Karen Berg Brings Tikkun Olam to World Through Women


Karen Berg has been co-directing the Kabbalah Centre alongside her husband and spiritual soul mate, Rav Berg, for over fifty years. As the co-director she has been able to guide the Kabbalah Center toward broadening the number of students that come in contact with Kabbalah and who in turn bring the practice of Kabbalah into the world. In her special role as a woman, Karen Berg has especially made the Kabbalah accessible to a large number of women, who are in a unique position as women, to help spread the message of Tikkun Olam to others.

This achievement is even more significant because until Karen Berg was able to create an atmosphere in which women could become students of Kabbalah, the Kabbalah was closed to women and they simply did not learn this special, ancient and life-sustaining wisdom. I would like to give a big thank-you to Karen Berg for helping women to change their own lives and the lives of everyone around them, and making the world a better place to live, for everyone.
