritual path - it provides a mirror that reflects the 10 principles of life and the modes of experience. The Kabbalah provides a complete path for those in the Western tradition, offering a way to relate inner realities to the modern world and move towards unity.
Mike and Lian emphasise the importance of embracing the material world and the physical universe as expressions of divinity and the role of self-awareness, choice, and free will in the development of the soul.
The invitation of this episode is to become co-creators of our own lives and to have a deeper understanding of ourselves and our place in the cosmos.
We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.
What you’ll learn from this episode:
The Toledano Kabbalah is a branch of Kabbalah that is inclusive, universal, and pragmatic, it provides a map for understanding the path of the soul and the different levels of reality that can be relevant and available to anyone, regardless of their background.
The material world, including the body, is seen as an expression of divinity in Kabbalah, and so it is an immanent as well as transcendent path.
The Kabbalah provides a complete path for those in the West, offering a way towards what might be described as awakening, enlightenment or unity, in the same way Eastern traditions do.
