The context is that
we have been saying that creations are created by the union of
chochmah and bina (nothing and something). We said that this is
called a spiritual union – like that of master and student. The
master allows the student to understand, based on the student's own
mind... so there is no new creation.
But angels are
spiritual and full creations that have a knowledge of Godliness. Yet
they are connected to that which is above them.
Each creature below
how its source above.
The source above is
what gives the creature real existence down below. If this root
light was to show itself in full force on the creature below it would
be nullified and loose its presence altogether.
There is a spiritual
power in everything. In the human being, there is a spiritual
presence that gives it life. He has sechel/mind which allows him to
perceive beyond the physical level.
And since the soul is
exposed in the body, why does it not ovewhelm it? This is because
the soul touches the brain and does not overwhelm it.
And the body is able
to live up to a level that is respectable to the soul that is imbued
in it.
But if the soul was
to reveal itself on the body in full glory, then he would lose his
physical presence.
