No, she did not convert. she is not Jewish, she does not consider herself Jewish and she does not identify as Jewish
"When asked to what extent would she would characterize herself Jewish? Madonna reportedly laughed the question off, saying "No, I don't affiliate myself with any specific religious group. I connect to different ritualistic aspects of different belief systems, and I see the connecting thread between all religious beliefs."

Thanks for the clarification. She is listed as a convert to Kabbalah on a few sites listing converts to Judaism

That is an awesome response. believe from what I have read about it Kabbala is the spiritual aspect of Judaism.
From inner conviction. I always had it in me. That, resulted in Search. Search resulted in knowledge. Knowledge resulted in proof to inner conviction. Both resulted in firm belief.
I am a Christian because of my mother’s faith, and her mother before her. I am thankful my mother raised me to love Jesus. My wife and I raised our kids the same way, and now our grandkids are expressing their love for Christ. A great family legacy!
Well, I was raised in an LDS household by two parents who were practicing but "not your average Mormons." They never had a meltdown if I questioned something I heard taught in Church and they had no problem with my early interest in other denominations of Christianity. I've pretty much always been a practicing Mormon, but I've also always been kind of atypical. For most of my life, I have felt that that I was always kind of on the fringes. I love and believe the vast majority of my Church's teachings, including (maybe even especially) the ones that set us apart from traditional Christianity, but I am much, much, much more liberal in my worldview than practically every Mormon I know -- and I probably know more than a thousand.
It's been hard for me to find a place in the Church where I was comfortable, but within the last few years, I have finally come to understand that I can actually trust what the Spirit teaches me, and if some of the things I believe don't jive with what the rest of my faith community believes, that's just fine. So I'd have to say that I am where I am now because I stopped trying to fit into the mold and embraced the personal revelations that I believe God has given me. I may be wrong about some things, but I'm open to whatever He may choose to teach me in the future, and my heart is at peace in knowing that He's just fine with how I see things right now.

yes it is the inner aspect, the inner dimension.
just as a human has an outer revealed aspect (the physical body) and an inner concealed dimension (the non-physical soul) so too does the Torah. it is the inner dimension of the Torah.

It is the most fascinating aspect of the Torah containing as it does spiritual truths that coincide with what Jesus tried to communicate about God and our relationship to Him. Unfortunately, it takes a great deal of maturity and evolved spiritual understanding to recognize it.
