Sowing the Seeds of Creation

The Zohar (brilliant, blinding light) is a mystical commentary on the Torah through the lens of the sephirot, the emanations of God represented by ten circles of qualities or relationship to God. (sometimes only the lower seven.) 

How did this world come into existence? Both the "Big Bang" theorists, and the medieval mystics think it began with a blinding explosion. In this gentler rendition, the imaginings of plants in God's mind are being sown into our material world, where they blossom behind the sower..."for God's glory." Look carefully, and you will see she is transparent.
