We study
the order of descent of the Higher Forces directed to
the revelation of the Creator’s Force
to a person.
The law of the particular:
Even before the common revelation
of the Upper Force to the whole of humanity,
there are a few chosen individuals
who are able to reach this state.
The law of the general:
At the end of its development,
the whole of humanity
must come to the revelation
of the Upper Governing Force,
and completely attain it.
Studying a path of attaining the Creator, we will explore “the order of descent of the worlds” from above downwards, that is, from the World of Infinity to this world, as well as “attainment of the Upper Force” from below upwards, by climbing the steps that were formed by the descent of the worlds.
Attainment of the Governing Force
is gradual and sensed in our feelings, depending on the correction.
The Upper Force has to be gradually attained according to the laws established by its descent from above downward.
Everything is revealed from above downwards in the parallel worlds, and these worlds differ only in their material, quality of desire.
However,
the objects and forms are the same as an imprint of a seal.
All the details of the Upper World, (the roots)
are reflected in our world, (branches).
A root controls its branch in everything.
The language of branches was created
based on the connection of each branch in our world
with its root in the Upper World.
However, this language can be understood only by those who feel the root.
Aspiration to attain
the Upper Force
causes the Light to shine from the root to the branch,
thus correcting the branch to the degree of the root.

In a very simple way
Take a point of reference
there is a root for the creature as a whole and there is a root for each part in particular.
There is a development from this root
when it moves away
and subsequently returns to its root.
And our study was assisted through this language of roots and branches that comes to us from our teachers, who have gone through such a process. Meaning
Back to the root.
This process is called The Correction of Creation
and it is altogether the subject of study
that concerns us.
But let’s remember that we are looking at the Purpose of Creation.
The Language of the Wisdown Is a Language of Branches – Baal HaSulam
This means that the branches indicate their roots,
being their molds that necessarily exist in the upper world.
This is because there is nothing in the reality of the lower world
that does not stem from its superior world.
As with the seal and the imprint,
the root in the upper world compels its branch in the lower one
to reveal its entire form and attribute,
as our sages said, the fortune in the world above,
related to the grass in the world below,
strikes that grass and
forces it to complete its growth.
Because of this,
each branch of this world
well defines its mold
situated in the higher world.
