I was born a Roman Catholic, but I believe the Hebrew religion is the one true religion to the source. I will not convert but I do practice the Kabbalah . I don't think I am worthy to convert , even if it was possible. Reply

in response to Marcus Carrozza:

You have to be willing to repent from Idolatry and convert takes time. If you are chosen /lots are called though, it will be in the hands of Hashem and all possible with Hashem. We call Him by His name but you can starts if you so desire. It's hope to you Reply

You can’t convert to Judaism. You can only be a follower. You either born Jewish or you ain’t. Reply

in response to Rabbijay:

You can actually convert to Judaism but you have to check with a Rabbi from a particular branch of Judaism. For example, this website is from the Orthodox branch of Judaism and they are also part of the Hasidic movement. The time to convert can vary. For example, I have read at other websites that at least a year so you could experience their complete cycle (Jewish calendar) but more can be required. Also, it is a very serious decision as some Rabbis may be required to try to dissuade from conversion at least three times. After conversion, it is generally considered that you are a Jew, no different than any other Jew. As a note in the Book of Ruth, Ruth says "Your people will be my people and your G-d will be my G-d." It turns out that Ruth, a Moabite, converted and became the great-grandmother of the great Kind David. Reply

I want to learn more about Kabbalah I have been reading on Kabbalah, by myself, for a while. I contacted the Kabbalah Center in Toronto, Canada and San Francisco requesting assistance. Neither responded. Can anyone advise if there are Kabbalists in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, with whom I can communicate and learn. Reply
