Unbelievable book on the topic. Kabbalah, drama... its got it all! (Buy from Amazon.com )
This book deal with the commandment of not to waste one's seed. The wasting of seed includes masturbation, barrier forms of birth control, nocturnal emission, as well as having sexual relations with non-Jewish women. Traditional Judaism holds that every drop of semen has life force. When used in a correct manner (i.e. with one's wife), whether or not it causes pregnancy, semen brings life force into the world that raises divine sparks to heaven (kabalistic notion). However, when one misuses their sexuality and wastes one's seed, that life force gets trapped spiritually and causes the expansion of evil in world. All of the concepts presented in this book are kabalistic in nature. Whether or not the processes mentioned in the book occur is unclear, as to understand the Kabala one has to invest years of study of the Hebrew Bible, Talmud, as well as Chassidic & Kabalistic texts. This is a thorough and serious text, so one is inclined to accept the author on his word. The power of this book is its guidance and inspiration in methods of preventing the wasting of one's seed, even via nocturnal emission, as well as how to repent for prior mistakes. |
