A lo largo de los últimos años se han escrito muchos libros introductorios acerca de la Cábala. Algunos se proponen descifrar superficialmente los conceptos principales de una materia prácticamente impenetrable; otros, buscan describir el modo en el que las enseñanzas místicas se transmitieron a través de los cabalistas más famosos de las distintas generaciones, deteniéndose en anécdotas y fábulas; y otros, en fin, reducen su campo de estudio a dudosas comparaciones entre místicos y pensadores esotéricos de distintas religiones. En todos los casos, la persona honesta que haya leído alguna de estas introducciones a la Cábala permanece con la sensación de no haber dado siquiera un mínimo paso en el camino de la Verdad. A diferencia de los libros hasta ahora publicados en idioma español, El Canto del Alma no es una introducción a la Cábala sino un manual de estudio. Su autor, el rabí Iejiel Bar Lev, quien a su vez escribió un monumental comentario al libro del Zohar, define El Canto del Alma como un manual de estudio que capacita a entrar al mundo del Zohar y otros libros cabalísticos con la preparación adecuada y responsable a quien se entregue de lleno a sus páginas con rigurosidad intelectual y una gran dosis de humildad y modestia. No sorprende, entonces, que este libro, en su versión original hebrea, sea el manual más difundido en los centros de estudio de Torá en Israel. El Canto del Alma es un regalo del Cielo para las mentes y las almas sedientas de verdad.
Many introductory books have been written about the Kabbalah in recent years. Some of them aim at superficially deciphering the main concepts of a practically impenetrable subject; others seek to describe the way in which the mystical teachings were transmitted through the most famous Kabbalists of the different generations, dwelling on anecdotes and fables; others, finally, reduce their field of study to dubious comparisons between mystics and esoteric thinkers of different religions. In all cases, the honest person who has read any of these introductions to the Qabalah is left with the feeling that he has not taken even the smallest step on the path of Truth. Unlike the books so far published in the Spanish language, The Song of the Soul is not an introduction to the Kabbalah but a study manual. Its author, Rabbi Yechiel Bar Lev, who himself wrote a monumental commentary on the book of the Zohar, defines The Song of the Soul as a study manual that enables one to enter into the world of the Zohar and other Kabbalistic books with adequate and responsible preparation, whoever devotes himself fully to its pages with intellectual rigour and a large dose of humility and modesty. It is not surprising, then, that this book, in its original Hebrew version, is the most widely distributed manual in Torah study centres in Israel. The Song of the Soul is a gift from Heaven for minds and souls thirsting for truth.
