Page 63 [of the pamphlet] At 3rd to last line of the page – line starts: 'de-me-achar'. (P49 in the book)

We discussed the highest of the 3 levels of light/ohr.

We pointed out that on the one hand there is the principle of hisna-asut/aloofnesss – an essential elevation – where He is First and aloof.

The word essential is in a Godly realm. In the world things are created and have form and function.

By contrast He is the first Being. And from Him comes everything else.

We are looking at light/ohrot, which are expressions, rather than Him, Himself.

The light is an unsolicited will to create.


From this came the 10 sphirot.


'Creation' means something finite and defined, and thus you have 10 hidden sphirot. The 10 are the origin of bringing things into a limited arena.

Initially they are contained within Him Himself in a state of essential aloofness.

So although there were contractions and the creation of the world, it remains Godly, since it was conceptualized within Him.

The initial lead into this was: how can light be dressed in vessels?! Light is fully representative of source and vessels are functional and defined – so how do they unite?! This was the origin of our discussion. And so we come to say that within the purity of light is a recognition of measure and definition.

Like us: we are in the world and not in the world. The world represents a Godly will...

And the original projection is one of light, not of vessels. Not a vision of 'how this creation will stand on its own two feet'. He precedes created entities absolutely.
