  Judaism 101: Kabbalah and Jewish Mysticism
The areas of Jewish thought that most extensively discuss these issues, Kabbalah and Jewish mysticism, were traditionally not even taught to people until the age of 40, when they had completed their education in Torah and Talmud.
The mystical school of thought came to be known as Kabbalah, from the Hebrew root Qof-Bet-Lamed, meaning "to receive, to accept." The word is usually translated as "tradition." In Hebrew, the word does not have any of the dark, sinister, evil connotations that it has developed in English.
Kabbalah was popular among Christian intellectuals during the Renaissance and Enlightenment periods, who reinterpreted its doctrines to fit into their Christian dogma.

  Netzach (Kabbalah) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Netzach (נצח) ("victory") is the seventh Sephira in the Kabbalah, located beneath Chesed, at the base of the "Pillar of Mercy".
Netzach is the first of the sephirah to be emanated from Tiphereth, beauty, and it is seen to represent formless energy, that energy that can overcome obstacles, that tendency of life to flourish despite difficult conditions, the motivating libido in humanity.
Netzach, as raw emotional and life energy, is often related to Venus, to song and to dance.

 The Keys to Kaballah   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Kabbalah teaches that we are in human form for the purpose of learning that we are so endowed, and to grow and develop by learning to bring the activity of Yechidah, or spirit, into the experience of life, discovering self-knowledge and self-realisation as we do so.
In astrology, the element of water is assigned to Cancer, and it may be said that the foundation of human personality is of a watery, fluid nature; reflective, as water at night may show the reflection of the moon in the sky, and as the moon itself reflects the light of the sun.
Netzach is one step higher up the Tree of Life than Hod, and is the nearest we come to Self from the lower stages.

 [No title]
The Kabbalah presents a symbolic explanation of the origin of the universe, the relationship of human beings to the Godhead, and an emanationist approach to creation whereby the Infinite Light (AIN SOPH AUR) manifests through different SEPHIROTH on the TREE OF LIFE.
In the Kabbalah, all manifestations are said to have their origin in the AIN SOPH AUR and the successive emanations of the Godhead reveal aspects of his divine nature.
Netzach is regarded as the sphere of creativity, subjectivity, and the emotions -- a very clear contrast to the sphere of HOD, which represents intellect and rational thought.

 Kabbalah
Kabbalah, which is the spelling usually preferred by scholars, specifically refers to oral mystical teaching not normally revealed to the general population, but passed on from the adepts to the initiates.
Although the Kabbalah is founded on the Torah, the Jewish scriptures and other sacred writings, it is no intellectual discipline; and the mystic is not to practice it in solitude, but is to employ it to enlighten humanity.
The Kabbalah, which is based on the theory of the soul's descent from and ascent to God, is made up of ten sephirots instead of nine which is due to the influence of the Pythagorean theory.

 The Ten Sefirot: Netzach
Netzach is associated in the soul with the power to overcome those obstacles which stand in the way of realizing one's chesed aspiration to bestow goodness upon Creation.
Insofar as the word netzach denotes both "victory" and "eternity," it can be said that the ultimate victory of netzach is that over death itself, the final impediment to the pursuit of chesed.
Netzach is not a mortal ("not a man") who fears death and is thereby likely "to regret" in the face of death.

 A Bardon Companion: 8T-Netzach
Netzach (pronounced "netz-awk", with a back-of-the-throat glottal "k" sound) translates into English variously as "truthfulness, uprightness, faithfulness"; "permanency, perpetuity, eternity"; "excellency, glory"; and, "completeness, entireness, perfection." Paul Case, adding these meanings together, translates it as "victorious life" in his Statement #7.
Netzach is the realm of the force of Nature; Hod, the realm of Nature's form.
The journey to the Netzach Temple attempts to strip away these layers of rational obfuscation and brings one, step by step, from the rationally modified response; to the deeper, emotional, gut level reaction; and on to the final destination of a non-reactionary perception of the unmodified force itself.

Kabbalah was progressively bundled in with pythagoreanism, neo-platonism, hermeticism and rosicrucianism to form a snowball which continued to pick up traditions as it rolled down the centuries.
Non-Jewish Kabbalah has suffered greatly from having only a limited number of source texts to work from, often in poor translations, and without the key commentaries which would have revealed the tradition associated with the concepts described.
It is pointless to criticise non-Jewish Kabbalah (as many writers have) for misinterpreting Jewish Kabbalah; it should be recognised as a parallel tradition with many points of correspondence and many points of difference.

However, if you choose to study Kabbalah by name you should recognise that Kabbalah was and is a part of Judaism, and an important part of the history of Jewish people, and respect the beliefs which not only gave rise to Kabbalah, but which are still an essential part of Jewish faith..
Many of the source texts of Kabbalah are commentaries on the Bible, and derive their insights using a variety of devices, such as puns, anagrams, gematria (letter manipulations) and cross references to the same word in different contexts.

 SparkNotes: The Kabbalah: The Ten Sefirot
Kabbalah views judgment without compassion as the root of all evil, and labels compassionless judgment Sitra Aha, literally “the other side.” According to this view, evil arises during the creation of the universe, but only when Tiferet fails to balance the energies of Chesed and Gevurah.

 The Magician's Kabbalah by Frater PPE
The Sepher Yetzirah deems Netzach, "the Hidden Intelligence, for it pours forth a brilliant splendour onto all intellectual virtues which are looked upon with the eyes of the spirit and the ecstasy of faith." In most readings, Netzach is described as the seat of the emotions, partnering Hod, the seat of the Intellect.
Thus, the work of Netzach involves both the practice of Dharana, which seeks to unite the awareness with the object of which it is aware by concentration, contemplation, or meditation, and the practice of Bhakti Yoga, which is the Union with Deity through the practice of Devotion.
