CREATION The maagid teaches us something remarkable – to begin, we know the letter Yud is the center (as we said in the last saying) now the letter Yud is the first of the Divine name – now the point of the Yud has a small point – this represents that all comes for the pleasure of God (for without having a pleasurable benefit from creation he wouldn’t have been motivated – for there is no action without either the desire for pleasure or the fear of pain, and as God cannot have pain hence the desire is for pleasure) now from this pleasure is formed the fundamental desire (namely, a world in which people would choose what’s right) and from this idea (called chochmah) it went into binah – namely all the details to make that happen
