“Intended From Above” p: 170


AyinBase with R' Paltiel Wednesday 29 Tammuz 5772 

Page 170 – 1st line of the second paragraph of the page (line starts, 'vehadugmah...') For text, see link top right of the blog.

The mentor/mashpia, hides the light of the sechel/mind as an initial step. But an essential trace remains. This is the reality. A manifestation of a certain essential truth. It includes all the light that will be revealed. And this is how it is above, concerning the creation of the world.

In order to facilitate the revelation of light from the kav/line, which is an expression of the entire truth, but in bits and bytes... this is by means of the infinite light that is before the tzimzum/contraction, becoming hidden and retracted; and then repeating and returning into revelation – a trace or point that becomes the kav/line.

So even though the light goes through a contraction, it is retains the quality of kiruv/closeness. You cannot have light if something obstructs its flow. There must be a clear channel back to the source.

The ohr ein sof, wants to stay close, and this is the cause of the light after the contraction. This is key – it is intended from Above. Things are not fighting for their existence. They are created and maintained from above.

So the infinite is manifest through this 'local light'. This means that this lower light is retaining something of the essence of the original light.

The infinite aspect includes opposites. This is achieved by the kav/line, since it has this element of essence and infinity that it gets from the infinite light that preceded any contraction. So there is incorporation of opposites and details.
