Tzimtzum...

 "God forming an empty space" 
Tzimtzum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

 Symbolic art is a universal cultural phenomenon. The symbolic significance that people attribute to external objects may reflect more on him than on the objective reality.

The Tzimtzum




the concentric emanation of worlds, according to Lurianic Kabbalah 
{from R. I. Krakovsky - Kabbalah, the Light of Redemption)


breslev.co.il - Perfection and Imperfection: "You must now understand something that was introduced after the Tzimtzum: this is the Line of Measurement (kav hamiddah, also known as boutzina d'kardunita, the "torch of darkness"). This is the power to institute boundaries, which causes lack and deficiency. For the Tzimtzum brought into being something that did not exist at first -- deficiency."
