Divine Presence Angels, Guides and the Messiah in Kabbalah with Reverend Marie-Elsa Roche Bragg
Generations of Jewish and Christian mystics have discussed Angels, Guides and the Messiah as phenomena that are as real as nature itself. But after the scientific revolution and modern enquiry into the imagination, the discussion has become less familiar. This talk will ask how we can pick up that thread of our tradition and begin to make sense of it for our time.
The session will begin with a brief introduction to the Kabbalah, along the lines of Marie-Elsa’s talk in November 2021. A complete recording of the talk can be found in the Wisdom Resources section of the website here.
