This is the Tree of Life as described in the system of Holy Qabalah. The spheres are called Sephiroth or Sefirot. They each have a given attribute.
Each of these spheres exists in four worlds. They are as follows.
- World of Emanation (Hebrew: אֲצִילוּת, Atzilut): In this level the light of the Ein Sof radiates and is united with its source. Divine Chochmah, the limitless flash of wisdom beyond grasp, predominates.
- World of Creation (Hebrew: בְּרִיאָה or alternatively[16] בְּרִיָּה, Beri'ah): In this level, is the first creation ex nihilo, where the souls and angels have self-awareness, but without form. Divine Binah, the intellectual understanding, predominates.
- World of Formation (Hebrew: יְצִירָה, Yetzirah): On this level, creation is related to form. The Divine emotional sefirot of Chesed to Yesod predominate.
- World of Action (Hebrew: עֲשִׂיָּה, Assiah): On this level creation is relegated to its physical aspect, the only physical realm and the lowest World, this realm with all its creatures. The Divine Kingship of Malchut predominates, the purpose of Creation.
This information comes from the Wikipedia page on the Sefirot.
In terms of this blog, it was created primarily to discuss occurrences on the physical and astral planes (world of action and world of formation.) It came to be a place for discussion of the mental/intellectual plane (world of creation) and the other discussions no longer had a place. To those interested in discussing only the metaphysical aspects of existence, communication with the spirits of the departed seems trite, messy, and perhaps even "insane", a manifestation of a troubled mind which is not yet "mature" enough to rid itself of such trivialities.
That there is no place in this world for a person such as myself is not news. However, I had hoped to inspire others to take a more holistic approach. Each of the four worlds is important.
I am in physical pain of varying degrees at all times. This to me is less distressing than the emotional pain I have experienced during this lifetime.
I know I'm not done yet. But I would like to be.
Are my experiences really worth less than those of the more "enlightened?"
I suppose they are.
I have nothing to teach, nothing to offer. Why am I still here?
