Cabal concept

 The word Kabbalah is of Hebrew origin and means "what is received" which is taken as equivalent to tradition . It is a school of thought , born in France and Spain between the 12th and 13th centuries, and which Hasidic Judaism, a current founded by Rabbi Israel ben Eliezer, of Polish origin, popularized since the 18th century. He tries to find hidden meanings in the Pentateuch or Torah, for which reason he enrolls in esotericism and it is a practice so old that the biblical prophets already practiced it.

It is an experience that must be lived, and cannot be taught theoretically. It implies a state of intimacy with the divine, which the first man, Adam, would have experienced before he sinned. It is a meditation that tries to discover the secrets that God revealed, according to the Bible, to some chosen ones, to whom he gave instructions that they should make known and others that they should keep hidden.

Cabal

The Kabbalists are the ones who manage to get at the mysteries and interpret them, the most important being the secret name of God. Every ontological problem is their concern and the Kabbalists consider that these mysteries that they try to discover are prior to any religion.

Despite not being able to be taught, there are important texts to understand Kabbalah, such as "The Book of Formation" or Sefer Yetzirah, which was written between the 3rd and 4th centuries, which transmits the oral teachings that Abraham would have done. Another fundamental book is the Zohar, which translates as "splendor", where the universe is analyzed, divided into the empire of light with ten spheres, and that of darkness, with many others.

The contemporary Kabbalah began with Rabbi Isaac Luria (1534-1572) who carried out his action in the north of Israel, in the community of Safed. His disciples considered Isaac Luria a saint and attributed miracles to him, being the ones who put the teachings of his teacher into writing.

Since the Renaissance , the Kabbalah was used to link it with other religions or beliefs, but with the Enlightenment of the 18th century, where reason gained enormous prestige, the Kabbalah began to be studied in a secret and clandestine way , associated with magic.

Since the 20th century, Kabbalah, as a spiritual reunion , has become a movement that transcends Judaism.

Another use of the term is to designate the conjectures that can be made about things that are going to happen, especially based on superstitions, for example: "For Kabbalah, I always wear my grandfather's ring when I have to specify something important", " Always, by cabal, when I take the first step of the day, I do it on the right foot" or "I need a cabal so I don't get nervous the day I declare my love to the woman of my dreams."

concept of riding

To ride is an irregular, non-pronominal verb with the first conjugation, which came to our language from the Latin “caballicare”, which designates the action of riding an animal, especially a horse. The sport and practice of riding a horse is known as horsemanship.

Horse riding is a sporting activity carried out by humans, thanks to the domestication of horses, which in Europe and Asia, would have happened since the beginning of history, since by nature , horses are wild animals, which before being Domesticated, they were used for the consumption of their meat, and only after managing to control them, they were used for transportation, for warfare and for walking.

Horseback riding, are excursions that are made on horseback, to be in contact with natural places, and move faster and through more complicated places, than if you did it on foot.

riding

Learning to ride requires training and skill, beginning to do it with tame horses and of a certain age so that they are calmer. The left foot is placed in the stirrup to push towards the equine's back and the reins are held firmly. It is preferable that it is counted at the beginning, with the help of another person who supports the head of the animal, while it is mounted. When sitting in the chair, you must keep your back upright and in a position that ensures balance. The legs should point inwards and the heels should be below the hips. To give the horse the cue to walk, it should be gently squeezed with the legs. If pushed harder, the horse will trot.

In the Cinema, "Ride Alone" is a 1959 American film, directed by Budd Boetticher and script by Burt Kennedy. It is about a bumpy ride on horseback, made by a bounty hunter, who catches a man accused of murder and leads him to his trial.

In Geology, thrust faults are caused by compression forces, being a type of reverse fault, where the Earth's crust breaks and the lower rocks move upwards.

In Neonatology, babies born by natural childbirth may present a bone overhang, with overlapping edges or suture lines, in the cranial region. This disappears after a few days, when the head expands. However, if the bony plates present premature fusion, growth along the edges stops, resulting in abnormal head shapes.

chivalry concept

Cavalry, is a term that is applied to animals that belong to the family of equine mammals , used for the transport of cargo or for horseback riding, and everything related to them.

Particularly, cavalry (from the French “cavalerie”) is called in the armies, to the body of soldiers who fought on horseback, for which strong breeds were bred; and once this modality of combat was left aside, cavalry was called, those who fight in vehicles equipped with engines.

At first, the cavalry was used in battles, collaborating with the infantry, carrying out enveloping maneuvers and chasing fleeing enemies.

One of the great ancient armies was the Macedonian, which converted, during the reign of Philip II (359 BC - 336 BC) and his son Alexander the Great (336 BC - 323 BC) to Macedonia, in the main Greek power, forming an army with its own citizens, and not with mercenaries, favoring the infantry over the cavalry that had been, until then, the main force, using it as support for the phalanx, in combined attacks, making military activity a full time task. The "companion cavalry" was the heavy cavalry, made up of members of the nobility. The three thousand knights that made it up were divided into twelve squadrons. For recognition campaigns, to start the battles or to pursue enemies, they had a light cavalry, armed with javelins.

Traditionally, the Roman cavalry used small horses. The first Roman cavalry regiment would have been formed by its first king, Romulus, made up of 300 knights (one hundred for each of the three original tribes) who made up his personal guard. They were the "celeres". In the sixth century B.C. C, the king Servio Tulio, organized the population into centuries according to their wealth, which in total were one hundred and ninety-three. In addition to serving to collect taxes and integrate the army, the centuries gave participationin new popular assemblies, called centuries-old elections, where they voted according to an order, the first of them being the cavalry, made up of citizens of the equestrian class (equites) who participated in the fight on horseback, and had more than 100,000 aces, for only they could support their horses.

The cavalry from the High Roman Empire, had a crucial importance , constituting, with the infantry, units of mixed type, having an even more prominent role, in the Low Empire, started in the year 284. This continued in the Eastern Empire, while the West, in the power of the barbarian peoples since the year 476, pre- eminence was given to the infantry. However, from the 8th century, the Carolingian armies focused their power on armored cavalry.

The Arab peoples opted for the use of light cavalry, arming the riders with sabers and spears, light cavalry being the one that characterized the Modern Age of central Europe, although heavy cavalry had not yet been dismissed. The appearance of firearms did not prevent cavalry from continuing to be used, until it did disappear, in the 19th century, with the invention of the machine gun.
