- Many kabbalists died young, examples are the Ari, Ramchal, Ben Azi, and in recent times R' Aryeh Kaplan.
- These people were advanced for their generation and were taken away lest they cause an imbalance.
- Meaning certain things aren't supposed to happen before their due time.
- Some people take these cases as a sign that people should stay away from kabbalah.
- This is foolishness, for these kabbalists accomplished in their short lives more then hundreds of other people in their long wasted lives.
