Multicultural Gathering In Israel Promotes Inner Peace

Shared by Bob Kline, Pennsylvania, USA

For five consecutive years, the International Kabbalah Congress has established itself as one of the world’s most culturally diverse gatherings for spiritual growth. A three-day celebration of human unity and deeply transforming personal experiences, the 2009 Congress hosted around 6,000 guests from over 50 countries.

A press released announced that despite the tension between Israel and its neighboring countries, flight costs and a growing uncertainty about the global financial situation, record numbers made the annual journey to attend this meeting. The Tel Aviv Exhibition Grounds in Israel was a place of magnificent diversity, a coming together of people of all ages and from all walks of life including celebrities, performing artists, engineers, road workers, dancers, administrators, students, musicians, stock-investors, teachers, performers, tradesmen, writers, DJs, plumbers, academicians, politicians, and designers, to mention a few.

The aim of this annual event is to discover and nurture the common point of human unity beyond all the differences that separate people, and to create a special environment that will allow participants to realize the true potential that lies in the connection between people. In other words, this congress aims to give its participants a taste of the better world we all dream about and the practical tools for taking our first steps toward becoming one big human family.
