Questions for today:
As we develop our love for the Creator by recognizing the incredible focus expressed by the Creator in creating us, where do we see a parallel between the Torah’s chain of expression, and the worlds chain of actualization?
We spoke about how the Torah acts as the filter giving G-dliness its body and giving it the limited definition to create the worlds.
It is fascinating to see that the process of creation parallels the different levels and layers that make up the Torah.
The Torah has a layer with deep, intellectual concepts within the Talmud. Below the Talmud, there is the Mishna. Similar to emotion which either likes or dislikes something, the Mishnah states laws, kosher or not, black or white.
When each world is created, it starts from the ‘Holy of Holies’, a seminal intellectual concept that contains all the ideology and the life of the world within it.
Then, creation of each world undergoes a long intellectual, then emotional process, culminating in malchus, kingship, which could also be called speech.
Speech is what takes everything inside and makes it tangible. Thus ‘speech’ will create all of the defined components within any world, completing the creation process of that world/level/layer.
Then, the level of tangible speech in one world becomes the Holy of Holies, the supernal intellect, for the creation of the world below it. Eg. a defined thought becomes the seminal root for a world of emotion.
This process repeats with the creation of each, ever lower, world.
159 Tanya Iyar 29 ~ m186b Sivan 2b
Tanya book 1, ch 52 Pt 3
As the Torah descends through the various worlds, it "masquerades" G-dliness to form that world.
Each world goes through a full process of creation.
Creation begins in the holy-of-holies as a sublime intellectual spark, and extends through an intellectual process and then through an emotional process, culminating with kingship, speech, that makes everything tangible.
This "kingship"/speech formulates all of the components of that world, which then becomes the sublime intellect, the holy-of-holies, of the next, lower, world.
