ARI Online Kabbalah Education Center Opens Virtual Classroom For Second Life Community
Toronto, Canada – March 28, 2008 – ARI Online Kabbalah Education Center, a leader in distance learning and Internet TV is proud to announce the opening of a virtual classroom for the Second Life community, the most popular virtual reality environment in the world. ARI Online has designed a new introductory course on the wisdom of Kabbalah specifically for residents of the virtual world called, “Understanding Yourself Through Kabbalah”. The first introductory Second Life lecture will take place on Sunday March 30 at 6:00PM PDT
Foremost Kabbalist Rav Michael Laitman, PhD, the founder and president of the Ashlag Research Institute commented on the expansion to the virtual world, “There are millions of people using Second Life and our hope is to attract them to Kabbalah, explain what the wisdom of Kabbalah is and how much it can benefit them.”

The Second Life curriculum provides a response to escalating global issues by demonstrating how we all interconnected at a higher reality. The goal is to begin recognizing this parallel reality to ours in order to restore harmony on our planet. By teaching us how to reach wholeness, completeness and balance with nature, the method of Kabbalah enables us to discover our role in creation, and what can be done to lead the world to stability and peace. Classes also provide insights about where the world is heading, and how we can help avoid future crises.
The Second Life series of lectures will address the many misconceptions about Kabbalah while shedding light on current affairs: The escalating global crisis: natural disasters, terrorism, collapse of health and education systems, collapse of the economy; Freedom of choice -- where we have it and where we don't; Reality -- how we can expand our perception of the reality we live in and learn to design it.
According to North American Director Tony Kosinec who has introduced thousands of students to authentic Kabbalah over the years, “Second Life’s virtual reality environment provides the ultimate conditions for becoming acquainted with the hidden wisdom. People from all walks of life are very drawn to these concepts but prefer to participate in an anonymous manner until they understand what it is truly about.”
