Garden of Eden
In this lecture there is an image of the Sephiroth on a female and she is facing forward but the Sephiroth are aligned with Binah on the right side of her brain and Chokmah on the left. Is this a mistake or am I not understanding something here. Her feet are facing forward...so this is why I ask. If her spine were facing us then the Sephiroth would be in the correct order.
I just want to make sure I am not confused. Thank you.

Some of the previously used artwork is not perfect, but is useful for conveying some general principles, such as how the human being is a tree of life. The lecturers have made a conscientious effort to develop and provide better quality images that more accurately convey these truths.

There is another image at the bottom of INTRODUCTION TO KABBALH with a similar image. Scroll down to see "The Purpose of Kabbalah" and to the right you will find an image of a women with her feet facing forward with Binah on her right hemisphere of the brain and Chokmah on her left hemisphere of the brain.
Thank you.

Thank you for your response. I actually spent thousands and thousands of dollars in a modern day school that taught me the improper placement of the tree of life. They put Binah as right brain and Chokmah as left brain. Honestly, their school was a short study, but it is this degenerated school that almost all modern "new age" students are studying. I later found out it was a black magic school, as the male "leader" can not enter into the USA due to sexual child abuse on males.
It wasn't until I took a 3 year course in Kabbalah where I learned the proper placement of the Sephiroth, in addition to The Gnostic Kabbalah which puts Binah as left brained and Chokmah as right brained.
None the less, there are a variety of images all over the internet and in all the modern day Kabbalah books that always confuse me......so thank you for this clarification.
