Olam HaNekudim – the principle of conception

Note: To enlarge the images, just click on them
Here are a few reflections about the word Olam HaNekudim, the "world of points":
From my point of view, the concept of Olam HaNekudim, describes the principle of "conception of creation".

Before it comes to the next step of the creation, the laws of the coming world(Olam Haba) must "mature", i.e. reach a valid state. This maturing process is described in the Kabbalah as Olam HaNekudim. Whereas the "points"(Nekudim) represent basic principles of creation itself, such as natural constants.

The maturation process is then completed as soon as these nature constants(points) have a meaningful and therefore valid relation to each other. If this is reached, the next stage of the creation begins. This is always marked with a break of the vessels(symmetry break or mutation), which leads to a decline of the old world with its old laws(vessels), from whose shards(Qliphots) the "new world" is created.

Here are a few examples of where I would place the principle of Olam HaNekudim:

Origin of matter at the big bang:














The "break of the vessels" corresponds to the moment where the big bang begins, whereby the pre-cosmic world with its laws goes into ruins and from its shards(Qliphot) the matter arises.

Formation of the chemical elements during stellar fusion:

 

 

 

 

 

 





The "break of the vessels" corresponds to the moment where the star ends in a supernova, and thereby its inner world goes into debris. The debris(~Qliphots) are then distributed in the form of new chemical elements in the surrounding space. The building material for the Jacob's ladder is produced here.

Origin of life on earth
Whereby I cannot speak here anymore of a "break of the vessels", but rather about a repair of it. I.e. with the emergence of life the process of Tikkun Olam("repair of the world") began.

The building materials and tools are now ready. Jacob now starts building the first rung of his ladder. As the picture below shows, the development direction of Ein Sof and his Qliphot(matter) now changes. It serves now the construction of life.

A cross section through planet earth:






The importance of Tzimtzum(condensation) and Jetzira(forming) in creation:

As is can be seen, the process of Tzimtzum plays a central role here again.

Before the big bang, either:

  • A primordial monopole forms --> Monopole-Thesis
  • or a sufficiently strong asymmetry in a virtual quantum world arises --> conventional big bang thesis

In order for star fusion to take place:

  • Self-gravity of hydrogen must form a star

In order for life to emerge: 

  • Self-gravity of chemical elements must form a rock-planet

Also the principle of forming is clearly visible in each act of creation. Which means that creation is in close contact with gravity. For biological creation this means, that (higher-)developed life is bound to its planet of origin.
