Exalted Man

Bag om Exalted Man

In the Qabalistic Tradition, the 4-letter name of God known as the Tetragrammaton represents an explanation for how the creative power of the Divine manifests in the material world. With a simple rearrangement of these 4 Hebrew letters, a design can then be created that resembles a human figure (see front cover). This transmutation between a name for the Divine and an image of humanity is called the Exalted Man and symbolizes the potential for a higher consciousness that exists within us all. This present book entitled The Exalted Man was inspired by the passing of a friend and is a humble attempt to try and find some kind of spiritual understanding in the aftermath of such a loss. Using the Haiku style, which is a 17-syllable Japanese poetic form, The Exalted Man is a collection of 161 mini-meditations designed to introduce the reader to a more expanded perspective on life and change, much like the example set by many monks in the Zen Tradition who, on the verge of dying, would spontaneously compose a Haiku as a lesson to their students on the transition between the known and unknown.
