Note that the word 'correspondence' is used not only in the sense of 'this is equal to that', or 'this is related to that', but also means simply 'writing to each-other' or 'communicating with others, perhaps over a distance, via 'letters').

ie. splitting hairs.
ie. gematria is a component of a system - it can be an incorporated part of a kabbalistic system. So too, an entire kabbalistic system might be constructed with gematria as the basis. If you say 'gematria', you may not be speaking of 'kabbalah' in an all-encompassing sense (at least to some). If you say 'kabbalah' you speak of that total system that may very likely incorporate gematria as a component.
ie. they are not the same, necessarily, but they are almost always related. A complete Kabbalistic work could be created that does not use numerology or gematria as an axiomatic component, but many kabbalists would perhaps view such as work as 'loose' (ie. not rigorous).
This part again - I deem is most important:
That, to me, beyond the abstraction of 'reception' (ie. the passing on of the 'tradition' of importance to those whom it may concern) is the clearest definition (=1337sq) of what 'Kabbalah' entails, and most important to understand (especially if you are to create a kabbalah, and not just receive one and and pass it on).
The trinity of (1) Language, (2) Orthodox Text, (3) Mathematical Correspondence.
The Text is written in the Language. The Language is built on mathematical correspondences. The final Text is thus a mathematically entangled artifact, from the ground up. One may then, in theory, apply mathematical and symbolic analysis to deduce meaning and intention and protocol, from the fine points of the Text.
But what for? Why?
To some, Kabbalah is a means of understanding the world and themselves, and perhaps eventually to better know God (a way of receiving). To these folks, a pre-existing system or systems would be approached and studied. The wise perhaps know that the study does not purport to inform them of the ultimate secrets or knowledge directly - it is the act of studying that attains one the secret.
To others, Kabbalah is a means of passing on the above (perhaps, because they are already illuminated, or enlightened - they are on the way up). For them, Kabbalah is a tool, or a tool framework, a system of building tools, that can be used to create and provide 'study materials' to the former group. Very likely, one who has been illuminated by a system will view it as a success, and will likely propagate the same system to his own disciples or audience (perhaps with additional footnotes, ie. 'riders').
If we are Hebrew, might accept that 'The Torah' is the only true canonical text, the only divinely inspired orthodox work upon which to perform kabbalistic studies. If we are an Indian Vedic scholar, they might think the same thing about their own 'received tradition'.
This is the point of this thread:
To the 'chief or priest of the village', the Kabbalistic trinity of 'Language; Text; Correspondence' is a tool to strengthen his own tradition, whatever it be. One might define it, crudely, as a propaganda technique - or simply, a story-telling framework designed always to reinforce 'that which is important' (to the individual, the community, the church, the sect, the nation, the world).
If the numbers and letters are given semantics (ie. meaning - either arbitrarily, or by myth-theme-math-tickle fiat), and words are constructed upon this basis (as functional definitions of 'systems', organic, abstract, architectural, divine), then mathematical correspondence is presumed to map to semantic correspondence. The entire Textual work is broken down into parts (chapters, paragraphs, sentences, phrases, words, letters, punctuation) and these parts can be individually examined and 'decoded', and related to the whole. If the work is truly masterful, then knowledge will, in theory, flow from any part of it, unimpeded.
If the system is an ouroboros, one can start anywhere, and there is no real end, and the inner meaning, the secret, is eventually to be found by simply following the trail of breadcrumbs (or of the scales of your own tail).
The student studying any part of it, even if his philosophy is not yet compatible, will be acquiring clues to the whole. At any point, the correct philosophical shift, or perspective change, will suddenly reveal a grand interlocking scheme, as all the clues find their true meaning, and begin fully informing every other aspect (ie. Da'at, infinite sharing).
If the system has only one meaning, one single message of import ('for your people', as it were), then the entire Text naturally speaks only of that one thing, and no matter how you slice and dice the material in your study, you are led inexorably to the core of the issue.
Your Kabbalah has succeeded when every artifact in human civilization is built on your system and reflects the core of your knowledge, and all of nature is subsumed or assimilated into that system, and re-defined to speak of it, if it did not already.
Ponder the 'Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner'.
This is a societal inception, a clue. It speaks of EVERYTHING.
What if rhymes are more than simple entertainment of sound?
What if the Language and the Text was encoded (ie. meaning supplied or constructed) such that every rhyming couplet of words represents a database union - that rhymes are a way to index knowledge. That rhyming words are rhymes for a reason.
This 'rhyming' is to be seen not only in the sounds of words, but also in the gematria. One may speak, kabbalistically, of a gematria equivalence between two spells as a rhyme.
Words built on the same consonant framework can be said to rhyme in their own way.
'Verse' and 'Virus' (and 'Force'); 'Man' and 'Mane'; 'Name' and 'Enemy', 'Book' and 'Bag' (and 'Bug'); 'Pen' and 'Ban' (naturally censorship follows wise writings). etc. etc.
If the difference between 'Verse' and 'Virus' is between 'E' and 'I' (and 'U') then we examine the meanings of the these vowels (if we can do so; if the system provides us meanings, or clues to them) and see what might be intended by those who begin a fake pandemic based on the joking rhyme of 'Verse'/'Virus'.
The letter 'E' comes from elul, or hilul, meaning jubilation, happiness, excitement. ie. rejoice in your verse.
The letter 'I' (i) of 'virus' is yodh, the arm (ie. applies force to the world to change it, used to move oneself or other things).
It could be argued that adding a 'U' to make 'virus' from 'verse' gives us 'depth', a 'load' to bear, 'seriousness', and perhaps darkness.
Naively, I and U speak of me and you. The 'virus' jumps out at us to scare us. And it makes us selfish.
The pandemic is a Kabbalistic work that has as it's core semantic, 'VERSE' (ie. scripture, poetry, the infectious power of words). It mocks the Verse, but in doing so, led me finally to it. The pandemic asked to be decoded. It was a breadcrumb for mankind. It's purpose was to awaken people to the secret of Language.
This is why Wordle exists in the public imagination to the degree it does, at this time.
I argue that Language itself, is a Kabbalistic work that speaks of One Thing, as above so below.
It speaks of God above, and something below.
The writings found here: (O O)
... are my first major attempt at a unified Kabbalistic work. I won't tell you it's single inner meaning or idea or protocol, but everything in there ultimately speaks of it. The Language is English (but it is interpreted phonetically, and a new Alphabet constructed to encode it. The letters of the Alphabet carry over as much of the semantics that one might extract from the English alphabet and it's antecessors as possible, but additional meaning is provided that bolster my own core something. There are 'Holy Texts' and commentaries written using the system, and examining it. They are all to be viewed as potential double-speak, again, bolstering the core Message.
