Seven Kinds of Land
It is written, “And the land,” since the land is one of seven lands below. In that place are the children of Cain’s children because once he was expelled from the face of the earth, he went down there, produced offspring, and his mind was confused there, meaning that he did not know anything. It is a doubled land, doubled with darkness and light.
ZAT are incorporated in one another, and in each there are seven Sefirot HGT NHYM, which are also found in Malchut. In the lower land there are seven lands, as well: Earth, Land, Arka [Earth in Aramaic], Valley, Oblivion, Aridity, and Universe. Our earth is Universe, the highest among the seven lands. Arka is the third among the seven lands (Rashbi, Zohar for All, “Heaven and Earth”).
Question: We know that “earth – Eretz” comes from the word “Ratzon – desire.” What are these seven kinds of desires?
Answer: These are the seven symbols that represent the earth. According to what kind of power we want to distinguish, is what we call it.
Question: Should I discover these seven kinds of desires in myself?
Answer: No, we are not dealing with this. The study of Kabbalah touches on this a little, but, in general, we do not operate with these names.
Question: So when a person enters spirituality, one discovers such parts in his or her desire and corrects them?
Answer: Yes, but those are already high degrees.
