Nugget #86 – First Triad: Communication


This Sefirah is called Binah.  You may recall that Binah is associated with understanding.  This is where wisdom from Chochmah (YHVH) becomes expressed, such as verbally and pictorially.  The wisdom can be communicated and thus applicable. 

But we have to ask why it is communicable?  It is because at this point we become more and more separated (individualized).  Elohim is a plural word and it indicates a plurality is taking place that permits us to have unique perspectives and as such collectively we have complete understanding, not individually.  The catalyst that brings together the individuals into a collectively, is communication.

Communications also assumes there is a common means of connecting to each other.  Of course we are not speaking of just writing and pictures here.  We are also speaking of soul communication with each other.  How is that carried out?  Simply put, “We are created in His [Elohim’s] image” (Genesis 1:26).  We are all elohims and as such we contain pieces of Elohim’s attributes within each of us.  This gives us all the common points of connection with each other and the Creator as well (see Nuggets #20).

Try to grasp that our essence is from Elohim and is Elohim.
