*Correction: (thats why in phase 1,2 and 3 there is not already a creature, only in phase 4 (the Malchut) because there an independent desire is forming).
I have a question about something that seems a bit contradictory to me: if there is None Else Besides Him, how then can we be independent from Him?
There is said that we can only speak about a creature, if it’s really independent from the Creator (thats why in phase 1 and 2 there is not already a creature, only in phase 3 (the Malchut) because there an independent desire is forming.)
But this seems completely contradictory to the fact that there is nothing else than the Creator and that it’s the Creator that is operating in us, giving us thoughts etc. How then are we independent if everything that is done in us is done by the Creator? Are we really independent or do we just have the illusionary sensation of being independent ?
