"In the beginning G‑d created the heaven and the earth…G‑d's spirit moved on the water's surface… G‑d said 'let there be light' and light came into existence.”
(English translation of CHABAD website.)
Let there be Light!
From the teachings of holy Arizal....<In the Purification degrees of attributes> "in his isolation...Ari managed to obtain the 21 high attributes of the soul...among the attributes, we have: being lenient with his friends..." [Toldot Rabi Yitschac Luria Ashkenazi book, page 73].
The Divine sparks in each letter amd words, they give life to things, once spoken, that is eternal! 'So, anything you are going to say, think 10 times before pronouncing it to the Universe, to people, some words as they are expressed, may sound like something that gives life or totally demotivating, even when our proposal is to help, as human beings, sometimes, We are bound to err on the side of our best intentions, as Rebbe Nachman teaches, it is a great mitzvah to be Happy always. In this it is good to make someone happy, to direct them to HaShem. By Gilson Sasson.
The Ari’s students listened to the Maharshal’s explanation and then Rabbi Chaim Vital opened his mouth and just said the first verse of the Torah: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” At that moment, the Maharshal suddenly felt and saw that the heavens were created anew and the earth was created anew (as will be the case when the Mashiach comes – there will be new heavens and a new earth). The Maharshal understood that the power of the Torah of the student of the Ari was much greater than his own power. When he spoke, nothing was created, but when the student said just one verse, a new heaven and earth were created.
