Page 59 [of the pamphlet] 6th line of the page – line starts: 'hanishar'. (P45 in the book)

We are talking about the tzimtzum/contraction.

We are deciphering what occurs during the process... It is 2 steps. Firstly it is a removal/siluk of the infinite light – the concept that from Godliness could come a world...

Godliness per se is infinite, and world is all about finitude and definition.

This is indicative of how the world percieves faculties and how chassidus sees them.

The world sees them as reactive to experiences – or the result of training... the way the physical reality is reflected in your mind.


The chassidus see them as soul expressions, and not the result of experiences in the world. The soul seeks a way to function and express itself in the world.

The tzimtzum contracts the soul perception so that the soul can bring an expression or action that is appropriate for world.

The 2nd tzimtzum is a reduction of the light. This reduction is to such an extent that there is no trace of the infinity.

Yet there is an imprint of the infinity that remains in inner mind, in the chochmah, in the inspiration of the human being.
