Key to Creation

The Cabala is an intricate description of how out of nothing creation arose; without stooping to dogma or doctrine the Cabala concisely uses metaphor, geometry and exact numbers to draw a portrait of creation. The first form in creation is the Name of God YHVH which when arranged vertically takes on the form of a human stick figure. The human form derived from the YHVH existed in potential prior to creation and when revealed was called Adom Kadmin/First Human.

The way this primordial form became implanted within the OreAinSof/LightWithoutEnd is explained by the Midrash-Book of Metaphor which tells how pebbles fell from the Kesay HaKoved/Seat of Honor which hovers above creation and others say that God threw in the pebbles while reposing up the throne—ten pebbles, all in all. Something never really arises out of nothing since God fills all possibilities instead from God’s perspective creation is nothing (creation is like nothing compared to God) that came out of something—God.

The Zohar-Book of Secret calls these pebbles Sefirot/Luminaries. Arranged in the form of three triangles corresponding to the two hemispheres of the brain and the third eye; the two arms and the torso; the two legs and the sex, the Ten Sefirot distributed along three pillars is the basis of our creation. The Ten Sefirot is the prototype to our solar system of a sun and nine planets, pattern of our world in the seven earth masses and three oceans reflected in the animal and human body which like the earth are two thirds water.


The tenth sefira corresponds to the circle—the lips of woman from where speech emanates and is portrayed in our solar system as the most outer planet Pluto, the mouth of the solar system with her three tiny moons corresponding to the lips, the teeth and the tongue which produce speech out to the universe. The YHVH, a Name spoken into creation from the Creator conductor of creation, entered into the brain of Adom Kadmin/First Human (our solar system) becoming the first manifestation of YHVH, even predating spiritual the worlds—awakened consciousness occurred. A light described by the Cabala coming from the forehead of this primordial human being (the sun) caused the OreAinSof/LightWithoutEnd to break giving space for the creation to happen.

The next manifestation after Adom Kadmin/First Human as recorded by the cabalists is the world of Akudim/Lines—the lines of light from the OreAinSof/LightWithoutEnd that rushed away from the form of the first human leaving the ten orbs; these lines were the result of the broken light moving away from this primordial human form who stretched and moved-nine luminaries rotating around the point of light where the YHVH awakened consciousness within the form. The lines of light from the world of Akudim each imbued with the form of the human derived from the YHVH Name of God moved until commanded to stop thus creating the world of Nikudim/Dots or as we know them to be stars at the end of a tether of light.


The directive to end the world of Akudim/Lines and begin the world of Nikudim/Dots happened from the word Di/Enough and thus creation came to know the Creator by the Name Shadi as the One who said: Enough. The gematria of Shadi is the 314 the first three numbers of pi explaining why this unending number is found everywhere throughout creation bridging the gap between male and female—the line and the curve—creating the third and final world of Brudim/Separation—color by which the creation could be measured as stated in the beginning of the Zohar-Book of Secret.

In reaction to the sudden stop which created the world of Nikudim/Dots, the light rebounded as if hitting a mirror causing an amplification of energy and a declination in the speed of light. Prior to the world of Brudim/Separation the light was traveling faster than the speed of light then suddenly corralled by God’s will not to extend creation endlessly gave both time and space dimension and confine. The Zohar-Book of Secret states: at first light had no color and only took on color later for the means of measurement; color indicates resistance and boundary—the speed of light, Einstein’s constant.

Our world of ten orbs created through the vibratory repercussions of color and sound exists in the place from where the light first broke freeing nine pebbles to rotate around a beacon of light—YHVH, soul of creation implanted within the sun. The world produced from the light and sound is called the Olam HaTikun/World of Fixing. The World of Tikun is the whole of the solar system where the shafts of star-light that animate the planets are remnants to the boundless illumination that broke into stars allowing the planets to float away into orbits. Therefore the starlight which surrounds us has always been here and has never left—since it was the star which moved and not the light.

In our solar system the earth is known by her spiritual name Tavel the place of judgment because here freedom of choice reigns. According to our choices, so goes the universe. For 6000 years human choice has defied the Creator largely because the people were not told the truth. People were taught to worship things, the human being became shackled to the things and darkness descended upon the earth. People were taught to bow to idols and to do opposite the Will of God. And God was silent.

The Midrash-Book of Metaphor teaches God played with creation for 2000 years before creating; the scientists claim that the stars “blinked on” 200 million years after the Big Bang. Embedded within creation are endless clues to the meaning of creation implanted in the numbers within cycles. If the 365 days of the year are squared and multiplied by the 2000 years that God played with creation before creating we arrive at the number 266,450,000—the time it took the light to achieve space traveling at the speed of infinity.

The number 26645 is itself a simple statement and answer to the ancient question why God created time then? The number 26 is the value directly associated with the YHVH through simple gematria and 45 is the number of Adom/Human. The number six in between God and human, the first perfect number, is considered in the Zohar-Book of Secret as the letter indicative of truth is also indicative of the Six Days of Creation which are prototype to the six thousand years of the Hebrew calendar of which we stand at 5769.

In four years when the calendar reaches 5772, the number reflecting the relationship between God and human at its highest level, the 5000 year old Mayan calendar, which tracks according to the 666 in Hebrew calendar, ends; where these numbers reflect the stages in human development 72, is the most sublime. The four inner numbers are: 45-human, 52-animal, 63-essential animal and 72-essential human. The relationship between the number 72 and the number 666 is indicative of the merging of sexual energy (666 added together equal 18/Chai/Life) at their highest level.

In the year 2012 the Mayan calendar ends and there are but 228 years left in the Hebrew calendar; one might think, perhaps the number 228 is relevant—it is the gematria to the word Cherch/Fissures. This unusual word is used in Shir HaShirim/Song of Songs penned by Shlomo who built the First Temple is Yerushaliam. In his sonnet to God Shlomo prophecies about the final exile when God will remember the Jewish People as being a powerful ram with young beautiful offspring and God will from behind the wall of creation peek through the windows and the Cherechim—a second word for windows that are more like fissures in a wall.

The cabalists later explain the difference between Chalon/Windows and Cherch/Fissure. The window is the great people men and women who make us proud to be part of the human race and the Cherchim/Fissures are those far from God, therefore bitter and destitute, inflicted with pain from the road until they actually despise their own lives. It is through the broken heart that God enters in and is able, from behind the wall that separates creation from the endless light for God, to peek; it is through that fissure made of pain and compassion that the light of God illuminates the world and secures the future.

As the systems of the world shake and the pain of poverty pervades all parts of the world the human being stands upon the threshold of a new era. A window of opportunity is opening and will remain so for 228 years to come, but now is the time to make the world right; it is the heart and not the brain that will bridge the past with the future because in 228 years will begin the 1000 years of peace known as the 1000 Years of Woman. The Cabala states: no mind can comprehend God because God is grasped only by the heart. Though creation is logical, the Creator is far beyond logic.

The emotions are more powerful and adamant than the brain which is always changing his mind looking at things from different perspectives, it is why life is on the outer seven worlds and not on all ten orbs as the Midrash-Book of Metaphor proclaims because emotions are real while thoughts are merely a conduit from the heavens to the earth. The 288 sparks which fell into this world from the previous world, Mars, were made from the six emotions plus the culmination of emotions—speech. We are on the brink of that seventh day.

The year 2012 represents the moment when God will peek at the human being and the universe which was given into our hands. It will be Judgment Day because we will all be seen for who we are, then for 228 years, a window of time, when the barrier which separates God and man can be bridged not by religion or authority, but by the contrite heart of the truly humbled. It is said in the Midrash-Book of Metaphor the greatest punishment from the result of judgment is embarrassment, but it is precisely the embarrassment which leads us to change our ways and take a different path in life. Bush in Hebrew means embarrassment.

The clarity by which creation reflects the imminent future is surprising, but this is only the tip of the truth about creation—the more we look the more can be seen. From the formula 26645 can be deduced a new constant which correlates to the cabalistic concept of Ore Sovev Kol Almin/Light Surrounding All Worlds which energies the inner light known as Ore Mamali Kol Almin/Light Filling All Worlds.

These two confines of creation are determined by two different speeds of light each reaching their position at precisely the same time—266,450,000 on the first day of the month of Tishre. The letters of the word Bereshith/In the Beginning, the first word of the Torah can be rearranged to read, the first day of Tishre as explained by the Ari, father of the Cabala five hundred years ago.
