Rooted in the Tzimtzum<\/em> <\/strong>i.e., behind God\u2019s having allowed the Tzimtzum<\/em> to occur when it needn\u2019t have and when nothing whatsoever needed to be created, is the principle that everything <\/strong>in the created world would follow a natural course until the end. That\u2019s to say, that <\/strong>human and situational flaws would exist<\/strong> in the course of things but that in the end — when God’s Yichud<\/em> will be <\/strong>revealed and thus be seen for what it is — everything would return to its ultimate perfection <\/strong>as it had been before the Tzimtzum<\/em> was allowed to occur.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>It was accordingly established that there\u2019d ultimately be a realm of existence that would be based on, <\/strong>i.e., that the world would function according to the principle of, the mystical implications of right and wrong, and of<\/strong> thesis and antithesis<\/strong>, which would be makeup of the trace environment. That\u2019s to say that the Sephirot<\/em> would unfold on all their levels and with all that they\u2019re to generate <\/strong>in that environment in order to bestow<\/strong> goodness <\/strong>in the <\/strong>end, while a<\/strong> second, opposite realm was to be brought into being that would allow for <\/strong>the flaws <\/strong>referred to above, and would be termed \u201cthe other <\/strong>(i.e., opposite) side\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The <\/strong>ultimate goal <\/strong>though is that the power to bestow goodness would<\/strong> hold sway, to the point where each flaw would return to a state of repair, and God’s actual Yichud<\/em> would become realized<\/strong>, all thanks to the entrance of the line which allows for that.<\/p>\n
