Topic: Adam Kadmon

1 chapters across the catalog

The concept of "Adam Kadmon" in Jewish Kabbalah is described as a "macrocosmic super-being" who was originally bisexual. Dyer links this to Plato's "Timaeus," which conceives of the universe as a "giant man." He argues that these mystical traditions—including the belief in reincarnation found in Pythagoreanism—all prioritize "The One" over "The Many," creating a metaphysical assumption that individual distinctions are imperfect and must be overcome to reach a "higher state" of unity.
