Leo Shaya
The Universal Meaning of the Kabbalah1973
All creation is an illusory projection of the transcendental aspects of God in the mirror of its immanence….Illusion is not, nor can it be, in itself, a mere nothing. The illusion is a ‘blend’ of the real and the ephemeral, or -dictated with kabbalistic terminology – of ‘light’ and ‘darkness’.
