Qabalistic View of General Evolution
A Qabalistic view of the Divine principles of Emanation
The Evolutionary Process of Emanation, like all other developments of Natural Philosophy, follows a pattern, referred to esoterically, as 'the Sephirotic Tree', and is based on the law that, all Realms, Planes, Levels, Organisms, Elementals, Entities, or other situations of reality, are modelled on Divine principles.
'The Sephirotic Tree' is a schematic tool for the demonstration of the set of prime laws of existence, and their philosophical arrangements in the governance, of the Holiest of attributes.
(Schematic tools such as 'The Sephirotic Tree', may also be applied to, and used for, the modelling of less divine principles, of any physical, meta-physical or philosophical study.)
In the very Beginning:
'A dimensionless Pythagorean point occurs at the core of the un-manifested Euclidean vastness of Infinities.
A point without width, depth, height, weight or mass, a point without dimension of any form imaginable, or unimaginable. Such a point, - the Primordial Point - must in truth comprise Absolute Nothingness'.
We shall name this state Ny) - AYN:
In Qabala, the transcendent Absolute Entity is called: AYN - Ny) .
AYN - Ny) means: - No-Thingness, - Beyond Existence, and - Separate from all else.
Ayn - is the Absolute Nothingness.
Ayn is neither still, nor is it in motion. Ayn is not above nor is it below, for Ayn is nothing, and thus is nowhere.
Ayn is soundless though it is not silence. Ayn is zero but it is not void, for out of the no-thingness of Ayn, comes the one of Ayn Soph, (Pwooaas Ny)).
Ayn Soph (Pwooaas Ny)), means The Endless.
The Absolute Nothingness of Ayn's zero, is complimented by the Absolute All of Ayn Soph's one.
The Transcendent Absolute Entity - AYN - (Ny) ), and the Immanent Absolute Entity - Ayn Soph - (Pwooaas Ny)), simultaneously and respectively, are Nothing and All.
The Absolute Entity has no other attributes, than the nomenclatures:- AYN - (Ny) ), and Ayn Soph - (Pwooaas Ny)).
Thus the Absolute Entity is singularly, just the Absolute Entity, no more, no less, and therefor nothing else compares to it.
Tradition states that in order to understand itself, the Absolute Entity must first Will to visualize itself.
By that same tradition the Will of the Absolute Entity is symbolized as Ayn Soph Aur -
(rw) Pwooaas Ny)), the Endless Light of Will, and that light which emanates from Nowhere and Everywhere, shines omnisciently, out of the heart of the combined Realms of the Transcendent Absolute Entity - AYN - (Ny) ), and the Immanent Absolute Entity - Ayn Soph - (Pwooaas Ny)).
The Absolute Entity knowing ALL, thus Wills the first Separation, in order that it might behold itself.
Again by that same tradition, we are told that this first Separation is accomplished by a contraction within 'the Absolute All of Ayn Soph' where a place is formed, in which the manifested Existence might thus be mirrored.
This voided place is finite, and thus limited in relation to 'the Absolute All of Ayn Soph which contains it.

This voided place is finite, and thus limited in relation to 'the Absolute All of Ayn Soph which contains it.
In Qabala, this act of contraction is known variously as, (zyz x / xzyz), the Zig-Zag fork-lightening of Zimzum, brings about the Void of Unmanifested Existence even though it is , by tradition, the size of a dimensionless point in the midst of the Absolute Entity.
Unmanifested Existence is the place of Emptiness.
It is quite different from No-thingness because, although it is negative like the empty space inside a hollow ball, it is in fact 'an entity'.
Such a condition must exist so that Positive Existence may come into being within it.
AYN SOPH AUR:
The Divine Light of Infinite Spectrum, visible though as yet unseen:
The Divine Will of irresistible force, capable of displacing the immovable:
AYN SOPH AUR, the Imperative Will of AYN SOPH, surges throughout AYN.
As already stated - by tradition, the Will of the Absolute Entity that surrounds the voided space, began to radiate Ayn Soph Aur - (rw) Pwooaas Ny)) the Endless Light of Will, into the
Void of Unmanifested Existence.
This brings into focus three factors which themselves are contained within the Void.
Qabalists sometimes regarded as original acts of Mercy and Severity operating under the direct eye of the Absolute.
Whilst these three Occult (hidden), Splendours lie outside both Manifested and Unmanifested Existence, they profoundly effect the nature of the Cosmos, and the result of their interaction, as it came into being out of the Will of AYN SOPH.
When the 'Will of the Absolute Entity' - ( Kav ), begins penetrating the periphery of the Void, the 'event of becoming', occurs.
Out of that first penetration through the frontier between AYN SOPH and the Void, comes the separation of Existence from the Absolute. This is because by generating Positive Existence, AYN SOPH was revealed, hidden beneath the manifestation.
Thus, AYN SOPH is sometimes called the Concealed of the Concealed.
The first manifestation to occur on breaching the periphery of Void, is an Entity named in Hebrew, Keter (rtk), the Prime Crown. Other titles include, the Concealed of the Concealed, the White Head, and the Crown of all Crowns. the Will of the Absolute Entity
Most Qabalists though, knew it by a name received by Moses from out of the burning bush :

AYN SOPH AUR:

The Divine Will of irresistible force, capable of displacing the immovable:
AYN SOPH AUR, the Imperative Will of AYN SOPH, surges throughout AYN.
Yet, that the Omnipotent Will of AYN SOPH AUR, should shine throughout AYN SOPH, and the wondrous knowledge of those events should be contained within AYN, may in itself, not suffice.
For within AYN SOPH, the Absolute All is Cosmic unconsciousness, in a divine state of marvellous Serenity! Yet by the very nature of the surge of AYN SOPH AUR throughout AYN, here is a Reality verging on uncontrollable turbulence, lacking an understanding from which there might emerge self awareness! Thus in order that these events, and the knowledge thereof, be finally balanced, AYN SOPH AUR, must Will that the Almighty, Absolute ALL, be truly understood.
" If by the surging Imperative Will of AYN SOPH, some cataclysmic rupture in the continuum of its structures occurs, and Ayn-Soph is forced to withdraw from a part of the vessel AYN and into itself; And if by doing so, some great Chasm like blister or erstwhile benign appendage comes into being; not a Void (not an abhorrent Void!), but perhaps a vessel of emptiness much as Ayn originally was. A zero actuality, yet of finite nothingness; no void vessel this, nor yet total emptiness; but a place suitable perhaps, for some impending Emanation;
Then knowledge of such a cataclysmic event would once more flow into AYN, most particularly that part of AYN where the event occurred, further straining the very structures of Ayn-Soph. With this new knowledge would flow the how and why of such an event, along with its consequences, and the opportunistic possibilities and philosophies underpinning it, simultaneously with the knowledge of the Imperative Will of AYN SOPH, and its search for understanding and self awareness.

Void of Unmanifested Existence.
This brings into focus three factors which themselves are contained within the Void.
- the Will of the Absolute Entity - (the cause without cause)
- the act of allowing it so to happen ( the first Emanated cause )
- the Restriction to limit and contain the event. ( the first Emanated effect )
Qabalists sometimes regarded as original acts of Mercy and Severity operating under the direct eye of the Absolute.
Whilst these three Occult (hidden), Splendours lie outside both Manifested and Unmanifested Existence, they profoundly effect the nature of the Cosmos, and the result of their interaction, as it came into being out of the Will of AYN SOPH.

Out of that first penetration through the frontier between AYN SOPH and the Void, comes the separation of Existence from the Absolute. This is because by generating Positive Existence, AYN SOPH was revealed, hidden beneath the manifestation.
Thus, AYN SOPH is sometimes called the Concealed of the Concealed.
The first manifestation to occur on breaching the periphery of Void, is an Entity named in Hebrew, Keter (rtk), the Prime Crown. Other titles include, the Concealed of the Concealed, the White Head, and the Crown of all Crowns. the Will of the Absolute Entity
Most Qabalists though, knew it by a name received by Moses from out of the burning bush :
" hyh) r # ) hyh) " - " ahyah asher ahyah " - " I am! That I am! "
The first Light, that first Splendour, the prime Sefirah - (hryps), {sing.}, as manifested by the Divinity, is the seed of all that was, is, and ever shall be. It is the Light from which all other Lights, ie., all the Sefirot - (hwryps), {plur.}, emanate.
It contains. at the threshold between the absolute and relative Universes, all the Cosmic Realms, in total equilibrium.
Until the Will of AYN SOPH AUR penetrates into the Void and emanates manifestation, the Prime Crown is an unrealized possibility of all things that could come.
The Will of the Absolute Entity thus shines forth into the Void, and germinates the seed of Positive Existence, causing it to take root and to grow into the trunk, branch and fruit of a Divine Tree, and by so doing, acts as intermediary between all the Cosmic Realms and the Absolute Entity.
Ayn Soph Aur manifests into the Void, as the 'Line of Light' - (Keter thro Malkhut)
Figure 2.
Thus, under the influence of the Supernal Triad and its Three Occult Splendours,
The first sephirah, 'Keter - the Crown' - (r tk) , - the Seed of contained potential
of an immanent Evolutionary process, become Manifest.

As previously shown, contained within the Void of Unmanifested Existence are three hidden, (Occult) Splendours.
The three Zahzahot, as the Occult (hidden) roots of what eventually becomes the first of several sets of major laws, which govern Existence, generate the processes of expansion and contraction, overseen by a greater Will.
Qabalists sometimes regarded as original acts of Mercy and Severity operating under the direct eye of the Absolute.

Since our consciousness is based solely upon the relationship of quantities to an absolute cause, we can only conceive of cause in respect to quantity. Thus, when resistance (ie., quantity) opposes activity (ie., pure quality), the reality of Phenomena occurs.
The perfect phenomenon is one for which resistance and activity are in harmony ie., resistance balances its activity. A phenomenon cannot be indefinite because , as the cause of its own existence, it possesses precisely that which is definite, ( ie., quantity), and is limited only in respect of time and mass.
Iteratively, if a causal phenomenon continues to be opposed, but however, by a resistance greater than that previously experienced, (assuming, for the sake of example, a process of dissipation (involution)), then resistance or inertia, increases in opposition to activity, and in turn, activity is assumed to decrease. The resultant resistance provokes further Phenomena and so on, until a new state of harmony is achieved.
Thus by the opposition of quantity to indefinite quality, when the size of such quantity is, albeit momentarily, consistently equal to the quality which gave birth to it, then an 'eternal creation' comes into being. Thus phenomena, becomes the result of the complementation, of an active, indefinite, 'causal absolute', with a passive, (quantitative), and 'definite result'. Thus each moment of Cosmic harmony gives rise to an active and a passive cause, in truth its own compliment. The 'complementation, of these two poles must therefor have as its effect, a new causal relationship, ie., the cause of the next effect.
Generic selection thus consists of a choice by the first cause (activity) in respect of a corresponding resistance
figure 4
Figure 4, more closely represents a basic electrical circuit which produces as its phenomenon, an advanced mathematical function - differentiation. To those finding the example too advanced, please do not be concerned, whilst those with a knowledge sufficient to the task, should endeavour to relate the forgoing explanations to this new example.
The irreducible Entity, thus possessed of a double nature which is simultaneously, both passive and active, constrained to manifest itself, and containing all the occult knowledge of numbers, when truly understood; leads naturally and easily to the dissociation or disengagement of Numbers.
