He
contracted His light to bring out the element of din/judgement.
And
what is this contrction/tzimtzum? The infinite light (ohr ein sof)
is rooted in the essence. And it is obvious that this is its nature.
All things exist, not by virtue of their own existence, and making
themselves, but rather there is a Godly truth that makes each thing
and gives it a place to be. This is what is seen in light.
The
contraction is that the presence of the essence is being concealed,
and what the light is representing becomes the focus of attention.
And this allows for the further development of things.
When
you have essence you have one reality, but when essence does not
express itself, then many places and qualities can be differentiated
– this is the element of din/judgement, where things have their
place and limit.
We
can observe an entire panorama at a glance – we see it not as a
presence, but rather from the perspective of its Source. We see it
in ohr/light. We see it from a reality perspective. And now empty
space is not empty, but rather filled with the content that the
Source is giving it.
It
is the contraction/tzimtzum that brings about the revelation of space
and all that it contains.
