Book of Creativity : Introduction

Collector #19

This PDF is my raw longhand introduction to my English translation of Sefer Yesira, an ancient Hebrew mystical text important not just for its internal creative effect on major medieval Jewish mystics like Abraham Abulafia, but also for its seminal influence germinating the seeds of modern logic and computing with the looming Golem of AI in view.
