Accordingly, we should ask, “Why did He create the worlds, restriction after restriction down to this murky world, and clothed the souls in the murky bodies of this world? (Baal HaSulam, “Introduction to the Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah“)

Question: Was our reality, with our murky bodies, part of the initial plan of the Creator?

Answer: When creating our reality, the Creator envisioned our corrected state, not the form in which we initially exist.

Therefore we must understand the work before us, what we need to do, and what we must achieve.

Question: How is the quality of Adam manifested, which the whole ten should strive to hold onto?

Answer: That quality is only revealed in the world of Atzilut.
