General Overview of Creation

General Overview of Creation. Lesson 1

Today we will try to speak about the structure of reality starting from beginning, which is actually the whole topic of the wisdom of Kabbalah. This ancient wisdom comes to us from people who have attained this spiritual nature through attributes, tools and methods that they have developed. What they attained, what they felt, what they understood of the structure of reality in its depth, this is what they convey to us...

General Overview of Creation. Lesson 2

In the Wisdom of Kabbalah, when we talk about the situations of the creature, we need some measurements, numbers and discernments to measure the situations, write them down and, as in any other science, convey them to another in their true form so that another will be able to take these discernments and, according to them, imagine the exact situation that we want to convey. So there are a few signs that describe the states of the creature. Without knowing how to register them, how to understand them it is impossible to talk about the evolution of the creature.

General Overview of Creation. Lesson 5

We have learned how the Thought of Creation, to do good to His creations, operates in the Kli that was created and brings it to receive light in order to bestow in every way, everything possible, except the stony heart, which is called Lev HaEven. Now we will learn for what the system exists...

General Overview of Creation. Lesson 6

Until now, we have talked about the Upper Worlds and how they emanated from the Thought of Creation to do good to His creations. Here in the drawing, schematically, we have some combination of both worlds, the spiritual and the corporeal. We learned in the previous lessons how from the Thought of Creation the situation of Malchut—the foundation of the future creature—was made...
