At about a third from the top of page – (line begins: "kuli...”) For text, click: Here.

We have looked at 'non-presence' in malchut, in contrast to the world of briah (which is like the world of thought or the aquatic realm).

So is the principle of briah presnce or non-presence? In briah even though there are no 'stand alone' entities, the principle is 'presence'.


So briah has the element of novelty/hischadshut. There is no similarity to the state that preceded it.


So bracha/blessing brings down from the concealed world into the revealed world.

It does not 'create a new thing'. It reveals that which is already there. There has great significance – the point is not just that now it is revealed, but rather that it came out of concealment, which lends it a profound reality.

Speech has vitality from the earlier state of 'thought'.

So in this way the revealed level has a truth quality beyond, 'oh yeah, it is here and can stand'.
