The Tree of Life Symbol
Tree of Life - The Most Sacred Geometry Symbol
The Tree of Life is one of the
most familiar of the Sacred Geometry Symbols. The structure of the Tree of Life is connected to the
sacred teachings of the Jewish
Kabbalah but can be seen 3,000 years earlier in Egypt. It is
possible to see the Tree of Life
structure in many places around the conscious universe. The structure
is represented in nature and relates to the Flower of Life.
The Tree of Life and Seed of Life
are products of the same likeness; it
is simply the centers of the circles of the Flower of Life and the Seed
of Life.
The Kabbalah Tree of Life is a
representation of the thirty-two paths comprised of the ten sefirot and
the twenty-two paths through which they run. The Tree of Life describes
the descent of the divine into the manifest world, and methods by which
the divine union may be attained in this life. It can be viewed as a map of the human psyche, and of the
workings of creation, both manifest and not. It is important to realize
that the pure nature of divinity is unity, and
that the seemingly separate aspects or emanations exist only in view of
the emanated, living in a state of illusory separation.
The names and numbers of the ten sefirot are given in order below.
1 - Kether (Crown) or Kether
Elyon (Supreme Crown)
2 - Chokmah (Wisdom)
3 - Binah (Understanding or
Intelligence)
4 - Chesed (Mercy or Grace) or
Gedullah (Greatness)
5 - Geburah (Severity or
Power), Din (Judgement) or Pahad (Fear)
6 - Tifereth (Beauty) or
Rahamim (Mercy)
7 - Netsach (Victory or
Constancy)
8 - Hod (Glory or Majesty)
9 - Yesod (Foundation) or
Tsedek (Justice)
10 - Malkuth (Kingdom) or
Shekhinah (Divine Immanence)
Tree of Life and the Struggle Between Light and Darkness
To help us understand the importance of the Tree of Life, a story can be told
that characterizes the struggle between light and darkness:
On the light side the archangel
Michael and on the dark side Satan,
who abandoned the creator to create a different reality of his own (if
you reverse the name SATAN in the Hebrew language you will get the word
natash which means-abandoned in Hebrew). Satan (also known as LUCIFER which means THE BRIGHT AND SHINING ONE since he
was the most magnificent and brilliant angle ever created), was aware
of all the secrets of the creation and the Flower of Life. The first
thing he did was to take the construction of the Egg of Life and spin
it into a different point of view or perception instead of the star
tetrahedron point of view, which can be derived from this shape (check
out our explanation about the Flower of Life). This procedure changed
our perception of reality.
Satan repeated the process of creation out of the great void but
instead of copying the actions of the creator, he changed the process
of creation out of the great void. Instead of repeating God's creation
and creating the seed of life structure, and creating one sphere at a
time in a vortex motion, he divided spirit into two; creating two
centers (See diagram 2-2C). In this way there are two centers instead
of one.
LIGHT and DARKNESS
There is no vortex motion of creating one sphere at a time; instead
there is only a duplication process just like cell division only
without a certain order or shape. Unlike GOD'S creation which can be
seen in the embryo cell division, which provides perfect shapes during
the cellular mitosis through the different stages of development. This
is the difference between LIGHT and DARKNESS. Light is order, the
cosmic laws of creation, while darkness is chaos and death.
Illusion Reality
This action created reality that is separated from that of the creator.
This version of reality is an illusion. It is a reality where unity is
unseen between that which exists and all that happens, thus
experiencing reality as good and evil. Therefore one does not feel real
love just the use of the intellect.
Tree of Life vs. Tree of Knowledge
In the Bible there is a description of the Tree of Knowledge (Satan's
creation) and the Tree of Life (God's original reality). "The Tree of
Life is in the garden and the Tree of Knowledge good and evil". If one
tries to draw the Tree of Life upon Satan's dual Flower of Life he will
find it impossible as there is no compatibility between them.
Tree of Life Pendant
The pendant of the Tree of Life
forms the key to God's original
creation. The pendant's size itself fits exactly to the size of the
Seed of Life and the Flower of Life, and can be used as a sign of unity
and love as each structure together creates a perfect match. The Tree
of Life symbolizes the true existence of God's creation, the only
reality to enable the fulfillment of ones destiny and true potential.
