172 – 5th line of the second paragraph of the page
(line
starts, 'shelifnay...') For text, see picture below.
Essential form is not
to say there is a form in essence, rather that 'If essence wanted to
show itself, it would be in this form.
'Shem' is the name as
he is referred to. Ohr is the person as he appears. So how can name
and light be one? Name seems arbitrary. But that's not true. Take
ownership – in a country there is a level of convention - social
contract, but that is vastly different from ownership according to
Torah. Here ownership is protected by Him.
No other creature has
ownership except the human being. Hashem is the ultimate owner of
the world, not only in the sense that He made it, but it exists
because He makes it, and he assigns ownership.
A human being has
true ownership. This is like a name. You have a true name. The
baby is given a name. It is not a random signifier. It is a
declaration of the presence of this human being. It is not just a
reference point.
