2TIL THE PATRIARCHS ARE AWAKENED AND SHE RECEIVES THE CROWNS OF THE TOP THREE SFIROT. Just as chambers are found in the lower Garden of Eden, corrected chambers can be found in the supernal GARDEN OF EDEN. These constructed chambers contain the secret of Faith, NAMELY MALCHUT. FOR MALCHUT, UPON HER COMPLETION, IS CALLED 'FAITH' AND EACH CHAMBER IS AN ASPECT OF MALCHUT. ¶ ## Bereshit B, chapter 8: Synopsis: This is the most hidden of all the chambers. All the others are connected to and crowned by this one. It is not a dwelling of souls, but a chamber to which they ascend on the way to their respective places. ¶ Most of the turbulence and turmoil of life occurs within the darkness that is created from an absence of spiritual Light. As we scan the letters that tell the secrets of

3that they were in me because of a certain imperfection of my nature. But this could not be the case with-the idea of a nature more perfect than myself; for to receive it from nothing was a thing manifestly impossible; and, because it is not less repugnant that the more perfect should be an effect of, and dependence on the less perfect, than that something should proceed from nothing, it was equally impossible that I could hold it from myself: accordingly, it but remained that it had been placed in me by a nature which was in reality more perfect than mine, and which even possessed within itself all the perfections of which I could form any idea; that is to say, in a single word, which was God. And to this I added that, since I knew some perfections which I did not possess, I was not the only being in existence (I will here

4<bos>Very different is the situation of those with long-distance vision, the far-seers, with all their ambiguities. There are very few of them, at most one per segment. Their telescopes are complex and refined. But they are in no way leaders. And what they see is entirely different from what the others see. They see a whole microsegmentarity, details of details, “a roller coaster of possibilities,” tiny movements that have not reached the edge, lines or vibrations that start to form long before there are outlined shapes, “segments that move by jerks.” A whole rhizome, a molecular segmentarity that does not permit itself to be overcoded by a signifier like the cutting machine, or even to be attributed to a given figure, a given aggregate or element. This second line is inseparable from the anonymous segmentation that produces it and challenges everything all the time, without goal or reason: “What happened?” The far-seers

5be cut off any more by the waters of the flood" (Beresheet 9:11). It is written, "The waters of the flood" and not "the waters of Noah." Moreover, it is written, "For this is," while it should have been 'For these are.' ¶ Yet we have learned that when there are many righteous men in the world, the Holy One, blessed be He, rejoices and takes pride in them. We have learned that when a righteous man is in the world and dwells in it, he brings peace to the world, WHICH IS MALCHUT, and the whole world is blessed for his sake. He brings peace to the retinue above. Whence do we know that? From the verse: "Or let him take hold of my strength, that he shall make peace with Me; peace shall he make with Me" (Yeshayah 27:5). Why is peace

6SHECHINAH smashes the power and strength of these appointed chiefs, breaks the power and strength of the enemies of Yisrael and takes revenge against them all. ¶ Therefore, "shall your camp be holy" (Ibid.). One must SEE that he does not become defiled through his sins and through transgressing the words of Torah. If he does so, they defile him, as it is written, "That you should be defiled (Heb. venitmetem) by them" (Vayikra 11:43). The word "Venitmetem" is written without Aleph, POINTING TO AN EXTRA MEASURE OF DEFILEMENT. We have learned that there are 248 limbs in the body and all become defiled when one becomes defiled, meaning as soon as he wants to become defiled, it IMMEDIATELY ACQUIRES DEFILEMENT. "Therefore shall your camp be

7will see it on another occasion, but for the moment I simply want to group together that different causes may have a common effect, namely that in the cases where the father loves the mother too much, he in fact finds himself in the position of being the one for whom the mother lays down the Law. ¶ Again there are cases, and this is the interest of adopting this perspective, it is to see how it can gather together different cases, cases in which the father, the subject will testify, has always remained a sort of very distant personage, whose messages only came through the intermediary of the mother. This is what the subject testifies to. ¶ But in reality the analysis shows that he is far from being absent, namely in particular that behind the tense relationship, often marked by all sorts of accusations, of complaints, of manifestations of aggression, as they say, concerning the mother, which constitute the text

8- in its turmoil and in its moments of tranquility. ¶ Later in the passage, verse 327, the author of the Zohar speaks of (do not pronounce this name) Lilit, the wicked female angel who posseses no humility or modesty. She is the mother of all nefarious people who abhor spirituality and propagate only evil in this world. These are the Mixed Multitude, and you will know them by their actions for they speak evil about all those who share and disseminate the wisdom and Light of this sacred book. Here, Lilit and her offspring are banished from this world. Their reign of terror is ended. The Light of Kabbalah is now free to flourish the world over bringing peace and harmony to civilization as quickly as the light of a bulb expels darkness from a room. Our world now mates with the Upper World, where the Light of Immortality shines upon us. Humility and modesty fill us so that we may

9_Infinite_, or that there are innumerable other things in _God_, which I can neither _conceive_, nor in the least _think upon_; for it is of the _very nature_ of an _Infinite_ not to be _apprehendable_ by _me_ who am _finite_. And ’tis sufficient to me to prove this my _Idea_ of _God_ to be the most _true_, the most _clear_, and the most _distinct Idea_ of all those _Ideas_ I have, upon this _account_, that I understand that _God_ is _not to be understood_, and that I judge that whatever I _clearly_ perceive and know _Implys_ any _perfection_, as also perhaps other innumerable _perfections_, which I am ignorant of, are in _God_ either _formally_ or _eminently_.

10analysis as I am within Rousseau’s text. Just as Rousseau drew upon a language that was already there—and which is found to be somewhat our own, thus assuring us a certain minimal readability of French literature—in the same way we operate today within a certain network of significations marked by psychoanalytic theory, even if we do not master it and even if we are assured of ¶ never being able to master it perfectly. ¶ But it is for another reason that this is not even a somewhat inarticulate psychoanalysis of Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Such a psychoanalysis is already obliged to have located all the structures of appurtenance within Rousseau’s text, all that is not unique to it— by reason of the encompassing power and the already-thereness of the language or of the culture—all that could be inhabited rather

11<bos>With the tu (thou) and vous (you) we have it. ¶ Ch. ¶ Melman -1 beg your pardon! ¶ The vous seems to me of an essential- ly different order, because the vous respects the plural character of the sub- ject whatever it may be, refuses in a way to grant him a sort of absolute identity that I might claim to grasp by the tu. ¶ When I tutoie him I do not leave him any access to division. ¶ While the vous, on the contrary, bears wit- ness to the fact that I perfectly well respect that eventually, with respect to the way I address him, to what I am saying to him, he is on his quant-a-soi and that with respect to his own statement, he can himself be divided. ¶ Therefore the subtle handling in French of the tu and the vous, I think that family existence

12Japanese mythology as being built upon fabrications. ¶ By focusing on a mythological god which founded a "sacred race" ( shinsŏng chongjok), Korean nationalist historiography seeks to portray ancient Korea as a golden age of "gods and heroes" where Korea's cultural achievements rivaled those of China and Japan. Accordingly, Shin Chaeho elevated Dangun to play a similar role as did the Yellow Emperor in China and which Amaterasu does in Japan. Choe Nam-seon, according to his Purham culture theory, places Dangun even above the Chinese and Japanese emperors, because those rulers were supposedly Shamanistic rulers of the ancient Korean "Părk" tradition. The Dangun story also lends credence to claims that Korean heritage is over 5000 years old. According to Hyung Il Pai, the popularity of Dangun studies can be said to "reflect the progressively ultra-nationalistic trend

13I had something to say or write, were that which was furthest from me. I never had any ideas, and two short books, each seventy pages long, are about this profound, inveterate, endemic absence of any idea. These books are l’Ombilic des limbes and le Pése-nerfs.”*° The consciousness of having something to say as the consciousness of nothing: this is not the poorest, but the most oppressed of conscious- nesses.

But I must of necessity conclude that because _I am_, and because I have an _Idea_ of a _Being most perfect_, that is, of _God_, it evidently follows that _there is a God_. ¶ * Now it only remains for me to examine, how I have received this _Idea_ of _God_. For I have neither received it by _means_ of _my Senses_, neither comes it to me _without_ my _Forethought_, as the _Ideas_ of _sensible_ things use to do, when such things _Work_ on the Organs of my _Sense_, or at least _seem_ so

15the German of Prague, Black English, and Quebecois. But with rare exceptions, the interpretation of the linguists has been rather malevolent, invoking a consubstantial poverty and preciosity. The alleged poverty is in fact a restriction of constants and the overload an extension of variations functioning to deploy a continuum sweeping up all components. The poverty is not a lack but a void or ellipsis allowing one to sidestep a constant instead of tackling it head on, or to approach it from above or below instead of positioning oneself within it. And the overload is not a rhetorical figure, a metaphor, or symbolic structure; it is a mobile paraphrase bearing witness to the unlocalized presence of an indirect discourse at the heart of every statement. From both sides we see a rejection of reference points, a dissolution of constant form in favor of differences in dynamic. The closer a language gets to this state, the closer it comes not only to a system of musical notation, but also

She doesn't pluck them into submission. **Hair:** Very dark brown, nearly black, long — past her shoulders, closer to mid-back. Wavy, not quite curly, with a mind of its own. Usually worn loose or half-pulled back messily. A few strands always escaping across her face. **Build:** Slender but not fragile. Small-breasted, narrow-hipped, but with expressive hands that are always moving. Long fingers. No rings except one — a thin silver band on her right hand, worn smooth. **Style:** Simple, dark colors. Tonight: a black cashmere sweater, slightly oversized, sleeves falling past her wrists. A thin gold chain disappearing beneath the neckline. No visible makeup, or so little it looks like none.
