Psalms; psalm 81, 826:
" You are gods, you are all children of the Most High..."
According to the sephirothic mysticism every
universe of conscience is the extension of the first sephiroth, Kether,
which pours out its own vital essence to the lower levels, until Malkuth is created, which is the "earthly exile" of the spiritual conscience. Nevertheless,
the materialized conscience preserves part of the primitive sensitiveness. So
much that gets the impulse to go back to the first emanation, Kether,
and re-join its own main identity.
You can see in the diagram shown
a fluid indication of the spheres 10 sensitive contained in the Sephirothic
Tree. All the same, from an esoteric point of view the most interesting is the
Da’ath, the 11 sephiroth, invisible in the physical features relative to the
Mutation, which we’ll deal with separately, after having exhausted all the necessary
preambles. |
