Tzimtzum Bet and the Foundation of Creation

Tzimtzum Bet is the base of all creation. There was no creation, something that can sustain life, sustain consciousness, sustain any structure, if there was not a cooperation between Midat HaDin (the measurement of judgment), meaning limitation, with mercy. If the world would be strictly measured and judged by its merit, it would fall apart. There is a presence attributed to bina, called mercy, the womb, that sustains the world till it would be the time to give birth to it. The whole six thousand years of correction is like the womb holding, sustaining, until the structure collapses and something else is coming out, a new state being born.

Each generation, each spirit, has to go through being born into a close relationship with this mercy. Every time it needs to ascend, to attain a different degree, it needs to go through this womb. Something builds him, collapses, and then he is born into some independence, grows, and if he needs to go higher, he needs another measurement, another incorporation. Tzimtzum Aleph ends with inability to proceed, inability to define self, to define will, to allow the light of the Creator to extend. There is a property from the four aspects of direct light, bina, and when they come together, they must walk together, soul and spirit, cooperation only by accepting the definition of limitation, how to be, how to go about life.

First stage, bina lowers itself to malchut, like a mother lowering herself to a baby that cannot reach. Then standing on the same level, then manhood stands on her own legs. Right is the quality of bina, left is the will to receive of malchut joining bina. Then you cut the head of the left. At the end, a new formation of the middle line, combined right and left with domination of the right, a creature that can hold the light.

Every time you surrender to bina, mercy happens. Every surrender, with the right intention, reveals the presence of mercy. This is why surrender is so important, to realize the opportunity to reveal the presence of mercy.
