The Essence Of Chassidus / Jewish Mysticism Boils Down To The Following Point

All is really God
Everything else consists of three dimensions – soul (its perception of self, of its environment around it, as well as its innate loves and fears) – universe (the “space” in which things exists) – and time (past present and future – sequence.)
So, the infinite loving creator decided one bright “morning” to do good, hence he created infinite universe above us that result in a diminution, to the extent of complete concealment of his existence! in order to create us, (in essence part of his soul!) in bodies, in our dark universe, where the time space continuum conceals him.
Our greatest delight is in overcoming our Yetzer Hara (negative desires) in favor of our Divine soul, for in so doing, we are the unique being who can grow.
