For a great light cannot be termed the <\/strong>direct \u201ccause\u201d of one lone, minor created phenomenon since the latter would never emerge <\/strong>directly from the former. For, God formulated the tenet of <\/strong>things coming about in sequences. <\/strong><\/p>\n

For we find nothing that relates in any way to the other side on <\/strong>the higher levels. But something is revealed in Nikkudim<\/em> that does bear some relation to <\/strong>it, which is the rule of vessels. For there alone <\/strong>in Nikkudim<\/em> lies the general foundation consisting of the worlds of Atzilut<\/em>, Briah<\/em>, Yetzirah<\/em> and Assiyah<\/em> that extend <\/strong>downward to the material level and to the end of all existence <\/strong>including the other side.<\/strong><\/p>\n
