When was kabbalah started?
It started with Abraham the Patriarch four thousand years ago, who wrote a book called Sefer Yetzira (The Book of Creation). The next important work is The Book of Zohar, written in the second century CE. The Zohar is followed by the works of the Ari, a renowned 16th century Kabbalist. And the twentieth century saw the appearance of the works of Kabbalist Yehuda Ashlag. Ashlag’s texts are best suited for our generation. They, as well as other Kabbalistic sources, describe the structure of the upper worlds, how they descend and how our universe, with everything that’s in it, came into existence. Yehuda Ashlag’s textbook Talmud Eser Sefirot (The Study of the Ten Sefirot) is designed as a study aid with questions, answers, materials for repetition and explanations. This is, if you will, the physics of the upper worlds, describing the laws and forces governing the universe on the spiritual realm. For further info: www.kabbalah.info

What is kabalah?
Mystical teachings that deal with the ideas of creation and concepts of a spiritual nature. Broadly speaking, the Jewish mystical tradition seeks to investigate, to the extend that such is possible and admissible, why and how the blessed Creator created (and and continuously re-creates) His world. "To the extend that such is possible": any insight we may gain in these matters is always from our point of view and inasfar as He chooses to show us. "To the extend that such is admissible": when dealing with a nuclear reactor one exercises a certain caution. That's just a piece of technology. The "active core" that makes the world tick is incomparably more powerful and not just physically but first and foremost spiritually. Due care is of the essence.Kabbalah is not something distinct from Judaism. It is not a sect that you can join. In order to access its treasures one needs a thorough grounding in Jewish learning: Tanakh, Mishna, Talmud, commentaries, ethical and moral literature, etc etc.Kabbalah cannot be found on the Internet. Period. It also has no "Holy Water", magical stones or miraculous bracelets.Kabbalist Yehuda Ashlag (Baal HaSulam) provides the following definition in his article "The Essence of the Wisdom of Kabbalah":This wisdom is no more and no less than a sequence of roots, which hang down by way of cause and effect, in fixed, determined rules, interweaving to a single, exalted goal described as, "the revelation of His Godliness to His creatures in this world."Additional:It is not a ''faith'', but a science. It may have its origin in trying to reconcile the apparent ''errors'' in the Torah that even a beginner in the study of Hebrew would not make. By methods too involved to enter into here, the text was, is and will continually be ''decoded'' to reveal, to the discerning student under the guidance of a good teacher, wonderful things about the relationship between the Divine and phenomenal worlds, secrets of living a happy and fulfilled life, and even scientific knowledge not otherwise available. For instance, in the section of the Zohar named "Bereshith" it is said that ''white is the colour that contains all colours." This was written down centuries before Newton experimented with light passing through a prism, and replaced the then current hypothesis (that the white light ''excites'' the crystal to emit colours) with the idea of the colour spectrum concealed within the white light.In the same way, the study of the Torah with the methods of Kabbalah, while not undermining the value of the surface text (the white light) reveals the spectacular secret of the spectrum (Kabbalistic Knowledge, Understanding and Wisdom).Answer:Among other things, the Kabbalah delves into the details of the Upper Worlds (the Sephirot).
