The Prism Ship
"According to ancient Kabbalists, reality is composed of 10 dimensions. The
Kabbalist refers to these 10 dimensions as Ten Sephiroth, meaning ́ten
emanationsî of Light.
The structure of the 10 Sephiroth acts as a prism that refracts the Light into various frequencies giving rise to the diversity that composes the entire spectrum of creation."
"In the language of earlier Kabbalistic writers the sephiroth represented ten primeval emanations of God, ten focii through which the energy of a hidden, absolute and unknown Godhead (En Soph) propagated throughout the creation, like white light passing through a prism. The sephiroth can be interpreted as aspects of God, as states of consciousness, or as nodes akin to the Chakras in the occult anatomy of a human being."
The ultimate nature of God is neither known nor manifest to us."
Sometimes God Hides
"but just as light can be passed through a prism to produce a rainbow of colours,
so God manifests in the creation as ten divine lights or emanations, usually referred to as sephiroth."
