Heyas,
I've been away a bit, and will return to being away quite soon.
In the meantime, i have been reading back some of my personal musings, and i
kinda liked one.
So feel free to tear apart these musings, cos at the moment i am to busy to
do enough research for this one.
here goes :
Musings
The four worlds are in most renderings in hermetic kabbalah four identical
worlds.
They are just repetitions of what came before on a denser scale.
This bothers me.
Repetition seems like a sure fire way to end up in stagnation.
There are a myriad of different Tree's of Life out there, with different
forms, attributes, a big mess.
A big mess is very good for inducing confusion.
Confusion is good, it can be a road towards change.
(see me adding my bit of confusion, right here :P)
The most authoritive text on the tree of life is the sefer yetzirah.

I have never come across a rendering in which the four worlds are
expressed as identical. Can you provide a link to at least one, if
not more?
> They are just repetitions of what came before on a denser scale.
If the scale is denser, then it is not identical. Perhaps you prefer
the distinction to be depicted in a less subtle manner.

Close. 3 mother letters, 7 double letters, and 12 simple or elemental
letters.

We see the universe from our viewpoint in every world.

That you would type this is strange. The person who would have been my
older brother was stillborn, there was none to gift him with 70 years
though.

It was sparked by the mentioning of david.
That part of the zohar just kinda touched me.

Yes they did. Mika asked a cogent question which I'll repeat here.
You said:

How can one world be denser than another world if they're identical? If
they're identical, that implies that they're exactly the same in every
respect, including density.
You say one thing in your first musing, and then contradict yourself in
the very next sentence. In just two sentences you revealed that you're
still spouting the same old poorly-digested liquid mess.

That's always been the problem with your "personal musings" - there
isn't any visible content.
Here's but one example out of many:
"For Atziluth we look at the actual properties of our solar system ...
In my reckoning, humanity, as a species, is in incarnate form
restricted to reaching the consciousness represented by chesed. So,
that makes planet earth Chesed."
See what I mean? This isn't "content" - it's merely random and
rambling gibberish, picking random thoughts out of your ass to
"justify" your random attributions. If I didn't know you better, I'd
find it hard to believe that you'd wasted so much time on this tripe
already.
